Chapter 1519: Perseverance and Ending
"Xuan Ji, no matter what, you must hold on until the golden sky above your head completely closes!"
Facing the murderous intent approaching rapidly, Lei Xiao held the sword across his chest with one hand and raised the magic stone staff with the other hand. Dense and dazzling lightning bolts fell from the sky, forming a bright purple magic light curtain, bombarding the parasites led by the fishman.
In the bright purple light curtain of lightning and thunder, there were also visible arcs of lightning surging around. This was the product of the combination of [Five-Layer Thunderfall Technique] and [Lightning Arc Explosion] with the blessing of [Thunder Sky Attraction].
As Lei Xiao became more and more proficient in using these thunder spells, with the assistance of the sixth-level divine stone staff, he not only skipped the chanting step, but was also able to combine the two spells to a certain extent.
As lightning filled the sky, elemental bullets shot out like a string of cannonballs wherever Xuanji's staff was pointing, forming a sharp barrage that also landed on the opponent's path.
However, even though Lei Xiao and Xuan Ji's long-range attacks were very impressive, the opponent was, after all, a powerful half-step seventh-level warrior. They scattered like ghosts in an instant. Only the leading fish-man possessed creature could take a few moves and was temporarily knocked away by Xuan Ji's elemental bullet.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the expressionless Peter's sword changed into thousands of trajectories, first stabbing towards Lei Xiao and the shining magic prism behind him!
"Senro Slash!"
Facing the opponent's fierce attacks like a storm, Lei Xiao's magic stone sword drew a dense silver web, blocking all the attacks.
Although the opponent in front of him had just been parasitized and his movements were still a little stiff, he was an agile and powerful man after all, and his speed was amazing. At least for a short period of time, he was enough to hold Lei Xiao back.
Just when Lei Xiao and Peter were fighting fiercely, the other two newly arrived possessed beings, one on the left and one on the right, bypassed Lei Xiao and the other two and attacked directly towards the magic prism.
At this critical moment, burly figures holding huge shields stood in front of the two opponents. They were the "Holy Judges" in shining golden armor.
Taking advantage of the gap in the opponent's attack, Lei Xiao summoned a number of new "Holy Judges", and together with the remaining ones, they protected the magic prism together.
But the speed of the golem puppets was always too limited, and it was impossible for them to keep up with the enemy's pace. In desperation, Lei Xiao had to let Xuan Ji go and restrain them, and only then did he barely restrain the opponent, making it impossible for the two to get close to the magic prism at all.
Seeing that Lei Xiao and the other two had stopped the attacks of so many parasites, Old Booker and Curry, who were on their way, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, there are still a few seconds before the entire sky closes. As long as they can hold on until then, even these unscrupulous half-step seventh-level parasites will be greatly suppressed, causing their strength to drop sharply!
Just when hope was rekindled in Booker and Curry's hearts, they were interrupted by a burst of crazy laughter.
"Hehehe, let's see who can stop me!"
The last bear-man possessed person showed a playful look on his face, swung a huge sword and descended from the sky, slashing straight at the magic prism that had no defense anymore!
"Oh no, all our efforts will fail!"
Seeing this, Booker and Curry's eyes widened, looking anxious as if they were willing but unable to do anything.
They were still quite a distance away from the magic prism. Even if they tried their best to attack, they would not be able to block the opponent's falling sword in time!
Looking at the giant sword getting closer and closer, the two of them were almost hoarse, and the hope that had just been revealed in their eyes had turned into uncontrollable despair.
Once the center of the formation is destroyed at this moment, the other fulcrums that have been formed will also fall apart, and even cause a violent magic explosion, turning everything into nothing!
By then, it will be impossible to deploy such a huge extermination array again, and the enemy will never give us a second chance!
"Don't worry, it doesn't have the ability to shake the center of the formation."
Just when the old city lord and the last divine stone general were in despair, Lei Xiao's calm voice came through the magic communication.
As Lei Xiao finished his words, the unstoppable giant sword was already within reach of the magic prism.
Just as the giant sword emitting terrifying power was about to fall on the magic prism, a colorful and translucent defensive barrier suddenly emerged and blocked the two.
boom!
