The huge spaceship that suddenly appeared above the city walls of Ellington attracted everyone's attention. It was a spaceship that could be identified at a glance as a product of dwarven technology. In order to reduce its weight, the twenty-five-meter-long body of the spaceship was made of wood, with a small number of metal reinforcing links in the middle.
Although it was made of wood, it was very hard to begin with, and after special processing, the ironwood was not afraid of the attacks of ordinary magical beasts. It was very durable.
As soon as the spaceship appeared, the dwarves who came with Klotto jumped onto it and spread out in an orderly manner, entering their respective positions.
"Woo woo —"
With a humming sound, steam began to spurt out from a chimney at the back of the spaceship. As the wind-powered magic energy engine obtained from Tang En was insufficient, the lack of power was made up for by the steam engine.
The propellers in the wings that extended out from both sides of the spaceship began to rotate rapidly under the combined effect of the magic energy engine and the steam engine, providing more buoyancy for the Heaven-Breaker.
Although they asked Tang En to provide some magical support, the Heaven-Breaker's own buoyancy could only keep it afloat in the air. If they wanted to fly higher and faster, they would need more magical support or more power.
Originally, Klotto did not want to expose the experimental product so quickly, but after receiving the report from Nokia, his blood rushed to his head and he did not care so much anymore!
If he could not convince the green-skinned, big-eared monsters, what face would he have left as a master craftsman?
"This, this is —" Gillian's eyes widened.
Jia Lian's eyes widened. After seeing the spaceship, the cigar in his mouth fell to the ground.
"Shocked, right? Kneel before the greatness of dwarven technology! "
Klotto laughed wildly as he jumped onto the Heaven-Breaker. He ran to the control panel and shouted, "Heaven-Breaker, set sail!"
"Beep — Beep beep —"
Amidst the long sound of the horn, the Heaven-Breaker drove away from the city walls and slowly ascended.
"Altitude 500 — 510 — 520 —"
"Current hull angle of 1.5 degrees, power output of the left engine reduced by 1%!"
"Flight speed 30, 31, 32 …"
"All personnel in position!"
"All weapons systems are online. Prepare to meet the enemy!"
Amidst the crisp sounds of friction, the outer hull of the Heaven Breaker quickly opened up, and muskets extended out from within. On the lower hull, thick cannon muzzles that did not look good popped out.
"My earth …"
Brian's eyes widened. "That thing can't be a magic crystal cannon, right? Bring the magic crystal cannons up to the sky and use them? "
Brian's words reminded the people around him. Depp and the others couldn't help but shudder. Rumor had it that the Magic Crystal Cannons were capable of destroying a small hill with a single shot. They were incredibly powerful. If such a weapon was brought up into the sky, would the ordinary soldiers on the ground still be able to survive?
Depp and the others thought of what had happened before. It was just like how the Lord of Gehenna had used a hot-air balloon loaded with missiles to bombard the stone giant. Once the Heaven-Breaker occupied the air and had the ability to fly, the soldiers on the ground who could not fly would be a joke.
They didn't have much time to speculate. The Heaven Breaker was so large that it attracted the attention of the flying magical beasts. Tang En wanted to see just how powerful this thing that Clotho had made was, so he didn't stop the magical beasts.
Clotho shouted, "Attack, Heaven Breaker!"
Bang bang bang!
The muskets spat out tongues of flame and shot the bullets out. Some of the weaker magical beasts were instantly reduced to a bloody mess, while others were unharmed. Their sharp teeth and claws tore at the Heaven Breaker's hull without hesitation.
The claws of the magical beasts only left shallow marks on the ironwood hull. When the first round of muskets was reloaded, the second round of muskets was already out, ready to take turns.
Tang En didn't know whether to laugh or cry. You're already in the sky, and you're still reloading muskets?
Before Tang En could complain, Clotho unleashed another big move. He laughed maniacally and pressed the first red button next to him. "Let's see how powerful Gnome technology is!"
Missiles suddenly shot out from the black muzzles under the Heaven Breaker's hull. After these missiles ejected from the muzzles, they immediately accelerated and blasted the magical beasts who couldn't dodge in time. Under the immense power of the missiles, even the magical beasts who weren't afraid of muskets were blown to pieces.
"What the f * ck …"
Tang En almost fainted from holding his breath. Just now, he wanted to mock them for using pre-loaded guns, but in the end, they even had missiles?!
Such a ridiculous technology tree probably only existed in the Prandal Gnomes and Gnomes!
After firing a dozen missiles consecutively and shooting down a dozen magical beasts, Klotto pressed the second red button. Panting heavily, he growled, "Goblin Bomb? What kind of technology is that?! I'll let you see what technology is — launch! Gnome degeneration ray! "
Clotho's voice was broadcasted through the Heaven Breaker's loudspeaker. Everyone knew that he was talking to Galian.
