Chapter 151: Chapter 106: Breaching the Large City, an Unexpectedly Great Harvest
WHOOSH~
After retracting the twenty Defense Towers, Shen Fei remotely controlled the Teleportation Gate Tower far away in Qing City. With a SWISH, he used a spare Teleportation Gate to transport himself to the side of the battlefield.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Instantly appearing 50 kilometers away, Shen Fei waved his hand again, setting down twenty Defense Towers and launching another attack.
TRUMPET~ TRUMPET~ TRUMPET~
Having been faked out, the herd of War Elephants made a wide turn and charged furiously toward Shen Fei again. Their bodies were now glowing with a red light, fueled by their rage.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Unfortunately for them, with the Teleportation Gate Tower at his beck and call, Shen Fei was impossible to catch. With three consecutive teleports, he employed hit-and-run tactics, leading the War Elephant herd on a wild goose chase across the battlefield. They couldn’t touch him.
BOOM!
After this series of maneuvers, the City Shield ahead was already more than half depleted. Just as Shen Fei was about to press his advantage and shatter that "turtle shell," another army suddenly rushed out from the city gates.
Giants! Standing a full ten-plus meters tall, massive phalanxes formed of countless Giants charged out from the four city gates. At their waists, the Giants carried enormous Beast Hide Bags.
Before Shen Fei could even react, the Giants pulled watermelon-sized Raw Stones from their Beast Hide Bags and hurled them at him from a distance.
SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!
There was a ten-thousand-strong unit of Stone-Throwing Giants at each of the four city gates. Facing tens of thousands of whistling Raw Stones crashing down, Shen Fei’s teleportation tactic was instantly countered. The moment he teleported, thousands of head-sized Raw Stones would come whistling down on him.
Not only would a single hit be enough to break his bones, but more importantly, the Defense Towers beside him couldn’t withstand more than a few hits either. They would quickly run out of durability.
"Fish Net Tower!!"
Faced with this situation, Shen Fei could no longer focus solely on the enemy’s Shield. He had no choice but to retract one Defense Tower and deploy another.
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Countless nets, each with a radius of a hundred meters, were shot out by the newly deployed Defense Tower. The massive fish nets unfurled, blanketing the area in front of Shen Fei. The Raw Stones thrown by the Giants were temporarily blocked. And with the Fish Net Towers providing cover, Shen Fei had enough time to squeeze in another attack before moving to a new location.
While Shen Fei was dodging, the pale-faced man flying in mid-air was also rapidly evading the golden arrows being shot at him. On the city walls now stood a group of strange archer NPCs clad in Golden Armor, looking like descendants of Hou Yi. They were few in number, but the arrows they loosed were like pillars of golden light, slowing the pale-faced man’s assault on the Shield.
WHOOSH~
With the War Elephant herd and the Stone-Throwing Giants running interference, the frequency of Shen Fei’s attacks on the Shield had also dropped significantly. However, thanks to the Teleportation Gate Tower allowing him to switch positions at will, his own safety was never in question.
ZING! ZING! ZING!
Suddenly, the battlefield changed once again. Shen Fei’s attack speed on the Shield had indeed slowed, but he himself hadn’t taken a single point of damage. Just then, on the defensive walls of Yang City, another group of special Warriors appeared.
Their hair was styled into towering topknots. They were only about 1.5 or 1.6 meters tall, but their hair, styled like a hat, reached a height of nearly two meters. Even more peculiar, their eyes were protruding, bulging a full ten centimeters from their sockets.
ZING! ZING! ZING!
After the thousand-odd Warriors with protruding eyes and high topknots appeared, they pressed their hands to their temples. Their heads turned like scanning probes to lock onto Shen Fei as he controlled his Defense Towers. Then, to Shen Fei’s astonishment, their bulging eyes fired off incredibly powerful, laser-like attacks. Countless ’laser beams’ shot fiercely toward him.
"What the hell!"
I can’t believe they have an attack like this. I have no idea where these Warriors with protruding eyes and high topknots came from.
All Shen Fei could do was quickly step into the Teleportation Gate behind him, dodging the eye-laser attack.
"Reflection Tower!!"
Stepping out of the Teleportation Gate once more, Shen Fei faced the thousand-plus laser-like eye beams. With a SWISH, he deployed a Defense Tower specialized in defending against light-based attacks.
BZZZT! BZZZT! BZZZT!
It worked! Reflected by the polished surface of the Reflection Tower, the eye-lasers were sent bouncing straight toward the War Elephant Array that was rumbling across the battlefield.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ignoring the chaos the deflected eye-lasers were causing among the War Elephant Array, Shen Fei once again commanded his Defense Towers to bombard the City Shield. He hadn’t forgotten his objective.
-490,000
-490,000
-490,000
Another few massive hits landed. Shen Fei saw that the 10,000,000 HP of Yang City’s Shield was finally down to just 2,000,000. Four more hits, and he could reliably destroy the Shield, then find the Heart of the City and unleash a powerful bombardment.
A large city is a large city, after all.
Previously, when facing a medium-sized city, deploying the maximum of twenty mobile Defense Towers with the help of the pale-faced man would have been enough to break through in less than a minute. But now, facing the only large city, he had already been fighting for nearly three minutes, yet the City Shield still had a fair portion of its health remaining.
Large cities are really something else!
WHOOSH~
Though he was marveling internally, Shen Fei’s actions didn’t stop. Using the Teleportation Gate’s rapid movement to adjust his position again, he waved his hand and once more set down his Defense Towers.
