"Just them?"
Cleansed Rue was confused as she watched Seven Light and the others rush toward the entrance. She couldn't figure out what the Shifeng was trying to do.
Although she had witnessed Seven Light's and the others' strength, individual strength was nothing in a Guild war. Moreover, peak experts weren't even as effective as ordinary Tier 2 Elementalists. Tier 2 Elementalists, more or less, had some AOE Spells, which could deal significant damage on a battlefield. If they had large-scale destruction Spells, they'd be even more effective.
She felt that the Shifeng was joking with her.
"Don't worry. Seven Light and the others are still very strong." Shifeng smiled and said, "This place is too secluded. Let's go to the main entrance and take a look."
Cleansed Rue was speechless at Shi Feng's words. However, she needed to take a good look at the situation.
…
On the walls of Moon Creek Town, a large number of Hundred Flowers Palace members were waiting anxiously for the Starlink Army that was slowly approaching in formation.
In the face of this life and death battle for the Hundred Flowers Palace, even experts who had experienced hundreds of battles couldn't help but feel slightly nervous.
While Crimson Heart was observing the battlefield, Shifeng and Cleansed Rue arrived at the top of the wall.
"Commander Ye Feng, you're here." When Crimson Heart saw the approaching Shifeng and the others, she could not help but say, "Judging by the situation, Starlink is planning a frontal assault. It doesn't intend to attack from all sides. By the looks of it, Starlink intends to trap us in Moon Creek Town and annihilate us."
"Despicable Starlink! It actually dares to underestimate us! Does it think it can easily annihilate us with just a portion of its combat power?" a middle-aged upper echelon from the Hundred Flowers Palace bellowed.
Although Starlink's forces were frightening, Moon Creek Town had its own war weapons. Eight Goblin Cannons and four Trebuchets were set up in key defensive positions. They could attack together with the Cannon Turrets at a single command. It wasn't like Moon Creek Town was completely powerless.
Cleansed Rue wasn't angry at Starlink's belittling attitude. Instead, she breathed a sigh of relief.
It was true that Starlink looked down on the Hundred Flowers Palace, but Starlink had the right to do the same.
Moreover, compared to facing over a hundred Large Ballistae at the same time, facing only sixty Large Ballistae this time was undoubtedly much easier.
"They've mobilized 60 Large Ballistas?" Shi Feng wasn't particularly surprised when he saw the army approaching their firing range.
The Large Ballistas were Consumables to begin with, as they would lose durability whenever they were attacked. Starlink's main reason for attacking Moon Creek Town this time was to set an example for everyone else. Since 60 Large Ballistas were enough to deal with the town, there was no need to mobilize all of its Large Ballistas.
Moreover, with the Large Ballista's full movement speed, the Defense Turrets would have a hard time hitting it from 1,000 yards away. Meanwhile, the Large Ballista's range was 1,300 yards. As long as it moved between 1,000 and 1,300 yards, the Defense Turrets wouldn't pose much of a threat. At the same time, the Large Ballista could display its full potential.
With Moon Creek Town's defensive capabilities, sixty large ballistae were more than enough.
Not long after the Shifeng reached the top of the wall, a loud shout came from the turret not far away.
"Vice President! The army has entered the firing range of the turrets! "
When Crimson Heart's voice rang out, the members of the Hundred Flowers Palace atop the city walls grew nervous as they turned to look at Crimson Heart.
Once they entered the range of the turrets, it meant that the battle had begun!
"Attack! Prioritize firing at the most crowded areas! "Crimson Heart took a deep breath and gave the order.
Immediately, all of the Defense Turrets and war weapons fired simultaneously.
The sound of explosions echoed throughout Moon Creek Town.
Boom … Boom … Boom …
However, just as the attacks were about to land on Starlink Army, they exploded in midair as if an invisible wall had blocked them.
"This is …" Crimson Heart's expression darkened when she saw the invisible wall above Starlink Army. "A defensive magic array?"
There were two types of defensive magic arrays. The first type was for towns and cities, and the second type was for field defensive magic arrays.
Field defensive magic arrays were extremely rare because they could be used at any time, anywhere. In Guild wars, field defensive magic arrays were akin to godly weapons. Even now, the Hundred Flowers Palace had yet to obtain a single one, much less a complete set. Town defensive magic arrays, on the other hand, could only be used inside towns and cities. Hence, they were relatively common. First-rate Guilds would have a relatively easy time obtaining one.
Meanwhile, Starlink was currently using a field defensive magic array.
"Hahaha! Do you really think Starlink will let you attack us without any preparations?" Lu Xingluo, who watched the battle from the top of a hill, could not help but laugh. "Notify everyone! As soon as the Large Ballistas enter range, fire! Let them know the consequences of making an enemy out of Starlink! "
"Understood!" Dawn Web, who stood beside Lu Xingluo, promptly issued the command.
Meanwhile, the Starlink Army's Movement Speed was extremely fast. After a short moment, the army had crossed the 1,300-yard range.
"Attack!"
All of a sudden, sixty Large Ballistas fired simultaneously, and sixty massive bolts shot towards Moon Creek Town like blazing hot bolts.
Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions filled the air above Moon Creek Town. Even the town's defensive magic array, which was capable of blocking Tier 3 attacks, began to crack under the intense bombardment. It was obvious that the magic array had consumed a lot of its energy.
This situation made the Hundred Flowers Palace's members anxious.
Defensive magic arrays had an energy limit. Once the magic array's energy was depleted, it would disappear. Normally, a defensive magic array could last for a very long time against normal attacks, but against attacks capable of shattering the magic array's barrier, it wouldn't last more than a few hits.
Without the magic array's support, they'd have to face the Large Ballistas' attacks.
The Hundred Flowers Palace's members weren't the only ones shocked by the Large Ballistas' attacks. Moon Creek Town's players were just as shocked by the Large Ballistas' effects, especially the various powers' spies.
They had never thought that the Large Ballistas would have a bonus effect on defensive magic arrays. This was undoubtedly a disaster for the various powers.
"Sure enough, a Basic Defensive Magic Array will have a hard time stopping the Large Ballistas' attacks." Shifeng looked at the cracks in the sky before turning to Seven Light, Remnant Cloud, Silent Blade, and Stubborn Bone. He then commanded, "It's your turn to attack! Be careful of those ballistas!"
"Understood!"
Seven Light and the other three revealed excited expressions when they heard Shifeng's command. Without hesitation, they jumped off the wall and charged at Starlink Army.
"What are they trying to do?"
"Have they lost their minds?!"
"No, that's not right. They don't seem to be from the Hundred Flowers Palace. Based on their emblem, I think they belong to the Ling YI Society."
Whether it was Starlink's members or the spectating players, they were stunned when they saw the four players charging at Starlink Army.
"Have Ling Yi's members lost their minds in fear? Are they trying to run?" Lu Xingluo sneered as he looked at Seven Light's group of four. "Relay my orders! Don't let them get away, even if they've lost their minds! Kill those four!"
"Understood!"
Following Lu Xingluo's command, the four Large Ballistas, which had been targeting Moon Creek Town, fired at Seven Light's group of four.
Immediately, the four ballistas transformed into four streaks of red light that tore through the air and flew at Seven Light's group of four.
Just as the four streaks of red light were about to reach Seven Light's group of four, four gigantic figures suddenly appeared before them. Immediately afterward, the four streaks of red light stopped before the four figures.
"How is this possible?"
Everyone was stupefied when they saw the four gigantic figures.
