Chapter 184: The Battle of Spartacus

In order to keep the march fast, Rexton's army was not equipped with bulky catapults, but they brought something much more terrible - artillery.

The Fish-People also had weapons developers, and by capturing the cannons on Peterley and Rinis's ships, they quickly figured out how this thing worked, and the reason why it took so long to retaliate was that the study of artillery really took up a large part of the time.

Twenty cannons are lined up on the high ground, as a race that has dominated the sea for hundreds of years, Fish-Man Island certainly has no shortage of resources and excellent craftsmen, just from the appearance of the caliber of the Fish-Man artillery is no less than the latest artillery developed by Lear, and the carving of the cannon body is more rough and wild than the sea.

"Ignition!" Captain Latte roared and waved the flag in his hand, since the rise of Lear, the Fish-People really have not suffered less from artillery, and now the time has come for a tooth for a tooth, how can they not hate itchy.

"Boom, boom, boom!" After a continuous burst of cannonballs, dozens of iron balls immediately exploded on the walls of Spartacus, and the first round was only a test firing with adjusted angles, and the landing points of the cannonballs were uneven.

But even so, the crimson firelight still stained half of the sky red, and the moonlight divided the heavens and the earth, half of the darkness and silence, and the other half was like a karmic fire purgatory.

To Late's surprise, the heavy shelling left only twenty small pits on the enemy's walls, not even many of the rocks that had exploded, which was far from the effect he had expected to open at least a few large holes in the walls for the warriors to pass through.

Obviously, he had never heard of such a thing as cement, and every boulder was enchanted by the priest of the Brotherhood when it was glued, not to mention artillery, and even Melos could only hit a pit in the wall when he frantically attacked the city wall that had not yet been fully built, and now under the will of the dragon god, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was impregnable.

"Reload, fire, aim at the female wall of the castle tower this time!" the unbelieving latte roared again, even if it was a copper wall, he was going to blast it out today.

So when his second round of artillery shot down on the tower, there was finally a reaction under the dragon flag fluttering in the wind.

"Atmospheric Aegis. As the voice fell, a white air shield more than ten meters long and several meters high appeared directly above the gate, with Lear's current level of magic power, even without a magic scroll, he could almost reach the level of saying what he could say when casting this kind of mid-to-low-level magic.

"Boom!" The moment the three cannonballs hit the air shield, there was a violent explosion, and the dazzling fire also illuminated Lear's face under the dragon flag, and behind him, countless warriors rushed up, standing between the gaps in the female wall with high fighting spirit.

About half of the twenty shells landed on the edge of the wall, but the left and right shells also appeared at the point of landing with air shields, and the rest exploded on the main body of the wall, leaving a few dents as shallow as before.

Adela, Raymond, Merlan, Ivo, Haag and other combatants lined up on the city walls, staring coldly at the fish-men below, the eyes of the cadres of the two sides meeting fiercely in mid-air, the cold moonlight shining like sparks of hatred.

"Stop shelling. ”

A huge shield wrapped in evil aura suddenly appeared in Renekton's left hand, with a black and silver edge, and a strange demon head carved in the center of the shield, just one more glance, it seems that it can suck the souls of others.

In his right hand, he held a huge mace, which seemed to be made of wood, but there was a savage and bloodthirsty aura on it, and each wooden thorn was like a blood-drinking tooth, urging those who possessed it to kill, to destroy, to smash the heads of all enemies.

On the ring finger of his right hand lurked quietly a ring of strange shapes, like gold without any luster, but even more bizarre, even the moonlight falling on its round ring was completely absorbed and swallowed, and the two cutting lines crossed into a cross on the ring surface, like the mark of time.

After two rounds of shelling, Renekton had already discovered that the artillery that the Elders had placed high hopes on and the Institute had sworn to be invincible was actually useless.

Originally, he didn't have much confidence in this kind of thing, but when the clan decided to delay the attack on Misty Island, he was even more strongly opposed, giving the enemy time to grow and prepare for no reason, is there a more stupid strategy than this?

