The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon.

Chapter 56 Anxious Battle Situation

"Second group of guards, relay shooting!"

"After the mages who have exhausted their magic power retreated to the wall, their meditation resumed!"

The guards and apprentices took turns firing in an orderly manner to ensure the greatest advantage in firepower.

The hurried voice of the captain of the guard echoed on the city wall.

At this time, the mayor was concentrating on releasing high-level magic, and had no time to take care of other things.

He has already handed over the combat command to the captain of the guard.

As companions who grew up together since childhood, one of them went to battle qi, and the other chose magic.

In the past, they also formed a small mercenary group by themselves to explore the outside world.

It wasn't until he met her that he disbanded his mercenary group, returned to the small town where he was born and raised, and returned to his normal life.

Now they are in their 40s, and their cooperation is still very tacit.

Time changed their appearance, but failed to change their hearts.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

[Fireball], [Ice Cone], [Ground Spike].

Under the city wall, the monsters slammed their bodies crazily, and some magic beasts that could cast spells released the magic they mastered towards the city wall.

The entire city wall was shaking, as if it was about to collapse in the next moment.

Among the large number of demonic beasts, the [third-tier demonic beast Iron Elephant] was the most threatening to the city wall.

Relying on his huge body, he took the lead and set himself at the forefront, charging towards the city gate.

The bows and arrows of the guards and the magic of the magic apprentice fell on it, only a little sparks burst out, and they couldn't break through the iron elephant's defense at all.

Only the attacks of the mayor and the crossbow can damage it, but only damage.

Its size is too huge, and a little injury can't stop his pace at all.

The muddy swamp area under the city wall has been filled with the corpses of monsters, and the iron-eating elephant crossed this area in three steps.

The long ivory was already aimed at the wooden city gate ahead, and slammed into it hard!

"boom!"

The sound of the flesh colliding with the wood caused nearby soldiers to have tinnitus.

A small piece of ivory has passed through the city gate, only [-] centimeters away from the eyeball of a guard holding a shield behind the gate!

Twenty heavily armed guards behind the city gate have already lined up and stood in place.

Their task is to stop the monsters who want to enter the city after the city gate is destroyed.

The guard with the shield looked horrified at the ivory leaving in front of him. He could already see the crazy monsters outside through the hole in the city gate.

"Can we really...can stop it?"

He couldn't help but questioned himself.

All the guards who saw that scene echoed this thought in their hearts, but none of them retreated.

----

At the moment in Windmill Town.

The crowd was turbulent, and everyone fled here in a panic, hoping to leave through the west gate on the other side.

In fact, when they first learned about the attack of the beast horde, most people in the town didn't know how terrible it was, and many people still took chances and didn't go home.

Later, after the persuasion of the old people in the town, the information was slowly obtained, and the crowd began to panic.

"Powerful mages and mercenaries, I am Tarik, the guard of Windmill Town!"

"Professionals with combat power, please gather here. The beast tide in the east wall is very fierce now, and we need your help!"

Tarik was wearing iron armor, standing in the panicked crowd and shouting loudly, hoping to find helpers.

Crowds of people came and went from all sides of him.

They even try to avoid physical contact with Tariq.

In this dark crowd, a strange circle appeared.

Tariq stood alone in the center, and the one meter around seemed to be a restricted area for humans, and everyone bypassed him.

Tariq repeated the words of rescue over and over again, but no one responded to him.

"Don't run away! We can defeat them! As long as everyone."

Tariq grabbed the arm of a mercenary passing by, but was ruthlessly pushed to the ground.

"Go away, don't drag me if you want to die!"

The mercenary gave Tariq a look of disgust, and then continued to flee towards the west gate.

At this time, any order and rules will lose their meaning, and the only thing that can play a role is the power of those who have a way to deal with the crisis.

But this empowerment at such a moment shows its fragility and vulnerability in human nature.
Dramatic changes in fate often show its humor in this way: no matter how noble, detached, indifferent or mundane you are usually, once you encounter drastic changes, your original human nature will always be squeezed. The depths of your heart come out naturally, and that's who you are.

When some people get the guarantee of life, their requirements are far more than just survival, and material becomes his second need; and sometimes, this need is more than others.

Tariq collapsed on the ground, looking desperately at the crowd in front of him.

"Why, no one is willing to help, even if it's just one person"

Thinking of the mayor and the guards who are still fighting bloody battles at the forefront of the beast tide, the stark contrast with the fleeing humans in front of them.

An abyss of despair enveloped Tariq.

"do not go!"

