Chapter 411 The Tallest One
"Sir Colin?!"
Jennifer narrowly escaped death, but she suddenly couldn't hold back her tears, her vision was a little blurry, she wiped her eyes hard and shouted in surprise.
But soon, she looked around and couldn't see another familiar figure, and her face suddenly turned ugly:
"Grandpa Irvine..."
"I'm sorry that Mr. Erwin has passed away unfortunately... I'll tell you the specific situation later. Can the Roen family contact Neustadt City?"
Colin shook his head, cast Temple Ring Restraint, controlled Antoine and the two, and asked in a deep voice.
The wizards of the Loen family did not escape too far. Seeing the change in the situation, they also returned one after another.
"Yes, there is a large communication ring tower on the top of the White Tower specifically used to communicate with Neustadt City."
One of the leaders, a middle-aged wizard, replied.
"Haha... It's useless." Antoine knew that he had no hope of survival. Even at this moment, Colin was controlling him at lightning speed. He couldn't even commit suicide, and his mood had sunk to the bottom.
If he dies on the spot in the battle, his soul may still be able to enter the Kingdom of God, but if he is caught and handed over to the Supreme Council for trial... Antoine was filled with fear when he thought of such an outcome, so he continued to taunt coldly:
"The Communication Ring Tower has been destroyed by us. By the time Neustadt City finds out, the Filthy Umbrella Mushroom will have completely destroyed all the fields!"
"You!" The middle-aged wizard of the Loen family gritted his teeth and glared at him.
Yes, that's it, angry!
Antoine looked at Colin, hoping that he would be equally angry and kill himself like this, and then return his soul to the Kingdom of God!
However, at this moment, just as Antoine was about to add fuel to the fire, a responding voice came:
"Well done, Antoine, they can't stop anything!"
‘This is... Nishizawa-sama’s voice? ! ’ Antoine was slightly startled.
Colin's face turned cold, and he clenched his left palm tighter, moving his knuckles to grind the real spirit of Nishizawa that was bound in it.
"ah--!"
The latter wailed in pain... Colin couldn't help but frown slightly.
This third-level wizard seems to have some problems with his sanity and is very noisy... If he didn't want to miss any valuable information from Caesar's mouth, he would have completely blocked it with witchcraft.
"Have you destroyed the communication ring tower?" Colin raised his head and asked coldly.
However, Antoine lost his arrogance at this moment, his face was pale and his head was lowered, and his body was trembling slightly.
‘How is it possible? Is Colin a third-level wizard? ! Why did Lord Nishizawa fall into his hands, and even the real spirit couldn't escape! ’
York on the side also had his pupils dilated and was extremely frightened.
Since Caesar's true spirit can be captured by Colin, let alone their souls! If you die now, you are really dead. Unless God takes the initiative to guide you, it is absolutely impossible for your soul to return to the Kingdom of God in front of Colin!
puff--
In the distant field, a huge filthy umbrella mushroom shot out countless gray-black spores from under the umbrella like a rocket, and a black ring wave surged towards all sides.
The coldness on Colin's face seemed to condense into a layer of frost.
Uh-huh!
He cast an answer witchcraft on Antoine!
The latter's eyes suddenly became dull and lifeless.
"Tell me, how do these filthy mushrooms prevent the fields from being polluted?"
"Destroy... it is impossible to destroy the filth... Umbrella mushroom, puff... ho ho..."
As if he had touched some kind of taboo, Antoine just said a few words, then suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and when he looked over, he had collapsed on the ground.
"It's useless. Even if the filthy mushroom is broken into pieces, it will turn into small mushrooms and continue to pollute the land. Even if it is burned with flames, the filth will not disappear. At most, the area polluted will be smaller. Some."
Nishizawa, in the palm of his hand, made a gloating taunt.
Colin ignored him and just took a closer look at Antoine who fell to the ground. He found that his soul had become broken, his eyes were chaotic, and he seemed to have become stupid...
It seems that using witchcraft to inquire will not work.
Colin turned his head and looked into the distance. The overwhelming ash was flying in the air, like a dust cloud after a volcanic eruption. The starlight and moonlight were blocked, as if the end was coming.
The cave creatures that originally ran out of the cave were almost approaching the tall city wall of Golden Wheat. The soldiers guarding the city gathered on the city wall. They were far away, but Colin could still clearly see the panic on those people's faces.
The strange situation outside the city was already very obvious. Everyone who was sleeping in Golden Wheat Sui City woke up one after another. The orange lights were lit up one by one, and then the cries of babies mixed with the noisy voices of adults came in like a wave.
Golden Wheatear is surrounded by farmland on all sides and has excellent geographical conditions. This is a proud symbol of its status as the capital of the Loen Kingdom.
But now it has become a prison of restraint.
The distant cities of the Loen Kingdom have also been attacked by the demonic tide. They may be better off, but they may not be.
Farmland is spread throughout the Loen Kingdom, occupying most of the territory.
