Melinthera also had some doubts on her face, frowned and asked Roddy: "It's a big trouble?" ”

In her impression, Roddy rarely makes this kind of action that represents "distress" and "anxiety", and his state at the moment is obviously encountering an intractable problem, which makes Merin Sera, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, also feel nervous, and the gaze of the giant pupil of the "Demon Gate" has buried the fear brought by the other plane deep in her heart, and she will never forget it.

"We all have to face it, I can only say that I hope my judgment is wrong."

Roddy inhaled deeply, but his gaze was suddenly stunned... Because he saw the "task prompt" that popped up out of nowhere.

【Demonic Calamity】

You sense the demon's movements, but you don't know exactly what you're up against.

Face him, or run, run as far away as possible!

This quest does not give a quest reward or goal to complete, as it is a "random quest" that pops up in a specific area. This kind of task has a very high degree of freedom, and can only roughly guess the direction of the task through a simple description, and the final reward will also be determined according to the difficulty and completion of the task.

Just like now, the "mission description" gives options for "face" and "escape". And you never know which one is simpler, which one is more rewarding, and which one is the most risky.

Roddy frowned and thought about the risk, and choosing to "escape" at the moment must be the safest way. But simply "running away" is not Roddy's style. In the face of any crisis, Roddy will work hard in the direction of holding the "initiative", he thought about the possible consequences of the actions of Dorois and others, and immediately turned to Mai Linsera and said, "Take her back to the hotel!" Prepare for evacuation first. ”

"Okay."

In a brief response, Dorys noticed that her body suddenly felt a little cold, and when she looked down, she found that there was a strange elemental film attached to the surface of her body, and the color of this "elemental film" actually simulated the color of the surrounding walls and furniture.

The next moment, she was gagged by the invisible element, and then the whole person was controlled and floated out of the windowAs soon as she entered the street in the night, the membrane on the surface of her body became pitch black, floating seven or eight meters under the control of Melinthera, and then thrown into the carriage that had long been parked on the side of the road.

I managed to save my life...

That was Doris's last thought before she was stuffed into the crate.

******

"Turn on the highest alert state!"

"The floating tower is fully in the air!"

In the "Colommere" magic tower, Speaker Jeremy looked at the huge ** array with an area of more than ten square meters in front of him, and read out the current combat decision step by step with a solemn gaze.

Constructed by a "prophecy" magister, this circle can be activated to show the current situation in the entire city of Duriel and the surrounding harbors in an energy outline. The dots of light on it represented humans or fishmen, and at this moment the army of blue-gilled fishmen had landed from all four ports, flooding all the docks in almost a single face, and rushing towards the city. If it weren't for the city walls that activated the magic circle and the troops that were transferred to block it at key locations, I'm afraid the fishmen would have rushed into the city by now!

But the situation is not rosy now, the scarcity of standing armies, and the limited magic power of mages... No one can say whether these fish-men who suddenly appeared will break through the defense line, so Speaker Jeremy, who is currently commanding the operation, does not look easy.

And with the mages of Durrell City being deployed to the front line, the retreating line of defense has finally slowed down. Among them, the gap pressure with the assistance of the Magister has been significantly reduced, and the advantages of Laciman's ultra-high mage ratio and high-end combat power concentration are immediately highlighted, and the fish people can basically only rely on ** to resist in the face of the mage's "group lethality spell", so when the number of mages reaches a certain percentage, the situation of the war has finally changed.

Behind the two or three hundred ordinary soldiers was the firepower of more than thirty magic apprentices and eight full-fledged magicians. Large-scale spells that are difficult to use on a daily basis are all used here, and the "Wall of Fire" and "Path of Icicles" have caused shocking damage to the Fishman army in the narrow area.

The morale of the defenders of Duriel City, who were originally frightened by the number of fishmen, was greatly boosted, and the shouts overshadowed the mournful cry of the fish-man "Ula Ula", and the soldiers finally began to wave their long knives bravely under the protection of various spell shields, and the blood flowed in an instant...

When the air was filled with the smell of burnt grilled fish, the floating towers around the city of Durrell activated one after another, some of which were originally buried under the water, some embedded in the mountains, and at this moment slowly rose into the air with a humming sound, and then floated towards the four docks.

Hundreds of ballistae on the floating tower began to rain down fire, mixed with lethal and extremely explosive bolts. Because there is no air supremacy, the fishmen who tried to squeeze forward in the rear were swept away by the fire from the air, even if they still kept emerging from the sea, the pressure on the front line was instantly reduced a lot...

Within ten minutes, more than 3,000 fishmen on the pier were killed or wounded as they tried to rush into the city, and the front line was no longer retreating. The ten Magi who arrived at the aid of the six academies were constantly casting spells to kill the fishmen, and the two puppet troops urgently activated by the Mofeng Academy were still three minutes away from arriving on the battlefield, but even so, Speaker Jeremy, who was staring at the magic circle, still frowned deeper and deeper.

