Chapter 302: The "Porcupine" Falls
"Hurry up, don't be sluggish, open the artifact given by the Protoss!" The commander of the Holy Empire coalition personally came to the place where the artifact was placed, and under the guidance of the priest of the Temple of Light, he shouted to the soldiers in charge of the operation, "What about the magician? Don't instill magic yet! ”
Under the manipulation of these soldiers and magicians, the magic circle that had been folded together was slowly unfolded, and the metal ring on the strange machine was also erected, aiming at the huge magic ship that was firing a barrage of bullets above.
"Start!"
After watching all the magic crystals on the screen below light up and confirming with the priest beside him, the commander of the Holy Empire coalition roared.
With the order of the commander of the Holy Empire's coalition forces, the machine made a slight vibration sound, and an invisible wave flew towards the magic ship in front of it.
"Well, then we'll lure these intruders into the magic circle right away." Liara said, putting the magic crystal to her mouth. "Qin Xin, do you pay attention to replacing Qin Xin?"
"Is it broken?" The magic crystal didn't react, and Liara put the magic crystal in her hand in front of her eyes in confusion and observed. "But the structure has not been destroyed, and the magic array inside is also intact, why is there no trace of magic flow in it?"
"Report! Unknown failure, the energy inside the electromagnetic cannon is decreasing! ”
"Warning! The defensive magic array is gradually becoming ineffective, for unknown reasons! ”
"Report! The magic ship mana core has stopped functioning and we are descending! ”
Standing atop the porcupine-class gunship, Liara heard the bad news from the captain beside her who had used primitive manpower to send orders. I couldn't help but stretch out my fingers and began to condense the magic.
The surrounding mana activity is declining rapidly, the forbidden magic space?!
Looking at the four porcupine-class gunboats around them that were also malfunctioning and began to fall rapidly, Riarra's two pairs of transparent wings slowly spread out and floated, using the magic strengthened by her godhead, steadily dragging the five porcupine-class gunboats and slowly falling to the ground.
Boom Boom!
Dozens of huge fireballs flying from the direction of the Holy Empire's coalition forces exploded violently near the gunboat that landed on the ground.
Rumble!
A gunboat was hit directly into the bow by a huge fireball. The huge explosion sent the entire magic ship flipping over. The bow of the ship was also engulfed directly by the fireball.
"Rescue the wounded and build defenses on the spot!"
Riala, who was shocked that the enemy could still use magic, did not react until the gunboat behind her was hit, and used the magic power strengthened by her godhead to forcibly activate the suppressed magic power next to her. Unfold a magical barrier to protect your crew from enemy magical attacks.
But the other party's magic continued to attack here. The little power left in the Godhead of Liara simply couldn't sustain this massive magical barrier for a long time.
"Your Highness the Princess. All the machines that use magic are out of work, so you can lead the elves to retreat. A dwarven captain who jumped from the gunboat said to Liala: "We must destroy the gunboat completely, and we must not let it fall into the hands of the enemy!" ”
"Mana doesn't work. What are you going to destroy?! ”
"Thermobaric bomb!"
"Space magic can't be opened, there's no thermobaric bomb!"
"We have it on our gunboats!"
Woooooo
At this moment, without the barrage of gunboats, the army of the Holy Empire finally began to attack. With the sound of the horn constantly sounding, countless figures were surging in the deep forest ahead.
"The remote detonator is not working now, how do you want to detonate it?" Liara instructed the elves beside her to swap out the Demon Breaker bullets and snipe the approaching enemy in front of her with her rifle, and took the time to ask the dwarven captain.
"You guys go first, just leave the detonation to me!" The dwarven captain said firmly.
"You're crazy, you can't escape the explosion range of the thermobaric bomb!" Liara glared fiercely at the dwarven captain and pointed to the gunboat on the ground and shouted, "Get the thermobaric bombs out of there, remove the safety devices from them, and our sisters will use their rifles to detonate them remotely!" Go ahead, we'll only give you three minutes at most! ”
"Yes, Your Highness Princess!" The dwarven captain turned and led his crew back to the gunboat, removing a large number of thermobaric bombs from the cabin and proceeding to unlock the safety devices above.
