A dinner like a regular meeting was being held, which was the most common social interaction among Augustus' upper-class dignitaries.
And this one held in the city lord's mansion was considered to be of extremely high standard.
Not only the city lord, but also the branch president of the Magic Council in Augustus and the branch president of the Professionals Union will also participate.
Therefore, there are simply countless middle- and high-level officials and even high-level professionals here.
While chatting and laughing with others, the city lord had just picked up the cup in front of him and had not yet taken a sip.
Sensing the strange movement in the sky, his leisurely expression immediately changed drastically, and he accidentally crushed the cup in his hand.
Not only him, but the president of the Magic Council branch, the branch president of the Professionals Union, and several other high-level professionals beside him all had similar expressions on their faces.
That feeling made them all feel extremely bad.
Before they could say anything.
The next moment, more than ten rays of light crossed the space and arrived here at the same time, bursting out with unparalleled power.
In less than a tenth of a second, the City Lord's Mansion, covering an area of hundreds of acres, was crushed into fine powder by the violent impact.
Only a hole hundreds of meters deep was left there, without any trace of a building.
If the power is not deliberately limited to a certain range, it will not spread out.
Otherwise, this round of attacks alone would have killed or injured at least a million civilians in the city.
And as the protagonist facing this blow.
The existence in the city lord's palace, except for a few strong men who reacted, or the dignitaries and professionals who carried precious props with them, everyone else present turned into nothingness in an instant.
There is not even a trace of room for struggle!
Perhaps when they died, they didn't even realize something was wrong, and died before they even had time to feel the pain.
"Asshole, damn..."
When most of the energy dissipated, the survivors finally revealed themselves.
Among the more than twenty survivors, three or four were seriously injured, and the others were more or less defeated. It can be said that if it were not for the defense mechanism of the City Lord's Mansion, which resisted a considerable part of the wave of attacks, these people would probably
We still need to reduce the number of employees.
After they appeared, they did not choose to heal their injuries immediately, nor did they have time to express their sorrow for their dead relatives and friends. Instead, they stood together and observed the surrounding situation to prevent themselves from being attacked again.
It's just that it's better not to look. Once they saw the situation around them clearly, their hearts immediately froze.
A thick black fog has descended from the sky, rendering the entire world into a black world. Even the starlight in the sky and the lights of the surrounding buildings have been completely obscured.
It is a domain-type spell similar to the effect of [Polluted Land], which can greatly reduce the impact of the world's oppressive power on demons, allowing them to better display their true strength.
In addition, there are various negative effects associated with other things.
Devouring light, corroding flesh and blood, spreading fear, toxic air...
It can be said that ordinary civilians, and even low-level professionals, are no different from blind or deaf people in this situation, and they are suffering from spell attacks and casualties every moment, which provides more information for the composition of the "Polluted Land".
Lots of nutrition.
All kinds of chaotic sounds are echoing in the city.
Shouts, roars, explosions...
Completely destroy the order here.
And as the top managers in the city, they had no choice but to face this situation at this time.
Because they had no time to take care of themselves, more than a dozen demons who were the weakest and were [mid-level demons] were already surrounding them either openly or loomingly.
He was looking at himself and others with a fierce look on his face.
The city lord of Augustus said in a low voice with an extremely ugly face: "Someone betrayed the world of Miling, otherwise they would not have been able to sneak in, let alone successfully change the city's boundaries secretly..."
He knew very well that there were only five or six people with the authority to change the defense barrier, but he couldn't tell who betrayed him and others for a while, because these people were all high-ranking people.
You should not betray your own class.
The branch president of the Professionals Union looked around for a while and after analyzing the general situation of the surroundings, he took out some treasured potions from his space ring with a serious face and threw them to everyone present: "I don't want to think about it now.
When we ask this question, we should kill him first and then take these potions."
After taking a look at the potion, everyone recognized that it was a drug that stimulated vitality or potential in exchange for temporary power.
Those who were seriously injured and those with weaker strength swallowed it without hesitation after looking at each other.
If it were normal times, they might still hesitate for a moment or two, but now they no longer have the time to think about the sequelae.
As the most vulnerable part of our side, if we are not decisive, it will only become a breakthrough point for the enemy.
As for the stronger ones, although they did not take the potions immediately, they all put them away and prepared to take them again when they fight to the death.
