Chapter 218: Backfired

...... Is this thing reliable?

After the cannon sounded, Add looked in the direction of the cliff face with a complicated expression;

To say that this thing is not powerful enough, it is really biased: on the opposite cliff, one pit after another has been punched out at this moment, and it looks quite mad;

But...... That's just too off.

Add roughly estimated that even the closest one was more than thirty meters away from the target;

The situation on the barrel side of the cannon is also quite helpless: the shelf is not reliable at all, and at this moment it is crooked under the impact, and even falls directly to the ground;

It's no wonder that the adventurers aimed poorly, and there was not even a thing to aim on the "barrel......

"Refill after cooling. Boulder waved his hand and told the men to move forward;

At this time, the temperature of the metal cylinder is not low, and it is possible to explode directly if you put the magic ball directly......

Add looked at the simple and crude cooling method, and suddenly felt a little panicked in his heart: the person who knew magic directly poured cold water on the cannon barrel, and then used wind magic to further cool down;

Look at them like that, not using ice cubes directly is enough to save face.

"Let's move a little farther away. Eddie motioned to the five men around him to go further into the forest;

"Add, your caution borders on cowardice. The stubborn stone shook his head, "This special weapon has been tested many times, and it won't go wrong at all......

Judging by the confident look on your face, there weren't enough trials, Eddie thought.

The cyan ancient wood also chose to trust Eddie's judgment - after all, safety is the most important thing;

The members of the Greataxe Guild were a little flustered when they saw Add's actions, but due to the power of the guild, none of them dared to retreat away after re-aiming the cannon barrel and reloading it.

The second bombardment was fired quickly - but this time it was clearly not as neat as the last;

The muffled sound of fire magic exploding was mixed with the sound of metal disintegrating due to overwhelming force;

When everyone explored the situation on the edge of the cliff again, they couldn't help but gasp:

Just as Eddie feared, one of the iron cylinders exploded directly, and cracked pieces of metal were everywhere;

Some of them flew to the other side of the woods and dug deep into the trunks......

What would happen if it hit him directly? Even the stubborn stone looked a little uneasy.

“...... No need to worry, continue to prepare for shooting. "Stubborn glanced at the other side of the rock wall: this time it was better than the last time;

At least a piece of metal could hit within ten meters of the pillar of light.

"Think about it, what a feat this is!" Stubborn Stone cheered up the adventurers under his command who were somewhat weak because of what had just happened, "Saved the entire Cangliu City...... What a glory is this?"

The benefits that follow are also incalculable. This is what the stubborn stone implies.

Obviously, this statement is useful - those adventurers move a lot faster;

Third round of launches.

This time Eddie felt pretty much the same.

Behind the tree, he turned on the optical analysis module and looked at the situation on the edge of the cliff;

One of the shells hit the rocks that were stuck in the wreckage of the two destroyers!

The rocks were not as strong as the slayer, and when they were hit, they burst like the rest of the cliffs;

Looking at the pillar of light that was gradually swaying in the rockfall, Add felt that this operation should end smoothly......

The adventurers came out from behind the trees, saw the crumbling rocks, and the falling pillars of light, and shouted excitedly—

"Okay——! it's no problem now!"

"This will soon return to normal radiation!"

"We saved the city—"

However, reality poured cold water on their heads – just as they did when they cooled the barrels;

Eddie, who used the optical analysis module, was the first to find the problem:

Those two cores weren't actually blown up.

Since the extinguishing machine has been close to falling apart due to long-term wind erosion, exposure to the sun, and rain, at this distance, it takes a little more causal points to see the core that has leaked out;

It was two darker metal balls—most importantly, they were still glued together like two magnet balls, and there was no sign of separating even when they fell and collided with the cliff face;

Eventually, the two of them fell into the forest beneath the cliff, along with the remnants of the extinguishing weapon and the cracked rock.

...... That's a bit of a hassle.

"Pillar of Light...... Why hasn't it disappeared?"

The adventurers began to panic.

If you don't separate them, they won't disappear...... Add thought;

Speaking of which, those shells didn't hit directly at all;

The two cores only collided with the cliff in the whole process;

If it could be separated so easily, the degree of bonding of the cores would be a bit outrageous......

"What should we do, President Stone?"

"Well, it fell into the woods!"

"Do you want to bombard the woods again?"

Come on, with your hit rate, it is estimated that all the barrels will be blown up, and the core will not be hit;

“...... Probably, we will have to go down into the valley and separate it in some other way. Shanshan said, looking around: "There is a cliff over there that is relatively gentle, so let's go down from there." ”

"Wait. Stubborn Stone's tone trembled a little, "You guys...... Look over there first. ”

...... I was worried that it would be difficult to find the core in the jungle of the valley;

Now it seems that it is too much to worry about.

At the point where the core fell, the radiation was changing the landscape of the woods at a speed visible to the naked eye;

The original lush green leaves quickly turned yellow, and then fell to the ground;

The branches also became shriveled and weak, as if they would break when the wind blew;

In just a few tens of seconds, the part of the forest where the pillar of light was located had turned into a dead place—more solemn than the dead branches in winter, and even more eerie compared to the relatively normal jungle around it;

Then, the monsters in the forest were also affected, and the sudden increase in radiation intensity made them frenzied, and the nearby monsters scrambled to flee into the distance - this should have added some convenience to the future exploration, right?

But not all monsters have fled.

With the help of the optical analysis module, Add was able to see that there were some monsters wandering in the forest near the pillar of light - preliminarily, it should be some abnormal insects;

At first glance, I just felt a little familiar;

But the more he looked, the more Eddie felt goosebumps all over his body.

The disgusting brown flat body, the tentacles that make people's hearts hairy, the dense number......

Why are there so many cockroaches in this forest......!?

Forget about cockroaches, why are they bigger than wolf dogs?

This is also outrageous...... Add kept tapping his fingers on his forehead;

Is this the thing you're up against......
