Chapter 409 Hydra

The Kingdom of Hinterland, the city of Bilvia.

Blue and white runes lit up on the top of the Storm Spire, a sign that a large-scale attack was brewing.

"Ulla."

The fishmen let out a roar like a tsunami and rushed forward fearlessly.

Rolling thunderclouds formed in the sky above the route that the murloc troops must pass, and then silver snakes danced wildly, and countless white lightning bolts fell from the sky.

The swarming fishmen were immediately blown into pieces, leaving no residue.

The thunder raged for a short time, but the massive attack of the murlocs was suppressed, and the pressure on the city's protective magic circle was immediately reduced a lot.

In the Storm Spire, the expressions of the church bishops did not relax at all and were still very serious.

Andre snorted coldly and questioned, "Is this the nth time the fishmen have launched a massive attack? If you haven't counted carefully, let me tell you, this is the twelfth large-scale attack."

He paused, sneered and said:

"It's 10:30 in the evening now. Based on our experience last time, the fishmen's attack will continue all night.

Dagon, the king of the murlocs and the deep, will also appear in the battle.

Even if such an attack only happens once a month, it would be difficult for us to withstand it, and it is not something we should bear alone."

The attacking murlocs were bizarre in shape, and it was obvious that they had been forcibly transformed by the law of pollution. The lifespan of these transformed beings was very short, but they were perfect to be used as cannon fodder for the attack.

Judging from the current situation, the enemy's attack intensity is more than twice that of the last time.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. I just don’t know how much of the magic circle’s reserve energy will be consumed.

No one responded to Andre's words, and all the bishops looked unhappy.

No one expected that the battle would become intense from the very beginning.

In the past, the fishman troops would launch a tentative attack for a period of time before attacking. I don’t know what went wrong tonight, but they rushed forward directly at the beginning of the battle.

It was only thanks to the thunderstorm released by the Stormspire that the Church was able to hold its line.

Suddenly, Bishop Karls exclaimed, pointing at the image transmitted back from the eye of the storm and shouted:

"Your Majesty, Dagon has appeared, and there is an extremely huge monster beside him."

What?!

Andre's heart skipped a beat. Dagon usually appeared in the second half of the night, but this time he showed up early. A sense of foreboding flashed through his mind.

He turned his head quickly and saw two huge monsters standing outside the range of the Storm Spire.

A monster whose upper body looks like a deep diver and has a pair of dark green eyes as big as water tanks.

Its flat head was covered with dense, long, fleshy whiskers, and on its back were two rows of hard dorsal fins and a huge, coiled snake tail.

This is none other than Dagon, the king of the deep.

Dagon was huge, but dwarfed by the monsters around him.

The body of this monster was like a mountain of flesh, with nine thick necks and a huge head on each neck.

Its head is shaped like a crocodile, and it has a single horn like a rhinoceros on the tip of its nose.

"It's Hydra! How did it appear here?"

Andre took a deep breath. According to the records of the church, these two sea beasts were the most powerful followers of the evil god Cthulhu.

Dagon commands the Deep Ones and the Murlocs, while Hydra commands the Sirens.

The upper body of the sirens is similar to that of humanoid creatures, and the lower body is a thick snake tail.

The number of sirens is very small, but each siren is the most powerful warrior. Their wild power can tear into pieces everything that stands in their way.

Ordinary adult sirens can reach the fourth level.

The method to distinguish the strength of the sirens is also very simple. Level 4 and above have two arms, level 5 sirens have four arms, and level 6 sirens have six arms.

Andre hurriedly checked how many sea monsters were near the Hydra. As if they had noticed his spying, a fog spread from the location where Dagon was, covering up their information.

"Everyone," the Pope turned around and said to the crowd:

"Don't rely on your luck anymore. We shouldn't be able to fight against such a powerful clan of evil gods alone.

After tonight, we will immediately implement the migration plan and temporarily abandon everything in the Stormspire. Who is in favor and who is against it? "

Before he finished speaking, the fishman in the mist shouted "Ura!" again.

Then, a large number of fishmen swarmed out and attacked the city of Bilvia again.