However, what they did not notice was that the branch president of the professional union had a very brief eye contact with Gwa when he saw him at the center of the devil.
In addition to them, the evil god Zanel, who is hiding in Augustus and preparing to seduce some more believers, reacts faster than the city lord and others when the boundaries in the city change.
They didn't even pay attention to Sarah and the others beside them. In an instant, their bodies turned into streams of light and shot straight into the sky, trying to rush out before the barrier took effect.
But the barrier transformed by Gvar took effect far faster than Zanel could have imagined.
He hit it head on.
Without making any sound, an invisible thrust directly blocked his progress.
Not only flying, but also space jumping is prohibited.
The intensity of its effect cannot be shaken in a short period of time just by relying on the demigod-level strength of this clone.
Turning his head helplessly, feeling the demonic aura that was constantly emerging in the city, Zhanel's face changed for a while, and his body moved back to where Sarah and the others were.
Facing their doubtful eyes, he said: "The demons of the abyss have invaded this place, and the barrier has been completely rewritten, blocking the retreat.
They probably want to kill all the residents of this place and transform it into a [Polluted Land] as a new arrival point."
Facing his words, the doubtful looks on the faces of Sarah and others immediately became particularly ugly!
As natives of this world, they don't need any explanation from Zanel. They know very well what the demons will do in this situation.
Because of this situation, hundreds of cases have occurred in more than a hundred years!
As long as the next actions of the demons are successful, everyone present will die regardless of their origins.
Become a sacrifice to the devils.
Without giving them time to think deeply, Zhanel said with a solemn expression: "Take care of yourself and get ready to provide support."
"Support? Support whom?"
Sarah asked a little puzzled after hearing this.
Feeling the nearly two hundred demonic auras in the city, Zhanel twitched his face and replied unhappily: "Of course we are going to support the strong men in this city. If we don't cooperate with them, we alone have no chance at all.
Fight out."
then.
Soon, they, who were still discussing how to corrupt the Augustan aristocracy, stood up bravely.
And the direction they were going was exactly where the City Lord's Mansion was.
There are the most powerful people there!
And those people who will appear in that position must be the city's top people. Only with their help can we get more useful information.
--------
As for Orshiga and the four of them, they were standing in the square right in front of the library.
They have now returned to their true forms, some are strange, some are ferocious, some are mighty, some are ferocious.
Just the aura revealed caused fear in the hearts of others present.
That is their own high-level biological characteristics.
Among them, Orshiga is the most eye-catching.
He has reached a height of fifteen meters. Due to the extremely high concentration of Balrog blood in his body, he does not need to do anything. Just standing there motionless, the surface of his body automatically releases tens of thousands of degrees of high temperature, like a huge tower.
Like a furnace, it is constantly burning everything around it.
Once ordinary people come within a hundred meters of him, they will be burned to char in an instant.
In addition, facing him who does not hide his true form, those mortals, even if they are not close, just look at his figure with the naked eye, have to constantly undergo mental evaluation. Once the will is not up to the standard, they will be mentally confused at best, and at worst.
Then he went crazy on the spot.
It was so powerful that even the other three demons beside him were worried about it, and they gave him three points in their hearts.
He didn't care about it either.
After gently stretching his real body, which had not moved for a long time, he immediately looked at the dozens of guards hundreds of meters away, who were tremblingly watching him.
That's the city guard responsible for maintaining public order nearby.
Although he can barely be considered a professional, his strength is very impressive.
After seeing that they didn't know whether they should run or stay.
One of the four wings behind Orshika stretched out randomly.
I saw it slap hard!
Along with a roar, a strong wind roared out immediately, sweeping towards the city guards with unstoppable power!
In an instant, their bodies and the surrounding houses were blown into the sky.
A trench hundreds of meters long and several meters deep was blown out of the ground.
After doing all this, he seemed to have just blown up a burst of dust, and said with a casual smile: "If you still don't run away after seeing our true bodies, you have some courage, so I will let you die a little easier."
Then he looked at the other three demons and said, "Let's work together to break the outer boundary of the library first, otherwise it will be troublesome."
"good."
Although their eyes showed vigilance, the three of them still agreed with his proposal.
At the moment Orshiga has the power to threaten them, but under the premise of signing the abyss contract, they are temporarily regarded as a group of people and do not have the conditions to harm each other, so they have no intention of harming Orshiga.
