Rumble~
The entire city, stretching for hundreds to thousands of kilometers, kept shaking.
On the wide avenues, the citizens were initially driving their demonic puppets normally, but they got distracted, their minds scattered, causing the demonic puppets to crash into the front or side of the road.
Bang! Bang!
A series of demonic puppet collisions erupted with blue arcane brilliance, leaking out like a short-circuited electric wire, crackling.
Some collisions were particularly severe, resulting in explosions.
Fire and thick smoke shot into the sky.
Causing a series of traffic accidents.
A row of houses on the street dropped goods amid the tremors, coincidentally hitting some pedestrians, who screamed in pain.
All the citizens showed panic-stricken faces and couldn't help but shout.
"What's going on? What happened? Why is there an earthquake?"
"This is one of the Five Great Cities of the Toria Arcane Empire; earthquakes shouldn't even be possible!"
"Isn't this supposed to be the safest place in the world?"
"Quick! Look at the sky! Over at the barrier!"
Someone shouted, their face filled with fear, pointing at the spot in the sky where the barrier was.
Outside.
Hundreds of red light beams roamed over the barrier, causing intense vibrations! Waving like water, almost obscuring the view outside!
The barrier sizzled, emitting large clouds of smoke!
All the citizens were horrified at this sight:
"This! Is someone attacking our city?"
"My God! This is insane! Who could be so ignorant!"
"Are those fools outside crazy? How dare they attack the great Toria Arcane Empire? Are they not afraid of death, or something worse than death?"
"Where's the arcane army! Where are the arcane army people?
Hurry! Hurry and get rid of those reckless fools who dare to challenge the Empire!"
"Everyone, stay calm! Our Defense Barrier is impossible to break! This is the Five Directions Barrier, capable of withstanding several spells of the Eleventh Ring without collapsing.
It absorbs energy from the Five Elements within the entire city as its power source.
As long as the five Mage Towers, the core of the formation, are intact, no matter how strong the attack from outside, we are safe!
Relax! Everyone, relax!"
Some citizens shouted, while some arcane masters broadcast their voices far and wide to reassure the populace.
Close to the central area.
The liaison sent by Dorlan Star watched solemnly as hundreds of terrifying red beams descended from the sky:
"The attack has come... Even after warnings, they've brought the flames of war here.
Yet the Toria Arcane Empire is indeed powerful, the city's barrier can even withstand such terrifying attacks…
If this level of attack were to hit any city on Dorlan Star, it might not even take a minute to completely destroy the city."
Rumble...
The ground still trembled incessantly.
Woo woo woo, sirens began to sound, and a crimson light flickered in the sky.
At this moment, swarms of arcane masters appeared all over the city, riding magic carpets, swarming toward the city's edges!
Reaching the city walls, they stepped onto small teleportation arrays, one after another disappearing.
Appearing outside the defense barrier.
Just as this group instinctively flew skyward to assess the situation.
Hundreds of red beams suddenly twisted, shifted direction, and swept toward them at incredible speed!
Most arcane masters couldn't react in time.
Their standard defensive equipment instantly shattered! Their entire bodies, flesh, and bone, were vaporized! Vanished!
Perhaps the only proof they ever existed was the wisps of smoke gently rising through the flame pillar…
Thick beams raged violently.
Effortlessly carving trenches at least seven or eight meters deep and a meter wide on the ground!
Inside these trenches, the soil was melted into magma-like substance, glowing red and emitting waves of heat...
And this was merely the result of a momentary sweep by the terrifying flame pillar.
Some of the stronger arcane masters managed to dodge the first wave of beams with some tricks, but they couldn't withstand the second, or third wave.
They were overwhelmed, and with the slightest mistake, they would be wiped out instantly!
The first group sent out didn't last even a few seconds before they were utterly annihilated.
Two groups, three groups, four groups, five groups.
At least tens of thousands of arcane masters, having just left the city's barrier and without grasping the situation, were destroyed one by one.
This made the people inside realize something was amiss, and the enemy's strength.
The high-ranking military figure immediately halted such suicidal sorties, shouting:
"Anyone below the strength of an advanced professional, stay inside! Help calm the populace!! Legends! Now is our time to step in! Join me and fight our way out!"
An elder, clad in a gold-embroidered blue magic robe, shouted, his body flickered several times, arriving at the wall's edge.
Vanishing without a trace.
He appeared outside the barrier, instantly understanding why several batches of the arcane army didn't even manage to send back a message before being annihilated!
He looked outside the city.
Within a radius of more than ten kilometers, terrifying trenches crisscrossed everywhere, an expanse of red smoke almost obscuring the sky.
Dense and thick red beams targeted the instant the elder appeared!
The elder in the magic robe's expression was grim, as a legend, he was far beyond what ordinary arcane masters could compare to!
