Chapter 25: The Gap in Strength
It was completely dark, the sky was full of stars, and a gibbous moon slowly rose from the east. However, the night was not peaceful.
Rob City's monster defense battle had been going on for nearly two hours, and with both Suke and Lista using their strength, the battle had heated up.
With the advantage of numbers, the monsters carried out a comprehensive siege on the 2.6-kilometer-long defensive line of Rob City, although Su Ke and Lista were strong, but they also took care of one and the other, and could not take care of the four sides.
The crisis here has just been resolved, but less than five minutes later, it will be attacked by monsters on the city wall again, more than 5,000 knights have lost one or two, the body fluids of monsters and human blood are mixed together, scattered everywhere, stumps and broken arms and internal organs and meat can be seen everywhere.
Torches were erected on the walls, and the flames reflected the faces of the knights, and the faces "decorated" with blood and filth all revealed the heroic spirit of seeing death as home, and the firm determination to refuse to give up even when they were hoarse.
"The city is here, and the knights are fearless of life and death, turning the tide, and fighting here. Handel raised the knight's sword in his hand and roared loudly to cheer up the knights.
Suke still fought valiantly on the west side of the city, his body wrapped in orange flames, like a god of fire, and around him was a swarm of giant ants.
These giant ants are already a little different from before, their entire body is twice the size of ordinary giant ants, and the most obvious difference is that their heads are extremely large, giving people an extremely incongruous feeling.
As the name suggests, these ants are born to protect the colony, and their jaws are developed to crush hard food and easily tear enemies apart.
Su Ke was heavily surrounded by these giant ice ants, and his ordinary slashing moves could not cause any damage to them at all, and only by constantly using his special move "Red Lotus Flame Blasting Sword" could he slash them.
"Red Lotus Burst Flame Sword. Su Ke unleashed a powerful move again, accompanied by a loud blasting sound, a burst of fire illuminated everything around him, and the scorching fire killed all the soldiers who pounced on him, but he was already a little exhausted, and the continuous high-intensity combat made him consume a lot, and since he began to enter the battlefield to now, he has been fighting for more than an hour, and he has not even drunk a sip of water.
"Damn brutes, watch me dismantle you to pieces. After taking a breath, Suke swung the Dawn Moon Greatsword and continued to slash forward.
Lista's side was much quieter, there was no sky-high fire, no crackling sound, and everywhere he went was surprisingly quiet, he was shrouded in a layer of white mist, and the light blue cold light revealed from the white mist, and a human figure could be seen.
From his back stretched out six arm-thick ice crystal chains, the tip of the chain was a sharp spear head, distributed in six directions around Lista's body, these chains were like nimble silver snakes, piercing through the body of the green-haired spider, the cold breath penetrated the body, and the wound quickly froze, quickly harvesting their lives.
Lista's face was as solid as ice, and he walked step by step like a leisurely walk across the eastern side of the 800-meter-long city wall, with corpses behind him.
The pressure on the north side is relatively small, and Lista controls the ice crystal chains distributed around his body, pointing his head forward, still expressionless, and the chains shuttle through the air, piercing the monster to death like a skewer, the whole process is brisk and fast, without a trace of mud and water.
Passing through the north, he came to the western wall of Suke's office, and Suke raised the Dawn Moon Greatsword in both hands and slashed at a huge soldier ant in front of him.
This soldier ant is not a vegetarian either, it opens its jaws wide, bites the giant sword that has been chopped over, and refuses to let go even if it is scorched by the fire.
Seeing this, the other soldiers swarmed up and wanted to completely dismember Su Ke's body.
Su Ke let out a loud cry and the flames around him soared, twisting his waist and swinging his arms, and the huge force drove the soldier ant that bit the giant sword to the death, and swung it in a circle, repelling the soldier ant that pounced on him.
"Damn brute, no play. Suke raised his greatsword and slashed at the head of the ant that had just grabbed it, breaking it in half.
Su Ke slammed his giant sword to the ground, panting heavily, the flames around him had receded, and some of his warm clothes were emitting green smoke, and his face was full of filth and looked a little embarrassed.
The huge soldier ants around him besieged again, and Su Ke was about to react, when he saw six crystal crystal chains pass through with lightning speed, piercing all the huge soldier ants that pounced on him to death.
The chains shook violently in the air, and with a sound of wiping, the corpse of the soldier ant was thrown out of the distance.
"Have you reached the limit?" asked Lista faintly.
