Chapter 217 The Third Circle Falls [Subscribe]

The monsters outside the city were hit one after another by 107mm rocket launchers and individual cloud bombs.

The flames never stopped after they started.

Facing such a huge momentum, both the monsters and the Magatan defenders couldn't help but feel surprised.

Explosions, shock waves, high temperature and high pressure, and blazing fireballs illuminated the red city outside.

The rolling heat flow radiates to the surroundings along the trajectory of the ground shock wave.

After the explosion expanded to its limit, the fire gradually subsided.

Centered on the explosion point, an area with a radius of about thirty meters was reduced to scorched earth.

The beholder whose normal level is level three to level four was destroyed by this energy level attack and turned into a stiff, carbonized corpse.

The deflagration draws out the air within the range, and the temperature and pressure prevent external airflow from quickly influxing into the filling chamber.

This turned that area into an oxygen-free high-temperature purgatory.

Viewed from a distance, the air there is distorted by the high heat.

It will take at least several minutes for it to cool down enough for airflow to resume.

This is still in the open ground. If it is used to attack a fortress, it may turn the entire fortress into a hell on earth in an instant. Even if it escapes the high temperature and shock wave, it will be difficult to escape the damage of hypoxia.

Even if you can barely breathe while hiding in the depths, you still have to endure tremendous pain.

The hot air can burn the respiratory mucosa the moment you breathe it in.

This is why breathing difficulties often occur in fire scenes. In addition to harmful gases, most of the time it is due to the influence of high temperature and high pressure. Every breath is like swallowing sulfuric acid.

For monsters, a high temperature of over 2500°C is enough to be fatal.

At this time, the garrison commander Nasram was holding a spear to fight off a dog demon.

He raised a shield with one arm and withstood the collision of a black-backed pig.

Only then did he have time to look outside the tower where the explosion occurred.

Two or three hundred meters away, the aftermath of the impact that hit me was still hot, just like the sweltering feeling when you suddenly walked out of a cold cellar in midsummer.

"Terrible power! It's comparable to high-level fire magic."

Nasram couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart.

At any rate, he had served on the Kingdom's front for more than ten Naraya years.

I have seen the performance of high-end military force by both the natives of Naroa and the demons.

No matter in terms of power or attack range, the individual cloud explosive bombs are remarkable.

And there seems to be no threshold for this level of attack.

It was simply launched by Ophelia holding a tubular launcher called a "bazooka".

Needless to say, Nasram also knew that this must be the handiwork of the mysterious master.

On the high tower, the two women were also frightened by the power of the individual cloud bombs.

Ophelia was seen gently touching the fiberglass body that was emitting heat due to the launch, her mouth was slightly open, and her face was full of knowledge.

Just that one cloud blast bomb wiped out at least a hundred beholder demons!

This greatly reduces the monster's long-range attack strength.

Indirectly relieves the defensive pressure on the tower.

Most importantly, it gives Ophelia the ability to kill large groups of monsters across levels.

This is also the biggest advantage of Blue Star's modern weapons, that is, it is less difficult to get started.

At least this is true compared to the threshold of cultivation in the extraordinary world.

However, local advantages cannot change the overall disadvantages.

Shortly after the individual cloud bomb was detonated, a certain section of the city tower's defense line was completely occupied by monsters.

The swarm of monsters outside the city were like the dark tide that had found its outlet, rushing crazily toward the gap in the defense line.

In most defensive battles, as long as there is a first breakthrough, it means that the entire line of defense will become in danger.

"Reinforce your defenses and retreat to the streets behind you."

"Open magic energy shields in all battle forts to buy time for the defense line to be closed."

"The longbow team and crossbowmen all retreated to the second circle of towers, and the mage team acted simultaneously."

Nasram's spear was stained with blood, and he raised his hand to pat the magic transmitter on his chest.

Then his voice came out from the loudspeakers located all over the defense line, mixed in with the noisy sound of fighting.

Watching the monsters pouring in from the gap in the tower like an overflowing tide.

This forced Ophelia, who was preparing to assemble the second cloud bomb, to stop early.

