Chapter 283 This Peak Battle
The eight magic towers on the mechanical city lit up, and a layer of blue crystal light curtain suddenly appeared above everyone's head, like a huge glass cover covering the entire mechanical city.
In the sky, the flying dragons that were still attacking the mechanical city were also isolated. Whether they spit out wind blades or hit the light blue light shield with their bodies, they could not break this magic barrier.
When attacked, conspicuous diamond-shaped magic patterns will light up on the light curtain. No matter whether it is the energy of magic or physical attack, it seems to be absorbed by the special magic patterns and annihilated in an instant.
"Eight formations, nine-pointed stars, six-ring Akolaze formation pattern... Is this the [Ultimate Elemental Barrier]?"
Ryan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked up at the magic barrier that lit up above his head.
The magic array pattern flashed, and the system immediately compared the source of this barrier.
This was another ancient magic circle, which was recorded in an ancient magic book that he happened to read.
Legend has it that this barrier can absorb energy fluctuations, and because of its special array structure, it can withstand attacks that are several times its own energy level.
Generally speaking, this kind of magic circle arranged with first-level materials can probably resist second-level or even third-level attacks.
Judging from the current situation, even a fifth-level flying dragon was unable to break through this layer of gathering, which proves that the formation of this light curtain is at least at the fifth-level.
This means that even a legendary strongman cannot break it before its energy is exhausted.
But to set up a magic circle that can cover the entire city, the resource consumption alone is an astronomical figure.
Ryan also once again witnessed the heritage of the Glorious City.
The five major families have been operating in Glory City for decades, and they do have a lot of good things hidden in their hands.
…
This sealing barrier directly blocked the escape routes of everyone in the machine.
However, Ryan and the others did not show any surprise when they saw this situation.
For a last-ditch fight?
Or is it for some other hidden purpose?
Although I know that the guys from Glory City must have some purpose in doing this, it is just what they want. This barrier restricts the movements of both sides. They can't leave, and the people from Glory City can't escape either, so they can be killed faster.
Besides, it’s not like they really can’t leave.
Being trapped in the barrier was one of the situations that had been anticipated before the attack.
The moment the light curtain lit up, in a hotel on the bottom floor of the Mechanical City.
In the dim room, several huge monsters were ready to go into battle at any time. They were ferocious heavy mechas, equipped with arc shock black knives, [Angela Black Iron] large shields, sixteen-wheeled Vulcan cannons, eight-cylinder power boilers...
Upon closer inspection, apart from the lack of six arms and slightly smaller size, it is actually Grandpa Tust's simplified version of the "Six-Armed Deer God Armor".
This is another trump card of Black Dragon City, the Mechanic Corps.
"Sir, the entire mechanical city is now trapped by a magic barrier. It is an energy-absorbing barrier with a shield strength of level six. The array-based magic tower is also surrounded by restrictions that cannot be broken by human power..."
"Plan B! Everyone, prepare the [Level IV Goblin Siege Bombs], install them in the direction of the west gate according to Dr. Tust's engineering singularity drawings, and blast them in a directional manner. Wait for the city lord's order, and we will immediately blow through this mechanical city..."
"yes!"
"Our mechanics are not the main force in this attack on the city. Everyone, remember to try not to expose yourself in advance, and don't take the initiative to clash with the city guards..."
"Yes! Captain!"
“…”
In fact, long before the attack, the Black Dragon City’s General Staff had already taken into account various magical barriers.
We knew that there would be legendary forces participating in this war, which meant that if the other party set up a "trap" in the magic barrier, it would definitely be a barrier that even top-level extraordinary people could not break.
The mechanic came to prepare for this situation.
There is no barrier of absolute defense, only attacks with insufficient energy.
Just because a barrier cannot be broken by humans does not mean that it cannot be broken by machines. Mechanics may not be able to deal with the flexible and mobile top-level extraordinary beings, but for the barriers of these inanimate objects, mechas are the perfect choice.
What's more, there is explosives!
Manpower is limited, but for explosives, the difference is just the amount of charge.
But ordinary explosives certainly won’t work.
In order to break this magic barrier that even legendary beings cannot break, the amount of medicine needed would be as much as an entire mountain.
Not to mention that there is no chance to quietly install explosives and ignite them. Even if there is, igniting that kind of uncontrollable bomb, whether the magic shield can be broken or not is one thing, but the person who ignites it will undoubtedly die.
