Chapter 920 [Little Duke Cannon]

To be honest, Archimonde looked down upon the Scourge Legion's combat prowess.

In the eyes of the commander of the Burning Legion, zombies, ghouls, etc. are just crap that is worse than a doll.

Reggie Donghan persuaded Archimonde with a reason: "Dear sir, the humans and orcs defending Mount Hyjal are as weak as these zombies. If you go to the end in person, sir, it is very likely that You won’t enjoy fighting.”

Archimonde has never been afraid of his godlike enemies.

When Sargeras recruited him and Kil'jaeden to join him, it was the Creation Titans of the Pantheon who stood firm.

So when he heard that his opponent was weak, Archimonde hesitated. Because many demon legions were pulled by Kil'jaeden to the outer defense line of Azeroth to attract the Aspect Dragon. He doesn't have many direct demons on hand.

Considering this, he agreed.

"Lei Ji, I leave the task of cleaning up the garbage to you. Don't call me until the strong man on the other side comes out."

But now, Lei Ji Donghan felt that he might have failed his trust.

Because what he and his men have to face is the most insane cannon of this era.

Before Duke was knocked into the void, Duke once proposed the theory of rifling to the dwarves and gnomes. Only by adding rifling to the cannon barrel can the cannonball have a stable trajectory and the fired cannonball be controllable.

Otherwise, in this era of rampant muzzleloader cannons, even the best gunners will not be able to predict where the impact point will be after the shell flies two kilometers. If the error is within a hundred meters, he is already a master gunner.

In Duke's opinion, without a sufficient industrial base, it would be impossible to build a huge cannon that could propel the shells five kilometers. After all, this involves a lot of things such as steel quality, lathe precision, and a series of other things that are black technologies for this era of the world.

The funny thing is, Duke once again underestimated the abilities of dwarves and gnomes.

Dwarfs never lack ideas, they only lack reliable ideas.

Duke's successful experience has been verified and practiced countless times on the earth. In the eyes of the dwarf, this is simply God's will. Because in the eyes of great craftsmen such as Gelbin, Duke can directly find the road to success without failure. Duke is the true god of craftsmen.

Since it was God's instruction and work, how could the dwarf not risk his life to complete it.

Maybe one day Duke will be in a good mood and suddenly think of how to clean up the radiation in Gnomeregan, the dwarf's hometown, and the dwarf will really be saved.

So if the quality of the steel is not good enough, the chamber will explode?

Then I should make the barrel thicker and more powerful, right?

How many shots will it take to explode?

My worst-case scenario is that the barrel is only used once, right?

Do you want high-precision rifling?

Look at my dwarf's magical skill - directly tie a rope into the barrel of the cannon, and carve out a perfect rifling with a hammer and chisel in hand.

The result was the 36 [Little Duke Cannons] placed on the beach of Azshara.

Its barrel has a caliber of 800 mm and is 10 meters long. When the artillery is deployed and fixed in the combat state, the total length is 28 meters, the height is 5 meters, and the total weight is 288 tons.

It sounds like the caliber is much smaller than the 'little steel cannon' that sent countless orcs to the west in the Battle of Blackstone Thirteen years ago.

But if you consider that the range of this [Little Duke Cannon] is more than four times farther than the 'Small Steel Cannon', with the longest range exceeding 10 kilometers, any commander with a brain will know that [Little Duke Cannon] ]'s military value is completely an epoch-making product.

If the equally unscrupulous Dalaran mage had not developed an upgraded version of the military magic [Protective Shells] specifically for the mage tower in the past ten years, based on the [Protective Arrows] magic, maybe the dwarfs would have already That strength goes to conquer the world.

That's too far.

Such a behemoth initially encountered great difficulties in assembly, transportation and firing tests. But in order to save the world, the dwarf craftsmen assembled 36 [Little Duke Cannons] in three days.

When one cannonball exceeds three tons, and the dwarf secret room guard needs to use [God Descends to Earth] to transform into a small giant to load the cannonball, it is conceivable that the power of the explosion cannot be small at all!

The huge floating island that had been leaning against the edge of the beach produced a continuous and terrible storm.

First, there was a powerful explosion that shook the earth and the mountains. At the front edge of the floating island, not to mention the zombies at the impact point of the shell, even the thin edge of the island was directly blown down, causing the terrifying effect of the land sinking.

Things within the direct range of the cannonball will disintegrate directly. No matter whether you are an elite ghoul that has been strengthened and become as strong as steel, a gargoyle made of hard obsidian, or a bone dragon with extremely thick bones, they will all be reduced to countless fragments like in a storm. flying away like butterflies.

The shell exploded and spattered metal shrapnel, easily tearing into pieces all those standing nearby.

Even the zombies three hundred meters away were blown around. Even the undead monster [Abomination], which weighed more than five tons and was stitched together from a large number of corpses, was like grass blown away by the strong wind in the explosion. The group, I don’t know where to go.

"What's going on!? Who can tell me, what's going on?" Reggie Donghan was furious in the soul connection network.

"It seems to be human artillery." A low-level lich replied.

"Fart! Of course I know about artillery. How can it shoot so far!"

Under such a terrifying blow, even the Scourge Legion, which claimed to have absolutely no morale problems, fell into chaos uncontrollably.

Five minutes passed quickly.

That terrifying whistling sound sounded in the sky again.

This time, Reki Donghan chose to let the lichs cast spells and set up a huge magic barrier.

The next moment, the power of science and industry and the mysterious magical power that had nothing to do with wind, horse or cow collided in mid-air. At that moment, the entire eastern sky flashed with the glow of magic——

The frost elements and dark power formed densely packed runes in the sky, exuding evil auras. These runes formed a huge shield, resisting the kinetic energy brought by the huge cannonballs.

Originally, this overlapping gray-black shield seemed to be able to resist these shells. However, when the first shell was detonated by magic in mid-air, clear cracks suddenly appeared on the entire magic shield. Countless magic runes exploded in mid-air, and the destruction immediately spread in all directions.

The protective shield constructed with all the magic power of Regi*Donghan and other lichs could not withstand only 12 super artillery shells.

The result was that 24 shells landed closer to the center of the island. It seemed that there was a delay before the shock wave of destruction swept across the entire front of the island.

I'm in normal condition today...