The tower is not far from the city tower, and with the speed at which the monster spreads, it will soon be surrounded by the tower.

The preparation for launching a cloud bomb requires at least two or three minutes.

This is because Ophelia has silver-level magic cultivation and is relatively strong, so she can complete team operations alone.

This high tower is regarded as a forward sentry point and command post, with a height of about 100 meters.

Rapid zip lines are set up in all directions to enable timely evacuation.

Seeing that something was wrong, the two women decisively put away all the firearms using space storage jewelry.

And he came to the ropeway facing the rear and slid down with the wheel set.

Shrinking the defenses was a huge test for the garrison on the front line.

Every minute, people are killed by monsters.

When the entire city tower fell, the monsters' numerical advantage was finally brought into play again.

They crossed the tower one after another and entered the third circle.

No one knows how many people will be able to safely retreat to the second circle of defense in the end.

The only ones on the front line that can still resist are the battle forts.

Each battle fort has raised an independent magic energy shield.

They are like reefs in the vast black tide, bearing wave after wave of desperate impact.

On average, there is about a squadron of garrison troops in each war fortress.

It has to be said that they are all real warriors.

Standing on the tower of the war fortress, looking at the dense monsters below, no matter who it is, they will have a sense of despair like being trapped on an isolated island!

At the same time, the evacuation of the third circle is underway.

In the black street, the two major forces of the coolie mule and the broken finger gang are tightly together under the instructions of Chen Xuan.

They assisted the light cavalry battalion to evacuate civilians living in the third circle.

At the last moment, one more person can also increase the power of resistance.

Fortunately, most of the supplies have been transferred before the monsters officially attacked.

After the offensive and defensive tug-of-war just now.

On the southern battlefield, more than 100,000 monsters lost more than 30,000 in the process of breaking through the city tower.

Most of them are goblins, black-backed pigs and dog demons.

Rushing the highest wall and suffering the most poisonous beating is their true portrayal.

In addition, the few eye demons suffered heavy damage under the bombardment of that cloud bomb.

This method of forming teams with fixed ethnic groups can easily be crippled in a battle.

The main defenders only have about 14,000 people.

Among them, there are more than 1,600 longbows, more than 500 crossbowmen, and about 12,000 garrisons guarding the city walls.

It is already very good to achieve this result.

After all, the number and average level of monsters are there.

Even though the southern line has achieved results that exceed expectations, the remaining monster clusters are still like mountains and seas.

The numerical advantage is still obvious.

However, after the defense line shrinks, the defense density of Magtan City will be further improved.

The biggest variable at present is the group of monsters with a total of more than 30,000 heads that are directly "airdropped" into the first circle!

This has led to an embarrassing situation now.

The defenders of the first circle have left their positions and went to support the castle.

The second circle has become the only buffer.

If the defense system of Magtan City is compared to a multi-layered egg.

Then the third circle is the eggshell, the second circle is the egg white, and the first circle is the egg yolk.

The Baron Castle is the egg heart.

As for the temporary defense line outside the city, it can barely be regarded as a layer of dirt.

The current situation is that the monsters are attacking from both inside and outside.

The monsters outside have broken through the eggshell and are heading towards the egg white area.

The monsters inside have directly penetrated the position of the yolk and are preparing to attack the egg heart.

The situation is not complicated, but it is very critical.

In this unequal war, it would be abnormal if the monsters could not win.

It is not surprising to win.

Throughout the history of Naroa, there are records of magic disasters in almost all places.

For a state city, there are only a few cases that can withstand the magic disaster of the [Medium-sized Void Transmission Channel] level.

Everyone knows which outcome is more likely.

But the people of Magtan City have no choice.

Even if you die, you must kill as many monsters as possible and take a few with you.

Kill one and you earn one, kill two and you earn two.

Anyway, you will die anyway, so you might as well fight first and then die.

With this realization, death is no longer scary.

Unfortunately, the determination to resist alone is not enough to turn the tide.

The miracle of Magtan City has not appeared at least until now.

…

Inside the castle of Baron Bessos Chibman.

At this time, the castle can be said to have truly fulfilled its original intention when it was built.

