On the wasteland outside the royal city, the night had yet to fade, but a chilling aura of war had already shrouded the area.
Eight hundred thousand allied soldiers stood in formation, their tents spreading from the foot of the mountain all the way to the horizon, densely packed like a honeycomb.
The cold gleam of the soldiers' armor shone under the waning moon. The formation of spears and shields looked like a forest of steel. Magic arrow towers and mobile super magic cannons were neatly arranged at the front of the army, their muzzles aimed at the royal city. The air was thick with the intertwined scent of gunpowder and magic.
Kaiaolen, clad in crimson armor with his giant wings slightly folded behind his back, stood on a high platform at the front of the army.
He stared intently at the silhouette of the royal city, deep in thought.
Several lords stood around him. Count Kan Gong, Xi Xi has been infiltrating the royal city for quite a while now, and there is no movement at all over there. Could there have been an accident? That is the underground core of the palace, and the guards must be the elite of the elite.
Yes, the royal city is now full of parasite monsters. Xi Xi infiltrated alone. Even if he is powerful, it is inevitable that he might be surrounded. Should we send a small squad of scouts to find a way to get closer and investigate?
The lords nodded in agreement, their eyes full of worry.
Only Kaiaolen remained calm, slowly shaking his head. There is no need. Xi Xi's strength is beyond our comprehension.
Even Sword Saint Soren couldn't hurt him. Mere royal city guards won't be able to trap him.
We just need to stand by according to the original plan. When he destroys the magic core, it will be time for us to attack.
Despite his words, a lingering solemnity remained on Kaiaolen's face.
Although he trusted Ye Chuan's strength, the royal city was, after all, the monsters' lair, and no one could predict what would happen.
He looked up toward the royal city. That pale blue magic array shield was still striking, pressing down on everyone's hearts like a giant boulder—it was the greatest barrier hindering their siege.
Just then, a scout soldier suddenly came running from the front, roaring, his voice full of excitement and shock:
My Lord Count! Look! The royal city's magic array!
Everyone jerked their heads up and looked toward the royal city.
They saw the pale blue shield that originally enveloped the royal city suddenly begin to flicker and distort. The golden magic lines on its surface dimmed at a visible rate, like an extinguishing candle.
A moment later, with a soft hum, the shield turned into countless tiny specks of light and dissipated into the night sky, without leaving even a trace of magic fluctuation.
The magic array... disappeared? A lord's eyes widened in disbelief.
Before he could finish speaking, a deafening explosion suddenly echoed from deep within the royal city!
Boom!
The earth shook violently, and loose stones rolled across the wasteland. The soldiers in the formation staggered to steady themselves, their faces filled with horror.
A towering plume of smoke and dust rose from the direction of the royal city. A black mushroom cloud was particularly glaring against the night sky, and even the air was distorted by the shockwave of the explosion. The roofs of distant civilian houses collapsed one after another, accompanied by a series of rumbling sounds.
This is... the sound of the core exploding! someone cried out, the worry in their eyes instantly replaced by ecstasy.
It's a success! Lord Xi Xi has successfully destroyed the magic core!
A glint flashed in Kaiaolen's eyes, and his tense nerves finally relaxed. The corners of his mouth curled into a sharp smile:
Excellent! As expected of Xi Xi!
He suddenly drew the longsword from his waist, pointing the tip at the royal city. His voice spread throughout the entire army formation via amplification magic.
Soldiers! The magic array is broken! Follow me to attack the royal city, purge the monsters, and welcome back Her Highness Irena!
Attack! Attack! Attack!
Eight hundred thousand soldiers shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens and shattering the silence of the night sky.
Horns and drums sounded together. The army formation, like an awakened behemoth, advanced steadily toward the royal city.
Shieldbearers lined up in the front row, forming a solid shield wall, with infantry following closely behind. The magic cannons began to roar, firing magic shells at the city gates, blasting the adjacent walls into flying rubble.
Inside the royal city, it had already descended into chaos.
The moment the magic core was destroyed, the entire royal city's magic defense system was completely paralyzed. Streetlamps and magic traps failed one after another, plunging the city into darkness.
The secret chamber beneath the palace was reduced to ruins. The surviving guards and mages wretchedly crawled out of the rubble, having long lost their will to fight.
The parasite guards on the streets were hit by the energy shockwave of the magic array and became even more frenzied. They madly battered the doors of civilian houses and even began biting each other.
The royal city garrison gathered in a panic. A portion of the soldiers rushed toward the city gates, attempting to block the allied forces' attack.
Another portion remained in the city. The entire royal city was in a chaotic mess, with cries, sounds of slaughter, and explosions intertwining like a living hell.
Charge! Take the city gates! Kaiaolen flapped his wings and took flight. Infusing his longsword with magic, he slashed at the defenders at the gates.
The strength of a half-dragon was already far superior to that of an ordinary person. Coupled with the magic enhancement, a single strike split hundreds of parasite guards in half.
The allied soldiers charged bravely. The shield wall withstood the defenders' arrows and magic attacks. The mages in the back row cast fireballs and wind blades, pouring their magic upon the defenders, while the cavalry flanked from the sides, crashing into the enemy's formation.
Beneath the royal city gates, both sides instantly engaged in fierce slaughter. The crisp clashing of blades, the shouts of soldiers, and the roars of parasites echoed throughout the outskirts of the royal city.
Meanwhile, deep within the royal palace, the king stood before the window of the council hall. He had not expected the magic array to be destroyed so easily, and the tissue beneath his skin was writhing madly.
Watching the smoke outside the city, the approaching allied army, and the chaotic scenes within, the purple glow in the depths of his eyes grew even denser.
He slowly turned his head to look at the shadows behind him, his voice icy: It's time for you to act...
From the shadows, an ethereal voice sounded once more, Rest assured, they will not step foot into the palace.
Just as the king finished speaking, a violent explosion echoed from within the palace. A guard rushed in and immediately fell to his knees before the king.
Your Highness! Your Highness! Someone! A mage has broken in!
The next second, the guard suddenly seemed to be controlled by an invisible force. His entire body floated up uncontrollably, and then he was violently flung away, finally smashing against the wall and turning into a puddle of green blood.
Who?! The king looked toward the door, only to see a figure slowly stepping out.
Upon clearly seeing the king's attire, Ye Chuan also smiled and greeted him, Hello there.
Naturally, the underground guards and mages couldn't possibly stop Ye Chuan. A mere cognitive contamination was enough to make them drop dead asleep, so destroying the core of the magic array was a breeze for him.
It was just that the explosion was too massive, exceeding Ye Chuan's expectations.
You... you are that spatial mage? The king naturally had his own intelligence, practically squeezing the words out of his chest.
Xixi Chinayega!
