On top of the city walls, the sound of the magic crystal cannons firing never stopped. Three kilometers away, the originally uneven ground was already filled with craters from the magic crystal cannons. The soldiers operating the magic crystal cannons were all very busy. The ones in charge of charging the magic crystal cannons were continuously taking out Class 1 and Class 2 magic cores from the metal boxes beside them and stuffing them into the magic crystal cannons.
Although Wake City was a small third grade city, due to its location near the Magical Beast Mountain Range, the amount of magic cores traded here was very large. After so many years of accumulation, Wake City's stockpile of magic cores had already reached a terrifying number. Even though the magic crystal cannons consumed a lot of magic cores, with Wake City's stockpile of magic cores, it was still enough to supply these magic crystal cannons for two to three days.
Jianchen and the two envoys stood on top of the city walls. Along with the other Saint Masters and City Lord Yun Li, they didn't participate in the battle. These Class 1 and Class 2 magic beasts were more than enough for the mercenaries below to deal with. Their true opponents were the Class 4 magic beasts behind the magic crystal cannons. If they wasted their energy on these low level magic beasts, then when the Class 4 magic beasts arrived, who would be able to defend against them?
On top of the city walls, Jianchen looked at the tens of thousands of magic beasts in the distance and sighed in his heart. He muttered, "There are really too many magic beasts."
Hearing this, Katata nodded in agreement and said, "Although this is the first time I've come to help Wake City fend off a wave of magic beasts, I also feel that this wave of magic beasts is a bit too large. Look at the back, there are still a few hundred magic beasts that haven't moved. Based on their auras, they should be Class 4 magic beasts!"
Hearing this, Jianchen looked over. Indeed, there were still a few hundred magic beasts quietly standing there. They didn't attack Wake City, but because they were too far away and Jianchen wasn't as strong as Katata, he couldn't sense the strength of these magic beasts.
Although a few hundred Class 4 magic beasts sounded unbelievable, Jianchen believed that Katata wouldn't make such a joke. He sighed heavily and said in a low voice, "A few hundred Class 4 magic beasts are equivalent to a few hundred Saint Masters. Although our Wake City has gathered a few hundred thousand people, the number of Saint Masters we have doesn't exceed three digits. There is no way we can fight against a few hundred Class 4 magic beasts."
"The only thing we can rely on now is the Magic Crystal Cannons. With the four Intermediate Magic Crystal Cannons in Wake City, they should be able to deal some damage to the Class 4 Magic Beasts. Looking at the Class 4 Magic Crystal Cannons, they should be about eight kilometers away from here. This distance is just right within the range of the cannons." Katata said with a serious expression. He immediately called Yun Li over and pointed at the magic beasts at the back, "Yun Li, aim all four intermediate level magic crystal cannons at that position. There are Class 4 magic beasts there. Only the intermediate level magic crystal cannons can deal damage to them. Every time we kill one, we will feel less pressure."
"Yes, Sir Envoy!" Katata's words were like an order from a superior to Cloud Force City Lord Yun Li. Without hesitation, Cloud Force City Lord Yun Li directed the 4 Intermediate Magic Crystal Cannons to fire at the group of Class 4 Magic Beasts at the rear.
"Peng!"
The four cannons fired at the same time. Four balls of unstable energy streaked across the sky like meteors and fiercely exploded in the middle of the group of Class 4 magic beasts.
Fortunately, the group of magic beasts was just at the edge of the range of the cannons. When the four powerful cannons exploded in the middle of the group of Class 4 magic beasts, a large amount of soil was immediately blasted away. The powerful energy waves turned into a violent energy storm that wreaked havoc in all directions. Immediately, many of the Class 4 magic beasts were thrown far away. They flew a full twenty meters before crashing to the ground. Among them, many of the Class 4 magic beasts had their flesh ripped apart. Fresh blood and a small amount of green liquid flowed out of their bodies, dying their bodies red. The place where the cannons landed was covered by a large cloud of dust. It was impossible to see the exact number of casualties.
"Roar!"
The group of Class 4 Magical Beasts all had ferocious glints in their eyes, especially those that were injured. Their eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty glint as they stared furiously in the direction of the city walls. Immediately, a few Class 4 Magical Beasts charged towards the city gates that were a few kilometers away.
"Mid-level Magic Crystal Cannons! Aim at that location and hit it hard! Don't stop!" Yun Li shouted from the top of the city wall. His face had never looked so serious before. He had heard from Katata that there were a terrifying number of Class 4 magic beasts. There were actually several hundred of them. Although Wake City had gathered many foreign mercenaries and some powerful mercenary groups, the number of Great Saint Masters here was far from three digits. With only a few dozen Great Saint Masters, there was no way they could fight against hundreds of Class 4 magic beasts. Right now, the only thing they could do was to use the cannons to kill as many of the Class 4 magic beasts as possible.
As the four magical crystal cannons shifted their targets, the Class 4 magical beasts at the very back that were originally unscathed suffered a great calamity. The power of the magical crystal cannons was enough to pose a fatal threat to them. With every round of fire, several Class 4 magical beasts would lose their lives, and countless would be injured.
A portion of the magic beasts immediately retreated far away, out of the range of the cannons. The rest of the magic beasts roared as they charged towards the city walls. They had clearly lost their minds after being hit by the Intermediate Magic Crystal Cannons. Covered in blood, they charged forward. Even if they met their own kind, they would directly knock them away. There was even a small number of them that opened their bloody mouths and bit their own kind that were blocking their path.
At this moment, the ferocity and savagery that had been suppressed by the appearance of the Class 5 magic beasts was completely unleashed.
The muffled sounds of the Mid Grade Magic Crystal Cannons reverberated in the sky. Energy shells shot out of the cannons, constantly exploding in the horde of magical beasts of the fourth rank, creating huge craters ten meters in diameter in the ground.
The Class 4 magic beasts were extremely fast. By the time the cannons finished firing their fifth round, they were only five hundred meters away from the city walls. However, the cannons had also caused them to suffer heavy losses along the way. Originally, there were more than two hundred of them, but now, there were less than one hundred and fifty of them. Moreover, most of them had suffered varying degrees of injuries. Even so, this still caused the expressions of the Saint Masters on the city walls to become incomparably solemn.
At this time, the Great Saint Masters on top of the city walls jumped down one after another and charged towards the hundred Class 4 Magical Beasts below. Only they could stop these Class 4 Magical Beasts. If these Magical Beasts were to charge into the midst of the Saint and Great Saint Mercenaries, it would be a disaster for the Saint and Great Saint Mercenaries.
In the blink of an eye, the dozens of Saint Masters on the city walls all joined the battle. At this moment, aside from Yun Li, Jianchen, and the two envoys, there was no one else with the strength of a Saint Master.
