"Damn it!"
The assassins who had plenty of time just now became red-eyed.
"What should I do! Why can't the shell of that damned turtle be blasted open despite all my efforts?"
Just as they described it, the shield formed by the earth element shrouded the center of the camp tightly, leaving only a hole through which waves of magic elements burst out.
Almost all of the several preemptive attacks arranged by the assassins were blocked by the shields. Apart from damaging some surrounding flowers, plants, and debris, it did nothing at all.
What's even more outrageous is that in the siege after siege, not only did the shield not weaken, but its momentum seemed to be stronger than before.
It can be vaguely seen that the students inside have formed a formation, with several groups taking turns to output.
"How is it possible that someone's shield can reach this level?!" One of them even said his voice was trembling.
"Don't worry about the shield! Attack those outside the shield first," another person shouted.
Immediately, he took out a tube from his waist, pointed it at the sky, and resolutely pulled the lead.
A beam of fire shot up into the sky and exploded with a bang under the bright silver moon.
"Are those...fireworks?"
On the academy side, there was a slight commotion among the team.
Wayne's expression became more solemn.
"Everyone, be careful! This is probably the signal for the assassins to launch a general attack, and the next moment will be their most violent attack!" Richard said what he just wanted to remind everyone.
So, Wayne just silently strengthened the thickness of the turtle shell again.
Out of concern for "Ven's" own safety, he has been improving this defensive technique since he researched it.
However, this may be the first opportunity to truly test the actual combat skills.
All in all, the results are pretty good so far.
"Next is the [Wind] group." He reminded loudly.
On the assassin's side, following the order given by the man just now, the others changed their fighting methods.
They no longer tried in vain to break through the shield, but gathered from all directions and besieged Raphael and others.
"...No, this will accidentally injure Senior Raphael and the others." Geli frowned tightly.
In order to control the attack direction of the group's ultimate move, one person must be the core of the control technique. The core of the [Wind] group is Kareito-san, who is quite accomplished in magic control.
Although these students are all noble magicians, in fact, there are not many who study seriously. Most of them are children of the great nobles who rely on their family background and talent to wait for death and live a carefree life.
Who is willing to suffer when you can stay in the sugar jar with peace of mind?
Now, the only way to avoid major mistakes is to gather together those nobles who have no magic power but are useless in actual combat, and while ensuring their safety, let them temporarily serve as human fuel agents.
"Can't the wind element be used to simulate the characteristics of arrows?" Wayne asked without any selfish motives.
"...I can't do such advanced skills yet."
Song Li whispered.
Keenly aware that her tone seemed a bit embarrassing, Wayne immediately comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay. In fact, there are probably not many people in the entire academy who can do it."
Song Li said nothing.
Just when the scene was a little embarrassing, another violent fluctuation of magic power occurred from the bottom of the cliff.
"The big one is coming!"
Wayne looked up, also frowning.
The strong wind surged again, and one after another people wearing black masks "flyed" up in the wind.
Good guy, how many ambushes are there?
In desperation, he put a hand on Ge Li's shoulder and forcibly turned her towards the direction where the enemy appeared: "Look over there! Behind the cliff, blow that way!"
Song Li quickly reacted and said loudly: "[Wind] Team, start the magic power transfer!"
As the command was issued, a whole row of magicians with the same wind attribute sent their magic power into the air, forming a huge elemental ball.
In the blink of an eye, an unstoppable small hurricane swept through the air. Many assassins who took advantage of the wind to rise into the air were blown away before they could land. They could only find themselves getting closer and closer to their destination in despair. Far.
This perfectly timed strike cost the assassins at least 50% of their reinforcements.
"Well done!"
In his excitement, Wayne couldn't help but pat Ge Li's shoulder again.
"Can you let go?" she said coldly.
"Uh... I'm sorry." His hand that touched Song Li bounced away like an electric shock.
Unfortunately, his reaction was too late.
"hiss--"
After exhausting all his willpower, Wayne managed to hold back his instinct to cry out in pain.
On the other side, Chrissy's hand was unconsciously placed on her waist.
Obviously, this little movement close at hand could not be hidden from Geli's eyes. Looking at his expression of pain that he couldn't express, Geli sneered.
People inside the "turtle shell" have their own ideas, but the situation outside the "turtle shell" is really not easy.
"The seniors and the guards should come back as soon as possible, and don't fight with them! Passers-by at the foot of the mountain will definitely notice the fireworks signals they send out, and it's hard not to let the news slip."
"They won't be able to hold on for long, and they will have to retreat!"
In order to prevent the fortress from being breached from the inside, Wayne decisively shifted everyone's attention to the outside.
Perhaps because they thought what he said made sense, Senior Raphael and the others began to step back. However, he seemed a little overwhelmed under the siege of a group of assassins.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
One person clapped his hands and appeared quietly from behind the crowd. "Unexpectedly, there are so many talents in Qingxi Academy."
Although Wei En knew that his shield was effective in all directions and there was no blind spot behind him, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
There were still sounds of fighting from the other side of the mountain road, but it was much quieter than the noise just now.
Wayne thought about it and realized that this person might be the real boss. He wasn't wearing a mask, but that face...
If I have to describe it, it looks too ordinary.
Especially since he was dressed in a scruffy mountaineering style. If he were among the crowd, no one would doubt his identity as a poor commoner.
Hearing this, everyone in the academy unconsciously turned around and took a few steps back, looking wary.
Richard frowned and responded: "Qingxi Academy is the top academy in the kingdom, and of course there are many talents."
It was as if he was complaining that this uninvited guest had said a piece of nonsense that everyone knew.
"Well...that's not what I meant."
After saying that, his eyes focused on Wayne.
"If this person hadn't been present today, the situation would have been completely different, right?" he sighed.
"Then I also want to say: If people like you hadn't come out to spoil the fun today, my prince would definitely be in a much better mood than he is now!"
Lawrence sneered in a disgraceful manner.
"Haha...hehehe..." The man was disgraced, but he laughed happily.
