574: Chapter 180 Amethyst Mystery (Part 2) 574: Chapter 180 Amethyst Mystery (Part 2) Standing atop the battlements, Anchelotti directed the city’s defenses while his gaze remained relentlessly on Ye Yinzhu in the distance.
Was that even human anymore?
Just by himself, plus his panion, they had caused chaos that surpassed the turmoil of thousands of troops.
It was precisely because of Ye Yinzhu and Zi’s arrival and their disruption of the enemy’s center that the charge of the Flore Empire’s army had slowed down a bit.
The mages were about to collapse.
Within Spirit City, some less powerful mages had already lost their precious lives due to overexerting their spiritual power.
Yet the enemy’s magic attacks surged wave after wave, and the bloodthirsty Flore soldiers had already charged to the city walls.
Defenders shoved the cloud ladders down time and again, yet the enemy persistently set them up anew, with the closest arrow tower already engaging in crossfire with the Milan Warriors atop the city.
Siege towers had even delivered the enemy’s melee troops to the walls.
“Pitch, rolling wood, boulders, give it all you’ve got!” Anchelotti cried out frantically, and the last of the defensive forces finally sprang into action.
Because the battering rams below had begun to take effect, once the gates were breached, how could the Milanese possibly withstand the assault of hundreds of thousands?
The Milan Warriors, to protect more lives, to defend their nation, fought desperately on the battlements against the onslaught of bloodthirsty enemies.
Angry roars sounded at the most crucial moment.
The Milanese had no Blood Mages, but they did have Claw Druids.
Along with the effects of the Roaring Magic, and the faint yellow glow that enveloped the bodies of the Milan Warriors, the battleground instantaneously turned even more ferocious.
Faced with the Flore Soldiers, after the effects of the blood fury and roaring, it was no longer clear who was stronger.
The collision itself was a mutual destruction.
It was a matter of will and numbers.
The people of Flore waited in madness for Spirit City’s magic defense to pletely collapse.
Once that happened, the Milanese would have no more strength to block them from ascending the city walls.
The Milan Warriors also waited.
They waited for their mander, Earl Ye Yinzhu, who had suddenly e to give them countless surprises, to suppress the enemy’s magic attacks.
However, pared to the people of Flore, their wait was much more difficult.
By this point in the battle, the Flore frontline warriors who had been sent exceeded 150,000.
Under the bloodlust haze, 150,000 fearless Flore Warriors charged crazily towards the battlements.
No one retreated; there was only the relentless advance to destroy the enemies ahead—a chance for the rise of Flore.
Under the effect of bloodthirst, they had also entirely forgotten all pain and everything else.
Boom— Zi’s Heavy Sword in hand sent a Dragon Knight, along with the dragon, flying outwards, but because two other Dragon Knights pounced from the side to tangle with him, he couldn’t seize the opportunity to pletely annihilate the opponent.
He could only watch as the Fenglong that got smacked away spread its wings to slow down the impact.
Zi was like Spirit City at this moment, and those ten Dragon Knights were like the Flore Soldiers.
The defense of the Amethyst Behemoth might not be as strong as that of the Mountain Giant and War Behemoth, but it was not so easily breached.
The continuous attacks from these ten Dragon Knights were exhausting Zi as much as possible.
They dared not attack with full force, for the seventeen-meter-long Heavy Sword was too terrifying for the Flore Dragon Knights.
However, they were very clear that as long as they entangled Zi, their opponent was bound to fail.
For some reason, Zi, who had never known retreat, had actually adopted a defensive posture.
The Amethyst Heavy Sword in his hand, as solid as a door panel, kept blocking the enemy’s attacks without much retaliating.
His crystalline magic power was not released either.
He just coldly watched his opponents.
Though his physical strength was gradually depleting, it was impossible for these Dragon Knights to break through his defense in a short time.
The area of death formed by the Death Sound Blade, after ending the lives of three hundred warriors of the Blood Color Guard, finally left nobody daring to enter its range by even a step.
Suddenly, Ye Yinzhu’s Sound Blade ceased, and he violently closed his eyes, waving both hands simultaneously.
With his left hand pushing down and his right hand lightly plucking, he pleted the last note.
Those ripples of purple light that spread outwards had now, at this moment, converged into a massive torrent and finally burst forth.
The gentle zither music displayed what it was originally capable of at this instant.
“Forget Machine,” also known as the Singing Phoenix’s Forget Machine, one of the nine famous pieces of the Zither Sect, effect: Sleep.
The pervasive zither music suddenly coalesced.
