Lords of the Heavens

Chapter 393 The Battle for the City
"Seize the city!"

The moment the horrific explosion subsided, Zhao Xuanxuan, Grant, Javier, and Santiago roared in unison!

Li Wei hadn't explained any specific tactics to them beforehand; he simply said to adapt to the situation.

In fact, even Li Wei herself hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.

He had already pulled off something similar a few months ago, shooting down a half-goat super-spellcaster. He figured that whether it was the Neanderthals or the Ice Duke, they should all learn a lesson.

Of course, they may have already learned their lesson. With at least 500 level 4 heavy-armored ability users plus 500 level 3 ability users guarding the city, with 20 giant crossbows on the city wall and a Neanderthal crossbowman watching over them, who the hell could approach silently?

Who the hell would have thought that Li Wei would be so cunning, secretly changing his armor halfway through the journey, and then pulling this stunt!
At this moment, after seeing hundreds of meters of the city wall collapse, the goal of capturing the city, which was something they had never dared to think about before, instantly became the most important goal!
"Stop them!"

One of the centaur soldiers roared, while arrows rained down like locusts.

Some of the centaur cavalry abandoned their attack and began charging towards the collapsed city wall.

The 300-strong ambush force to the west also began a full-speed sprint, all of them rushing towards the collapsed city wall with all their might, but they were a bit slow because the distance was too far.

At this moment, Li Wei had already summoned his second four-star warhorse. He rode through the thick smoke, the still-burning flames, and some ability users who hadn't been killed or burned, and plunged into the blast.

He didn't even glance at the fallen six-star universal gold card!

No more!
Capture the city!

This was the only thought in his mind at that moment.

The speed of the four-star warhorse was increased to the extreme, like a black lightning bolt.

"Stop him! Whoever kills Li Wei will be rewarded with an earldom!"

Someone roared hoarsely from under the ruins of the city wall. The superhuman soldiers, who had regained their senses, began to intercept them. Some superhumans were still not killed by the explosion or burned.

There were also some reserve troops on the city wall!

They were very elite, so they were only stunned for a few seconds before they realized what was happening.

"Shhhhhh!"

More than a dozen crossbow bolts came flying at him, but Li Wei didn't even look at them. He casually swung his five-star enchanted spear and knocked them all away.

"Roar!"

A heavily armored half-pigman, about two meters tall, roared and spitting blood as he charged headfirst at Li Weiyi.

But he wasn't fast enough. Li Wei held the gun in one hand, and the two-and-a-half-meter-long gun pierced through in an instant, smashing his head into a watermelon!
At the same time, the galloping warhorse leaped more than four meters high, soaring over a huge concrete block.

"Crack! Crack!"

Two crisp striking sounds rang out. Two lightly armored half-cat people, one on the left and one on the right, who thought they were very fast and were very confident, tried to take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but Li Wei's speed was simply beyond their reach.

The enchanted spear in his hand was so powerful that it was almost invisible before it struck them, sending them flying dozens of meters away and breaking their spines.

Even the life core inside his body was forcibly shattered!
There's no way around it. Li Wei's current level is 53 points of strength, 65 points of agility, plus +8 perception. This 20-kilogram steel enchanted spear is just a toy to him.

The terrain is complex, the situation is chaotic, and the enemy outnumbers us.

nonexistent.

Under the influence of Perception +8, the entire battlefield becomes transparent.

The most effective way to deal with someone like him is to unleash a barrage of ranged attacks, using heavy equipment to focus fire and shut down all dodging and maneuvering opportunities.

But unfortunately.

The explosion just now caused the magic structure of the magic mine to vibrate, and the collapse of the city wall also destroyed most of the giant crossbows. There are still many surviving superhumans, but they are unable to organize themselves. What can they use to defend themselves?
In the blink of an eye, Li Wei had single-handedly sent more than a dozen superhumans who tried to intercept him flying and blasted them to pieces, while also blocking dozens of crossbow bolts. He then successfully rushed into the city, which was also a disaster area. A huge shockwave swept across the area, leaving it in ruins, and the magic mine was the first to be hit.

One of the Neanderthal spellcasters was working hard to repair the damage, while another Neanderthal had already organized a group of superhuman soldiers in the past ten seconds. When they saw Li Wei charging over, they were filled with hatred as if they were enemies meeting!
With a roar, it charged forward; this time, it was a true match.

Even Li Wei didn't dare to be careless. He lightly nudged the horse's belly, and the warhorse immediately adjusted its direction as if by telepathy, brushing past the nun. The moment the opponent's attack missed, Li Wei leaned back and slammed his enchanted spear heavily into the nun's back.

