Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1217 - 784: Assault (Part 2)

The war is over...

"It would be great if we could wait for that day."

Reid couldn't help but mutter to himself, picturing scenes of peace. However, everyone was still stuck in the quagmire of war, and nobody knew when they could clean themselves up.

Just then, an ominous premonition flashed across his mind. He suddenly frowned and, as if guided by an unseen force, looked toward the line checking outsiders.

A traveler, looking dusty and weary, was acting suspiciously, reaching into his pocket, while everyone else ignored his presence.

"That person is suspicious!"

In an instant, a Thunder Spear materialized in Reid's hand, and he threw it out in less than a second. The suspicious person barely had time to react before the Thunder Spear had pierced the skin on his chest.

"Boom!"

The lightning engulfed the man in the blink of an eye, and the explosive thunder scattered the crowd, drawing the attention of the entire camp.

But before anyone could question what had gotten into Reid, they realized that the person hit by the Thunder Spear, though in a terrible state, still had the ability to move!

Impossible, the power of the Thunder Spear shouldn't be this low...

Wait, the person had a thin yellow membrane over them, enveloping them in color, resembling a Magic Shield unknown to everyone.

The guarding soldier, upon seeing the protective shield and realizing that the one who threw the Thunder Spear was the recently famous Reid, had a flash of insight and instantly made a decision—

The soldier kicked the person far away!

Reid is one of the rebel army=his decision can be trusted=there is definitely something wrong with this stranger!

There was no internal strife; the soldier's judgment was quick and decisive.

And thanks to this swift judgment, his life was saved, because the stranger, who was kicked away, was enveloped in dazzling white light before hitting the ground... the aura of Holy Light!

"Boom!"

In the next moment, his entire body turned into a massive bomb and detonated, leaving crisscrossing cracks on the ground!

If such an explosion had occurred at the gate, the defensive magic array inscribed on the wall would have suffered severe damage, taking a long time to repair and undoubtedly providing the enemy with an opportunity.

Wait a minute, the enemy's opportunity?

"Woo—"

A loud and clear horn sounded from another watchtower. Reid quickly turned to look, only to see thick smoke rising from the distant horizon. The sound of iron hooves reminiscent of war drums came sweeping in, carried by the wind. It was a massive army, numbering in the thousands, if not tens of thousands!

In comparison, the garrison at Hepa Town was significantly smaller!

"Enemy forces are attacking!"

The reconnaissance soldier's voice instantly spread throughout the camp, and after a few seconds of silence, the camp burst into chaos.

"It's the Holy Light Church people; they finally came."

Reid clenched his fists and cursed, "What's going on outside, how did the enemy get within visible range before being discovered? Why haven't we received any information from the reconnaissance soldiers outside the city?!"

It was apparent that their reconnaissance soldiers outside had somehow been rendered ineffective, quite possibly fallen victim to the machinations of the Holy Light Church.

Several people in the outside group suddenly tried to detonate themselves to destroy the city walls, but the quick-reacting soldiers kicked each one away, resulting in beautiful fireworks in the distant clearing.

Continuous explosions sounded like war drums before battle, causing every heart to beat faster.

The anticipated attack from the Holy Light Church had finally begun!

"Don't panic, deploy the defense magic! Do it like we've practiced before!"

Hevi's voice, amplified by magic, resounded throughout the camp. Other church members also stepped forward to direct efforts, and a miraculous transformation occurred. The chaos turned into order, and under the direction, everyone methodically carried out their duties.

This quick response was considered good, even excellent, among Scameroon's soldiers.

However, compared to the soldiers from the Warrior Country, it was still ordinary.

The rebel army had rehearsed how to resist the invasions of the Holy Light Church numerous times. By now, everyone understood their duties clearly and knew exactly what to do, following previous exercises.

The magic shield enveloping the entire Hepa Town rose instantly, covering it tightly with seven layers of pale red shields, providing people with a strong sense of security.

The people who turned into self-destructive trucks aimed to destroy this—the magic array engraved on the city walls.

The combat-oriented troops led by the Starfire Church were already on the city walls, ready. The Wilderness Church used magic to grow various natural plants for support, and the Golden God Sect even brought out the costly Magic Enhancement Cannons, mounted on the city walls, which could enhance and project the user's magic.

Moreover, the cannon bodies were made from giant pea shooters from the Cangyin Dungeon, greatly boosting the enhancement efficiency for some unknown theoretical reason.

"The Holy Light Church really chose a great time to come."

Standing atop the city wall, Hevi used a telescope borrowed from the Sain Dungeon to observe the opposing forces with a serious expression. He knew that the Holy Light Church would not act without at least a fifty percent chance of winning, so this battle had to be taken seriously.
