Chapter 291 Siege of the city, failure of divine descent (2/2)
Rumble—
Amidst the wild laughter of the gunners, nearly a thousand magic energy cannons, their thick and long barrels lit up with extreme brilliance, and then the roar shook the sky, and nearly a thousand bright magic energy cannonballs poured out like a meteor shower, piercing the sky and hitting directly. fortress.
Every shelling was like the earth shattering, causing the earth to tremble.
Smoke and dust billowed into the air, and flames shot into the sky.
"Defend, defend!"
From the towering energy magic tower, bright light pillars rose, and then like light curtains, enveloped the entire fortress.
The stone man commander on top of the fortress had taken the lead in activating the city's defense system before that. A steady stream of energy was extracted from the earth's mountains and turned into a thick energy shield, blocking the front of the fortress. , intercepted all the incoming energy cannons,
The violent bombardment hit the energy shield with a deafening explosion. Every impact caused the energy shield to shake violently. The stone warriors below couldn't help but tremble in fear when they saw this.
But fortunately, although the energy shield keeps shaking, it is always strong and has not been broken.
The stone man commander's eyes were firm and calm, and his precise command allowed the fortress's defense system to maximize its effectiveness.
"It's really troublesome, this kind of defense system built based on terrain." Chang Li looked at the unmoving fortress in front of him, frowned slightly, and felt a little trouble.
It is no exaggeration to say that if there are no other means, relying on this fortress, an army of hundreds of thousands can stop an army of millions.
The terrain advantage is too obvious.
But this is also related to the power held by the Stoneman True God. He can easily change the landscape of the earth.
As his dependents, although the Stoneman believers are much inferior, they still have this ability. Therefore, most of the territory of the Stoneman Empire is not natural landforms, but is formed by acquired modifications.
This kind of landform is very suitable for stone men to fight.
Just like the fortress of Santander in front of you, you don't need to do anything. It connects with the surrounding mountains to form an impenetrable defense system, and then sends hundreds of thousands of soldiers to garrison it. A normal army, even if it comes to a million, Claws numb.
But having said that, Chang Li only found it troublesome and did not feel discouraged. After all, this fortress was based on his intelligence.
The bombardment is still continuing. The crystal energy required by the magic cannon is a conventional resource for the Eternal Night Empire. The reserve is unlimited and can be consumed at will without worrying about running out.
The same is true for the Stoneman Fortress. Strictly speaking, the defense system of their fortress does not rely solely on spar energy. The nearby mountains and earth can provide support.
If it is just to block artillery bombardment, there will be no problem at all if it lasts for a few months.
"Counterattack! Destroy those magic cannons for me!"
Seeing that the magic cannon could not break through the defensive shield, the stone man generals also calmed down. As the situation stabilized, under the command of the stone man generals, they also launched a series of counterattacks.
The magic towers lit up one after another. Under the control of the sanctuary-level stone magician, huge magic energy **** condensed in the sky, and then like meteorites, they smashed towards the position of the black-armored army.
"Exploding Earth Star!"
Under the expectant gazes of all the stone men, the magic ball crashed down and hit the location where the magic cannon was placed.
"A boring trick."
Chang Li took a look and commented.
Above the hundreds of thousands of black-armored troops, one of the war fortresses lit up with extreme darkness, and then a huge black hole that was constantly rotating, like a shield, blocked the front of many magic balls.
Swish Swish Swish—
Puff puff —
The magic ball smashed into the black hole, like sand flowing into the sea, and it was silent for an instant, without any sound.
Then, before the stone soldiers on the fortress could react, a huge rotating black hole appeared again in the sky above the war fortress, and its direction was aimed at the stone man fortress.
"Give it back to you!" The magic demigod chuckled.
"not good!"
The face of Mario, the leader of the stone men, suddenly changed, and he immediately said: "Increase the energy output of the defensive shield to the maximum, and prepare for the impact." As soon as he finished speaking, countless magic **** shot out of the black hole, blasting towards the war fortress.
There was no time to react. The magic ball arrived in front of him in an instant.
