“Oh? What is it?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray’s face hidden behind the helmet showed a curious expression.
“It’s a Magic Cannon!” On the other side, Scarlett’s slightly broken whisper came immediately into his ear.
Although he couldn’t see her expression, Leo Ray still discerned a touch of solemnity in her tone.
Next, through Scarlett’s explanation, Leo Ray learned about it.
In plain terms, the Magic Cannon in this world is a kind of specially-made magic amplifier.
After injecting a large amount of magic power, it can be fired.
In terms of range and power, it is far superior to ordinary spells of equal magic power consumption.
Moreover, depending on the magic array embedded in the Magic Cannon itself, different effects can be produced, but all without exception can cause terrifying damage.
Another disadvantage of the Magic Cannon is that, after one launch, it requires a long cooldown time, and is unable to be used continuously.
Lastly, according to Scarlett’s judgment, based on this abnormal aura and the opponent’s strength.
This Magic Cannon should be a Tier 2 Magic Cannon capable of firing powerful Tier 2 magic.
Although under normal circumstances, it cannot cause fatal damage to Tier 3 powerhouses and above.
However, it poses a deadly threat to soldiers below Tier 2.
The reasons for arriving at this conclusion are as follows.
Firstly, Magic Cannons themselves are very rare, have very high production costs, and seldom do Tier 3 and higher versions appear.
Secondly, the magic power required to charge Tier 3 and above Magic Cannons, and their cooldown times, are far higher than Tier 2.
For this battlefield where the vast majority of soldiers are below Tier 2, the Tier 2 Magic Cannon is naturally more efficient.
At this point, Leo Ray couldn’t help but take a few steps back, even though the amulet he wore on his chest, the [Blessing of the Southern Cross], could perfectly block one fatal attack below Tier 5.
However, that was a life-saving charm, which required a 24-hour charging time to take effect again, and naturally couldn’t be wasted recklessly.
On the other side, the five attacking formations led by were already approaching the range of the enemy’s fortress.
Immediately afterward, accompanied by a loud rumbling sound.
An inconspicuous black dot suddenly appeared in the sky above the frontmost formation of heavy knights and a formation of light cavalry.
In an instant, before the Saint Night Soldiers who were preparing to siege could react.
The black dot expanded abruptly, rapidly enveloping more than fifty soldiers within it, forming a massive, dark, semi-transparent sphere that covered the sky.
Perplexed, the soldiers under the shadow barely had time to look up.
The next second, the huge black sphere rapidly began to contract inward, vanishing before everyone’s eyes, taking more than fifty soldiers with it, leaving behind only some severed limbs at the edge that had yet to be completely covered.
As all this happened in the blink of an eye, when everyone came back to their senses.
More than twenty Tier 2 Heavy Knights and thirty-plus Tier 1 Light Cavalry had already been completely devoured and disappeared without a trace by that black hole-like object earlier.
Since the area in front of the fortress was a depression.
Leo Ray, who was at the end of the line, saw this scene clearly as well. “Well, well, is this the power of the Magic Cannon?”
After a brief moment of shock, Leo Ray swallowed, involuntarily licking his lips, and revealed an eager expression: “I wonder if this thing can be upgraded? If I get a chance later, I must get my hands on this Magic Cannon.”
“My Lord, that was a Tier 2 Spatial Magic: Black Hole!”
On the other side, Scarlett’s somewhat tense voice came through to Leo Ray once more: “An ordinary Black Hole can only swallow a few people at most, but this one swallowed half a Middle Team. It seems that it indeed is a Tier 2 Spatial Magic Cannon!””l see.” After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray asked again, “Is there any possibility of the magic cannon exploding due to a barrel burst?”
Hearing this, Scarlett’s voice hesitated, clearly taken aback.
She then replied, “My Lord, it is possible, but only if the magic power is overcharged, causing the magic cannon to exceed its maximum load capacity.
Only then will there be a chance of explosion.”
After a pause, Scarlett added, “However, even a Tier 1 magic apprentice can easily detect this critical point, so under normal circumstances, this situation won’t occur.”
“Understood.” Leo Ray nodded slightly, his eyes narrowed as he continued to quietly watch the battlefield not far away.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, watching more than 20 of her painstakingly nurtured Tier 2 Heavy Knights being wiped out in an instant, Cara felt her heart bleed.
But at this point, she had no choice but to go through with it.
So, she clenched her red lips and led the other shaken Saint Night soldiers towards the fortress.
“There’s actually a magic cannon too…”
On the other side, following closely behind, Baron Yeste’s forehead was beaded with sweat the size of soybeans.
With his strength, at most, he could suppress an enemy Tier 3 powerhouse on the fortress.
However, now, with the addition of a powerful magic cannon, it undoubtedly indicated that their chances of capturing this fortress had been reduced to the lowest point.
Nevertheless, military orders were absolute.
Then, the cruel siege began.
Before the fortress came fully into range, Baron Yeste couldn’t wait any longer and commanded three mage squads to launch the first wave of attack.
After tossing over a series of colorful long-range magic attacks…
What they received in return was an even more fierce counterattack from the enemies on the fortress.
So, another batch of soldiers attacking the fortress fell while screaming in pain.
In this way, after several rounds, although Baron Yeste’s fire magic was exceptional, it was still no match for all opponents.
Moreover, since the enemy launched another magic cannon attack, this mixed magic-war troupe had to retreat in disgrace after leaving behind hundreds of corpses, without even touching the wall.
“Damn it! These bastards!”
Returning with a disheveled appearance, Cara combed through her messy hair while venting her anger.
It was clear that despite her tough tone, her voice was filled with helplessness. Her previous confidence and pride had long disappeared.
“It seems we need to think of another way. Otherwise, even if our entire army is wiped out, I’m afraid we can’t do anything to them.”
Baron Yeste sighed and shook his head, looking quite miserable as his once clean and tidy noble clothes were now torn with several large holes due to the forced counterattacks.
“Report! ”
At this moment, several scouts who had been nearby to keep tabs on enemy movements quickly galloped back.
The leading scout dismounted and quickly came to Baron Yeste, saluting him, “Your Excellency, we’ve found new enemy traces two kilometers away, rushing towards us. There are approximately two Light Cavalry Middle Teams and three Infantry Middle Teams!”
Hearing this, both Baron Yeste and Cara looked at each other in shock.
With enemies in front and behind, they were caught between a rock and a hard place.
If the enemies inside the fortress took advantage of the chaos to emerge and meet the enemies behind them, they would be caught in a pincer attack.
In that case, the situation would undoubtedly be dire.
Just then, a somewhat lazy voice sounded from behind the two, “How about leaving the task of dealing with this fortress to my team, esteemed leaders?”
