Chapter 586 Nature and Machinery

Crancia, Sword Pine City.

It has been more than a year since the last time the Golem Legionnaires of the Frost and Frost United came to the city. Now the mountain city has changed a lot.

The towering stone walls of varying gray and white mottled closed the entire valley, and the river below was covered with extremely thick steel fences, blocking the advance of the enemy.

One after another turrets are distributed on the fortress, and some are also built on the hilltops on both sides, overlooking the canyon below.

It is now the beginning of February, and the previously quiet mountains and valleys have long been shattered by the tumultuous war. A metal golem stomped heavily on the broken goose warm stone by the river, aimed the muzzle at the strong and towering canyon fortress, and the torrent of crimson magic poured out like no money.

As dusk approached, the highly compressed magic cannonballs rushed in the air, and the original spherical shape was also deformed into an ellipse due to the impact of compression. They fell on the city wall and exploded violently.

The blasted rocks and sound waves spread outward, raising a gray mist, and then leaving ugly craters in the fortress.

The golem that attacked Jiansong City this time is not like the old model before. This golem roaring and shooting artillery fire on the ground has at least the level of Sequence 4, and many of them are elite demons equivalent to Sequence 5. picture. In the back, there is a Sequence 7 high-level giant golem that is supervising the battle and did not take it lightly.

In Jiansong City, a hidden command point in the fortress.

The digital staff members are moving various signs on the map, quickly discussing possible situations and opportunities. At the open door, a messenger comes in from time to time to report the current battle situation and situation. After responding, he left quickly.

After the discussion was over for the time being, a general in silver-gray armor held a telescope, observed the battle situation ahead, and then issued a new order to the waiting messengers beside him.

"Let the artillery on both sides of the hill prepare, and when the turret in the middle sends a firing signal, fire together, and strive to kill a large number of enemy golems within the best range."

"Yes, General Seg!" The soldier immediately walked out of the hidden observation point and sent orders to the hills on both sides.

At this time, the sturdy-looking general put down the telescope in his hand, and he looked at another young man in a different dress in the room.

"What does Mr. Tugg think the outcome of this battle will be? Repel the enemy as before, or will we have to abandon the fortress."

The young mage leaning against the wall is closing his eyes and resting. He is wearing a dark blue and white mage robe with a badge and gold chain on his chest.

After hearing the general's question, Tug opened his eyes, looked at the huge moving golems in the distance, and sighed.

"This time is different. It seems that Frost Rose is determined to open the war."

"Look." He raised his hand and pointed at the tall golem in the valley that was constantly roaring and spraying the torrent of magic power.

"That's the 'Rage-3r' type golem. This high-level golem has abandoned the strength cannonballs and used the shock torrent processed by magic infusion to shoot, making it less logistically demanding. Constantly rotate Sequence 5 or more The magician can be used to attack continuously. Only one golem can have nearly 10 artillery pieces, and its defense is also very strong."

"Even the former Ruerna, there are not many such elite and expensive golems. They used to be stationed on the border to defend against the green invasion. I didn't expect them to dare to take such a risk this time. dispatched."

"If we continue to resist, I am afraid that the soldiers in the entire fortress will die under the fiery torrent of its bombardment."

Hearing that Sage's expression gradually became solemn, he asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Tug tapped his fingers, and paused for a few seconds before continuing to answer.

"If the southern route is not banned now, we can still ask the group of fierce armored dragons to help and destroy these golems, but now... we don't have a good way, and the power we can use is too much. Weak enough to take down these sturdy golems under heavy artillery fire."

"So, I still recommend that you be prepared to retreat in advance and try to transfer the soldiers in the fortress to avoid unnecessary casualties."

"Retreat, retreat again." Seg angrily smashed his fist on the wall beside him and said through gritted teeth.

The last time he retreated, many people he knew and knew died in the battle. He didn't expect that two years later, this is still the result. What are the fortresses and defenses that you have worked hard to build in the past two years? The familiar faces of the past appeared in his mind, causing waves of sadness in his heart.

Is everything in vain, he has a hard time accepting such a result. He slammed his fist on the stone wall, loudly.

Several staff officers on the side were also shocked by its momentum, stopped the previous discussion, and looked at the general who was out of control.

Time passed slowly, and the sound of artillery fire from the outside continued. After a long time, the general took a deep breath and turned around.

"I'm sorry, I made you laugh, because I didn't control my emotions well." His eyes were red and his voice was a little hoarse.

"It's nothing." Tug shook his head slightly, expressing that he didn't mind. He understood the general's feelings.

More than once since coming to New Verga and Crancia, he has seen those brave and honorable warriors die in battle. These people may have never left their hometowns before, and they do not know those unfamiliar compatriots, but they are willing to give their lives and fight for their homes and dignity for the sake of today's country.

In the army, these comrades who have experienced life and death together have a particularly deep feeling between them.

Thick, not comparable to the temporarily recruited soldiers of other countries.

"If we still have to retreat in the end, what do you think we should do so that we can do the most damage to the opponent and block them for a longer time." He asked again.