With a loud bang that shook the earth, the sharp edge of the giant sword collided fiercely with the thick wall of the barrier, causing a violent gust of energy that swept towards the surroundings.
When the strong wind dissipated, the barrier wall was still intact.
"This is……?!"
After seeing this scene, not only the bear-man possessed person, but also Booker, Curry and others all had expressions of disbelief.
However, the former's ferocious face soon became distorted with anger, while the latter became extremely excited. This was obviously a defensive measure that the brave man had prepared long ago!
Just as Booker and others thought, this was indeed what Lei Xiao had prepared long ago.
When the Extinction Array Scroll was activated at the beginning, Lei Xiao had actually quietly deployed this seventh-level defense scroll. As for where it came from, it was naturally upgraded from the reserves of Guanwang City.
"However, I only have this one seventh-level defense scroll, and it is only effective for a very short time. After the powerful attack from the enemy, the effective time will be further shortened. I hope I can hold out until the magic sky curtain is completely closed."
Lei Xiao didn't have time to think about anything else. The sword in Peter's hand cut through the space, and the fatal strike was coming again with a whistling sound.
"There is no time left. We must smash this garbage array center to pieces at all costs!"
As all this happened in the blink of an eye, the leading Centaur roared when he saw his attack was blocked, and dense energy arrows shot out again.
As the Centaur Creature roared, the defeated Bear Creature, after several unsuccessful attacks, simply threw away its giant sword and charged forward with its huge body covered with crystal clusters, roaring.
boom!
After another earth-shattering bang, although the energy barrier around the bear-man possessed was smashed to pieces, the originally smooth and flat wall of the barrier also showed obvious cracks, and it was only one step away from collapse.
This is not over yet. After the collision, the bear-man possessed creature had a ferocious look on his face. Without waiting for the energy barrier to condense into shape again, he pounced towards the barrier wall again like a mountain falling down.
"Stop it!"
At this moment, Old Booker and Curry were already ready for long-range attacks. Dense holy light bullets and energy arrows shot out at once, blasting towards the bear-man possessed.
"Hahaha, it's too late. You will all die without a burial place!"
Just before the two men's blocking attack came, the bear-man possessed with a ferocious face had successfully rushed up the cracked barrier wall.
With a loud bang, the crumbling barrier wall was finally shattered. Afterwards, although the bear-man possessed was blown away by the attack of Old Booker and the other man, it was still a step too late, and the magic prism was exposed to everyone again.
"The ant's defense has collapsed, destroy the center of the formation!"
Before the leading Centaur had even finished his words, long-range attacks mixed with arrows and magical power had already come flooding in again!
"Look, look at mine!"
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, the shaky Jasmine used her staff to support her body, and once again forcibly opened the space crack, once again directing all her attacks into the void space.
But in the next second, another extremely agile figure took the opportunity to break through the defense circle of Lei Xiao and others and attacked directly towards the exposed magic prism. It was the fish-man possessed who was repelled at the beginning.
"Hahaha, I succeeded!"
Along with the wild laughter of the fish-man possessed, it and the halberd transformed into a sharp silver light, just a stone's throw away from the magic prism!
At this moment, no matter whether it was Lei Xiao who was fighting fiercely with Peter, the crumbling Jasmine, or Xuan Ji who was restraining two enemies together with a group of golem puppets, or Old Booker and Curry who had just knocked away the bear-man possessed, it was too late for them to react.
At this critical moment, Lei Xiao only felt a shadow flash past in front of his eyes, and heard a loud sound of energy from the collision of weapons. The shadow actually stopped the unstoppable fish-man possessed creature.
As all this happened in a flash, everyone looked closely and found that the shadow was none other than the old General Peter, who had just been fighting fiercely with Lei Xiao!
Peter's old face was filled with determination in his lifeless eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't even think about it. Guanwang City will never be destroyed by you!"
While speaking, Peter's eyes began to switch back and forth between being full and lifeless. The old face that had just revealed a resolute look was now filled with extreme pain, and it was obvious that he was desperately struggling against some existence in his body.
