Chapter 278
"Demon Breaker Arrow!"
Barrymore roared in shock, the deck under his feet shaking violently, apparently because the Magic Breaker Arrow had destroyed the magic circuit of the magic airship.
Demon-breaking materials are very rare, and Barrymore didn't expect the other party to shoot hundreds of demon-breaking arrows. If only the plating on the tip of the arrow was a demon-breaking material, it would definitely not have such a big impact on the magic circuit of the magic airship. So, it's hundreds of arrows made of demon-destroying materials!
However, arrows made of all demon-destroying materials cannot be shot with magic power and magic bows, and their demon-breaking properties will only make the magic archers helpless, and the magic bows and crossbows will also be invalid. In order for the Demon Breaker Arrow to gain immense power and reach the power of a magic airship that can shoot high in the air, it must be a pure power mechanical crossbow that is powerful enough and made of high-grade alloy materials with no magical properties!
The mechanical crossbow instantly reminded Barrymore of the Rose family. However, at this time, he didn't have the time to think about the conspiracy behind this, because of the interference of the Demon Breaking Arrow, the magic airship lost the opportunity to bombard those giant crossbows on the ground, and now the dozen or so high-level powerhouses have already placed the giant crossbows, aiming at the two magic airships in the air and starting to shoot.
"Activate the Wind Film Enchantment!" Barrymore quickly made a judgment, and at the same time lamented in his heart, this link is linked, and he is even cautious, but he still falls into the trap of the enemy!
The two magic airships released the wind, and the swirling wind tried to form a jujube-shaped whirlwind belt to protect the airship itself, but only one of them succeeded, and the other staggered around in the air, and finally stopped the release of the wind.
"Marshal, the Glory's magic circuit is broken, and it can't activate the Wind Mask Enchantment!Ahhhhhh
Compared to the Blazing magic airship that Marshal Barrymore was riding, the other Glory had a worse performance, so it was the first to go wrong.
Unable to create a wind film barrier to protect itself, and the Glory that was shaky and unstable, it was shot by six huge crossbow arrows, these crossbow arrows were more than five meters long, and the adult man's thigh was thick, not only was its own material extremely hard and extremely sharp, but the giant crossbow that shot them was obviously a power-type magic crossbow of the 8th order, so it added a very strong kinetic energy to these huge crossbow arrows, making them easily penetrate the solid outer deck of the magic airship.
The Glory that was hit was even weaker, almost incapacitated, but Barrymore was powerless to rescue, because more crossbow arrows were coming towards the Blazing on his side, and even if there was a wind film barrier, he did not dare to let those giant crossbows attack, so he could only order to dodge with all his might.
After a round of shooting, only two crossbow arrows hit, but they were derailed by the wind film barrier, and could only fly away from the edge of the magic airship.
However, at this moment, Barrymore's eyes were white, and a huge explosion sounded overhead, and the entire magic airship jumped with it.
"Caught by a lightning strike, I've already turned on the lightning protection!" Barrymore was shocked when he felt a powerful electric current released above his head.
Then he found out that it was actually the Glory that was really struck by lightning, and at this time the Glory had already fallen to the ground with black smoke all over its body!
"Those bolts have a lightning channeling effect!" Barrymore instantly figured out that it was the bolts that had destroyed the lightning protection defenses of the magic airship and attracted lightning in the air - that the weather magic was not just about lowering the altitude of the magic airship......
In addition, for the Blazing, although it dodged the crossbow arrows, the crossbow arrows shot high in the air still attracted thunder and lightning, and since these crossbow arrows were concentrated on the Blazing, the lightning would explode above its head, so close, if they were unlucky, they still had a high chance of being hit!
"The Blazing retreats at full speed!" "Before he had time to grieve the loss of a magic airship, Barrymore reluctantly ordered. Air combat power is no longer good, and it can only be fought on the ground.
However, at this moment, he saw a sail spaceship flying from the direction of Star Wolf Mountain, far more simple than the magic airship, in the harsh stormy weather created by meteorological magic, it actually exerted a speed comparable to that of a magic airship with excellent performance.
"Boom!" When there were still ten miles to go, the sail ship fired a shot at the Blazing.
The Blazing Spirit, whose magic circuit had been damaged by the Demon Breaker Arrow, had its flight speed greatly reduced, and it had to retreat while forcibly receiving the attack of the sail ship.
The only good thing is that due to the power, the sailboat is equipped with a magic crystal cannon, so the Blazing can handle it.
As the sailship flew over the army, the magic cannons below bombarded it, and the sailship dodged in a rain of bullets like swifts, while dropping a large number of magic bombs from the cabin in return.
The air-to-ground advantage was suddenly revealed, the sail ship could flexibly dodge the attack on the ground, but the army on the ground could not dodge the magic bomb, so it could only rely on the magician and the monster to arrange the defense, and the explosion of the bomb also blocked the sight of the artillery on the ground, so that they could not aim, so soon the entire army was turned on the back by this sail ship.