Bang bang bang—
A series of explosions sounded in front of the fortress, like a barrage of cannons, shaking the hearts of every stone man present. Each explosion was accompanied by dazzling light and billowing smoke. Under the violent impact, the energy shield made a dull sound and began to shake violently, as if it might break at any time.
Fortunately, Mario, the leader of the stone man, reacted quickly enough to maximize the output of the energy shield regardless of energy consumption. Otherwise, he might not have been able to withstand the double blow of the wave of magic **** and magic cannons.
It has to be said that this fortress of the Stone Man Empire has done very well in all aspects, whether it is the terrain selection or the construction of the defense system.
But there is one disadvantage. The garrison in the fortress is not strong enough.
Whether it is weapons and equipment, prop scrolls, or battleship fortresses, in the final analysis they are just external objects, an auxiliary tool.
In the end, it is the user who determines the outcome.
It can be made clear with the most obvious change.
In previous battles, the soldiers in the army were still mainly low-level warriors. At that time, a city wall of more than ten meters was like an insurmountable chasm for ordinary soldiers. Every time they attacked the city, huge damage would occur.
But now, a city wall hundreds of meters high would be breached in an instant without the blessing of energy shields and magic arrays.
As time goes by, the effective proportion of the warrior's own strength in battle has become higher and higher.
Compared with this eternal night army, the strength of the stone men in the Santander Fortress is several levels lower, so even if they occupy a favorable location, they will not have much effect.
In the following time, neither side sent troops to fight.
While bombarding with magic cannons, they fought back with magic towers. The fighting was back and forth, and the scene was very fierce. However, looking at the casualties, the number did not exceed three digits.
The Yongye army is not in a hurry. They have sufficient logistical support. Even if they spend several months here, there will be no problem at all.
Moreover, they have already begun to build a teleportation gate at the back.
When the teleportation gate is completed, a steady stream of servant legions will pour in here.
The attackers were not in a hurry, and the stone defenders who relied on the fortress were even less anxious.
Their follow-up support troops are on their way, and the reserves of logistics supplies in the fortress are enough for them to spend a long time.
So, the two sides just went back and forth with each other.
Lasted for three full days.
"Now that we have found out the details, there is no need to waste time."
Chang Li looked at the fortress in the distance, smiled coldly, and then launched an all-out attack.
Two war fortresses and hundreds of magic warships were activated at the same time. The dark magicians inside began to exert their strength. The entire sky suddenly dimmed, and darkness began to envelope the land.
The dark elements from hundreds of miles around gathered directly. The soldiers of the Eternal Night Army looked up to the sky and roared, making deafening roars. Their eyes flashed with crazy light. In this veil of darkness, they seemed to feel the gaze of the God of Darkness.
One by one, the magic warships began to gather energy, and the main guns began to shine brightly, like stars twinkling in the night sky. These magic battleships are like lights in the darkness, illuminating the battlefield and the hearts of every Eternal Night warrior.
As the light lit up, the battleship's main gun began to charge up, and the energy condensed at the muzzle, forming dazzling rays of light. This is the condensation of magical energy, the combination of technology and magic, and it is a masterpiece of the Eternal Night Empire.
"Defense! Defense! Activate the strongest defense and stop them!"
"Try your best to knock those iron lumps off for me!"
The stone men in the fortress did not sit still and wait for death. While raising the defense level of the city, they launched a fierce offensive against the magic warships above the sky.
Thick and long magic spears, and magic **** exuding explosive aura, shot at the magic battleship, as dense as raindrops, forming a sea of magic.
Every shot is like thunder, shaking the battlefield and touching the hearts of every stone warrior.
However, the reality is extremely cruel. Under the protection of the two war fortresses, these magic blows were directly offset before they even got close.
"emission!"
Following an order, hundreds of bright magical energy beams poured out like a meteor shower, piercing the sky and hitting the fortress.
Rumble—
The sky shattered and the earth collapsed.
The stone man fortress raised a thicker energy shield.
At the same time, huge stone barriers rose from the ground in front of the city wall, like shields raised by warriors, protecting the city fortress behind.
