If I rember correctly, the Great Prince of the Minosians will, in the future, participate in Athens' Panathenaic Gas and win all prizes, only to be envied by the Athenian youths. Subsequently, on his way to Thebes, he will be ambushed and killed by the Athenians.
Thus, the enmity between the Minosians and Athenians began. As the Chief God worshiped by both cities, Athena could only watch this fratricidal farce unfold.
I wonder if the shadows of the gods are still lurking behind this.
As Luo En pondered silently, he inadvertently looked up and saw in the dim starlight of the night, dense black dots seed to drift across the sky.
Wait! They weren't dots! It was a large group of flying monsters!
As Luo En's gaze sharpened, his wide-open purple eyes reflected the silhouettes of birds with human faces.
"Above! Siren harpies!"
The warning shout from a scribe behind startled the Great Prince, and his soothed heartstrings imdiately tightened. He bellowed out loud at once.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!
It's the Divine Blood clan! Activate the Defensive Charms, now!"
In an instant, the ssage was relayed, the warning magic circles on the watchtowers were activated simultaneously, and the desolate sound of horns echoed along the entire coastline, spreading towards Knossos Royal City.
Compared to the amphibious Sea Beasts, these Divine Blood relatives with the ability to fly had the advantage of bypassing high walls, diving straight into the heartland city-states of Crete Island.
"Take cover! Take cover!"
The troops stationed within the city, upon seeing the signals along the coastline, imdiately sounded the alarms and called out loudly.
"Everyone, get inside imdiately, lock your doors and windows, and don't co out!"
Simultaneously, a fierce wind gusted, dust rose, and the currents lifted by the wind swept across houses and streets, leaving behind a sharp wail.
The residents in Knossos City, who were a bit confused at first, now rushed into nearby houses with pale faces as if jolted awake from a dream.
Prior beast waves were mostly limited to landings from the sea, and this fixed mode of attack led them to believe subconsciously that as long as the coastline was defended, Knossos City would be absolutely safe.
However, the vast sea was ho not only to amphibious sea monsters but also to the Divine Blood relatives capable of flight!
This sudden change imdiately disrupted the Minosians' defensive rhythm.
After a number of limited-range arrows were fired to little effect, most not even touching the feathers of the Siren harpies but being blown away by the surrounding chaotic air currents.
"Spellcasters! Spellcasters! Hurry, intercept them!"
Amidst the loud roars of the Great Prince on the city walls, the sowhat listless priests and sorcerers had no choice but to gulp down Magic Potions to restore their energy. They rallied their spirits, combined spells, and targeted a large group of Siren harpies trying to cross the coastal defense line.
As everyone knows, these bird-bodied, human-faced monsters could use their singing to charm ordinary people's minds.
Once they entered the city and sang to the defenseless ordinary residents, the consequences would be unthinkable.
At that mont, as spellcasters frantically drained their magic power to intercept through the air, dazzling beams of light pierced the sky, blasting over a dozen low-flying Siren harpies into pieces, scattering across the sky.
However, as relatives of Divine Blood, even if these Siren harpies were degraded products of diluted bloodlines, they still possessed decent intelligence.
Therefore, they imdiately let out plaintive and piercing feminine cries to disrupt the spellcasters' incantations while frantically flapping their wings to gain altitude and dodge the attacks coming from the ground.
In the midst of those successive mournful wails, the spellcasters were struck with splitting headaches, making their ground-to-air offense and suppression falter.
For a ti, a serious gap appeared in the defense circle above the coastline.
Fortunately, at this critical juncture, archers and crossbown on both flanks completed their new round of rest and reloading and shot their arrows just in ti.
Although the damage was minor, this volley succeeded in angering the Siren harpies, causing them to turn their attention to the coastal fortress that kept posing obstacles below.
"Devour them!"
"Kill them!"
"Tear them to pieces!"
The Siren harpies in mid-air cried out in their rage and dove toward the coastal fortress on the ground.
```
The noise mixed with psychic attacks made the heads of the fortress's defenders ache to the point of splitting, and their attacks imdiately slowed down.
And as the aerial firepower coverage weakened, the circling Sirens imdiately seized the opportunity--swooping down in the chaos, grabbing soldiers one by one, and then cruelly rising high before releasing their claws.
The outco of falling from a hundred ters at extre speed can well be imagined.
One by one, the bodies smashed against the city walls, saring them with a ground full of crimson.
Following that, these Sirens even cleverly targeted those spellcasters who posed the greatest threat, hoping to prioritize the extermination of these human artillery while they were ntally exhausted.
"Form shields! Raise spears!"
Seeing the chaos spread further, the Crown Prince imdiately roared, steadying the hearts and minds of everyone, causing the soldiers to instinctively follow the command, forming a tight formation and moving closer to the surrounding spellcasters.
The Sirens, ready to expand their victories, naturally would not just sit back and watch these humans stabilize their formation and imdiately swooped down again.
"Think again!"
Accompanied by a crisp shout, a small purple figure leapt into the air, and with it opened a pair of bronze wings, casting forward through the air.
"Chi chi chi chi!"
Instantaneously, dozens of bronze bird feathers shot out like arrows, breaking through the air and smashing the hearts of more than a dozen Sirens.
Under the power of absolute strength, the formation of the Sirens was thoroughly torn apart, no longer daring to approach the range of that small purple figure.
They abandoned their dense formation, trying to bypass the dangerous presence of the purple-haired young girl, and prepared to encircle her from both flanks to capture and kill the frail ordinary humans behind her.
However, having found a mont to breathe, the fortress's soldiers had already tightened their ranks under the command of the Crown Prince.
Rows of impenetrable round shields and the piercing spears thrusting out from the gaps between them made it so that the swooping Sirens had nowhere to extend their claws. Instead, taken by surprise, two or three of their younger beings below the rank of Gold were impaled and killed.
That the noble Divine Blood kin should fall in the spear forest of their prey was quite ironic.
anwhile, the spellcasters, having regained their composure, saw themselves unhard and after a brief recovery, finally demonstrated their proper role.
For a mont, a variety of ascending Defensive Charms, enhancing auras, and temple Suppression Spells helped to stabilize the situation atop the city walls for their side.
"Damn it!"
"Curse it!"
"Filthy bugs!"
Not only had they failed to gnaw through this tough bone, but they had almost broken their teeth in the attempt. The angry Sirens cursed like shrews as they miserably retreated back to the sea.
"Don't even think about escaping!"
Little dusa in the sky, without a second thought, vibrated her wings, ready to pursue the victory.
"Anna, co back!"
Seeing this reckless action from the girl, Luo En's face changed imdiately, he roared loudly.
Hearing the order from behind, Little dusa, who had just flown out a hundred ters, hesitated and obediently turned around flapping her wings.
"Aaaaaa——!"
However, just as Little dusa turned her head, a high-pitched monosyllabic chant spread from the sea.
In an instant, those who heard this enchanting song had a blank mind, involuntarily laying down their weapons, stepping over the battlents with a stupefied look, and moving forward.
"Goo goo~~!"
Just as the siren song was spreading over the island, a sound like an owl's clear call suddenly rang out, startling those enchanted and entranced by it into sudden wakefulness.
At the sa ti, Luo En, with eyes clear, snatched a spear from a warrior next to him with lightning speed, drawing his body into an exaggerated arc and flinging it forward with all his might.
"Pfft!"
Accompanying the sharp sound of cutting the air, the thrown spear whizzed past the hair on the left side of Little dusa, pinning a purple-red octopus tentacle covered in suckers to the ground in the darkness.
