Jiang Zhong's magic witch group changed the weather and raised thick fog, hoping to use the fog to block the sight of the human coalition forces and paralyze the defense system of Nanhuo City. The human coalition forces could not use magic crystals to attack the demon spacecraft.
Unexpectedly, Ye Feng and Nangong Yang discovered from the black magic ball left by the first magic witch that Nanhuo City had its own unique magic talisman defense formation.
This magic talisman formation was left by the ancient demon clan. More than 5,000 years ago, it once blocked the attack of the Golden Immortal. It is more powerful than the magic crystal cannon in defense and can also rebound the attack force.
Ye Feng used the blood of the coalition soldiers to activate the magic defense formation of Nanhuo City.
After a series of earth-shaking tremors, a powerful energy shield protected the entire South Fire City.
The demon spaceships that flew through the fog were about to destroy the magic crystal cannons built on top of the city wall, but they crashed into the energy shield of the magic rune array.
The demon spaceships were instantly smashed into pieces. Deafening explosions sounded in the fog, and balls of fire fell into the abyss like rain of fire.
At first, the demons thought that the fire was generated by the bombardment of the city walls by their spaceships, but later, they realized that the fireballs falling from the sky were their own spaceships.
The heavy fog, which was originally a good strategy to defeat the enemy, now became a deadly threat to the demon spacecraft.
The spacecraft panicked in the fog, flying around and crashing into each other, causing many spacecraft to collide with each other for unknown reasons.
Jiang Zhong's mood almost hit rock bottom, and he quickly issued an order to retreat.
There were thousands of demon warships participating in the attack, carrying more than 300,000 elite demon warriors. When they retreated from the fog back to the Bovilia Plain, they counted the number and found that only one-third of the spaceships had returned.
Only 60,000 of Jiang Zhong's 200,000 troops were left, and only more than 100,000 of the more than 300,000 demon troops led by the four lords were left.
There was a dead silence in the lord's tent. Jiang Zhong's eyes were almost spitting fire. They didn't know what happened. They only knew that their spaceship had hit something.
There were some spaceships that managed to return, but the demon warriors couldn't tell where they were. The fog interfered with the vision of the human coalition forces and also blocked the vision of the demon warriors.
Their ultrasonic waves can only monitor objects such as magic crystal cannons and city walls. The energy shield generated by the magic talisman array is silent, and the ultrasonic wave cannot detect that energy shield, causing chaos in the ultrasonic system of the demons.
The fog gradually dissipated. At this time, the demons, including the human coalition, discovered that there was a faint blue light emanating from the surroundings of Nanhuo City, which mixed with the light of the blue magic crystals on the city walls to form a dome, like a semicircular transparent glass cover.
The human coalition in the city looked at the protective shield above their heads in surprise, and then they realized that it was this protective shield that protected them, so the deafening explosion just now did not damage any grass or tree in Nanhuo City.
Jiang Zhong and the others were also stunned.
Nangong Wei pointed at the light blue protective shield for a long time but said nothing.
General Ward's face was gloomy. He seemed to have thought of something: "Is this a magic defense array? How is it possible?"
Gu Xiu asked in surprise: "General, what does the magic defense array mean?"
"That is a defensive formation that the ancient demons are good at. They carve magic symbols on the city walls. These magic symbols gather into a formation and combine with the magic crystal energy to form a magical defense."
Jiang Zhong suppressed his anger, his expression became frustrated, and added: "Such a powerful magic defense array cannot be formed in a short time. It must have been set up in the city wall a long time ago. Lord Nangong, don't you even know that your own city has such a powerful defense array? And you let it be taken away by humans."
Nangong Wei had a look of regret on his face: "How is it possible? No one told me that Nanhuo City has such magical defenses. This is an ancient city. Our family bought it. It has a history of thousands of years."
The Lord of the Left Road was a good friend of Nangong Wei, and he explained for him: "These cities lost their former lords after the Seven Realms War and were bought by the Nangong family. So Lord Nangong didn't know that there would be such a magic defense array in South Fire City. It's understandable. Otherwise, Lord Nangong would never let it fall into the hands of humans."
Jiang Zhong sighed helplessly: "Although this defeat was tragic, it is not shameful, because we were not defeated by humans, we were defeated by our own ancestors. This kind of magic array can only be cast by magic witches. How can the human coalition cast a magic defense array? Could it be that the human coalition also has magic witches joining in?"
Nangong Wei gnashed his teeth in hatred: "There must be some witches who have joined the human coalition. These traitors are the most shameful."
Speaking of traitors, a hint of helplessness flashed in Jiang Zhong's eyes. His most valued disciple, Jiang Qi, was in this Nanhuo City at this moment. If Nangong Wei had not forced him to send troops, he would not have wanted to fight Jiang Qi.
At the highest point of the city wall of Nanhuo City, Jiang Qi knelt on the edge of the wall. His heart was very sad. Some of those demon warriors who fell into the abyss were once his comrades.
They received Jiang Zhong's training together with him. At that time, he was still a deputy general. Although he was young, he had a high status in Jiang Zhong's army because he was Jiang Zhong's disciple.
His magic and martial arts skills impressed many demons with higher cultivation than him.
He is young and promising, and is considered to be the most talented among Jiang Zhong's several disciples and the most likely to become Jiang Zhong's successor.
But today, he saw with his own eyes those familiar spaceships, some of which he had flown before, turning into a ball of burning flames and falling into the clouds.
War is cruel. There is only life and death, no love or justice.
Ye Feng patted his shoulder gently: "General Jiang Qi, I'm sorry. I know you are loyal and righteous. The demons believe in respecting the strong. There are very few demons like you who value friendship and righteousness. This war is cruel. If you fell today, would anyone kneel for you? Would they still remember you?"
“There should be some.”
"You can respect your opponent on the battlefield, but you must never be soft-hearted. If there was no energy shield today, they would not hesitate to destroy our magic crystal cannons and our defenses. They would use the magic crystal cannons to kill everyone in our city, humans, monsters, including you, without even frowning. War is cruel. Either you die or I live."
Jiang Qi nodded, his expression firm: "General Ye, I understand. I am just mourning my former comrades. But if I meet them on the battlefield, I will not show mercy either."
