This situation was definitely not normal. In the battle with the "Subsidiary Bodies", the team was attacked because they happened to run into their active area. The "Subsidiary Bodies" that were further away did not take the initiative to attack them at all. Therefore, such a large-scale siege immediately caused everyone to be dumbfounded.
Duke and the others, who were in a hurry to respond to the battle, did not expect that these "Children", who were charging at them aggressively, did not seem to see them at all. They pounced straight at Miranda's position, and the soldiers who could not dodge in time were directly knocked into the air. Even when the Bindu cavalry swung their swords and cut off their tentacles, they did not turn around to counterattack!
"Help … Help!"
Only then did Miranda realize that all eight "Subsidiary Bodies" were actually coming for her. She held the necklace in her hand and desperately cast mental attacks. Beside her, Jill continuously threw out several potions. Evelyn used all her strength to construct a magic circle, but the three of them and the dozen guards guarding beside them could not stop the "Subsidiary Bodies" from all directions. Risking the danger of being corroded by the potions and burned by the magic circle, one of the "Subsidiary Bodies" that broke through the defense line immediately swung its tentacle at Miranda, whipping her to the ground.
Then, another "Subsidiary Body" stretched out its tentacle and wrapped around Miranda. With a twist, it directly lifted her up!
"Help me! Help … Ah — "
Miranda's cries turned into shrill screams of pain. Several "Child Bodies" even ignored the guards and knights beside them and actually began to fight over her on the spot. Seven or eight tentacles all wrapped around Miranda's body, the tremendous force directly crushing her ribs and rupturing her internal organs. No matter how hard the soldiers attacked, they couldn't stop Miranda. Evelyn and Jill watched as Miranda spat out a mouthful of blood and stopped breathing. They were so shocked that their minds went blank.
Why did this happen?
In the end, Miranda's body was snatched by one of the "Subsidiary Bodies". Like storing a Magic crystal, it opened its tentacles at the bottom of its body and "swallowed" the entire body. Then, it turned around and left into the distance. The remaining "Subsidiary Bodies" turned around and pounced at Evelyn and Jill!
"Quick, quick, stop them!"
Evelyn's voice was trembling when she said this. She had a hunch that these monsters' target was the few chiefs!
But with such a close distance, even if the Bindu Kingdom's knights came to help, they could not stop these monsters' tentacles. The soldiers in front of Evelyn and Jill were either knocked away or pushed back. The corrosive potions that Jill threw out corroded at least three "Subsidiary Bodies" and made them roll on the ground. However, the monster that broke through Evelyn's magic circle suddenly stretched out its tentacles and wrapped around her wrist!
The remaining potions were knocked over and splashed on the monster's tentacles. However, these monsters endured the pain and forced their way to Jill. Then, they wrapped their tentacles around her neck several times and immediately broke her neck with a "Body" …
Evelyn's struggling body suddenly drooped down. She was so frightened by this horrifying scene that she could barely stand on her feet. At this moment, the guards around her were either injured or dead. However, the remaining four "Subsidiary Bodies" completely ignored the Bindu Kingdom's knights who were trying to rescue her and continued to surround her. The next moment, the magic circle shield was completely shattered. Evelyn only felt that her feet and hands were wrapped by the tentacles. Then, she felt dizzy and her whole body was suspended in the air due to the pulling force from different directions!
"Ah!"
In the midst of the painful cry, the tearing force of the "Subsidiary Bodies" dislocated her left arm on the spot. Evelyn felt that her body was likely to be torn into pieces by these monsters. However, the only thing she could do now was to beg for a quick death …
"Crack!"
Evelyn's right calf was twisted into a fried dough twist with a strange crisp sound. She even saw her toes pointing towards the original position of her heel while she struggled. Just when she thought she was going to die, she suddenly heard a series of dense hoofbeats …
"Get out of the way!"
