Chapter 55: War Breaks Out

~8 min read 1,480 words

Zhuge Tianxin felt very deeply about the legend that everyone in Luoxiang City praised, because he also grew up listening to similar legends. Isn't the legend of Master Tianxin about how Master Tianxin led people to build Tianxin Town through hardships? However, Zhuge Tianxin was still despised by Qing Xuan'er for this, because Qing Xuan'er felt that Zhuge Tianxin wouldn't be so emotional. Qing Xuan'er felt that the reason Zhuge Tianxin cared about Luoxiang City's affairs was entirely for the secret treasure of Luoxiang City.

Zhuge Tianxin finally knew the meaning of the sentence that reasoning with a woman is never possible. Even if Qing Xuan'er is still a little loli now, it is still impossible to reason with her. So Zhuge Tianxin automatically filtered out Qing Xuan'er's contempt and continued to search for a place to conduct the Hunter assessment. Zhuge Tianxin didn't know when the Hunter assessment would start or when it would end, so he had to find a place to assess as soon as possible, otherwise he would have to wait another year.

"Clang, clang, clang..." Just as Zhuge Tianxin was looking for the Hunter assessment point, a rapid bell sound suddenly came from the city. Afterward, the sound of screeching hinges rubbing against each other came from the city gate. Then, with a boom, a heavy iron gate fell directly, smashing onto the ground and closing the city gate. Columns of troops began to appear on the street, running toward the city tower. After they arrived at the city tower, they immediately climbed the city wall quickly and stood in formation. Then, every one hundred meters, seven people came out of the ranks to lift the canvas covering the cannons, and then specialized personnel drew some arrays on these cannons. It wasn't until these cannons lit up with light blue light that they pushed these cannons to the gaps in the battlements and stuck them there.

After installing these cannons, the soldiers who were originally surrounding the cannons left two personnel, and the person who drew the arrays on the cannons operated these cannons together. The remaining five returned to the ranks and picked up swords and bows from the side to guard the cannons. Moreover, many arrow clusters and steel bars were placed by the battlements that stuck the cannons. Each of these steel bars was as thick as an adult's arm and about two meters long. Every twenty meters, there was a building similar to a bunker, and from these buildings, black gun muzzles extended. Each of these gun muzzles was two fingers thick, and one could imagine how amazing the power of the bullets fired from these guns was.

"Everyone listen up! This time, the Kingdom Organization has sent a Spirit Tamer and a Demon Spirit Tamer legion. These Demon Spirit Tamer legions are nothing to be afraid of; the most terrifying thing is that Spirit Tamer. They control ten spirit beasts at the same time, and each spirit beast is the beast king of that ethnic group. What we are about to face is ten beast group legions and one Demon Spirit Tamer legion. Therefore, everyone must pay attention to those ten beast king spirit beasts during the battle. If you find them, try your best to kill them. Only then can we strike the enemy to the greatest extent. Does everyone hear clearly?" Just as the soldiers were preparing for the war, a middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from the city wall, spreading outward through a loudspeaker.

"Heard clearly!" After the middle-aged man's voice, the soldiers on the city wall answered collectively. The sound was deafening, making people feel spirited.

Roar... But at this moment, a sound of beast roars came from outside the city wall. This sound even covered the soldiers' answer to the middle-aged man earlier, making people feel lingering fear unconsciously, and the blood-boiling mood that had just been infected instantly turned cold.

Only then did I see that the ground and the air about one hundred meters away from the Luoxiang City wall were filled with dense magic beast groups. These magic beast groups were divided into ten phalanxes and lined up. Each phalanx had at least nearly ten thousand magic beasts. In addition, there was an extremely conspicuous phalanx on the far right of these magic beast phalanxes, because this phalanx was different from the other ten phalanxes. This phalanx was composed entirely of humans, but some characteristics similar to beasts appeared on these humans, as if they were a combination of humans and beasts.

Looking at these enemy phalanxes one hundred meters away on the city wall, those soldiers swallowed their saliva unconsciously, and their hands holding weapons were trembling slightly.

Roar, roar, roar... But the beast groups under the city wouldn't care about these. They seemed to have received some order and began to accelerate rapidly toward the city wall. And because the flying magic beasts had the advantage of flight, their speed of approaching the city wall was also the fastest. Before long, they had entered the attack range of the archers and gunners in the bunkers on the city wall.

"Archers, Firearms Masters, attack!" The middle-aged man's voice came out through the loudspeaker again.

Boom, boom, boom... Swish, swish, swish... Following the middle-aged man's order, the soldiers on the city wall immediately launched an attack. Countless arrows and bullets flew toward the flying magic beasts that were approaching first like a torrential rain. Ga, ga, ga... A burst of bird wails suddenly came from the sky, and then pieces of flying magic beasts fell from the sky, gradually covering the ground. However, at this time, the magic beasts following these flying magic beasts had already rushed over. These shot-down flying magic beasts, whether dead or not, were trampled into meat paste by the magic beasts coming from behind and died completely.

Ga, ga, ga... Although a portion of the flying magic beasts were shot down, that was only a minority. Most of the flying magic beasts still passed through the hail of bullets and arrows and continued to approach the city wall. Some large flying magic beasts even had two or three arrows stuck in their bodies and still rushed forward.

Humming... Seeing this situation, the soldiers on the city wall immediately picked up the steel bars leaning against the wall and burst out with all their strength to throw the steel bars. Ga, ga, ga... Another piece of flying beasts was shot down, and they were also trampled into meat paste by the magic beasts chasing from behind.

"Let the people recruited by the mercenaries in the city speed up. This time, the power sent by the other side is more powerful than ever. The soldiers on the city wall may not be able to hold on. We need the power of the mercenaries. Also, send someone to call the Mage Legion over." In a room of about twenty square meters, a middle-aged man was instructing the people beside him. "Yes, Lord Shangguan." His subordinates answered after receiving the order and immediately turned and left.

On the city wall, after the baptism of steel bars, half of the flying magic beasts were still not killed. They rushed to the vicinity of the city wall and began to launch various magic attacks on the soldiers on the city wall. There were also some flying magic beasts that didn't use magic attacks, but flew to the city wall and engaged in melee combat with the soldiers on the city wall. Although the number of flying beasts that could reach the city wall was smaller than that of human soldiers, because they had the advantage of flight, the damage to the soldiers on the city wall was also very huge. For a time, painful screams of humans and the calls of flying magic beasts came from the city wall.

Boom, boom, boom... The magic beasts on the ground also entered the attack range of these cannons, and the cannons on the city wall began to pour firepower. Although these magic beasts on the ground were all huge and thick-skinned, the destructive power of these cannons was very amazing. Any one hit head-on would be blown to pieces, and the magic beasts within the explosion range would also be blown to pieces, losing their combat ability. It's just a pity that although the power of these cannons was huge, the quantity was relatively small, and the firing speed was also very slow, which led to the fact that the attack on the magic beasts on the ground did not have a very huge effect. The magic beasts on the ground also gradually broke through the firepower circle of the cannons and came to the city wall to start attacking the city wall.

The war broke out completely at this moment. ===== CHAPTER 56 =====
