"You?" Chen Hansheng was very surprised. He was not surprised at the other party's strength, but was surprised that the other party would make such a choice.
"Why, are you afraid that I will run away suddenly?" Edel said with a smile.
"Now that you're here, wouldn't it be stupid to leave? I'm just wondering why you have changed so much." Chen Hansheng looked at Edel with bloodshot eyes.
"I don't know either, but you'd better not ask anymore. Maybe if you ask too much, I'll regret it." Edel stroked his beard and looked at the shield in the distance with a complicated expression. "By the way, I need something that can make a big noise. You should have it here, right?"
After Edel set off, Chen Hansheng's team arrived at the designated location not long after. It was a slope in the forest with an open space on it. Here they could avoid many trees and overlook the enemy's siege position from afar. The artillerymen put the two experimental guns in place and prepared to shoot. The magicians responsible for joint casting also stood in position and were ready to release magic at any time. The snipers spread out in the forest, looking for different locations to hide and block the enemies who might attack in a while. Master Gordon floated in the air in an invisible state, facing the shield from a distance, and prepared his most proficient piercing magic.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for Edel to attract the enemy's attention.
Chen Hansheng stared at the position intently. If Edel didn't move again, he would have to launch an attack directly. Alano's city shield couldn't wait too long.
Suddenly, a huge explosion occurred outside the shield of the siege position. The dazzling flames and rising smoke made the fireballs on the siege position pause. Three figures in robes appeared above the flames, constantly dropping fireballs from the air onto the shield. Those figures were all Edel. He used the art of distraction to split himself into three, two of them cast elemental magic, and one cast dispel magic, attacking the shield at a very fast frequency.
"He actually uses distraction to cast spells like this. Even if he is a master, his endurance will be greatly reduced after distraction. And if the clone formed by distraction is completely defeated, the soul will suffer considerable damage." said the leader of the mage class beside Chen Hansheng.
"He wants to lure the enemy away." Chen Hansheng said.
Sure enough, when the enemy's saint flew out of the shield, Edel's clones fled in all directions. The saint did not use the same method to create clones to chase him, but instead targeted one of them and chased after him. The master and the saint were both very fast in flight, and Edel was well prepared. I don't know what secret method he used, but his speed was no slower than that of the saint. In the blink of an eye, both of them flew away without a trace.
"Shall we begin?" asked Master Gordon.
Chen Hansheng said: "Wait a little longer."
Not long after, two of the three clones that Edel had escaped returned to where the shield was, and they continued to pour magic on the position below. Several temple priests flew out from the shield below and tried to interfere with the attack of Edel's clones, but their strength was far inferior to his. They didn't even last two minutes before Edel's clones broke the shield and attacked, killing them together.
Finally, another saint in the position below couldn't hold back any longer and flew out of the shield. Edel's two clones turned around and ran without hesitation. The saint hesitated for a moment, and also transformed into a clone, chasing after Edel's two clones.
Seeing that the opportunity had finally come, Chen Hansheng ordered an immediate attack.
Master Gordon was the first to cast a beam of white light on the shield of the siege position, and the shield began to ripple like the surface of a lake blown by the wind. Then a mage class used a joint spell to launch a beam of dispelling light, hitting the place marked by Gordon, and the shield began to shake more violently.
Seven or eight temple priests flew out of the enemy camp, and they quickly flew towards Chen Hansheng's direction. Before they arrived, the magic had arrived first, and fireballs and lightning struck the hillside one after another. Another mage squad on standby had already prepared and propped up a shield on the ground. The magic that flew down hit the shield, but failed to cause any damage.
"Sniper, prepare to shoot!" Chen Hansheng ordered.
The sound of the hunter's sniper rifle pierced the entire forest. The temple priests flying in the sky were only high-level at best. The shields they cast were not worth mentioning in front of the efficient magic-breaking bullets. With their flying speed, they were also unable to avoid the warriors with the sniper package. After the gunshot, they were shot one after another, and one by one they were blown into blood mist in the air.
On the ground, a group of temple knights also rushed out of the magic circle and attacked the hillside. The melee fighters brought by Chen Hansheng had already lined up under the shield, and each of them held a large-caliber shotgun in their hands. When the knights rushed up the hillside, they first fired two shots at the knights, and then met them with swords and shields.
Although the shotgun volleys had little effect, they still injured and killed several weaker Temple Knights. Dozens of people started a fierce battle in front of the hillside.
Chen Hansheng did not let the snipers deal with these Temple Knights, but let them continue to hide and wait for an opportunity. However, he asked the mages responsible for maintaining the shield to use half of their magic to cast buff magic on his own warriors, and he also took out a customized rifle and shot at the strongest enemy leader on the field.
A figure flew in the sky from afar. It was the first saint who went after Edel. When he saw the battle breaking out here, he flew over here without stopping.
The saint quickly noticed that the most threatening person on the scene was Master Gordon, who was performing magic to break magic in the air. He waved his hand and shot out a green light, piercing Master Gordon who was still in the air.
Gordon is worthy of being one of the best masters at defense and breaking magic. Facing the attack of the saint, he chose not to dodge or even stop the spell in his hand.
The green light hit his body, bursting out with dazzling brilliance, and penetrated the layers of shields on his body one after another, until the last bit of energy penetrated the last shield, and the aftermath it left still made a small hole in Gordon's abdomen.
A trace of blood slid out, staining Master Gordon's white wizard robe red, but he remained motionless like a statue, still maintaining the posture of performing piercing magic.
The saint was somewhat surprised that the opponent could withstand his attack. He stopped in the air and gathered a ball of magical energy in his hands again.
Under Chen Hansheng's command, the sound of sniper rifles rang out again from all over the forest, but there were two sounds that were even more deafening, drowning out the sound of the guns.
