This trick was second only to Luo You'er's proficiency in the Wind Seeking Technique, and as her words landed, a violent wind suddenly rolled up on the roof.

However, compared to the ordinary natural wind, the direction of this wind is blowing from the bottom to the top, reaching the sky, as if pulling an invisible curtain wall before the alchemists and the enemy qi-sensitive.

The crossbow bolts shot by the opponent completely lost their accuracy under the influence of the willow whisking technique, and even the lowest trajectory was ten feet away from them.

At the same time, Xia Fan also prepared his own magic.

Since Ning Wanjun's experience was that "just find a way to apply the spell to the enemy", he decided to test the water with the improved streamer technique with the longest strike range.

Pinching the copper wire pendant and the circuit rune in his hand, Xia Fan silently recited the name of the spell to a black-clothed ninja who was only thirty steps away from him.

Extremely bright electric light burst out from between his fingers and penetrated the other person's body.

But surprisingly, it did not end there, but continued to rush towards the crossbowmen in the rear, and appeared on the second and third people in succession.

Xia Fan also felt that the qi in his body was rapidly decreasing.

It wasn't until more than half of the qi was consumed that the electric light crackled twice, turned from purple to blue, and then disappeared into the air.

There were as many as six or seven people who had collapsed from the roof, and the black-clothed ninja who bore the brunt of the roof was even more smoking—he wasn't unprepared, at least when he was hit by the lightning, he could see that the figure was obviously misaligned, probably a defensive technique such as a stand-in technique, but it still couldn't save his life.

This seismic technique made everyone stand on the spot.

In fact, Xia Fan himself was quite surprised.

He had never expected such an amazing effect when the improved Streamer Technique was fully cast.

Could it be that opponents like to hide a lot of metal props in their clothes, such as darts and daggers, so that the excess current will continue to look for the next release point?

It's just that it's too much gas consumed.

However, at the moment of the battle, he could not expose this to the enemy, so he took out a talisman from his pocket.

And the other party's reaction was also extremely fast, and after shouting twice, he jumped directly from the roof and disappeared into the long street.

"Are they—ran away?" Xia Fan was slightly stunned.

"Brother Xia, you've made too fast progress in this seismic technique, haven't you?" Wei Wushuang smacked his mouth in disbelief, "The Streamer Technique can also exert such power, you really have a talent for magic!"

"I think...... This shouldn't be a problem that the heavens can explain, right?" Luo You'er muttered in a low voice, "The Luo family has a lot of geniuses, but it's the first time I've seen a thief like a thief." ”

"Ahem, now is not the time to talk about this, focus on dealing with the enemy first. Xia Fan hurriedly diverted the topic, "The people below are still fighting." ”

That being said, when the defensive line on the roof collapsed, there was no suspense in the battle.

More archers climbed the houses on both sides of the street and fired downward under the cover of the alchemists, and after more than half of the casualties, the resistance of the blocking team was completely broken, and they began to scramble to flee to the north. And Ning Wanjun covered up all the way, and I don't know how many died in the stampede.

......

In front of the granary of Jinxia Castle, Hojo Saku is arranging the last garrison line.

The order given to him from above was to ensure that the troops held the place until all the food was moved, and there was no room for error. With the loss of resistance from Kasumi City, the mission sounded easy, but the news that Makushinobu brought back made things change.

An army that did not belong to the government entered Jinxia City from the West Gate.

They did not use the military to take risks, and they did not even hide their intentions, not only holding high the banner and swaggering all the way through the city, but also evacuating the local residents by the way.

Judging from the flags displayed by the other party, this team belongs to Princess Quang Binh and the Privy Council, but the information obtained from the An family does not mention the possibility of an army in these two.

If this is not a makeshift force, then there must be something wrong with An Jia's intelligence.

But now is not the time to pass the buck.

Just in case, Hojo immediately brought in two artillery teams to strengthen the defensive line - after all, the opponent has a home advantage, and it is easy to form a numerical suppression in a small area.

The lion will also do his best to fight the rabbit, which is also a proverb he admires very much.

"My lord, Sakurai's blocking team has suffered heavy losses and has retreated to its position. At this time, one of his subordinates brought news from the front.

"So fast?" Hojo Zo couldn't help but be a little surprised - the failure of this team was not unexpected, or the purpose of Sakurai to lead the team was to slow down the opponent's advance and buy time for himself to set up his position. After all, the difference in numbers between the two sides is huge, and it is difficult to defeat the opponent head-on. But even so, there are more than four shogunin in the team, as well as a large number of crossbowmen, which should make the enemy suffer a little, so that they dare not bury their heads in the advance again.

In terms of will to fight, Hojo had full confidence in his troops.

Even if they die in battle, they will never surrender.

"The enemy has a large number of cultivators, and we are caught off guard!, and ......" his subordinates hesitated for a while, "It is reported that there may be a Qiguo Guard-level Fang Shi among the other party!"

"What did you say?" Hojo said, "What about the spell he used? It can't be a detachment, right?"

According to the An family, none of the monks who can ascend to the third rank are easy to deal with, and cultivators at this level have been able to integrate one or more techniques and give them new characteristics, some of which can even be described as unpredictable.

He glanced at the gunpowder bag at the back of the position, if the other party was good at detachment......

"My lord, it seems to be a seismic technique. ”

Is it related to thunder and lightning, Hojo Sasa breathed a sigh of relief.

This category is absolutely restrained against evil spirits, and it is also very powerful to slash people, but it is not good at long-distance combat, let alone let your own ammunition suddenly explode.

Although he had already made preparations to prevent the Departure Magician, and the gunpowder box had also been blast-proof, it was better not to encounter it.

Artillery, on the other hand, is the best weapon to suppress close-range magic.

It was only considering that the strength shown by the opponent was somewhat unexpected, and Hojo decided to transfer two more artillery teams from the rear to support the granary.

In this way, even if the enemy is lucky enough to break through the position, they can immediately organize a counterattack and retake the granary.

......

"I knew you were going to be fine. ”

Ning Wanjun threw the slippery spear to Qiu Yue and walked in front of Xia Fan.

After a battle, the princess was covered in the blood of the enemy, and the white robe was now mixed with the red cloak, and it was difficult to distinguish between them.

Xia Fan noticed that her breathing was slightly short.

"Enemy...... Isn't it easy to deal with?"

"It can be described as tenacious," Ning Wanjun calmed down, "After I pierced them, they still thought about using their bodies to restrict my movements, and they could be regarded as an elite squad if they were placed at the border." If you hadn't taken advantage of the roof early, we would have paid more. ”

So as a princess of Quang Binh, it's better not to get involved in such high-risk things.

Although Xia Fan wanted to say this, he took it back when the words came to his lips, because he saw that the princess's eyes not only did not have the slightest tiredness, but instead flashed with a hot look.
