The enemy was extremely confident in their own combat airships. In the absence of any demigod-level experts, someone had managed to destroy their combat airship with a single blow.
A powerful attack in the form of a fire dragon—this was definitely the work of a formidable individual.
The enemy had never imagined that a defense tower was responsible.
They had never seen a defense tower unleash a fire dragon, nor had they ever heard of such a thing.
Because of this, the enemy's demigod-level expert, wanting to ascertain the strength of the one who attacked, directly entered Zhou Yan's territory intending to test the waters.
Upon seeing the enemy enter, Zhou Yan also decided to gauge the might of his own max-level defense towers.
Both sides were testing each other.
As the enemy stepped into Zhou Yan's territory, Zhou Yan did not give the order to attack. He waited until the enemy approached further, and when the demigod was only five hundred meters from the city walls.
Zhou Yan finally nodded, then said to his soldiers, "Come, show the enemy our defense towers."
"Yes, Lord!"
A soldier activated one of the max-level [Wind God Towers].
Upon sensing the enemy, the [Wind God Tower] immediately unleashed a terrifying storm's power. This was a max-level defense tower, and the terrifying wind fluctuation made even Zhou Yan feel a sense of dread.
"Whoosh!!!"
The [Wind God Tower] erupted with a horrifying storm fluctuation, instantly assailing the demigod-level expert. The terrifying divine might spread across the sky like a destructive tempest, causing the very void to tremble.
"What is this?"
The enemy's demigod-level expert immediately sensed the dire threat and became extremely uneasy. Upon seeing the storm, he felt completely unsettled and, at maximum speed, attempted to flee into the distance.
However, once the [Wind God Tower] attacked, how could it stop? Especially at such close range. Even a demigod-level expert's speed would be unable to escape the [Wind God Tower]'s attack.
The demigod expert also felt the terrifying storm relentlessly pursuing him. In a moment of crisis, he could only unleash his strongest defense to block it.
The enemy formed a dark barrier of light, shielding himself securely within.
The destructive storm from the [Wind God Tower] unleashed a world-shattering tempest, engulfing the demigod expert and then erupting with terrifying energy fluctuations.
"Crack!"
"How could this be!" The demigod expert was stunned.
This storm's power had actually torn through his defensive barrier. Naturally unwilling to be attacked like this, he immediately produced a powerful treasure, unleashing an even stronger Nether energy to protect himself.
"Boom!"
A world-destroying energy surge occurred, and the entire space seemed to fracture, being completely submerged. A tattered figure emerged from the explosion site, looking utterly battered, appearing to have only half a life left.
"Quick, quick, quick, leave..."
The demigod expert was caught by his allies, but in his final moments, he uttered his last words.
The [Wind God Tower] had actually killed a demigod with a single blow.
The terrifying attack left not only the enemy from the Netherworld stunned into silence but also Zhou Yan and his companions gaping in disbelief.
This was a demigod-level expert, yet he couldn't withstand a single strike from a max-level defense tower!
The power of the defense towers after their second evolution was truly horrifying.
"A demigod-level expert was annihilated just like that," Diao Chan exclaimed, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief, never imagining such an outcome.
"Too strong, too terrifying. A max-level defense tower just took down a demigod-level expert."
Zhen Mi was also finding it hard to believe. Demigod-level experts stood at the apex of power, yet they were defeated by a defense tower.
"So powerful!"
Sun Shangxiang also gazed in astonishment at the further evolved [Wind God Tower]. Its name was truly fitting; it was like a god of the wind, striking down the demigod expert with the might of a divine wind.
"Amazing!" Nie Xiaoqian also commented.
"Isn't our territory practically invincible now!" Zhao Min chuckled.
...
Upon witnessing his demigod fall so miserably, unable to even withstand a single blow, Harvey immediately clutched the demigod's corpse, looking fearfully at Zhou Yan's territory, and then shouted, "Retreat, retreat, retreat! Quickly withdraw!"
"Wuwuwu~~~~~"
The enemy's retreat horns sounded. The fifty-odd thousand strong army from the Netherworld, which had come with high spirits, now retreated in disgrace, not daring to even slightly offend Zhou Yan's territory.
But how could Zhou Yan let them go so easily? They came and went as they pleased, did they think he was a pushover?
Therefore, Zhou Yan gave the order, "Move the territory forward and just annihilate them!"
"Yes, Lord!" Shang Yang directly maneuvered the territory, and it began to move rapidly towards the enemy.
Upon hearing the sounds behind them, Harvey's expression of terror intensified, and he immediately shouted, "Faster, faster, run! Retreat quickly!"
How could Harvey not be afraid!
Three combat airships were annihilated by three fire dragons.
One demigod was also destroyed by a single storm.
This was clearly not something they could contend with.
He was terrified to death, wishing he had more legs to run with. The speed of Zhou Yan's territory had already surpassed its previous pace.
Every building, every attribute of the territory had been greatly enhanced, and its movement speed naturally increased.
Even the attack range of the territory's defense towers had been significantly boosted. Now, they could attack enemies ten kilometers away.
However, the current destructive power of the territory's defense towers was overwhelming. Shang Yang ordered the activation of just over a dozen defense towers.
The soldiers casually activated the attacks of a dozen defense towers.
And then, more fire dragons rained down upon the enemy.
"Dodge quickly!"
"Oh no, the fire dragons are attacking us!"
"Run! The fire dragons are here!"
"Boom!!!"
The terrifying fire dragons directly engulfed all enemies within several kilometers. No one could survive such a devastating attack; the power of the fire dragons was too immense.
Among these dozen or so defense towers were two [Ice Phoenix Towers]. Two ice phoenixes flew out from the towers, leaving behind a trail of chilling air wherever they went, freezing the surroundings into ice sculptures with their terrifying cold.
Countless enemies, while attempting to flee, were frozen into ice sculptures by the cold emitted by the ice phoenixes, their postures of escape preserved.
When the ice phoenixes truly descended, it was like a world of ice and snow. Everyone, everything—plants, massive rocks, and enemies—within several kilometers were frozen into ice sculptures.
Without exception, the area became a world of ice, a realm of chilling frost.
As the terrifying energy shockwaves subsided, all these ice sculptures shattered, reducing to fragments. The entire icy world was left with nothing.
All the massive rocks, plants, and enemies had turned into fragments.
