Game of the World Tree - Chapter 681
681. Chapter 678 Dimensionality Attack (Additional update for the invitation letter activity of the urging circle)
The strange ellipsoidal object does not look big, and can only be said to be visible to the n*ked eye.
Because there is no other object for reference, although the guards on duty were alert at the first time, they only observed the other party vigilantly.
“Warcraft?”
He muttered in confusion.
However, as time went by, the ellipsoidal object seemed to be lowering its altitude, it became larger and larger, and its appearance became clearer and clearer.
When the guards saw the obviously artificial black dragon emblem and scepter symbol on the side of the ellipsoidal object, their expressions finally changed.
“Man-made objects… I’m afraid they are something of a magician!”
He hurriedly walked to the other side of the tower, opened a metal tube covering the wall, took out a metal cone and knocked on the wall of the tube.
It was a metal tube that went straight to the bottom of the tower. Speaking from the top of the tower could be clearly heard by the guards on duty at the bottom of the tower. It was the best assistant for the guards on duty to convey messages.
As the guards knocked, the metal tube vibrated and emitted a long echo.
Just a few seconds later, a voice came from the metal tube:
“What happened?”
“There is something going on in the sky. A mysterious flying object has appeared. It looks like it is man-made. It may be a magician’s reconnaissance puppet!”
said the guard.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that the whole world seemed to darken…
The guard’s heart jumped, and he quickly raised his head to look outside the tower. He saw that the mysterious ellipsoid in the sky had dropped to a height of hundreds of meters. Its huge body blocked the sun in the sky.
The speed of the ellipsoid slowed down significantly, and soon it reached the top of the guard’s head, which was also the fortress of Augsburg, Fort Forze.
At this moment, everything about the mysterious ellipsoid could be seen clearly.
The guard could see the hull-like pod under the ellipsoid, the vaguely moving figures in the pod, and the complex magic array flashing with light under the pod…
“Gods above… What… What is this?!”
Looking at the huge object above his head, he opened his mouth in shock and couldn’t help exclaiming.
Suddenly, the hatch of the pod under the ellipsoid object seemed to open, and countless glittering objects fell from it, like snowflakes.
The glittering objects became larger and larger, and the guards soon saw their appearance clearly. They seemed to be stones with magic circles carved on them.
At this moment, the guards suddenly had a bad feeling.
Strange stones fell from the sky, gradually ignited during the fall, and finally turned into burning fireballs.
Seeing this scene, the guards’ expressions finally changed drastically:
“No! It’s an enemy attack!”
He quickly sounded the alarm in the tower, but… it was too late.
The flaming stones fell, like meteorites falling from the sky, and smashed into the Fortress of Forzer on the hill. Violent explosions began to sound in various parts of the castle.
The sound was like thunder, and the whole earth was shaking, one round after another.
The defenders in the fortress looked at the sky blankly. Before they could figure out what the huge object that suddenly flew over was, they were stunned by the “meteorite” that fell from the sky.
The melodious alarm bells rang long, accompanied by a loud bang. Amid exclamations and screams, thick smoke rose from the towering fortress.
“Oh no! The imperial army is attacking from the sky!”
“A flying magic fortress! They actually have a flying magic fortress!”
The fortress was noisy and in chaos.
“Damn, what happened?!”
A middle-aged wizard in a magic robe walked out of the castle and looked at the miserable situation in various parts of the fortress with an ugly expression.
He raised his head and soon saw the culprit, the behemoth in the sky.
And… the “meteorite” that was still falling.
The middle-aged wizard’s expression suddenly became solemn.
“The magic stone engraved with the explosion array…”
He said with an ugly expression.
Then, he pulled over a guard who was rushing to put out the fire, and ordered urgently:
“Hurry, go to the Sunset Temple and open the divine defense barrier! Quick!”
Then, he glanced at the black dragon emblem and scepter emblem on the side of the ellipsoid, and ordered to the surrounding defenders:
“Don’t panic! This is not the emblem of any territory in the empire. It should be those lawless elven mercenaries!”
“Aim the crossbows and magic crystal cannons in the city at the sky and fight back!”
