Chapter 514: Chapter 514

"What’s happening at the city gate? It seems chaotic." The Sand People’s upper classes, who had just returned to the city center, frowned as they looked towards the commotion. It was clearly visible across the city, the whole area was in a state of chaos.

"No, no good, we’ve been attacked. It’s an invasion."

"What? Humans dare disturb our city?" The Sand People were ignited with outrage.

"No, it’s not humans, it’s Sand People. A group of Sand People from god knows where are wreaking havoc at the city gate."

A few leaders couldn’t bear it anymore. They shoved the messenger aside and led their people towards the city gate again. By the time they arrived, they were met with a merciless onslaught by a band of Quicksand Soldiers.

These were all second-tier Quicksand Soldiers, each one of them incredibly formidable. They belonged to the elite force in their city. Now, the city gate was in ruins, fully occupied by them.

"Bastards! Which city are you from? Stop this at once. The Great Lord has long decreed no infighting. You are defying his commands," shouted a newcomer, but to no avail.

Facing the fury of these upper-class members, the Quicksand Soldiers retaliated with even more ruthless attacks and magic.

Swarms of dark shadows flew out – these were legitimate sand-control magic spells that only orthodox Quicksand Priests could cast.

But the fact that the high ranking Quicksand Priests would dare to defy orders and attack them was intolerable. It was a disgraceful rebellion. How had they run into such people?

"Enough talk. These men have gone mad. Quickly exterminate them. The Great Lord wouldn’t blame us."

"Yes, kill them." The Sand People behind them now had red eyes. Their people were being massacred, and the city gate was being demolished. This was a feud of life and death.

When Du You arrived, he found the city gate and surrounding area engulfed in fierce battles.

As the Sand People summoned were considerably powerful, a mere gate couldn’t hold them back. But the number of upper tier warriors in a city far outmatched those summoned by Du You.

Thence, his summoned creatures had been suppressed all along, unable to expand. Similarly, the city’s Sand People couldn’t reclaim control over the city gate either.

"Good. As long as there’s trouble at the city gate, there will be cracks in the city’s defense system."

Du You was somewhat familiar with the runes on the city wall. The truly advanced Magic Array, even if the city wall collapsed, would continue to function. But the crude runes in front of him obviously didn’t belong to this category.

As long as the city gate wasn’t closed, at least the defense on this part of the city wall would become exceptionally weak.

Du You set the two sisters on Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, while he himself rode Xiaozi into the mid-air. He then started to condense a fireball. Ten seconds later, Destruction Flames descended from the sky, crashing onto the city.

With a deafening bang, brilliant lights flashed above the city. His fireball was blocked, and not a single Destruction Evil Dog materialized. The whole flame was extinguished by the city’s defense Magic Array, nothing would survive.

At the same time, Du You noticed the runes on the city wall glowing, but their luminosity had significantly dimmed, and some even burst into pieces. Cracks began to appear on the city wall.

"Damn, it’s a human, the human mage they were talking about. These traitors even consorted with humans."

The Sand People were convinced. The Sand People who had invaded them had definitely betrayed them. Although they didn’t know why, it was a fact. "Quick, alert the Flying Legion, kill that human mage."

A moment later, as Du You’s second fireball fell, a large number of Sand Sculptures and Sand Sculpture Knights soared into the sky.

Seeing their sheer number, Du You found it rather daunting. There were hundreds of them, many of whom had reached Tier 2. This forced Du You to lower his altitude. "You two cover for me while I smash through them."

Without ascending into the higher atmosphere, Du You remained in low altitude, circling. After all, all that mattered was that he was able to smash his spells into the opposing city.

Xiaozi unleashed her full electrical power, causing Du You’s entire body to tingle. It was an extremely uncomfortable sensation. But the power of each Thunder Light Orb left Du You speechless.

"If I had known this would’ve happened, I wouldn’t have ridden on Xiaozi."

On the ground, a volley of lightning bolts jetted out. They were blood red. The sky was suddenly painted red.

The Sand People and Sand Sculptures lacked magic resistance and were hit by Hell Blood Demon Thunder. Many fell straight from the sky, and some were already dead before they hit the ground. Grabbing the opportunity, Lin Yushi eradicated nearly a hundred of them at once.

"No good, they have powerful Archers!" Originally believing that there was only one mage, the Sand Sculpture Knights had suffered a great loss in manpower, their vigilance rocketing instantly.

However, Du You paid no mind to these Sand Sculpture Knights, and cast five consecutive fireballs at the opposing city, finally shattering its defense. The city wall in front collapsed immediately, riddled with holes like a chunk of cheese.

But Du You didn’t pause, continuing to hurl fireballs. From the beginning, Du You bombarded the city with a total of fifteen fireballs, nearly reducing the whole Sand People city to rubble. Inside, countless Sand People were incinerated to nothing. Updates are released by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩

Du You, having finally ceased his attack, took a breather. The pressure just now had been tremendous.

His Spiritual Sea was still in turbulence, and almost half of his Magic Power had been drained. Even considering his enormous reserve of magic, consuming so much indicated the number of spells he had released just now.

But upon looking up, Du You chuckled. When compared to the battle results before his eyes, what was the expenditure of a little magic?

Looking up, countless Sand Sculpture Knights were hovering in the sky. Out of fear of the two Archers on the ground, they dared not approach easily. But now, it was time for Du You to counterattack.

Quietly recuperating his magic, once it was fully stabilized, Du You patted Xiaozi.

"Let’s go and take care of them." As he said this, Xiaozi soared into the sky. As they were faster, Du You wasn’t worried about the Sand Sculpture Knights being able to attack him.

Seeing Du You ascend, Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi exchanged a glance, then dashed towards the city gate. They couldn’t assist in the aerial battle, but they could still contribute to the ground combat within the city.

The Sand People city, which Du You had turned into rubble, had suffered severe losses, not just the soldiers and high-tier warriors, but the city’s defense system had also been destroyed. Du You might not dare to confront a large city, but he wouldn’t hesitate to tackle a small one.

Without the city’s defense system, the city was no different from a larger Sand People settlement.
