[Third update, one more update.]
Thunder boomed in Salin's mind. The Thunder Dragon Spear on his arm seemed to be a part of his body. Six almost transparent icicles flew out. The lightning on the icicles no longer flowed. Like magic patterns, they solidified on the icicles.
This was all because the icicles were launched too quickly. They drew an arc in the air, passed through the gaps between the Magic Shooters, and shot into the rock wall behind them.
The six icicles stabbed into the rock. With a flash of blue light, six electric currents shot out and linked together. These six blue electric currents linked together, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a purple electric net.
The stone gods chasing from behind crashed into the electric net. They were cut into pieces by the hair-like purple currents and fell down. Only then did the Magic Shooters realize that Salin was covering their retreat. They were ashamed. They didn't know that if killing them could stop the enemy, Salin wouldn't mind.
After all, these Magic Shooters didn't want to be his followers. They hadn't completely integrated into the Metatlin Kingdom.
The beast was huge. Fortunately, the diameter of the cave was more than 30 meters, and there were Parasitic Puppets along the way. There were no obstacles. The six huge icicles kept releasing electric currents. Salin raised his power to the extreme for this attack. Lightning rule, energy balance rule, and fate rule that he'd just touched a little.
This electric net with a diameter of 30 meters lasted for a full minute. Then it gradually turned blue and disappeared. The six icicles were still emitting cold air. The speed of the stone gods that passed by was reduced by at least half.
In a minute, the beast had already run a few miles.
Sicar followed the magic marks left by Salin and found the exit of the statue, the huge ear. Salin thought that the area outside Daliang City was probably a graveyard. It wouldn't be a problem for the stone gods to run out. How to block the ear was a problem.
Salin came out of the ear and said to Sicar, "Go up and transport more magic fire bombs."
"What else?"
"I want a magic cannon!" Salin yelled and jumped off the beast. Gusin jumped down with Salin. He held the dragon slaying flag in his hand and was a little nervous.
The experience just now was extremely exciting. He had never experienced something like this in his decades of mercenary work. When the scene of hundreds of thousands of stone statues waking up came into view, Gu Xin finally understood what Salin had told him before.
What you've experienced before is nothing. If you want to improve, follow me. I guarantee that your horizons will be broadened a hundred times.
Salin did not lie to him. This time, his horizons had been broadened more than a hundred times. The short battle had given him an unimaginable breakthrough in his instincts. The human body was a wonderful structure. After reaching a certain level, if one did not encounter the corresponding pressure, it would be difficult to continue to increase their strength.
It was the same for mages. The danger of every advancement was also a test for themselves.
Salin glanced at the Magic Shooters, retracted the Gale Dragon, and summoned the twelve Orange Knights. The Great Mages stood behind the Magic Shooter. The Magic Shooter was a little embarrassed and shouted angrily, "What are you waiting for? Block this hole!"
It was easy to say, but it was very difficult to block the hole. Salin was comforted when he saw Sicar controlling the giant beast to fly to the top of the city wall. No matter what, Sicar made him feel at ease. Once again, he summoned twenty-four Elemental Stone Soldiers. Salin ordered them to put away their magic warhammers. Salin took out huge pieces of steel and handed them to the Elemental Stone Soldiers. They dug the soil and filled the hole.
Only the large Elemental Stone Soldiers could do this. The steel Salin took out was used to make the metal tower. The metal tower used to set up the magic net had to be deep underground and connected to the magic furnace. The steel was difficult to make. Each piece was more than a hundred meters long.
These hundred-meter-long steel pieces were used as shovels to dig the soil and fill the hole.
The Magicians finally had a job to do. They kept casting Petrify. After the mud in the cave was petrified, they blocked the entrance of the cave. More than twenty Elemental Stone Soldiers blocked the giant's ear hole more than ten meters deep. All the soil was petrified. Other than the twelve level-nine Magic Shooters, the rest of the mages were empty.
Salin released another twelve Gale Dragon to send the Great Mages and the exhausted warriors to the top of the city wall. Then, he distributed the magic cores to the twelve level-nine Magic Shooters so that they could recover their magic strings.
"Your Highness, we can't stop them!" The leading Magic Shooter had already acknowledged Salin. He changed his tone to a sincere reminder.
Salin also knew that the ten-meter-thick rock could not stop the petrified gods. The petrified soil was not strong and was more fragile than natural rock. For the level-eight and level-nine powerhouses, digging these rocks was only a matter of time.
"If we don't block it, can Great Liang City be defended?" Salin's expression was solemn. He had used his family badge and temporarily lost his strongest power. The Thunder Dragon Spear could recover quickly, but its attack power was not enough to seal the hole.