Andre shouted, "Carls, Witton, you two will be in charge of controlling the magic array of this round of Storm Spire. I will activate the emergency plan and overload the magic array. This will allow the Thunderstorm to release a more powerful attack."

Overloading a magic array will reduce its lifespan, and the amount of loss depends on how long the array is overloaded.

The longer the overload time, the shorter the service life of the magic circle will be.

But I can't care about so many things now, because the Sirens King Hydra is a monster on the same level as Dagon.

Now that two monsters have appeared at the same time, the impact they bring is definitely far greater than before. He must prepare for the worst.

The Pope glanced at the bishops and shouted:

"Just in case, the others should go out and gather the troops in the city immediately."

Although he had confidence in the city's protective magic circle, he was not sure that the enemy could not break into the city.

If the city was breached, the troops lacking effective organization would definitely be defeated.

Karls and his companion used the magic circle control center in the Storm Spire to continuously release thunder storms.

The night sky of the city of Bilvia was lit up by blazing white lightning. The fishmen's fearless attack failed to break the city's defenses.

Time passed slowly, and after two o'clock in the morning, the frequency of the fishmen's attacks began to decrease significantly.

Andre's mood eased a little, but he still remained tense.

Neither Dagon nor Hydra participated in the battle. He did not believe that the purpose of these two powerful evil gods' followers appearing was just to be mascots.

Karls shouted, "Your Majesty, it's bad. The lightning storm I used the magic circle to release is not as smooth as it was at the beginning."

Andre's heart suddenly tightened, and he walked quickly to Karls' side:

"Let me cast the spell this time."

Karls immediately made way, and the Pope personally controlled the center of the magic circle.

Thunderclouds were brewing in the sky outside the city, and then silver snakes rushed down.

Andre released four or five thunderstorms in succession, nodded gently, and said:

“Fortunately, there is no problem with the magic circle. It’s just that the frequency of the lightning storm was released too quickly, triggering the magic circle’s protection mechanism.

The enemy's attack frequency is much lower now, and this phenomenon will disappear soon."

He let out a long breath. As long as he could survive tonight, there was no need to worry even if the magic circle was damaged.

After the church moved to a secret base, the possibility of a counterattack within a few years was almost zero.

Karls drank some water to moisten his dry and burning throat and said:

"Your Majesty, is there a powerful protective array in the base we are migrating to?"

"Of course, the magic circle in the base is more effective than the one in Storm Spire."

Andre smiled. The only thing that the magic array engraved in the base could not compare to here was the energy reserve.

However, when they leave, they can remove the energy stored here and it will not affect its use at all.

As the two talked, they had no idea that the area covered by the fog had expanded to less than a hundred meters away from the protective magic circle.

The nine-headed Hydra suddenly appeared from the thin mist. The position where it appeared was very delicate, at the edge of the thunder storm, and the spells released by the magic circle were completely unable to attack it.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Four of its heads were shining with light, emitting green, white, blue and red lights.

Immediately afterwards, four rays of light as thick as small buckets gushed out, spanning a distance of hundreds of meters and heavily hitting the outer shell of the protective magic circle.

Four whirlpools lit up above the light film of the magic circle, but they ultimately failed to break the magic circle.

Andre's heart, which had been in his throat, finally relaxed. He discovered that his palms were covered with sweat without him noticing.

Hydra released four elemental attacks this time. The green one was a poison attack, the white one was a lightning shock, the blue one was an ice attack, and the red one was a fire attack.

The nine heads of the Hydra can use different laws and powers.

It is said that when Hydra is in its strongest state, it can release nine elemental attacks at the same time. Fortunately, this Hydra has not reached this level, otherwise they would have to say goodbye to this world.

"By pausing the attack, more energy can be allocated to the defensive end."

Andre prayed silently in his heart: "Merciful Lord of Storms, may you stir up strong winds to block the enemy's attack and allow your people to avoid the enemy's attack in the vortex of the storm."

