Wild beasts have no intelligence, they only use brute force to climb walls and breathe without any technical content, but even then, it's scary enough. If it weren't for the legendary level of tempered blessing applied to the wall at Vildani's feet, I am afraid that it would have been shattered by the tsunami-like magic breath.

Looking sideways at the city guards who were busy debugging all kinds of defensive equipment and the soldiers who were rapidly deploying the defenses not far away, the purple-haired mage knew that all the available troops in Moldova were here, even the civilians who could fight were all used, but even so, compared to the increasing army of wild beasts, it was not worth mentioning like a drop in the bucket.

"It's been three days since the letter was sent...... No reply, no assistance. ”

Fiercely slammed the staff in her hand towards the ground, Verdany's heart didn't know whether it was anxiety or pain, she paused word by word, gritted her teeth and said: "Those people, why don't you understand!" If the fortress of Moldova is breached, then the entire territory of the Northland will not be able to escape! Without a fortress converted from a mountain range, these beasts can run wild on any manor or village! ”

After venting for a while, the mage knew it was useless, so she regained her composure. Shaking her head, the countess looked at the approaching beast tide and frowned in thought.

Click.

Footsteps sounded behind the purple-haired mage.

Turning her head, Verdani saw a blonde-haired, red-eyed swordsman.

"You're here."

Facing this swordsman dressed in plain brown leather armor and carrying two long swords at his waist, the mage sighed lightly, and then stopped speaking, and the swordsman walked up to the mage, hugged her silently, and then said calmly and straightforwardly: "I came from the imperial capital, Dani...... Come with me. ”

Let go of his hands, look directly into the eyes of the purple-haired mage, and without waiting for the other party to reply, he continued: "This beast tide has exceeded the normal scale, I can see that there is a chaotic aura behind this, this is no longer a situation that an earl or a territory can handle, I will inform His Majesty the Emperor and ask him to dispatch the five major legions to help you exterminate the beast tide...... But until then, you must not stay in this dangerous situation. ”

As he spoke, the blonde, red-eyed swordsman's gaze was as firm as a rock, and his unshakable will could be seen.

"Brandon Kaos ......"

Shaking her head, the countess refused with a wry smile: "Not to mention that the five major legions have long been overwhelmed by the beast tide in order to suppress the rebellion in the central region of the empire...... Do you mean that I want to give up my territory and my people and live alone? This is impossible, I understand your good intentions, but I cannot promise you. ”

"In the face of 200,000 mad demonic beasts with a chaotic aura, it is impossible for you to hold on."

The swordsman named Brandon didn't answer directly, he simply pointed out a question: "As a golden mage, there is no value in your sacrifice here. ”

Speaking of this, his tone changed, and there was even a hint of pleading: "Dani, if it was before, I would definitely accompany you to defend this fortress, as long as I am with you, even if it is death, I will be willing to die...... But now that you are the mother of our children, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your daughters, who can't afford to lose their mothers. ”

The purple-haired mage fell silent, and her mind conjured up the images of two young girls, the older inheriting her mother's violet hair and the younger with the same blond hair as her father.

The countess's gaze softened a little, but she still refused: "Brandon, I confess that I am indeed not a proper mother...... My daughter can be handed over to you to take away, and I will live and die with my territory, this is my fate. ”

"Do you mean that I, who is also a gold-level, watched my woman die in the mouth of the demonic beast, and then fled despicably by myself?"

And it's not your fate at all!

The purple-haired mage shook his head silently, not answering the question.

Not knowing how to persuade the woman in front of him, the blonde swordsman was extremely irritable, but he couldn't tell what he said he knew.

As a legendary mage who sealed the narrow passage of the otherworldly space-time hundreds of years ago, and a direct descendant of Kabbalah Kaos, Brandon Kaos naturally knows the truth behind this land. Three of the four major families in the Northland are descendants of heroes who explored the other world and sealed the passage of time and space, but now, except for the Radcliffe family, which has recently broken out in civil strife and the new earl has only succeeded to the throne for a short time, the other families have given up this perseverance and chose to become an ordinary nobleman.

And this beast tide is mixed with a small number of desolate gods, which obviously has traces of chaos believers, and even evil gods have personally attacked, and it should be him and the new chaos keeper of the Radcliffe family who are attacking them, not the female mage in front of him!

Faced with the insistence of his loved one, the Golden Swordsman really didn't know what to do, so he could only stand by her side and watch the beast tide in the distance continue to approach.

(It's really not good, just at the most dangerous time, knock her out and take her away forcibly!) ）

While Brandon was thinking about this, the array of beasts had jumped over the nearest hill and was about to reach the city walls, and all the soldiers defending the city were ready to fight, exhausted by the continuous battles, but they also had a wealth of experience, all kinds of alchemical artillery and enchanted ballistae were fully stocked, and war mages and elemental archers were also ready.

The patrol group composed of silver warriors is always on alert, if there is a demonic beast rushing to the city wall, it will be shot down by them, as long as the city wall does not collapse, then no matter how many demonic beasts there are, they only need to deal with one or two thousand at the same time, if it is only this number, this group of warriors has full confidence.

The herd is getting closer.

Three thousand meters.

2,000 meters.

One kilometer.

It's coming soon.

"Enemy, five hundred meters ahead, ready for battle!"

The sound of the trumpet sounded at the top of the tower, the sound of which was torn apart by the north wind, but it still reached everyone's ears, and everyone was in good spirits at this time, the mages joined forces to connect the magic and construct intricate spell runes, while the archers drew their bows and the city guards who controlled the cannons and ballistas were ready to fire.

"Attack!"