Su Ke hadn't relented yet, and said intermittently in rough clothes: "You are really powerful, the battle has lasted for so long, you don't even breathe." ”
"Take a break! Lista's tone was still very light, he wrote something on the city wall with his hand, and the place where his finger swiped flashed with a pale blue shimmer, forming various rune symbols, slowly spreading out and covering the entire wall.
"Is this okay? Four sides, how are you going to keep it?" asked Suke after taking a deep breath.
"The spell has been written, but I can only destroy the miscellaneous soldiers, and after the spell is launched, my mental power will be overdrawn, so I let you rest to deal with the remaining few giant monsters. After Lista finished his unhurried recounting, he took Suke by the shoulders and flew to the city wall with the force of the wind.
The knights are still fighting, never stopping, constantly there are monsters climbing the wall, trying to cross the defense line, in the south because of the lack of Suke and Lista resistance, the monsters also advance a lot, there are constantly lizardmen and bull-headed guards thrown up by the bull-headed beasts, occasionally monsters crash into the barrier that protects Aisha and them, but they are immediately bounced out.
"Why did you come up? Can't you hold on?" Handel asked in distress when he saw Suke and Lista returning, and grabbed their arms. "Do you want me to abandon the people?"
"Mr. Handel need not be in a hurry, what I promised will be done. Lista explained.
When Angel saw Su Ke coming back, she immediately ran out of the barrier, and asked with a concerned face, "Are you okay?"
Suke responded, "I'm fine, don't worry. ”
"The battle isn't over yet! Lista said coldly.
"I ......" An Jie'er was about to refute, but immediately realized that it was indeed her fault, and even Xiao Yueyue was out of protection. "Suke, I'm sorry, it's me who is bad. ”
"It's okay, I'm here!" Suke reassured.
Lista didn't pay any attention to them, and directly used the power of the wind to fly to a position a hundred meters above Rob City, only to see a light blue glimmer in his eyes, and a magic array immediately appeared at his feet.
The magic circle is not large, it is composed of various graphics and strange symbols, and slowly rotates with a light blue light.
The four sides of the city wall suddenly shone brightly, and the runes written on the wall emitted the light blue light of the moon, and then the temperature around them suddenly plummeted, and the white mist instantly enveloped the whole world, but before waiting for two seconds, these white mist slowly fell and formed frost flowers.
"Ice, frozen for thousands of miles. ”
As Lista exhaled, it quickly froze from the four walls, and the ice quickly spread, crawling the entire world as far as the eye could see.
Those monsters didn't even have time to react, and they were instantly frozen in place, forming ice sculptures in different postures, and as far as the eye could see, the whole world was white, and it looked a little gloomy in the night, but it was also very beautiful.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw, they never dreamed that such an unprecedented battle would end in such a way.
After a brief moment of shock, it was replaced by cheers and joy, and the knights raised their weapons one after another, smashing the monster ice sculpture in front of them, and then shouted loudly.
Aisha and An Jie'er were surging in their hearts, looking at all this without exclaiming, even Xiao Yueyue opened her eyes, "It's so beautiful!"
Su Ke couldn't say anything, just stared blankly at all this. I didn't expect that the difference in strength between the same magisters was so big.
Lista slowly floated down from the air, leaning against the guardrail, looking very tired, he was not as optimistic as these people, because of the skills he used, so he understood that the battle was not over yet, those giant monsters were just frozen, and they were not dead.
"It's up to you. Lista whispered, looking a little weak.
"No problem, I'll leave it to me. Suke nodded, and jumped down, trying to slay the behemoths before they broke the ice.
The first is a giant lizard, trapped in the ice, which makes a small cracking sound as it struggles.
Su Ke didn't think about it, his eyes flashed red, and the Yaoyue Giant Sword in his hand instantly ignited a raging fire, and with a burst of shouts, a sword stabbed into the head of the giant lizard.
The giant lizard shook violently, then stopped moving, the ice melted by the flames, and white smoke rose from the zizzle.
Just as Su Ke was about to go to kill the next monster, the frozen giant monsters broke through the ice one after another.
"Oh no, I don't know if he can do it alone. "Lista hasn't recovered yet because of his powerful moves.
The knights were stunned for a moment, but they immediately entered the battle state, and began to operate the ballista to help shoot and kill, those giant lizards had no choice, but the bull-headed giant beasts were not a problem.
Four minotaur beasts fell to the ground one after the other under the fire of the ballista, and three giant lizards were killed by Suke after he tried his best to get his last bit of strength.
Lista looked at all this with a self-deprecating smile: "What a loss to you." ”