Those scattered halos were unexpectedly released towards the Blood Color Guard, who had frighteningly halted in their tracks, all under an invisible force’s control.
The gentle zither music, the Zi rank divine sound—how could these members of the Blood Color Guard possibly withstand it?
The next moment, these soldiers of the Blood Color Guard, like the tide, fell down.
They had fallen asleep.
As many as one thousand seven hundred of the Flore elite had thus fallen, not just they, but the Heavy Cavalry on the sides defending the mages also collapsed like cut wheat, along with their mounts, losing all capacity to resist.
Ye Yinzhu moved, picking up his Desolate Dragon Yin’s Zither and charging resolutely forward.
At this moment, nobody could see the lines of blood visible on all eight fingers of his hands.
The zither music forming the full Sound Blade was such an enormous drain that only Ye Yinzhu himself knew.
He didn’t choose an even more terrifying zither piece not because he couldn’t, but because he understood if he did, he might never be able to leave this battlefield.
He couldn’t die.
Fighting for Milan was merely a strategy of Qin City.
If he had to sacrifice himself for this strategy, it would certainly not be worth it.
Moreover, his true purpose in ing out of the city was not the Blood Color Guard or the Flore Soldiers.
After all, how could he and Zi possibly kill hundreds of thousands of people?
Holding his ultimate goal in mind, Ye Yinzhu accelerated fiercely and charged forward.
At this moment, he had already expended over forty percent of his magic and Douqi.
Kusler finally felt fear.
The distance had now bee much shorter than from the city walls, allowing him to clearly see Ye Yinzhu’s figure.
The shock this young man in white brought to him was too significant.
As a mander, even though he was a Purple Star Dragon Knight, Kusler never believed that individual strength could play any role in the grand scale of a battlefield.
But right now, he knew he was wrong.
This young man in front of him had shown through his actions that individual bat power could indeed turn the tides in a battle.
“Mages, concentrate your attacks on the person in white.
Third and Fourth Heavy Cavalry Corps, listen to my mand—you must block this person, even if it costs you your lives.” Kusler was indeed wise, and he made the quickest response in the shortest amount of time.
Regrettably, his reaction was still a bit slower pared to Ye Yinzhu’s speed.
At least his two Heavy Cavalry Corps no longer had any chance of joining the battle.
Because, there were simply too many of their rades lying asleep in front of them.
Kusler absolutely did not believe that all this was calculated by Ye Yinzhu, as the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing.
Yet, the precarious situation now unfolding in front of him was just that.
Having lost the protection of the Blood Color Guard, those five hundred most important mages of the Flore Kingdom were like lambs about to be roasted, pletely exposed to Ye Yinzhu’s murderous gaze.
The mages certainly felt that immense threat.
When Ye Yinzhu unleashed his Zither Magic, these mages felt fear.
From the spiritual fluctuations, they could certainly tell it was magic, but what kind of magic could put thousands of warriors into a deep slumber?
It was an existence parable to a Forbidden Curse.
Little did they know, every piece played by the Zither Sect’s Ziwei Qinxin, if pleted, had an effect parable to a Forbidden Curse.
The five hundred mages, already having expended a great deal of their Magic Power while continuously attacking Spirit City, watched as Ye Yinzhu approached them like a ghost, the most they could do was to cast their magic as fast as possible.
They had only one goal—to never let Ye Yinzhu get close.
Hundreds of low-level Instant Magic spells filled the air in an instant.
This time it wasn’t a carpet bombing but a concentrated volley aimed solely at Ye Yinzhu.
Low-level magic wasn’t frightening, but when hundreds of such spells appear at the same time, targeting the same person, their power was enough to instill fear.
With Ye Yinzhu’s speed and Douqi, he could have easily dodged the spells before they reached him, as he had the strength to do so.
However, he did not do that and instead raised his hands, directly facing the onslaught of low-level magic attacks.
It wasn’t that Ye Yinzhu didn’t want to dodge, but that he couldn’t.
The situation on the field was fully imprinted in his spiritual power.
In a brief moment, the Heavy Cavalry affected by “Forgetful Machine” had been dragged to one side, and the two Heavy Cavalry Corps on either side were speeding towards this area at their fastest pace.
If he dodged this first barrage of low-level magic, his speed would inevitably slow down.
What would follow would be constant harassment by low-level magic spells.
If that happened, he would not have the chance to reach the enemy mages before the opposing Heavy Cavalry arrived.
Therefore, within one ten-thousandth of a second, Ye Yinzhu chose to meet the force head-on.
