Chapter 701: Violent Tower Break

As the Light Spear torrent was fired, Reslin's figure also changed.

He suddenly released the Endless Storm in his hand, activated castling, and instantly swapped positions with his true form Lei En. The teammates' vision flashed, and they saw Lei En appear, already wearing Titanic Power Armor, his tall sturdy body like a metal fortress, reaching out to grasp the Endless Storm, his shoulder flicked, also using Mirror Image Technique.

Lei En's Mirror Image Technique was only seven rings, but after being enhanced by the Endless Storm to eight rings, it summoned ten Mirror Images.

In an instant, ten identical Lei En appeared around him.

Adding twenty‑five Reslin Mirror Images, there were a total of thirty‑six Lei En and Reslin, enough to form a terrifying legendary legion!

Everyone stared fixedly.

Can we still play like this?

Because Reslin was swapped back to Mo Du, the Light Spear was controlled by his true Mirror Image, and the purple torrent of three hundred Light Spears shot to the top of the Mage Tower in a single breath.

Boom—!

A deafening blast echoed through the cavern and the town beneath the tower, startling more than two thousand slaves. Gray dwarves, dark elves, night goblins, subterranean gnomes—all looked up at the tower, their faces filled with horror.

A semi‑transparent shield appeared around the tower, its protective barrier automatically activated.

The Light Spear torrent slammed into the barrier, precisely hitting the same point, each spear exploding, yet the tower only trembled lightly, its structure unscathed.

"Enemy attack!"

"Someone is attacking the master's Mage Tower!"

The slaves shouted chaotically, but could not locate the enemy.

A voice, severe yet oddly toned, emanated from the tower in the common subterranean tongue, commanding: "My servants, kill those enemies! They are at the eastern entrance."

A bright beam shot from the tower's tip, pointing toward the passage where Lei En and the others were.

"Yes, faithfully following the master's Willpower…"

"For the master!"

The whole town boiled, the gates burst open, and a slave army of various subterranean creatures surged out, racing toward the passage entrance under the beam's guidance. Simultaneously, portals opened throughout the city, linking locations and allowing several legendary slaves to reach the destination directly.

Three legendary gray dwarf warriors, two legendary Zor warriors, and a twelfth‑level Zor mage.

These legends were clearly stronger than the Koutao fishmen.

They formed a legendary squad, immediately spotting the enemies at the passage entrance and charging without hesitation.

The legendary warriors launched a charge, while the Zor warriors slipped into the shadows.

The Zor mage kept his distance and cast spells.

This Zor mage in a magical robe was female, with dark skin and a cold expression, wielding a dark‑red staff, about to cast Flame Burst into the passage.

However, as a red light just ignited on her hand, she suddenly sensed danger.

A pair of massive Demon bat wings unfurled behind her, the terrifying evil energy nearly suffocating her; she screamed and instantly activated the Flash Talisman on her body.

A green battle blade slashed like lightning, and her shield shattered like paper.

Puff!

The Zor mage's Flash succeeded; she appeared dozens of meters away, but found her lower body still at the original spot. Moments before death, she finally saw the enemy who killed her—it was also a Zor, and the overwhelming evil energy revealed him to be a Saint Rank Demonic Hunter!

"How could this be…" the Zor mage fell into endless darkness.

Yizite's eyes flashed with a hint of pity, but his movements did not slow; his wings beat, unleashing countless eerie green evil flames that swept a hundred‑meter radius.

Two legendary Zor warriors fell out of the shadows, letting out loud screams.

A Saint Rank Demonic Hunter is a Demon lord, and the killing power of this evil flame is so high that few legends can endure it.

Yizite hurled two battle blades in arcs, decapitating the two Zor warriors.

His figure lunged forward, catching the spinning returning blades, about to slash the three legendary gray dwarf warriors who had reached the passage entrance, when a warning rose in his mind and his body turned into a black shadow and dissipated.

Almost the instant Yizite dodged, a massive lava beam descended.

Boom—!

The terrifying high‑temperature beam erupted with countless flames, pushing forward and scorching a deep, several‑meter‑long trench into the ground.

Yizite appeared outside the beam's range.

This eight‑ring lava beam was fired by the tower; had he not flashed away in time, he would likely have been injured.

The lava beam continued forward, its angle rising, seeming to aim to shatter the passage and bury the enemies alive inside.

