"Seize the city!"
When that terrifying explosion wreaked havoc, the very first mont it passed, Zhao Xuanxuan, Grant, Javier, and Santiago simultaneously roared in fury!
Previously, Li Wei hadn't told them about any specific tactics; just a single sentence: adapt to changing circumstances.
In truth, even Li Wei himself hadn't expected it to go this smoothly.
He had already played a stunt like this a few months ago, shooting and blasting a Transcendent Body Half-Goatman Spellcaster into pieces. He figured whether it was the Neanderthals or the Frost Duke, they should have learned so lessons.
Of course, it was also possible they had already learned their lesson. At the very least, guarded by five hundred Level 4 heavily armored Ability Users plus five hundred Level 3 Ability Users, watched over by twenty Enchanted Giant Ballistas atop the city walls, and under the gaze of a Neanderthal Cross-Border Player—who the fuck could approach silently and tracelessly?
Who the fuck could have thought Li Wei would be so cunning, sneaking a change of armor halfway, and ending up playing this trick!
Regardless, at this mont, upon seeing the city wall collapse for a full several hundred ters, seizing the city—a goal they hadn't even dared to think about previously—instantly beca the most important objective!
"Stop them!"
Soone within the Centaur legion was roaring furiously, while simultaneously, feather arrows rained down like flying locusts.
A portion of the Centaur Cavalry simply gave up on attacking and began charging toward the collapsed city wall.
That three-hundred-man ambushing force to the west also began sprinting wildly at full speed. Everyone was doing their utmost to charge toward the collapsed section of the city wall, but they were all a bit slow because the distance was too far.
At this mont, Li Wei had already summoned his second Four-Star warhorse. Treading through the thick smoke, treading over the still-burning raging flas, as well as so Ability Users who hadn't been blown to death or burned to death, he plunged headfirst right in.
He didn't even spare a single glance at that dropped Six-Star Universal Gold Card!
I don't want it!
Seize the city!
This was the sole thought remaining in his mind right now.
The speed of the Four-Star warhorse was elevated to its absolute limit, resembling a streak of black lightning.
"Stop him! Whoever kills Li Wei shall be rewarded with an Earldom!"
Soone roared hoarsely beneath the ruins of the city wall. The Ability User soldiers who had recovered their wits began intercepting. There were still quite a few Ability Users who hadn't been blown to death or burned to death.
Furthermore, there were also so reserve forces atop the city walls!
They were highly elite, so they only remained stupefied for a few seconds before reacting.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Over a dozen crossbow bolts shot over violently. Li Wei didn't even look; with a casual wave of the Five-Star Enchanted Lance in his hands, he knocked them all flying.
Roar!
A heavily armored Half-Pigman standing two ters tall roared, blood foaming at his mouth as he charged headlong to ram into Li Wei.
But his speed simply wasn't enough. Li Wei wielded his lance single-handedly; the two-and-a-half-ter long lance instantaneously pierced through, skewering his head into an exploding waterlon!
At the sa ti, the galloping warhorse made a leaping bound, jumping over four ters high, vaulting over a massive chunk of cent.
Smack! Smack!
Two crisp sounds of whipping strikes rang out. One on the left and one on the right, two lightly armored Half-Catn who felt their speed was very fast and were highly confident, wanted to take the chance to ambush him. But Li Wei's speed truly left them gazing in the dust, unable to catch up.
The Enchanted Lance in his hands moved so fast it practically couldn't even leave an afterimage, viciously whipping each of them dozens of ters away, snapping their spines in the process.
Forcibly shattering the life cores within their bodies along with it!
It couldn't be helped. What level was Li Wei at right now? 53 points of Strength, 65 points of Agility, coupled with Perception 8. This twenty-kilogram fine steel Enchanted Lance was nothing more than a small toy to him.
Complex terrain, chaotic situation, enemies outnumbering us?
Nonexistent.
Under the envelopnt of Perception 8, the entire battlefield was transparent.
The most effective thod to deal with an existence like him was super-saturated long-range attacks, directly focusing fire with heavy equipnt to seal off all evasion and maneuvering space.
But it was a great pity.
