Versatile Mage: I was reborn as Mo Fan
Chapter 886. The Return of the Siren Army
The dusk was falling, and thick dark clouds pressed down like lead over the sky above the Magic City, completely obscuring the last ray of afterglow.
The waves, carrying the Siren's broken limbs, hit the broken seawall anchored in the shallows heavily, making a dull sound, as if the sea was mourning for this tragic naval battle.
The surviving mages of the first line of defense and the mages of the second line of defense were soaked, their clothes were stained with sweat and sea water, and they collapsed on the seawall in exhaustion like puppets with their strings cut.
The salty sea breeze blew in their faces, but it couldn't blow away the haze in their hearts.
Although the crisis was temporarily resolved, the Siren's hideous figure and sharp roar still echoed in everyone's mind like a nightmare, making it difficult for them to free themselves from fear.
Fortunately, Daxia made careful arrangements in advance.
Before the sirens launched their attack, the empire's top brass, in conjunction with the Magic Association and other forces, set up layers of defensive magic arrays in the waters of the Demon City.
These magic arrays were extremely complex to construct and required the consumption of massive amounts of rare magical resources, but they unleashed powerful force at critical moments and successfully annihilated tens of thousands of sirens.
However, the brutal battle proved that even though the magic circle had amazing destructive power, it still had little effect in preventing the sirens from breaking through the defense line.
Relying on their huge numbers, the sirens fearlessly attacked the protection of the magic circle. Batch after batch of sirens fell, but more followed, with no signs of retreating.
If the Black Snake had not arrived, these vicious sea monsters would have already broken through the second line of defense, and the Demon City would have been doomed.
Hua Zhanhong witnessed the entire battle and redefined the gap between humans and sirens in his mind.
This battle-hardened general now had a frown on his face and a serious expression.
He looked at the devastated seawall in front of him, the broken limbs and damaged magic equipment scattered all over the ground, and realized deeply that this war between humans and sirens was far more difficult than he had imagined.
"Chief, although the sirens have retreated, they have not gone far. According to the scouts' report, they seem to be gathering in the deep sea and may attack again." The adjutant hurried over with a hint of nervousness in his voice.
Hua Zhanhong nodded slightly, his eyes firm: "Pass the order, all personnel immediately enter emergency alert status. Let the mages recover their magic power as soon as possible, and the soldiers quickly repair the fortifications. Notify the logistics department to meditate and replenish magic power as soon as possible."
"Yes!" The adjutant beside him took the order and left.
Hua Zhanhong turned around and looked at the exhausted mages and soldiers, feeling distressed.
But he knew that he couldn't relax at this moment.
He took a deep breath and shouted, "Listen everyone, the Siren may come back at any time, so we must not let our guard down during this period."
Encouraged by Hua Zhanhong, the mages and soldiers stood up one after another, their fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes.
They acted quickly, some began to repair the defensive array, some carried weapons and ammunition, and some took care of their injured companions.
At this moment, a scarred figure flew over quickly.
The person who came was naturally the young mage Lin Yu. Although his face was exhausted, his eyes were firm.
"Chief, I have something to say."
Hua Zhanhong looked at Lin Yu and nodded: "Go ahead."
Lin Yu took a deep breath and said, "General, in the battle with the sirens, I found that they are not without weaknesses. Although they are numerous and fearless, their attack methods are relatively simple, and they are almost uncoordinated without a monarch."
Hua Zhanhong didn't find it strange after hearing this.
Leng Yuemou controls all the sea monster overlords and kings with its powerful mental power.
But it is naturally impossible for it to control all the sirens. Even if it has a little control, it is beyond its scope.
What it controls are only the authority of these king-level overlord-level sirens.
Those little demons are nothing more than brainwashed assassins.
Whenever a powerful siren monarch is killed, the combat effectiveness of these sirens will be lost instantly.
Lin Yu pondered for a moment, and then said: "I suggest that we form an elite team of mages, and our target will be those sea monster overlords and kings."
Hua Zhanhong nodded, and he was quite satisfied looking at Lin Yu in front of him. This was another outstanding young mage after Zhang Xiaohou, and he would also be a hope for Wei Fang's future.
"Go back and recuperate." Hua Zhanhong said.
"I'm fine"
"Go back and recuperate." Hua Zhanhong said again.
"Yes."
This was an order from his superior, so Lin Yu naturally did not dare to refuse.
At this moment, a large black shadow suddenly appeared on the sea in the distance.
"Oh no, the Siren is coming again!" someone exclaimed.
Hua Zhanhong immediately looked towards the sea.
I saw countless sirens rushing towards the sea of Demon City again like a black tide.
"Our scout mage!!!" someone suddenly asked in confusion.
"They may have already sacrificed themselves." Hua Zhanhong understood the situation in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"Everyone, pay attention and enter combat mode!" Hua Zhanhong then gave a loud order.
The mages quickly gathered around the seawall, and the elements began to boil.
At the same time, the defensive magic circle suddenly shone brightly, and powerful magic beams shot towards the group of sirens.
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
When the sirens approached the defensive formation, they suddenly dispersed and approached the seawall from different directions.
They were extremely fast and reached the edge of the magic circle in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, a group of huge sirens waved their thick tentacles, demon blades, and pincer-like claws and smashed towards the defensive magic circle.
Obviously, compared to the previous wave of sirens, this time they are undoubtedly more experienced!!
"boom!"
The defensive magic circle shook violently under the attack of the Siren, causing ripples.
But the business remains intact.
The mages saw this and used all their might to output destruction. Although the strength of the magic circle had been specially tested, a drop of water can wear away a stone. Naturally, they could not let the Siren get what she wanted!
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
"Boom boom boom!!!!"
After the bombing, the number of sirens killed and wounded was not very large. This time, they seemed to have learned from the last lesson and no longer charged blindly. Instead, they cooperated with each other and attacked alternately.
The defensive formation showed traces under the Siren's repeated attacks. Although it was fine at the moment, it would inevitably be broken.
"Pass the order down, have the mage team set off immediately, go deep behind enemy lines, and destroy the sirens' gathering point!" Hua Zhanhong ordered loudly.
"Yes!" The adjutant took the order and left.
Soon, a team of elite mages led by Jiang Yu quickly assembled and flew towards the rear of the sirens.
With their agility and powerful magic, they cleverly avoided the Siren's patrol and successfully arrived at the Siren's assembly point.
