Chapter 235 Snatching the fruits of victory
The capital of the Laner Empire, as the base camp of wizards, the Wizards Association's operations here are naturally deep enough. The entire south of the city, except for the suburbs near the city wall, is basically assigned to the Wizards Association by the imperial family.
All senior members of the Wizarding Association can be allocated a residence in this area. In addition, there are a large number of magical buildings belonging to the Wizarding Association in this area, which is equivalent to the existence of a city within a city.
And the meteor fall released by Vivienne is mainly aimed at this area.
Two minutes after the battle started, the meteor shower continued to fall.
The sky was bombarded with flames, and the entire southern part of the city was riddled with holes. Countless people ran away screaming during the bombardment, and then died after being hit by the meteorite.
Guard knights can also resurrect and return to their barracks to avoid natural disasters, but wizards cannot avoid it, because their resurrection point is under the wizard tower, so they can only die repeatedly in this area.
Not only people, but also all kinds of buildings have been turned into ruins in the constant blasting. There are broken walls and ruins everywhere. The houses that can be seen are basically razed to the ground. The harder magic buildings are also destroyed. crumbling.
The blood-red sky reflects this land that is suffering from natural disasters into a scene of purgatory. Looking up, there are flames soaring into the sky, thick smoke billowing, and miserable wailing everywhere...
However, in this devastated area, there is only one place, like an ark floating in the sea, which perfectly escaped every meteorite.
Jiuyou and the others looked at the scene of devastated creatures around them, and countless fireballs flew past their edges, exploding in all directions, they were all terrified.
Although there are no meteorites in their area, there are dead eggs under the nest, and the indirect damage caused by the shock wave and heat wave will not be less.
However, for these trivial injuries, everyone can still survive relatively safely by relying on various defensive methods and continuous treatment.
"Get ready to defend." It was Lin Xue who was at the front of the crowd who spoke.
This scythe girl, who had been taciturn since her appearance, suddenly spoke at this moment, making everyone stunned.
Jiuyou was the first to realize that in this devastated land, only they were safe here, so the only choice for others after experiencing repeated deaths was to rush towards them.
And the facts were not as he expected, as the number and number of deaths of wizards and knights around them increased rapidly, more and more people noticed their immovable highland in the midst of natural disasters.
At first, only scattered enemies attacked them. After being repulsed by them several times, the wizards seemed to have reached a certain consensus. At a certain moment, they suddenly gathered and attacked the player team frantically.
The player team naturally resisted with all their strength. Unlike the previous attack, this time it became their defensive round.
Fortunately, Mu You chose this area on purpose, and he didn't choose it randomly. This area is the only highland nearby, and there are slopes on all sides, which can be said to be easy to defend but difficult to attack.
What's more, at this moment, these wizards who are attacking have to beware of meteorites in the sky at any time, otherwise they will be blown up if they are not careful, and 10% of their strength will not be able to exert 30% of their strength. The players used all means to defend with all their strength. This kind of large-scale team battle will inevitably lead to casualties, but the defensive front has always remained stable, and there is no chance for the enemy to rush to the high ground.
Seeing that the formation has stabilized, Jiuyou was very relieved. At this time, he began to miss the sea of flowers on the other side just now. I was busy attacking before, so I didn't feel how powerful those flowers were. It wasn't until I was really facing the impact at this moment that I really realized what kind of defensive weapon it was. Among other things, if there is a sea of flowers around their formation at this time, how dare these wizards be so presumptuous?
Jiuyou thought about it, and subconsciously searched for the crowd, wanting to see the movement of the scythe girl. As a result, after looking at it, they found that Lin Xue was no longer in the team.
…
At this time, Lin Xue had already appeared hundreds of meters away, where the person in purple was.
The purple-clothed man is probably the only one in the wizarding team at this time who has the ability to resist the meteorite.
As early as the first wave of meteorites fell, he immediately set up a huge protective shield above his head, protecting the surrounding space of more than ten meters.
After the bombing started, the wizards all around crawled and ran to seek shelter under his protective cover. At the same time, they also supported the defensive cover to help the purple-clothed man relieve pressure.
"Boom boom boom..."
A large number of meteorites constantly hit the surface of the dark blue magic shield, each time causing the shield to tremble violently and become crumbling.
Suffering heavy blows one after another, the purple-clothed person below is of course unlikely to be safe and sound, and his magic power and physical strength are rapidly consumed, but at this moment the group of people around him are counting on him, and he can only grit his teeth to support him.
But this is just his wishful thinking, he can persist, but some people will not allow him to persist.
