Chapter 163: Terrifying Gunshots
When Osilia returned three days later, she found that the workshop, which had been very noisy, had become very quiet.
The steam machine stopped turning, the tools were put back in their place, cleaned up, and Wren sat down in his chair to rest, as if waiting for himself.
At his feet, there were two things, one on the left and one on the right.
One was a large metal box, boxy, and I don't know what it contained, and the other was a long strip wrapped in black cloth, which must have been the result of ten days of Wren's hard work.
"Your Excellency the Earl......" Osilia withdrew her curious gaze and was about to ask.
Wren stood up on his own and said, "Ma'am, it's time for us to go." β
"Go?" Osilia was a little puzzled, "Where are you going?"
"Of course, it's the Blue Water High Castle, take back what belongs to me. Wren had an inexplicable smile on his face, but it didn't look like a joke at all, "Please take me back to the Magic Hotel." β
Osilia was surprised, but opened any door anyway.
Wren picked up two things, returned to his hotel room, and immediately went out, informing all the Silver Knights and the Secret Fire Guard, and immediately went downstairs to assemble.
They followed Wren to Modu, but they stayed in the hotel and didn't go out, and they were almost suffocated.
When he heard Wren's order, he didn't hesitate.
Wren called Pansier, whispered a few words to her, and then threw his things into the trunk of the car, got into the driver's seat, and drove himself.
Osilia sat incognito in the back seat of the car.
Coming out of the hotel, Wren drove straight to the airship take-off and landing platform, followed by the others.
A moment later, the airship landed, and under the surprised eyes of many passengers, Wren took the silver-clad knights and sailed all the way to the direction of Bishui Street.
Wren focused on driving, but at the same time, he did not forget to turn on the sound of everything and listen to the movements around him.
In fact, as soon as he left the hotel, he had already heard the watchman hiding in the shadows, and he was ventilating the news through the microphone.
It is impossible to hide such a big move from the eyes and ears of the enemy.
However, Wren didn't care, even if the people in the Blue Water High Fort were prepared, the result would not be any different.
Halfway through the drive, not far from Bishui Street, Osilia noticed that Wren had suddenly picked up speed, but the Silver Knight did not follow in time and was left behind.
Osilia thought that something had changed, and couldn't help but prompt: "Your Excellency, your people didn't keep up......"
"I know," Wren said unconcernedly, "I ordered it." β
This attack on the Blue Water High Castle was intended to be an attempt, both as a counterattack against the Modu nobles and as a firing test for his machine guns.
If he fails, he will have a chance to get out under the protection of Osiria.
But the Silver Knight is not so easy, so let them keep their distance, don't participate in the battle at the first time, advance or retreat, so as not to sacrifice in vain.
And Wren also knows that in fact, many knights in silver armor are not confident in attacking the blue water high castle.
Osilia finally understood what Wren was going to do, "You want to attack the Blue Water High Fort alone?"
"Yes. Wren nodded slightly.
He didn't look at the invisible's current expression on Osilia, but he must have thought he was crazy, and he didn't want to explain more.
After a long while, when she was about to arrive at the castle, she spoke up: "The teacher asked you to attract the attention of the Mordu nobles and disturb their secret plans, as long as you walk around the city of Mordo and investigate some clues by the way, but I didn't let you come to die." β
Wren certainly knew what Master Anthy meant, but he didn't want to be a pawn at the mercy of others.
"Wouldn't it be better to strike at the enemy if we could capture the Blue Water High Fort?" he asked rhetorically.
Osilia shook her head helplessly, this person is crazy!
Soon, Bishui Street arrived.
Wren could see from a distance that the city wall at the foot of the hill was already full of guards, and the gate opposite the stone arch bridge was closed, and it was obvious that they were ready to defend themselves.
The car stopped abruptly at the bridge, and Wren calmly got out of the car.
The Silver Knight and the Secret Fire Guard stopped in the distant street, not following.
This surprised the people who were secretly watching, and did not understand what the Earl of Glamorgan was up to.
Wren stood on the bridge, took out a letter and unfolded it to the castle, and said in a loud voice: "I am the new Earl of Glamorgan, Wren Augustus, in accordance with Article 7 of the Imperial Succession Law, today I officially take back the reign of the county of Glamorgan, and give you five minutes to open the city gates, exit the castle of Bishui Gao, or pledge allegiance to me, otherwise you will be regarded as an intruder, and exercise the rights of the lord to destroy you." β
His voice was extremely loud and heard far away.