The tower emitted vast magical fluctuations.

Spell after spell formed, mostly beam‑based: disintegration beams, frost beams, scorching beams, lightning beams, as well as rockfall, flame burst, glacier spikes, lightning storms, etc., all six‑ring or higher, unleashed en masse.

Yizite's eyes were full of dread.

The Mage Tower truly is terrifying!

Although these spells top out at eight rings, most at seven, their number far exceeds the usual limit for legends, and their power is greatly amplified; even as a Saint Rank Demonic Hunter, he dares not confront them head‑on, only flash away.

Attacking a Mage Tower is truly too difficult.

In the sky, after the torrent of three hundred Light Spears bombarded once, most had exploded; the remaining ones looped in midair, Reslin's Mirror Images replenished the Light Spears, flying out from the passage to merge with the skyward Light Spears and fire toward the tower.

The Eye Demon inside the tower did not sit idle.

While it raved, casting attacks on the enemy, it also emitted dispel magic beams that struck the Light Spears. The hard amethyst spears were shattered, but with three hundred Light Spears, losing a dozen or so did not affect their power.

Boom—!

The Light Spear torrent struck the tower's top a second time, at the same spot, exploding consecutively.

The tower's barrier resurfaced.

Each time the Light Spears were resisted, the barrier consumed massive energy; the tower's total output was limited, and instantly its spell‑casting rhythm halted.

The most threatening eight‑ring lava beam was abruptly cut off, missing the passage exit by only a few meters.

The release rate of the other spells also slowed.

Ten Lei En Mirror Images flashed out of the passage, each opening a prismatic shield, donning a rainbow‑light cloak, facing the incoming spells, using their bodies to intercept the tower's magic.

Various beams, flames, and frost struck the Lei En Mirror Images.

His prismatic shield had only five rings and broke quickly.

Spell energy continued to pound his body, most of the damage being offset by the rainbow cloak; his titanium‑gold body fully activated, skin turning a very pale gold, resisting damage, leaving only a trace of energy; Level 8 Energy Devour took effect, causing no damage.

Level 8 Energy Devour can completely absorb three Eight-Ring Spells.

Lei En, using the Mirror Image cast with "Endless Storm," possessed 70% of his body's power; at least two Eight-Ring Spells are needed to damage the Mirror Image.

The spell released by the High Tower does not yet threaten the Mirror Image.

His teammates stared in astonishment.

The three legendary gray dwarf warriors also witnessed the scene, turned and fled instantly; a figure leapt over their heads and landed ahead. Upon landing, it stomped the ground, unleashing a massive bolt of lightning that engulfed the gray dwarves; after Asina's thunderous charge, only fragments of the dwarves' corpses remained.

"Who are you?"

"Why attack my High Tower?"

The Eye Demon let out an angry roar from within the High Tower, but its tone was fierce yet cowardly, clearly frightened by the terrifying foes. Yet Lei En and his teammates gave no reply, which only drove it crazier; its howl echoed through the cavern: "Servants, all attack! Kill them! Kill them…"

The slave army had already surged to within less than a hundred meters.

The Mage Tower withstood the second wave of Light Spear barrage; this time it ceased casting en masse and fell silent.

A vague ripple spread out.

"It's about to cast a Nine-ring Technique," Lei En in the passage warned everyone, glancing at the High Tower twice, then added: "It's the Destruction Orb; I'll deal with it!"

The Destruction Orb is a Nine-ring Arcane.

Its principle is the same as a Void Bomb: it condenses a massive amount of void energy into a sphere that explodes on impact, destroying space and everything within its radius, yet it wields a more terrifying power than the Seven-ring Void Bomb, belonging to the strongest Nine-ring Single-Target Spell.

The Eye Demon's purpose was obvious.

Releasing the Destruction Orb, even if it cannot kill the foes, can destroy the passage entrance and block the enemies outside the cavern.

The teammates were first startled, then reassured upon hearing Lei En's words.

By then the slave army had already arrived.

Yizite transformed into a Demon and charged forward, unleashing slaughter; Asina, like a tiger among sheep, rampaged through the fearless slaves; Belak's gunfire roared, sweeping continuously; Daonsos also swung a spiked hammer, charging into the enemy ranks.

Twenty‑five Reslin Mirror Images focused on maintaining Light Spears, bombarding the tower wave after wave.