As for the nearest city of Neustadt, where there were enough wizards to come to the rescue, even at his current speed, it would take at least several hours to arrive.
For several hours... Colin watched all this with deep helplessness in his heart.
Bang! !
A spider-like cave monster discovered them and attacked madly without hesitation, but was dispatched by the wizards of the Loen family in an instant.
"Sir Colin...what should we do now?"
Yeer, the middle-aged wizard headed by the Loen family, looked at the demonic tide approaching the golden wheat ear and cast an inquiring gaze.
Colin was slightly startled.
Wizards respect strength, and the strongest one is naturally the leader... But he suddenly realized that in this disaster, he turned out to be the strongest and tallest one.
"Go to the city first." Colin thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.
Even if you want to do something, you must first gather the group of garrison wizards who can be used.
However, at this moment, Colin caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the sky not far away from the corner of his eye.
‘Shelley? ’
"You go and gather all the garrisoned wizards first, I will arrive soon."
Colin paused, turned around and said, then stood up.
After a while, he came to Shelley.
"Colin, why are you here?" Shelley looked surprised, but she didn't have time to ask too much. She hurriedly continued: "But you came just in time. I have already informed Tutor Sylvester that Neustadt City Support will arrive soon, and he should arrive within ten minutes at most. We need to organize wizards to temporarily defend Golden Wheat Spike City!"
Colin was slightly startled, and then felt happy.
"Impossible, all the communication ring towers have been destroyed, how can you possibly contact the city of Neustadt!"
Nishizawa shouted in disbelief.
Shelley noticed the true spirit in Colin's palm and cast a doubtful look.
Of course she didn't need to use a complex communication tower to contact Sylvester, she had her own emergency contact method.
"One of the culprits behind this incident, the specific situation is relatively complicated." Colin explained simply.
"Isn't this just a demonic wave in the cave?" Shelley was confused.
"No, I'm afraid it's a conspiracy by the gods to destroy farmland."
As soon as Colin finished speaking, Shelley's expression immediately changed. She hurriedly looked away into the distance, and then her expression became even more ugly.
The Chasay Chamber of Commerce has been focusing on agriculture for more than two years. Shelley knows very well how important farmland is to ordinary people, nobles, and even wizards...
"Is there any way to stop it?" Shelley looked away and turned around to ask.
Colin shook his head and repeated the information revealed by Caesar just now: "Even if those filthy mushrooms are broken into pieces, they will turn into small mushrooms..."
Shelley was silent, his pursed lips turned white.
"Your Excellency Colin, the garrison wizards have been assembled!"
At this time, Yeel of the Loen family flew over with a large group of garrison wizards.
Colin did not hide his figure and was in the sky, so Yell rushed over after summoning all the wizards stationed there.
The sound of explosions sounded sporadically, and the cave monsters were already approaching the city wall.
In fact, if the gods' main purpose was not to destroy farmland, which affected the progress of the cave creatures to a certain extent, they would have already rushed under the Golden Wheatear City Wall.
"Sir Colin, what should we do next?"
Colin turned his head and glanced at Shelley next to him, only to find that she suddenly looked unfamiliar. He understood in his heart that Shelley was handing over the command to him.
He looked back at the wizard in front of him.
There were less than a hundred wizards stationed there, not many in number, but standing together in front of Colin, it was still a large area of darkness. At this moment, all the wizards' eyes were focused on Colin, which made it even more oppressive.
In order to save magic power, Colin has removed the disguise witchcraft on his body, and the powerful aura of the second-level wizard is exposed without concealment.
The wizards of the Loen family who had seen him take action were full of respect. The remaining wizards stationed in the city were not only respectful, but also surprised.
Especially Wilbur, the wizard who thought he knew Colin best, was so shocked that his eyes almost dropped.
He had countless questions in his mind that he wanted to ask, but due to the wrong timing, he could only hold them in his heart, which was really uncomfortable.
It was outrageous that Jin Yu, who usually looked like wizards like himself, could cast second-level witchcraft across different levels, but now he was said to be a second-level wizard? !
Colin paused for a moment, looked at the wizards with different expressions in front of him, and first said in a deep voice:
"We have sent out a message for help. Reinforcements from Neustadt City are on the way and will arrive soon."
"And what we have to do now is to keep the golden ears of wheat!"
Colin's calm expression and the information in his words gave reassurance to the wizards present.
It turns out that reinforcements are already on the way!
They did not doubt that Colin was lying. After all, lying did not do Colin any good.
"Time is running out, let's go, everyone, work in pairs and stand guard on the city wall..."
Colin continued, preparing to take the lead and fly towards the city wall.
"And ask the soldiers defending the city to evacuate the crowd to the center of the city." Shelley on the side added.
Yael cast an inquiring look.
They all know the head of the Chasay Chamber of Commerce, Deloterine, but not everyone knows about his close relationship with Colin.
"Listen to her." Colin said, and at the same time, he and Shelley headed towards the south gate where the demonic tide came the most violently.
The remaining wizards also obeyed Colin's orders and took the initiative to disperse and go to the city walls in different directions.
