Suddenly, flashes of light burst out from Xia's fingertips.

The girl in heavy armor waved her right hand.

From left to right, a series of flashes burst out on the crest of the insect tide, turning the world into black and white.

Bang, bang, bang——

Huge explosions occurred among the insects. Every explosion would completely clear out the insect swarm in an area, leaving only a huge hole waiting for other insects to replenish it.

Relying solely on Xia's strength, the unstoppable swarm of insects was able to halt its advance for a moment.

Without hesitation, Xia raised her right hand and retracted it again.

There was another series of black and white flashes, as if the ground had been plowed again, and the swarm of insects suffered heavy losses once again.

And this time, along with the cannon fodder that blocked the sunlight, they were blown away by the airflow of the explosion.

The sun briefly descended upon the earth, causing the insects in the front to ignite into flames amid rustling movements and fall down one after another.

It can be seen that the wrapped watchtower has finally been revealed. The originally solid structure has collapsed, leaving only ruins.

Although Xia's attack effectively stopped the Zerg's attack from the front, the Zerg's advance in other places was not greatly affected. If you look down from the sky at this moment, you can see that with Rimu Town as the center, the surrounding Zergs have gathered and gradually surrounded it.

Only over an hour had passed at this point.

Lu Ban took out his silver revolver [Last Words], loaded the bullets containing the great being's whisperings, and fired several shots at the swarm of insects.

The insects that were hit immediately twisted up, and with the high-speed vibration of their wings, they spread the ballad that originated from eternity to other insects of the same kind. For a moment, groups of insects fell down with those insects as the center, exploded in madness, and lost their lives.

But even so, the impact is minimal for the large number of insects.

Killing dozens of monsters with one slap is like mowing the grass; killing thousands of monsters with one slap and there are still more monsters is torture.

The swarm of insects gradually closed in, and it seemed that even the light of the blood moon was about to be obscured.

At this moment, a flame bloomed from the void, quickly igniting all the insects it touched. Those insects burned rapidly, withered, and turned into ashes.

Another bolt of lightning fell from the sky, piercing through the thick barriers of the insect swarm, allowing some sunlight to seep in and illuminate the observation tower at the top of the fortress.

The earth also began to tremble, and the stones seemed to have their own will. They stood up and formed giants one after another. The insects clung to the giants, but were quickly knocked away and smashed to pieces.

"This is……"

A somewhat weak Drizzt looked at the attacks. The attacks did not come from Xia, but from the rear of the fortress.

He saw that in the encirclement that was about to close, a group of people occupied the last tiny gap.

The gap was very small, with only a crack left, but this crack could not be closed at all!

Lu Ban looked over.

[True Vision] allowed him to still accurately capture the person standing on the distant ground at this time.

Lu Ban did not recognize those people. They were wearing red and black cloaks, and under the cloaks were heavy silver armor. Their faces were almost hidden in their helmets. They held books and long swords in their hands. A flag was raised from the crowd. On the flag were thorns and long swords. It was the flag of the current Kingdom of the Kingdom of Darkness.

"Is it the court mage?"

Xia also noticed the changes here, and she recognized this configuration at a glance.

"They are the elite troops of the court wizard..."

On top of the Gray Tower, Jost also recognized the origin of this team.

Among the court mages, there are some teams composed of mages who specialize in combat. These mages are called Pale Knights. They have rich experience in fighting monsters. Their swords and books are blessed with magic and have powerful combat capabilities. Their armor is also solid magic armor. These mages are the prototypes of the later Grey Tower mages and are also the earliest agents. They walk on the land of the Kingdom of Night and fight on the front line of every magic tide.

But why, they appear here.

Jost was confused.

A few more bursts of magic were unleashed, and the gap was actually torn open by this group of heavily armored mages.

In the howling cold wind, Jost heard the sound of magic coming from the team of mages.

"...Joster, the Sixth Pale Knights of the Kingdom, have been ordered to come to support."

He heard his name and felt that the voice sounded familiar, then he heard the man say something else.

"The teacher asked me to tell you something. You are such a worrying guy."

Suddenly, Jost understood.

This is the support sent by my teacher.

The team leaders must be the seniors with whom I once studied.

He was a little dazed. Facing the swarm of insects, a certain will was gradually brewing in Jost's mind.

And the Pale Knights have gathered together.

"Raise the flag and raise the sword. Now is the time to show what you have learned in your life and let these insects know who is the master here."

The flag fluttered high in the wind, and suddenly, as if they understood where the threat lay, countless insects gathered into a torrent and rushed towards the team of knights.

This devastating force is enough to collapse buildings, break swords, and destroy the will of everyone.

Bang——

After a brief silence, the torrent hit the team of pale knights head-on. Suddenly, everything was submerged, with only the sound of the insects' flapping wings.

Jost's eyes dimmed for a moment, but the next moment, light overflowed from the torrent, and the warm and calming light penetrated the insect swarm like a sharp sword, tearing the insect swarm apart.

Bang——

Amidst the loud bang, the swarm of insects was blown apart, and a barrier made of magic blocked the monsters and firmly protected the pale knights in the center.

I saw these knights standing together, facing the enemy, with their backs against the flags. The flags were still flying, and their armors were still flawless, as if nothing in this filthy world could destroy them.

At the same time, the strange and extraordinary items in the hands of the players gradually began to affect the Zerg.

Some insects suddenly turned into stones and smashed towards their own kind. Some insects lost their way and bumped into each other randomly. Some insects began to grow flowers and grass and became plants. Some insects had frost on their bodies and froze quickly.

In the fortress of Dusk Town, the battle between the players and the demon tide has truly entered a white-hot stage.