Someone suddenly shouted. Following that, a series of explosions caused Evelyn's ears to go deaf for a short period of time. In her vision, the white light engulfed those tentacles. The splattering blood stung her cheeks and her mouth was instantly filled with a pungent smell.
"Plop!"
After her body landed on the ground, the intense pain from her limbs made Evelyn open her mouth wide. However, she could only keep gasping for air and couldn't even scream …
However, this situation did not last for more than a few seconds. A golden light descended from the sky and the pain in her body instantly dissipated by a lot. Then, she realized that she quickly regained the feeling in her limbs. Even her twisted and shattered calf was magically straightened.
Evelyn widened her eyes and tried to lock her gaze on the tall knight in silver armor in front of her. However, she realized that the one who was talking to Little Khan Duke was … David who stood at the entrance of the hotel next door as a guard every day!
"Y-You guys?"
Looking around blankly, Evelyn realized that the ground around her was filled with the fragments of the 'Subsidiary Body'. Not even a complete corpse could be found!
When she focused her gaze forward again, she saw Roddy who was charging towards her with the 'Fire Arrow'. At the same time, she also noticed Doris who was bound by magic and lying on the back of the driver's seat.
"Doris?! What … happened to you? " She wanted to question Roddy, but when she saw his cold gaze, she could not help but shiver.
"It's safest to run to the Magic Tower. I have a way for the Parliament to deal with that guy in the distance!" Rody pointed in the direction of the North Gate and said, "Even if you run there, you will still die. That place is full of these monsters!"
Rody obviously did not intend to rely on his dozens of men to fight alone. His words did not give Duke a choice. Instead, it was almost like an order. Based on Little Khan's usual temper, why would he listen to such words? But with the scene of Davian and the others using the 'Charged Lance' to instantly kill the four monsters, he couldn't bring himself to reject the offer.
"You'll live if you follow me! Do as you see fit! "
After saying that, Rody ordered the team to move forward. From the beginning to the end, he did not pay any attention to Evelyn. However, when the team walked past Evelyn, Merinsera used a spell to lift the Eiseka emissary up and threw her to the back of the 'Fire Crossbow', right next to Doris.
Doris only vaguely saw the scene of the battle but did not know what happened. No one would have thought that the two would meet in such a manner.
Evelyn actually had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but her head was buzzing and she had yet to react to what had just happened. Doris saw that Evelyn was covered in blood and tried to turn her head to ask, "Were you attacked just now? Where are Miranda and Jill? "
Evelyn, who was originally gloomy, burst into tears. Doris never thought that the shrewd chief would cry out loud. Her heart skipped a beat and she felt that something was wrong. When Evelyn told her that Miranda and Jill were killed by the monsters, Doris's mouth was wide open and she was completely dumbfounded.
Lying on the shaking carriage, Doris saw Evelyn's haggard and sorrowful face from crying. She suddenly remembered the series of questions Rody had asked her, as well as Rody's mutterings to himself, "Don't worry.
"You guys are digging your own graves … digging your own graves."
*****
Duke finally led the team to catch up to Roddy.
It was not only because he had figured it out, but more importantly, he saw Akasha, who was beside Roddy, casually pointing at himself and the injured soldiers of Eiseka. When the light shone, the injuries of the soldiers quickly healed and they regained their ability to fight and stood up again.
After the church was destroyed by Lassman, the "healing" divine spells had not appeared in the public's eyes for a long time. Moreover, Bindu was a country on horseback and could be considered as a barren land of magic. Therefore, they had never seen such magical skills before.
The inexplicable reverence in his heart and the fear of the howls of the monsters in the distance made Duke hesitate. When Davian and the others killed a few more nearby "Children", he finally made up his mind and led the team to catch up …
That was because Roddy had used his unintentional actions to prove that his team was truly "powerful".
The place where Miranda and the others died was not far from the Colomier Magic Tower. It did not take long for Roddy to reach the bottom of the tower. Houdini immediately rushed into the Magic Tower and sprinted in the direction of the command center.
