I am a god in another world

The crossbow car only fired six rounds, and the catapult fired two rounds, and the treeman army successfully advanced to its effective range.

They immediately retracted their steps, and the treemen holding super-large wooden shields focused on defending attacks, while the treemen protected by them stood firm and took a stance, and directly threw the stones in their hands.

There was no special situation of hitting the invisible shield. Because there are too many optional abilities, each mist barrier is different.

Like Misnoel's miasma, there is a mist barrier that isolates everything, but it means giving up the ability to block teleportation and flight.

With a deeper understanding of the mist barrier and the miasma, Gavin discovered that the ancient elven miasma is very special, and its strength is far beyond the miasma imitated by humans using the mist barrier. In the elven language, it means to hide and disappear.

The ancient maze made by the elves, like the other dimension, can cover and hide the entire city or even the region, including various isolations, which are not available in the maze made by humans. They are just spell barriers with special abilities. This should be related to the high cost of the ancient maze made by the elves.

The human mist barrier only needs enough casting materials, while the ancient maze of the elves usually requires the supreme wizards to pay a lot of law magic, and it may even cost their lives, so the power is naturally extraordinary.

The mist barrier of Avanso is nine rings, and can only open three abilities, which are used to prohibit teleportation, prohibit flight, and prohibit invisibility. It has no ability to isolate the inside and outside.

The isolation of the inside and outside of the mist barrier is not the invisible protective shield mode of Misnoel, but as its name suggests, it forms a mist wall for physical isolation, and it is ground-proof but not air-proof, which has great defects. Cities without city walls will consider this option, and cities with city walls generally give priority to abandoning it.

In other words, it could have been taken down with ordinary siege methods from the beginning, but Gavin was unwilling to let the conqueror army suffer huge casualties and was unwilling to attack the city with ants.

For a while, the sound of bombardment on the top of the city was endless, and several crossbows and catapults were silenced on the spot.

The tree people also have advantages that these catapults do not have. They are creatures, and throwing stones is their skill. Their special ability is linked to their professional level and is blessed with a certain magic correction. Coupled with their own skills, their accuracy is terrifyingly high, especially when hitting a large target like a slingshot standing on the top of the city wall. It is not certain that one will hit it once, but one of three or five shots will hit it, which is still guaranteed.

Whether it is a crossbow or a catapult, it is a relatively precise instrument. Whenever a relatively important and precise part is damaged, the machine will immediately stop.

The tree man slingers took advantage of the situation and concentrated their fire on the damaged catapults and crossbows, trying to completely destroy them before they were repaired by magic - complete repair cannot repair crushing damage.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Dozens of red dots rose from the walls of Afasso and flew towards the Treemen Corps. They grew bigger and bigger. When they reached the tops of the Treemen, they were already as big as adults.

Level 3 Fireball.

The casters of Afasso took action, ready to destroy these Treemen with magic heavy artillery.

Compared with the crossbows and catapults, this is their nemesis. Most of the living plants are vulnerable to fire. Even if the fire damage falls on them, it will increase even if it is not extremely effective, and it may even ignite them and burn them alive.

Facing their deadly nemesis, the Treemen Corps did not move at all. Only the two Treemen in the lead raised the super-large wooden shields in their hands high.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

On the battlefield, the unique explosion roar of the fireballs when they landed sounded, but the number was obviously less than what we just saw.

Many people saw clearly that the fireballs that exploded either fell on the super-large wooden shields of the Treemen or on the surrounding open space.

The fireball spell that fell on the center of the treeman squad was like a stone sinking into the sea. It completely extinguished and disappeared with a puff.

Figures flashed and disappeared again under the huge shadow of the treeman.

These treeman squads are not just made up of treemen, each of them hides an extraordinary spellcaster.

What just made these fireball spells ineffective was the fourth-ring spell secondary spell nullification barrier.

This spell can form a magic barrier with a radius of three or four meters with the caster as the center. In this barrier, all spells of the third ring and below are invalid. Even regional spells such as fireball will not affect the inside of the barrier.