The towers are full of archers.

With Axo Manor as the boundary, several surrounding blocks have become the gathering place of monsters.

As early as the mutation occurred, the defenders stationed in the first circle rushed to the castle in a hurry.

There were only about 1,200 garrisons stationed here.

With the continuous replenishment of the defenders in the first circle, the number of people finally reached more than 5,600.

The closer to the core area, the smaller the defense line, and the fewer garrisons left.

It was already good enough to gather more than 5,000 garrisons to the castle in a short period of time.

In addition, the castle also has an independent defense system.

Including a well-maintained magic energy generation device, but the strength and scale cannot be compared with the large shield covering the direction of the tower, but it is enough to completely protect the castle.

At this moment, in the conference hall in the castle.

Several magic projections are projecting the situation of several areas in the city from a bird's-eye view.

You can often see ravens flying in and out with letters.

The situation on the southern battlefield was transmitted to the castle from the moment the tower collapsed.

At the same time, the picture transmitted also included the Axo Manor in the first circle.

The chaotic magic there was condensed into fog, obscuring most of the vision.

Baron Besos looked ugly. Through the existing pictures, everyone found that most of the demon descendants in this monster army were different from the monsters that descended from the void channel.

They seemed to be native monsters from the local caves,

which meant that they had already laid a foreshadowing in the city and were ready to attack in groups!

"Ancetus! It's you!"

Baron Besos gritted his teeth as he faced the faint projection.

Following this came a deep worry.

More than ten minutes had passed since the light column of the Gray Flash Altar appeared.

It's not that the monsters are too arrogant and deliberately leave them some buffer time.

But for group battles with more than 10,000 monsters, it is necessary to gather and prepare.

We can't let more than 30,000 monsters attack in a disorderly manner.

Any large-scale formation basically takes a certain amount of time.

So there is not much time left for preparation in the castle.

The current strategy is very simple.

On the one hand, continue to strengthen the castle's defense.

On the other hand, dispatch more garrisons from the second circle to support.

But this kind of support may not be able to play the desired effect.

Because in the absence of geographical factors, the garrison is actually at a disadvantage in a head-on fight.

Even if the formation can offset some of the disadvantages, the numerical advantages and disadvantages of both sides have already been laid out here.

The full establishment of the garrison is only 20,000 to 30,000 people, and this group of monsters in the first circle has more than 30,000 heads, which makes it difficult for Magtan City to attack them in return!

Fortunately, the reserve team has a reserve of magic tears, which is one of the few advantages.

Baron Bezos was in a dilemma when he thought of this.

"If the master was here..."

He shook his head and didn't think much about this idea.

The monsters' offensive seemed eager and fierce.

No one could figure out what prompted the monsters to launch a strong attack in a short time.

The motive of the dragon's strong attack was coveting the controller of the law.

These were not what Bezos and others could understand, after all, the gap in level was there.

Just as everyone in the conference room was mobilizing troops, the melodious horn sounded.

"Woo woo woo woo..."

Different from the previous horn sounds.

This time the horn sounded short and rapid.

"The monster group from Axo Manor to the library block has moved!"

The messenger brought a bad news.

At the same time, the group of monsters in the projection screen also officially set off.

They crossed the area where the black fog was rippling.

This means that the "airborne" monsters launched an attack on the castle!

…

Ansetus Axo was still wearing the high-collared cloak.

His face was covered with tiny purple-black scales, and the horns on his head flashed cold light.

His original wise eyes had long disappeared, replaced by reptile-like vertical pupils.

The four-winged magic eagle under his crotch gently flapped its wings, allowing him to fly in the air and command the monsters to move forward.

This batch of monsters did not come from the void channel across the domain.

Instead, they were monsters that had been dormant in the caves around Magtan City.

There were also two guardian-level monsters among them, but due to the influence of the level of the cave, these two guardians were not level five, but level four, but they were stronger than regular level four monsters. The most important thing was that they all had a certain amount of wisdom and could exist as command nodes.

Looking at the Baron Castle that was close at hand, Ansetus's expression became even more indifferent.

…