“Archers! Where are the archers! Cooperate with the mages! Attack the sky!”
Following the mage’s order, the defenders in the city quickly took action. They braved the falling “bombs” and looked for cover while pushing out the crossbows in the city and aiming them at the sky.
The more daring ones, braving the explosions that might fall on their heads at any time, climbed up the towers of the fortress in groups of three or five, mobilized the fixed heavy crossbows and the few magic crystal cannons in the fortress, and aimed at the monsters in the sky…
The defenders’ counterattack soon began, accompanied by the sound of cannons and heavy crossbows, and charged magic bullets and terrifying giant crossbow arrows flew towards the mysterious “fortress” in the sky.
However, just as these attacks were about to hit the ellipsoidal object in the sky, a faint fluorescence appeared on the surface of the ellipsoidal object, and a complex and gorgeous magic array appeared…
The golden light gathered around it, and finally formed a shallow golden barrier.
The ground attack was imminent, but whether it was the charged elemental bullets fired by the magic crystal cannon or the heavy crossbow arrows fired by the defenders, they all stopped in front of this shallow golden barrier, unable to cause even the slightest damage to the mysterious “fortress”…
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged mage was stunned:
“Divine magic defense barrier!?”
The ground attack could not do anything to the “fortress” in the sky, and the giant in the sky became even more unscrupulous.
It flew lower…
One by one, the black muzzles appeared from the side of the pod, aiming at the fortress below.
To be more precise, it was aimed at the heavy crossbow and magic crystal cannon that had just launched an attack in the sky.
Looking at the familiar gun barrels, the middle-aged mage looked grim:
“Magic crystal cannon…”
That was also a magic crystal cannon!
Moreover, it was a heavy magic crystal cannon produced by the Empire Central Magic Workshop!
Damn it, how could a heavy magic crystal cannon that was said to be not even equipped by the Empire’s military appear here? !
Is it that group of bastard smugglers again? !
The middle-aged wizard was shocked and angry.
However… the opponent’s attack had already landed.
A roar sounded, and a dazzling light flashed from the muzzle. A series of blue energy elements flew out and hit the target on the ground…
Under a magical flame, the bed crossbow and magic crystal cannon were cleared one by one.
Fortunately, the magic crystal cannon consumes a lot of magic power.
The aerial “fortress” did not seem to have too many super-quality magic stones.
After only one round of attack to eliminate the forces on the ground that could threaten the aerial target, the opponent turned to magic stone bombs again.
However, although the damage of this magic stone engraved with the explosive magic array was not as terrible as the magic crystal cannon, the carpet bombing that was like a meteorite rain brought more serious damage to the fortress.
With loud noises one after another, Fort Forze quickly turned into a sea of fire.
The soldiers’ calls were drowned out by the roar of the explosion. The middle-aged wizard, with red eyes, shouted at the guards:
“Where is our divine defense barrier? It hasn’t been activated yet?!”
However, he was only greeted with a bitter expression from the guards:
“Master, the priest said that we have just replaced the statue of His Majesty the True God, and the power of faith gathered by His Majesty the God of Dusk and Sunset in the city is temporarily unable to activate the divine barrier…”
The middle-aged wizard: …
Hearing this answer, he felt his mind go blank.
The divine defense barrier is one of the core forces of a city’s defense attack. Without it, the city’s defense power will be greatly weakened.
There is no doubt that at this moment, the entire Fortress of Forzer has become a living target under the attack of the enemy.
Looking at the miserable state of the surrounding castles, the middle-aged wizard understands that after this attack… This solid fortress standing in the city of Augs may be finished.
If there is any luck, it is that at this moment, the city of Augs is not the front line of the war. Even if the Fortress of Forzer is damaged and the defenders suffer heavy losses, it will not have any major impact on the overall situation of the war.
However, I don’t know whether it is the favor of the gods or whether the magic stones carried are used up. The bombing of the “fortress” in the air did not last too long.
After a round of carpet bombing, the loud noise gradually became sparse.
However, before the defenders who suffered heavy losses in the bombing could catch their breath, the “fortress” in the sky changed again.
“Look… look! What… what is that?”