The weakness of the treeman is so obvious, and the fireball spell is the most frequently used spell on the battlefield. How could the conqueror army be unprepared?

Boom!

With thunder and lightning, heavy rain fell like pillars, extinguishing all the large wooden shields in the hands of the tree people that were prone to ignition. The tree people holding shields moved their large shields one after another, letting the heavy rain fall on their bodies, soaking them inside and out.

The effect of casting fire magic in a rainstorm will be greatly reduced. It will not only be difficult to ignite the tree people, but also suppress their vulnerable attributes to a certain extent. This is the reason for the attribute restraint.

This rainstorm has a negative impact on the defense equipment of Ivanso on the city wall. The crossbows and slings fired have become soft and weak, because the ropes used to launch crossbows and ammunition have been soaked in water, and the elasticity has been greatly affected.

Of course, this rainstorm could not have fallen out of thin air because of God's favor to the conqueror army.

It was the work of the extraordinary druid.

The seven-ring spell manipulates the weather.

The range of influence of this spell is very wide. Not only the entire battlefield is included, but even most of Avanso is attacked by the rainstorm.

Unlike the temporary secondary spell invalid barrier, this spell was cast twenty minutes ago.

This kind of large-scale spell, especially the spell that affects the weather, requires a long time of deep synchronization with nature before it can be cast, and it takes a while for the spell to take effect.

The magic power of the spell only helps the caster to gather lightning and dark clouds to form rainfall, and it is not that the magic power of the spell is directly converted into rain. If that were the case, the consumption would be too great - spells that violate the laws of nature are all high-cost and half the result with twice the effort.

If it follows the laws of nature, it will be twice the result with half the effort.

This also leads to the fact that the final effect of this spell is linked to the local environment and weather.

You can't always expect the effect to be the same when cast in the desert and the sea.

Avonso is a coastal city. In the summer, the air humidity is very high. A slight disturbance will naturally turn into a heavy rain. If it were the Great Desert of Enorok, a light rain that lasted for several minutes would be considered a great honor.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Dozens of red light balls shot down from the walls of Avonso.

This time, the tree people did not dare to neglect it. Some of them put up their shields and locked the red light balls with their stones.

The same loss should not be suffered twice by the spellcasters of Avonso. These red light balls are definitely not fireballs.

It is a seven-ring spell, Firestorm.

The extraordinary spellcasters of Avonso took action, also using a weak version of Fireball, but because its spell level is too high, it cannot be denied by the spell nullification barrier.

This is the suppression from the level.

It is like the effect of a fourteenth-level extraordinary wizard taking action, which can match dozens of six or seven-level middle and low-level spellcasters taking action at the same time.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The fireballs and stones collided in the air, causing them to explode in advance. This method of breaking physical attacks was effective.

However, in the air, hitting such a moving target was like hitting a lucky jackpot. Only three or five of them were detonated in advance, and most of them flew to the target.

Less than one-third of them actually caused damage. The rest either flew off the target or were blocked by the super-large wooden shield and exploded on top.

The rainstorm took effect, and the power of the firestorm was suppressed to a certain extent. After causing 30 to 40 points of fire shock damage to the tree people in the explosion range, they were submerged by the rain.

If it weren't for this rainstorm, the fire shock damage could at least double. Even for the tree people, 70 to 80 points of damage was already quite amazing.

"Crossbows ready, fire."

"Archers ready, fire."

The conqueror army naturally couldn't let Ivanso's mages bombard indiscriminately, and began to provide fire cover for the tree people.

The tower-type chariot has been pushed into the range of the archers, and the crossbows and archers on it are firing at the same time.

Thousands of arrows covered the top of the city wall of Evanso.

The treeman slingers rushed to bombard the crossbows and catapults of Evanso.

Before the second fire storm fell, the treeman army had completed the first round of raids and destroyed all the crossbows and catapults on this section of the city wall.

Because there was no threat from crossbows and catapults, they retreated very quickly and dispersed enough.

If the fire storm fell again, the lethality would be further reduced.

The extraordinary spellcaster seemed to see through this, so he did not cast the second fire storm.

