Chapter 175: Entering the Frontier City of Able

Austin's team traveled only a few hours before reaching the border city of Ebole, the border city of the Baconir Empire.

In the distance, you can see the high walls of the city of Able, and on the walls there are two huge ballistae pointed diagonally towards the ground outside the city, this ballista is already the most powerful and largest ballista.

The same ballistas were also found in the border cities of the Austin Empire. The steel crossbow is fixed directly to the wall, and the fixed base has two pulleys to adjust the angle, like an enlarged version of the crossbow bolt placed on the wall.

The "string" used in the ballista is a thick rope thicker than the arm of a strong man, this rope with high toughness can maximize the power of the ballista, the tension is so great, the control of the ballista requires the cooperation of two martial artists above the fifth level at the same time to pull this "ballista special rope" stuck to the groove designed at the back, to complete the "loading".

And the crossbow arrows used by this ballista are not so much crossbow arrows, in fact, this is simply an iron pillar with a slightly pointed head.

With a two-meter-long, palm-thick crossbow arrow, coupled with a thick string with huge tension on the bracket, the power of this largest fury cannon can be imagined!

It is said that once hit by this ballista, the Holy Rank and below will definitely not be able to resist it!

Of course, there are not so many high-level warriors on the battlefield who stupidly let the ballista aim, most of the ballistas are used to destroy some siege engines and other equipment, or to kill in a large area.

Such a thick and heavy cannon, of course, smashed into the crowd, of course, there were casualties.

This kind of weapon, not only on the walls of Abel City, basically some important cities, border cities will be equipped with this kind of "war meat grinder", usually this kind of heavy warrior is enough for low-level soldiers to effectively attack some of the monsters that attack human cities.

In this kind of "peacetime", the greater role of such heavy weapons is only a deterrent, as long as you see a ballista hanging overhead with a cold light, it is estimated that everyone will weigh their own pounds.

However, in the Baconir Empire, or other countries other than the Austin Empire, it is not so troublesome to enter and exit the cities of these countries, because other countries do not have such a thing as an "ID card" at all, and entering and exiting the city gate only requires a simple registration and then checking the storage space.

As the border city of the Baconir Empire, Abel City also has a directional teleportation magic array.

This kind of directional teleportation magic array set up on the border is generally used for supply and rapid support in wartime, and is rarely developed in normal times.

However, on some important days, this teleportation magic array will still consider using it.

After a brief check-in check at the city gate, the Austin team entered the gate and was greeted by a team wearing silver armor.

The leader of the squad gave a standard military salute to the Austin team.

"All the students of Austin Demon Martial Arts Academy have worked hard, I am the captain of the 1037 Brigade of the Snow Storm Legion, and my name is Angelo." A middle-aged man in the lead smiled and reached out to shake hands with Berwen, who was standing at the front.

"I was ordered to wait here for a long time, and lead you through the teleportation magic array to the imperial capital of our Baconir Empire." The captain named Angelo said with a smile.

In the Baconir Empire, there are three major legions, and the Snow Storm Legion is mainly responsible for the garrison of some important cities such as the imperial capital, which is similar to the meaning of the elite forbidden army, with a small number but every soldier is a warrior with a high level of cultivation.

The Baconir Empire sent a Captain of the Snow Storm Army to greet their group of half-grown children, and it was already very face-saving to let one of the captains stand and wait in the heavy snowstorm.

"Then there's Captain Lauangelo." Berwen smiled skillfully.

"Please!" Captain Angelo led the way at the front.

Behind Captain Angelo was a small group of ten soldiers, after all, it was within the borders of the Baconir Empire, and no one would think of causing trouble, these ten soldiers were not for protection at all, in fact, it was just a gesture made by the Baconir Empire.

"Look! I've sent a captain to lead the army to protect you! That's enough to save face! That's kind of what it means.

And the Snowstorm Legion obviously has a high status in the Baconir Empire, and this team of the Snowstorm Legion walked on the street and provoked the residents who passed by, curiously looking at the team, what kind of half-grown children were in the Austin team who were protected by the Snowstorm Mercenary Group.

The teleportation magic array is not far from the city gate, after all, the main purpose of this teleportation magic array is to support the city defense, it is not good to set it too far, as long as the distance is about the same, so as not to be hit and destroyed by the attacks thrown by the siege outside the city.

The Austin team followed Captain Angelo for less than three minutes before they came to an area built with a high fence.

On the fence, there will be a sign hanging at intervals, and the sign will uniformly say "Military restricted area, idlers are not allowed to enter".

There was an entrance in the middle of the fence, and in that place there was a small group of ten soldiers standing in a row guarding the doorway. There is also a barbed fence at the doorway to prevent some people from rushing in.

This team in charge of vigilance saw more than a dozen people led by Captain Angelo coming from a distance, and immediately shouted.

"Stop!" The squad leader who stood at the front shouted angrily.

However, the squad leader soon saw the rank on Captain Angelo's shoulder. The rank of captain of a group consisting of three six-pointed stars.

The armies of most countries retain this military rank established by Austin I, which is calculated by the six-pointed star.

Despite the high official position of the other party, the squad leader obviously did not forget his duty, but his tone was much softer.

"Sir! Please show your ID! The squad leader said.

Captain Angelo didn't care about the other party's drinking at the beginning, after all, this was the other party's job.

Captain Angelo just smiled and took out a blank piece of paper from his arms, on which the date, reason, and number of people were written in detail for the use of the teleportation magic array.

Underneath is the magic sigil of His Majesty the Baconir Empire, Baconir V.

This innate magic imprint cannot be forged, which means that this "permit" was personally approved by Baconir V!

The squad leader returned the permit with both hands, and slapped his chest with a fist in Captain Angelo's right hand, giving a standard military salute.

Then he turned his head to the ten soldiers standing behind him and ordered.

"Release!"

Ten soldiers skillfully carried one by one, easily carrying the obstacle away......
