Chapter 382: The defensive battle of the level 5 City Tower (7)
Translator: 549690339
The city assaulters who followed closely behind were all shocked by the scene in front of them.
They could clearly see a mist of blood rising from The Dark Barbarian mercenaries ‘camp, and screams of pain came one after another.
Those fiendish dark barbarians were being killed by bullets, and their bodies were lying on the ground.
Streams of blood gathered under the gravel on the ground, forming a blood pool in the low-lying area.
After being soaked in blood several times, the White gravel in front of Holy Dragon City had turned light red. After being soaked in blood again, it began to turn dark red.
These city assaulters, who were good at using cold weapons, were fortunate enough to witness the killing efficiency of firearms in front of Holy Dragon City. They were all terrified.
The deafening cannons and the dense rain of machine guns turned the Holy Dragon City into an iron Hedgehog covered in poisonous spikes. There was no place to go.
This kind of high efficiency killing had far exceeded the expectations of the mercenary leaders!
If they could not suppress Holy Dragon City, the mercenaries who were involved in the siege would probably retreat immediately.
Realizing this, the leaders of the mercenaries quickly used countermeasures.
After a bird-like whistle, hundreds of elf archers drew their bows at the same time and shot fiery red Arrows at the Holy Dragon city’s walls.
This arrow seemed to have a strange ability. It suddenly accelerated after rising into the air, as if it was not affected by gravity. It glided straight in the air, heading straight for the Holy Dragon city’s walls.
Occasionally, bullets would collide with these fiery red Arrows, causing a loud bang in the sky and a large number of sparks to burst out.
The destructive power of a small arrow was no less than that of a grenade!
The Holy Dragon City had its own secret weapon, and so did the foreign mercenaries who were attacking the city.
As the elf archers gathered, a large group of dwarf mercenaries with huge bags on their backs also quickly gathered.
They quickly pieced together the metal casting pieces, and in just a few minutes, they had formed low cannons.
These cannons didn’t look very impressive, but the huge muzzles made people shudder. They didn’t dare to doubt their lethality.
After the cannonballs were loaded, these low cannons began to roar. Solid cannonballs whizzed out, heading straight for Holy Dragon City.
The black-robed mercenaries who looked like Grim Reapers with scythes in their hands flew into the air one after another, and a large number of black shadows blocked the sun from the sky.
The leader of the black-robed mercenaries laughed hideously. He waved his huge scythe a few times and the black-robed cultivators scattered.
They were not flying very fast, but they avoided the front of the city wall completely, as if they were ready to attack from the surrounding mountains.
The mountains that were used to block the enemy were nothing to them!
After realizing the black-robed cultivator’s intentions, the Holy Dragon city’s second Army soldiers started to fire at the sky.
Ten close-range artilleries were also locked onto these guys. Once they entered the attack range, they would suffer a terrifying rain of bullets.
Even Tang Zhen himself was unable to withstand that kind of abnormal shooting speed!
The mercenaries in the other buildings also showed off their abilities. A mess of long-range weapons appeared one after another, all of them smashing towards Holy Dragon City.
Bullets, bombs, poisonous smoke, javelins, and arrows.
All kinds of long-range weapons were constantly falling on the Holy Dragon city’s walls.
The originally smooth city wall was now filled with dents and hard Spears.
If not for the Holy Dragon city’s high walls, which greatly reduced the effectiveness of these attacks, they would have definitely caused a lot of casualties.
Some of the agility-based mercenaries who had been specially selected had rushed to the bottom of the city wall and began to climb up the wall like agile monkeys.
Although the mercenaries were constantly shot down by bullets, the mercenaries who were climbing the city wall were still as dense as ants. They quickly rushed to the top of the city wall.
Tang Zhen, who was standing on the wall, gently sighed in relief after noticing this scene.
Although the strength of these long-range attacks varied, if they continued to land on the top of the wall, it would still cause a huge number of casualties to the Holy Dragon City soldiers.
If it was before the protective shield, Tang Zhen might have felt a headache. However, with the mage defense tower, this level of long-range attack could no longer do anything to the Holy Dragon City.
The means of these city assaulters were only so-so!
