Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2844: 1558: Fierce Battle and Desperation (Part 2)

Upon careful consideration, if that situation held true, not even a full month would be needed— a single day alone would allow the “Corrosion” in this area to spread unchecked.

The enemies' continued dependence on the magical ley lines' eruption to arrive here proves that the Magic Barrier remains operational, meaning the Great Catastrophe has not yet arrived, at least not at this moment.

“Magic Barrier? What is a Magic Barrier?”

The Lila sisters, unfamiliar with this unfamiliar term, exchanged puzzled glances, as the advancing parasitic Earth Dragons suddenly halted, appearing genuinely shocked.

“Ant, you actually know about the Magic Barrier?”

The menacing voice dripped with shock, demanding: “How did you learn of the Magic Barrier's existence?”

This time, Leo Ray stayed silent; instead, the Odust in his grasp erupted in violet light, summoning a line of Dragon-Slaying Lightning Towers right amid the Earth Dragons. The lofty tower peaks brimmed with crackling Thunder Light, linking together to unleash a raging tempest of thunder.

Every spot the hissing thunder touched hurled the unsuspecting Earth Dragons airborne, slamming them hard onto the ground. Those closest to the towers saw their Energy Barriers shatter, enveloped in dense black smoke that reeked of burnt flesh.

It's well-known that Dragon-Slaying Lightning Towers excel against Dragon Clan and sub-dragon magical beasts. Even parasitized, the Earth Dragons retain their sub-dragon traits, making this outcome expected.

With Leo Ray striking first, Fei’er, Moli, the Lila sisters, Elder Bing, and the other key fighters, alongside the Stone Spirits, unleashed their utmost strength. Dazzling Magic Radiance cascaded like shooting stars, blended with arrows and javelins, raining down on the enemies' position.

Suddenly, the shadowy cavern blazed like noon under the vibrant Magic Radiance, filled with ceaseless blasts of magic and energy clashes that hurled rocks everywhere and shook the whole underground realm.

Our abrupt assault, boosted by the Power of Divine Grace, left the foes reeling and unable to fight back effectively.

Leo Ray, Moli, and the top powerhouses needed no mention; their strikes landed true, exploding numerous parasitized Earth Dragons or flattening them via spatial compression.

Fei’er shone brightest, gracefully tracing silver magic arrays mid-air with her slender fingers, unleashing a tidal surge of brilliant silver lightning that engulfed countless Earth Dragons in an instant.

Once the silver lightning faded, nothing remained but a wasteland of charred, foul-smelling muck still belching black smoke.

The Lila sisters, shaking off their early nerves, soon displayed their prowess, diving into the fray alongside Leo Ray and the rest.

Don't forget, including the Lila sisters, our side boasted six Half-step Tier 7 powerhouses, backed by a squad of Tier 6 elites, creating an overwhelming presence.

Yet the enemies outnumbered us several-fold and had us fully surrounded.

After early heavy losses of parasitized Earth Dragons, the survivors adapted swiftly. Guided by more than ten Half-step Tier 7 Earth Dragons, they shattered our magic barrage and rushed us from every angle.

Some Earth Dragons even dove back underground, only to erupt right before our experts the next instant, slashing down with razor-sharp massive claws!

“Lord’s Shelter!”

Luckily, Little Jie reacted with lightning speed. A shimmering Absolute Defense Barrier sprang up, halting the lethal gust from those savage claws.

Empowered by Leo Ray's activation and the aid of our magic specialists, the barrier gained extra charge, vastly strengthening Little Jie's protective spell.

Thus, despite the foes swarming and pounding the Barrier Wall wildly, it held steadfast, repelling them entirely.

Under the Absolute Defense Barrier's protection, our fighters attacked with greater confidence. Energy tempests roared and magic detonations boomed, sending droves of Earth Dragons tumbling amid enraged screeches.

On the chaotic battlefield, though enemy casualties mounted, our warriors' faces turned graver still.

With many magic users now channeling into the defense, our offensive firepower dropped sharply. The foes' superior numbers and strength let them press like an endless wave.

Soon, more Earth Dragons hammered the Barrier Wall, causing its once-vibrant glow to fade, with web-like fissures creeping across its surface.

“Hahaha, ants remain ants—a pointless death throe!”

As our defenses waned, the harsh, raspy voice boomed through the cavern, declaring boldly: “When the barrier falls, death claims you all!”

The foe's cruel laughter chilled Lila, her pale brow slick with sweat; Kira fared no better beside her.

Before these Stone Giant sisters, no fewer than four Half-step Tier 7 Earth Dragons battered the Barrier Wall relentlessly, each clash booming with energy. Their vicious maws bared enormous jagged yellow fangs, drool spilling in horror—not counting the surrounding Tier 6 Earth Dragons.

Hostile slit pupils narrowed, locked unblinkingly on the sisters, marking them as prime targets.

Should the Barrier Wall fail, they'd confront foes twice their power: nightmarish Earth Dragons, while ever-wary of the “Corrosion” lurking behind.

As Stone Giants long rivaling Half-Titans, they dreaded no rival, but these threats far surpassed normal foes, verging on monstrous.

“Even then, we won't yield an inch!”

Lila gripped her longsword tight, bracing for doom.

This was the Stone Giants' core territory after all. A full outbreak of such “Corrosion” and parasitized Earth Dragons spelled total ruin.

In her resolve, Lila's eyes drifted to nearby Leo Ray, who had seemed masterfully in command moments before; but was this fight truly hopeless?

Still, holding off this vast “Corrosion” this long marked a legendary clash.

The battlefield offered no path to triumph—only mounting despair and terror closing in.

“No matter the outcome, battling to the last alongside a Monarch like Your Majesty leaves no regrets in life!”

As Lila's thoughts swirled, she noted Leo Ray's face remained utterly serene, devoid of worry or strain.

“Does Your Majesty hold some hidden ace? Or is it mere unyielding resolve in defeat?”

While Lila pondered, the raspy voice sneered again: “Pathetic ants, time to meet your end!”

Following the command, peripheral Earth Dragons roared, vaulted from the earth, and slammed into the Barrier Wall from above in a brutal assault!

Lila's heart plummeted at the sight.

The Absolute Defense Barrier teetered on collapse already; this fresh barrage would surely shatter it!

“As I’ve mentioned before, you are merely digging your own graves.”

Leo Ray's steady voice cut through at that instant.