"It was your extinction formation that suppressed the "eclipse" that had been parasitic in the old general's body for a while, allowing the old general to regain a bit of sanity!"
Old Booker's eyes lit up and he blurted out.
At this moment, there is only one step left before the entire magic sky curtain is completely closed!
"The old troublemaker is not dead yet!"
After being forcibly stopped by Peter, the fish-man possessed creature flew into a rage, not caring about the "corrosion" in the former's body, and launched a fierce attack towards the former!
"My Lord, I'll take care of this place!"
Peter gritted his teeth and yelled at Lei Xiao even though he was at an absolute disadvantage.
Before he could finish his words, three newly arrived Half-Step Seventh-Level Devourers came from all directions, aiming directly at the magic prism in the center.
Since the three opponents were extremely tricky and fast, the exhausted Lei Xiao tried his best but could only meet one of them, while Booker and Curry on the other side didn't even aim at the angle of their opponents.
The speed of the opponent's attack has exceeded the speed of the magic sky curtain closing.
"Let's see how you guys can turn things around this time!"
The leading centaur had a ferocious look on his face, and his roar echoed throughout the entire temple area.
However, a turning point soon emerged.
Just when the two newly arrived parasites were advancing with great momentum, another two figures arrived halfway and collided directly with the former, forcibly intercepting them. The four figures hugged each other in two balls, rolling and struggling on the ground, and instantly fell into hand-to-hand combat, stirring up dust all over the sky.
The two figures who showed up halfway were none other than Amanda and another parasitic general of the Divine Stone!
"Your Excellency the Brave One is desperately trying his best to win the last glimmer of hope for this city. Although General Shenshi is still alive, how can we allow the enemy to run rampant?!"
The two of them looked the same as Peter. Despite the extreme pain, they still bit their lips and teeth hard, forcing themselves to maintain their last bit of sanity.
The next moment, the entire magical sky curtain finally closed completely, covering the entire Guanwang City, and reflecting holy and bright light everywhere.
As the glittering magic sky became brighter, this time, not only the ordinary "Eclipses" and the parasites, but even those unscrupulous half-step seventh-level parasites were all listless, obviously greatly weakened and suppressed.
As for the sixth-level parasites present, many of them even fell to the ground in pain, completely losing their initial arrogance and contempt.
"Comrades, the time for counterattack has come. Kill all the invading enemies!"
Old Booker raised his staff high, and his old and high-spirited voice quickly spread throughout the city.
Lei Xiao and others were naturally not idle either, and they attacked the enemies in front of them head-on.
After the enemy's strength was greatly weakened, and the three parasitic divine stone generals temporarily regained their sanity, under the influence of the weakening of the two, even though Lei Xiao and others were already at the end of their strength, they still managed to beat the enemy and make them flee in disarray, with screams and curses coming one after another.
The originally extremely hard crystal cluster soon collapsed under the attack of the divine stone weapon. The fishmen and other parasites that had been so rampant just now were also quickly wiped out. Only a sticky black liquid was left on the ground, which was rapidly melting away with a "sizzling" sound.
"Ants, next time you will be..."
Before the leading Centaur could finish his words, he was covered by a flash of lightning that fell from the sky.
When the lightning faded away, the stinking black pus was seen flowing on the scorched ground.
After clearing out the parasites in the Great Temple area, Lei Xiao, Old Booker and others did not stop, and soon worked together with the soldiers in other areas to wipe out the remaining "Eclipse" and parasites in the city.
During this process, Lei Xiao also described the experience of his group to Old Booker and others.
When they learned about a series of thrilling events that happened to Lei Xiao after he was trapped in the opponent's fake underground fortress, and finally returned here through the void space, Old Booker and others were surprised, and they were filled with emotion and trembling in their hearts.
Even in such a critical situation, the brave man still turned the tide and saved this crumbling city from the brink of destruction!
If the brave hero had not deployed the extermination array at the critical moment, how could this city that was about to be destroyed see the dawn of victory?
Just as Old Booker and others were feeling deeply moved, the reminder sounded in Lei Xiao's ears.
[Respected Lord Lei Xiao, congratulations on successfully defending the city and completing 002398 "Lord Trial"! ] (End of this chapter)
