It was pitch-black and starless, with only a bright moon hanging in the sky. The icy moonlight shone down on the city, outlining huge, muscular shadows roaming, trampling, and roaring …
A brilliant light suddenly flickered in the fortress. It was like a pillar reaching into the sky, connecting the city with the night sky. It then unleashed rays of light in all directions, protecting the city like the light of the Heavens.
It was a barrier!
It was the source of life that humans relied on the most after the arrival of the Magic Age. Only with a barrier could there be a stable city, and only with a stable city could people continue to live on … They no longer had to fight with demons in the wild for land and water.
The barrier that resembled the rainbow of Heaven and the yellow of the earth was finally activated, looming over the city. The Mud Morphing Monsters and Rock Monsters that were pouring into the city like a black tide immediately suffered a strong backlash when they came into contact with the barrier, keeping them out of the city.
The scariest thing about the demon creatures was their numbers and their endless numbers. It was not that the Mages could not kill the demon creatures, but the endless army of demon creatures had made them lose all hope of fighting the demon creatures.
"If it was an hour earlier, even an hour later, the number of the Rock Monsters would have decreased by half. The city is now full of Rock Monsters. Soldiers like us might end up as their members at any second. How long do we have to fight to eliminate all the Rock Monsters in the barrier?" a Commander sighed.
The commanders of the military, the authorities of the Magic Association, and the powerful Mages had all gathered in the clock tower. They had witnessed the barrier's brilliance and the power of the Barrier Core with their own eyes, but the difference in numbers between them and the Rock Monsters was simply too huge!
The barrier was able to stop the demon creatures from invading the city, but the Mages still had to drive the demon creatures out with their own hands. The problem they were facing was exactly what Mo Fan had predicted. The fire had already reached the wall. It was too late to put it out now!
"We won't let these disgusting creatures get away with it. Brown Rock Mages, listen up, help me eliminate the demon creatures that are invading the city, and bring peace back to the city!" Lu Bin yelled furiously.
The average strength of the Brown Rock Mages was in the Advanced Level. As the Barrier Core was activated and the Magic Forbidding Seal was lifted, the power of the other two Elements had returned to their bodies. How could they possibly admit defeat so easily after recovering their energy?
Lu Bin led the Brown Rock Mages out of the clock tower and charged at the Granite Beasts that were still surrounding the streets. The biggest threat to the city was the Rock Generals and the Granite Beasts. They could easily crush an entire group of Mages on their own, leaving the Mages feeling of defeat.
In order to restore everyone's morale, Lu Bin had to kill and fight. He had to ask everyone to fight the Rock Monsters with all they had. That way, the city with the barrier still had a chance to survive!
"Let's work together!"
"Let's!"
The Brown Rock Mages were the most respected group of Mages in the city. They set an example by leading the vanguard.
"Yeah, let's work together. We've held on for so long. Even though the night is long, the dawn is right in front of us. As long as we work together, we will surely overcome the difficulties. The whole country will be proud of our warriors!" Xie Qinghua, the commander of the army, declared.
Xie Chunhua had more than ten Commanders and Officers with him. They yelled out their oaths and led their men on the counterattack after hearing the encouragement.
The battle to defend the city had come to an end. They had to eliminate the Mud Morphing Monsters and Rock Monsters in order to bring peace to the city and establish a real Elemental Capital. Otherwise, the city would turn into a city of monsters. The hopes and efforts that the people had put in would be in vain.
The first half of the night had been filled with darkness, while the second half of the night had been a struggle for the light.
Mo Fan was no longer in a position to judge whether his decision was right or wrong. At least, he was touched by their determination. Back when the Dark Abyss of the Ancient Capital was approaching the inner city, the situation was a hundred times scarier than it was now, yet they still managed to find a glimmer of hope with the determination of the people to go all out …
The glimmer of hope in the city had yet to be extinguished. As long as there was one person left in the city, they would not lose the battle to establish the city!
"Their determination is easily crushed by the Black-Silver Rock Demon's overwhelming fear. I'll help them preserve their determination as long as possible. Let's hope a miracle happens. Let's go, we'll start with the Black-Silver Rock Demon that has just evolved!" Mo Fan said to Wen Xia, who was behind him.
"Wait a second, if you really want to do that, I'll bring my men with me. They are all Advanced Mages, too," Wen Xia said.
"Sure, it'll save us a lot of time if we have a few more people as bait," Mo Fan agreed.
"They are going to take part in the battle!" Wen Xia said.
…
Wen Xia had her own men. She had left the rest of the army to Xie Qinghua.
She had brought five men with her, most of them at the peak of the Advanced Level. They followed Wen Xia into the chaotic streets of the city. Vice Commander Hou immediately asked, "Commander, are we going to kill the Black-Silver Rock Demon? Is this a special order from the commander? "
"I'm afraid it's a suicide squad," Vice Commander Jin said coldly.
"So what if it's suicide? If we succeed, we will leave our names in the city's history. I'm sick of dealing with those absentee workers in those mines and driving away those little creatures. I finally have a chance to make a name for myself, HAHAHA …"
Among Wen Xia's five subordinates, four were burly male Mages. Only one of them was a quiet female soldier. She was petite and skinny, with an ordinary face. If she wasn't wearing a dignified military uniform, no one would think she was a commander. It was obvious that she held the highest position among Wen Xia's subordinates.
"It's my decision. The five of you will assist him and kill the Black-Silver Rock Demon!" Wen Xia pointed at Mo Fan, who was leading the group.
"What? Help that little brat??? "
"Commander, if you didn't mention it, I would have thought he was just a scout who would run away as soon as the battle started!" Vice Commander Hou burst out laughing.
The others were amused, too. A student who was obviously here to learn was clearly a burden to their team. How could they possibly help him? Were they going to ask a weak student like him to kill the ferocious Black-Silver Rock Demons?