But Black Dragon City has the formula for high explosives from the ancient goblin civilization, and old man Tust has long developed some special explosives that are smaller in size and more powerful.
The explosives in their hands now have actually turned the large barrier that Glorious City spent a huge amount of money to build, which was enough to trap legends, into a mere decoration.
…
At the same time, in the Duke's Mansion on the top floor of the Mechanical City, a war has been triggered.
The people in Glory City also understood that they would fight to the death tonight.
Most of the masters ambushing in the Duke's Mansion were direct descendants of the Glorious City. No one said anything about the decision made by their king, and the only option was to fight to the death.
As for the two legends who served as "foreign aid", one of them, [Black Witch] Dea Vanilla, had no intention of taking chances, so she naturally wanted to fight to the death; and the [Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo was also twisting a big black knife at this moment, with a crazy red light flashing in his eyes, and he was obviously ready to go on a killing spree...
There is also Grandmaster Loki, who also participated in the surprise attack on the Midgard tribe and is tied to the profit chain...
The barrier sealing off the mechanical city seemed to be a signal.
As soon as the top fighters on both sides took action, a strange laugh was heard.
“Hehe…”
Suddenly, the old witch who was proficient in black magic and ancient witchcraft dropped a thumb-sized "bean" to the ground. In an instant, a powerful vitality burst out from the bean.
It was a bit like the expanded foam in Ryan's previous life, which encountered a special chemical reaction and immediately expanded violently.
Then, in the blink of an eye, the "bean" grew in the wind, and green vines as twisted as pythons emerged.
The vines grew rapidly at an incredible speed, ten meters, fifty meters, one hundred meters, three hundred meters... until they reached the top of the barrier, and then they stopped.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the bean instantly expanded hundreds of thousands of times in size. In just a few breaths, it grew into a giant vine with a diameter of tens of meters, and its roots spread towards the lower level of the mechanical city, and it was unknown how deep they had penetrated.
The entire frame and floor of the manor are also filled with the roots of this vine.
"【Tongtian Vine Beans】?"
The ground was suddenly covered with rolling roots, and Ryan was a little unsteady on his feet.
When he saw this magical bean transform into a giant vine hundreds of meters high in an instant, he immediately thought of the story in mythology.
Legend has it that in the mythological period, there was a magical bean that could grow overnight into a magic vine that led to the kingdom of giants in the sky.
Could it be the one in front of me?
Seeing this, Ryan sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, none of the 'Ten Legends' are simple."
[Black Witch] Dea Vanilla is a veteran among the "Ten Legends". The "Silver Leaf Clan" she belongs to is an ancient family that has been passed down in the Sid Empire for thousands of years. She definitely has a lot of cards in her hands. It is not surprising that she can take out the "Senzu Bean" in the myth.
At this time, the Coleman warriors were not idle either. When the beans turned into vines, they shot an arrow and hit the heart of the [Black Witch] Dia.
Unfortunately, no blood was seen and the arrow was nailed to the wooden stake.
Looking closely, the witch's body had turned into a human-shaped wooden stake with sprouting branches. Her body had already merged into the giant vine.
The Mafa High Priest and several others looked at this scene with even colder eyes.
Because they were very familiar with this ability, it was actually the elemental fusion ability of the [Wood Totem]!
This huge vine is full of wood elements, which can continuously replenish her fighting spirit. That witch can use the power of the totem to hide in any part of the vine, making it impossible for people to find her. The entire vine is her hiding place, but it is not her hiding place.
It would be impossible to kill him unless this giant vine, which was tens of meters in diameter and hundreds of meters high, was completely destroyed.
If it were a one-on-one fight, she would be invincible once this giant vine came out.
At this moment, a rapid chanting of magic spells came from the void. It was the witch's voice: "Secret Spell: Tree World Cage!"
This is a magic vine, not a dead object.
The spell was cast almost instantly, and the roots of the vines on the ground came alive in an instant.
Those air roots, like surging strange snakes, coiled around the ankles, trying to control the people from Black Dragon City on the spot.
Seeing this, Ryan pulled away and retreated away from the battlefield.
Although he has already stepped into the high-level extraordinary realm, it is obvious that there is no room for him to intervene in the confrontation between legendary powerhouses.
The battlefield here was left to Mafa and the others.
