Chapter 1060: Chapter 651: The Disgraceful Collapse_2 Chapter 1060: Chapter 651: The Disgraceful Collapse_2 As she finished speaking, Arielâs starry eyes directly met Baldwinâs sly and slightly startled eyes, and she slowly said, âBesides, just now, werenât you seething with murderous intent when you said you would bring death and raging flames to Cyan Town? How come now youâve changed your tune and turned into a coerced victim?â
The reason why Ariel could know Baldwinâs words earlier so clearly was naturally because Serena and Stella, who were cloaked in invisibility at the time, were on the scene.
At first, under Leo Rayâs command, this pair of stealthy twin sisters didnât spot cunning Baldwin and Anzem hiding among the large group of soldiers right away.
It wasnât until Anzem, who had been scouting the area, returned to Baldwinâs side that they managed to lock onto both of them.
After some careful consideration, Leo Ray did not order their beheading, after all, his target was the entire Vanguard Legion, not these two insignificant commanders.
âTsk⊠Just a naive and pampered daydreamer, but she really takes herself seriously,â
After being exposed, a thick murderous aura welled up on Baldwinâs face once more.
He simply raised his hand and shouted to the elite soldiers around him, âSoldiers, they wonât let us go, so we might as well fight to the death, capture Ariel, and weâll have a chance to survive! Kill!â
Hearing this, the elite soldiers surrounding him, although fearful, clenched their teeth, brandished their blades, and prepared for the attack.
These soldiers, who are identified as new citizens, understand clearly.
Once those lowly free farmers rise up, their status and might that they normally enjoy will be drowned in the endless rage!
This is something they cannot allow to happen under any circumstances, so, whether itâs the damn Mr. Lane or Princess Ariel, they must die!
For a moment, the atmosphere on the city wall was filled with killing intent.
The first siege team, consisting of at least a thousand soldiers, surged forward under Baldwinâs command like a tide.
âPut an end to this farce.â
Leo Ray waved his hand casually, then took a step back, followed by Leah and Ariel. The rest of the subordinates and more than 60 Golem Puppets met the enemy head-on.
On the front half-section of the city wall, the crimson-eyed attacking soldiers holding blades filled the air with their murderous intent.
Both sides quickly started clashing, followed by the sound of broken weapons.
Under Taylor and Red Nightâs charge, Taylor, wielding a two-handed greatsword, swung furiously like a windmill, splitting the attacking soldiersâ weapons, armor, and themselves under the force of the sharp sword.
Red Night leaped right into the enemy soldiers and unleashed circle after circle of intense flames outward, evaporating the air and toppling every soldier within range.
Under Leo Rayâs command, the 60 tall Golem Puppetries, Earth Guardians moved forward slightly, Ice Knights dismounted, and Divine Archers positioned slightly to the rear, forming an almost straight line and advancing relentlessly.
Currently, the strength of the 24 Earth Guardians reached Tier 3 Seven-Star, while the remaining Ice Knights and Divine Archers reached Tier 3 Nine-Star. It was effortless for them to deal with these ordinary soldiers at Tier 1 and Tier 2.
The Earth Guardiansâ giant stone shields and swords, Ice Knightsâ sharp ice swords, and Divine Archersâ light arrows formed a deadly net, eradicating soldiers who tried to break through the line.
Furthermore, Leo Ray and Ariel occasionally unleashed lightning or light barriers from the rear, leaving the Great Swordsman Squads stationed on either side of the city wall essentially idle.
At the same time, just as Baldwin, who had oil on his feet, tried to slip away.
He was caught in a sudden, solid bone net that bound his footsteps. As he furiously struggled to break free, a thick, bulging arm had already gripped his neck tightly.
Needless to say, the ones dealing with him were none other than the Necromancer Lina and Gideon Black.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.This cunning fellow, as the commander of the vanguard legion, naturally could not be easily annihilated; instead, Gideon Black needed to interrogate him well.
Flames and blades intertwined, like a soulful symphony of fire and iron.
In not too long, under the luxurious lineup of Leo Rayâs most powerful forces,
These first wave of attackers who climbed the city wall, the most elite of the siege soldiers, were all wiped out, leaving only the crimson color spreading through the brick seams, still flowing recklessly.
Under the towering city wall, thick black smoke still lingered.
This smoke, originally meant to blind the defendersâ eyes, now blinded the eyes of other siege soldiers.
Listening to the continuous battle cries from the city wall, these soldiers, who were ordered to standby, were all itching to join the fight.
But in the blink of an eye, all that was left to come from the wall was screams and scorching heatwaves.
Accompanied by the heart-wrenching sounds from the wall, a vague unease quietly spread among the invasion force waiting to attack.
However, this faint unease did not last long and was immediately overshadowed by the greedy thoughts of plundering the cityâs treasures.
With such a situation, Lord Baldwin must be slaughtering with his elite soldiers up there! And Lord Anzem, he is a fire magic master!
Thinking of this, the ordinary soldiers below the city, with murder in their eyes, grew increasingly restless, gripping their weapons tightly as if the city gate was about to open in the next moment.
However, with the screams on the city wall suddenly stopping, what greeted these soldiers were not open gates, but dense rows of arrows.
Since most soldiers were completely unprepared, they were all struck by concentrated arrow attacks, falling down with dumbfound faces.
Sharp arrows easily pierced their light armor, bringing them death.
Until the very end, these siege soldiers, who were prepared to wreak havoc, couldnât figure out why they, who were supposed to be the slaughterers, had ended up being slaughtered instead.
âMy Lord, if it werenât for you here, Iâm afraid these soldiers could have turned a city of equal size into a living hell,â
In the arrow tower, Ariel Watson looked at the large number of our defense soldiers returning to the city wall and couldnât help but feel emotional.
âBlame them for choosing the wrong opponent.â
Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, âOf course, their blind arrogance and reckless ambition are also catalysts for their destined failure.â
Looking at the gradually dispersing thick smoke below the city, Leo Ray remained calm and continued, âAs for these little tricks, they are naturally insignificant in the face of our strength.â
âItâs no wonder you are the Lord, truly reassuring.â
Ariel Watson couldnât help but cast an admiring gaze at Leo Ray and murmured to herself.
At this moment, under the concentrated arrow rain attack of our archers, the remaining enemy soldiers were already beginning to disintegrate on a large scale.
âItâs far from a time to rest easy. This is just the beginning. The attacks waiting for us will only be more intense, like a tempest. If we are careless, we will perish in it.â
Leo Ray shook his head helplessly, then smiled and said, âBut after all, this is our first victory in this campaign. Let us enjoy the victory first.â
As Leo Ray finished speaking, the roar of magic cannons sounded, as if celebrating this first victory.
