Currently, the situation appears to be completely in favor of Hamno's side.

Even though they've lost control over the ships at the dock, relying on the spell barrier defending the entire city, it's naturally not a problem to resist the attack of these summoned creatures.

After all, this is just the enemies carried by fourteen ships, far from comparable to the thousand-strong army sent by Lin Yin City, and thinking of breaking the city's defensive barrier is simply a fool's dream.

If they don't want to make unnecessary sacrifices here.

Then for these attacking summoned creatures, perhaps retreating is the wisest option.

Most people present, or rather the casters from Hamno, generally think this way. After all, the barrier that has protected the city for a whole day is right in front of them, and they almost instinctively trust it.

Watching this scene, Ronald shook his head slightly:

"They are somewhat careless."

"Since these summoned creatures dare to come by ship and launch an attack at this moment, they must have made preparations in advance for any possible situation."

Katherine also nodded in agreement:

"Since they are summoned creatures related to Hamno, how could they not understand the city's defensive methods? It seems that there will be no peaceful days on the dock tonight."

Ronald and Katherine's conversation did not attract anyone's attention.

And now what is happening on the beach is undoubtedly confirming the speculation of the two.

The attacking summoned creatures didn't pause for long because of this.

Although Hamno's casters, taking advantage of the city's defensive barrier, are in a safe position, continuously attacking them.

The summoned creatures, however, dispatched corresponding defense personnel to deliberately obstruct Hamno casters' attack. And behind them, those originally fearless summoned creatures began to form special formations, seemingly preparing for some special ritual.

There's no surprise.

This is their means to deal with the city's defensive barrier.

Watching the summoned creatures' actions, Warner Son's shout emerged again from the crowd:

"Those with traceless spell attacks, watch those with strange actions, don't let them proceed smoothly!"

His voice was tense and excited.

This was an unforeseen scene in the previous tactical planning.

Warner Son at this moment isn't sure what these summoned creatures are doing, nor what effects this special ritual will have.

But there's one thing he's very sure of.

The actions the enemy is taking right now must be disrupted as much as possible on their side, ensuring that they do not achieve their goals smoothly!

The next second, incantations resonated from Hamno's side.

Because they are in a safe environment now, they can wholeheartedly cast spells, making their spell attacks faster and more precise this time. On the summoned creatures' side, several of them were immediately knocked down by the spell.

However, this does not affect the continuation of the entire ritual.

With vast numbers, even if several fall, others quickly fill in from the surrounding summoned creatures.

Their proficient and orderly actions.

It's evident that they have rehearsed many times in advance!

In contrast, on Hamno's side, the number of casters who can bypass the barrier to attack with traceless spells does not exceed ten.

Considering the necessary intervals for spell casting and various constraints...

Are the actions of the enemies before them something they can successfully stop?

"Attack! Don't stop!"

As soon as there was a slight unfavorable momentum on the defending casters' side, Warner Son's voice rang out again:

"A powerful ritual requires a long time to operate smoothly; it's not yet the time to give up!"

"Think of your family and friends in the city. Is it time to face this with a passive attitude?"

The teleportation mage's shout was quite timely.

Motivated by his call, the casters, who began to show signs of despondency, immediately rallied their spirits and once again launched attacks against the summoned creatures.

Even though these actions seemed to be insignificant.

But it did indeed have a certain degree of impact on the ongoing ritual.

However, this isn't entirely good news.

Throughout the entire battle, Warner Son's performance was excessively conspicuous.

His continuous commands and shouts during the battle let the summoned creatures determine who was the leader commanding this battle.

Thus, in quite a concealed position, several summoned creatures fixed their gaze in his direction from afar, targeting Warner Son within the barrier.

This is a special curse mastered by only a few among the summoned creatures.

It's also one of the few abilities that can traverse the city's defensive barrier to attack the enemy.

In an instant, malicious and obscure magic power enveloped the elderly teleportation mage.

Before he could react, it aggressively locked onto him!

Zing—

At this moment, the sound of tearing through the air appeared.

The black longsword surrounded by holy flames rushed from behind, then stabbed straight in front of Warner Son.

And the curse magic power, which was about to succeed in its attack, was instantly burned to nothing under the holy flame's illumination, as if it never existed in this world!

Startled by this change, Warner Son stood frozen on the spot.

He blinked and was dumbfounded for a while before realizing he had been saved.

Turning his head in the direction the longsword came from, he saw Ronald and Katherine nodding at him from afar.

It was them who had come to the teleportation mage's rescue at that critical moment.

Turns out it was Ronald and Katherine working together.

Among them, Ronald possessed the sanctuary power, which was adept at countering such spells, so the moment he saw this scene, he instinctively enveloped the holy flame around Saint Catherine's sword.

At the same time, Katherine, who possessed the saint's relic, immediately understood Ronald's purpose.

No verbal communication was needed.

The girl simply raised the longsword and then threw it in Warner Son's direction.

Though these two often bicker and argue, their coordination in combat reveals an extraordinary level of tacit understanding.

Watching their actions, Warner Son didn't know how to express himself.

In the end, he could only nod from afar to express his gratitude to Ronald and Katherine before returning to command the casters.

He certainly wants to thank the two who saved his life face-to-face.

But at the moment, the situation doesn't allow the summoning mage to leave the command front line even for a moment.

However, one wave hasn't settled before another rises.

Just a few minutes later, a new change occurred within the barrier.

On the left side of the battlefield, a bedraggled figure drenched with seawater stumbled out from the nearby forest at some unknown time.

"Mr. Warner Son, it's not good!"

"We discovered something tremendously large in the water, heading towards us!"