On the mountains on both sides, as a large number of rocks fell off, the vast elemental power turned into countless golden beams and shot forward.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The energy network composed of the incoming golden beam was instantly penetrated by the dark energy cannon and turned invisible. Immediately afterwards, the boulder barrier was also shattered.
Under the horrified eyes of the stone people, countless dark beams descended.
Dong Dong Dong—
The energy shield covering the fortress continued to ripple, and the terrifying impact of the dark beam caused it to sag inward, and huge black spots appeared.
The two huge forces continued to confront each other and began to dissolve each other.
However, it can be clearly seen that as time goes by, the dark beam is somewhat unable to follow up. After all, the Stoneman Fortress is built on the earth. As long as it is not broken down instantly, it has endless energy, which does not require anything at all.
However, the offensive of Yong Ye's army goes far beyond that.
I saw that the war fortress that was originally located in front of the magic warship and acted as a guard had now risen to an altitude of several thousand meters.
Two magic demigods rose high and stood on the high platform.
The magicians in the war fortress also began to exert their strength. In an instant, the two war fortresses were fully fired, and the aura of terror began to spread.
"Under the power of my Lord, turn into ashes!"
The two Eternal Night demigods showed their true colors and turned into elemental giants hundreds of meters high. The magic staffs in their hands were connected, and a magic ball filled with extreme darkness condensed on them.
As the two roared, the magic ball was immediately shot out, spanning tens of thousands of meters in an instant, and came directly in front of the energy shield.
Bang—
A shocking explosion sounded.
There was no time to stop him. Even the Stoneman True God who was watching the battle from the sky was half a beat too late and failed to stop him in time.
The energy shield shattered in response, and the black ball devoured and corroded everything in front of it in the blink of an eye. Whether it was props, items, or stone soldiers, they all disappeared without a trace.
A semicircular gap with a radius of more than ten meters was created in the majestic and tall city wall. Inside the fortress, a "road" was plowed out that stretched for thousands of meters and was bottomless.
"Damn it! Stop them, stop them, repair the magic circle quickly, don't let them rush up!"
The stone man commander who had escaped the disaster was still a little frightened. The black ball just now was less than ten meters away from him. If it were any closer, his soul would return to the divine realm.
However, as a qualified general, he quickly suppressed the fear in his heart and began to command the panicked stone soldiers.
But Yong Ye's army obviously didn't want to give him this opportunity.
"attack!"
Chang Li's expression did not change, and he immediately revealed a trump card. The power of the entire legion began to gather, and finally gathered on a demigod warrior in front.
The aura of the demigod warrior began to soar, and in the blink of an eye, he stepped onto the threshold of a powerful demigod.
Roaring, his figure quickly expanded and turned into a dark giant hundreds of meters tall.
The dark giant sword in his hand shone with dazzling black light, and the surrounding dark forces began to respond to the call and gather together.
"Open it for me!"
The giant sword was swung down, and the dark sword energy, hundreds of meters long, slashed straight towards the fortress wall ahead.
The sky cracked.
"No!!"
Looking at the incoming dark sword energy, all the stone soldiers looked desperate.
"Damn! Do you really think I don't exist?"
The true dwarf **** above the sky couldn't stand it anymore after seeing this scene. His figure flashed, and he wanted to rely on the faith of the believers below to make a divine descent. However, as soon as he took action, a layer of darkness spread around him.
Bang—
The extremely hard fortress wall was directly split into a gap nearly a hundred meters wide.
"Today the city is destroyed!"
The demigod commander roared again, then slowly landed on the ground, almost losing his strength and falling down.
The other Yongye warriors naturally couldn't see his weakness, but were completely ignited by his operations.
The Earth Dragon Knight was the first to rush out, riding the majestic Earth Dragon mount like a heavily armored tank, past the metal giant warriors, and ran towards the gap in the city wall.
However, although they rushed fast, there were legions faster than them.
A cavalry legion armed with scimitars, like a gust of wind, arrived first and turned into an afterimage. It instantly surpassed the Earth Dragon Knight and rushed into the gap first.