The thermobaric bomb is extremely powerful, and if there is only a trace of leakage of high-energy fuel in it and then encounters Mars, it will cause irreparable disaster.
At the beginning, the dwarves had paid a lot of money for imitating thermobaric bombs from Qin Xin, and finally found a relatively safe way to preserve them. It wasn't until Qin Xin came to the dwarf clan again that the preservation of the thermobaric bomb was completely safe.
Compared with the original bloated and huge bullet body, the new thermobaric bomb can be described as pocket-sized, although the weight has not been reduced.
The entire interior of the thermobaric bomb is a small dimensional space made of space magic, where all the high-energy fuel is stored in the dimensional space inside, and then there is a set of compressed space magic and physical shell protection outside, completely isolating the possibility of the thermobaric bomb detonating.
Even if the fuel in the dimensional space is ignited, at most, the dimensional space inside will be completely destroyed, and all the energy generated by the explosion will be poured into the dimensional space, causing the thermobaric bomb to be unusable, and the appearance of the bomb will not even be damaged in the slightest.
But with so many security measures added, the activation of thermobaric bombs has also become extremely complicated.
Ten minutes had passed since the dwarven captain had taken out all the thermobaric bombs and distributed them to the various porcupine-class gunboats, opened the safety with the code, and set the warhead's detonation mode to detonate with vibration.
"Aren't you alright?!" Anxious, Liara came straight to the dwarven captain.
"I have to wait another ten minutes, if you don't turn on all the safety devices and adjust the detonation mode, these thermobaric bombs won't explode at all!" The dwarven captain was sweating profusely, and his mouth quickly replied as he set the thermobaric bomb in front of him.
Because of the huge power of the thermobaric bomb, for the sake of safety, only specific personnel can use the codebook and calculation method in their hands to open the combination lock on the thermobaric bomb. Even the noble Liara has no way to calculate, so she can only watch the thermobaric bomb in a hurry.
"The enemy won't give us ten minutes, why would it be so slow?!" Riara turned, pointing her finger ahead and using magic to support the stressful front ahead.
However, the magic element was suppressed, and Liala, who did not have much inner power in the godhead, could not use large-scale magic at all, and the role that one person could play was quite limited.
Although under the cover of the woods, the elves with the help of the complex terrain are using their rifles to shoot rapidly. But the crowd in front of him was getting bigger and bigger, and the elves, who were less than sixty people, were almost unstoppable.
"Because the magic structure is all invalid, it can only be set manually!" The dwarven captain snarled with blood-red eyes.
"Wait, if the magic structure inside fails, will the space magic device inside the thermobaric bomb continue to function?" Lyara suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The dwarven captain, who was in the process of being quickly set, froze.
"Leave these gunboats alone, all evacuate!" Liara ducked in exasperation and cried out. "The dwarves go first, and the sisters stay and break off!"
Hundreds of dwarves, led by their respective captains, quickly retreated to the rear, while the elves had to stay behind to buy time for the short-legged dwarves to evacuate.
However, there was a huge disadvantage in numbers, although the elves who kept shooting shot the enemies that appeared in front of them, blocking the advance of the enemies in front of them. But the endless enemies directly told Liara what it means to be outnumbered. The nearby forest was being rapidly bulldozed, and it seemed that the elves led by Liara, who relied on the huge body of the gunboat to defend themselves, were about to be surrounded.
"Let's get out too, follow me!" Seeing that the elves had bought enough time, Liara led the sisters beside her to prepare to evacuate.
However, when she retreated, Liara was disappointed to find that the sisters, who could not use their magical powers, had lost their former posture of coming and going through the woods like the wind, and could not shake off the people behind them, but were about to be surrounded by the enemy who caught up.
"Damn!"
Although Liara continued to use magic to eliminate nearby enemies, more and more enemies appeared around her, as if endless, blocking the back road in the blink of an eye.
Boom Boom Boom !!
Just as Liara decided to squeeze the last bit of strength out of the godhead and lead her sisters away, a series of rising fireballs directly engulfed the enemies blocking the back road.
"Liala, hurry up!"
In Liara's eyes, floating not far ahead, Qin Xin's posture carrying a bazooka was so reliable and reassuring. (To be continued......)
PS: It's so hot, I don't want to move.
