Chapter 253: The Knight of the Firmament
The distance of two hundred miles in the world of Lilliputia is a full thousand meters away in Xiao Yu's eyes.
Before encountering Xiao Yu, Lilliputian's war machine could fire at this distance...... Not a single one!
Even if it is a large war machine concocted by master craftsmen and wizards like the Dragon Slayer Crossbow, the range is about the same as Xiao Yu's toothpick crossbow.
If you want to shoot a kilometer, you can still kill the enemy...... It's just overthinking.
In the floating fortress of the Thousand Feather Empire, the white-clothed general instinctively didn't believe it at first, but after seeing the distant fire with his own eyes, he had to order the shield of the floating fortress to be opened.
At the same time, he invoked the witchcraft array on the floating fortress, and blasted out dozens of witchcraft rays and collided with the cannonballs that were rapidly breaking through the air.
The cannonballs, about the size of red apples, leaned against their sturdy shells, ignoring the rays fired from the floating fortress, and at best, frost or orange-red spots appeared in some parts.
"Witchcraft doesn't work!"
Many wizards screamed.
The white-clothed general also turned pale, and said in a low voice: "Have you calculated the landing point!" ”
"It's the Canglong City Floating Fortress!"
"Canglong City! Wait a minute...... I remember that the deputy city lord of Canglong City is a descendant of the strongest transcendent knight in the empire, the Cangzhi Knight! ”
"Yes, General, Lord Qiancanglong, who has inherited the title of Knight of Canglong, is on the fortress of Canglong City!"
"It's his words...... Maybe you can block this attack! ”
The white-clothed general was relieved when he heard this, and pinned his hopes on the knight of the blue.
At the edge of a floating fortress that was about to be hit, a tall knight dressed in full-body knight plate armor and covered in silver gland stood on the edge of the island, raising his ancestral long sword with both hands and aiming at the cannonballs that were breaking through the wind.
The heir of the Knight of the Sky was not alone in resisting that incredible attack at this time.
At the same time that the witchcraft was ineffective, hundreds of transcendents in the fortress rallied behind the knight of Changji, and together they formed a formation to export their extraordinary aura to the knight.
"Battle Skill ~ Canglong Roar!"
The knight of Changji gathered extraordinary aura, making his whole person seem to turn into a polymer of silver light, and under the light, he even turned into a light man!
And as he stabbed out the long sword and launched his strongest blow, the silver light shook violently, and it actually illuminated most of the floating fortress under the silver light and shadow!
Eye-catching very!
The knight's long sword also turned into a hundred-meter-level lifelike phantom under this silver light, with the extraordinary aura of hundreds of transcendents behind him, and with the expectation of the entire Canglong City fortress~ crashed into the flying cannonball.
Rumble!
The phantom collided with the cannonball.
The sound generated by the collision instantly swept through the surrounding space, making the people of the floating fortress experience what it means to be deafening.
"Worthy of being the successor of the Knight of the Firmament!"
"Great, blocked ~ blocked!"
The adjutants behind the white-clothed general cheered when they saw the cannonballs that were blocked high in the air in front of them, obviously stagnant.
The knight of the long gun, who had placed everyone's expectations, also roared with all his strength at the last moment, and after the phantom of the long jail shot the cannonball away, he lowered his arms a little out of strength.
The phantom of Changji lost its support and immediately dissipated into the air.
The silver light also dimmed after the last of its beauty.
"What a terrible giant war artifact!"
The knight of Changji was born in a famous family of the Thousand Feather Empire, and is the proud son of the Thousand Feather Empire.
His extraordinary talent coupled with an excellent cultivation environment made him one of the only two second-level peak extraordinary combat powers in this expedition.
With the full set of knight artifact sets on his body, plus the family heirloom Changji in his hand.
His actual combat power has reached the pseudo-third-level level, and he is fully qualified to advance to the first echelon of the strong team in the Thousand Feather Empire.
But...... As strong as him, backed by the strength of everyone, he just blocked the blow from a long distance, and he was almost weak!
The knight looked up at the city of miracles in front of him again, and he no longer had the confidence he had before.
"Hurry up!"
The white-clothed general issued another order: "Take advantage of the other party's artifact to cool down, get closer!" ”
"Without the city of miracles of giants, we can definitely win!"
The white-clothed general boosts morale, and is about to let the wizards release a jubilant and motivating time.
In the distance, in the same location, the same firelight appeared again!
"What a joke!"
"An attack like that...... The attack interval can be that short! ”
Finding that the shells flew out again, these people did not believe a hundred.
Unbeknownst to them, every charge of the modified cannon had been prepared in advance, and that the dwarven reinforced metal reinforced barrel was of good quality and reliable sealing.
Immediately after the firing was completed, a large number of artillery men climbed in and cleaned it with professional tools.
Of course, with Xiao Yu's wealth, the target is the artillery battalion that has been following him.
Now it is natural that everyone is extraordinary, infinitely powerful, and nimble.
They raced against time to complete the cleaning and reassemble it to complete the launch preparations.
The first shell had just been exhausted by the enemy's efforts.
"I ...... I really want to scold ...... right now."
When the knight saw the cannonball attacking again, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his body was cold.
He took a deep breath and turned his head to see his companions looking at him expectantly.
In the distance, his superior, the famous white-clothed general of the empire, was also watching him.
The Knight of the Long Tree realized...... At this moment, I am no longer just a person!
His back has been pinned on everyone's expectations, and he ~ is under a lot of pressure!
A drop of cold sweat quietly and slowly fell from his face.
He felt as if the wind had stopped all around him.
His heart was beating faster and faster.
Looking at the cannonballs in front of him, which were more than a hundred times larger than himself, tearing through the air.
The knight finally lifted the knight again.
And then...... Burst out with a blinding silver glow!
"Long live the Knight!" Seeing the reaction of the knight, the others cheered.
"The title of the Knight of the Sky is glory and obligation!"
"As a knight...... I must not retreat! ”
The Knight of Changji felt a large amount of transcendent aura behind him.
It's just that the amount is much less than this time.
With a wry smile, the knight gritted his teeth and flew up, turning into a dazzling silver ball of light that collided with the cannonball.
Rumble!
Another collision appeared in front of the floating fortress.
Only this time, the silver light just collided with the steel shell of the cannonball, and it disappeared in an instant.
It seemed that the whole knight was just an illusion, an illusion.
Didn't even slow down the shells!
The cannonball directly penetrated the scattered silver light, smashed the shield of the Canglong City Floating Fortress, and bombarded it, causing the entire floating fortress to shake in mid-air!
"Huh?"
Witnessing this scene, the white-clothed general opened his mouth wide and glanced at the equally dumbfounded adjutant beside him.
"Say...... What about the chivalry of the sky? A wizard who saw the mystery inside muttered, "I knew that these famous family members ...... How would you sacrifice yourself for the sake of others! ”
