Pu!


    Such sounds continued to ring. The umbrella-shaped metal objects launched by the chariots stabbed into the walls. Ye Zhongming was shocked to notice that he could feel the wall shaking. Moreover, the tremors quickly turned into intense vibrations.


    “Stabbing Earthworms!”


    Hong Xiang bit his teeth when he said those words.


    “What do you mean?”


    Ye Zhongming took a look. The attacks were proceeding orderly, and he didn’t have any orders to give. He heard Hong Xiang say a name, and he asked.


    “Something that destroys the foundations of buildings.”


    Hong Xiang could only explain this much. He didn’t know much about the theory behind this equipment but knew that the Posthumous People, called Stabbing Earthworms, focused on destroying the foundations of the walls.


    Ye Zhongming nodded. He had never seen such a thing before but could sense it was amazing.


    He knew how tough the Imperial City walls were. They were built with green stone and other materials. Even if Ye Zhongming freely attacked, there was nothing he could do.


    But what about these Stabbing Earthworms? Not only did they get into the walls, but they also used some methods to break the foundations.


    “It is said that three of these can destroy a stone building.”


    Neal added.


    Cloud Peak members were shocked when they heard this amount as those chariots had fired a few hundred of them.


    “Quickly destroy them. If they continue to fire, the walls will collapse!” Little Tiger squinted and considered sending cavaliers to fight and destroy these chariots.


    This was definite death. They had no siege weapons so they wouldn’t be able to get on the walls. But they were still willing to die. They shouted some mottos that were similar to some religious rules.


    The people on the walls naturally wouldn’t let them get close. Some Posthumous people archers and Cloud Peak warriors fired. The thousand warriors that charged from the chariots were quickly destroyed.


    But a few dozen people still charged onto the walls. They still smiled even if they died.


    Their deaths weren’t the end but the beginning. Due to their charge, those black balls spread a hundred meters to the wall. Some were broken, and some black liquid flowed out.


    “No!”


    After all, the Posthumous people were experienced in defense. Even if they were in a bad situation from those attacks, they knew that the black balls weren’t good.


    The Light Feather Warriors had gotten closer. A few stronger-looking cavaliers in the front rows suddenly descended. With their allies covering, they got behind the destroyed chariots and tossed some crystals hanging on the sides of the spirit eagles onto the balls.


    The moment the crystals touched the black balls, a change occurred.


    Like a chemical reaction, those balls exploded, and the crystals cracked. Both sides merged and started to form large patches of... Crystals!


    They grew quickly and spread toward the walls. A few seconds later, they touched the wall.


    The temperature in the mountain started to decrease. The crystals didn’t stop and continued up the walls; very quickly, they were on the barrier. The energy consumption notification appeared in his mind again.


    Ye Zhongming was shocked. What was this? How long had passed since the start? The barrier could only last for ten minutes. Then who would stop the Power of the Gods? Without the defense, it could destroy anyone lower than level seven!


    Many people had one thought when they saw those crystals. Was the Imperial City going to fall?


    They had such a thought because those crystals formed a crystal path that was slowly rising from before the walls.