They could only rely on the magic cannons to block the hole. No matter how many creatures came out, one shot would kill more than half of them, right?
"I will build a temporary magic tower and use the magic cannons to block it. Everyone will take turns to defend. I don't think those things will keep attacking. As long as … "
Salin did not continue. He also knew that if Jia Lin did not come out, the Domain of Oblivion would continue to operate and attack the targets within its range. As time passed, more and more petrified gods would awaken. There would be level-ten, level-eleven, and level-twelve petrified gods. At that time, there would be no other way but to escape from this area.
But how could the millions of soldiers in the city escape? Great Liang City had been raised to a height of five hundred meters. The city wall was vertical and steep. Ordinary soldiers could not leave!
The best way now was to build a ramp and retreat along the ramp while the powerful petrified gods did not appear. But when the ramp was built, it would probably be the time for the Inquisitor's army to arrive. The three chief judges were waiting outside. This army of hundreds of thousands still had to face the Inquisitor's attack.
Jia Lin had caused too much trouble this time. Let's hope she dies in there as soon as possible. Salin prayed in his heart.
Bang bang!
A strong sound of impact came from the giant's ear. The ten-meter-thick petrified soil could not stop the sound. The Magic Shooters' expressions changed. Salin calmly released twenty-four Desolate Puppets. They held their weapons and blocked the front.
Fortunately, he went to the Abyss King City. Without these puppets, Salin would have immediately given up on Great Liang City. There were too many petrified gods. Even if this place was narrow, it would not be able to stop them.
Salin's scalp tingled. Just how many petrified gods were there in the entire eggshell? The densely packed stone statues were far more concentrated than a normal army's formation. And this was only what his elemental eyes could see. Were there more advanced petrified gods in the graveyard? If there were, even if he built all eighty thousand Desolate Puppets, they would not be able to withstand the petrified gods' attack!
Shika quickly returned with twelve magic cannons. Salin calmly directed the elemental stone statues to install the cannons and petrified the ground. The Magic Shooters retreated and helped Salin build a temporary magic tower.
Because there was no way to gather elemental power here, without building a magic tower, the power of a Magician would be reduced by ninety percent.
Salin had ready-made materials and blueprints. The steel rocks were all cut. All he needed was for the Magicians to pile them up layer by layer. Then, a simple magic tower could be built.
This was a seven-story magic tower with two underground floors. It was a rather strange structure. No magic tower would build a basement. It was just that there was no way to use elemental power here. In order to stabilize it, the two-story magic tower was used as a foundation.
Salin had installed seven magic furnaces in the nine-story Magic Tower. These magic furnaces were originally used in warships. They were not huge. Without these magic furnaces, building a magic tower would be in vain.
The giant's ear was quickly pierced by the petrified gods. The Desolate Puppets guarding the cave rushed up and slashed left and right. While the magic tower was being built, the battle on the other side was extremely fierce. Although the loss of the Desolate Puppets was not fast, it was still shocking to Salin. From time to time, there would be petrified gods breaking through the Desolate Puppets' blockade and rushing to the magic tower.
Shika and Gusin dealt with them calmly. Salin kept replenishing the number of Desolate Puppets.
Not long after, a cannon was finally set up. Salin let the Magic Shooters get on the cannon, aimed at the giant's ear, and fired.
Hundreds of Petrified Gods were hit by the cannons, but the elemental energies in this space couldn't be manipulated, and the magic cannons' power was somewhat weakened. Most of the Petrified Gods were only lightly injured, and only a dozen at the front were blasted into smithereens.
Salin was a little anxious. If the rate of damage was like this, he would not be able to kill these petrified gods even if all his magic cannons were destroyed.
"Let's try the magic fire bombs." Salin had no choice. He summoned the Gale Dragon and let the elemental creatures throw the magic fire bombs with their hands. These magic fire bombs came with the metal flying devices. The metal flying devices were now parked in the palace. Shika collected thousands of magic fire bombs. He took them out one by one, afraid that they would explode in his hands.
By the time the twelve magic cannons were set up, Salin had lost more than a hundred Desolate Puppets. Fortunately, some of the puppets could be repaired this time. Their souls were not destroyed. Salin snatched them back one by one.
The Gale Dragon began to throw the magic fire bombs. The magic fire bombs landed accurately in the giant's ear holes, exploding and burning. These magic fire bombs were filled with kerosene, which was extremely viscous. They were also mixed with magic powder. Wherever the flames passed, they could only be extinguished with magic. Even water would be useless.
The magic cannons stopped firing. The entire cave was filled with heat. The petrified gods walked out of the flames. There was a hint of joy on their faces.