With the order, the glow of the spell illuminated the night sky in an instant, and countless various war spells were jointly cast, and the huge thunder hit the beast group across a distance of hundreds of meters, and the silver-blue electricity flew around, at least more than a hundred various demonic beasts were killed on the spot or lost their ability to move, and the ensuing flames and ice easily ignited and penetrated them all, completely killed.

The mages of Moldova have always been the most of the four realms, and even the lord is a gold-level mage, and after the first wave of spells, there is an overwhelming rain of arrows, which descend with a violent buzzing sound, penetrating countless weak beasts and nailing them to death, while some powerful magical beasts were also injured by arrows with barbs and blood grooves, flowing purple-black turbid blood, and gradually losing their physical strength.

Each launch of the alchemy cannon and the enchanted ballista would bring out a huge void in the dense herd of beasts, and the violent explosion would raise bursts of dust and mist, mixed with the purple-black mist on the beast's body, and then slowly dissipate, but this was only the first wave of beast tides, and after that, there was still a huge army that spread to the horizon roaring forward, and the void caused by the previous bombardment was quickly filled as if it had never appeared.

And the monsters also salute all kinds of breaths, although because of the madness, they can't use more powerful talent spells, but the simplest breath not only does not weaken, but also strengthens because of the increase in magic power.

Shell-like breath struck the city walls, and the rubble broke apart, creating numerous craters, and some of the unlucky soldiers on the walls were hit, either frozen, burned, or blackened by electricity, and died instantly.

Under the protection of the tower, the mages did not receive too many attacks, their magic power quickly recovered with the assistance of the magic circle, and they continued to release one spell after another, and the archers also did not stop, they delayed the progress of the beasts, but the front of the beast tide still advanced step by step, touching the bottom of the city wall, and countless flying giant bats and flying dragons in the air also came to the sky above the fortress.

Dizzying ultrasound and icy breath fell from the sky, disrupting the bombardment rhythm of the alchemy artillery on the city wall, and suddenly the speed of the beast tide was even further, and the already countless sunken city walls were full of monster bodies, quickly crawling upward.

"Troublesome bugs."

Seeing this scene, the countess, who had been silent, snorted coldly, and she raised her gray ironwood staff and aimed it at the sky.

The light between the fortresses seemed to brighten all at once, and the gloom was swept away, and one after another long red lines formed a complex pattern like gears in the atmosphere under the will of the golden mage Verdani, and they were superimposed on top of each other to form a magnificent and beautiful huge six-pointed star circle.

Gold-level magic [Star of David].

And in the next instant, countless crimson golden beams shot out from the center of the magic circle, hitting the giant bats and flying dragons in mid-air at the speed of light, and every time these beams hit the target, they would bring a huge explosion, and they would also change direction and hit another demonic beast.

Suddenly, countless charred black and foul-smelling corpses rained down, as if they were afraid of this terrifying power, and the herd of flying demonic beasts immediately moved away, and no longer dared to get too close to the top of the fortress, but harassed them from a distance with their breath and natural abilities.

The battle is at a stalemate, but the advantage is not on the human side, in order to guard against the possible sneak attack of gold-level monsters and flying species that have been hovering in the air, Verdani and Brandon, the two golden powerhouses, can only occasionally make a move, to repel the demonic beasts that are about to climb the city wall, although the mages and archers in the tower and all kinds of alchemy equipment are still causing a lot of damage, but for the beast tide that really has no end, this is just better than nothing.

As time passed, the piles of corpses at the base of the city walls were getting higher and higher, and the spirit of some of the lower level mages was no longer sustainable, the archers generally used more than ten quivers, and most of the alchemical artillery had stopped firing, and the gunners had begun to draw their long swords and follow the patrol to sweep away the monsters that had climbed to the edge of the city walls.

In the days of fighting, most of the supplies of the Moldovan fortress have long been consumed, and now they are the last stocks.

"No! It can't go on like this. ”

Brandon wielded his twin swords, and the dark cyan fighting spirit swept across the city wall, decapitating a row of climbing beasts, he frowned, and said to Verdani, who had just released two gold-level magic to force back the tide of flying beasts: "In the past, you were able to hold because of sufficient supplies, but now you can't, these beasts seem to be determined to break through the fortress this time, they have piled up a slope with corpses, and you can't hold it without a large amount of siege equipment!" ”

"If you can't keep it, you'll die!"

Due to the continuous use of great magic and some mental exhaustion, the countess's face was extremely pale, and her voice was extremely cold, she seemed to be simply dead: "I can't just abandon these soldiers who fought with me and run away like this!" ”

"You can't die to get revenge in the future, it's pointless to insist now!"

Just as Brandon was about to give up persuasion and prepare to sneak attack the purple-haired mage, he suddenly noticed that a red light lit up at the end of his vision.

The dark and dim cloud curtain was torn apart by a condensed to the extreme, and the stars of the Northland at night and the purple-blue magnificent sky appeared directly in front of everyone, and at the same time as the silver-white moonlight fell, a riding spear wrapped in black-red light galloped over a distance of thousands of meters and landed in the center of the beast tide.

"Whew!"

There was no huge explosion, no dusty explosion, the black-red power exploded for a moment, and then quietly dissipated, but no one dared to ignore this blow, because where it fell, there was only a dead silence, all the wild beasts that came into contact with the black and red light died quietly, and the frozen for thousands of years, the incomparably solid ice and snow frozen soil also collapsed directly, as if it had been directly melted and evaporated, only the steel riding spear stood majestically in the center of the hole.

The Golden Swordsman looked in shock at the place where the light was shining.

With the snow and fog filling and the dust flying, one figure after another climbed over the distant hills and appeared in front of the eyes of everyone on the city wall.

"That's, that's the flag of the Radcliffe family!"

The archer, who was blessed with Eagle Eye and had binoculars, could clearly see the scene in the distance, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise and shouted: "It's reinforcements!" ”

"What?!"