The surviving soldier pointed to the sky and said in horror.
The embarrassed middle-aged mage looked up and saw a dazzling golden light suddenly flashing in the pod below the ellipsoidal “fortress”.
A series of obscure space fluctuations came, and one golden magic circle after another appeared in the sky.
The magic circles were dense and countless, and soon spread all over the sky, covering the city of Ogus.
When the middle-aged mage saw the slightly familiar magic circle, he finally lost his voice:
“Elf summoning?!”
Elf summoning!
He would not make a mistake. It was a summoning magic circle that had become popular on the mainland recently. It appeared when using the statue to summon elves!
Thinking of this, the middle-aged mage finally panicked:
“Not good!”
He hurriedly looked around and shouted:
“Where are the guards! The guards are there! Quickly notify all departments and prepare for battle!”
However, no one responded.
The messenger guard who was responsible for following him had already been killed by an explosion, and the entire fortress was already in ruins.
The ground was full of scattered equipment, most of which were twisted and covered with mottled blood.
However, there were very few corpses…
However, although there were few corpses, the middle-aged wizard knew that the number of dead soldiers was definitely not a small number, because in the bombing just now, he saw many people turned into ashes in the explosion.
There is no doubt that the fortress at this moment has almost lost its resistance.
Even the surviving soldiers have already collapsed their morale under this inexplicable attack…
In the sky, the summoning array was quickly condensed.
Under the dazzling brilliance, one figure after another was like a god descending from heaven.
They were elves riding flying monsters. There were many kinds of mounts under them, including griffins, flying dragons, and giant eagles…
The dense figures covered the sky, and there must be at least thousands of them.
They were scattered around the sky fortress, and after appearing, they took out something from their arms and scattered it down.
Flying down like snowflakes.
They turned out to be pieces of paper.
Soon, pieces of paper also fell in the Fortress of Forzer, and one piece flew directly to the face of the middle-aged wizard.
He took it off and held it in his hand.
The paper was not big, about the size of a palm.
On it, there was a declaration written in the common language of the street:
“The evil god has come, the nobles have fallen, and the Maple Leaf Territory is sinking into fire and water…”
“However, justice still exists and light lasts forever.”
“I, Sophia, the favored one of the Goddess of Life and the successor of the legal lord of Maple Leaf Territory, bring with me two hundred thousand chosen elves to launch a holy war in the name of the true God against the evil Red Maple Kingdom and the fallen ones of the abyss!”
“Evil will not be destroyed, and the flames of war will not be extinguished!”
“I swear my soul to the kind and great Goddess of Life, Her Majesty Eve–
” “After this battle, peace and tranquility
will be brought to the entire Maple Leaf Territory!” “After this battle, real changes will be brought to the entire territory!”
“After this battle, no matter whether they are poor or rich, every citizen of the territory will live a happy and healthy life!”
“People who do not want to be oppressed… please pick up the weapons beside you and join us in eliminating and expelling these fallen evil god believers!”
“Victory will belong to us!”
“The future will belong to us!”
“My fellow countrymen of Maple Leaf Territory…”
“For the glory of the goddess, for a bright future, join us and fight together!”
“…”
The declaration was not long.
However, after reading its contents, the middle-aged wizard’s face suddenly became ugly.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at the elves in the air with a trace of fear.
“Holy War… The elves launched a holy war!”
“How dare they? They actually dared!”
The middle-aged wizard was in despair, and gradually, he seemed to hear the faint shouting and killing outside the fortress…
Soon, a soldier with a pale face came in front of him and said in horror:
“Captain, it’s bad! There are riots everywhere in the city!”
Riot… Riot? !
The middle-aged wizard was stunned.
Then, he was furious:
“A group of humble poor people dare to resist us?! Who do they think they are?!”
However, this anger soon turned into fear, and then from fear to confusion.
Especially when he saw the elves riding on magic beasts in the sky, starting to fly towards the ground…
“For the glory of the goddess!”
In the air, the elves roared with passion and high morale.
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged wizard’s face finally turned pale:
“It’s over…”
There will be another update in the evening, it will be quite late_(:з」∠)_
