"Pay attention to your defense." Shouted Broy. His Origin Energy rose and spread all over his body. At the same time, an engraving appeared, activating the ability "Focus". The Highlanders dragged their warhammers and suddenly sprinted forward, treating their opponent's rain of bullets as nothing.
In fact, the power of the bullets fired by the flintlock/gun was limited. Those metal pellets were unable to break through Broy's protective Origin Energy, and at best, they could only create some flesh wounds. Unless he shot a rifle at the Highlanders' eyes, he would not be able to inflict fatal damage.
As for the Blazing Battle Soldiers, they directly activated their shields. Since it was impossible to assemble the Honor Barrier while moving, there was no need to use a defensive barrier like the Honor Barrier in the face of ordinary fire/guns.
After blocking a round of shots, the Blazing Battle Soldiers began to counterattack. The Flame Fighting Rifle roared like a ferocious beast, and the dull and rough sound of gunfire caused Mo Gu's heart to skip a beat. He had never heard such a gloomy voice before. When he turned to look at Broy, he saw the Flame Fighting Rifle sweeping out whips of fire, easily sweeping the Raging Thunder Knight off his horse. The armor on the Knight's body could not stop the bullets from penetrating, and their level six or seven Origin Energy was not enough to defend against the powerful bullets fired by the Flame Fighting Rifle.
However, in the blink of an eye, the Fury Thunder Knight Squadron had already been completely wiped out. Only the captain's skill was decent. As soon as he saw that the situation was not right, he got off his horse and rolled out, dodging the roaring flame whip of the Flame Fighting Rifle.
Just as the captain stood up in shock, his head. Like a mountain, the captain screamed. He rolled horizontally with all his might and the warhammer smashed into the ground. A terrifying impact spread along the ground, bouncing the captain up. Broy chuckled and waved his warhammer. The captain raised his saber and let out a miserable scream, but he was swept away by Broy's hammer with his saber.
"Charge!" Broy roared, directing the Blazing Battle Soldiers to advance towards Storm City's artillery position.
Mo Gu snorted and shouted, "Stop them."
Two infantry squadrons and a fire/gun squad left the formation. The fire/gunner was well-trained to load and fire their guns to cover their own Gale infantry. The Blazing Battle Soldiers split up seven people to shoot at the enemy. The Flame Fighting Rifles in their hands were far more powerful than Storm City's Flintlock Rifles in terms of power and range. Even though there weren't many people, the firepower they formed suppressed Storm City.
Bloy took the opportunity to lead the remaining soldiers into the enemy's infantry. The Hammer of Extinction danced like a wheel, and the Highlanders opened the way for the soldiers like a human-shaped storm. The soldiers in the rear, escorted by Bloy's human-shaped tank, were able to pull away and shoot. The flickering flames pushed forward, and very quickly, they charged out of the scattered infantry regiment.
At this time, they were very close to the artillery position. Mo Gu could no longer sit still, personally leading an elite troop out. Broy stopped and chuckled, "Blow up their cannons."
The Flame Battle Soldiers took out grenades one after another and threw them at the artillery position. The grenades flew over Mo Gu and the others' heads and landed on the artillery position. Flames flickered and explosions rang out incessantly. Not only did the flames engulf the cannons of Storm City, they also blew up the artillerymen to pieces.
Mo Gu looked at all of this in disbelief. He didn't even know what Broy and the others had thrown out.
After a successful attack, Broy immediately retreated with his men. At the same time, Roy, who was in charge of attracting Storm City's attention, led the remaining cavalry back to Sur City. Mo Gu rushed back to the artillery position and looked at the cannons that had been blown to pieces. After a moment of silence, he said gloomily, "Everyone attack!"
Roy returned to the wall and looked at the enemy troops that were pressing down on the city. He knew that the next battle would not be as easy as before, but blowing up the other party's cannons could be considered to have relieved the pressure on the defensive line. However, because Sur City did not have an arsenal, the ammunition of the Blazing Battle Soldiers had been constantly being consumed. That round of attacks just now had consumed a lot of energy. From the looks of it, in another two or three rounds of attacks, the standard bullets would be exhausted.
"We need an arsenal." Roy murmured.
He exhaled, focused his attention on the current situation, and began to set up defenses. He decided to adopt a strategy of defending. Even though Sur City had a greater advantage in terms of high-end combat power, the lack of ordinary soldiers was an obvious shortcoming. Previously, they had already recruited a group of recruits, but their numbers were still far inferior to Storm City's.
The only thing they could rely on was the defensive power provided by the raised defensive wall and the firepower of the Blazing Battle Soldiers.
The battle soon began.
Without the support of the cannons, Storm City could only forcefully break through the defensive wall of Sur City. Mo Gu used a conventional tactic. The infantry regiment acted as the main force of the attack, while the fire/spear squad provided firepower support from the rear. The highly mobile cavalry harassed and guerrilla attacks, and there was nothing to speak of. However, Mo Gu didn't need any special tactics to deal with Sur City, which was inferior to his own. As long as he fought steadily, he could slowly grind away Sur City's strength.
