Chapter 40: The assault begins
The cannonballs that fell from the sky hit the pre-arranged siege circle, blowing up the rubble and shattering, and the magic power that had been flowing in the circle scattered out under this interference, causing an even more violent explosion.
Dominic, the commander of the Divine City, stood on the periphery of the bombed position in a pitch-black armor, his hands crossed in front of his chest, and there was no joy or anger on his face.
Behind him were twelve sages of various shapes, all of them well-dressed in armor and armed with a variety of weapons. Quietly waiting behind Dominic. Most of these people were warrior saints, and the only two mage saints went to a new location with a group of temple priests to build a siege circle after the destruction of the position. Only Dominica's most important staff mage, Honorio, was still standing beside him.
Behind these saints were more Templar Knights, and although there were people in the Temple of Nature who were unwilling to compromise like AlcalΓ‘ and Roland, most of them were forced by the powerhouses of the Divine City to compromise after all.
Honorio listened intently, as if someone was talking to him through some kind of magic, and then said to Dominic: "The new position is still built, it is on the east side, as long as you give the order, they can start a new attack." β
Dominic waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." β
Honorio opened his mouth and said a few words to the east, but no one around him heard any sound, but in the distant forest, fireballs rose from the ground and flew towards Arano's shield.
Honorio turned to Dominic and said, "This time they saw that we had changed positions, so they should come out and mend the shield." Otherwise, with just two more rounds of such attacks, their shields will not hold out. β
Dominic said: "I don't dare to be interested in how to lay the trap, this is your task, I care about what prey will fall into this trap." β
Honorio chuckled softly, "Don't worry, adults. The Tower of China values this city very much, it is their place of salvation, not only the Sages must come, but also their army must guard against the movement of our army. These people think they have come up with a great idea to break each of them, and they want to blame AlcalΓ‘, but they never think that they are nothing more than a knife in your hand. β
Dominic said: "Therefore, it is the most correct choice to secretly grasp the power of the Shadow Regiment first, and with enough information, we can lead them by the nose." It's just that Miliana was an accident, I didn't expect them to have such a great ability to fight back when they were dying, and five people actually died. I must avenge this revenge. β
At that moment, a man dressed as a Shadow Regiment came up and whispered a few words in Honorio's ear.
Honorio said to Dominic, "The two armies of the kingdom will soon be in their respective places. The armies of the Empire and the southern city-states are also on their way. As long as most of their Sages are killed here, the Tower of China will be in chaos. When the time comes, we just have to watch these secular armies fight to the death with them. β
"It's not enough, all their Sages must die. I have some rubbish among my people, but they are not so easy to kill. Dominic said coldly.
"You'll have the opportunity to do that right away. As Honorio said this, he felt his heart move, and he felt the city shield in front of him suddenly weaken, "My lord, our chance is coming, and they have begun to repair the shield circle." β
Dominic looked from afar, and saw some people coming to the wall, and on closer inspection, it was the two Sword Tower heirs who he had been chasing and killing for days. Together with a few others, they took up a defensive stance on the edge of the shield. Dominic snorted coldly: "These two dog men and women have finally reappeared. β
Honorio took out a staff and muttered it for a moment, then moved it a little forward, only to see a burst of white light burst out and hit the weakest part of the city's shield. The shield seemed to be burned, and a large hole with a diameter of three meters was suddenly opened. The walls and people inside were exposed.
Dominic waved his hand at the Saints and Templars who had been preparing for a long time, and ordered: "The people of the Knights are in front, and the people of the Divine City are behind, rush out of the gap for me!"
ββββββββββββββ
When Mo Yu saw the white light shining on the city wall, he pinched the berserk sword in his hand hard, and slowly walked out of the hole exposed by the shield, Gawain and Lorenzo followed behind her one left and one right, Gawain's secret sword was already unsheathed and suspended in front of him, Lorenzo had also taken out the "Ten Thousand Arrays" and let it float on his side.
On the walls behind them, four mage squads were ready to resonate with their spells, and hundreds of sniper squads were loaded and ready to go.
Hundreds of figures rushed out of the woods in front of them, they were all masters of the Knights of the Templars, each of them shining with fighting energy, rushing towards the gap where the desert rain was at the fastest speed. As they ran, they constantly changed the direction of their travel, curling lines to avoid the bullets in front of them.
The first to strike at the Tower of China were the ordinary guards and the pneumatic cannons on the city walls. Bullets and cannonballs rained down on the Templars. This was followed by a wide range of magic released by the mage class, two groups of slow and weak magic, and the other two groups released a wide range of psychic blasts and ice picks. They tried to slow down the knights' movements, allowing bullets and artillery fire to inflict effective damage on them.
However, none of the Templar knights sent by Dominic were weak, and the leaders were all master level captains and deputy commanders, and behind them were a large number of high-level and middle-level knights. All of them were wrapped in vindictive energy, and they also had various blessing spells cast by the priests of the temple. If these fighters are directly hit by the shells of large-caliber pneumatic guns, they will naturally not be able to resist the power of the shells exploding on their bodies, but if the bullets hit them, the damage caused is relatively limited, as long as they do not hit the head and eyes, they will not cause much damage. Unless you are shocked by magic, and then you are continuously hit by bullets in a stiff time, and the protective body has no time to recover, then you may be seriously injured or killed. As a result, the guns and magic caused some casualties to the men, but most of them still crossed nearly half the distance in a very fast time.
Wang Jiyuan looked ahead with a solemn expression, Maya stood by his side to protect the commander, and the preliminarily restored electric winged silver dragon stood on the wall not far away, ready to pounce at any time.
Maya said, "The current firepower is not enough to stop them from rushing to the entrance of the cave, although there are no Sages among these people, they will definitely consume a lot of Mo Yu's strength. β