While the purple-clothed man was struggling to support himself, he suddenly felt a strong wave of magic coming from the side. He turned his head and saw the scythe girl flashing between the lava, and was shocked.
"Get out of the way!"
It was already too late when the purple-clothed man shouted out. The moment Lin Xue appeared, there was a raging storm of flames, which spread around her and spread across the area guarded by the purple-clothed man in an instant. , all the people in the area except the purple-clothed people were thrown out, and many people were burned to death by the flames in the storm. .
The only surviving purple-clothed person was also uncomfortable. Less than half a second after the flames filled the air, he had already seen a ball of light floating quietly towards him. The speed was so slow, but he felt a deadly threat in it.
So the man in purple gave up without hesitation and continued to support the magic shield, rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the ball of light.
The choice of the purple-clothed man is correct, otherwise he will follow in the footsteps of the white-clothed man, be hit by the magic power block, fall into a 16-second magic blockade state, and then be taken away by the death scythe.
At the same time that the purple-clothed man dodged, Lin Xue was already chasing after him quickly, waving the sickle in his hand, drawing a beautiful arc, accurately drawing a line of blood on the purple-clothed man, and leaving a mark of death at the same time . Immediately without stopping, continue to catch up with the attack.
The man in purple was very angry about this, but he had no choice but to retreat while fighting.
If it was one-on-one, he would not be afraid to fight with each other, but at this moment, he is on the battlefield where meteors are constantly falling. Lin Xue's super high agility attribute can ensure that she can move freely and freely on the battlefield, flying through thousands of flowers. , a leaf does not stick to the body.
But the purple-clothed man couldn't do it. He had to devote most of his energy to avoid the meteor, which was equivalent to being tied up. Of course, he couldn't fight Lin Xue.
The man in purple fights and retreats, while avoiding the meteor, while looking for a way to fight back. However, he soon discovered that there were more and more death marks on his body, from the first one to seven unconsciously!
The person in purple had seen the power of the death scythe on the other side. Once she superimposed it to ten knives, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Clang!"
While thinking, another burst of white light flashed across, the man in purple couldn't dodge, and another wound was drawn on his wrist.
As the eighth mark quietly emerged, the purple-clothed man was finally scared. While backing away, he hurriedly took out a scroll of returning to the city from his body, and quickly tore it open.
As the huge teleportation array light appeared around the purple-clothed man, Lin Xue finally stopped chasing, dragged the sickle in hand, and stood silently aside, until she confirmed with her own eyes that the purple-clothed man teleported away and took away fifteen other wizards from the scene After that, he left the spot and continued to run towards the next spot.
The other wizards who were still dying at the scene saw that the purple-clothed people used the scrolls to escape, and their morale was greatly reduced. Many people activated the scrolls and ran away on the spot.
In a short while, countless teleportation circles appeared on the scene, and disappeared in place after spinning for two seconds.
It's a pity that even in the Wizards Association, the popularity rate of such a valuable thing as the City Portal Scroll is not high. After all the wizards who can teleport have escaped, more than half of the wizards are still left on the scene. There is no escape. Can continue to struggle to survive in the meteorite rain.
And just when the wizards were desperate, a faint blue light of the protective cover lit up again on the top of the wizard tower, like a lighthouse, attracting the attention of all the wizards.
Under repeated impacts of meteorites, the sixteen-story Wizard Tower has been bombarded and only ten floors remain.
At this time, on the top of the tower on the tenth floor, the man in yellow stood alone, with his hands raised high, and a magic shield condensed on the top of his head, resisting the meteors that hit the wizard tower with his own strength.
"It's the man in yellow!"
"Our elders are still here!"
…
Seeing the man in yellow reappear on the battlefield, the wizards cheered up immediately and planned to move towards the wizard tower.
However, before they were happy for a long time, the figure of the man in yellow on the top of the tower suddenly became trembling, as if he had seen something terrifying, he was sweating all over, his eyes were wide open, his hands were shaking violently, and the top of his head was shaking. The protective shield has also become crumbling.
"The man in yellow...is suffering from sun sickness..."
Among the confusion of many wizards, one of the wizards who was familiar with the man in yellow told the truth.
The other wizards fell silent when they heard the words.
Everyone has heard of the sun sickness of the man in yellow. It is said that in the battle with the Calamity Witch, the man in yellow protected the wizard tower from being destroyed by himself, but he also suffered from severe sun sickness. Extremely painful, accompanied by strong dizziness and other symptoms.
