Chapter 125: Just This Time
"I have a way to organize the demon beasts from continuing to climb the city wall until the magic crystal cannon cools down."
"Who is it?" Zhuge Tianxin's sudden appearance made the guards beside the general immediately alert, shouting and rushing toward Zhuge Tianxin and Nangong Miss Mengli, and then surrounded them.
"General, I am the mercenary Zhuge Tianxin. Just now, I saw on the city wall that during the cooling time of the magic crystal cannon, the demon beasts under the city quickly rushed up the city wall. Now we can still deal with the demon beasts on the city wall, but if we don't find a way to stop the demon beasts under the city from climbing the city, with Huayuan City's current strength, we won't be able to hold on. So we must find a way to stop the demon beasts under the city from climbing the city wall during the cooling time of the magic crystal cannon, so we have a possibility to win this war." Zhuge Tianxin said to the general.
"What is your method?" A middle-aged man in his forties walked out from behind the soldiers surrounding Zhuge Tianxin and Nangong Miss Mengli and said directly to Zhuge Tianxin. This person was the Huayuan City defense general Huang Tianhua. Huang Tianhua had been guarding Huayuan City for twenty years and knew that Zhuge Tianxin must have a way to come here, so he didn't say much and asked Zhuge Tianxin's method directly.
"I want to show you something. Miss Mengli, Double Wind Roll." Zhuge Tianxin didn't directly say his plan, but said he wanted to show Huang Tianhua something, and didn't explain anything to Huang Tianhua, directly letting Nangong Miss Mengli use the Double Wind Roll.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—! * Two small wind rolls formed in Nangong Miss Mengli's hands, and then were thrown out of the city wall by Nangong Miss Mengli. The two wind rolls grew rapidly after leaving Nangong Miss Mengli's jade hands. When they reached under the city wall, they had already become wind rolls as thick as an adult's waist. Subsequently, these two wind rolls collided with each other before hitting the "demon beast." Because of the force of the collision, a chaotic airflow was formed, which greatly strengthened the power of the wind roll, forming a variant wind roll like a winch that strangled toward that "demon beast." After hitting that "demon beast," the chaotic airflow continuously cut that "demon beast," and at the same time, the variant wind roll also cut that "demon beast" like a rotating blade, finally strangling that "demon beast." Nangong Miss Mengli also knew that she was persuading Huang Tianhua now, so the wind roll she used this time was also more powerful than the previous double wind roll. After strangling that demon beast, the double wind roll did not disappear, but continued to strangle toward another relatively small "demon beast," and also killed it before slowly disappearing.
"Say your plan directly." Huang Tianhua was an orthodox soldier, and his words and actions were in the style of a soldier, straightforward.
"I need the help of all Wind-element mages." Zhuge Tianxin didn't talk nonsense and directly put forward his request.
"Come here, call all the Wind-element mages over." Huang Tianhua was not a sloppy person either, and directly asked people to call all the Wind-element mages over.
About five or six minutes later, Huang Tianhua's subordinates brought twenty-three mages over. Seeing his subordinates bring these twenty-three mages, Huang Tianhua pointed to Zhuge Tianxin and said to the twenty-three people: "From now on, you all listen to his command. What he says is equivalent to my order." "Yes." The answer was neat and uniform. Although they were very confused about Huang Tianhua's order, as soldiers, these twenty-three mages still obeyed Huang Tianhua's order.
"Hmm." Seeing the twenty-three mages answer, Huang Tianhua was very satisfied, then turned his head to look at Zhuge Tianxin and said: "Brat, I have already found the people for you. They will listen to your command completely, but I will say the ugly words first. If your plan cannot stop those beasts under the city from continuing to climb the city wall, leading to the breaking of Huayuan City, then I will definitely hunt you down until you die." After speaking, he directly released the aura of a Rank 6 Mind User.
Facing Huang Tianhua's Rank 6 Mind User mental power, Zhuge Tianxin remained unmoved. Although Zhuge Tianxin was only a Rank 5 Mind User, after practicing the soul, Zhuge Tianxin's mental power was too powerful compared to ordinary Rank 5 Mind Users, and could even be equivalent to the mental power of a Rank 6 Mind User. So when facing Huang Tianhua's mental power, Zhuge Tianxin couldn't feel the suppression at all.
"Whether it can succeed or not depends not on my plan, but on the strength of your mages. Since you are also a mid-rank martial artist, then you also help together. Later, you and I will use mental power to attack the wind roll together." Facing Huang Tianhua's mental power, Zhuge Tianxin said calmly. After speaking, he turned his head to the twenty-three mages and said: "Since you have accepted the order to listen to my command, then from now on you must listen to my arrangements completely. Of course, I will also do my best to stop the demon beasts under the city from continuing to climb the city wall and do my part to resist this war. Now I order you to disperse on the city wall, one person every five meters. After completion, wait for my order. After receiving the order, everyone use wind rolls toward the outside of the city as much as possible, but note that all wind rolls cannot overlap together. Do you hear clearly?"
"Heard clearly." It was another neat and uniform answer, which made Zhuge Tianxin believe even more that this plan could succeed.
"Now, start acting." "Yes." Zhuge Tianxin gave an order, and the twenty-three mages dispersed directly to both sides. Because they all awakened Wind-element magic, their movement speed was very fast. Soon they reached the designated position, and Zhuge Tianxin also saw the right time and gave an order. The twenty-three people immediately released wind rolls at the fastest speed. Twenty-three huge wind rolls formed under Huayuan City instantly. These wind rolls were not the wind rolls that Nangong Miss Mengli used when she just awakened Wind-element magic. Most of these twenty-three people were Rank 4 mages, a small part were Rank 5 mages, and there was even a mage who had just broken through Rank 5 and entered Rank 6. Their Wind-element magic had already awakened several years ago. This kind of Wind-element magic that could be used as long as it was awakened was completely easy for them, but the power was more than ten times stronger than Nangong Miss Mengli's double wind roll.
*Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—! * Twenty-three mages, each casting magic would form twenty-three huge wind rolls. Soon nearly two hundred wind rolls appeared, basically covering the area under the city wall with huge wind rolls. It was a pity that although these wind rolls looked very spectacular, the effect on those thick-skinned demon beasts under the city was very small.
*Roar—! * Nearly two hundred wind rolls appeared together. The airflow formed at the beginning lifted a part of the "demon beasts" that rushed up, causing a certain chaos. But it didn't take long for the "demon beasts" rushing up from behind to be prepared and stand firm. Although the speed of advance slowed down, they gradually adapted to these airflows, and even gathered more and more, forming a state where the wind roll wall and the "demon beast" group were in a stalemate.
"It's time." Zhuge Tianxin saw that the wind rolls were all ready, groaned, and then shouted loudly: "Just this time." ===== CHAPTER 126 =====
