Chapter 821: The War Begins (I)

His side by side fighting method had always been loved by the wizards, and it also let the wizards quickly integrate into the big family of the Southeast Fortress. They blended in with the soldiers.

On the battlefield, the wizards were the sharpest spears, and the soldiers around them were their most solid shields. As they watched the Devils’ lightning spears being thrown down, the heavy shields immediately defended the entire Southeast Fortress like a tortoise shell.

The wizards all hid behind them and were completely obscured by the tower shield that they did not even see the appearance of a lightning spear. The spears then bounced off and moreover, it bounced directly into the city.

One feature of the Bird Devil’s lightning spear was that it had four small fixed wings in the middle back position, so that it could maintain a forward and downward position during the throwing process without falling horizontally. And now it was these four small wings that had become a nightmare for Devils.

The lightning spears that were bounced off by the shield warriors naturally could not identify friends or foes, and the Devils already suffered heavy losses from wiping out all three waves of Warcraft. They were then greeted again by thousands of lightning spears falling from the sky simultaneously.

.

These were way too sudden of an attack.

The Wild Devils were in a state of madness at this time, and if they found out that the lightning spears were falling from the air towards them in time, they would still have some time to avoid the attacks. Unfortunately, they did not find out as they didn’t concentrate on the situation enough.

Out of the five thousand lightning spears, at least two thirds were bounced off the head of the city and at least a thousand Devils were killed or injured under these lightning spears. How dreadful!

However, after all, Wild Devils were Wild Devils. After they had been hit several times, and their loss had been more than four thousand, they still attacked the Southeast Fortress fearlessly. When they got to the bottom of the city, they quickly climbed up the city wall with sharp thorns from their arms.

Although the walls of the Southeast Fortress were hard enough, with a little help from the spike, the Wild Devils could climb up higher easily. Looking at it, the wall as high as 100 meters had been densely crawled with the Wild Devils. And the Magic Eye Wizards in the rear finally arrived at this time.

The number of Magic Eye Wizards was more than 13,000. There were many strong Devils among them. Although they were not as fast as the Wild Devils, they were not that much slower. After all, they all had three legs. However, Magic Eye Wizards were not as brainless as the Wild Devils. They were shrewd. The reason why they did not arrive at the battlefield until now was to let the Wild Devils attack first, and when they entangle the human defenders on the top of the city, it would be safer for the Magic Eye Wizards. Their wishful thinking was indeed excellent. Therefore, it was only at this time that they arrived under the city.

The head of a powerful magician with twelve Magic Eyes on his head let out a scream. All of a sudden, all the magicians quickly spread out their formation, and the Magic Eyes above their heads were all aimed at the location of Southeast Fortress’ walls.

Their Magic Eyes could only fire straight rays and attack from under the city to the top of the city, and the effect would not be very good. However, the commander of the magician was very smart. His purpose was simple: to attack the city wall directly.

With the attack of more than 13,000 Magic Eye Wizards, even if the wall of the Southeast Fortress was up to 100 meters thick, it would only take a few concentrated attacks to open up the gap. And once the humans lose the barrier of the city wall, it would be a lot harder for the Southeast Fortress to resist the 500,000 armies of Devils.

His move was not vicious. Moreover, as soon as he came up, the ten Magic Eyes on the top of the wizard’s head were the first to spray out, leaving a scorched black mark up to one meter deep on the city wall, which was undoubtedly the target he assigned to other wizards to attack.

If these wizards were really allowed to attack many times in a row, it would be a big blow to the Southeast Fortress. At this time, the Wild Devils had already begun to climb to the head of the city, and the Bird Devils in the air had also learned to spread out quickly, and were looking for opportunities. How could the Southeast Fortress stop these Magic Eye Wizards?

Of course, there was still a way. It was because the Southeast Fortress was no longer the battlefield of just the Warrior Temple itself, but the battlefield of the Temple Federation!

A mournful whistle suddenly sounded outside the city, and before the Magic Eye Wizards understood what was going on, they saw a large number of Magic Eye Wizards fell down like wheat.

One after another, the figures were drilled out from under the ground, killing these Magic Eye Wizards crazily at close range.

Assassin. It was the assassin’s doing. The total number of assassins ambushed outside the city was more than ten thousand. They had been waiting patiently, giving way to the Devils, and the target was these Magic Eye Wizards who mainly attacked using magic.

The Magic Eye Wizard race was tall and they all had three legs. However, they were truly magical armies. Melee was what they were least good at. They never imagined that the threat did not appear directly from the Southeast Fortress, but at their feet, like the Devils’ own stalker, launching a deadly attack on them.