Not only the people in the castle could hear it, but also most of the people on the street.
As soon as this remark came out, countless people were in an uproar.
"Haha, does he want to shout a few words and take back the territory? What a naΓ―ve fool!"
"He's not a fool, he's a madman. β
"How could the Duke of Silver Star canonize a madman to become the Earl of Glamorgan, and only give five minutes, it is simply looking for death. β
In the Voice of All Things, people's voices came from all directions, mostly mocking Wren.
The guards standing on the city wall also looked at Wren with the eyes of onlookers like fools, and the guards made a gesture of wiping his neck at him, with a face full of banter.
Even the silver-clad knights in the distance exchanged words for a while, their eyes full of puzzlement.
Wren was unmoved, he deliberately only gave five minutes, in fact, he didn't want to negotiate with the other party.
Under normal circumstances, the receiving territory should be given at least a few days or even half a month buffer time, and the other party will also drag it out, and five minutes is not enough to even drink a cup of tea, there is nothing to talk about at all.
Sure enough, there was no movement in the castle, and the governor of the territory did not come out.
The legendary wizard Maitir I had seen before did not show up, and he didn't take himself seriously at all.
"That's exactly what I wanted. β
The corners of Wren's mouth went up, and he stood on the bridge, very patiently waiting.
Five minutes passed quickly, and as soon as the time was up, he immediately turned back to the car and opened the trunk.
Under the watchful eyes of the people, Wren carried a metal box to his back and took out something wrapped in a black cloth.
From the upper left corner of the box, he pulled out a palm-wide strap and inserted it into the black cloth in his hand.
Seeing this scene, everyone was confused.
"What is he going to do?"
"What's the black cloth wrapped?" someone asked curiously.
No one could answer, but the answer was soon revealed, and Wren lifted the black cloth, and Rambo's spear appeared for the first time in front of the world.
The huge and heavy body of the gun, with a long barrel, immediately reminded people of the soul gun.
"Is there such a big soul gun?"
Before the thought fell, the gunshots rang out!
Dada......
A dense burst of gunfire pierced the sky, like raindrops, ringing in the ears continuously, and like a rumbling thunder, reminiscent of thunder in a rainstorm.
Wren's hand was steady, without a trace of shaking, and the recoil, which was difficult for ordinary people to control, was almost non-existent to him.
Tongues of fire erupt from the muzzle.
The bullets rained down on the guards on the city walls like a metal storm.
These guards were transcendental, and they had no idea how to deal with weapons they had never seen before, and they stood there like targets, and the bullets invisible to the naked eye tore through their armor in an instant, shooting through their bodies, and they didn't even have time to let out a scream.
Wren shifted the muzzle of his gun and swept it from left to right.
It took less than five seconds to clear the dozen or so guards on the city wall as if it had swept away a spider's web, and the scattered corpses fell, staining the ground red with blood.
The gunfire stopped, and silence fell all around.
Everyone froze.
Osilia in the car could no longer maintain her calm, and was about to jump out of the car, the silver knights and the secret fire guards in the distance were all stunned, and the countless residents and merchants who were secretly watching the jokes turned pale and full of fear.
With a gun in his right hand, Wren sped up on the stone arch bridge, and in a flash, he stood on top of the city wall.
In the castle at the top of the hill, a large number of guards poured out and rushed down the hillside.
In the Eye of the Soul, most of these guards are first- to second-level Iron Guards, as well as a few Gunslingers and Rangers, as well as other otherworldly classes.
Among them are mid-level masters, berserkers, warlocks, and shadow warriors.
At the end, the legendary wizard Maitiel finally appeared, and he slowly flew out of the castle, but did not make any immediate move, as if he sensed the anomaly, and was very cautious.
From the castle at the top of the hill to the gate at the foot of the mountain, there is all green grass, and there is no shelter at all.
Wren licked his lips and waited for more than ten seconds until the guard rushed to the foot of the hill, less than twenty meters from the gate, and pulled the trigger.
Dada......
Horrific gunfire rang out again.
