Chapter 709: Siege (2-in-1)
"Bang bang bang..."
A series of crashing sounds were heard, and the meat balls falling from the sky instantly smashed many houses. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But soon everyone saw that these meat balls were not simply "cannonballs" used to destroy, but strange creatures with ball-like bodies and more than a dozen tentacles!
Their bodies did not shatter after the impact, but slowly stretched out with tenacity, and after a short breath, they actually stood up and moved in all directions, and soon brought a scream and scream...
"Damn, it's the 'offspring' of the 'mother' jet..."
Roddy scolded loudly, because the last thing he wanted to see happened - if it was the kind of "make enough trouble" monster, he would definitely turn around and leave immediately, but the next second he confirmed that it was the "mother" beast, he immediately changed his mind and immediately shouted to Houdini: "Can't go! We must kill him immediately, otherwise Lasiman and even this continent will probably be doomed!"
This is not a joke, the "mother" giant beast is an amphibious terrifying existence, who knows if it will cross the ocean and attack Evta after it develops into a "mother nest"? At this time, the dialect of the entire Raciman, I'm afraid only Roddy knows how to completely destroy this amazing monster, he must not let a guy who can destroy the continent grow up wantonly.
"What then?"
Houdini felt he didn't have enough of his head - was Roddy going to lead the team to take out the creature?
"We're useless, you have to get in touch with those council magicians right away!" Roddy's tone was categorical, "If they're willing to listen to me, there's still a chance to solve it!"
The rest of the sentence Roddy didn't say, but Houdini could understand... So he didn't talk nonsense, and immediately got down and planned to rush to the "Cologmere" magic tower.
Naturally, Roddy would not let him run to the city full of monsters alone, and decisively ordered: "All follow! Escort Houdini! Kill all monsters that come close!"
He didn't dare to rush back at this time because he was burned out - only those who really understood this kind of demon understood that the "mother" looked terrible, but in fact, now was the time when the other party was at its weakest!
Roshan's body represents a huge burden, and the attack of the tentacles is only useful if it is close, as long as it is far away, it is "beyond the reach of the whip", and if you want to attack at a distance of more than 500 meters, you must pay a great price. And those "descendants" are not very powerful combat units, they are all "energy harvesters" of level 20 or above... Ordinary people can't deal with it, but an elite team like Roddy is completely unafraid!
In a nutshell: before the other party has completely developed into a truly powerful "brood", it is not difficult for Roddy to severely damage or even kill it.
But not everyone can make decisions as calmly as Roddy. Everyone, including Speaker Jeremy, was shocked by the terrifying size of the ancient sea beast, and they were at a loss for a while.
The team that fled also included the mages who had just gathered. Witnessing the sight of hundreds of people being slapped into meat sauce, they no longer have the courage to attack the "Roshan" behind them, and only know to run towards the magic tower like they are playing with their lives, which is the only safe place for mages to have the protection of the enchantment.
And the "Colommere" magic tower did not live up to their expectations, after a brief hesitation, Speaker Jeremy overrode the public opinion, and immediately let the magic tower aim at the giant beast in the distance, and launched the fourth "energy missile"...
The "ball of light", which was not flying fast, flew straight towards the upper body of the giant beast, as if sensing the threat, and the latter suddenly stretched out a large tentacle when the "ball of light" approached, and struck the "ball of light" one step ahead, causing it to explode on the spot - in the flesh and blood, the tentacles of the giant beast were all turned into slag, but after the light of the explosion subsided, people found that the surface of its body was unharmed!
"Speaker, the cooldown circle needs to be replaced!"
"There is a crack in the magic crystal stabilization circle, and it needs to be repaired urgently!"
Four consecutive powerful bombardments with short intervals have affected the core circle of "Colummere". As a result, Jeremy had to ask the mages to maintain and replace the circle immediately. But the giant beast in front of him seemed to be completely enraged by this blow, and the countless holes on the surface of its body were once again exposed, and it spat out nearly a thousand "child bodies" for the second time!