However, the tenacity displayed by Sur City also left a deep impression on Mo Gu. All of their soldiers were hiding behind the towering defensive wall, only using the firing holes to attack the troops below the city. Mo Gu was glad that Sur City did not have defensive firepower like cannons. The threat posed by the few heavy crossbows they had was limited. On the contrary, Mo Gu was very concerned about those extremely powerful guns/guns.
Whenever the unique sound of these guns/guns rang out, Mo Gu would always look nervously at the battlefield. At this time, he would see a large number of infantry swept to the ground. There was nothing he could do about it. After all, the other party was condescending. If it was the previous three-meter defensive wall, Mo Gu could have sent his elite warriors to cross the wall to kill the enemy, create chaos, and finally open the city gate.
However, now that the other party had doubled the height of the defensive wall, they had to use the city climbing tools in order to achieve their strategic goals. However, every time the Gale Corps tried to climb the city, they would be swept down by the terrifying fire/guns of the other party. Mo Gu had no choice but to order the Raging Thunder Knight to take over the work of the Gale Infantry.
As a result, the pressure on Sur City increased greatly.
Those Raging Thunder Knight were generally at the sixth or seventh level. They were unable to jump over the six-meter-tall defensive wall, but as long as they had simple tools to borrow strength, they could quickly climb up. Especially a few Knight captains. They didn't even need tools. They could quickly climb up the defensive wall with only the swords and sabers in their hands.
As soon as the enemy Knight climbed onto the defensive wall, the original soldiers of Sur City were no match for them. Blood began to bloom on the city, and Roy made a prompt decision to join the battle with Broy, Belmore, and the others. Even Lucy and Edward participated in the battle. At this time, the war had finally unfolded in full swing.
The surroundings were filled with shouts of killing, but Roy's state of mind was abnormally calm. The battlefield was his stage. Here, Roy was quiet and calm. He was like a killing machine, his warhammer flying and his hand cannon rumbling, smashing the enemies to death one by one. Only in the splattering of blood could he find the meaning of his existence.
As a result, a smile gradually appeared on his solemn face. In the eyes of his opponent, this smile was undoubtedly the sinister smile of a devil.
After sending another Raging Thunder Knight flying, a man with an ancient face flashed in front of Roy's eyes. Legg looked at the gray-eyed man in front of him with a solemn expression. Legg felt immense pressure from him. He took a deep breath, and a burst of Origin Energy flames surged from the Knight's sword. He immediately hugged the sword and smashed it towards Roy.
The light patterns on Roy's back flashed, forming an engraving that occupied almost the entire back. It was a bust of a man holding a warhammer and shield. This was the King of the Battlefield. After this engraving appeared, Roy's speed suddenly doubled. That was the ability generated by the engraving, "Charge". It increased Roy's speed, and when Roy sprinted in a straight line, his speed could increase by three times!
Legg's heart sank in the face of the sudden addition of Roy. However, he did not panic. The Knight swung his sword towards Roy's chest.
The warhammer in Roy's hand suddenly swept across and collided with the Knight's sword. The collision of the Origin Energy of the two sides formed an invisible impact, causing the nearby soldiers of both sides to lose their footing. Legg thought to himself, "Barbaric fellow." He lowered his body and pounced forward, intending to get close to Roy so that he wouldn't be able to wield the power of the long-handled warhammer. Unexpectedly, just as he pounced forward, he suddenly saw Roy raise his right arm. Only then did Legg realize that this fellow's right hand had actually been modified into some kind of muzzle.
The markings on the cannon lit up, and a ball of light spat out from the muzzle of the cannon. Immediately, the defensive wall exploded with a rumble.
Legg flew back in the flames of the explosion. Roy pounced out of the flames and struck at his chest with his warhammer. The hammer carried an invisible force field, so heavy that Legg could not breathe. Captain Knight defended with all his might, but he was still smashed down the wall by Roy's hammer.
Legg fell to the ground and rolled a few times to remove the fall, but he still spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked at the city wall hatefully and wanted to climb the city wall to fight again, but he heard the signal to retreat. He could only look at Roy unwillingly, mount his horse with his sword, and retreat with the army.
In this battle, Storm City had left behind nearly two hundred corpses, but they were unable to knock on the city gates of Sur City. Sur City had also sacrificed many soldiers, three of whom would never be able to return to Earth. While Roy was counting the losses, he silently took off the equipment of the three Warriors. Their magical equipment hadn't suffered much damage, and they believed that when Allen returned, they would be able to repair it and put it back into use.
In the wilderness of Sur City, Storm City's army began to set up camp, putting on a long siege. No matter what, today's battle had finally ended, and the soldiers on both sides heaved a sigh of relief. However, when night fell, some starry fluorescent lights began to float in the wilderness. The veterans knew that wild beasts at night were sometimes more dangerous than humans, so the soldiers on duty did not dare to relax.
In the forest less than a kilometer away from Sur City, Bai Bai drilled out of the edge of the forest and looked at the flames outside Sur City from afar. That was where Storm City's camp was located.
