WHOOSH!
WHOOSH!
WHOOSH!
Just as Shen Fei was about to remark that there were now four Knight Bosses, he watched in disbelief as the four Teleportation Gates lit up. Another six identical Knights emerged.
It wasn’t four Knight Bosses.
It was ten!
In a siege battle, the number of NPCs had increased tenfold!
Shen Fei was rendered speechless.
After a moment of silence, he immediately began to operate the Defense Towers he had prepared specifically to deal with bosses.
SHIMMER!
SHIMMER!
SHIMMER!
But before he could issue the command, the Teleportation Gates lit up once more.
Ten old, white-bearded men wearing tall hats and wielding massive Magic Staffs stepped out of the Teleportation Gates.
Ten Mage Bosses had also appeared!
Damn it! The Forbidden Magic Domain can’t be used! I can only use the Break Towers! But their cooldowns can’t keep up!
The ten Magic-type Bosses had only just appeared when they raised their hands, conjuring a Gale Forbidden Curse out of thin air. Instantly, a violent gale blew toward the city in the center. The mist surrounding the city was immediately dispersed. Even the falling blizzard was blown off course.
Previously, during his own siege, the Forbidden Magic Domain had allowed Shen Fei to dispatch an incredibly powerful Magic Boss as if it were an ordinary person. Now, however, during this city defense, Domain-type items were forbidden. He couldn’t use the Forbidden Magic Domain, the Gravity Domain, the Earth Spike Domain, or the Celestial Tribulation Domain. With their numbers increased tenfold, the Mage Bosses were finally able to unleash their power. The moment they made their move, the steady attack rhythm of Shen Fei’s Defense Towers was broken.
"Careful!"
"Watch out!"
"Look out!"
The mist was blown away in the blink of an eye. As Shen Fei was observing the situation, trying to decide which Defense Tower to summon to counter the bosses, everyone cried out in alarm. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
The moment the mist receded and revealed the Defense Towers on the city wall, the ten purple Knight Bosses drew their bows and fired. Ten destructive giant arrows shot toward the wall. The sight of them tearing through space and seemingly burning everything in their path startled everyone.
During the previous siege, that arrow had been dodged, and it had subsequently annihilated a large swath of land behind the battlefield. This time, however, as the defenders, they couldn’t afford to dodge. If they dodged, the arrows would fly right into the city. If they struck and destroyed the Heart of the City, the defense would fail instantly.
When Shen Fei and the others had been on the attack, they had held back, worried that damaging the city would mean they’d have to repair it themselves after capturing it. But when this bunch of NPCs attacked, they had no such concerns. Countless powerful attacks were launched without a moment’s hesitation.
Damn, this won’t be easy to block!
Looking at the ten incredibly powerful arrows, which carried an overwhelming momentum, Shen Fei knew he had Earth Wall Towers, Crystal Wall Towers, and Wave-Folding Guardian Towers at his disposal. However, he was worried that if these Defense Towers blocked the arrows, the impact would trigger a massive explosion. So, Shen Fei didn’t deploy these towers, which were purely defensive and had no Attack Power.
In a flash of inspiration, he deployed a Defense Tower that no one expected.
SHIMMER!
A Defense Tower with ten rings of light hanging on it appeared. Shen Fei had deployed the Teleportation Gate Tower, which allowed things to enter one gate and exit another.
SHIMMER!
SHIMMER!
SHIMMER!
The moment the Teleportation Gate Tower appeared, Shen Fei controlled its ten Teleportation Gates, placing them in front of the purple arrows that had already reached the edge of the city wall. At that moment, the spatial fluctuations caused by the lightning-fast, giant purple arrows were already causing the city wall’s health to drop rapidly.
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
In the blink of an eye, the Teleportation Gate Tower successfully absorbed the purple arrows.
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
SWOOSH!
The arrows traveled through the Defense Tower’s subspace. Then, the Teleportation Gates repositioned, and the ten purple arrows shot out from them once more.
However, this time, the arrows were aimed at the attackers!
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Not daring to use the ten arrows to attack the Knight Bosses for fear that the Knights would regain control of them, Shen Fei directed the purple arrows toward the ordinary cavalry charging outside the city wall the instant they reappeared.
The ten purple arrows landed, and a purple mist billowed out silently.
All the cavalry NPCs on the battlefield were wiped out in a single move.
"Control!"
Ignoring the massive number of cavalry now pouring out of the large Teleportation Gates again, Shen Fei turned his attention to the 20 bosses: ten Knight Bosses and ten Mage Bosses.
I have to prioritize the bosses!
WHOOSH!
WHOOSH!
WHOOSH!
At Shen Fei’s command, ten more Defense Towers were deployed—ten towers specifically designed to attack bosses.
Instantly, white beams of light shot out at a rate of twenty times per second, striking the ten Mage Bosses. These were the Break Towers. Since a Magic Ban was out of the question, his only option was to rapidly interrupt any powerful magic spells that required chanting.
CLANG!
CLANG!
CLANG!
Suppressed by the Break Towers, the Magic-type Bosses could only retaliate with instant-cast minor skills like small fireballs.
Next, Shen Fei operated the Vine Towers. They instantly transformed into their strongest form—ironwood vines—and bound the legs of the ten Knight Bosses’ horses.
SNAP!
SNAP!
SNAP!
Although the bosses were incredibly powerful and were rapidly snapping the binding ironwood vines, the swaying and pulling of the vines still affected the Knight Bosses’ aim, preventing them from firing those super-powered giant purple arrows again.
"Annihilate!"
Facing the ten bound Knight Bosses, Shen Fei fired another beam of Destructive Light.
"Huh?"
But this time, the ten Knight Bosses weren’t destroyed. The Mage Bosses, whose ultimate spells were being interrupted, had each cast an instant, small Teleportation Gate, moving the bound and immobilized Knight Bosses out of the way.
The massive beam of Destructive Light only obliterated a large group of cavalry.
