Chapter 1309： Setting sun

On the border of the flat plain on the southern side of the Dark Mountains, in the magnificent wall position that the Cecilians are responsible for, in front of the huge gap formed by the destruction of the tower of No. 98 Sentinel, a wall is not as tall as the magnificent wall, but still Thrilling new barriers have been erected.

It was a living forest, transformed from a large number of vine roots drilled from the ground.

Nowadays, the towering giant tree, which is strong, tall and capable of predation, has formed a solid barrier on the edge of the wasteland. It has withstood the most ferocious offensive in the impact of deformed bodies and various mutant monsters, and its coverage is limited. From the Cecil’s line of defense to the gap in the barrier faced by the Typhons, even a part of the "predation area" has touched Typhon's position, those terrifying giant vines and the cracking line of defense that splayed above the ground. The soldiers were frightened, and even caused a small scale of chaos in some areas, but in any case, these "combat plants" drilled out of the soil saved the shaky line of defense.

The gap in the barrier that was completely opened due to the destruction of Sentinel Tower No. 98 has been blocked. A considerable part of the tide of monsters swarming out has become food for the living forest, and the remaining monsters are also panicked and everywhere in the face of this sudden blow. Fleeing, the limited "discipline" they showed before has also returned to chaos. Andesa does not know whether this is because the monsters are also afraid or because the command node behind them has died or fled the battlefield. She only knows one thing. Things

Losing the restraint of discipline, the deformed body of chaos and fleeing has returned to the ranks of "monsters", and monsters... are only worthy of being hunted and slaughtered by the army.

On an unnamed ridge extending diagonally into the wasteland, the legion-level spellcasting positions arranged in a hurry by the Typhon Magician Group began to move. The magic power buzzed in the air, and the majestic energy lit up the entire mountain, in the dim chaos. Under the light of the sky, layers of magical auras and complex rune structures rise and connect in the sky above the positions, and the group spellcasting techniques that Typhon’s masters are best at can be fully displayed at this moment.

The overwhelming fire rain fell down, mixed with lightning or ice cones that kept jumping on the ground, and thick arcane energy rays continuously shot out from the top of the mountain, accurately sniping and killing those mixed in the monster group, The huge and conspicuous giant deformed monsters (the Cecils call them "giants" and some soldiers directly call them "giants"). The continuous explosion of magic power shocks the entire mountain range, and the air Everywhere is filled with the unique smell of the air being decomposed by magic.

After losing their command, those monsters no longer know how to cooperate. They will neither cover the firepower units in them, nor do they know how to find shelters or disperse and transfer them, bombarding such "enemy" with magic on the commanding heights... the magic of Typhon. The division is as simple as burning ants on the ground.

Andesa Wendell sighed softly, but while relaxing, she did not let herself lose her judgment.

The improvement of the situation is only partial. The overall situation of this battlefield is still bad. Although the monsters that emerged in the first wave are about to be wiped out, the destruction they have caused has torn a huge hole in the Typhon position. Many heroes In order to cover the casting position, the precious knight lost his life in the previous impact, and the communication lines on the battlefield were also severely damaged. More importantly... the "fault" of the magnificent wall itself has not yet been restored.

Under the radiance of magical power rising from the ridge, Andesa couldn’t help but cast her eyes on the Sentinel Tower 99 on the other side of the ridge and the Sentinel Tower 100 further away. The two towers were not. Like No. 98, they were destroyed as the target of aberrations. However, their condition is not optimistic at all. The low whistling sound has been constantly coming from between the base of the tower and the main body, which is after the energy system failure. The overwhelmed whimper from the shield projection mechanism, and the dim streamer had mostly disappeared from the main surface of the high tower, and around the two high towers, the shields projected out were as thin as paper.

The main force of the deformed body has begun to retreat from the entire line of defense, but there are still a large number of uncontrolled chaotic monsters that are instinctively driven towards the dying magnificent wall. Those chaotic monsters are more dull and blind than the deformed body, and their shallow intelligence Even the thoughts of "fear" and "survival" are lacking, but their destructive power is still powerful and terrifying. Now the magnificent wall is full of loopholes, and the existing troops of the Winter Wolf Legion can't stop all the monsters that pass through the barrier.

