As the Mana Cannons and other Artillery sounded in the background, instantly, the projectiles fell onto the hordes of the Monstrous Spiders advancing at the walls of the Zephystrnad City, tearing the Monstrous Spiders and Ettercaps into the shreds with each explosion.
Basically, the scenario was very similar to the last invasion attempt when the Drows let out several tens of thousands of Monstrous Spiders at the Zephystrand City, though right now, Samiel was really wondering what their strategy was.
This time, even though they were advancing at the City, it was in much lower numbers than before, like they were just testing the ground. After a few minutes of bombardment from the Magetech Artillery, Samiel looked more carefully and suddenly saw something weird about one Monstrous Spider that was running much slower than the rest of his kin.
"Yvraine looked at that one."
Samiel motioned for Yvraine as he used his Mana to mark the Spider he was talking about, as suddenly Yvraine noticed that something was strapped under the belly of the Monstrous Spider.
"Did you notice something?"
Samiel asked when he saw her distressed expression, as she immediately ran away towards the position of the Mana Canon.
"I need the show it to Master Goldengrog."
She said before she ran away, as suddenly Samiel had a very bad feeling about the entire thing.
Yvraine ran through the walls, arriving at the location where the Canon Master Brigric Goldengrog was coordinating the artillery efforts in a small field center, which was built in of the Mage Towers.
"Master Goldengrog, please look at the marked Monstrous Spider."
She stated as she gave him the magetech telescope, and not even several seconds later, all color drained from his face because he recognized the thing, which was under the belly of the Monstrous Spider, confirming Yvraine's worries about the upcoming battle.
"It's the Gnome Explosives!"
Shouted the Brigric Goldengrog because the small box strapped under the belly of the Monstrous Spider was a piece of explosives made by Gnomes. Similar to dwarves, who were experts in blacksmithing, Magetech, and runesmithing, the Gnomes were tinkers who built various "crazy" weapons, and most importantly, they were famous manufacturers of explosives.
"So their plan was..."
Before Yvraine could finish the sentence, an enormous "boom" was heard from the outside as something exploded by coming into contact with the walls of Zephystrand City. Fortunately, the walls still stood, but some slight cracks started showing already, as the explosion was comparable to the 7th Level Spell, which by itself was pretty frightening.
"Fortunately, all the walls are made with pout best materials and are engraved with runes, but they won't be held indefinitely if more and more of such explosions occur. In the end, this City wasn't built to defend against such destructive power."
Stated Canon Master Goldengrog, as it was indeed the truth. While the Zephystrand City had defensive formations that could protect it against the power of the Legendaries, it didn't mean that the City Walls and others were the same.
If more explosions like these occurred, then it would probably be possible to breach the walls, which could be problematic, but at the same time, if they turned on some of the Spell Formations, then they could isolate the places where the civilians live, so the Magical Beasts won't be able to attack there.
Unfortunately, that would also mean that all soldiers and personnel would be cut out from resources and other things needed by erecting the defensive spell formation.
"Then start firing at the Spiders with the explosives! If we hit them, then the explosives would take down everything around them, right?"
Yvraine proposed as the Canon Master Goldengrog shook his head in denial.
"It's not that simple... goblins made them probably in a very specific way, that even if they are destroyed, they won't explode to cause the collateral damage in case the enemies found about them during the battle. Probably a collaborative work between Goblins and Druagar, the Grey Dwarves of the Underdark..."
While Yvraine was angry hearing that, there was nothing she could do about it.
"Then immediately order all Cannonneers to search for weirdly walking Monstrous Spiders who have some machinery strapped onto them and kill them with the highest priority; we can't that will be breached; that would create too much inconvenience."
She ordered before she left the mage tower as Canon Master Brigric Goldengrog went to carry out the order to thwart the scheme of the Drows to breach the Walls. If the walls were to be breached, then the situation would turn downside because they would be forced to activate the defensive formations.
Or to mobilize the Silver-Tier and Gold-Tier Professionals in the Zephystrand City to deal with the threat, but both of these solutions would inevitably be detrimental to the true purpose of the Zephystrand City, which was to train the new generations of the Silvermoon Knight Order and Military Officers of the Imperial Army.
Meanwhile, Yvraine was gone; Samiel kept observing the hordes of the Magical Beasts, searching for the Drows or any worthy opponent, before he chose to participate himself, as he started casting one spell after another.
Soon enough, not even one minute later, he became a machine that was literarily spamming 1st to 3rd Level Spells, all offensive spells from the Necromancy Arts, Void Magic, and now, even from the newly learned Winter Magic.
