Rebecca, Arnold, Lowry, Angel and Ryan, five young men with heavy responsibilities, suspended in the high air invisibly, holding their breath, silently watching the four rapidly falling "Steel Cubes".
The strong wind whistled in their ears, but the sound of the wind could not suppress each other's violent heartbeats.
The "Steel Cube" approached within 600 feet of the flesh and blood colossus, triggering the "Mythic Anti-Magic Field", and the "shrinking object technique" that restrained steel became invalid. The four small iron blocks suddenly expanded four thousand times and became huge steel. Meteor, breaking through the sky and hitting the flesh and blood giant!
"Success!!"
Seeing this scene, the young people in the sky couldn't help but cheer, but in the next moment, their smiles froze on their faces and turned into dumbfounded!
As soon as the four "Steel Cubes" entered the radiation range of the "Myth Anti-Magic Field", the flesh and blood colossus received a warning that a massive object was falling down at a high speed, and dark negative energy fluctuations appeared all over the body, before the "Steel Cube" hit itself. , Transformed from flesh and blood into a hazy incorporeal form.
Although the "Steel Cube" sinks vigorously, it does not carry any magical special effects under the suppression of the anti-magic field. It is a large iron block in the physical sense, and cannot cause substantial damage to the incorporeal target.
Four big iron blocks whizzed down and passed through the looming incorporeal colossus without any hindrance, and finally slammed to the ground, smashing four large holes in the farmland.
The incorporeal colossus has no weight, and rises lightly in the air, slowly raising its head, looking up at the dusk sky.
The echo of the heavy object falling still echoed over the cornfield. Rebecca and the others were shocked. It was not until the sight of the intangible colossus came into contact with them that they suddenly recovered and broke into cold sweat.
"How could this be..." Ryan murmured, losing blood on his face, and asked Rebecca with the last ray of hope: "You still have a'Steel Cube' in your hand. Do you want to bless the'Nether Arms'? Go out and try?"
Rebecca bit her lip and shook her head hard.
Such an attempt is no longer meaningful.
In fact, as soon as the words were spoken, Ryan realized his mistake.
Indeed, weapons equipped with "Nether Arms" can kill incorporeal creatures, and "Nether Arms" belong to necromantic magic, and will not be suppressed by the "mythical anti-magic field" of the colossus. It is theoretically suitable for combating incorporeal colossus.
Unfortunately it was too late.
If they knew from the beginning that the Colossus of Flesh and Flesh had an early warning system, had a hedging device that would automatically trigger the "Transfiguration Incorporeal", and bless the "Steel Cube" with "Nether Arms" in advance, this blockade operation might be successful.
It's a pity that they didn't know in advance that the flesh and blood colossus had been modified, or they looked at the colossus with their old eyes during the "Mineral Vein War" five years ago, and they missed the opportunity.
Now that the colossus has discovered that there is an enemy lurking above its head, it can close the "Myth Anti-Magic Field" at any time, and Rebecca will not be able to hit the "Steel Cube" again.
Just when they were hesitating, the large group of bound spirits surrounding the Flesh Colossus had received the order of Queen Huai Ya, and they ascended into the sky to search for the enemy who had attacked the Flesh Colossus just now.
Rebecca held the gun in her right hand and held the Mithril Sacred Emblem in her left hand, intending to channel positive energy to destroy the undead that was approaching, when a warning from Master Heimdall suddenly came in her ears.
"Miss, it doesn't make sense to continue fighting, and you can go quickly while it's still too late!"
Rebecca took a deep breath and reminded her companion to retreat quickly through the "communication technique".
Angel and Ryan hurriedly used the "Teleport Technique", bringing Rebecca, Arnold and Lowry to rush back to the hermitage before being surrounded by the bound spirits.
On the ground, the colossus of flesh and blood returned to its physical form.
Queen Huaia sat in the cabin inside the colossus and blew a whistle to summon the spirit-bound guard that had just been released for patrol. She neither chased Rebecca and others nor tried to destroy the nearby manor to vent her anger.
This is not because she is magnanimous, but vaguely feels that she has an invisible eye that seems to be looking at herself coldly in the dark, making her feel a tingling scalp inexplicably, so she decided not to stay here more, and hurried to the military camp and Winthrop. The earl met.
In fact, Queen Huaiya’s concerns were not an illusion.
In the depths of the earth, in the distant "Magic Eye Nest City" Udinos, in a gloomy deep well, a "Giant Eye Tyrant" is staring at the flesh and blood colossus in the magic mirror.
In her eyes, there seemed to be a fire shining.
It was the eternal reflection of the fire in River Valley town in the depths of her soul, and it was the manifestation of countless aboriginal souls including Uncle Logan and Mrs. Istar.
Indeed, she can destroy the colossus of flesh and blood, and is also able to protect Midgard from the iron hoof of the invaders.
But she didn't want to interfere.
Sir Castis said before his death, "Even in Midgard, fifty righteous people can always be found, and this city never deserves to be destroyed."
Joan is not sure if "Fifty Righteous People" can be found in Midgard, anyway, she is definitely not one of them. Should this city be destroyed, or leave it to the goddess of fate to judge. !
...
When night fell, Arnold, Lowry, Angel, and Lane hurried back to the Continental Army headquarters to report to senior officers such as Vassar, Gates, and Laval on the failure of the ambush of the Colossus of Flesh.
There was silence in the headquarters, and the atmosphere was oppressive.
George Vassar unbuttoned the button on the collar of his uniform and paced back and forth in the conference room.
The troops in the city have been assembled, and the publicly communicated order is to strengthen the defense, but he knew very well that Midgard City could not defend it.
Tomorrow morning, when soldiers of the Continental Army saw a towering colossus like a tall building on the enemy's position outside the city, the fire wrapped in paper would erupt violently, causing the morale of the troops to collapse. Thank God for not mutiny on the spot.
At this point, General Vassar could only accept the reality and negotiated with his generals to abandon the city of Midgard, lead his troops across the Vimur River, and withdraw to the southern Freeport.
No one in the headquarters opposed the retreat. The question is how to withdraw?
The Feizhen Army is now three miles away. How easy is it to move more than 26,000 people from under the eyes of the Feizhen Army to the other side of the river?
A slight mistake in the retreat will result in annihilation.
The combat meeting lasted until dawn on August 1, and ultimately failed to negotiate a safe retreat plan.
As time passed by, the generals had to bite the bullet and reach a consensus: After nightfall today, the whole army will cross the river and retreat!
As for whether it will be discovered by the enemy outside the city? I can no longer consider so much now, and I can remove one by one!
