Chapter 309: Capture the thief and capture the king first
When the ancient boat arrived at the eastern section of the city wall, at least more than a thousand ice horn snow cows jumped off the city wall and rushed towards Autumn Twilight City.
With a "hula", a wall of fire was brushed on the city wall, appearing at the junction between the top of the ice slope and the city wall, finally blocking the way of the cattle. The ancient boat did not stop, and several more walls of fire were brushed on the ice slope one after another.
Fire magic is highly damaging to the Icehorn Snow Cow, which has an innate fear of fire. The scattered small fireballs and small walls of fire can have an impact, but they don't have much effect, and the wall of fire that is more than 100 meters above the ancient boat really scares them, and even if they rush through the wall of fire, they will be burned half to death.
The wall of fire also melts the slopes formed by the ice blocks, and the frozen ice pythons have ceased to appear since the ancient boat arrived.
The auxiliaries pushed dozens of heavy chariots for blocking cavalry up the city wall, lined up on the gap that had been broken through, the heavy infantry rearranged their position, and the hole that had been torn open on the eastern side of the defense line was finally closed.
On the west side of the defense line, after the ancient boat left, the leader beast of the bone beetle and the thundering frog was ready to move again, and a tower magician in Gu Zhuangdian was not deterrent enough.
At this time, another person flew up on the western section of the city wall, Gu Zhuangdian thought that the magician who was preparing to rotate came to support, he turned his head and found that he was wrong, this thundering frog attack flew up It was Ding Kui.
Ding Kui had been attacked by the Thundering Frog once before, but he didn't have much feeling for such a sonic attack, this guy had used the same means to attack others, and his nerves were particularly thick, and he was basically immune to the Thundering Frog's innate magic.
The town guard retreated to the south wall, Ding Kui couldn't attack the beast, and he didn't want to waste his magic power against the beast, so he decided to fly against the attack of the thundering frog.
With the magic shield open, Ding Kui, who flew into the air, hypnotized another bone beetle, and he commanded the bone beetle to kill the snakes. Bone beetles like to eat snakes, and subconsciously have no resistance to attacking snakes, and Ding Kui doesn't have much mental strength.
The snakes were attacked by the upper layer of the food chain, and they suddenly became chaotic, and Ding Kui commanded the bone beetles to cut off the snakes' forward route horizontally. The snakes squeezed into the middle of the crocodiles to avoid the star, and while they didn't stop the herd's charge, they slowed down their advance.
The villain in Ding Kui's sea of divine consciousness that gradually became clear was not afraid of low-level spiritual attacks, only human beings or demonic beasts whose spiritual power was stronger than Ding Kui's, their spiritual attacks were effective against Ding Kui.
Thousands of Thunderfrogs didn't know this, and desperately jumped up from the water to attack Ding Kui, because Ding Kui flew up higher than the Thunderfrog's attack range. This created a good opportunity for the archers, and the auxiliaries sent enough arrows that they could kill the Thunderfrog to their heart's content.
Gu Zhuangdian wanted to stop Ding Kui from flying, but seeing that he was safe and sound in the attack of the thundering frog and the magic shield on his body was not reduced, he was happy to let Ding Kui disrupt the team of beasts.
Seeing Ding Kui's casual appearance, some magicians also wanted to fly, but as soon as they took off, they were crumbling by the sound of thundering frogs, and had to quickly fall back to the ground. Not to mention anything else, Ding Kui's ability to resist sonic attacks has been admired by many magicians.
The two leader beasts under the water couldn't stand it, Ding Kui's magic power fluctuations were not as good as them, and he actually dared to swagger in front of them. Resist the thundering frog attack, control the bone beetle to attack the herd, and openly challenge the dignity of the fourth-level demonic beast.
The bone beetle and the leader beast of the Thundering Frog leaped out of the water together, and the bone beetle spewed out a huge water arrow, and the Thundering Frog used all his strength to unleash his natural magic and attack Ding Kui at the same time.
With a "bang", Ding Kui's atmospheric shield was blown away by a giant water arrow on the spot.
"Hey, hey. Ding Kui sneered, the magic core of the magic wand in his hand flashed, and the atmospheric shield stored inside quickly put on himself.
On top of saving his life, Ding Kui's purpose when the beast tide came, he didn't have many second-level magic, so he stored a magic shield in the magic battle. As for the attack of the Thunderfrog Leader Beast, it was obviously ignored by him.
Gu Zhuangdian had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and sent out a "flame knife" aimed at the bone beetle leader beast.
The Flame Knife, a transformative version of the Fireball Technique, requires more magic and mental power, and has a powerful single attack power.
It was a little difficult for the Fireball Technique to penetrate the bone armor of the Bone Beetle Leader Beast, but the Flame Knife was much easier, directly cutting off one of the tentacles it stretched out to resist.
The Thunderfrog Leader Beast was a bit miserable, and its body was full of demon-breaking arrows. It turned out that the squadron leaders of the 7th and 29th squadrons were waiting for this opportunity, and these two Listening Wind level archers used four consecutive shots at the same time, and eight demon-breaking arrows shot at the Thunderfrog Leader Beast like lightning.
The Thunderfrog floating on the surface of the water is not so easy to shoot, and it cannot escape the attack of the Wind Listener when it jumps into the air.
