Chapter 529: The Mage's Duel

The screams rang out again, but this time it was the turn of the Northerners. The Iron Armored Ladders were undoubtedly impregnable mobile fortresses, but under the scorching fire, these Iron Armored Ladders turned into immovable iron coffins, and the northern soldiers who were hiding inside were suffocated to death by the high temperature.

Seeing that the most abominable ironclad ladder had been resolved, the soldiers of the kingdom defending the city cheered. It's just that their joy didn't last long, but after a while, there was a slight fishy smell, and the strange smell of the meat being roasted faintly came.

"It's the Northerners, they...... They're cooked!", one soldier reacted and exclaimed. As a result, the smile just now turned into an iron blue or even pale face, and even many soldiers were nauseated and vomited.

Although they all hated these invading northern soldiers, they wished to kill them all in the next hour and the next moment. However, this way of dying is not unavoidable...... It was too cruel, and many people had unbearable looks on their faces.

However, General Villeneuve's shout immediately pulled them back to reality from their rare sadness: "Don't relax, the next offensive of the Northern Army is about to begin!"

"Without the suppression of the ladder this time, they should choose to attack! All kinds of equipment are ready, everyone cheers up!", the soldiers at this time remembered that they had no room for sympathy for the enemy, and they would be greeted by another fierce battle!

......

Turning back the clock slightly, in the tent of the Northern Army, a group of generals surrounded General Jetton, observing the battle in full swing.

"I really didn't expect these siege engines to be so useful, I think I can capture Shining City today. A general said in admiration.

"And the losses of our army are not serious, which lays the foundation for our army to attack Shenghui City later. ", added another general.

General Jeton was equally satisfied, and before the battle began, he had had doubts about what Mage Bent called a "lethal weapon", but by now those doubts had been dispelled by living facts.

He smiled and said to Mage Bent beside him, "I don't know where the Duke got these siege machines? ”

"Dwarves there. Mage Bent looked at everyone's surprised faces and said with a slight sarcasm, "Didn't you think of it? How could it be that we human craftsmen could make a machine that was difficult to forge? Moreover, if we want to forge such an iron-armored ladder, we have to consume a lot of refined iron, and where can there be so many stocks of refined iron in the north, and only dwarves can spend so much resources to create such a siege weapon. ”

When he said this, everyone suddenly realized that the generals were wondering before: why didn't they know about such siege equipment before, and they didn't even have a rumor about it, it turned out to be purchased from the dwarves, no wonder they didn't know anything.

"But it's amazing that the Duke was able to buy such a siege weapon from the dwarves. If we can form an alliance with the dwarves in the north, we will no longer be afraid of the attacks of the dark elves. Another general exclaimed.

The generals also praised him for saying this, and for them, the dwarves who could provide as many weapons as possible were undoubtedly the most ideal allies. Only General Jetton frowned slightly, and his heart was slightly uneasy.

"He, a young man who has just inherited the title of the Falcon family, has not even sorted out the affairs of the northern realm, how did he get in touch with the dwarven clan and form an alliance? You must know that the dwarf clan is the most xenophobic, although the heads of the Falcon family in the past generations have the idea of befriending the dwarf clan, but it has never been realized, how can he do it, how can he accomplish a great cause that all the previous family heads could not do?"

It's just that although he has all kinds of doubts in his stomach now, he is just suffering from his speculation, and there is no evidence, so he can only rot in his stomach.

"Either way, an alliance with the dwarves is beneficial and harmless, and without the siege equipment they have provided, how could we have taken Shining City so easily?", General Villeneuve comforted himself.

At this moment, the fire that erupted from the head of the Shining City interrupted the generals' discussion, "It's not good! It's fire magic! The only weakness of this ironclad ladder is that it is afraid of fire." Master Bent's face changed and he said.

"Aren't the soldiers hiding in the ladder dangerous?", General Jetton also shouted badly, and hurriedly arranged for rescue.

"I'm afraid it's too late. Mage Bent looked at it for a while and shook his head, "The Northern Legion may have used the magic circle, which is why it is so powerful, and now the warriors in the ladder are probably all sacrificed." ”

General Jetton's face darkened suddenly, "Liston, you go and supervise the next attack." We still have to be naΓ―ve, since we want to gnaw this hard bone, we always have to attack. Ex, you go and prepare all kinds of lighting materials, as well as food to replenish your strength, and we are ready for a night battle!", General Jetton gave several orders without hesitation. Now that the Iron Ladder was useless, he was ready to carry out the planned assault.

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion. Since he had already inflicted a lot of damage on the kingdom army defending the city with the help of the iron armored ladder, he was ready to capture Shining City in one go. Never give the Northern Legion defending the city a chance to breathe.

"Hehe, why should the general be in a hurry. Although a strong attack can conquer Glorious City in a short time, the losses are bound to be heavy. With such a tired army, how can they carry out their plan to conquer the city of Radiance?", said Mage Bent to stop General Jetton.

"Oh, what do you have in mind for that big deal?", because of these siege equipment, General Villeneuve trusted Mage Bent a lot.

"Since there are mages in the Northern Army on the other side, don't forget, there are also mages in our Northern Army. Rest assured, the magic group I lead will never lose to the mages of the kingdom. ”

General Jetton hesitated, but agreed. The mages of the Kingdom Army are a huge threat when defending the city, and if they cannot be solved, the Northern Army will inevitably pay an extremely heavy price, as Master Bent said, for the next plan to attack the Yellow Dragon, it is quite unfavorable.

"Please be careful. "If you fail, it will be a huge blow to the morale of our army. ”

"Hehe, don't worry. As far as the art of killing people is concerned, the mages of these kingdoms are just some third-rate half-assers. Mage Bent said with a smile.

General Jetton looked at his smile and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. Killing was his profession, and he had become insensitized to constant death, but even in a barracks full of executioners, he rarely saw such a smile.

It was a naked contempt and ridicule of life.

That's the smile of a real "killer".