That's how big the difference is between having a mount and not having one.

The difference between running at full speed and not running at full speed is just as significant!
"Oh!"

The man was knocked back and flew more than twenty meters. A flash of magical light appeared around him, indicating that he was not injured at all.

But it didn't matter, because the next second, Li Wei straightened his body, and the spear in his hand struck like a hurricane, swinging, piercing, and thrusting, so fast that no afterimage could be seen. In an instant, he killed eight ability users, directly cutting a path and heading straight for the Neanderthal spellcaster who was adjusting and repairing the magic mine.

"*&……%%……"

Just as the spear was about to pierce through the opponent's body, the nun caster suddenly turned around and shouted out a series of strange and obscure syllables. Li Wei had the illusion that time had stopped for a moment, and it was as if a hundred thunderbolts were exploding in his ears.

It is a mental attack, a unique attack method used by spellcasters.

Moreover, this level is very high, twice as high as the mental attack of my second aunt.

in an instant,
His warhorse neighed, its massive head spurting blood, and it immediately stumbled and fell to the ground, its fate unknown.

Li Wei was thrown off and fell to the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, in excruciating pain!
The good news is that all other superhumans within a 20-meter radius were also blown to the head.

After chanting this strange incantation, the old nun immediately drew a short sword, leaped up, and was about to stab Li Wei in the heart.

Swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation!
Li Wei wasn't even wearing noble crest armor at this moment. If he were stabbed through the heart, he would at least be seriously injured and on the verge of death!

But in that life-or-death moment, Li Wei regained consciousness.

Yes, the best way to deal with such a difficult and powerful attack as mental shock is to withstand it with mental strength.

Unfortunately, Li Wei had a lot of mental energy. Although he had been eating mushroom and meat soup on and off for the past year, his second aunt often gave him special meals, so he recently gained 2 extra points of mental energy, bringing his total to 32 points.

Therefore, although the mental impact of the nun's spellcaster was powerful, it only consumed 28 points of his mental strength in an instant, and he recovered in less than a second.

At that moment, Li Wei swiftly extended his left hand, grabbing the blade of the short sword and stopping the opponent's thrust.

The next second, Li Wei thrust his full strength in the opposite direction, and with a snap, the nun's arm broke. He must have had 40 points of strength, but it was still not enough.

In an instant, the hilt of the short sword struck his throat, but at that very moment, a bright, water-like ripple flashed by, blocking the fatal blow.

That's normal. How could a high-level spellcaster not have a magic crest for defense and certain death?
But Li Wei was not alarmed. In fact, he had expected this long ago. So what if there was a magic emblem to prevent certain death? Because at this moment, he had already drawn his four-star enchanted dagger and stabbed the Niko caster's heart twelve times in an instant.

They broke his magic insignia directly and then killed him instantly!

Even someone as strong as Li Wei would be seriously injured and on the verge of death if stabbed in the heart, let alone him?
At the same moment, Li Wei dodged to the side, leaping back several meters in a single bound. A flash of light, and his left leg was nearly severed, only to be met by another Negro cross-border fighter wielding a sword and shield, charging at him. His expression turned incredibly ferocious, like a demon. A crimson surge of energy erupted around him.

Is this burning blood?

And it grants at least +6 Blood Burn!

A little troublesome.

Li Wei decisively sheathed his dagger, took out his enchanted greatsword, and exchanged three blows with the nun who had crossed the border.

After three moves, Li Wei felt as if the bones in both of his wrists were about to shatter.

With the boost from his Blood Burning talent, his opponent's strength was at least twenty points higher than his.

But most importantly, his attacks possess a strange resonance, just like Zhao Xuanxuan's hammer blows. As long as you dare to confront him head-on, the aftershocks of that power can penetrate deep into your bones, spreading and impacting continuously, forming a continuous series of resonance points.

Nima!

Li Wei was startled and broke out in a cold sweat. The key issue was that his mental energy was greatly depleted at this moment, and his advantage of +8 perception was also diminished.

Without hesitation, Li Wei turned and ran. He needed time for the aftershocks of that power in his bones to dissipate.

Fortunately, his advantage in this area is self-evident.

He dodged and leaped repeatedly, avoiding a barrage of blades from the Niren cross-border fighter. The next second, his toes touched the ground, and like a blur, he dodged several more charging superhuman soldiers, running over a hundred meters in one breath.

Even though the Nani cross-border traveler was in full-blooded mode, he couldn't catch up. The key was that this place was the ruins of a collapsed city wall. He wanted to ride a horse, but he didn't have Li Wei's ability to walk on flat ground.

