Chapter 6 (Siege)
Early the next morning, there was a light snow in the sky, and a snow-white beginner owl, clutching a roll of parchment in its talons, flew to the magic tower where Xiu Yi and the others were in the slowly falling snowflakes, and flew to the inside of the magic tower from a window on the top floor, and landed on Xiu Yi's arm.
Huey slowly pulled the parchment out from under the owl's talons, then set the owl aside, he opened the parchment roll, and read it.
"What does the command say, will it send troops over to help us break through and return to the headquarters??" Winnie, who was sitting not far from Xiuyi, immediately asked Xiu Yi as soon as she saw the parchment in Xiuyi's hand.
It turned out that last night, this magic tower that Xiu Yi and others were responsible for had been surrounded by many, many demonic beasts, if it weren't for Xiu Yi's soldiers piling up all the corpses of demonic beasts in the tower at the entrance on the first floor, maybe now this magic tower has been occupied by demonic beasts again.
In the face of a large number of demonic beasts, Huey, Winnie, and Raymond were quite helpless, so they had to write to the headquarters where Pamia and the others were located, and the previous owl was the messenger prepared by Raymond for special situations.
"No, the command didn't send troops over, they wanted us to hold out for as long as we could, attract those magical beasts outside the magic tower, so that the pressure on the command could be reduced. Hue shook his head, smiled wryly, and told the brutal truth as he handed the parchment to Winnie and Raymond.
After the two of them glanced at the parchment, they both smiled bitterly, there were only a few sentences on the parchment, which roughly meant that the command was now being attacked by a large group of demonic beasts, and there would be no support for the time being, so let the three squads do their own thing, and delay the demonic beasts for the headquarters as much as possible, so as not to let them support the demonic beasts that are attacking the headquarters.
"Xiuyi, what should we do now??The command can't count on it at all!!" Seeing that the headquarters could no longer rely on it, and he couldn't think of any way, Raymond hurriedly looked at Xiuyi, who was now looking out from the window, hoping that Xiuyi would have some way.
The reason why Raymond thinks this way is because the person who commanded the soldiers to fight before was Xiu Yi, whether it was dealing with the demonic beasts in the tower or blocking the gate of the magic tower with the corpses of the magical beasts, it was a good countermeasure, and in the current situation, only Xiu Yi had a way.
"Among the thirty-three of us, seven are mages, three are archers, and the rest are warriors, and now there are at least four hundred demonic beasts outside, and they are still increasing, although they can't get in, but we can't break through, so now we can only use magic to kill the demonic beasts as much as possible, so let them know that they can't beat us, even if they can't scare them away, they have to be dragged until the command has the ability." ”
Xiuyi's answer made Winnie and Raymond smile bitterly, and they didn't speak anymore, the number of professionals in the three squads was extremely unbalanced, and the number of fighters reached as many as twenty-three, these fighters were only useful when charging into battle or breaking through, and now the breakthrough is to send death, and charging into battle is to find death, it has no effect at all, and it can only delay as much time as possible according to what Xiu Yi said.
After about ten minutes of silence, Xiu Yi slowly walked to the sapphire magic array at the top of the tower, and looked at it carefully, hoping that the blind cat would touch the dead mouse and repair the magic array that drove the magic stone.
To be honest, this magic array is really exquisite, every arc and triangle has been carefully calculated, and there is no mistake at all.
"Xiu Yi, they are going to attack again, are you letting the mages start attacking??" Just as Xiu Yi was observing the magic array, Raymond suddenly ran over in a hurry and asked Xiu Yi in front of the magic array.
"Tell them that when attacking, they must leave more than half of their mana behind to deal with emergencies!!!" Xiu Yi replied with a reply, then walked to the edge of the top of the tower, looked at the demonic beasts on the ground, and began to tilt the furious fireball technique.
At the same time, the headquarters of the Combined Army, located on a peak in the snowy mountains of Monte, Pamia and Fuinata were sitting on the highest point in the castle of the headquarters.
"All the magicians cast the magic with the largest attack area!!The priests cast the highest level of magic!!Don't let your fellow citizens who are trapped elsewhere die in vain!!" Fuinata yelled hoarsely at the mages and priests who were desperately leaning magic and magic on the walls.
There are a thousand mages, priests, and archers on the city wall, desperately attacking outside the city wall, there are countless magical beasts, different varieties, different levels of water magical beasts are, but it is not easy to exception are all water magical beasts, although these water magical beasts are very unsuitable for attacking the city, but there are countless numbers, which makes the pressure on the command extremely great.
"My mana has already started to be overdrawn!!" "Where are the arrows!?" "The arrows are running out!!Hurry up and send them over!!" Such shouts came and went one after another on the city wall, and in such shouts, the most anxious were none other than the two commanders.
"Archbishop Vendares, aren't you ready for the magic yet??The demonic beasts are about to pile up on the city wall with their bodies!!" Looking at the mages on the city wall, one after another falling due to mana overdraft, Pamia was so anxious that she was dying, and hurriedly asked Vendarez, who was desperately preparing for the magic on the side.
She was in a hurry, and Vendares was even more anxious, he was now preparing a large-scale destructive divine technique, where was there time to answer her???Moreover, the situation on the city wall, Vendares could also see it clearly, but if the divine technique was not completed, this situation would not change now.
In the previous night, Vendares cast dozens of large-scale attack magic techniques like the Judgment of Light, killing a large number of demonic beasts, but nothing changed, this demonic beast just died, and that demonic beast made up again, as if the demonic beasts of this Monte Snow Mountain, all of them ran here, and they couldn't finish killing at all.
"Eldest Princess Pamea, magic is not so easy to cast!!It requires faith and communication with the gods, and the more powerful the magic is, the longer it will take!!" A priest who stood beside Vendares and assisted him in casting the magic scolded.
Pamia, who was already anxious, was scolded by him, very aggrieved, gritted his teeth, and directly held a willow sapphire staff, ran to the city wall, and went to fight with the mages, archers, and priests who had been fighting all night.
Seeing this, Funata couldn't help frowning, glared back at the priest who didn't know whether she was alive or dead, and then ran to the city wall with her staff in her hand, and fought with Pamia!!
