What happened?

Within the palace, Emperor Yassin immediately sensed the anomaly. His expression changed drastically; his usually calm face finally revealed an indescribable look of shock. With a flash, he transformed into a streak of light, piercing the dome of his bedchamber and hurtling towards the Central Magic Tower's defenses. Welcome to reading.

"Hahaha, Yassin, you only realize it now? Don't you think it's too late?" A triumphant and arrogant laugh echoed through the sky like rolling thunder.

It was none other than Alves, the Demigod- level powerhouse from Barcelona.

Alves, short and stocky with a full beard, stood in the void, blocking Emperor Yassin's path, his blue eyes flashing with a mad and violent aura, his body radiating Dou Qi qi.

The speed of Demigod- level powerhouse is astonishing. Without the protection of the [ Protection of Mother Earth ] magic shield, he can arrive above the capital city with just a thought.

All of this is clearly under the control of the Barcelona team.

"Roll!"

Emperor Yassin, unwilling to waste time, roared and instantly activated his Sword Domain. He formed a hand seal, and a massive light sword shot out from his arm, tearing through the void and brutally slashing down on Alves's head.

"Hahaha, you're only going to attack Demigod, I'm going to stop you, what can you do about it?"

Alves laughed triumphantly and released his domain power, crossing his arms above his head to form a cross. A giant orange shield materialized, its surface shimmering with strange runes.

boom!!!

The lightsaber and shield collided with a deafening roar.

"Haha... Huh? How is this possible?" Alves was smug just a second ago, but his expression suddenly changed drastically the next second.

The orange shield above his head shattered, and an indescribable sharpness sliced through his defensive domain, striking his body and slamming him directly into the ground, creating a bottomless crater. The surrounding buildings and houses crumbled and shattered like collapsed sand sculptures.

Despite both being Demigod- level powerhouses, Emperor Yassin managed to send Alves flying with a single move.

With no time to spare for his opponent who had been knocked away, Emperor Yassin was extremely anxious. He rushed to the collapsing Central First Magic Tower, determined to repair it before the magic array was completely destroyed. Otherwise, the ancient city of Saint Petersburg would be utterly finished.

Unfortunately, some people don't want him to have his way.

"Halt, this road is blocked." A calm, indifferent voice rang out.

The second Barcelona Demigod- level powerhouse, the burly and taciturn Masiqielanuo, tore through space and stepped out of the void, blocking his path.

call out--!

Emperor Yassin did not utter a word, but acted immediately.

His Sword Domain had been expanded to its limit. With a wave of his hand, countless lightsabers carrying destructive power condensed in front of him and instantly rained down on Masiqielanuo like a storm.

The latter dared not slack off in the slightest and did its best to expand its territory.

A series of orange-yellow ancient mountains, shimmering with runes, appeared before him. This person's domain power was more defensive than Alves's, and was also more powerful and resilient.

Boom boom boom boom!!!

The energy fluctuations that could be broken continued to explode in the void, engulfing Masiqielanuo within them.

Emperor Yassin didn't linger at all. He flashed around the explosion and quickly approached the Central Magic Tower.

but--

Two more figures stood in the void, unleashing immense power to block him.

It's Busquets and Pedro.

The last two Barcelona Demigod- level powerhouses.

At the same time, Alves and Masiqielanuo, the two Demigod- level powerhouses who had been shaken off earlier, slowly surrounded Emperor Yassin from behind, forming an encirclement from all sides.

The five Demigod- level powerhouses radiated dazzling light, like five Sun appearing in the sky at the same time, illuminating the entire city of Saint Petersburg as if it were daytime. Below, in the endless buildings, countless civilians, some even naked, ran out of their homes in panic, some even trampling each other.

Flames were already burning on the city walls on all four sides in the distance. Several sections of the walls had obvious gaps and collapses. Countless Barcelona soldiers rushed in through the gaps like a flood. They were like a group of ruthless demons. Wherever they went, there were screams, flames, blood and corpses.

Emperor Yassin sighed softly to himself.

We were just one step away from achieving our goal, but unexpectedly, a mishap occurred here.

How exactly did the people of Barcelona destroy the Central Magic Tower?

Why didn't the elite troops, magic corps, and various magic circles, mechanisms, and traps stationed there give any warning or give them any time to react?

By this time, it was all too late.

What puzzled him even more was why Hasselbaink, Lampard, and other Extreme Dao experts hadn't appeared yet. Such a commotion had erupted in the city; they shouldn't have been unaware... What was going on?

"What happened? The [ Protection of Mother Earth ] magic circle..."

At the Second Prince's residence, Dominguez, wearing only a thin white robe, rushed barefoot out of his bedchamber. He looked up at the orange-yellow protective shield fragments falling and disappearing from the sky, his shock beyond words.

At the same time, the entire Second Prince's residence was thrown into complete chaos.

People were jolted awake with screams, frantically dressing and searching for weapons and armor.

The guards arrived at the Second Prince's bedchamber immediately, surrounded Dominguez, and his personal guards brought him the Second Prince's magical armor, weapons, and other equipment, helping Dominguez put them on right away.

"Your Highness, Second Prince..." A knight in crimson armor rushed in. " The Central Magic Tower has collapsed! Granero sent me to inform Your Highness that Saint Petersburg is beyond containment. Please immediately break out to the north and head towards Chambord City..."

It was the trusted knight Dominguez had sent back to deliver the message.

"Where are the Granero?" Dominguez had gradually calmed down by this time.

"My lord said he wanted to atone for his sins, so he led his men into the collapsing, exploding magic tower, intending to perish together with the Barcelona spies..." the knight said, his face already filled with sorrow. "Lord Granero... I'm afraid he's already..."

"He won't die!" Dominguez shouted firmly. "I won't run away either. Stand up and fight with me!"

As they were speaking, a loud bang came from the sky. Everyone looked up and saw Emperor Yassin Alves away with One Sword strike.