"Whether it's a god or a devil"

"No matter what price I have to pay!"

"Don't go."

Tariq looked up feebly at the sun in the sky.

"Who is coming.
save us"

"You"

"Do you still need help?"

A girl's figure suddenly emerged from the crowd and appeared in Tariq's field of vision.

A gentle voice sounded.

Silver-white long hair fluttered in the wind, and red pupils were full of seriousness.

Slender willow eyebrows, a straight nose, a baby-fat face that was slightly flushed from running, and delicate lips that were gently opened and closed.

Under the warm sunshine, she seemed to be an angel descending to the world.

"Only you"

Tariq froze in place, looking at the girl blankly and muttering.

"And us!"

There was a loud response from behind Vivian.

Behind her stood a large group of people:
The leader is Morey in black robes, magic apprentices full of fighting spirit, summoned beasts of different shapes, guard captains with bandages on their shoulders, and mercenaries ready to go.

They are all fighting professionals who gathered spontaneously, and rushed over from Ximen under the leadership of Vivienne.

The gathered professionals are like the ray of light in the dark night, tearing apart the darkness before dawn.

"Boy, why are you crying like a bitch!
"If you're a man, stand up!"

"Dare to disturb my sleep, I will pull off their skins and wipe their butts!"

"May Pelor watch us."

"Let's go! Let those monster cubs see the power of human beings!"

"Roar!"

----

"Damn it, hurry up! Pile up obstacles at the city gate, and don't let these beasts enter the city!"

Once the empty city gate is broken open, the guards at the gate will be unable to escape.

The captain of the guard discovered this situation and quickly ordered the soldiers to move the buildings, stones, and even carriages that could be dismantled around to the city gate, just to delay for a while.

Seeing that the damage to the city wall was getting worse, the captain of the guard frowned tightly, and he glanced at the city wall.

The guards were still firing, but the continuous full draw of their bows had sent their arms into hyperemia.

If this continues, their arms may be disabled.

The magic apprentices and teachers in the back also exhausted their magic power, sitting in place meditating and recovering.

The crossbow arrows and rockfall ammunition were also exhausted.

Only the mayor was still maintaining the [Second Ring Magic Dust Devil].

The damage of this magic is very low, but it can make the monsters in a large area stand unstable and cannot hit the city wall.

But the mayor's ears and nostrils were already bleeding black.

His magic reserve is not that exaggerated, and now he is completely squeezing the last bit of potential in his body.

"you"

The captain of the guard seemed to want to say something to him, but the mayor stopped him with his eyes.

"It's not the last moment yet, we still have reinforcements yet to arrive!"

"Reinforcement?"

"By the way, Tariq! He's going to gather those passing professionals."

"Hurry up, Tariq, if you don't come again"

The entire city wall is being struck, but the most dangerous place is still the city gate.

Over there is the iron-eating elephant's attack range, and the tattered city gate that was hit is already in a precarious state.

The captain of the guard withdrew from the command position, and he asked a usually steady squad leader to act as a temporary command.

He jumped directly from the city wall and landed in a perfect posture.

Falling himself and the ground from a height of 8 meters did not suffer any damage at all, which shows that his body control has reached a certain level.

The others already knew their mission, and he was about to start fighting next.

His battlefield is not on the walls.

"Chong!"

Pulling out the knight's long sword that he hadn't wielded for more than ten years, the guard captain faced the city gate and walked to the front of the guards.

He is the strongest in this city, a swordsman of the golden rank!
The golden rank can already use the fighting spirit to swing the weapon to launch long-range attacks.

However, using sword energy to attack is too wasteful of battle energy, and only close combat can maximize his strength.

The city gate kept shaking, and there was a harsh creaking sound from the bearing, as if it was about to be knocked open in the next second.

"I will lead the charge!"

The captain of the guard chanted slogans, cheering up the guards around him, and also cheering himself up.

"Alia, please protect me."

He silently recited his lover's name in his heart.

The breath of monsters is getting closer, and their unique stench fills everyone's nostrils.

"Our reinforcements are here! It's Tariq!"

The soldiers on the scout upstairs suddenly shouted excitedly.

Hearing this news, the captain of the guard turned his head and looked back happily.

A series of figures appeared from the corner of the street in the distance, running towards the city gate, and the leader was his brother-in-law: the guard Tariq.

"boom!"

At the same time as Tariq came, there was also a huge voice.

"boom!!!"

Hold on to the city gate for nearly an hour
broken!

In the next second, the beasts rushed towards the crowd in front of them like a tide.