The explosion just now had caused the magic structure of the Magic Well to oscillate. The collapse of the city wall had also practically destroyed the majority of the Enchanted Giant Ballistas. The surviving Ability Users were still nurous, but none of them could organize themselves. What were they supposed to use to block him?
In the blink of an eye, Li Wei had already ridden single-handedly, in one breath flipping, whipping, and exploding over a dozen Ability Users attempting to intercept him, while simultaneously blocking dozens of crossbow bolts. Then he smoothly charged into the city. This place was actually also the hardest-hit disaster zone; the massive shockwave had swept across, leaving a complete ss, and that Magic Well bore the brunt of the impact.
A guy suspected to be a Neanderthal Spellcaster was going all out to conduct ergency repairs. anwhile, another Neanderthal had already organized a batch of Ability User soldiers within these short dozen seconds. Seeing Li Wei charge over right now, it was truly like enemies eting, their eyes blazing with exceptional redness!
With an "aowuu" howl, he charged forward. This ti, it was finally a match of equals.
Even Li Wei didn't dare to be overly arrogant. Tapping the horse's belly lightly, the warhorse imdiately—sharing a telepathic connection—made a micro-adjustnt in direction, brushing past the Neanderthal's shoulder. In the split second the opponent's attack missed, Li Wei leaned backward, the Enchanted Lance in his hands heavily slapping onto his back.
The difference between having a mount and not having a mount was just this massive.
The difference between speed that had ramped up and speed that hadn't ramped up was similarly this massive!
"Bang!"
That Neanderthal was beaten into a stumble, flying out over twenty ters. A magical light flashed around his body, indicating he hadn't been injured at all.
But it didn't matter. Because in the very next second, Li Wei righted his body, and the long lance in his hands beca like an attacking hurricane. Waving, heavy strikes, piercing thrusts, horizontal sweeps—it was so fast an afterimage couldn't be seen, instantaneously piercing eight Ability Users in a row, directly carving out a path and heading straight for that Neanderthal Spellcaster who was currently tuning and repairing the Magic Well.
"*&...%%..."
Watching as the long lance was about to pierce through the other party's body, that Neanderthal Spellcaster violently turned his head and shouted out a string of bizarre, obscure syllables. Li Wei felt an illusion as if ti had instantaneously stagnated, and his ears felt entirely as if a hundred explosive thunders were detonating in a chain reaction.
It was ntal Shock, an attack thod entirely unique to Casters.
Furthermore, his level was very high, the kind that was twice as high as Second Aunt's ntal attacks.
In an instant...
The warhorse beneath him let out a neigh, fresh blood directly spurting from its massive horse head. It imdiately stumbled and fell to the ground, its life or death unknown.
Li Wei was directly thrown off, crashing to the ground, bleeding from his seven orifices, suffering pain worse than death!
However, the good news was that within a twenty-ter radius, the rest of the Ability Users had their heads uniformly explode.
And after shouting out this bizarre incantation, that elderly Neanderthal imdiately drew a short sword, leaping into the air, aiming to thrust his blade into Li Wei's heart.
Clean and decisive, without the slightest hesitation or soft-heartedness!
Right now, Li Wei wasn't even wearing his Noble Crest Armor. If he were to be skewered clean through, he would at the very least suffer near-fatal heavy injuries!
But right in this split second of life and death, Li Wei jolted awake.
Yes, against an unsolvable ultimate move like ntal Shock, the best thod was to use Spiritual Power to withstand it.
And unfortunately for the enemy, Li Wei had quite a lot of Spiritual Power. Over the past year, although he ate Straw Mushroom at Soup intermittently, he couldn't hold off Second Aunt constantly giving him special treatnt. Thus, not too long ago, he had smoothly obtained 2 extra Spiritual Power. Adding it all up, he already had as much as 32 points.
So although this Neanderthal Spellcaster's ntal Shock was formidable, it still only whittled away 28 points of his Spiritual Power in an instant, and then he recovered in less than a second.
At this mont, Li Wei thrust out his left hand like lightning, grabbing onto the blade of this short sword in one fell swoop, halting the other party's thrusting montum.
