The Black Nightmare Army began to realize something was wrong when the earth trembled.
"Attention on all sides! Enemies may attack at any time!"
Benjamin first shouted at the sentry towers in all directions, then flew into the sky and looked around. He didn't find anything at first, but soon, when a torrent suddenly rushed down from the mountain to the north, his vision suddenly changed.
… mudslide
He felt something was wrong. Although it was raining, the previous climate was very dry and did not have the conditions to form a mudslide. And to be honest, the town of Crewe has existed at the foot of the mountain for so long without suffering any natural disasters. This can explain a lot.
But time was running out, and Benjamin had no time to think about it. The torrent poured down from the hillside and headed straight for the town of Crewe. The distance in between only took about ten seconds. Crewe Town is protected by a rune defense array, but at this time, what they need to face at the moment... is probably not just a mudslide.
Therefore, he took action without hesitation.
I saw an ice wall rising from the ground to the north of Crewe Town, stretching for thousands of meters, blocking the rune defense formation. Several quick-reacting mages also flew over, earth wall hurricane... Everything that could reduce the impact of the mudslide was piled on the outside of the barrier, like a temporary city wall.
—They are trying their best to protect the rune defense formation. This thin barrier may be able to block the mudslide, but no one knows what will come next.
The people in the town came out in panic, thinking that at most they would encounter a battle between the two armies. Of course they didn't expect that they would see large areas of flood water mixed with sand, and then rolled with gravel, rushing down the mountain like an earth-yellow waterfall, getting bigger and bigger in their eyes.
The ground was shaking, and some people even lost their balance and fell to the ground. They didn't know whether they were shocked or frightened.
Then, more than ten seconds passed in an instant, and the mudslide rushed over!
The people in the town felt dizzy instantly.
I saw that the raging torrent hit the ice wall, and the impact force burst out suddenly. Mud water splashed for a while, and the highest one even splashed hundreds of meters into the sky. Under the impact of countless boulders, gaps quickly appeared in the ice wall, and the defenses built by other mages had long been submerged in the dirty muddy water. At this time, even the shadows were gone.
And more muddy water is still rushing down the hillside. They passed through the gap and slapped on the rune defense, making the barrier flicker. But luckily... there was no sign of being broken.
The people in the town were relieved to see this.
However, Benjamin raised his head at this moment and suddenly looked at the sky. And just as he expected, in the vast night rain in the sky at this moment, dozens of shimmering artillery shells, which did not look very conspicuous, were slowly falling towards the town of Crewe.
"It is indeed the church."
It seems that Miles has not investigated the enemy's overall strategy. Moreover, a mudslide was brewing in the mountains without anyone noticing. How did the church do it
Benjamin didn't have time to think about it. The impact of the mudslide, coupled with the holy light cannonballs in the sky, the rune defense formation will undoubtedly be broken! But in the current situation, once the barrier is broken and the mudslide rushes in, the entire town will be destroyed!
So, he flew high into the sky in the next second.
"Block those things for me." The water elemental spirit was summoned by him and flew towards the dozens of cannonballs. At the same time, he himself also opened the deep sea realm, layers of ice mirrors emerged, and the elemental commands and defense outlines were completed... In short, he threw out all the defensive methods that could be used in a short period of time to block the barrier, Prevent it from breaking directly under gunfire.
Below, the remaining mages took over Benjamin's responsibilities and gathered at the north entrance of Crewe Town to jointly resist the mudslide.
"No! I have calculated the strength. The rune defense array cannot be maintained!" The system suddenly appeared and shouted, "Don't waste your efforts! Once those shells fall, the barrier will definitely shatter. Let’s go down and evacuate the people and soldiers!”
Hearing this, Benjamin looked at the artillery shells that were getting closer and closer, and then at the residents who were in a mess below.
"...It's too late." In the end, he could only take a deep breath and answer the system in his heart, and then poured more mental power into the layers of ice mirrors above, trying to make them thicker and stronger. .
However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared above the barrier.
Benjamin was stunned.
That is…
I saw that familiar figure rushing towards the cannonball, even faster than the water elemental elf, leaving only an afterimage in the retinas of others. And the next second, before the cannonballs hit the barrier, the man opened his arms and used his body to block the trajectory of several cannonballs!
Everyone who saw this scene was stunned—including Grant and the bishops who were observing the battle from a distance.
"... Oops, why did we forget to include him!" At that moment, Grant came back to his senses and clenched his fists hard.
And the next second, gorgeous fireworks exploded over the town of Crewe.
boom!
The few cannonballs that were blocked by people's bodies exploded first, and the aftermath they emitted caused dozens of remaining cannonballs to explode in the sky together. The entire explosion was about ten meters away from the barrier. The scorching holy light splashed out, but was blocked by layers of ice mirrors. In the end, only about 20-30% of the original light landed on the barrier.
The barrier flickered for a while, but in the end, it blocked all the holy light.
At the same time as the explosion, the figure that rushed into the sky was blown away by the instantaneous impact, and hit the barrier of the rune defense formation with a clang, seemingly accompanied by a loud cry of pain. Then, a small hole opened up in the rune defense array. He fell down the hole and instantly fell back to Crewe Town. Finally, he disappeared into the crowd, and he didn't know where he went.
—Because everything happened very quickly, not many people saw it... The man fell naked.
Benjamin covered his eyes.
Miles... When the guy fell down, he almost fell less than one meter in front of him.
It's almost impossible to look straight at it.
"Ungrateful guy!" The system suddenly appeared and accused him righteously, "His clothes were inevitably burned by the holy light at that moment. He didn't run naked on purpose. You Why are you so disgusted there?"
Benjamin was speechless for a moment, shook his head, and said helplessly, "...No, the holy light is too dazzling, I will block it."