After only two or three seconds of delay, Li Wei had already recovered.

Taking advantage of his pursuit, Li Wei leaped down from under a huge rock. In the instant when he could not find any foothold, he decisively counterattacked. He first launched a deadly throw with an enchanted spear, which accurately struck the opponent's shield. Although the opponent's shield was also an enchanted shield, it was still able to complete the shield-breaking ritual.

Most importantly, the Nani cross-border traveler was in mid-air and unable to gain any leverage. When he was thrown by this attack, his body inevitably fell backward.

Almost the instant he landed, a trap was activated, and huge steel enchanted serrations, like the jaws of a shark, snapped into his right leg.

A Samsung-level enchanted trap!
In such complex terrain with obstructed visibility, it truly is Li Wei's chosen battlefield.

It only takes him a second to set up such a trap.

Of course, the trap still did not cause much harm to the Neanderthal cross-border traveler, but it had a huge impact on his movement in the short term.

Li Wei had already shouted loudly, wielding two enchanted greatswords, and charged forward at full speed, slashing down head-on!

Li Wei wouldn't have dared to do that just now; the nun's agility was equally extraordinary, and her blade flashed like a polished mirror.

But at this moment, he could only barely raise his shield to block.

Then Li Wei cleaved the enchanted shield in two with a single strike, causing his entire body to flicker with magical energy.

Wow, good equipment lets you be this carefree.

Unaffected, the Nizar countered with three consecutive slashes, forcing Li Wei to parry with all his might. In the blink of an eye, he was shaken so badly that his arms felt as if they were broken.

Damn it!
At that moment, a shadow of gloom crossed his mind. "Damn it!" he thought, and dodged to the side with lightning speed. At the same time, two thick crossbows flew past his body.

However, there were still two giant crossbows inside the city, and a large number of superhumans were pouring in from who-knows-where. They rushed onto the ruins and the city walls, spontaneously organizing a defense.

Most of them are level two or even level three superhumans.

In other words, perhaps a few months ago, they were all ordinary people, survivors.

They now see Li Wei as an intruder.

This is normal.

"Strengthen defenses! Strengthen defenses!"

Many people were shouting, and the Ni people crossing the border were also shouting. The more they shouted, the more excited they became. They cut through the trap with their long swords and changed to holding swords with both hands. They chased after Li Wei with murderous intent!

day!
The worst part is that there are always reckless, fearless superhumans around Li Wei who rush towards him with screams of despair. If you don't kill them, they get in your way; if you do kill them, it delays things.

Li Wei could only dodge and pull to the limit, but the Negro cross-border fighter was like a tough nut to crack. With the help of those superhumans, no matter how Li Wei dodged, he could catch up. This guy was simply the king of urban warfare.

Worse still, dozens of centaur cavalrymen had already rushed to the site of the collapsed wall, a result of their previous position.

Zhao Xuanxuan's horses were fast, but the centaurs weren't slow either!

In just a few short minutes, about three hundred superhumans had gathered at the breach in the city wall, and the situation was deteriorating.

"mark!"

But at this moment, Li Wei suddenly sneered and roared.

It's time to use his trump card and ultimate move.

You don't really think I have no trump cards up my sleeve, do you?
At this moment, even though Zhao Xuanxuan and the others were still a kilometer away and engaged in fierce fighting with the centaur cavalry.

At that moment, the Templar Knight Mark seemed to hear the call of the gods!

He let out a roar, and his whole body was enveloped in a bright divine light.

Before, he was unremarkable and looked no different from other heavy cavalrymen.

But at this moment, his warhorse, his armor and weapons, and his entire being, shone like the sun.

This is the Templar Knight's strongest form.

"By the gods above! Light will prevail!"

He uttered such a shout, then charged out on horseback, smashing the head of the Neanderthal cross-border traveler who was blocking Zhao Xuanxuan's path and fighting with Zhao Xuanxuan, Benjamin, Javier, and others with a single blow at a speed of nearly 100 kilometers per hour.

The next moment, he seemed to transform into an invincible war god on land, killing twenty-seven centaur cavalrymen in one go, carving a bloody path through them, and then charging forward at the forefront.

Dozens of heavily armored half-pig and half-bull howled and formed a battle formation to fight back, but he managed to smash a huge gash in them with his warhorse. Although the impact caused his divine light to dim by half, the effect was still remarkable.

All the half-pig and half-cattle people who were knocked away underwent some incredible change. Their power seemed to be waning, and they could no longer maintain their half-pig and half-cattle appearance, beginning to change into normal people.

Naturally, even our thinking and cognition have changed.
