Full health is the kill threshold, no matter if you're a god or a demon!

To stop the bee-men's advance, Manko ordered the hurling of incendiary shells, turning the area outside the city into a sea of ​​fire. At the same time, the troll shamans united and unleashed their war spells: Earthquake, Swamp, and Thorns, summoning various creatures to join the battle.

The bee-men, of course, were not to be outdone and used all sorts of methods.

The trolls on the city walls breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the bee-man army being halted and many of their siege weapons being destroyed.

"Well played! Keep it up!"

"Be careful not to get near those towers!"

"Focus fire! Focus fire on that team pushing the tower!"

Manco breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As long as the enemies can be kept out, the shield can hold. Just a little longer, and the portal will...

But before that thought could even finish, Arachne's second attack came.

The light from the Eight-Phase Annihilation Array was ten times more intense than before.

This time, it wasn't one beam of light, but eight.

Eight pure white energy beams shot out simultaneously from the eight orbs of the magic array, each precisely targeting the weak points on the shield where energy ripples had already appeared.

Eight muffled, deafening thuds almost merged into one—

boom!!!!!!!

The pale gold shield flickered wildly, and the eight nodes that were hit exploded instantly. Cracks on the surface of the shield spread wildly like a spider web, and this time they were even more difficult to repair!

"Node damage rate 37%! Self-repair efficiency down to only 45%!" The shaman's voice, responsible for monitoring the protective array, had completely changed. "We can't hold on any longer! We really can't hold on any longer!"

Manco clenched his teeth, and blood seeped from his gums, tasting of blood.

He stared intently at the city square—the light from the portal had only just stabilized to a barely usable level.

not enough.

Not enough time!

He grabbed his adjutant by the collar, his eyes bloodshot. "Go to the shop and buy five 'Thunderbolt Beasts'! Now! Immediately!!"

The adjutant's face turned deathly pale: "Your Majesty... one head costs four million gold coins, five heads would be twenty million, our funds..."

"Buy—!!!!!" Manco nearly snapped his neck. "Money can be stolen again! But if the city falls, everything is lost! Buy it now!!!"

The adjutant scrambled down the city wall.

Moments later, five giant beams of light, each over twenty meters in diameter, shot into the sky from within the city.

From within the pillar of light came a roar that shook the heavens and the earth—a roar carrying immense pressure that terrified even the trolls who heard it.

The beam of light dissipated.

Five enormous beasts shattered the ground and appeared before everyone's eyes.

They resemble large felines, measuring fifteen meters in length and eight meters in shoulder height, their entire bodies covered in thick, bluish-white fur. They possess a pair of enormous wings on their backs, with a wingspan exceeding twenty-five meters, each flap generating a howling gale. On their foreheads, a spiraling horn flashes with blinding arcs of electricity.

Five level 299 epic behemoths – Thunder Halberd Beasts.

They simultaneously roared to the sky, the sound waves shaking the city walls.

Then, it unfurled its wings and soared into the sky!

Its enormous body moved with the agility of a falcon in the air, the wind-blown wings creating five small tornadoes, lightning gathering on its horn, and bluish-white wind blades wrapped around its claws.

Five giant beasts lunged at Arachne from five directions.

In that instant, all the trolls held their breath.

This is their trump card—five high-level war beasts worth ten to twenty million gold coins, each capable of taking on an entire army single-handedly.

But Arachne ignored the five ferocious beasts charging towards her and simply said:

"The third strike."

All the energy on the magic circle converged, and the eight arcane orbs merged into one, this time actually shooting out a black beam of light!

The black light vanished in an instant, but a hole quickly burned into the city's protective shield, slowly growing larger and larger.

Buzzing--! ! !

The entire protective shield began to hum.

"No...no..." Manco gritted his teeth. "Degan, think of something!!"

"Your Majesty...no, this thing can interfere with the repair process!"

"Damn it, what on earth is that Spider-Man?"

Arachne then looked at the five tigers that were pouncing on her. She changed her attack direction, and the light sphere split into eight again. After quickly changing its position, the eight light spheres began to frantically shoot rays at the five tigers!

laugh!laugh!laugh!

The tiger's body was struck by the rays, and a painful, burning sound immediately emanated from its muscles.

In fact, given Arachne's abilities, she could break through the city's protective barrier on her own, given enough time.

But that refers to the situation where there is no interference. Right now, the other side has sent five level 299 NPCs to deal with us.

Arachne wasn't afraid. She was an eternal being. Even if she couldn't kill the five tigers, she wouldn't be killed by them either.

However, this means they can no longer attack the city's protective shield.

Upon seeing his opponent, Liu Nian immediately charged forward with unstoppable force!

With a thud, a large tiger was sent flying backward by his impact.

Liu Nian wanted to continue the attack, but Arachne said, "Master, leave these beasts to me. You can lead the bee people to continue the siege. My three attacks just now were specifically aimed at their rune recovery; the protective shield should be beyond repair now!"

Liu Nian immediately understood what she meant, which meant that from now on the protective shield could only be reduced, and could not be repaired or recharged!

Then he thought that it wouldn't matter if Arachne died; she was currently his pet, and could be resurrected if she died.

With that in mind, Liu Nian no longer hesitated and took out the "Mirror" 3000 self-replicating robot.

Although this thing can only exist for 10 seconds, the damage it can cause in those 10 seconds is astonishing!

However, this thing is a copy of Liu Nian's current state. Since the cooldown of the Divine Dragon form is as long as 24 hours, it cannot be used now, so this copy naturally cannot transform.

"Freya, I'll charge into the city first. You lead the men and continue the attack! Slaughter all the trolls in the city and blast the entire city to smithereens!!"

"Freya received!"

Liu Nian didn't know if Manco had planted bombs under the city, and he didn't care anymore. Anyway, even if you don't bomb it, I'll raze this wretched place to the ground!

It's extremely inconvenient that a small troll race like ours has three main cities! I... cough cough, well, I'll just leave you one city, the eastern one!

Freya accepted the order and continued to have the bees advance.

Liu Nian then sent his clone into the clone's body, starting with a Heavenly Punishment Leap!

咻~~~

A parabola glides towards the city.

roar--!!!

Before the clone even landed, it unleashed Dragon Seal of Ten Thousand Frontiers in mid-air.

The figure of the Frost Dragon descended as the replica fell, spewing its icy breath at the cracked shield below.

Manco and the defenders were instantly drawn to the sudden appearance of the "second Liu Nian" and the ice dragon. They were terrified, and their remaining shields barely withstood the onslaught of the dragon's breath and the stomping of the clones on the shield's surface, emitting a dull groan.

At that moment, Liu Nian's true form also leaped into the air without hesitation.

The second parabola streaked across the sky above the battlefield.

The second frost dragon, under the desperate gaze of countless trolls, unleashed its breath on the same weak point of the shield.

The double dragon breath, combined with the combined impact of two of Liu Nian's Heavenly Punishment Leaps, struck the same point on the shield simultaneously!

*Snap—Bang!*