In the next second, Li Wei went all out and directly executed a reverse thrust. Hearing only a crack, that Neanderthal Spellcaster's arm snapped. He should have possessed 40 points of Strength, but it still wasn't enough to look at.
In a flash, the hilt of the short sword directly struck his throat. And right at this mont, a bright ripple akin to water flashed past, unexpectedly blocking this certain-death strike.
This was very normal. As a high-level spellcaster, how could he possibly not have a Magic Crest that defended against certain death?
But Li Wei wasn't panicked. In fact, he had anticipated this long ago. So what if you have a Magic Crest guarding against certain death? Because at this mont, he had already drawn his Four-Star Enchanted Dagger, stabbing consecutively into that Neanderthal Spellcaster's heart twelve tis in a single instant.
Directly breaking his Magic Crest, and then instantly killing him!
Even soone as strong as Li Wei would suffer near-fatal heavy injuries if stabbed in the heart, let alone him?
At the exact sa ti, Li Wei dodged on the spot. In between his leaps and bounds, he had already retreated several ters continuously. A blade light flashed, and his left leg was almost chopped off. It turned out to be another Neanderthal Cross-Border Player frantically attacking over, wielding a saber and a shield.
The expression on his face had turned incomparably malevolent, akin to a demon. A bloody-colored frenzied tide even ignited all over his body.
This is Blood Burning?
And it's at least Blood Burning 6!
A bit troubleso.
Li Wei decisively put away his dagger, drew out his Enchanted Heavy Sword, and exchanged three moves head-on with this Neanderthal Cross-Border Player.
After the three moves, Li Wei felt as if the bones in both his wrists were about to shatter.
Supported by the Blood Burning Talent, the opponent's Strength was at least twenty points higher than his.
But most importantly, his attacks possessed a certain bizarre resonance, much like the strikes of Zhao Xuanxuan's large iron hamr. As long as one dared to clash head-on with him, the aftershocks of that power could drill deep into the bones, continuously spreading, continuously impacting, and forming an endless chain of resonance points.
Fuck!
Cold sweat broke out all over Li Wei. The key was that his Spiritual Power consumption was excessive right now, and the advantage of his Perception 8 had also been dragged down.
Without hesitation, Li Wei turned around and ran. He needed ti for the aftershocks of that power within his bones to dissipate.
Fortunately, his advantage in this aspect required no explanation.
Dodging and leaping continuously, he evaded a flurry of blade lights from that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player. In the next second, the tips of his toes tapped the ground, and like an afterimage, he once again evaded a few charging Ability User soldiers, running wildly for over a hundred ters in a single breath.
And although that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player was in a state of fully unleashing Blood Burning, he surprisingly couldn't catch up. The key was that this place was the ruins of a collapsed city wall. He actually wanted to ride a horse, but he lacked Li Wei's capability of treating such terrain like flat ground.
Just being delayed for those two or three seconds, Li Wei had already recovered.
Capitalizing on his pursuit, Li Wei leaped down from a massive boulder. In the instant the opponent could not borrow force, Li Wei decisively counterattacked. First, an Enchanted War Spear executed a Fatal Throw, precisely blasting onto the opponent's shield. Although the opponent's shield was also an Enchanted Shield, it was still forcibly subjected to a shield-breaking ceremony.
Most importantly, that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player was situated in mid-air, unable to borrow force. Struck by this throw, his figure inevitably fell backward.
And almost the exact instant he fell, a trap violently activated. Massive Enchanted Fine Steel sawteeth, like the giant maw of a shark, bit onto his right leg in one fell swoop.
A Three-Star Enchanted Trap, oh!
In such complex terrain where lines of sight were obstructed, this truly was Li Wei's heaven-chosen battlefield.
Deploying such a trap only required a single second for him.
Of course, this trap still couldn't cause too much damage to the Neanderthal Cross-Border Player, but within a short period, it ford a massive impact on his movent.
And Li Wei had already roared loudly, dual-wielding his Enchanted Heavy Sword, charging at full speed, and chopping down head-on!
If it was just a mont ago, Li Wei wouldn't have dared to do this. That Neanderthal's Agility was similarly extraordinary, his blade light like a cleansing cascade.
