Chapter 240: Capturing the City Gate
Whoosh!
A dark green Melf's Acid Arrow flew towards the Troll Centurion who had nowhere to dodge in mid-air.
Sensing the immense danger in this attack, he tried his best to twist his head, attempting to avoid the lethal strike.
However!
He couldn't move!
An invisible force enveloped him, restraining him in mid-air.
Even the slightest movement to turn his head was impossible.
He could only stare in terror at the approaching Acid Arrow, feeling his face hit by a powerful liquid mass.
A destructive scorching sensation surged over him; the Troll Centurion's consciousness went bck as half his brain was burned away.
"Ding! You have killed a Troll Centurion and gained 400 Fate Points."
Matthew, who succeeded with one strike, couldn't help but reveal a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
A combination of a 2nd-level Lesser Hold Person spell and a 2nd-level Melf's Acid Arrow is the perfect combo against trolls!
Matthew's intelligence attribute has surpassed 30 points; even for low-level spells, the success rate of his checks is extremely high.
Even the physique of a Troll Centurion approaching high-level trolls cannot save or resist.
Therefore, it was killed without any ability to resist.
Of course, this is also reted to the retively high level of the two skills.
Matthew also understands that what truly determines the effect and destructive power of spells depends on the intelligence attribute.
Intelligence is the foundation.
Feats are for expanding and enhancing.
Skills are the tools to unleash this potential.
Multi-faceted coordination results in the overall destructive power of spells.
The st remaining Troll Centurion retreated frantically in fear.
An indescribable immense pressure drove it to shout loudly, causing nearby trolls to gather as its shields, attempting to escape Yaya's pursuit.
"It's time."
"Hold them off!"
Matthew whispered two sentences into Yaya's ear.
Yaya was very clever; instead of chasing to kill the Centurion, it allowed him to gather more troll soldiers.
Yaya chased him like a cat pying with a mouse, killing as many nearby troll soldiers as possible.
The trolls on the city wall surrounded Yaya, trapping it tightly.
However, their weapons were too shabby to pose any significant threat to Yaya's sturdy scales.
The "cng cng" collisions only sparked small bits of fire.
The trolls couldn't break through the defense at all!
Over the past month or so, Matthew had not only taught Yaya the advanced feat "Camoufge."
Whether it's Advanced Strength or Thick Skin, Yaya learned them very easily thanks to its astonishing talent and attributes.
Of course, Matthew also expended a considerable amount of Fate Points for this.
Today, the formidable destructive power dispyed by Yaya undoubtedly proved that his approach was correct!
Seeing more and more trolls surrounding them, Matthew no longer held back and began casting Fireball spells one after another around him.
The sound of "boom" explosions was incessant.
Yaya's rampage attracted nearly 80% of the troll soldiers' attention.
An idea fshed in Matthew's mind, and he flung a Fireball spell at the city gate!
Boom!
A violent explosion, accompanied by rolling fmes, burst through the cracks.
Extremely intense shouts and battle cries immediately surrounded from outside.
Beelzebub, like a tank and aided by various spells, charged fiercely at the heavy steel gate.
Just as he smmed into the gate, the once sturdy steel became decayed and rusty, as if it had undergone countless years.
His gleaming twin axes hacked fiercely at the decayed gate, forcibly opening a big hole.
Under the bombardment of Fireball spells, the heavily wounded defending soldiers were instantly sin by Beelzebub as he charged through them.
More than ten troll soldiers surrounded him.
Beelzebub did not stop and crashed straight into them.
With a twist of his wrist, he swung a deadly arc; his powerful axe cleaved two trolls in half.
The other troll soldiers charged fearlessly, using their bodies to halt Beelzebub's momentum.
"Buzz...!"
A red whirlwind charged out.
Mercilessly piercing into the side of the trolls.
The gleaming sword, like a stream of light, sshed open a troll soldier's chest with one strike and severed its spine with another.
The spattering blood dyed Elio's aura red.
Beautiful blood-red patterns condensed on her arms and cheeks.
Blood light surged!
Sword light intensified!
Whoosh!
Elio's already agile body accelerated once more, streaking a deadly red glow as she fshed past the side of the troll soldiers.
Their knees cracked with a "snap," and they colpsed crookedly to the side.
Before they could recover, Beelzebub, exerting his strength again, activated a power burst.
His two axes crossed forward, cutting down the stumbling trolls.
Beelzebub, bathed in blood light, appeared even more fierce, complementing Elio behind him.
Under the blessing of "Endless Rage," Beelzebub's movements became more violent. With wide, sweeping sshes and 25 points of extraordinary strength, he easily crushed the trolls surrounding him.
Charging left and right, he had no match among the enemies.
Elio centered around Beelzebub, filling in the gaps, eliminating the trolls who escaped his twin axes.
The two of them firmly held the city gate, sughtering all the charging trolls!
The trolls besieging Yaya saw that they had captured the gate and began to surround this area.
But it was too te!
Clop! Clop! Clop!
The crisp sound of hoofbeats came from afar.
Fully armored heavy cavalry charged like a torrent of steel, passing over Beelzebub and Elio, plunging into the troll soldiers.
Snap!
The formation of the troll soldiers was instantly torn in half.
Ange discarded her spear and drew her sword, cutting down the chaotic troll soldiers.
Beelzebub and Elio also took the opportunity to charge out, clearing the soldiers around the city gate and starting to attack the city walls.
While they were holding back the troll soldiers, 500 lightly armed soldiers had rushed to the city gate.
They formed neat phanxes, holding crossbows, aiming at the trolls who were attempting to retake the gate, and pulled the triggers without hesitation.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A dense rain of arrows enveloped the trolls.
Over a hundred troll soldiers fell instantly.
Even though most trolls weren't killed by the bolts, the highly destructive crossbow bolts still caused them considerable harm.
The remaining dozens of troll soldiers fled backward in panic.
More and more soldiers poured in through the city gate.
They moved up to support Beelzebub and Elio, preparing to cooperate with them to take the city walls.
Yaya seized the opportunity, withstanding the attacks of the troll soldiers, and joined up with Beelzebub and the others.
The charges and counterattacks of the troll soldiers on the city walls were all blocked by Yaya, Beelzebub, and Elio.
The soldiers' staggered shooting suppressed the trolls' attempts to counterattack, causing them continuous casualties.
The troll soldiers hit by arrows soon felt something strange.
Their wounded areas gradually became numb, and their strength rapidly waned.
The troll soldiers were leaderless and caught off guard.
Their weapons and equipment were inferior, and they didn't even have a numerical advantage.
They became increasingly fearful, watching helplessly as the Bay Territory captured the gate and began sweeping the walls.
The Bay Territory's well-coordinated offense instantly penetrated the castle's defenses.
Just as the troll soldiers were about to colpse, a surge of violent, twisted magical fluctuations appeared in the distance!
A familiar red glow spread in all directions, enveloping the gathering trolls.
Fifth-level Spell—Bloodlust!
FALCON-N