The tower's incredibly resilient barrier repeatedly manifested.

Each Light Spear torrent struck the same spot, a weak point the All-Seeing Eye had identified on the barrier; after four strikes, the barrier began to wobble.

Just two or three more strikes would surely breach the barrier.

The Eye Demon understood this as well, but it could no longer care; aside from channeling energy to sustain the barrier, all other energy was devoted to casting the Destruction Orb.

Finally, after ten seconds, the spell was completed!

At the top of the Mage Tower, a black sphere about half a meter in diameter coalesced, as dark as ink, seeming to swallow even light, emitting an eerie black hue that felt extremely dangerous.

The moment the Destruction Orb formed, it was immediately launched.

"Die!"

"You lowly mongrels dare to attack Gugo Zeralkan's Mage Tower; death is your only fate, hahaha…"

The Eye Demon let out a wanton laugh.

Amid the laughter, the Destruction Orb shot straight toward the passage entrance, moving as fast as lightning, becoming a black streak barely perceptible to the eye, targeting one Reslin Mirror Image.

"Hm."

Lei En's gaze never left the High Tower; the All-Seeing Eye observed the tower's internal energy flow with crystal clarity, perhaps understanding it better than the Eye Demon.

The instant the Destruction Orb was fired, he already grasped its trajectory.

A poised Mirror Image triggered a flash.

As if rehearsed thousands of times, Lei En's Mirror Image flashed to the predetermined spot at the critical moment, perfectly blocking the Destruction Orb.

The Nine-ring Technique moved at extreme speed, almost impossible to anticipate.

Yet Lei En managed it.

Snap!

With a light sound, the Destruction Orb struck the Mirror Image, forced to explode prematurely.

Countless void energies exploded instantly, shattering the Mirror Image to pieces; the space within a hundred meters disintegrated inch by inch, forming a pitch‑black spherical void midair, like a black hole, where nothing could survive.

The onlookers saw this and were filled with lingering dread.

If one fell within the Destruction Orb's range, no one could survive except Lei En himself and Yizite.

"No!"

The Eye Demon inside the High Tower let out a desperate scream, "How could this be!"

The Nine-ring Technique drained too much energy from the High Tower; with its strength, it could not be cast again immediately, and the spell failed to kill the enemies, also causing insufficient energy supply to the barrier.

Reslin naturally understood this.

In the sky, the Light Spear torrent resembled a massive beam of light, slamming into the High Tower.

All three hundred Light Spears exploded.

A booming rumble.

The Mage Tower shuddered violently, stronger than any previous tremor; the barrier on its surface grew extremely thin, seeming that one more strike would cause it to collapse.

The Eye Demon seemed to descend into madness, continuously bellowing and cursing the foes.

It could no longer cast the Destruction Orb, only releasing Six‑ring to Eight‑ring spells, attempting to saturate attacks to blunt the enemy's offensive. Moreover, it could not spare the slave army locked in melee; its area spells spared no one, killing many slaves.

But these struggles were futile.

Single‑target spells aimed at the goal were mostly absorbed by Lei En's Mirror Image's body, the remainder easily evaded by teammates.

Reslin's twenty‑five Mirror Images summoned Light Spears.

Each Mirror Image produced twelve, totaling three hundred Light Spears, which streamed out of the passage, forming a torrent in the sky, shooting toward the High Tower without hesitation.

At the same time, Lei En himself also flashed into view.

His hand held a refined gold spear over two meters long, his body swelled to three meters tall, activating Blood Frenzy, battle music, Titanic Power Armor, raising his strength to level fifteen, and he sprinted step by step toward the high tower, thick electric currents appearing on his body and converging on his arm.

The refined gold spear gathered massive electric flashes, dazzlingly bright.

In the sky, the torrent of Light Spears pierced a series of magical barriers, the sixth strike hit the high tower, then all exploded.

Amid the booming explosions, the high tower's barrier trembled on the verge of collapse.

When the last Light Spear exploded, a crack appeared in the barrier, just a thread away from total collapse.

At that moment, Lei En accelerated his run and hurled the refined gold spear from his hand.

Level 5 Thunder God's Spear!

A flash of electricity several times faster than lightning crossed hundreds of meters in the instant it was launched, striking precisely the spot on the high tower repeatedly battered by Light Spears.

Boom!

The mage tower's barrier has collapsed!