"About this..." Tuger pushed the glasses on his nose, opened the thick book with the blue and white shell in his hand, picked up the pen and began to sketch and calculate the drafts one by one.

After that, the two continued to discuss with the several staff members in the room, and finally made a detailed plan one by one.

————

Unlike the well-ordered Crancia defenders, the Frost Rose's attack was much more rapid.

One after another, fiery torrents cut through the sky and flooded the firing ports on the fortress. Then, under the cover of some cheap earth and rock golems, the soldiers of the Frost United began to approach the bottom of the fortress. They used the ropes shot by the golems. , climbed up the stone walls of the fortress, wearing special shoes on his feet to prevent slipping.

These elite soldiers, carrying mechanical guns and swords, turned into the collapsed shooting holes, and took this opportunity to enter the inner lanes of the fortress, preparing to directly attack the stationed artillery and kill the vulnerable enemies inside.

"It's finally a success this time." Behind the Frost and Frost United, a woman in her 20s put down the telescope in her hand and said happily and proudly.

The woman's name is Hedley, who is the commander of this group of golems, and the leader of the younger generation of the alchemy faction "Black and Red Flame". Although he is only 28 years old, he has already reached the level of magic Sequence 7, and is optimistic about it by all parties, thinking that it may be possible to reach the extreme of Sequence 9.

This time on the battlefield was her first time commanding a battle. Even though she was born into a famous family and had extraordinary strength, she couldn't be attacked for a long time, which still made her feel upset.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, this is already a rare genius, not only graduated from Emenas, but also the direct daughter of the leader of the Ruerna faction, with a promising future. But she also has to face competition from many better peers.

For some unknown reason, from a few years ago, every country and country began to emerge one by one rare geniuses in the past. At the same age group, they were more dazzling and stronger than previous generations.

"After I go back this time, I will definitely slap that slut Tireira in the face, and dare to steal a man from me."

She watched as sparks erupted from the firing ports in the distant fortress, and then fell silent, with a slanted smile on her face. Recalling the genius of the same age with a body that seduces others, she began to imagine how to become the opponent's boss by virtue of her military achievements after returning home, and then wantonly suppress the scene of the opponent.

"Hahaha, Tireira, I want to see, apart from your seductive appearance, what else is worth commending, isn't it that you advanced to Magic Sequence 7 a year earlier than me, I'll tear you apart in the future. A mask of hypocrisy to reveal your true self."

As a genius who graduated from the same academy as Tireira in the same year, the relationship between the two can be described as bad, and although Hedley has a lot of power in her family, more people around her prefer the gentle and considerate Tireira. And every time the people around him defended Tireira, Hedley resented her even more, believing that she was blocking her own brilliance.

But just as the genius alchemist imagined the future, the battlefield ahead suddenly changed.

On the hilltops on both sides, the soil slopes where trees grew everywhere suddenly collapsed, revealing the dark shooting forts inside. As an order came from it, the fierce fire suddenly lit up, and the heavy shells smashed directly from the side to the golem army below.

The gravel splashed, some of the golems were directly blown up by the artillery fire from the rear side, black smoke and broken metal scattered everywhere, and the smell of gunpowder smoke filled the river valley.

The inferior soil and rock golems that had previously covered the troop climbing and attacking were also shattered by the artillery fire. Blocking the way for the Frost Alliance soldiers to continue to attack the interior.

Inside the fortress, Seg took the elite guards around him and began to sweep away the enemy troops who came in to destroy them.

Several Frost and Frost Union soldiers with mechanical gun swords galloped down the alley. They kicked open the closed doors one by one, and then pressed the button on the hilt of the sword. The magic spar was connected to the engraved magic circle, and a The dark red light covered the sword body, making it more effective in breaking armor, and then slashed and slashed at the enemies in the room, trying to be caught off guard, and then greatly destroyed the artillery and other materials in the fortress.

Ping ping pong pong, the sound of metal symphony sounded everywhere, and bursts of explosions came from the room, and then they walked out of it and rushed to the shooting port in the next fortress.

"Just stop here!" Seg pulled out the dark golden dagger from his waist and looked at the small but elite enemy army in front of him.

"Kill!" With a loud shout, the red light mark and the golden sword light collided with each other, and the two sides started a fierce battle in the alley.

chap——

A brilliant sword light flashed, and several soldiers of the Frost and Frost United were shot directly to the wall behind them, and then slowly slid down, with bright red blood flowing out, and there was no sound.

Although the equipment of this group of people is very good, as the general of Crancia and the outstanding meritorious person, Seg is not only stronger, but also received the gift from the sage, and now he has reached the level of Sequence 7 , to deal with such an enemy is naturally at hand.

————

Outside the fortress, under the intersection of the artillery on both sides of the mountain, the Golem Legion had to suspend the attack on the fortress, and turned to deal with the dark fort in the mountains.

As it stabilized its position and blew up the muzzles on the mountains, the situation slowly turned to the Frost and Frost United side. What's more deadly is that on the other side of the sky, there began to be a roaring sound of breaking the air.

one by one

The boat slowly approached in the purple sunset, and then dropped heavy bombs one by one, directly blasting a huge gap in the center of the fortress.

