Novel Bin Chapter 347 Final Defense
The sudden appearance of the five Celestial Beings surprised everyone.
Some of them felt that their appearance was already too late considering the casualties they suffered.
Hundreds if not thousands of people on their side have already died. However, Vincent can somewhat understand why they delayed the mobilization of their Celestial Beings.
They certainly have a clear goal in their mind and they didn\'t mind how many sacrifices they offer as long as they achieve this goal.
As for their goal, Vincent feels that it\'s related to him. Perhaps, they didn\'t just want to kill him…
Vincent looked at Luna and the others and realized that they were retreating to the safety of their barrier.
It is a good decision to return to the top of the walls and launch their attack from this side.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
A group of people suddenly arrived close to him as he acknowledged their presence…
They were Millie, Ceri, Archon Thyrus, and Lar.
"Is there anything we can do to help?" Archon Thyrus spoke as he offered his assistance. With his skills as a Grand Magus, he believes that he could even stop one of the warships alone if he pushes himself to the limit.
Vincent smiled as he certainly needed this person\'s help. However, it is not for fighting but for something else.
"Archon Thyrus, can you identify these warships? I\'m thinking that they are related to the 15th Tower… If that\'s the case, what do you think will happen if Master Ignacy learned of this?"
Vincent asked as he knows that aside from this specific tower, there shouldn\'t be anyone who would bother spending this much just to get revenge on him.
Of course, the Barbarians may be considered the culprit as well but the chances were extremely low.
Thyrus sighed after hearing Vincent\'s question. Indeed, before he even got here, he already recognized those warships… Tower Master Aarav didn\'t even bother disguising their warships at all.
In addition, the five Celestial Beings that intercepted Luna\'s group were also familiar to him. They did not even hide their faces!
It was as if they were worried that Vincent wouldn\'t recognize the culprit of this incident.
"You\'re correct, Vincent. It\'s really them. There\'s no doubt about it. If Master Ignacy learned this, they\'ll be in huge trouble. However… I think something happened in the First Tower while I\'m gone…"
Thyrus explained.
"I see… For now, I need your help to interrogate those people. Millie and Ceri, I would appreciate it if you can help me take care of them." Vincent said as he pointed at Jairo\'s group which has been tied by an enchanted chain. He wasn\'t surprised at Thyrus\' confirmation.
He already expected this much and that something had happened to his Master.
"Who are these people?" Millie asked after seeing the six unconscious magicians tied together.
She can also tell that these six will not be able to use their Mana even if they were awake as the chains were constantly draining their energy.
Ceri only looked at them without asking as she realized that they were all Grand Magus. Although they were already suppressed, the uniqueness of her Primal Sense allowed her to probe them a lot easier.
"They\'re the vanguards sent by our enemies. Use this to interrogate them." Vincent said as he handed over a bottle of orange powder.
They didn\'t have to ask and they already know that this powder is some kind of drug that would make these people tell the truth.
Millie accepted it without question and dragged Ceri with him.
Thyrus and Lar remained on Vincent\'s side waiting for instructions.
"Lar, watch over the garrison brigade. Since our Mage Battalion is gone, only the Magic Knights and Arch Knights were left here. As a Grand Knight, I\'ll need you to step up and reassure them of our situation. In a few minutes, our barrier will probably be destroyed so you will be needed there."
Vincent said as he looked at the man on his left.
They have very few people with leadership skills and power to back them up. Lar is a good candidate for this but he was too used to being ordered around by Millie and Ceri over the past year.
Because of this, although he previously has the skills to command people, it hasn\'t developed and started to degrade.
Lar took a deep breath as he looked at the Magic Knights who were operating the artilleries mounted on top of the walls.
None of them have decent cultivation at all so he could understand why Vincent wanted him to watch them over.
"I\'ll take care of it..." Lar replied as he immediately went to their side.
Since the barrier is about to collapse, these people will certainly feel the pressure and they might start panicking. With his presence as a Grand Knight, he could use his Resplendent Vigor and Imperious Will to control the situation.
Both of these skills were exclusive to a Grand Knight like him so he would certainly contribute a lot just by standing there.
As soon as he left, Vincent glanced at Thyrus and asked about the possible situation of the First Tower and Master Ignacy… Vincent wanted to also hear his opinion on what he should do from now on.
***
While this is all happening, the warships did not stop bombarding their barrier. The five Celestial Beings were also doing the same thing but because they were constantly avoiding the attack coming from Luna\'s group, they were unable to contribute that much.
Apparently, these five were also unable to enter the city because of the Kayser Tower\'s protection. At the very least, they needed some time to create a hole and that is obviously easier said than done.
There was no way Tara, Rem, and Luna would just watch them do it after all.
Furthermore, unlike those five, these three Celestial Beings didn\'t care about the amount of energy they spent since Vincent doesn\'t have to use his Blood Essence to recharge them.
As long as they procure potions outside, Vincent can just do his magic to modify them.
Crack! Crack!
After a few minutes of attacking and defending, the Kayser Tower\'s barrier could no longer hold on as it started cracking…
This had obviously excited the enemies and scared some of the citizens who has been monitoring the situation…
Nevertheless, Vincent\'s expression didn\'t change as he pulled out an artifact in his System Inventory.