Nearly a hundred years have passed, and everyone thought that the man in yellow's sun sickness would have been cured long ago, but they didn't expect that it would be exposed in another battle with the Calamity Witch.
Although it was night and there was no sun, countless meteors fell in the sky, each of which was a small sun to the man in yellow, so it was not difficult to understand that his sunday syndrome would recur.
Finally, the man in yellow couldn't hold on, and the magic power inevitably stopped, and the protective shield above his head disappeared for a short time.
And within a second of the protection disappearing, a meteorite hit the top of the tower with precision as if it had been calculated.
Everyone saw a burst of flames, and half a floor of the top of the tower was shattered again.
Countless burning ruins flew down, and the figure of the man in yellow followed the stones and fell down.
Some wizards who were close could see it clearly. At this moment, the man in yellow, with his eyes turned white and bleeding profusely from his body, had clearly fallen into a faint, and fell straight down from a height of tens of meters.
Just at this moment, a red figure quickly swept across the battlefield, jumped up, and attacked the falling man in yellow with a sickle in his hand.
There was a burst of exclamation from below, and all the wizards expressed their extreme contempt for this man's action of taking advantage of others.
Fortunately, when the sickle was about to hit, a blue light struck from the side, collided with the red shadow, and sent out a crisp golden and iron chime.
After one touch, Lin Xue landed first, and the man in green caught the man in yellow in mid-air, and then landed on the opposite tower.
"Wait a minute, let's talk, how about a truce!" Seeing that the girl in red was about to attack with a sickle again, the man in green hurriedly said.
"What do you mean?" Lin Xue asked with a sickle in front of her body.
"You have also seen that if we continue to fight, both of us will lose. And your goal is to destroy the Arcane Tower in the Wizard Tower. In this case, I will give the Wizard Tower to you, but only if you also Let our surviving wizards go!" The man in blue said calmly while holding a magic shield in one hand to defend against the meteorite above.
"Are you sure it's a lose-lose? No matter how you look at it now, the initiative and the advantage are on our side." Lin Xue also responded calmly.
If the fight continues, not to mention all annihilation, but at least she believes that they have the ability to kill these wizards on a large scale, thus greatly weakening the energy of the wizard association.
"Yes, if we continue to fight, we will indeed suffer heavy losses, but you should not underestimate the power of the Wizarding Association. The background and cards accumulated by the Wizarding Association for nearly a thousand years are far from being as simple as they appear on the surface. If you really want to Let's fight to the death, I promise, before all our people are lost, all these ordinary fools under your command will also be buried here!" The man in blue said with certainty.
Lin Xue frowned slightly upon hearing this. Intuitively, she felt that the other party didn't seem to be lying.
And if what he said is true, then it is true that the fight should not continue. Fighting with their lives, eliminating the main members of the Wizarding Association here is of course a good deal for the entire human level.
But for the Celestial Dynasty, it is an absolute disaster. After all, the human world is not monolithic. If a country's strongest power is exchanged with other world forces, what you get in exchange will definitely not be respect, but encroachment by other countries. .
Lin Xue was a little uncertain, and the person in Tsing Yi seemed to know this, and suddenly said to the sky: "Senior Vivienne, I know you can hear our conversation just now, if you agree with the junior's point of view, please let go I will lead the other wizards to evacuate and leave the capital to you." He knew that the disaster witch was located in the master control room of the wizard tower, and the master control room could monitor any movement near the wizard tower in real time, so the person in Tsing Yi was sure that the other party could hear her. to his words.
"The Wizarding Association has found a good successor..."
Vivian's exclamation sounded in Mu You's ear.
"Are you going to let them go?" Mu You asked, but he already had a judgment in his heart.
As the provider of crystal energy, no one knows better than him that the energy in the twelve crystals is actually close to exhaustion, and the meteor fall cannot last for too long.
"Let's go..."
Vivian's understanding of the Wizarding Association is much better than that of Mu You, so she naturally understands that the words of the man in Tsing Yi are true.
"Besides, if the destruction continues, other forces in the imperial capital should also have opinions..."
The imperial capital of the Laner Empire is the most economically and academically developed area in the entire star spiritual world. Of course, the forces entrenched here are not only the Wizards Association, but also many forces including the church.
These forces haven’t emerged yet, just because this battle didn’t harm their interests, on the contrary, it also provided them with opportunities for vested interests, so they are all sitting on the sidelines and watching the tigers fight.
Continue to fight, anything is possible.
Anyway, the goal has been achieved, so they simply took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's retreat to take over this step and bring this battle to an end.
