Xu Yancheng was stunned.
Half a second ago, his deputy commander was still swearing. Half a second later …
He looked around. There was only one flaming man left in the air.
Before he could think, the fireballs smashed down one by one.
Even the deputy commander of the Fifth Awakening Stage couldn't stop it. He even lost his life because of it. The others were even more frightened. One by one, they fled to the distance.
Some of them ran too slow and suddenly turned into flying ash.
The orange-red flames bloomed, melting holes in the ground.
The rolling heat wave hit them. Even those who fled far away could feel a burst of heat on their skin.
Looking at this scene, their faces changed.
Their minds were spinning, and some of them were at a loss for words.
That flame …
It was so terrifying.
But their reaction wasn't slow. Soon, someone pointed to the distance, "Look over there!"
Three cannons could be vaguely seen. The muzzles were still condensing red light.
"Take them down!"
Xu Yancheng just shouted.
Suddenly,
Rumble ~
The ground trembled, and he looked around in surprise. "Could it be that a demon wave is coming?"
But suddenly, his pupils dilated, and there was panic in his eyes.
Around them, black pagodas gradually rose, accompanied by rumbling sounds.
Xu Yancheng was too familiar with this kind of tower!
Looking at the dark hole at the top of the tower, his heart chilled.
Just one arrow tower made him feel threatened. But now, there were arrow towers in all directions. Xu Yancheng couldn't count them at all.
Suddenly, cold sweat flowed down his face.
Originally, it would take a few seconds for the arrow towers to rise, which was enough time for them to fly a long distance. But Xu Yancheng hadn't expected that in the blink of an eye, the surrounding arrow towers would take shape after being distracted by the cannons.
They were like turtles in a jar.
In the team, the other high-ranking officials, including Lin Wei, had never really seen the power of the arrow towers. But they learned a lot from Xu Yancheng.
Now, who didn't understand that the Tree Shade Shelter, which they had never taken seriously, had actually set up an ambush, waiting for them!
They didn't expect that such a terrifying arrow tower could be formed so quickly in just a few seconds.
As his thoughts raced, Xu Yancheng decisively ran in the opposite direction.
His speed soared to the limit, and in a breath's time, he had already run to the side of the archer tower in a circle. He did not stop, nor did he have the thought of attacking the archer tower, and quickly ran outside.
As long as he ran out of the attack range of the arrow towers, he would be safe!
This was what he was thinking, and so were the other experts. They all ran out of the encirclement.
At this time, the arrow towers were just about to start shooting. Although the number of arrow towers was large, it was far less than the hundreds of hunters in the field. Not to mention that the attack range of the arrow towers was limited. Perhaps the first person to be targeted by the arrow tower would not survive, but overall, everyone had a lot of hope to escape.
However, no one noticed that among the rows of black towers, there was a white tower.
Or rather, they had discovered it, but they didn't have the time to think about it.
This white tower was 18 meters tall, and its appearance was much more exquisite than the arrow towers. The outer walls of the milky-white tower were engraved with mysterious patterns.
A dark blue four-edged crystal that was half the height of a human was floating quietly at the top of the tower. If someone were to get close and sense it carefully, they would discover that there was a huge amount of energy hidden within the crystal.
This was the Magus Tower.
A more advanced defensive building.
In addition to being able to attack normally like a conventional defensive building, the mage stationed in it could also be greatly enhanced through the Magus Tower's ability.
It was like a large ability enhancement device.
At this moment, Elaine was standing in the core control room of the Magus Tower. On the table in front of her, a basketball-sized crystal ball was also floating quietly.
She put her hands on the crystal ball, her eyes closed. Although she was in a closed room, she could perceive the outside scene.
Suddenly, Elaine's sky blue hair fluttered without wind, and the light on the crystal ball became brighter and brighter.
… …
Outside.
A burst of sharp whistling sound came, accompanied by the sound of a balloon being punctured.
However, the Awakened ones were also very fast. They didn't even look back as they ran outside.
Suddenly, snowflakes fell.
Some people were stunned. Although it was already past June, the climate change after the doomsday was getting more and more strange. The current temperature was even higher than the hottest period of the previous year.
How could it snow in this weather?!
Those people just instinctively thought, and their footsteps did not slow down.
However, in an instant, heavy snow flew, and the wind wrapped the snowflakes, instantly turning the area into a world of ice and snow.
The whistling sound of the wind came to their ears.
All they could see was a white light.
The snow on the ground piled up higher and higher, hindering their progress. The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and some of the weaker hunters were gradually unable to bear it.
Many hunters have been horrified to find that under the hindrance of this snowstorm, their speed has been getting slower and slower. Behind them, those deadly arrows continued to shoot from the arrow tower.
Puff puff puff puff, the hunters burst into blood mist, dying the white snow red.
On the other side, as a super expert, Xu Yancheng's speed was extremely fast. Even in the face of the snowstorm, his speed did not decrease much.
Beside him, there were two identical figures. This was his special ability, Mirror Image Doppelganger.
With this ability, even if he encountered great danger, he had the confidence to survive!
However, at this moment, the cold sweat on his forehead was getting more and more.
More than half of the surrounding arrow towers were aimed at him! Many of his doppelgangers had been shot!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Xu Yancheng's three figures flashed quickly, almost leaving afterimages. But in the next moment, an arrow pierced through the mirror image.
The mirror image's body was not as strong as the original body. It collapsed and turned into light spots and disappeared.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another rain of arrows came.
Xu Yancheng glanced back, and his pupils dilated.
Bang ~
The last mirror image also disappeared. For a long time, he couldn't condense another mirror image.
Even his original body, because he couldn't dodge in time, the arrow pierced his thigh. If it weren't for his breakthrough and his physical strength greatly improved, he would've died.
Even now, he was seriously injured.
Xu Yancheng breathed a long sigh of relief.
He finally ran out of the arrow tower's range!
"With my strength, even if I'm injured, I can survive in the wild. My top priority is to quickly leave the Tree Shade Shelter. I'll hide my identity and be a mercenary …"
So he thought.
Accompanied by a rumbling sound.
In front of him, several black towers suddenly rose, blocking his retreat.
Xu Yancheng suddenly froze, "Shouldn't this kind of arrow tower be set up in advance?"
Even when the arrow tower rose and they were surrounded, he thought it was a trap set up by the other party in advance, and they just fell into this situation because they were a step behind.
But now, he had a feeling that someone was coldly looking down at them from the clouds.
With a wave of his hand, he could summon the arrow tower.
