Massive boulders and ballista bolts raced towards the city walls, only to shatter against an ice blue barrier that flickered into existence around the entire city.
The barrier resembled ice crystals with its interlocked fractal design, the enchanted siege weapons, despite their power, were unable to do more than cause the barrier to flair with power at the various impact points.
The ponderous trebuchets were being fired in a staggered time frame, so that one boulder slammed into the defensive barrier every few seconds.
The ballista bolts on the other hand were firing in grouped sections spread around the rear of the army. They fired in groups of 5, each grouping targeting a singular point of the wall, with 10 such ballistas targeting the barrier section protecting the main eastern gate leading into the city.
