When the first rays of sunlight set, Zedi had already awakened from the long night, the stars had faded, the silver moon had already sunk into the mountains, and the sparkling surface of the lake reflected the light of the hazy morning sun in winter, showing a quiet and deep atmosphere.

However, this silence did not last long, as it was disturbed by a low roar, and the sound of artillery fire startled a shoal of gulls and herons, and Zedi was instantly enveloped in nervousness.

Bang -

A cone-shaped cannonball traveled at high speed, drawing a parabola, towards the ancient castle in the distance, but was blocked by an invisible wall halfway through, causing ripples in the air, and then exploding, bursting into brilliant fireworks in the morning light.

Despite this, anyone with even the slightest experience can see that this magical barrier is crumbling after a night of artillery fire, and it may be destroyed by the next shell at any moment.

The Magical Barrier has taken on a distinct outline, the world strings that form its foundation have long been tangled together, and the barrier driven by the Magic Guiding Device has come to the end of its life, like an old man whose life is dying, barely surviving on the last of his strength.

Bang -

Another cannonball, but unlike the previous one, the tip of this cannonball passed through the invisible barrier, and just when Wendland's artillerymen thought it would be the first shot to penetrate the barrier, it exploded, and only a few fragments passed through the magic barrier and entered the castle's garrison.

Wendland's infantry was not idle, they slowly moved forward from the trenches, and Aster's artillery had stopped an hour before, presumably running out of ammunition and food, and could no longer fire at Wendland, which quickened the pace of the attack.

So, even though the arrows of the Bow Emissary were still shooting towards the position, Wendran still pushed the battle line to a place where he had not reached last night.

As Wendland's infantry looked nervous, dodging arrows from the walls, the roar of a salvo of ten magical cannons from the slope drowned out all the sounds in the world.

I saw that the ten cannonballs roared and crashed into the magic barrier of Cainzburg, and then exploded at the same time, even at high altitude, the exploding wind could still overturn the people on the ground, this is the largest cannonball in Wendland's specifications, it only takes one shot, it can penetrate the heavy armor of the floating battleship, at this time, the huge energy of this cannonball poured into the magic power barrier, and finally made the overwhelmed barrier change.

Everyone present could hear a loud sound like glass breaking, and they looked up at the sky, only to find that a crack appeared in the sky covered by clouds.

The crack was hundreds of meters long, and as everyone gazed, it rapidly expanded, eventually reaching the entire sky.

The mages saw that the world strings that formed the magic barrier were scattered as if they had been cut off by a long sword, bursting with light and turning into the most basic magic particles, and with the disintegration of the magic circle, the magic barrier also began to appear a pale yellow light.

In the blink of an eye, the entire sky above Keynzburg was occupied by dense cracks, and the magic barrier seemed to shatter at the touch of a button.

It didn't take long for the second salvo to arrive.

Like striking a cup that was about to shatter with a hammer, this time, Wendland's bombardment pierced the defenses of the Barrier of Mana, which shattered into countless tiny pieces, scattered to the earth and turned into dust due to the loss of its magical power, and the fragments of the Barrier of Mana reflected the sunlight, forming a faint rainbow.

The spectacle didn't last long, as the cannonballs that pierced through the magical barrier came into contact with the walls of Keynzburg for the first time.

Wendland's soldiers seemed to be watching a slow-motion movie, the cone-shaped cannonballs accompanied by scattered fragments of the magic barrier, crashed into the ancient mottled city walls of Kainzburg, the seal was triggered, and the whole cannonball exploded like a bursting balloon, the masonry city wall could not withstand such a surging force, and wherever the shock wave went, the gray city wall mixed with snow and moss immediately shattered and collapsed, and the originally solid city wall was like a rippling water surface at this moment, disturbed by the arrival of cannonballs, and almost collapsed.

The voice came later.

It was only then that the infantry of Wendran finally heard the familiar sound of the explosion, in which Aster's army would be engulfed in flames and torn to pieces by the immense force of destruction, as if they had forgotten the battle of their lives last night, they seemed to be back on the plains of Trastan, and they faced the days of victory for Aster's army.

Another volley of artillery fire smashed several gaps in the impregnable walls of Keynzburg, which were widened by a second salvo, but more importantly, the defenses on the walls of Astre could be dismantled, much to the excitement of the Vindland's infantry.

There was no respite, and the third salvo came as scheduled.

"For the sake of Wendland, rush!"

According to the agreement, after three rounds of artillery bombardment, it was time for the infantry to go into battle, and the commanders raised their swords and shouted, and Wendland's soldiers were full of ambition and charged towards the already crumbling walls.

"Hurry up the ladder, follow the battering ram!"

Knowing that the ammunition for the Astor artillery had long been exhausted, and that there was the cover of these three rounds of shelling, Wendland's soldiers were relieved to boldly launch an offensive.

In fact, at this moment, the walls of Keynzburg have already been opened several gaps, even without ladders can be climbed through the gaps in the city wall to enter the castle, but who can guarantee that the soldiers defending on the city wall have been killed by shelling, in order to be safe, the commanders of Wendland decided to let the soldiers attack the city from two directions.

The faces of the Wendran soldiers were full of fanatical expressions, after a night of torture, what they wanted to do most at this moment was to drag out the miscellaneous men of Astel and torture them to death by the most cruel means, the commander had already given an order to kill all the nobles except for Aster's nobles, and not to take prisoners, but in this melee, who would notice whether the enemy in front of them was nobles or not, so this order was actually no different from the slaughter of the city.

However, just as Wendland's vanguard arrived at the foot of the city wall and prepared to set up a ladder to attack the city, several scorching arrows burst through the air from the gap in the wall, flew towards the vanguard, and then exploded in the crowd when Wendland was completely unprepared.

The heat and flames immediately engulfed Wendland's vanguard, and before the others could come to their senses, a second volley of scorching arrows landed on the heads of Wendland's soldiers again! (To be continued.) )