After a little repair, the treeman army pressed up again, along this section of the city wall, to expand the results of the battle to both sides.

This is the consequence of losing the initiative on the battlefield. The conqueror army can fight when they want to and retreat when they want to.

The damage you caused last time is useless in the new round of battle, because during the time they retreated to repair, these tree people repaired their injuries by taking root and regenerating.

"Despicable, shameless, bastard..."

"Arms is a devil, they actually did such evil things."

"Retreat, quickly withdraw the tree army, if we continue to fight, it will cause a large number of casualties among ordinary citizens of Evanso, and it will be meaningless even if we take Evanso."

"But once we do this, Evanso's evil plan will succeed, and they will go further and apply this trick to all aspects. We can't tie our hands and feet just for the sake of these citizens, how can we fight this battle?"

"Too despicable, too shameless..."

The next scene on the wall of Evanso made the conqueror army who saw the situation above curse from top to bottom, but the other side's means were more insidious and vicious than they imagined.

Seeing that they could not resist the indiscriminate bombardment of the Treemen Corps, they drove a group of pale-faced citizens of Ivanso to the top of the city and gathered around the catapults and crossbows.

While destroying these catapults and crossbows, they would also kill a large number of citizens of Ivanso.

Gavin and his men came with the banner of justice. If they ignored the lives of the citizens of Ivanso, they would be labeling themselves as evil and associating with the necromancers of Ivanso.

"Let the Treemen Corps withdraw temporarily." Gavin ordered with a gloomy face.

"This is not entirely a bad thing. The more we show that we care about the lives of the citizens of Afonso, the less likely they will start the transformation ritual and kill all the residents of Afonso." Veronica consoled beside him.

"I know, I'm just disgusted by the mean means of this group of evil people." Gavin nodded and asked, "Is there any news from Susie?"

"I was just about to report this to the Lord. The news conveyed by Grace is true. There is indeed a secret passage leading directly to the Afonso Underground City in that abandoned warehouse. What should we do now?" Veronica replied.

"If you want to act, you have to do it in full." Gavin turned his eyes to Catherine and said, "Madam, I hope you can lead the team in person and lead the Goliath Corps to raid the Afonso Underground City from the secret passage. Whether it is a trap or not, try to delay their elite troops for a while. The road will be left to you."

The Goliath Corps is not the best choice for breaking in from underground, because their size is easily restricted there.

The hobgoblin giants simply couldn't get in. Not all dwarf cities were built as magnificently and tall as the dwarf statue city. Most of them were built according to the standard of medium-sized humans, between two and a half and three meters.

It would be a bit difficult for Goliath to go deep down, not to mention the hobgoblin giants.

In fact, the paladins led by Daniel and the Tempus believers led by Eldan were the best candidates.

But the enemies of Avanso knew where their elite troops were. If the Goliath regiment did not appear, but the originally unknown extraordinary regiment, they would be shocked and would launch a trap that would hurt both sides in advance.

As for letting Catherine lead the team personally, of course, she wanted to use her legendary combat power and command ability to ensure that even if it was a trap, the other party would not be able to easily eat them.

"Okay." Catherine agreed readily, "I will launch the attack on time from the secret passage in an hour."

She had already guessed what Gavin wanted to do next, but she saw through it but didn't say it.

After Catherine teleported away and prepared to launch a sneak attack from the secret passage, the Conqueror Army led by Gavin was not idle either. They made full use of their troops and launched a new round of spells and tactics with the extraordinary wizards on the walls of Afonso.

The focus of both sides was the wall section where all the city defense equipment was destroyed by the Treeman Corps.

After the Treeman Corps withdrew, Gavin directly ordered the building chariots to advance towards this section of the wall, as if escorting his army to seize the wall.

Without catapults and crossbows, let alone ordinary bows and arrows, even fireballs would have relatively limited damage to them. The twenty building chariots charging in the front had been specially waterproofed and hung with external thickened armor.

Not to mention, it was not only Afonso that had spellcasters. There were also many spellcasters in the Conqueror Army.

