Chapter 1214 - Chapter 1214 Chapter 731 The Figure on the City Wall_1

Chapter 1214: Chapter 731: The Figure on the City Wall_1 Chapter 1214: Chapter 731: The Figure on the City Wall_1 “Raise your shields! Take cover!”

Seeing the lethal shower of arrows above them, Kara immediately shouted loudly.

As a veteran commander who had experienced numerous life-and-death situations on the battlefield, Kara instantly hugged the slow-reacting Quinn Serena beside her and pushed her under the crenellations. In this position, they were almost in the blind spot of the arrows from below the city walls.

However, because the enemy’s attack was so sudden, many unprepared archers on the Lord’s side were struck down by the arrows. The sharp arrowheads pierced their leather armor and flesh, and then passed through their bodies, leaving a red trail and stirring up a series of screams.

Even a considerable number of shield-bearing infantry were hit by the arrows, which knocked them down under the immense impact and pinned them to the ground, making it difficult or even impossible for them to stand up again.

Fortunately, the numerous stone arrow towers on the city walls obstructed the incoming arrows, ensuring that the other Lords and their subordinates stationed in the towers did not suffer any significant damage.

However, the continuous screams and the howling of arrows that filled their surroundings caused most of the Lords and their subordinates to lose their ability to counterattack. They huddled in the corners, trembling in fear.

In their minds, all they could see were the lethal arrows that filled the sky, the air filled with the scent of blood, and corpses lying on the ground.

But this was only the first wave of the attack.

Under Earl Jenkins’ command, the long-range army of the new aristocracy below the city walls conducted a standard and effective alternating fire.

So before the first wave of arrows had even completely fallen, the second wave of concentrated arrows was already howling towards them.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The concentrated and sharp arrows continued to rain down.

After only a few short rounds, the sparse counterattack of arrows from the city walls had almost completely stopped.

Although Kara and Quinn Serena were shouting loudly and encouraging the warriors around them, the vast majority of the archer troops, consisting of Lords and peasant hunters who were new to the battlefield, did not dare to raise their heads, allowing the enemy’s arrows to fall unchecked on every corner of the city walls.

Atop the city walls, the only deterrent left was the elite mage squad led by the Grand Elder of the Rivers Family.

Under the command of the Grand Elder, the elite mage squad used the five Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons they had just seized to alternately pour magic fire down at the city below. Since the Magic Cannons were all deployed in the arrow towers, the enemies armed only with bows and arrows could not find a way to counter them for the time being.

However, since this elite mage squad had already consumed a significant amount of magic power in the previous intense battles and because these magic cannons lacked Demon Energy Luminous Crystals for continuous power supply, the remaining magic power of these exhausted mages was quickly drained.

After all, launching a Tier 2 Magic Cannon required at least ten Tier 2 magic powerhouses to supply energy together to reach the threshold of launching the cannon.

On the other hand, the enemy mages below the city walls who specialized in magical defense had already built a magic shield in cooperation, making the five Magic Cannons virtually ineffective in inflicting any damage.

Against the opponent’s five legions, these five Magic Cannons or the power of a single elite mage squad alone were indeed inadequate.

Seeing that the elite mage squad had almost no effect, the Lords and their subordinates on the city walls appeared even more panicked and helpless.

They were facing a formidable army of 50,000 bloodthirsty soldiers. How could a few thousand amateur newcomers stand a chance against such an existence?

“These idiots on the walls have already lost their will to resist after just a few rounds?”

Earl Jenkins stared coldly at the silent and fireless peak of Galaxy City, scoffing disdainfully, “What a bunch of rubbish opponents.”

With that said, Earl Jenkins decisively nodded to his second-in-command, signaling that the siege could begin.

A chorus of chants rang out as the four elite magician squads of the new aristocracy cooperated to cast their spells.

In no time, two giant magic arch bridges, wide enough for twenty soldiers to march side by side, magically emerged and eventually connected to the towering city walls of Galaxy City on either side.

These two magic bridges were primarily made of earth magic, mixed with traces of ice magic and plant magic, which formed the basis of their structure. With wide staircases built beneath for easy climbing, it was evident that these bridges were the product of countless rehearsals of a compound bridge-building spell specifically designed for sieges.

“Attack the city walls and kill all the scum inside!”

Seeing that everything was in place, Earl Jenkins issued a command with a murderous expression on his face: “Attack!”

At this point, the new aristocracy’s soldiers who had been waiting under the magic bridges immediately rushed forward in a formation that placed heavy infantry at the front, long spearmen in the middle, and swordsmen and axemen at the rear.

From the disciplined formation during their charge, it was apparent that these well-trained new aristocracy soldiers were in a completely different league from the reserve soldiers of Galaxy City from before.

For a moment, the fury of at least four grand battalions surged as they roared and brandished their weapons, swarming towards the crumbling defense of the Lane Lord and his subordinates atop the city walls!