Because he never saw the upper limit of the number of fish-man troops.

Neither the detection circle nor the prediction results of the prophecy magister could count how many fishmen were under the surface of the sea. Just as Houdini did not dare to detect the underwater ruins, the ocean is a natural shielding field for mages, shallow and still able to explore, but things fifty meters below the water cannot be detected at all.

If the fish-men rush forward regardless of their lives, no matter how powerful the mages are, they will run out of magic one day, where can they fight with an infinite number of enemies?

"Keep order in the city! The top circle of the Kolölmere Tower is ready to activate for covering fire support! ”

As the Speaker of the Parliament, he was actually gambling at the moment: he had to assume that the number of enemies was limited, so such a battle would have to be fought back with instantaneous mass destruction. Otherwise, if it is simply consumed like this, the strength of the defense line will likely collapse at dawn!

For a long time, Rasiman's war did not involve the capital of Duriel. As a port city, the iconic "floating tower" is actually used to defend against enemy warships, and using it to deal with the fishmen who have landed is really "anti-aircraft guns to fight mosquitoes" and waste resources.

"Start charging, activate fire coverage area lock!"

"Charged!"

"Stabilization Circle Activated!"

"The energy is stable!"

After nearly five minutes of preparation, the circle finally entered a state of readiness, and Speaker Jeremy and the other two councillors pressed their hands on the circle at the same time:

"Energy release!"

In the dark night, the Colommir Tower suddenly released a light, and the aura of light rotated upwards from under the tower, and finally converged at the top of the tower into a bright ball of light buzzing, the ball of light roared out, and after leaving the top of the tower, it flew for two minutes, spanned a distance of five kilometers, and finally landed in the shallow sea outside the harbor...

A popping sound suddenly sounded, and the violent impact and heat directly evaporated countless seawater on the spot. The dazzling white light that bloomed made the city of Duriel in the dark night instantly as bright as day!

The sea surface was instantly filled with broken corpses, and the originally dense crowd of fish outside the defense line here seemed to be cut off by the waist, and most of them were emptied at once, leaving those who were also hit by the shock wave, and the Rasiman defenders who began to continuously release protective enchantments when the light ball appeared, took the opportunity to launch a counter-charge, and instantly recaptured a dock...

However, the bloody battles in the other three places continued, and the Korenmir Tower only began to recharge again after the stabilization circle cooled down for ten minutes...

When the brilliant ball of energy light streaked across the night sky again, Roddy's carriage had just stopped at the back door of the hotel.

The door opened, and Roddy rushed into the hotel first, followed by Mylensella, who was disguised as an elemental.

Roddy, who ran all the way into the hall, didn't say anything, just made a gesture to Davidian, who was standing vigilantly in front of the door, and the latter immediately turned around with a serious face and ran out with a silent gesture to pass on the information, and the originally silent hotel was suddenly full of noisy footsteps in less than a minute.

"First-level combat readiness, abandon useless materials!"

Erwin and Davion respectively led the team to the backyard where the goods were originally stacked, and all kinds of heavy armor and weapons that were packed in wooden boxes were activated one after another, and the soldiers helped each other to put on their equipment as quickly as possible, and then put out the most important materials such as the magic circle stone slab and charging spar in turn, and threw the other messy debris in the corner.

When they appeared in the front hall of the hotel in full armor, the other personnel in the hotel were stunned, and they were originally puzzled by the alarm outside, but now when they saw the metal tower-like image of Erwin and others, they almost thought that this was some kind of "armed coup", so that they didn't need Erwin and others to speak at all, and they ran away...

On the third floor, Akasha, who was standing in front of the window and observing the alarm signals, saw Luo Di suddenly come in, and asked suspiciously, "Is there a situation outside?" ”

"Level 1 combat readiness, ready to fight immediately!"

Roddy rushed to the closet and began to put his gear on his body one by one. Sylvia and Nephi immediately realized that this was not a joke, and without saying a word, they ran back to their rooms.

Akasha didn't talk nonsense, picked up the scepter from the side, and fastened a belt full of potions and scrolls and a small backpack, only to notice Doris, who had been suspended in the air by Merinthra's spell.

"Why did you tie her up?"

Although Roddy had said his plan for the day before leaving, he apparently didn't mention getting Doiris here. Akasha was very disgusted with these Tuk women, but fortunately, Merinthera did not remove the elemental disguise, and if the little priest saw the "vacuum suit" in Dores, it would really be guilty.

"What they cause can be useful when they're in trouble."

Roddy didn't explain much, he was stuffing the arrows into the quiver one by one, and after confirming that the whole body equipment was in the best condition, he switched the tracking technique to "Tracking: Demon", and just glanced at the "map bar" and frowned, because the demonized fishmen had clearly appeared on the periphery of Durrell City, and there were an astonishing number of them!