But the High Priest claimed to have received an oracle from the god of the sea, and even though he was the most famous warrior of the Fish-People, he could do nothing about it.

With Renekton's movements, a circle of azure light began to spread from under his feet, and it enveloped the entire battlefield at a rapid speed.

And the fish-man warriors shrouded in this blue light suddenly felt that their bodies were full of power, and a thick evil aura enveloped their bodies, completely protecting them.

"Offense. ”

Renekton coldly gave the order.

Thousands of balls of light rose from behind Renekton, at first like fireflies that lit up the night sky, but soon turned into stars that fell to the ground, and when they were about to fall on the city walls, they became the size of basketballs.

Oceanomancer's ranged attack!

"Boom!"

The kilometer-wide walls were suddenly covered in a glittering light, and even though the priests of the Brotherhood tried their best to shield them, the huge difference in numbers still created a huge gap in defense.

With the exception of the section of the wall where Lear was located, there were a number of casualties at once.

Blood splattered on the aisle of the women's wall, and at least hundreds of soldiers screamed and fell to the bottom of the city, directly falling into a puddle of flesh.

What's even more bizarre is that those balls of light did not disperse immediately after exploding to kill, but instead turned into spell effects and spread across the city walls.

Evil spells, weakness, sluggishness, etc., these negative spells continue to eat away at the bodies of ordinary warriors, and even the priests of the Blind Brotherhood are affected.

Dozens of bands of pirates and sea elves, under the cover of witches and sea warlocks, lifted the ladder and rushed towards the city wall with a shout, and behind them, Latte began to direct the artillery to turn the muzzle and aim in the direction of the city gate.

"Boom!" seemed to be the only main theme of the night, and the loud sound of twenty cannon salvos once again shook the night sky, but a solid earth shield immediately appeared in front of the city gates.

Even if there is a moat, the city gate is still an important barrier that cannot easily be used against the enemy.

The green glow of the Aegis Hercules shattered after a violent shaking, but the enemy's artillery fire was stopped.

But in the interval of a few seconds, the screaming pirates had already rushed to the moat, and they set up the long ladder above the wide river as a pontoon bridge, and then carried the ladder again, and rushed straight towards the towering wall.

"Tuze, you take command. ”

Lear looked coldly at the high ground in the distance, he was still waiting, waiting for the moment when the enemy was completely gathered, because he had not seen the figure of the sea dragon until now, since it was a battle to destroy the city, it was impossible for the Fish-Man Clan not to come out.

"Yes, sir!"

A tall figure stepped out from behind Lear, and after taking over the command, he did not hesitate to give several orders, the archers were in position, and the artillery of one door was pushed into the gap between the female walls, and even the senior cadres such as Adela and Ivo were unceremoniously assigned tasks by him.

Seeing this, Lear nodded slightly, Tu Ze was good at guarding, and he really lived up to his reputation.

"Fire oil and wood!Destroy the ladder first!Shooter set fire to the moat area!Mage Priest pay attention to protection!"

Tu Ze slammed out the double-sided broad-bladed greatsword at his waist, and then slashed away with a single sword the head of the sea elf who had just exposed his head on the gap in the female wall.

"Boom!" The artillery on the city wall began to counterattack, because of the problem of shooting pitch angle, it was slightly difficult for the fish-man's artillery to reach the city wall more than ten meters high, but it was relatively easy for the artillery fire on the city wall to cover the artillery position of the fish-people.

It was only because of the accuracy correction that the first round of Spartacus shelling did not cause a devastating blow to the latte, only a few shells exploded around the fish-man artillery array, but the dirt and gravel kicked off and the huge dirt pit left behind also scared the latte enough.

"Fight back! Fight back!"

The raging latte spat out a mouthful of mud and sand and roared hysterically.

"Boom!"

Tonight is destined to be sleepless.