There are not only kobold warlocks, but also fey druids, Tethyr battlefield mages, and orthodox mages like the female mages of the Roinhern family.

As the size of the Conqueror's army began to grow, its reputation became more and more, and more and more people came to join it, including those low-level wandering mages.

Using their own spellcasting ability to exchange for more growth resources from those powerful rulers is a shortcut for the growth of these low-level mages.

Among the many mercenaries on the Dragon Coast, there are many spellcasters, and they are naturally the priority recruitment targets of the Conqueror's army.

Most of these spellcasters are low-level spellcasters who have not reached the extraordinary level, especially those low-level spellcasters who have not yet opened the third-ring spellcasting ability. At this time, they are the most embarrassing time. Whether it is the spell variety or the spell power, they are very unsatisfactory, far less useful than the wielding sword and longbow, and are very unpopular with the mercenary group.

It's not that those mercenaries are short-sighted and don't know the huge value hidden in the spellcasters, especially those who have been trained by themselves.

However, the precarious life of mercenaries made them only able to focus on the present, and it was difficult for them to have the energy to think about the future. If they chose a weak and low-level mage as a teammate and let themselves die in the mission, what future could they talk about?

Not to mention an individual, even most small mercenary groups do not have the remaining financial resources to train their own spellcasters, it is better to directly hire ready-made ones.

Under the pressure of the conqueror army, the spellcasters in the city of Afasso could only compete with them in spells, especially the few extraordinary spellcasters who were the main force.

They cast the fire wall spell directly in front of the wall of Afasso, trying to destroy and block the real estate chariot with the fire wall.

The spellcasters of the conqueror army directly cast an ice wall spell of the same fourth ring on the original position of the fire wall spell.

The spell effects of the two spells will be directly offset, and an effect similar to the magic removal will appear.

Not only the fire wall spell and the ice wall spell, but many spells of the same ring with opposite attributes have the ability to restrain and offset each other.

For example, plant growth and plant withering, holy residence and evil residence, darkness and illumination, etc.

In desperation, the extraordinary spellcaster used the same trick again, trying to destroy the building chariot with a fire storm.

The conqueror army ignored them. Not to mention that the rainstorm was still continuing, even if there was no rainstorm, these fireballs would not be able to ignite the building chariot. The external armor added on it was not made of wood, but was repeatedly coated with mud and turned into stone using stone shaping. It not only increased a certain degree of resistance to impact, but was mainly fireproof.

The failure of the magic confrontation directly fed back to the army's advance. The tower-type chariot was getting closer and closer to the wall of Afasso, so close that standing on the chariot, one could directly see the situation on the wall of Afasso.

Countless Afasso crossbowmen, under the supervision of a group of undead, were transporting crossbows and catapults from other areas to this side - such complex war tools could not be used by those brainless undead, and they could only drive the citizens of Afasso.

The wall was even more crowded with skeletons, zombies, ghosts and other low-level undead soldiers, ready to welcome the rush from the conqueror army.

"The gate-breaking team is out."

The conqueror army has a new move.

A dozen shield-bearing tree men rushed out first, holding super shields, and rushed towards the gate of Afasso not far away.

Following closely behind them were two giant elephant tree men, dragging behind them a road-rolling iron column weighing hundreds of tons. The only difference was that the road-rolling iron column was no longer a road-rolling device.

It was a giant cart with sixteen wheels, and the road roller was installed vertically on it, directly turning into a battering ram.

Under the drag of the two giant tree men, it rumbled towards the gate of Afantsuo.

The commander of the Afantsuo defense was so nervous that he probably started to curse in his heart.

The opponent did not move out earlier or later, but just when he was pulling some of the crossbow carts and catapults to the siege point of the tower chariot. Now it was too late to withdraw or continue to move to the destination.

Although the crossbow carts and catapults were ordered to shoot crazily, the casters cast spells regardless of consumption.

Still unable to stop the opponent's crazy advancement, most of the damage was blocked by the shield-holding tree man, and the spells that hindered the advancement or caused more damage to the tree man were neutralized or removed, and the small ones were ignored.