The "descendants" who roared and landed in the inner part of the city, together with the fish people who had rushed in, instantly brought a large amount of chaos. These tentacled monsters can almost ignore the terrain, quickly climbing over buildings and killing all humans in their sight - the troops trying to escape the fish-men behind them have to face these monsters that are more than two meters tall and difficult for even mages to deal with because of their strange attacks...
In an instant, the retreating mage team was held back by these "descendants", and although the powerful mages quickly blasted a way out, it was clear that more people were caught in a bitter battle because of their appearance.
In the face of such a threat, the "Cologmere" magic tower is helpless at the moment. Because the tower's most powerful long-range attack circle had a problem, it was only possible to use other small circles to sweep the enemies within a hundred meters of the tower's body at the moment, which was a drop in the bucket compared to the threat faced by the entire city of Durrell.
What's even more terrifying is that Jeremy and other mages have already seen from the magic circle in front of them... The beast was slowly moving forward.
If the other party is allowed to approach the "Cologmere" magic tower, then the consequences will be unimaginable!
But now the question is: how can you repel such a big guy?
Rasiman was able to have today, naturally because of the hard work of the mages. The entire country has not lost its original blood and combat effectiveness until now, so Speaker Jeremy immediately made a decision to "respond to the battle" - the mage has the pride of the mage, since the magic tower magic circle does not turn, it is purely dependent on the power of the high-level mages to shake it!
"Hurry up and change the magic circle, gather all the magisters who can be there, and go to the top of the tower!"
The entire city of Durrell was in chaos at the moment. Luckily, though, neither the "offspring" nor the crazy fish-people seem to be interested in the humans who are hiding. Most of the targets they attack and kill are "exposed" to their field of vision.
The civilians in the city were not combat units in the first place, and when they heard the screams and the screams of monsters, they instinctively closed the doors and windows and hid in their homes. So the fishmen who couldn't find their target continued to rush into the city, but the "offspring" that was crawling around was not as aimless as the fishmen, and after clearing out the humans who threatened them, they all protruded a hairy organ from under the tentacles, which seemed to have some special sense of smell, and after a few seconds in the air, they would immediately run in a certain direction - and it would not be long before these "descendants" often "roared" Rushing in through the window of a certain building, the huge tentacles rummaged around, and finally pulled out the small magic crystals embedded in the indoor magic circle one by one...
Obviously, these "descendants" all have the same goal. All of them are constantly searching for large and small magic crystals or items with magical powers, and the more efficient individuals have even "swallowed" more than a dozen magic crystals into their mouths. When the objects carried by the "descendants" reach a certain limit, the monsters will stop moving forward and turn in the direction of the "mother".
Such behavior is difficult to observe in the darkness of the night, as the rest of the city is either busy running for their lives, or they are busy dealing with the crisis just like the people in the "Colommere" tower.
Among them, the Eskar country team that had been prepared for a long time was naturally the one who escaped relatively smoothly. If the "mother" in the distance hadn't sprayed the staggering number of "descendants" into the sky, then Evely and the others would not have encountered any enemies at all. But when the monster that fell from the sky landed at the front of the group, they had to stop and raise their staff and weapons to fight...
"Keep going!"
Evely, as the commander of the team, gave a loud order to the chief of the guard. But anyone could hear the unconcealed trills in her words - in fact, everyone was equally scared at this time, and the two-hundred-meter-high monster behind her pressed against her chest like a nightmare, making it difficult to breathe.
And when facing the two or three meters tall "sub-body", the soldiers of the Eskar country were a little dazed, and they didn't know how to fight for a while. They rushed forward and tried to slash each other with their weapons, but this monster relied on the advantage of its body and tentacles to knock away four approaching soldiers with a single look, and at the same time crushed forward, pressing the guard captain who couldn't dodge under him on the spot, and the hidden mouthpiece "clicked" and bit the other party into several pieces in a few bites...