Diving into the water, the bone beetle leader beast, which was missing a tentacle, saw that the situation was not good, and no longer commanded the clan to attack the city wall, and quickly slipped away, turning back and fleeing back to its habitat.
The two major boss beasts died and fled, and the culprit who urged the demonic beasts to attack was also on the run, and the bone beetle swarm and the thundering frog swarm lost their backbone, and no longer continued to attack the western section of the city wall frantically, and began to flee in all directions.
The crocodiles and snakes were still rushing towards the walls, but they were only delivering food to the hoplites, and the magicians and archers did not use much force, and the walls were filled with one-sided slaughter.
The raindrops falling from the sky began to thin out, and the vision became clearer, and Rong Ci gradually approached the three-eyed fire-tailed demon fox.
In the rainy day, the Demon Fox's actions were affected somewhat, after all, it was a fire-type demonic beast.
"Space warp!" Rong Ci seized the opportunity to unleash the magic.
This adult three-eyed fire-tailed demon fox kept spinning in the space of light and shadow.
"Hmph, still running, winter is coming, you can make a scarf for Xingzhu. Rong Ci looked at the demon fox and wondered how to do it without damaging its fur.
It's too extravagant, using the fur of a sixth-level demonic beast as a scarf, that's the treatment of an imperial princess.
"Arrow of Time and Space. "It took a lot of effort for Rong Ci to cast this magic.
The arrow of time and space, a sixth-level qi magic, ignores the speed of the target, ignores the distance of the target within the range of mental power detection, and is a single attack magic with strong penetration.
The arrow of time and space sent by Rong Ci shot through the third eye of the demon fox, and without penetrating the skin on the back of its head, it shot out strangely from the rear two meters away, killing the three-eyed fire-tailed demon fox.

"What about the magicians of the 188th Division? They haven't arrived yet?"
"Back to the Legion Chief, this heavy rain has affected their itinerary, and it is estimated that they will not arrive until the afternoon. The staff officer reluctantly replied again.
"Report, the magician of Twilight City asks to see you. ”
"Please. ”
The remaining magician in Twilight City sent a piece of information to Shao Diantai.
"Let all the division commanders rush over and convene an emergency military meeting. Shaodiantai shook his spirits, and the test of the Tenth Legion came.
Shao Diancang, commander of the 91st Division, Wu Yu, commander of the 92nd Division, Chen Panqiu, commander of the 93rd Division, Fu Zun, commander of the 94th Division, and Qin Lili, commander of the 95th Division, hurried to the city of Autumn Twilight for a temporary retreat.
Shao Diantai briefly introduced the situation and asked, "At least a thousand Ice Horn Snow Cows are rushing over, we must destroy them in a short time, which of you will fight first?"
"Last time, Qin Lili took the lead, this time I should be allowed to go, the ninety-first division guarantees that it can quickly destroy these demonic beasts. Shaodian Cang patted his chest and said.
"Brother Cang's words are different, my subordinates are already familiar with the terrain here, so it is better to let the 95th Division go up. Qin Lili refused to let go of the opportunity to fight.
"That's a thousand third-level demonic beasts, stronger than a thousand Blade Knights, not so easy to deal with. Legion Leader, my subordinates suggest that these monsters be dispersed first, and then we can break them individually, so that the casualties can be minimized. Wu Yu did not despise the enemy and made a sound suggestion.
"It's been too long since you fought, and your courage has become smaller. The strength of a division and a small team against a demonic beast, will there be casualties in this way?" Qin Lili said disdainfully.
"I agree with Wu Yu's opinion, it's still raining outside, and the water on the ground is not conducive to our charge, and it's hard to say whether the Ice Horn Snow Cow can rush up. The terrain should be used to scatter the cattle into the buildings of the villages and towns, and then we can quickly divide and surround them, and the best solution is to destroy the herd without damage. Frustrated Zun said.
"Do we have less training on a rainy day? I believe my men that this little water will not stop them from charging. Who will compensate for the losses caused by the introduction of demonic beasts into villages and towns? We are here to stop the beast tide in order to protect the property of the kingdom and the common people. Shaodian Cang shouted.
"What do you think?" Shao Diantai asked Chen Panqiu, who had not spoken.
"I will do whatever the regiment commander orders!" Chen Panqiu's answer was short and powerful.
"Well, luring demonic beasts to villages and towns, the local government may not be able to cooperate with us, there is not much time left for us, and it is inevitable that ordinary people will be hurt in a hurry. Shaodiancang, I'll let you attack this time, I hope you don't lose the face of Shaodian.
When killing the monsters, you must pay attention to the safety of the troops, the elite strength of the Tenth Legion is very valuable and cannot be lost here. "Shaodiantai didn't think of a safer plan, but the thought of dealing with local officials gave him a headache, so he decided to deal with the herd in the wild.
"Subordinates take orders!" Shaodian Cang stepped forward to take the arrow, and strode away from Shaodiantai's temporary line with a proud smile.
The 91st Division, 10,000 cavalry, quickly assembled and braved the heavy rain to advance in the direction of Tianmen Town.
To the south of Autumn Twilight City, at a small river more than fifty miles away from the city, ten magicians of the 188th Division were worried about the collapsed wooden bridge. There were two robed magicians among them, who were not yet capable of flying, and they would have to separate if they wanted to move on, but this was against the rules of wartime.