The mobility of wizards is extremely strong. It only takes less than a hundred first-level wizards to take care of the huge city wall of Golden Wheat.
Perhaps it is because the lower level cave creatures are easier to drive, so when the demonic tide comes, most of the monsters rushing in front are apprentice monsters, with only a few first-level monsters mixed in here and there.
But based on experience from hundreds of years ago, the intensity of the demonic tide will rise to the point where even a fourth-level wizard must treat it with caution in just an hour.
By then, first-level cave creatures will become the mainstream, and second- and third-level cave creatures will no longer be rare.
Fortunately, there have been many demonic tides in the caves in history, but no fourth-level monsters have ever appeared. Otherwise, this would definitely be a huge disaster for the wizard.
"I have to reduce the loss of farmland as much as possible now." Shelley suddenly said, she turned to look at Colin, "I will leave Golden Wheat Sheep City to you."
"Are you going to try to destroy those filthy mushrooms?"
"Yeah." Shelley nodded slightly, "It can save some farmland."
Colin frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I'll go with you."
The safety of the farmland in the Loen Kingdom is not only related to the people living here, but also to every wizard, including himself.
What's more, he cared about some of the words Caesar had said in the battle before.
"You have no idea what the Supreme Council is hiding from you... This world is about to be destroyed. Only the wise can continue to live..."
Gods are the wizard's biggest enemies. Even if it is just for his own benefit, he must try his best to thwart the gods' conspiracy!
What's more, he is the tallest one in the Loen Kingdom today. If the sky is collapsing, if he doesn't stand up, no one will be able to stand up.
If nothing is done now, it will kill several people in the end, increase its arrogance, and increase its power under the acceleration of gravity... I am afraid it will be difficult to resist again!
And... Colin glanced lightly at the noisy city. Having traveled from his past life, he still couldn't regard the ordinary people under his feet as straw and dust that could be easily discarded.
If we can save some fields, we can save more people in the next possible famine.
Shelley was slightly startled when he heard Colin's words, but soon smiled again.
"Okay." She nodded and flew out of the city with Colin.
It is unreasonable to impose your own ideas on others, so Shelley did not expect Colin to go with her to do this work that was not only dangerous, but also labor-intensive and fruitless.
But Colin took the initiative to bring it up, which made Shelley once again realize that Colin was fundamentally different from those wizards who thought they were noble but were actually arrogant and stupid.
‘...It’s really hard to imagine how he grew up like this. ’
The ash-like spores slowly fell, like a black snow. Shelley propped up the shield and walked through it, subconsciously glancing at Colin.
Teng!
Colin waved his hand and summoned the fire elemental.
At their flying speed, they could reach the nearest Filthy Umbrella Mushroom in just a blink of an eye.
boom!
The second-level fire elemental body suddenly expanded, turning into a monstrous fire shield that quickly enveloped the nearest mushroom and roasted it.
Shelley on the side was not to be outdone. A flash of blue light flashed, and another mushroom not far away instantly turned into an ice sculpture, and the spores were also condensed in the ice crystals.
However, the vitality of the Filthy Umbrella Mushroom is so powerful that simply freezing it can only temporarily limit its spread, but cannot kill it immediately.
"You are responsible for freezing the spores in the air and inhibiting their spread. I will kill the large mushrooms!"
Colin was keenly aware of this phenomenon and suggested in a deep voice.
"Okay!" Shelley nodded decisively.
Then, she closed her eyes slightly, her snow-colored hair moved without any wind, and the cold blue light spread quickly from the center of her eyebrows to her surroundings.
Shelley turned into translucent ice crystals in an instant!
Buzz——
A spherical white light suddenly erupted from Shelley's eyebrows. Colin only felt a chill when the white light swept across, but the gray and black spores that were constantly floating were each covered with a layer of white frost, as if the black snow had turned white again.
Then, bursts of cold wind came from nowhere, like a broom, gathering the frost-covered spores into huge balls, and then condensed in place.
"No! How is it possible? How could you be a second-level wizard too!" Caesar, who was in Colin's palm, finally came to his senses and screamed repeatedly.
"Nice job." Colin was overjoyed when he saw this.
It is not easy for an ordinary wizard to perform such a large-scale and precise operation... Shelley is indeed an ice elf.
In this way, the two worked together to save the field in front of them.
Shelley's power of frost greatly curbed the spread of the foul mushrooms, and Colin summoned the ice element to help Shelley, while burning the mushrooms and the mushroom spores collected by Shelley, allowing her to Release the burden and free up your hands to continue freezing mushroom spores.
With such efficient collaboration, the two unexpectedly discovered that what they did was not just in vain as Nishizawa said. The pollution caused by these mushrooms was obviously suppressed by them!
During this period, several second-level cave creatures ran out of the cave, and Colin used his fists to deal with them one by one, which made Shelley extremely surprised.
After a while, a reinforcement exuding tyrannical power arrived first.
There is no doubt that he is Shelley's mentor - Sylvester.