Outside, the wizards suddenly discovered that the meteor swarm above their heads seemed to have undergone some changes.
The meteorite group is still falling, but the direction of the fall seems to be biased.
Amidst the devastation, a long and narrow passage not covered by meteors formed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leading directly from the wizard tower to the southern city gate.
"Everyone, follow me, retreat!"
The man in green didn't seem surprised by this result, and didn't dare to waste any time at the moment. The man in yellow rushed into the passage first, and went straight out of the city.
His voice echoed on the battlefield like rolling thunder. After a moment of stupefaction, the other wizards understood what it meant.
Along the road, a large number of wizards followed behind the man in green, entered the passage, formed a long dragon, rushed out quickly, and quickly evacuated out of the city gate.
The meteorite rain in the sky also stopped at this moment.
Following the fall of the last meteorite, after a crater was smashed on the ground, the earth, which was noisy in the middle of the night, finally returned to stillness.
On the high ground in the distance, the players watched this scene in a daze. They couldn't believe it until they saw all the wizards evacuate out of the city and the meteor shower stopped.
As far as the eye can see, except for the half-removed tower in front of it, all the surrounding areas have been razed to the ground, a scene of ruins in the end.
"The Wizarding Association... retreated?"
"It seems...abandoned the city and fled..."
"we won?"
"Yes, I won!"
Jiuyou took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart, because he knew that although the enemy retreated, there were still more important things to do.
"Quick, go push the tower!"
This battle is too thrilling and twists and turns, it's a long night and dreamy, now we must destroy the tower as soon as possible, and let everything settle.
"Hurry up."
"Do it all!"
Others naturally understood that time was running out, and when Jiuyou gave an order, they all jumped off the high ground and rushed to the wizard tower as fast as they could.
At the same time, the earth has also received the news as soon as possible, and hastily sent text messages to all boarding players, asking them to go online to help break the tower.
Of course the players would not refuse this. After finally repelling the enemy, now is the time to pick up the results of the battle. One by one scrambling to get online, they also ran to the wizard tower together.
On the other hand, other ordinary players also tried to go online one after another, and found that the battle was over, and there was only one unattended ruined tower left on the scene. They were all overjoyed. in the team.
In just a few minutes, more and more fools appeared in the imperial capital again, attacking the wizard tower like hungry wolves.
Soon, densely packed players surrounded the wizard tower.
In the meteorite bombing just now, more than half of the Wizard Tower and the Arcane Tower inside it have been bombed down. According to the information fed back from the Muyou Omniscient Crystal, the current Arcane Tower is only 47% intact. .
That is to say, the strength of their twelve mystics has contributed at least 53% of the output of the Arcane Tower, and on average, each of them has contributed 4.5%.
Of course, the actual ratio cannot be calculated like this. Among the twelve people, the Lord of the Abyss, that is, the Taurus, must have occupied the largest share, but she is not a fool. I don’t know if this part of the contribution will be counted. Drain away.
Among the other eleven people, Mu You's contribution must be the highest. He has two crystals by himself, and the intelligence value under double the vampire skin is also the most among all people, and the final calculation contribution must be the highest.
Mu You estimated that out of a total of 53% output, he should be able to get a 6%-8% output. The other ten people averaged around 3%.
This ratio doesn’t look like much, but in the competition of thousands of people at the scene, each person can only get less than 0.1% of the contribution, which is already absolutely outstanding.
However, Mu You will not be satisfied with this. After the meteor shower stopped, he controlled Vivienne's body, left the wizard tower immediately, and summoned a series of summoned creatures such as the fire giant on the spot, and launched an attack on the nearby wizard tower. In order to attack, strive for contributions at the last moment as much as possible.
Beside Lin Xue also rushed over immediately, and also summoned a large number of summoned creatures. Together with Mu You, before the others arrived, they occupied the best output position and stepped up their attacks.
At this moment, except for Taurus, the energy transmission of the other nine people has been suspended. The contributions made by the two of them by manipulating the legendary body are all their own, and they don’t need to distribute it to others, just open the output.
At the same time, on the mountainside, while Mu You continued to supply energy, he also recruited a wooden avatar from the side, allowing him to blend in with the crowd below. He quickly touched around the wizard tower and found a more comfortable one nearby. The position is guarded.
Now the Arcane Tower is surrounded by more than 2,000 players, and there are still a steady stream of players online to participate in the destruction of the tower. It seems that it is a certainty to tear down the Arcane Tower.
But next, Mu You still has one very important thing to do, and that is to **** the last blow!
