Chapter 2648: Chapter 1457: The Depths of the Black Fog (Part 2)
Listening to Loris’s words, Leo Ray glanced around. Indeed, surrounding that Forest White Giant City were nurous ruins and collapsed structures. Judging from the vast scale, it was evident that a brilliant civilization once stood here.
Now, these low, ruined remnants contrasted sharply with the towering Forest White Giant City, as if silently narrating a harsh history.
Finally, Leo Ray fixed his gaze on the solid city walls of the Forest White Giant City.
At that mont, the city walls were filled with witch demons and high-tier undead soldiers, their hollow eye sockets emitting an eerie red light, distinctly different from the usual lower-tier undead army.
Under the protection of the Absolute Defense Barrier, they appeared fearlessly arrogant, condescendingly gazing at our group that had approached the city, with their eyes full of contempt and murderous intent.
In contrast, our group of ten thousand appeared insignificant before the grand Forest White Giant City, like a colony of ants trying to shake a giant tree.
“Prepare to siege.”
Aware of the urgency, Leo Ray waved his hand, and rows of Magic Cannons imdiately appeared at the front of our formation.
These Magic Cannons were specially selected by Leo Ray for their extended range, aiming to attack from beyond the opponent’s range, as relying solely on our limited forces, even if we broke through the enemy city with the Absolute Defense Barrier, would deplete the energy of our magic powerhouses, unfavorable for the next battle.
Since all the strong here were elite among elites, in the blink of an eye, ten thousand Magic Cannons were deployed, their dark barrels aid at the enemy city walls.
“Attack!”
With Leo Ray’s command, the magical radiance of our formation under the Forest White City walls intensified, and visible compressed magic bullets streaked through the sky like teors towards the enemy city walls.
When the colorful magic bullets struck the opponent’s barrier wall, they were like teors falling into the sea, imdiately stirring wave after wave of violent energy disturbances.
Due to our range exceeding that of the opponent, they did not blindly retaliate, rely observing in silence from their city walls.
After the first round of Magic Cannon strikes, the second round comnced imdiately, followed by the third and fourth rounds, creating a deafening roar that didn’t stop, with energy gusts sweeping around, sending sand and dust flying everywhere.
Leo Ray watched the orderly alternating bombardnt of our magic powerhouses with satisfaction.
Although all were Tier 3 or above Magic Cannons, and many were even Tier 4 and Tier 5, far exceeding the energy limits of the Demon Energy Luminous Crystal, the ones present were all Tier 5 or higher, their efficiency in empowering the Magic Cannons far surpassing ordinary soldiers.
Leo Ray even noticed that the Fairy Clan powerhouses led by Fanny, Crisis, and Old Susan were simultaneously empowering multiple Magic Cannons with ease, despite having just experienced a major battle last night.
With Leo Ray’s various high-tier magic dicine supplies, everyone’s mana had mostly recovered, enough to attack with relative ease.
Besides, the physical-type powerhouses were not idle either. Supported by range-increasing spells, various crossbows, throwing spears, and stones rained down like a shower, tracing fierce paths in the air.
For a mont, our Magic Cannon fire and physical ranged attacks overwheld everything, thinning the originally dense black fog, and although the opponent’s Absolute Defense Barrier showed no cracks, its strange luster dimd significantly, indicating that the opponent was undoubtedly under great pressure.
“Your Majesty of the Humans, if we continue like this, breaking through the opponent’s Absolute Defense Barrier is just a matter of ti!”
Sina’s pale face was full of excitent, nodding to Leo Ray.
Previously, her newly acquired sixth-order equipnt was snatched by Belinda, but later returned, and she was eager to try, despite her injuries from last night’s ambush not being fully healed.
“Indeed, once we break through this Absolute Defense Barrier, I will be the first to charge onto the city wall!”
Loris’s lion-like face also showed impatience, holding a sixth-order giant axe shining brightly.
Listening to their high-spirited words, Leo Ray only smiled in response without comnting.
Given the current situation, the opponent was just taking hits without any action, which didn’t match the cunning nature of the witch demons.
It was easy to see that the opponent must be brewing so conspiracy.
“According to the scout’s report, as I predicted, the undead army from other Skeleton Fortresses is gathering here, attempting to encircle us.”
“But even the nearest Skeleton Fortress’s army would take an estimated hour to arrive, and their limited forces an facing us alone would be suicidal, indicating they must wait for reinforcents from other Skeleton Fortresses, which will consu more ti.”
“As for the hidden backer, they won’t easily reveal themselves until the mont of crisis for the witch demon.”
“In other words, apart from the encirclent and backer, the opponent must have other ans to counter us; otherwise, the witch demons on the city wall wouldn’t be so composed.”
Leo Ray lightly rubbed his chin, pondering in his mind.
The question now was, what other thods would the opponent use?
After all, our forces were the elite of the elite, and even with the black fog boosting them, the opponent wouldn’t recklessly go head-to-head with us.
As Leo Ray thought this, his gaze instinctively shifted backwards.
However, from the Forest White Giant City in front to the low surrounding ruins, and then to the dense black fog in the sky, he didn’t find anything unusual.
“Could I be overthinking things?”
Just as Leo Ray wondered if he was being overly nervous and overestimating the enemy, the doubtful voices of Xiao Jing and Little Jie suddenly sounded almost simultaneously near his ears: “My Lord, I suddenly sensed a hint of a kindred presence!”
“Are you saying there are other unfamiliar Stones of God around us?”
Leo Ray was stunned at first, then imdiately reacted.
Could it be that the opponent also had a Stone Spirit, and the Stone Spirit was the key to their hidden tactic?
But Little Jie’s subsequent response denied Leo Ray’s assumption: “My Lord, it is indeed a Stone of God, but the opponent is extrely weak, no stronger than the previously sleeping Stone of God.”
“Extrely weak? That almost rules out any threat.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
If that’s the case, the possibility of the opponent using a Stone of God is essentially ruled out; the cunning nature of witch demons naturally wouldn’t result in a head-on confrontation.
With this thought, a touch of confusion again surfaced on Leo Ray’s face.
This is, after all, the depths of the Land of Howling; why is there an extrely weak Stone of God appearing here?
Just as Leo Ray was puzzled, Xiao Jing’s next words added to his confusion.
“My Lord, strangely, I sensed no unfamiliar kin earlier; that presence appeared as if it suddenly popped up.”
After Xiao Jing spoke, Little Jie imdiately nodded in agreent, as the situation she encountered was apparently identical.
“Not only a very weak Stone of God, but it also suddenly appeared?”
In his puzzlent, Leo Ray further inquired: “Where is that presence now?”
“My Lord, it is right beneath us.”
Xiao Jing and Little Jie replied in unison, both pointing to the ground.
“What?!”
Hearing this, Leo Ray’s expression suddenly tensed.