Magic Eye Wizards were definitely smart, but if they were following the Wild Devils, at this time, the Wild Devils could still support them. However, they were completely out of touch with the Wild Devils now, and there was still a considerable distance between the location of the attack and the city wall. The Wild Devils, on the other hand, were even more committed to moving forward and were not aware of the crisis on their side at all.

Ten thousand assassins! What kind of concept was that? More than 13,000 Magic Eye Wizards were wiped out by the assassins almost completely in less than three minutes. It was totally dreadful for the army of wizards to face assassins at a close range. It was like an assassin with a dagger standing close behind a wizard.

Samigina, the Undead Devil God who watched the battle from afar, was stunned at this time. He never thought that this would happen with his fifty thousand troops. Human beings clearly had a premeditated arrangement! The assassins were obviously hidden there long ago, otherwise how could they be hidden from them?

Only then did Samigina realize that the Southeast Fortress knew they were coming and was already well prepared. From his view, the Southeast Fortress of the Warrior Temple, which could be broken in less than three waves of all-out attacks, had become so difficult to deal with. Moreover, what made him feel the crisis most was the appearance and total number of summoners, wizards and assassins.

Aren’t the six temples of mankind fighting on their own? Why are there so many strong men of other temples in the Southeast Fortress?

At the same time as the assassins launched, the Wild Devils that attacked the city wall were also destroyed.

It was true that some Devils rushed to the head of the Southeast Fortress, but it was the knights and warriors who waited for them. With this number alone, how could they pose a threat to the Southeast Fortress? Even to consume their energy would take more time and a bigger number of armys.

At this time, thorns grew on the walls of the Southeast Fortress.

The earth thorns protruded from the city wall without warning, and the Wild Devils almost covered the walls of the Southeast Fortress at this time! On such a wide and high wall, at least three thousand Wild Devils were climbing at the same time. And in the next moment, all the three thousand Wild Devils were nailed to death on the city wall.

Five hundred wizards had endured it until now, and they finally made a move.

When the Wild Devil corpses on the city wall fell madly and the army of Devils was in chaos, ten thousand assassins who had just ambushed the Magic Eye Wizards issued attacks from behind. Along with them came burst fireballs falling from the sky.

Twenty five thousand Wild Devils got burned to death under the walls of the Southeast Fortress. Even Samigina in the distance couldn’t save them in time.

A stream of golden light continued to fall from the head of the city, shining on the injured assassins, with the care of the priests, the combat effectiveness of the assassins had been improved drastically. Their individual strength was already above the Wild Devils, and the Wild Devils were already in chaos. With the support of fire wizards and priests above, there should not be any further damage to the assassins.

The Bird Devils in the air were not fools, they dared not go near the Southeast Fortress again, which would only make them?targets for the wizards on the top of the city. The remaining less than six thousand Bird Devils immediately retreated in panic. Only the corpses were left outside the city.

Cheers suddenly burst out from the Southeast Fortress like a tsunami from Qiu Yonghao and even the most ordinary soldiers, as their mood and morale had been completely ignited.

Human beings had fought against the Devils for so many years, and they had never been so proud as they were now. If it was the original strength of the Southeast Fortress, the 50,000 Devils would be sure to break through. However, it was impossible to deal with this open ground attack completely unscathed. The fighting capacity of Wild Devils and the Bird Devils were quite good, not to mention the cooperation of a large number of the Magic Eye Wizards. They could all be regarded as the elites of the Devil’s clan.

However, this time it was different. With the cooperation of teams from the six professions, even the priests did not act much, and the battle was now over. It was a complete victory for humankind.

The Wild Devils and the Magic Eye Wizards were completely wiped out, and the Devil’s clan lost nearly half of them. The loss was so great that even Samigina, who commanded 500,000 troops, was a little anxious. This was close to one tenth of the total strength. Although it was not the real main force, it was also a very important part of their strength.

This was the advantage of the combination of the six professions, and the effect of multi-class cooperation was much better than when each six temples fight alone. The advantages of the new federation appeared on the battlefield for the first time, which made the minds of the six professional strong men in the Southeast Fortress determined. Compared to the overall strength, they were not as good as the Devil’s clan, but under the cooperation of the six professions, it was not easy for the Devil’s clan to break through. And timely information made them fully prepared.

Samigina’s face was livid and his eyes glowed ferociously. “Two-headed Devils vultures with Bird Devils, Flame Devils, Wolf Devils, and Leopard Devils go forth into the battle. Spore Devils go and assist them. The Invisible Earth race, hide yourself and dispatch a troop. I’d like to see how many traps they still have.”
