Seeing this scene, the people on the city walls were all taken aback.
So even began to panic.
The great formation had visibly weakened.
Does this an…
It might not hold for much longer?
Next, they saw the giant bear leader leap down once more!
Both hands slamd toward the formation!
This ti!
The massive force created a powerful shockwave.
Even cracks appeared in the ground.
Such terrifying strength was enough to strike fear into anyone.
As the giant bear leader continued to attack the magic array,
Everyone could feel that the magic array's power was growing weaker and weaker.
"Hahaha! Human scum, soon I will tear apart your turtle shell!"
"Bears, follow and attack together!"
Following the command of the giant bear leader, a group of giant bear soldiers charged forward from the army.
The other two beast clan leaders were not willing to fall behind either.
They had also realized that the gray mist from earlier was indeed effective.
Now, the entire formation was far weaker than before.
Even the counterattacks from the magic array couldn't harm the fur of the giant bear leader.
With this in mind, they naturally wouldn't remain idle.
Fortunately, the other two races were airborne,
Otherwise, a joint attack might not have been as coordinated.
On the city walls, the divine spells of the defenders continuously struck at the beast clan forces.
Each divine spell could take down many mbers of the beast clan.
But…
The densely packed beast clan soldiers kept coming in waves, undeterred.
Gabriel watched this scene, calculating the best opportunity in his mind.
At this mont, the defensive magic array was growing increasingly fragile.
It seed it could be breached at any mont!
anwhile, the stronger individuals began rallying their forces for the upcoming battle.
An intense struggle was now inevitable.
They had no idea when reinforcents would arrive or even if reinforcents existed at all.
At this mont, the only thing they could rely on was themselves!
"Life and death, this is the final mont!"
"I know your families are in Ascension City…"
"My family is here too."
"These beast clan invaders have taken our hos,
And now their blades are at our Ascension City's gates."
"During this ti, we've taken in many refugees in Ascension City."
"You've heard from them what happens when the beast clan takes over a city.
Everyone will die!"
"So, in this battle, we have no retreat!"
"For yourselves, for your families!"
"Fight to the death! Never let the beast clan step into Ascension City!"
"…"
Gabriel kept his focus entirely on the defensive magic array.
At this mont, he had to monitor it closely.
Everyone in Ascension City who could fight was ready,
Awaiting the final mont when the magic array would be breached.
Then, they would charge!
The magic array grew weaker and weaker.
Finally, with one last strike from the giant bear leader,
The magic array shattered!
The protective barrier completely disappeared.
The giant bear leader's paw slamd into the ground,
Creating a massive crater.
All the beast clan forces began charging toward Ascension City.
At this critical mont, Gabriel activated the offensive magic array!
Fewer than ten people in all of Ascension City knew about its existence.
The beast clan, naturally, had no preparation for it.
The fluctuations of the magic array spread out once more.
But to the beast clan, a magic array?
The humans' magic arrays—could they possibly create another turtle shell?
Even if they made more, it would be aningless!
Eventually, they would all be destroyed!
At this point, the beast clan had already begun their charge.
Nothing could stop their advance now!
However, in the next instant,
A powerful attack was unleashed toward the beast clan forces!
Massive explosions engulfed almost all the beast clan!
Even the three leaders suffered varying degrees of injuries.
When the explosions subsided, the ground was littered with the corpses of countless beast clan soldiers.
This shocked those in Ascension City who had been prepared to die fighting the beast clan army.
But their shock quickly turned to joy!
Now, their burden had been significantly reduced.
Although the beast clan leaders reacted swiftly, the attack had been perfectly tid.
Even with their imnse power, the leaders could only save a portion of the beast clan soldiers.
Moreover, the three leaders themselves suffered considerable injuries.
The thick-skinned giant bear leader had half his body caught in the blast.
His massive fra looked as though it had shrunk by half.
This was due to his formidable defensive abilities.
As for the other two beast clan leaders, they weren't so lucky.
One was killed outright in the explosion.
The eagle leader's feathers were completely burned off, and even one of his wings was broken.
"Damn it… Damn you humans! You should all die!!"
The eagle leader's venomous voice echoed continuously.
In contrast, the people of Ascension City were now filled with a fighting spirit.
Originally, they had been prepared to die.
But now, they wanted nothing more than to strike the beast clan while they were down!
Under Gabriel's leadership, the defenders counterattacked the remnants of the beast clan army.
Before they could even close in, a barrage of divine spells was already raining down on the remaining beast clan forces.
"Beast scum! Taste my divine spell!"
"Kill them! Kill every last one of them!"
"…"
Normally, in such a battle, the humans would be at a disadvantage.
Because the beast clan always had a bloodthirsty craving for battle.
But…
This ti was different.
The earlier attack had left psychological scars on the beast clan.
They couldn't muster their usual fighting spirit.
What remained was nothing more than being surrounded and beaten by the humans.
The top-tier combatants of Ascension City targeted the leaders of the beast clan.
The rest of the defenders focused on the soldiers.
This ti, there were almost no surprises!
The beast clan leaders could only flee in disarray.
The beast clan soldiers followed suit, retreating continuously.
This battle brought a sense of victory to the people of Ascension City.
"Fantastic! These beast scum are nothing after all!"
"As expected of the City Lord! Without the City Lord's offensive magic array,
We would have faced tens of thousands of beast clan soldiers.
How could we be crushing them like this now?"
"Indeed, the City Lord was key!"
"Long live the City Lord!"
"We've won!"

At this mont, Gabriel also stopped his advance.
The beast clan leaders had retreated quickly.
They couldn't pursue further.
Because the southern region…
Had already beco territory occupied by the beast clan.
They had no idea how many beast clan soldiers awaited them if they kept chasing.
Thus, they had to stop here.
In the coming days, the magic array needed to be repaired.
And they had to find out what exactly the beast clan used to weaken the defensive formation.
That gray mist…
If they hadn't acted quickly,
If the wind-elent spells hadn't been cast in ti,
They might not have achieved such results.
The beast clan would have broken through.
At that point, Gabriel would have been forced to activate the second sealing magic array,
Completely isolating Ascension City from the outside world.
Fortunately, they had reacted in ti.
This victory over the beast clan army and their subsequent counterattack
Would likely bring Ascension City so peace for a while.
During this ti, they had to contact the 5-Elent Temple.
This ti they had repelled the beast clan army, but what about the next ti?
Would the beast clan send an even larger force?
Moreover,
The offensive magic array could only work as a surprise attack.
Next ti, the beast clan would surely be prepared.
Achieving such a victory would then beco exceedingly difficult!
So…
It was imperative to contact the temple and the god king during this period!
Gabriel thought silently to himself.
At that mont, he felt sothing was wrong.
It was as if a great fear was looming ahead!