Hundreds of the Monstrous Spiders fell to his exploding Void Strikes, which alone were able to bring down entire buildings with their crushing power of the Void, or were pierced by conjured Bone Spears and Ice Weapons through the Winter Magic Spells.
Coupled with the passive appliance of the [Winter Ruler], each one of the Ice Weapons was extremely devastating, sometimes skewering even several Monstrous Spiders at the same time. After several minutes of repeating the same thing, Samiel turned his attention to the Ettercaps, which were hiding behind the Monstrous Spiders.
Contrary to the last time, now, they were behaving very smartly, which meant that there were Drows directly on the battlefield controlling them actively; that was why the Ettercaps, especially the Bronze-Tier ones, were basically hiding when they were controlling the Monstrous Spiders.
"How is it going?"
Suddenly Samiel just heard Yvraine's voice, as she had just returned back, and saw him casting one spell after another. However, that was to be expected because his Mana was really frightening; in terms of purity and density, it didn't lose to even Gold-Tier Professionals. He had a tremendous amount of it on top of everything.
"Good, I already killed several hundreds of them, not like that would make any difference though... or yes... dunno."
Samiel answered with a bored voice as he kept spamming spells, while Yvraine's brows twitched because he killed several hundred Magical Beast alone within just several minutes; basically, his killing efficiency was higher than even several of the Mana Cannons put together.
Yvraine didn't say anything and just stood behind Samiel, together with Estrid, who looked bored as hell, because he ordered her to stand by and do nothing, as she would be their "secret weapon", due to her destructive abilities.
If it came to the area of destruction abilities, then Estrid would be superior to Samiel, just because of her species as a Red Dragon. Especially if she unleashed her Dragon Breath to the maximum, she could scorch everything in her path.
Suddenly, Samiel aimed one of his Bone Spear at the Bronze-Tier Ettercaps, who made the grave mistake of showing himself and immediately shot the Bone Spear at the enemy. To his shock and surprise, the Ettercap deflected the Bone Spear with his bone, suffering only some superficial injuries.
Nothing weird, considering that the Boen Spear was just a 1st Level Spell of the Necromancy Arts, so it shouldn't be able to even hurt the Bronze-Tier Monster, even with Samiel's overwhelming raw power and understanding of the Necromancy Arts.
"Hmm..."
He observed the Ettercap as he conjured another Bone Spear, but this time he attempted one of the forms of Metamagic, which was called Spell Fusion, which allowed the caster to fuse compatible spells to increase the power of the final spell or just to incorporate needed elements and attributes of two spells.
As he conjured the Bone Spear, a thin layer of frost started appearing around the Bone Spear, and it grew to a thick layer of Ice, fusing the 1st Level Spell Bone Spear with the 1st Level Spell of the Winter Magic Ice Spear.
When the spell was done, he shot the Frost-Bone Spear at the Ettercap, whom he previously attacked, who arrogantly thought it head it, thinking that it was the same attack which he once defended against, so in the end, he ended with his head pierced like a kebab.
Insta-kill.
A satisfied smile appeared over Samiel's face when he finished off the Bronze-Tier Ettercap, as he suddenly heard the notification of the Akashic Records.
[Metamagic Skill - Spell Fusion has been recorded to the Record of the User Samiel Zentaur.]
He read the notification as he hurriedly opened the record and looked at the description of the Metamagic Skill. It was rare for the Casters to learn one, and Samiel learned it practically by chance, as she almost innately used the Spell Fusion Technique.
[1st Level Spell Fusion - User, can Fuse Spells of the 1st Level if they are compatible enough.]
"Hmm... I should get the Proficiency in this up really fast..."
He then muttered as he started casting several Frost-Bone Spears simultaneously and shooting them towards the Bronze-Tier Ettercaps. Each Frost-Bone Spear that hit the Bronze-Tier Ettercap achieved the wished result of the death of the target. At the same time, the Monstrous Spiders, under the command of the killed Ettercaps, started getting violent and uncontrollable.
Unfortunately, not enough to affect the entire battlefield, but even this was enough, as the part of the battlefield was getting disrupted slowly yet steadily.
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 1%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 3%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 5%.]

[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 10%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 4%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 8%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 7%.]
[Profficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion has been increased by 9%.]
Samiel got a ton of notifications from the Akashic Records while feeling that his Proficiency with the Spell Fusion was going up and up, as his casting speed had lowered tremendously, and now he was shooting one Frost-Bone Spear after another.
Just within five minutes, he managed to increase his Proficiency with the Metamagic Skill - 1st Level Spell Fusion from 1% to 56%, and he predicted that today, he would be able to fuse at least 2nd Level Spells together with this tempo.