Tang Zhen activated the protective shield without any hesitation after thinking of this.
“Your performance ends here, and it’s time to end this battle!”
Tang Zhen looked down at those city assaulters who had completely crossed the salty river from above as he coldly snorted in a low and deep voice.
The enemy’s path of retreat had been cut off. If they didn’t fight now, when would they?
As soon as he finished speaking, the defense tower in the center of the inner city flashed. Then, the entire sacred Dragon Valley was covered by a protective shield, and light waves kept flowing in the void.
From a distance, the sacred Dragon Valley seemed to be covered by a giant transparent bowl, blocking all the long-range attacks.
Balls of dazzling flames exploded in the air. It was the scene of the long-range attacks of the city assaulters colliding with the protective shield.
With this protective shield, the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers could attack the enemy as much as they wanted, but the enemy’s attacks would be blocked by the protective shield.
Be it physical attacks or Holy Masters ‘attacks, none of them were able to penetrate the defensive barrier.
Before the protective shield crumbled, the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers did not need to worry about being injured by the enemy’s attacks!
After realizing this, the soldiers guarding the city were even more unrestrained, and their attack speed almost doubled.
The Dark Barbarian mercenary group was basically useless now. The mercenaries in the building that were following them also began to feel the sense of powerlessness of The Dark Barbarian mercenaries.
When the mercenary leaders noticed what was happening on the battlefield, they were even more shocked.
They didn’t expect the Holy Dragon City to have such a protective shield in addition to the guns and cannons. How were they supposed to attack the city?
The hot-tempered mercenaries had already started to jump and curse.
First, you bombard them, then you shoot at them. We finally managed to get close to the city wall and we can fight back, but you f * cking created a protective shield!
You’re just a newly-upgraded Level 5 City Tower. You can’t cheat like this, okay?
While the mercenary group leaders were depressed, they also began to think to themselves.
Could it be that the Holy Dragon city’s main city was a building that could activate a protective shield?
Perhaps this was the reason why the cornerstone platform released the siege mission?
While they were lamenting the Holy Dragon city’s luck, a trace of greed rose in the hearts of these mercenary group leaders.
If he could get his hands on this foundation stone, he would make a fortune!
A building foundation stone that could activate a protective shield and had all its attributes clearly stated could easily be sold for tens of millions of brain beads, and there was a price but no market for it.
If one had the strength and ambition, they could even use this Foundation to build their own city and become the Lord of the city!
It was extremely difficult to upgrade a normal building to Level 3.
However, if the building was built with such a top-grade foundation stone, as long as there were sufficient resources, the defensive barrier could be activated by the building to resist monsters, and it could be upgraded to a level 3 building without any worries.
This point alone proved the great value of the foundation stone of a Supreme-grade building!
However, if he wanted to obtain this top-grade cornerstone of a building, he would have to first destroy the Holy Dragon city’s protective barrier.
However, when they carefully observed the strength of the Holy Dragon city’s protective shield, they became dejected.
According to the reaction of the protective shield after being attacked, this damn protective shield was clearly in a state of full energy and would not collapse for a while!
Only the heavens knew how many casualties they would have to pay to destroy the protective barrier.
The mercenary leaders were all complaining to themselves, and some of them regretted taking on this damn mission, because the casualties and gains were not proportional at all.
Moreover, from the current situation, it was not certain who would win!
Just as the mercenary leaders were in a dilemma, the situation on the battlefield changed due to the appearance of the protective shield.
Unknowingly, some of the mercenaries in loucheng had already started to retreat.
The Holy Dragon city’s endless methods had already made them lose their confidence in winning. Saving their lives was the most important thing.
If he lost his life, what right did he have to talk about other things?
These mercenaries were all cunning and experienced, and they were very clear about the characteristics of the protective shield.
Based on the intensity of their current attacks, it was impossible to rely on those random long-range attacks to break the protective shield.
The outcome of this siege battle was already unknown ever since the protective shield appeared!
Only a fool would do such a thing that would lead to his death in vain!
Thinking of this, the mercenaries who were attacking the city slowed down their pace silently, and their momentum also slowed down.
It was also at this moment that Holy Dragon City began to counterattack like a tide!