Worse than this is that the entire Typhon Empire bordering the Gondor Wasteland is not only the northern line of defense, but also on the border line extending from the empire to the southwest...the defensive force there is far weaker than this "forward". Fortress", and even the defenders there could not have imagined that the magnificent wall would collapse before their eyes.

Andesa believes that no matter where it is on the long border of the empire, the soldiers stationed there will bravely defend the people and homes behind them, and the deformed monsters that have rushed out of the wasteland will be stubbornly resisted on all the borders. , And Aldernan will react immediately after receiving the report from the front. The National Knights, the Royal Mage, and even the Obsidian Forbidden Army who stayed behind will be sent to the front to block the enemy, but before that, in those Before the offensive of the out-of-control monsters is really stopped... how many Typhon’s blood will be drained, and how many cities and villages will be completely destroyed?

Andesa clenched the knight sword in her hand, and for a moment did not dare to imagine the terrifying scenes that would happen in her hometown as the magnificent wall was completely extinguished. She just widened her eyes and stared at those in the distance. The sentry tower shining with a faint light suddenly discovered...the chaotic light flow on the surface of the tower seemed to be gradually returning to the previous order, and the thinning energy barrier around the tower suddenly stopped the momentum of extinction. Began to become solid again.

"General! General!" A subordinate's voice suddenly came from not far away. The dark-skinned young man stumbled across the gravel mountain road, shouting loudly while rushing towards Andesa. "General! The Sentinel Tower has restarted! Our southern barrier is slowly being repaired! The monster...the monster is blocked!"

"I saw it," Andesa immediately calmed down the breathless young officer with a calm tone, and said in a deep voice while casting her gaze on the sentry tower in the distance, "It looks like it is the silver elf. Bian finally stabilized the situation...what happened in the south of the mainland? Can the coalition forces of the Silver Empire or the Gaoling Kingdom be contacted now?"

"Not yet, General," the young officer was taken aback, and immediately shook his head. "The magnificent wall has not been fully restored, and our communications have been seriously disrupted. We still can't hear the signal from the southern part of the mainland..."

"Then continue to keep calling," Andesa said quickly, "At the same time, keep in touch with Cecil's camp. I have a bad feeling... The restart of the Sentinel Tower will not completely solve the problem. This ancient way The barrier of has suffered irreversible damage. The tower of No. 98 sentry is down. The towers of sentry in other areas may also be completely destroyed. Even if the silver elves restart the barrier, those nodes that have been completely destroyed will not be out of thin air. Stand up again... this war has just begun."

…

The **** sunset was splashed on the edge of the smoke-filled forest, billowing thick smoke constantly rising from the distant jungles and valleys, huge plumes of smoke pierced through the sky under the sunset, the pungent breath permeated the high sky, as if the whole world was being Slowly ignite, as if the power of destruction is gradually gnawing the entire land.

In the Temple of the Stars, you can’t hear the sound of killing on the distant ground. However, the roar of the ancient magic array when it fires is still tearing the sky and shaking the earth. The towering ancient Temple of the Stars is as slow as a high mountain flying in the sky. Slowly across the sky, on the side of the Temple of Stars, the original gorgeous and exquisite palace walls have been fully opened, and after the decorative cladding was abandoned, the spellcasting organs hidden in it began to continuously throw devastating flames and lightning on the earth.

However, while splashing these powerful attacks, these ancient facilities are also disintegrating and destroying one after another. One after another, explosions continue to sound from all over the temple of stars. Some magic matrices even self-destructed before firing. Thick smoke is not only rising from the ground, but also rising everywhere in this anti-gravity fortress floating high in the sky.

Several huge arcs suddenly rose from the ground turned into a war zone, shredding the dense smoke that filled the sky and the earth, and hit an anti-gravity engine at the bottom of the Temple of Stars, but the shield that should have been lit up in time Without reaction, in a huge explosion, this ancient engine was instantly extinguished, and the entire air fortress shook violently.

"Your Majesty Queen!" A temple instructor rushed to the seat of dominance, "The third main engine is shut down. We can't hold on for long! We must evacuate the battlefield immediately!"

Belcetia sat on the pale golden throne, she nodded slightly, but in fact, even without reporting from below, she could perceive the state of the temple at this moment.