But right now, he could only barely raise his shield to block.
And then his Enchanted Shield was forcibly chopped in half by a single strike from Li Wei, the entire person chopped until magical light flickered wildly all over his body.
Holy shit, having good equipnt truly allowed one to be this capricious.
The unaffected Neanderthal retorted with three consecutive backhand slashes, forcing Li Wei to block with his all. In the blink of an eye, he was shocked until his two arms felt as if they were broken.
Fuck his mother!
And right at this mont, several traces of gloom flashed across his heart: 'Shit.' With lightning speed, he dodged to the side. At the exact sa ti, two thick crossbow bolts flew past, grazing his body.
It turned out there were still two giant ballistas deep within this city. And who knows where they ca from, but Ability Users were surging over in massive numbers. They charged onto the ruins, charged onto the city walls, and spontaneously organized a defense.
Moreover, the strength of the majority of them was at the Level 2 or even Level 3 Ability User stage.
aning to say, perhaps a few months ago, they were all still ordinary people, survivors.
Right now, they instead treated Li Wei as the invader.
Although this was very normal.
"Hold the defense! Hold the defense!"
Many people were shouting loudly, and that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player was shouting loudly as well, growing increasingly excited as he shouted. The long knife in his hands instantly severed the trap. He also switched to a dual-handed grip on his saber, murderous intent boiling as he chased after Li Wei!
Fuck!
The worst part was that Li Wei was constantly surrounded by reckless, fearless Ability Users howling "aowuu, aowuu" as they charged up. If he didn't kill them, they were in the way; if he killed them, it delayed his affairs.
Li Wei could only manage extre evasions, extre kiting. And that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player was like an unyielding piece of tough at. Coordinated with those Ability Users, no matter how Li Wei evaded, he could always catch up. This guy was simply a King of Urban Street Fighting.
What's worse, several dozen Centaur Cavalry had already taken the lead in charging to the collapsed section of the city wall. This was determined by their previous locations.
Zhao Xuanxuan and the others had fast horses, but the Centaurs' speed wasn't slow either!
In just these short few minutes, roughly three hundred Ability Users had already gathered at the breach in the city wall. The situation was deteriorating.
"Mark!"
But at this mont, Li Wei suddenly let out a cold sneer and began to roar loudly.
It was ti to use his killer moves and trump cards.
You wouldn't truly believe that I don't have any trump cards, would you!
In this mont, even though Zhao Xuanxuan and the others were still a kiloter away, currently locked in endless slaughter with that Centaur Cavalry unit...
Paladin Mark, located among them, was exactly at this mont as if he had listened to the calling of the Gods!
He let out a furious roar, his entire person enveloped by a bright divine light.
Previously, he was still plain and unremarkable, seemingly no different from the other heavy armored cavalryn.
But in this mont, his warhorse, his armor and weapons, including his entire person, appeared as dazzlingly bright as a sun.
This was the strongest form of a Paladin.
"Gods Above! The Light Shall Achieve Certain Victory!"
Such shouts erged from his mouth, and then he killed his way out on a single horse. Traveling at a speed of nearly one hundred kiloters per hour, a single hamr strike completely smashed the head of that Neanderthal Cross-Border Player who had intercepted Zhao Xuanxuan and was currently tangled in combat with Zhao Xuanxuan, Benjamin, Javier, and the others.
The very next instant, it was as if he incarnated into an invincible terrestrial God of War. In a single breath, he consecutively killed twenty-seven Centaur Cavalry, forcibly carving out a path of blood, and then charged over taking the lead before all others.
Dozens of heavily armored Half-Pign and Half-Minotaurs ford formations while howling, attempting to resist. As a result, they were forcibly ramd by his warhorse, creating a massive gap. Although this ramming directly caused the divine light on his body to dim by half, the effect was undeniably solid.
All the Half-Pign and Half-Minotaurs that were ramd flying exhibited a sort of inconceivable transformation. Their strength seed to be fading; they could no longer maintain their Half-Pigman or Half-Minotaur appearances, beginning to transform toward normal humans.
Naturally, even their cognitive thinking also changed along with it.
