Chapter 199 Main Gate
Xiaquan Palace is not so much a palace group as a fortress group.
Every building in the palace has thick walls and windows, and the whole building group is surrounded by a thick palace wall of nearly eight meters high. The palace wall holds a variety of constant spells, which cannot be climbed and is difficult to damage. There are also automatic attack spells on the wall, which are specially launched for those who try to leap over the palace wall.
Although in this era, there are fewer mages who can fly than pandas, there are still many spell effects that can achieve a short flight effect, enough to jump over any high wall. Therefore, the prevention of air attacks has always been the focus of the daily defense of the palace wall. If those assembly mages unknowingly try to climb over the palace wall, they will become the ruthless target of air defense spells as they approach.
Since this explosion was instigated by Uliawa, Uliana will never let the participating assembly mage Bai Bai die on the palace wall, but will only put the key offensive targets on several portals of Xiaquan Palace. Among them, the main gate is the top priority of the attack. If you can break through the main door, you can go straight into the heart of Xiaquan Palace, control the center, first stop all kinds of protective magic arrays of Xiaquan Palace, and then calmly sweep the whole Xiaquan Palace. The location of the other side door is not as convenient as the main door. If you enter from the side door, it will take a lot of effort to attack the central area.
Shanaliva's requirement for the main door is to strictly guard against death, not to be meritorious, but to seek no wrong. As long as the main door can be guarded safely, then all the gatekeepers are the greatest meritorious.
In addition to rushing to the main gate with the supporting mage, Dimitri also brings the authorization of Sana Riva and has the right to break off the plane. He can mobilize the guard troops at any time according to the actual situation, and can freely execute anyone who may hinder the guard in the battle.
When leading the team to the main gate, the original guard mage of the main gate just repelled the sixth wave of attacks of the explosive mage. When they saw Dimitri, the imperial envoy, came to supervise the battle, they all felt a little dissatisfied, which obviously represented the distrust of the senior officials.
In fact, the original guard mage did a good job until Dimitri arrived. In their opinion, the attack of those explosive mages was like a play. They rushed up in a mess without rules, and they didn't even have decent weapons at hand. They all relied on waving magic wands to attack there. Once they were strongly attacked, the charge formation would immediately collapse, and all the mages were busy running backwards and connected. Six times, except for dropping more than a dozen bodies, the explosive mage could not even touch the door of the main door.
This makes the gatekeeper have a sense of accomplishment. He feels that he has made great contributions. He only relies on his own strength to guard the main door and has no problem at all. In their eyes, Dimitri, who came to pick peaches at this time, can't help but mean to come to pick peaches.
But no matter how dissatisfied he is, he dares not show it. Anyway, Dimitri, as the deputy minister of the security department, can't be offended by these low-level mages, not to mention the orders issued by Shanaliva. It's just like holding Shang Fang's sword, which is specially for cutting. If there are any of them dancing happily. If it's against the yin and yang, maybe Dimitri will be happier. You don't have to pick it. There is a rake that is now established.
After Dimitri arrived at the main entrance defense position with the support troops, he first learned about the previous combat situation, expressed high appreciation for the original guard mage team, and immediately announced Shana Riva's order, which was officially taken over the main gate defense. The first thing Dimitri did when he took office was not to deploy the defense, but to order a temporary defensive position behind the main gate.
The gate has not been touched so far. Instead, it fell down and ordered to build a position behind the gate. What a two hundred and fifty-five orders!
But the official level crushed people to death, not to mention Shang Fang's sword.
The team brought by Dimitri could not do this kind of work. Their task was to defend the front door, so while Dimitri was still reading Shanaliva's order, the members of the team immediately rushed to various positions to take over the defensive positions.
Then the hard work of setting up a defensive position can only be done by the original gatekeeper.
The original gatekeepers complained everywhere, and a few of them jumped out, indicating that they were gatekeepers, not here to do chores, but also always mage, and they could not be treated like this.
And Dimitri's reply was also clean and neat. He directly arrested these people, and one of them was executed on the spot without mercy.
So the world was quiet, and the original gatekeepers began to build temporary defensive positions, and Dimitri was finally able to take time to board the main gate building and observe the enemy.
The explosive mage who retreated six times was about the seventh attack and reassessed about 300 meters in front of the square. It should be a fog-like spell, which made their team covered with a faint white fog in front of them unable to observe the specific situation.
Dimitri was observing, and suddenly saw a flash of light in the white fog, and a muffled sound exploded. A slightly dark red light rose, sliding through an arc, hitting the gate of Xiaquan Palace, making a deafening explosion.
Although there is constant spell protection, the whole gatehouse is still gently shaken, and the insects hiding in the brick cracks in the corner of the wall crawl out like a disaster and fled to the outside.
Then, one muffled sound after another, and dark red light kept shooting out of the white fog, hitting the main gate of Xiaquan Palace. The explosions came one after another, making the constant spells attached to the gate tremble, rippled with layers of magic light waves.
"This is not ordinary attack magic. Obviously, it is a powerful magic weapon, which looks like a cannonball with magic. Is it a magic cannon? No, it's impossible. They don't have the ability to remove the magic cannon from the ship. So what will it be? Didn't they say that these explosive mages don't have heavy weapons?
Dimitri took a breath of cold air. He was not afraid that the main door of Xiaquan Palace would be broken. Although this attack was more fierce than the attack just now, it was not enough to shake the gate of Xiaquan Palace. But the danger is that these explosive mages actually have heavy magic weapons, which shows that there are already forces that support them in sending them weapons, which is a big deviation from Shana Riva's prediction of the explosive mages. If it can't be solved as quickly as possible, I'm afraid that the battle will evolve to an unpredictable side. That will be a disaster for the whole Russian magic world!
"You must report the changes here to Miss Shanaliva immediately!"
Dimitri thought so. He took out his mobile phone and was about to make a phone call. The corners of his eyes swept away at the temporary defense position that should have been under construction behind the gate, but he couldn't help but be shocked.