Pain, dying, overwhelmed, scorching and crumbling.

This too old anti-gravity fortress is bearing a heavy load far beyond its limit at the moment. Whether it is fire support on the ground or an air attack from an army of deformed bodies, it is rapidly consuming the few remaining in the Temple of Stars. life.

Once, this mighty fortress also had glorious years in its heyday. It also ruled the sky and deterred the earth. It could endlessly splatter destructive power and withstand the great blow of any enemy. In those ancient times Here, it will never fear those ugly and shallow monsters wriggling on the ground.

But now... The Temple of Stars is too old. It is so old that it has to do its best to maintain its flight. When it is old, no matter how old it is, it will only linger.

The scorching pain burned in the nerves, Bersetia was suffering from the temple of stars, and listening to the voice of this ancient fortress, it was sighing, full of sorrow.

"The Sentinel Tower has been restarted," Great Astrology Master Vilania came to the Silver Queen. At this moment, the powerful court magician was sweating on her face. Obviously she had been using her magic power to help Bell until now. Setia maintains control of the temple, "The barrier is gradually being rebuilt."

"Only 70% of the towers that responded correctly to Master Verania, the barrier is only being'partially rebuilt'," Bersetia stared at Verania and said, "The fatal loophole has been created, I suspect... there are some towers. It has been completely destroyed by the enemy after losing the ability to resist. I can't feel them."

"At least we can block most of the monsters and let the civilized world defend the chance of counterattack from the great collapse." Verania's eyes changed slightly, but she quickly calmed down. "The complete disappearance of the entire barrier is an irresistible disaster. , But if it’s just a loophole... loopholes can still be filled."

Another violent shaking suddenly came. A high tower on the side of the Temple of Stars was directly hit by an attack from the ground. The shield could not fully withstand the direct attack. Amid the harsh metal cracking sound, that tower was already on the temple deck. The building that had been standing on for thousands of years broke away from the middle little by little, and fell unstoppably toward the ground.

Soldiers and magisters covered in fire rushed out of the ruins of the building, part of them fell on the deck, and part of them fell to the ground along with the pieces of billowing smoke, and fell into the blazing fire on the northern border of the Gaoling Kingdom. Lin Hai.

"Your Majesty, our shield is going out!"

A temple teacher shouted.

Bersetia sighed slightly, she knew that this aerial fortress had been supported to the limit, even if it continued to stay here, it didn't make much sense.

As her next thought was injected into the seat of dominance, the nerve signal was transformed into instructions that the mechanical soul of the temple could understand. The depths of this huge ancient air fortress made a series of roars and low whimpers, the remaining engine unit Starting to adjust the effort, the Temple of Stars turned slowly in the air and drove towards the direction of the Silver Empire.

In the depths of Bersetia's mind, she heard a heavy and sad sigh. Sitting here for hundreds of years, it was the first time that she heard such a clear "sound" from this temple.

"I know...you are unwilling," she whispered in her heart, "but there is no such thing as we can..."

Belsetia's heart was only halfway through, and a terrifying roar and a series of crackling bursts suddenly came from a distance, interrupting the voices and movements of everyone in the temple's control hall.

The picture of the external monitor was quickly connected, and the distant scene of the battlefield became clear in everyone's eyes, and a horrible scene appeared in front of everyone.

Right in front of the defense line facing the Gaoling Kingdom, at the forefront of the forest defense line, a series of flashes and explosions burst out suddenly on the surface of the sentry tower that has sheltered this southern country of mankind for more than seven centuries. With the obvious internal energy exploding, the whole tower began to tremble and shake violently, and finally began to slowly fall towards the base...

Accompanied by a deafening noise, the tower collided with the base, and a huge fireball rose from the spot, burning everything on the line of defense in the blink of an eye.

A legion set in front of the defense line of the Highmountain Kingdom was instantly wiped out, together with the thousands of elven soldiers stationed there who were fighting side by side with humans.

At the same time, the energy barriers that had just re-lit on both sides of the sentry tower also suddenly extinguished after flashing violently.

The innumerable army of deformed bodies in the wasteland paused for a short time, and then turned into a black frenzy, surging violently towards the already riddled and crumbling border defense line of the Gaoling Kingdom.
