Chapter 587 - Filthy City (2/2)
“Surrender or die, make your choice.”
A dozen players surrounded them with a smile. The Mages and apprentices of the Spatial Magic Tower, who were pretending to be citizens, smartly raised their hands.
“It’s one of our strategies to force them to get out.” Wright, chairman of Fatter Cat, chuckled. “Any intelligent creature wouldn’t like such a filthy environment. It’s too late even if they are to establish the defense arrays. The excrement of the maggots won’t lose their smell so easily.”
The command center was filled with joyful laughter.
Exactly like what Wright said, the defense arrays of Tebesia had indeed stopped more feces b.a.l.l.s from coming in, but they also kept the smell of the feces within.
The stench of the excrement that had already been dropped was trapped inside by the magic barriers.
The bell in the Spatial Magic Tower tolled, and an emergency meeting was convened. Only two-thirds of the members arrived; the other one-third were missing.
“Let’s leave the traitors aside and talk about the problem we’re faced with.” Standing on the high platform, Greene shouted at the official Mages and apprentices down below. “Our foes are the despicable foreigners. They’re shameless and have no sense of honor at all. They don’t deserve to be called our enemies, but they’re still formidable opponents.”
Hardly had Greene said that when someone gagged down below.
Although most Mages could cast Magic s.h.i.+eld, the problem was that they didn’t have the magic power to sustain one for long.
The cost of such s.h.i.+elds was nothing for the Legends, but for the official Mages and the apprentices, it could be a very exhausting spell.
Everybody was holding off the smell with their s.h.i.+elds, but they couldn’t keep it active for
long.
When a magic apprentice ran out of magic power, he was instantly enshrouded by the smell and threw up.
It was like a starting signal. The apprentices who were trying to contain themselves couldn’t endure any longer. Their s.h.i.+elds were gone, and undigested food squirted out of their stomachs.
The official Mages all stepped aside with gloom and nausea on their faces.
They weren’t amused at all, but felt rather sad and sympathetic, because their own s.h.i.+elds couldn’t last long either.
Greene looked at this unbelievable scene of collective vomiting and didn’t say anything. His heart was filled with fury, yet he couldn’t let it out.
The morale of the Magic Tower was already very low.
If he were to burst into fury and punish them again, it would freeze the morale, which was low enough as it was.
“Next, we’ll activate the most powerful weapon of the Spatial Magic Tower. What you’re going to do is very simple.” Greene put on a cold smile. “Follow our weapons, and tear all our enemies into pieces or bring them back. Let them lick our city clean and eat their own discharges!”
Greene’s speech was provocative and blood-boiling. The low morale was instantly boosted.
“Kill those feces-throwers!”
“The wicked must die!”
About five kilometers to the east of Tebesia…
The cat-humans had already evacuated. Maromatha personally led them north, which was the direction where the wind was from in this season.
At this moment, all the cat-humans had been traumatized by the maggot spellcasters.
Too many cat-humans had pa.s.sed out and vomited before.
At this moment, only the players were left in the base.
Some players were quite angry. They had a great time playing with the cats a moment earlier, but the cats were all scared off the moment the maggot Warlocks got to work.
There was even no telling if those cats would come back.
Then, they looked at the maggot Warlocks in an angry way.
As it turned out, the maggot Warlocks simply glared back at them with provocative smiles.
At the same time, they ate certain green matters to replenish themselves with food and energy.
The players who were b.u.mmed by the fleeing cats trembled and moved their eyes away.
In the command center, the chairmen of Fatter Cat and other guilds were discussing their next tactics.
“If I were the leader of the Spatial Magic Tower, I wouldn’t wait and die,” said a certain chairman. “It’s time to show their trump cards. I wonder what they’ve got.”
“What good stuff can they possibly have? Some alchemical equipment at best. It’s not like they can build a Gundam, can they?” The chairman of Fatter Cat laughed.
Everybody looked at him with obvious worry in their eyes.
The chairman sensed that the atmosphere wasn’t right, so he stopped smiling awkwardly.
At this moment, someone broke in and said in surprise, “The Mages of Tebesia are crazy. Look what they have built!”
The chairmen quickly ran outside.
They jumped to the wall, only to see an enormous shadow rising from the sands near Tebesia.
It had a bronze body and was thirteen meters tall even when squatting.
It would probably be more than twenty meters tall if it stood up straight.
From a distance, it looked like a gigantic robot.
The other chairman all stared at the chairman of Fatter Cat as if he’d jinxed them.