…
The enemy is coming with great force, but the five legendary warriors of Black Dragon City are also strong and use all their means.
The Great Priest of Mafa looked at the overwhelming vines, without any intention of dodging. But he saw a dark golden luster flashing on his body, and he raised his spear and stabbed it. A sharp white light burst out from the tip of the spear, and in an instant, a large honeycomb-like hole was blasted in the dense vines in front of him.
And under Mafa's strange power, the vines wrapped around his feet were like soft water plants. They broke with a single pull, without any hindrance at all.
At the side, the totem on the face of "Elder Insect Master" Yimuyu also shone brightly, and he chanted an insect-repelling spell.
But when he formed a seal with one hand, the pottery jar hanging on his waist suddenly swarmed with black gauze-like insects. His body was covered with a layer of "black gauze clothes". As soon as the vines climbed up and were stained with black gauze, they immediately fell off as if corroded by strong acid. Not only could they not trap people, but the black insects also bit up along the roots of the trees. If you have a good eye, you can see that the insects chewed the vines as food and reproduced more black insects...
The methods of "Elder Rain Master" Fufa were also extremely sharp. He moved his lips and chanted a string of spells that no one could hear clearly. The vines around him actually shriveled up in the blink of an eye.
The ability to control water elements brought to him by [Rain Totem] not only allows him to cast powerful water magic, but also to strip away water elements!
Bazel and Canossa, two melee-type transcendents, were not to be outdone. They tore through the vines with a grab and a punch, and rushed towards the high-level fighters of the Glory City...
Once the masters of Black Dragon City took action, they unleashed a terrifying fighting power that made the enemy despair.
On the opposite side, the high-level magic group of the City of Glory behind Kipling also cast magic.
"Secret of Earth: Mountain Barrier!"
"Fire Ring Gas Explosion!"
"Great Waterfall Technique!"
"Ophanage: Eight Thousand Flame Bombs!"
"Dark vortex!"
“…”
A fifth-level magician has already mastered the laws of the elements, and the fourth-ring spells they cast instantly are extremely powerful and powerful.
For a moment, the two sides fought, and the entire Duke's Mansion was instantly covered by chaotic energy fluctuations, like a boiling pot of soup, with colorful spells exploding in the pot...
In just this instant of collision, the huge Duke's Mansion was instantly shattered, and the Mechanical City was shaking violently.
At this time, the advantage of the Rattan Armor Army emerged!
The "Legendary Vine Armor" on them is extremely effective in reducing magic damage when facing ranged spells...
This wave was just a shock wave, but the Knight Corps of Glory City suffered heavy casualties, while the Vine Armor Corps was almost safe and sound!
There was a loud explosion, and the battlefield instantly destroyed the Duke's Mansion, spreading to the upper floors of the Mechanical City...
The Duke's Mansion has become the center of the battlefield for top combat forces. Extraordinary people below the fourth level have almost no qualifications to stand at the top.
Chaos, chaos, violent collisions everywhere...
In war, human life is worthless.
Every second, a large number of people die...
This mechanical city has turned into a meat grinder.
The rattan armor army of Black Dragon City is a mill, and the knight army of Glory City is flesh and blood...
…
Ryan and Udo also retreated violently and jumped to the third floor of the mechanical city.
"Lord City Lord, please protect me. I need to cast a spell to control the flying dragon..."
"good!"
As an elder of Coleman, Udo's fighting ability should not be underestimated.
At this time, she looked solemn, with her hands clasped together and chanting a spell. The milky white totem on her skin was shining, and shadows of flying dragons were lingering around her.
She was apparently using her mental power to guide and control the flying dragon in the sky!
Although the barrier blocked the flying dragons in the sky from coming down for support, there were still hundreds of flying dragons in the barrier!
The [Totem of Ten Thousand Beasts] gave her the ability to communicate with all beasts. When she tamed them, she established a mental connection, allowing her to easily remotely control the flying dragons...
Those flying dragons were not very intelligent and originally fought by instinct. But now they were guided like a cluster of fighter planes, blowing away everything in their path with a breath of storm. No enemy could stand up to them wherever they passed.
Although the magician group has explosive damage, their weakness lies in displacement. Without the knight guard corps to create a stable environment for them to cast spells, they are just a group of chickens that can be easily killed.
However, the Flying Dragon Group does not have this shortcoming at all.
They can fly in the sky, move quickly, and dodge various crises flexibly.