Seeing this scene, the defenders in the fortress finally began to retreat, and the firing ports slowly stopped.

A group of cheap earth and rock golems stepped forward again to clear the road, and then the soldiers of the Frost and Frost Union and the follow-up elite golems kept entering the fortress.

"Need a chase, Lord Hedley?" A mage flew from the side and landed next to the commander of the Golem Legion.

"Of course, these people must be slaughtered." A cruel smile appeared on Hedley's face.

"Yes." The mage returned to his golem, and then a rush of pursuit orders were sent around.

Beneath the towering fortress was a dark and dense valley and jungle. Crancia soldiers hid in it and retreated to the north. They gradually spread out to avoid enemy bombardment.

But Frost & Frost United obviously didn't want to let these opponents go so easily. Their airship swept across the sky like a god of death in the night, and then huge flaming meteors fell from the sky and smashed into the pitch-black earth, setting off countless orange-red rays of light and air currents. .

The flames licked the air, crackling and burning, and the suffocating heat wave began to spread, reflecting the earth like day, and many soldiers wailed and ran in it. survived.

In the face of this wanton destruction and burning, there was a whizzing sound of cold air breaking in the distant sky.

When Hedley and other high-level mages noticed, there was a group of rapidly flying figures in the sky. These birds, which were only half a meter wide, had dark blue and sharp wings, like flying sharp sickles, splitting the atmosphere and air. everything.

"That's..." They guessed in amazement, and in the dark jungle, a mage from the Southern Islands gave the answer.

"They are beheading finches from the Tislan Mountains."

With the help of the cover of night, these beheading sparrows flashed the magic shots that were released indiscriminately, and easily split the metal shell of the airship. The tearing and sharp sound sounded in the night sky, and then the fragile mechanical structure inside the airship was exposed. continue to be damaged.

More than 30 airships swayed in the sky as if they were drunk. Finally, they couldn't hold it anymore. They fell into the sea of ​​fire below, smashed to pieces, and various structures were lifted up in the flames, and then scattered again. As the flames spread, Many of the ordinary people who had no time to escape let out a series of painful wailing.

"Fuck!" Hedley couldn't help but exclaimed.

She drilled into the huge golem under her body, and then an incomparably magnificent golem slowly rose on the ground. Looking at the night sky.

This golem has a razor-sharp outer armor. With the brilliance on the surface, steam spews out, the hatches are opened one by one, and the silver-blue swords flying fast fly out from behind, straight into the night sky.

These silver-blue swords flickered with electric light, and their blades were extremely sharp. After sweeping across the night sky, they directly strangled the beheading sparrows in that sky one by one, and their feathers and blood fell like rain.

"It can't continue like this." A sighing voice sounded in the dark mountains and jungles, and he opened the fluorescent book in front of him. This ordinary book on weekdays burst into a bright blue light like a transparent, the pages turned, and spells emerged from the air, like hundreds of voices chanting together.

But if you listen carefully, you will find that these voices are the same person.

Tug opened his hands, letting the book in front of him slowly float, surrounded by green and cold whirlwinds, a striking beam of light rose from the ground, penetrated into the sky, and continued to spread outward.

And this kind of momentum naturally attracted Hedley to drive the giant golem. She waved her hand, and hundreds of silver-blue sharp swords came out of the air, straight into the mage who was singing at a high speed.

But the 'Book of Iris' Tuge also finished casting the spell at this moment, and a light green transparent butterfly wing rose from the page.

"The Secret Art of the Fairy Township: Natural Awakening." Following this call, the beam of light suddenly spread out, spreading out like ripples all around.

Then, the earth and forest in the sea of ​​fire seemed to come alive.

The ground seemed to be swimming with living creatures, constantly surging, and many golems fell in the swaying and undulating ground, and then struggled to stand up again.

"This, what is this!?" There was panic in the voice.

A branch of tree roots pierced the earth and brought a damp breath. They spread like snakes, extinguished the flames, dragged the golems one by one into the depths of the soil, buried them under the soil, and then closed and suffocated them to death.

The giant golem let out a silent roar, and a fiery beam of light spewed out from its chest, sweeping across the ground, cutting off hundreds of raging tree roots, and then gathering raging flame magic power, with its fist hitting hard, A crimson shock wave erupted on the ground, shattering the roots of the trees that were about to emerge.

Seeing this scene, the tree roots in the earth and soil also changed the direction of their scattered attacks. They continued to gather towards the giant golem, winding up and climbing, strangling and locking its movements, and dragging it into the depression step by step. and muddy soil.

The roaring war machinery roared violently, and the vibrations and saw teeth cut the roots of the evil and strange trees, vowing to burn and destroy this place.

The ever-growing plants are like undead ghosts, tightly entwined, even if they are cut off, they will grow again, which is bound to bury the ruthless machinery that destroys nature.

In the mud and flames, the icy living and the scorching dead strangle each other.

——And now, nature and machinery are at odds.
