Chapter 689: "Invincible Defense"
Chapter 689: “Invincible Defense”
Thanks to the perfect strategy and cooperation, the damage to the Sloan Family’s barrier was lessened by more than half.
Not to mention that the weapons attached to the wall outside of the barrier’s range weren’t for show.
Even without Ainsley’s command, the team that controlled the weapons attached to the wall were busy shooting ‘flies and bees’.
BOOM! BOOM! TANG! BANG!
“Attack! Shoot as many bastards as you can! Before the wall got demolished and the weapons couldn’t be used anymore. Drag as many people as you can!”
The Sloan Family members were so excited as they shot countless cannonballs and other explosive materials at the Naran Family’s land troops.
From the south, north, west and east, countless cannons shot at the same time, and the wall shook for a bit, almost crumbling from the recoil.
If the wall wasn’t made of durable metal, it would have been blown away from the recoil alone.
The poor Naran Family’s land troops that were trying to breach the wall and melt the barriers were hit with cannonballs rain, and the careless ones instantly died on the spot.
“Ahhhh!”
“Kyaaa!”
“Fck– barrier ability users, cover us!”
“Defense team, go to the front! Protect the offensive team!”
“Hit the cannonballs! Slice them! Elemental ability users, throw the cannonballs away!”
The land troops’s various leaders shouted to their people as they started to defend against the Cannonballs.
Since the cannonballs weren’t the effect of a special ability, facing various special abilities launched by the ability users, their effectiveness soon decreased.
But this was within Ainsley’s calculation.
After the cannonballs were no longer that useful except for harassing the land troops and keeping them busy or distracted, Ainsley contacted the shooter teams located at the mansion’s rooftop.
Yes, Ainsley assigned many archers, shooters, and other long-range ability users with only one ability at the mansion’s rooftop.
They’re positioned everywhere, from the main mansion to the other attached buildings. Some even joined the air force, forming team C and team F.
Team C’s members were elite air force members with long-range attack abilities plus monster or beast tamer ability.
On the other hand, team F consisted of non-tamers who got flying monsters recently or a few months ago.
However, they’re proficient in shooting and were already trained to be a part of the air force’s assault position.
Thus, when Ainsley sent a signal for them to move, the air force immediately targeted the land troops outside of the barrier while the archers or shooters aimed for those who trespassed the barrier.
The moment a lucky Naran land troop’s member finally managed to sneak in pass the side yard’s barrier, a Sloan Family’s archer silently tugged their bowstring, and their arrow flew fast in the air.
PSIU!
Seconds later, the arrow successfully stabbed the intruder’s left chest, aiming right at their heart.
The intruder still didn’t understand what was going on when they lost their life like that.
It’s a pity that the intruder was an offensive-tyle ability user. That’s why they couldn’t protect themselves from the archer’s silent attack.
Before they could use their ability, they had already lost their life.
Many such cases appeared on the battlefield.
The Naran Family’s land troops worked hard to sneak past the barrier, but crossing the front yard, the backyard, or even the side yard was even more difficult than surviving the attack beyond the wall.
Elites could cross the yard successfully, albeit suffering from deep wounds and other status ailments, but ordinary members mostly lost their life.
Their bodies slowly scattered throughout the yard, alarming the Naran Family’s forces.
It has only been an hour or so, but the casualties on the Naran Family’s side were twice or thrice the Sloan Family’s side.
The Sloan Family only lost ten or so people who got killed by stray attacks or other unforeseen circumstances, but the majority were fine and didn’t even suffer big injuries.
On the other hand, the Naran Family already lost tons of their land troops and some of their air force members without even touching the main mansion’s building.
This…the situation is bad!
Paul gritted his teeth as he cursed the Sloan Family’s 7-layered barriers and the priests they recruited.
Even when the air force bombed the barrier, the barrier would keep regenerating, as if it couldn’t be exhausted.
Even when they launched a big attack, the barrier only shattered up to the fourth or fifth layer, leaving two layers intact.
The two layers were enough for the barrier machine to regenerate other layers. Even when it took several minutes up to half an hour, the barrier ability users weren’t idle.
They kept the barrier intact from time to time. They hoarded many recovery potions and energy crystals, so they could keep going.
Not to mention that Ainsley divided all the barrier ability users into three shifts. Morning, afternoon, and night shift.
The barrier ability users had plenty of rest in a comfortable environment while the Naran Family had to sleep outdoors.
They did set up tents, but from time to time, many monsters and beasts would come out of the forests and harass them non-stop.
The Naran Family was so frustrated that they wanted to nuke the whole mansion!
But even a nuke and bombs couldn’t break all the barrier’s seven layers plus the protective arrays.
Yes, don’t forget about the protective arrays. The arrays absorbed the bomb or nuke’s radiation energy plus the explosive nature, leaving only the hitting impact to the barrier.
Not even fire came out of the bombs or nuke. They tried giving ice bombs or other elemental bombs, but it didn’t work.
The Sloan Family’s defense is just too absurd!! How did they even set up all these tools in just a month?
Despicable!