I don’t know if it was Andre’s prayer that worked, or if the enemy’s attack strength was weaker than the defensive power of the protective array. The Hydra’s attack seemed powerful, and the array looked precarious after being attacked, but it never exceeded the critical point of the defensive limit.

Although Hydra's attack did not penetrate the defense of the protective array, Andre and others still felt terrified with every impact of the power of the law.

The noise of the collision of laws occupied their minds, and the black shadow hidden above the city was not noticed by the people below. Hydra maintained the rhythm of the attack and continuously released elemental shocks.

Andre felt a palpitation, and then he became uneasy and his heart was pounding.

The last time he felt this situation was shortly after Dagon's sneak attack on the magic circle. He immediately checked the situation outside through the images transmitted back by the eye of the storm.

Soon, he noticed the dark shadow! "Asshole, playing dirty tricks."

Just as Andre discovered the enemy's trace, he saw the black shadow suddenly spread out and turned into a cover that covered the sky and the sun, shrouding the protective magic circle.

The red light in the sky disappeared, leaving only a black curtain.

At the same time, alarms rang in the control room, and the energy stored in the magic array decreased at an unreasonable rate.

The degree of decline was even greater than when Hydra launched the elemental shock.

Karls looked anxious: "Your Majesty, the energy of the magic circle is decreasing rapidly, and the connection between the enemy and the magic circle cannot be cut off. What should we do now?"

I could only use my ultimate move. Fortunately, I had already removed part of the energy core of the magic circle, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss.

Andre patted the other person's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

He hesitated for a moment, made a painful decision, and then activated the hidden mode of the magic circle.

The light that shot up into the sky was emitted from the Eye of the Storm gem inlaid on the top of the Storm Spire, dispersing the black fog that shrouded the magic circle.

“Oh.”

Dagon let out a howl. A trace of his soul power was hidden in the black fog, but now that the gray fog had burned out, he also suffered some minor injuries.

This was the third time that its attack was blocked, making it very angry.

Karls shouted in surprise: "Your Majesty, great! The black fog has retreated."

The Pope defeated the enemy so easily, which made him realize how strong the church was.

He knew very well that both Dagon and Hydra were sixth-order earth creatures, and no one in the entire continent had reached this level.

It is such a boastful thing that the Pope can use the magic circle to repel the sixth-level enemies.

It was a gratifying thing that the black fog was dispersed, but Andre was not happy.

The magic circle of the Storm Spire has entered hidden mode, and the lifespan of the magic circle will inevitably be greatly reduced.

Even if they return to the city of Bilvia in the future, they will still need to rebuild the magic circle of the Storm Spire.

The battle came to a stalemate. The evil god's followers were unable to break through the defense of the protective magic circle, and Andre and others were unable to cause any harm to the enemy.

At six o'clock in the morning, the sun would rise in another hour, and Dagon and Hydra left together.

Andre breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting through the difficult night.

He had to organize people immediately and lead everyone to migrate.

Two days later.

The weather was clear and cloudless. The sky was as pure as a sapphire without any impurities, crystal clear and pleasing to the eye.

At this time, the McLean family's airship entered the territory of the Farouk Kingdom.

Eliza was in the cockpit at the moment, giving directions to the pilot.

“As long as we don’t deviate from the direction, we can reach Rhine City by driving for another two or three hours.

We will then calibrate our direction and head to Hamers City. Do you remember the route clearly?"

"Ma'am, I've made sure of that. The wind speed outside is not strong right now, so it's almost impossible for us to deviate from the route.

You just need to go back and rest up, and then you can enjoy fresh veal steak in Hammerstown in the evening."

Eliza chuckled, "That's for the best."

On the night of the red moon, they finally made it through, but the magic circle engraved on the skin of the airship was severely damaged.

Fortunately, the airship was attacked only because of changes in Red Moon itself, and not because some mutated creature was targeting them, otherwise they would be in a very dangerous situation.

Not only them, but all creatures in the wild have been seriously polluted, probably affected by the new pollution laws.

After the airship made an emergency landing, they suffered countless attacks. The attackers were obviously much weaker than them, but they launched the attacks fearlessly, which was completely inconsistent with the biological instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm.