Of course, as a magus with no status, Houdini was stopped not long after he entered. According to the rules of the Magic Tower, it was impossible for non-combatants to enter the core command center without saying a word. If he wanted to see Jeremy, he had to go through many levels of reporting and approval. Houdini, who was very familiar with this trick, had no time to wait for them to inform him. He immediately waved his hand and chased away the magic apprentices who tried to stop him with a spell. Then, he cast Lightening Spell and rushed upstairs.
His action naturally triggered the alarm mechanism in the Magic Tower. In the midst of all kinds of alarms, Houdini broke through three checkpoints in a row and finally stopped in the middle of the tower. It was a "small team of sorcerers" who stopped him here. At the same time, the defensive magic circle in the Magic Tower was not a joke. He could feel that the spells in several traps were ready.
"I want to see Chancellor Jeremy! I want to deliver an important message. The messenger of the Kingdom of Karen has a way to deal with the big guy outside! If we really want to kill it, we must do it now! "
"The Kingdom of Karen?"
The guard sorcerer who stopped Houdini knew who he was. He frowned and said, "When did you become the messenger of the Kingdom of Karen? And … Master Houdini, this is a time of war. What you have done now is enough to be punished by the law! "
"It doesn't matter. I just need you to deliver this message to Chancellor Jeremy! This is the only way! Trust me! "
Houdini's tone was very sincere. However, the man did not seem to believe him. The battle sorcerer raised his hand and stopped him from continuing. "Master Houdini, for the sake of your previous status as a councilor, it's not too late for you to leave now. Otherwise, I will arrest you according to the rules of the Magic Tower. "
"Arrest me is not a problem. I just need you to deliver this message. Otherwise, why do you think I rushed here? There is no time now! "
"Chancellor Jeremy and the highest level of the council have gone to the top of the tower. All the crises will be solved. So, Master Houdini, you don't have to worry about this. "
"Top of the tower" was a special code. The top of the Colomier Magic Tower was an area where magic circles were concentrated to deal with external enemies. If all the magisters went to the top of the tower, it meant that the council was ready to launch a powerful attack.
Even Houdini hesitated for a moment. There were more than 40 magisters in the council, including at least eight extremely powerful "seniors". Could they really defeat the monster?
As he was thinking, a violent vibration came from the bottom of his feet. Even Houdini, who was inside the tower, could feel the surrounding elements being stripped and condensed. He and the sorcerers in front of him turned their heads and looked out of the window.
At this moment, the outside of the Colomier Magic Tower was as bright as day.
The magisters at the top of the tower were chanting spells at the same time. There were a total of 29 magisters present, six of whom were powerful beings who had advanced to Level 50. At this moment, they each stood in a designated area. The dense waves of energy became more and more violent. As the six white-haired Archmages raised their wands at the same time, a fireball as bright as a miniature sun suddenly condensed above everyone's head.
The "Giant Flame Blast" was actually beyond the scope of a "Flame Blast" spell. It was similar in appearance to a "Flame Blast" spell, but in fact, it was a "giant bomb" made of energy. As the old man who used to fish by the sea pointed his wand forward, the orange fireball instantly began to accelerate, flying straight towards the giant monster that had already reached the shore!
This attack was much faster than the light ball cast by the Magic Tower. In the face of such an attack, the "parent" of the ancient sea monster used the same trick. It instantly raised a large number of tentacles in an attempt to block the attack. However, the old man who controlled the "Giant Flame Blast" had already anticipated this. He raised his wand with full concentration and suddenly directed the trajectory of the fireball in the distance to suddenly move upwards. Then, the tip of the wand pointed in the air, causing the fireball to suddenly split into ten parts in the air!
The tip of the wand pointed downwards, and the scattered fireballs without hesitation smashed towards the "head" of the "parent". The tentacles desperately tried to block the fireballs, but the fireballs were too fast. The tentacles that stretched out with all their might could only block three of the fireballs. The remaining seven exploded on the "head"!
