Chapter 488

Chapter 488: One-Sided?

"We are not controlled by spiritual magic; it seems you do not want to talk." The leading noble took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Originally, I didn’t think it would be possible to reason with you. Your thinking is too outdated; you have long lost your humanity. The only way to change you is through bloody lessons. Attack!"

At his command, the soldiers behind him decisively raised their guns and shot towards the direction of Winter Fortress.

Bang! Bang! Bang…

Bullets shot towards Easley, but Peter stood in front of him and called forth a shield.

[Name: Shield of the North]

[Category: Spell]

[Star Level: 8]

[Grade: Blue Rare]

[Occupational Restriction: Warrior]

[Description: The colder the weather, the stronger this shield becomes.]

Seeing those people were really willing to fight, Easley sneered and shouted, "Capture those young ones alive, and kill the rest!"

These young people can be left alive to negotiate with their families.

Sparing their lives is also showing kindness.

Facing these people, Easley did not take them seriously at all. Instead, after giving orders, he took out the Magic Stone and told the people inside to keep an eye on the Crown Prince.

These people truly weren’t worth Easley’s attention; the gap between both sides was just too large.

They were attacking the Winter Fortress, the strongest defense in all of Presea.

You could say that even if the entire army of Canglang Province came here, without Karoso, they might not be able to capture Winterfell City!

Soon, the gates of the Winter Fortress swung open, and a group of warriors charged towards those young nobles.

"Don’t hold back! Even if everyone dies today, we must make our voices heard! We will let all the common people in this world know that someone is willing to fight for them! We will tell adventurers that they should no longer be exploited! The blood we shed today is for their freedom, for their dignity! Today, we will use our lives to awaken those who are numb!" shouted the noble at the front, summoning his followers.

[Introduction: When he appears, it means there are endless possibilities.]

Suddenly, a young man in a black magic robe appeared beside the noble, holding a magic wand, and a bolt of lightning shot towards the charging soldiers.

Peter jumped in front of the lightning.

Boom!

With a flash of lightning, his shield remained completely unharmed.

Swish, swish, swish…

Cards that supported the dark sorcerer were thrown out one by one, making the sorcerer’s magic grow stronger.

Peter let out a cold laugh; the difference between seventh-tier and eighth-tier was a gap that couldn’t be crossed.

He braved the magic and rushed forward.

Several seventh-tier spellcasters unleashed their Spell Cards at the same time, and beams of light struck Peter’s shield, preventing him from moving forward.

"Take down Easley!" the leader shouted.

The soldiers they brought split into two groups and charged towards the walls of the Winter Fortress on both sides.

"What a farce." Easley scoffed; he didn’t even bother to hide, let alone run away.

The soldiers defending the Winter Fortress were holding fire guns, aiming down below, and the cannons on the gun platforms were ready.

Not just these, there were also some wizard watchtowers, where sixth-tier wizards stood.

Don’t think that sixth-tier wizards are weak; on the battlefield, they are like moving cannons!

At least, they are enough to deal with these people.

"Spread out!"

The noble young man charging towards the city wall quickly commanded the soldiers.

Boom, boom…

The sound of cannonballs was deafening, and the shells exploded in the crowd.

Many people were blown apart, and the attack was momentarily halted.

These are the brave warriors they worked hard to train; otherwise, this wave could have defeated them!

"Fire!" The commander on the city wall ordered decisively when he saw the enemy was within range.

The soldiers on the wall looked down and fired powerful bullets at the soldiers below.

Bang, bang, bang…

One soldier after another fell to the ground.

"Forward! We have no way to retreat, everyone, move forward!" A young noble waved a sword summoned by his card and leaped toward a cannon.

Boom!

A Magic Cannonball hit him, and his armor shattered; if he hadn’t used two stacked Spell Cards at the right moment, he would have been killed.

Bang!

The boy fell heavily to the ground.

"Damn it, didn’t I tell you to capture them alive?" Easley shouted.

The person on the city wall directing the battle became much more serious.

How many people are there in ten thousand?

In ancient times, ten thousand attacking a city was a grand display, more than enough to take a small city.

But this is not a small city; this world is not an ordinary world, but one filled with magic and cards.

Wizards of the sixth tier at each cannon raised their magic wands to cast their ice magic.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Frozen Arrows shot down mercilessly at the soldiers below, pinning many of them to the ground.

[Description: A powerful fire magic that sweeps everything away like a storm.]

Boom!

A wave of heat turned hundreds of people into dry corpses in an instant.

Out of ten thousand, more than seventy percent fell in less than two minutes.

"Stop it right now!"

At that moment, a voice came from a distance.

Easley looked up and focused his gaze.

He saw Teresa wearing armor and holding a great sword, flying towards them, shouting, "Everyone, stop!"

The noble boys were also a bit shocked when they saw Teresa, and they really slowed down.

Not just them, Easley raised his right hand to signal his people to stop.

After all, they had to show some respect to Teresa.

Teresa’s purpose in coming was to question Easley and to make him change his ways; she was not yet focused on competing for the throne.

However, her lack of intention did not mean others had none.

Just when both sides were getting ready to stop fighting and have a good talk, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky!

Snap, snap…

The crack was right above the square in front of the Winter Fortress, and it kept getting bigger.

Boom!

The crack burst open with a loud noise, and a huge black figure fell out of the crack.

Everyone looked up in disbelief and saw that behind the crack was an endless sea of red, as if souls were crying out in pain.

Bang!

The black figure shrank a bit when it came to this world, but it still stood tall in the center of the square, right between the two sides that were fighting.

"This is…" The noble boy in front opened his eyes wide.

"What the heck?" Easley was also confused.

Whoosh!

A ray of light shot out from the crack, carrying the original flame, and struck Winter Fortress!