Moreover, even if it is hit, the dragon scales can block most of the long-range damage.
Sure enough, no matter in which world, "air supremacy" is the most important thing in war.
After this battle, Black Dragon City’s “flying troops” will definitely open the eyes of the world.
However, even if the two empires or the Glorious City knew this method, they would not be able to replicate it.
Although there are "beast tamers" among the extraordinary, they have nowhere to find flying dragons, and even if they find them, they cannot tame them. Without the blessing of the [Beast Totem], no one can tame a sub-dragon.
As for those very few large birds of prey that can be tamed and can carry people, there are also some.
For example, the "Silver Griffin" domesticated by the Omar royal family. However, this rare species, with only a few dozen in the entire tribe, cannot be scaled up, is completely useless on the battlefield, and cannot compare to a flying dragon.
It can be said that the current "Flying Dragon Vine Armor Army" of Black Dragon City is definitely the strongest combat corps in the world.
Their combat power far exceeds the long-famous “three invincible legions”: Omar’s “First Royal Mechanic Legion”, Sid’s “Undead Vampire Legion”, and Glory City’s “Storm Mage Legion”!
Unique in the world.
…
Ryan looked at Wu Duo who was concentrating on casting a spell with his eyes closed, and then he realized that this "barbarian girl" who had always been a little girl in his eyes had unknowingly stepped into the realm of top-level powerhouses.
Although her physical combat power is not strong, her ability to control a flying dragon is definitely not inferior to any top-level extraordinary person in terms of destructive power.
Even stronger.
Ryan didn't run around either, but stayed carefully beside Udo.
The battlefield moved from the Duke's Mansion on the top floor to the middle area of the Mechanical City, where there are complex steel-structured houses, cabins, bridges... Group combat command is no longer of much significance, and the troops of both sides entered into fierce street fighting.
Alleys, building shadows... these are also the best hunting grounds for assassins.
Suddenly, Ryan frowned and exclaimed in his heart: "Fifth-level assassin?"
Although he didn't see anyone approaching, he knew that there was a sneaky guy approaching.
For the extraordinary people in the assassin sequence, hiding their aura is a genetic awakening ability. Especially for the top assassins, after they sneak, they are extremely difficult to detect because they are not extraordinary people of the perception system.
With Ryan's current perception ability, it is naturally impossible for him to detect a top assassin in stealth.
But he couldn't sense his surroundings, but "Pika" could clearly sense the slight movement of free lightning elements in the air.
The lurking enemy was about thirty meters away. In order not to be discovered, he approached very cautiously and slowly.
At this time, Ryan did not give him another chance and whispered: "One billion volts!"
At the same time, the thunder crow on his shoulder released a stream of purple lightning as thick as a water tank towards a certain direction behind him.
“Hiss…hiss…hiss…”
There was a sound of electric current, and a flash of purple light appeared, revealing a figure holding a dagger.
Ryan looked at the scratches on his chest and recognized him immediately. Wasn't this fifth-level leader the leader of the "Black Skull Phantom Thieves" who had attacked the banquet hall before?
At this moment, as soon as Ryan's eyes fell on the man, he pushed off the ground and punched him.
Several Coleman warriors who were on guard not far away also rushed forward and attacked from multiple sides.
However, that guy was also extremely cautious. The moment he was paralyzed by the electric shock, his body instinctively leaned back and fell to the lower level of the mechanical city.
If the attack fails, he will immediately withdraw, reacting decisively and skillfully.
By the time Ryan dodged and chased to the edge of the fence, the guy's figure had disappeared in the shadows between the steel high-rise buildings.
Several Coleman warriors chased after him, but Ryan ignored the assassin and returned to Udo. He wanted to protect her from being disturbed while she was controlling the Dragon Squadron. Her combat power was better than that of a thousand high-level warriors...
…
If the battle continues like this, Glory City will surely lose. Black Dragon City has an overwhelming advantage...
At this time, an accident happened.
Suddenly, a sad dragon roar was heard in the sky.
Looking closely, it turned out to be a flying dragon whose neck was cut off by an exaggerated black sword energy, falling from the sky. Warm blood poured down, and the dragon's body fell right in front of Ryan, crashing onto the floor below.
Ryan looked up and saw the bloody figure standing on the top vine. He showed a solemn and expected expression and muttered, "That guy, is he possessed by a demon?..."