Galian's face turned even greener.
The bottom compartment of the Heaven-Breaker suddenly opened, and a spherical probe wrapped in multiple layers of coils extended out. As it was charged with an unknown energy, the coils began to emit a bright light, and a surge of energy gathered on the spherical probe. Then, with a sizzling sound, it shot toward the ground. Then, the ray slowly moved, expanding its attack range!
On the ground were the magical beasts that were charging toward Ellington from the Emerald Forest. They didn't even need to aim from the sky, and they wouldn't shoot with their eyes closed. After the center of the magical beast tide was hit by the gnome degeneration ray, the magical beasts suddenly froze for a moment, then struggled to escape from the ray.
However, before they could run far, their bodies began to shrink rapidly. Their ferocious and sharp claws began to retract, and their fierce faces began to become young and tender. Soon, the magical beasts that were hit reverted from their mature stage to their infant stage.
"F * ck!"
The stunned Tang En couldn't help but swear. Although he had long known that the technology tree of the dwarves and goblins had become extremely crooked because of the big explosion, wasn't it too ridiculous to have pre-loaded guns and cannons on one side, and missiles and a degeneration ray that could reverse the course of life on the other side?
But at this time, Tang En also noticed that the more powerful the magical beasts, the less they retreated. One of the magical beasts that had reached the seventh grade reverted to its infant stage after being hit by the ray, but still maintained the strength of the third grade.
It seemed that the gnome degeneration ray was not invincible. The more powerful one was, the more resistant it would be.
Tang En had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that after a magical beast was hit by the degeneration ray, not only did it not degenerate, but it also became abnormally violent. Its body expanded at least three times!
"Clotho!?"
"Don't worry, science is always full of surprises!"
Clotho laughed wildly and pressed another button. "Send it to its death!"
A huge missile locked onto the Demonic Beast from the bottom of the cabin. The missile whistled through the air and blasted the Demonic Beast into pieces!
Then, the gnome degeneration ray swept across the front, while bombs were dropped from the back.
Although the dwarves disdained making bombs and didn't play as many tricks as the goblins, it wasn't that they didn't know how to do it. The magical beasts affected by the gnome degeneration ray couldn't escape before the bombs that fell on them completely buried their lives.
"This … This is gnome technology …" Locke couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Locke and the others couldn't help but gulp. They subconsciously thought about what they would do if they encountered such an enemy on the battlefield.
In the end, he could only come to a conclusion: if there wasn't a powerful Oracle with the ability to fly, he could only wait for death.
"Perhaps this is the future of war."
Fiona was deep in thought. Previously, Tang En had briefly mentioned the importance of air supremacy in war, but Fiona didn't quite understand it. The slow movement of the hot air balloon didn't shock her much.
But after seeing the performance of the Heaven-Breaker, she realized that the lord's foresight was still frighteningly accurate.
"Hmph! It's just a crooked degeneration ray! In the end, aren't we still using explosions to deal with the enemy? "
Jialian snorted coldly and secretly wiped his cold sweat. The enemy was the gnome leader, and he didn't have any powerful reinforcements. He was a little flustered.
He forced himself to say, "That's why I say that explosions are romantic. My bombs are definitely not inferior to those ridiculously slow flying machines!"
Jialian shouted, "Brats, do it!"
Originally, they were just ordinary employees of the Star Diamond Bank's Ellington branch, but under Jialian's command, they all turned into professional arms masters. They opened the boxes and quickly assembled various launchers. In a short while, the wall was filled with all kinds of launchers.
The goblins loaded the projectile bombs (shells) into the launchers and adjusted the firing angle so that the bombs would fall into the magical beasts.
"Everyone is ready to load!"
"I'll let you see the greatness of goblin technology!"
Jialian screamed and waved his hand. "Fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of deafening sounds rang out as the cannonballs were fired. But what shocked everyone was that a few of the cannonballs exploded before they were even fired!
The sudden explosion on the wall scared Fiona so much that she broke out in a cold sweat. She looked at the boxes of bombs placed next to her and felt her heart skip a beat.
If it weren't for Grandia's quick reaction, there would have been casualties because of Jialian before the magical beast horde could break through the wall.
Loke, who was lying on the ground in a sorry state, was shrouded in a surging green light. He couldn't help but shout, "What's going on!?"
After having the other goblins carry the unlucky ones who were hit in close range away for treatment, Jialian wiped his blackened face and said matter-of-factly, "It's a bomb. It's normal for it to explode. At least the effect is good, isn't it?"
After a round of bombardment, the first wave of magical beasts was defeated before they even entered the trap area.
