Chapter 785 Magical Machine Army
The number of magical machines that were charging down from the fourth level of the tower was shocking.
They advanced in unison and launched a vicious assault at the Alliance adepts within the winding corridors; the first few Alliance adepts could not dodge in time. They were riddled with holes by a storm of bullets before they could even see if their instant-cast spells had any effect on the flood of metal.
In truth, these metal bullets could only inflict physical damage and should only have posed a minor threat to the defenses of an adept. However, the number of rounds was simply overwhelming.
The adepts’ magical shields were instantly shattered, their bodies quickly following after.
The wildly advancing magical machines didn’t care about the Alliance adepts they had just killed. They continued pushing rapidly toward the lower levels under the control of the person behind them.
There were some individuals with strange and unique skills amongst the Alliance adepts. They used Earth Alteration to raise uneven stone pillars across the corridors to temporarily seal off the path of the magical machines. They then hastily gathered into a defensive formation in the third level hall.
The Alliance adepts might not belong to just a single clan, but as noble and wise adepts, they still had the combat discipline to fight in cooperation with one another.
The battle between the magical machines and Alliance adepts raged on in the magical hall on the third level. While both parties were engaged in inseparable combat, a massive surge of magic energy raced through the stone walls around them, rapidly lighting up the mysterious arrays within them.
This subtle change might have eluded the low-grade adepts who were engaged in the intense battle, but it couldn’t escape the notice of the two Third Grade adepts, whose spiritual senses were stretched across the entire battlefield.
No! The enemy had managed to activate the tower’s defensive systems in the end. This place was dangerous now!
Several profound and mysterious arrays surfaced on the walls under the solemn and watchful eyes of Haines and Yurga. All the adepts in the hall felt the elementium power within them stall. Their intimate connection with the elementium particles seemed to have been shut off by some sort of protective forcefield. They could no longer wield their elementium powers as freely as they had before.
Magic-Interference Barrier!
The Alliance adepts present were no rookies. They instantly figured out the effect of this Magic-Interference Barrier.
Currently, all magic of other attributes–apart from fire–were under immense interference within the tower. If they were fortunate, their spells would only fail. If they were unfortunate, they could even suffer spell backlash!
The appearance of the Magic-Interference Barrier instantly affected the combat potential of the adepts.
Those who wielded fire among the elementium adepts were only a minority. The shields on most of the other elementium adepts flickered before disappearing. Without shields to protect them, the First Grade elementium adepts were no more than pathetic individuals whose physical state was only slightly better than the average human.
The defensive line completely collapsed in a matter of seconds!
The Alliance formed from the various clans could no longer sustain itself. All the adepts gathered around the high-grade adepts of their own clans and started fleeing the tower without hesitation.
“Don’t run. If we can rally, charge up to the fourth level, and destroy the enemy’s teleportation array, we still have a hope of victory.” Yurga shouted with all he had.
Sadly, at this juncture of life and death, there was no longer anyone who was willing to listen to his orders!