Listening to the abrupt screams of the chief of the guards, the soldiers couldn't help but panic. However, as the magic circle disk in Eveli's hand released the "aura of suppression", the monster immediately screamed and was flattened to the ground by an invisible force - the surrounding soldiers quickly rushed up when they saw the opportunity, and swung their weapons desperately, cutting the "offspring" into pieces of wriggling flesh.
The "descendants" who tried to struggle were never able to escape the influence of Evely's circle, and were eventually hacked to death. But that didn't stop the fear from spreading in the hearts of the Tukhs... The surrounding dark buildings, the sound of Suosuo kept coming, and Evely shouted orders the soldiers to gather and retreat, but they didn't go far when another "child" blocked the way of the team...
According to the original plan, if the team was caught up by the infected "Fishmen", Miranda could use "Dispel" to drive the Fishmen away. After all, these fish-men have always been mentally affected guys, and using this spirit system to dispel them is a very effective choice.
But who would have thought that what he was facing now was the "subgeny" ejected by the giant beast under the sea - this kind of guy obviously has an independent mind, and it is fundamentally different from the fish-man.
Evely could only pray that the battle would end quickly, so she, Miranda, and Jill all used all their resources to attack the "sub-body" that stood in the way. However, as they panted and killed the third monster, a noisy shout of footsteps suddenly came from the street behind them... and the fish-man's characteristic "Ula Ula" call.
"Damn it!"
After burning the "Child" in front of her with the "Pillar of Flame" circle, Evely turned her head and found that the knights of the Bindu Kingdom were fleeing in this direction, followed by a large number of fishmen!
"Miranda, disperse them, we must go now!"
At this time, there was no other way, Evely had to let Milan use the established "trick" - otherwise, if they were caught up and surrounded by fishmen, no one would want to go out.
Miranda immediately grasped the necklace on her chest, and after chanting a series of incantations, her mental fluctuations suddenly spread.
At this time, the Bindu mission, which was being chased by the fishmen, had approached the gasping soldiers of the Eskar Kingdom, led by the little Khan Duke, who held a torch and shouted: "Go north, keep walking! Gather together!
As a nation on horseback, even the lowest-ranking waiters among them have not weak combat effectiveness, and all of them can be called "skilled in swords and horses". Therefore, the cavalry brigade of fifty or sixty men was one of the few in all the missions that could retreat in its entirety.
In the current situation, it is true that only by helping each other can we tide over the difficulties together. Regardless of whether she is familiar with it or not, in the face of those monsters behind, Evely knows that "cooperation" is the only way out. Therefore, she immediately ordered the whole team to move closer to the cavalry of the Bindu Kingdom, although there was also an infantry behind the opponent, but it was clear that the cavalry was more numerous, and the knights were more combative. Their horses and leather armor had a lot of fish-man internal organs and blood splashed on them, and the smell of blood could be described as blowing in their faces.
And just as the two teams were about to converge, Miranda's spell finally worked: the fishmen who had been following closely behind all stopped, and after a brief hesitation, turned their heads and ran in other directions, as if they didn't see the two teams in front of them at all...
"Whew!"
Miranda's eyes widened and she exhaled heavily after making sure that the fish-men at the end of the street were gone, "They're gone!"
"Seize the opportunity and go!"
Evely was also relieved, the leader of the team next to him, Bindu Guo, did not have a mage who knew spiritual spells, so they all thought that it was Miranda's credit, and they all thanked each other, and then expressed their willingness to go north to the city together to take refuge.
Both sides immediately prepared to speed up their flight. But as soon as the team was adjusted, the slate circle in Evely's hand suddenly buzzed, she turned her head to look at it, her face turned pale in an instant, and she immediately said in a loud voice: "Be careful around-"
Before he finished speaking, everyone heard the "crackling" sound of bricks and stones shattering, and the old man beside Duke raised his hand and threw a white stone into the air, which suddenly released a bright light and instantly illuminated the surrounding scenery.
It's a good thing not to look at it, but everyone is scared to the point of numbness: because looking around, there are more than eight "descendants" rushing towards the position of the team in a desperate manner!