Such means...... For the first time in his decades of leading the army, Barrymore felt a chill to his bones, only to feel as if there were countless traps waiting for him around him, and no matter what he did, he would only fall deeper and deeper.
After half an hour of fighting, the scarred Blazing finally got rid of the bad weather created by the meteorological magic, and behind it was already within the range of Green Peak City, those giant crossbows like maggots and tarsal bones no longer appeared, and the sail ship walked around triumphantly before leaving.
The army that remained in place only lost a few hundred men under the bombardment of the previous sail ships, but when the Blazing retreated, Rex, the king of the Nia Kingdom, suddenly appeared with 6,000 elite soldiers and slaughtered the army of Tibarabi.
In normal times, 6,000 people dared to attack an army of 30,000 people, no matter how elite the troops were, it was no different from sending them to death, but at this moment, Tibarabi's army had been thrown into a mess by the bombardment of the sail spaceship, and it was difficult to stabilize its position, so it was killed by the battle maniacs led by Rex like a sharp knife piercing tofu!
Rex rode Tucker, the black-footed mountain bear, with a pair of black wings sticking out from his back, and held a crimson magic sword at the front to lead the soldiers to charge and kill. Whether he encounters a large number of enemies or a huge magical beast, he first throws out a fire rope with his left hand to explode, and then the magic sword in his right hand slashes at the approaching enemy.
With the support of multiple means and the super magic power of the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, Rex is simply invincible. Occasionally, there will be powerful magicians to intercept them, and even release 9th-order magic from scrolls or magic items, but Rex has a lot of preparations on his side, he himself has a few high-level magic storage stones infused with 9th-order magic by Moeller, and several lieutenants behind him also have 9th-order scrolls that can be activated at any time.
Within a few minutes, Rex led 6,000 elite soldiers to kill one in and one out of the enemy's army, and thousands of enemy troops were killed by them, but this was not the most important result. The real purpose of this raid on Rex was to destroy the enemy's magic cannon - he led his troops into the artillery camp, dumping a pile of destructive miniature bombs, whistling past, leaving only a scrap of magic cannons.
The angry Tibarabi army was about to surround and strangle Rex's 6,000 people, but the Phantom Beast Corps led by Brandon rushed from the air to kill, the Phantom Beast Corps is a corps formed by Brandon after the Starlight Corps, the number is less than 800 people, but the members are all intermediate or above practitioners, and the manipulator Phantom Beast fights in the air and is extremely mobile.
Tibarabi's army, which had been abolished by Rex, was unable to effectively intercept Brandon's Phantom Beast Corps, so he tasted air-to-ground suppression again.
The magical image of Barimor Guò watched the battlefield and was powerless to see this situation, so he ordered the army to retreat as well, only to be ambushed by archers and a newly formed artillery battalion led by Eriba. Fortunately, Barrymore was old and serious, and even if he withdrew his troops, he did not panic, and under the effective defense, he did not cause too many casualties.
After this battle, the 30,000 soldiers and horses brought by Barrymore to attack Star Wolf Mountain were beaten and retreated before they reached the ground, nearly 3,000 soldiers were killed, and five or six thousand were wounded, and the worst thing was that a precious magic airship fell into the hands of the enemy, and when the entire army returned to Green Peak City, it was a gloomy fog.
"Marshal, Hoffman asks to see you. The words of the guards made all the generals in the hall frown, although they had all seen the power of the Nia Kingdom today, but their contempt for Hoffman would not be reduced because of this, and even the negative feelings caused by the successive defeats made them even more disgusted with Hoffman, the defeated general who had opened an unfavorable situation.
"He is still guilty, is he still qualified to come to the discussion?" someone muttered dissatisfiedly.
"Let him in. Barrymore ignored the muttering of his men and gave the order.
"Your Excellency, Marshal. Hoffman, dressed in plain clothes, walked in, bowed his head in the eyes full of contempt and disgust from everyone, and said to Barrymore: "I just heard about the battle, the appearance of the Nia Kingdom is definitely not simple, now it is not only a problem for our Southwest Army, I am afraid that there will be chaos in other places, please remind Your Majesty, be careful that the Kingdom of Li is likely to counterattack!"
As soon as Hoffman's words fell, and before Barry Moore could react, a hot-tempered general couldn't help but scold: "Now that we ourselves have been beaten so much that we can't lift our heads, you still have the kung fu to go to other people's leisure!"
Barrymore waved his hand to stop the furious general and said to Hoffman, "I see, you can go back." ”
"But ......" Hoffman wanted to say something, but when he met the teacher's cold eyes, his spine couldn't help but bend, and he turned away with a gloomy expression.
Leaving the council office, Hoffman walked aimlessly, the area of Green Peak City is not large, and the more than 30,000 soldiers living in it are very crowded, along the way Hoffman saw many unwilling to talk and shout - Tibarabi soldiers will not lose the courage to fight because of defeat, after the defeat of the decadence, they are more looking forward to revenge!
Marveling at the bravery of his own soldiers, Hoffman couldn't help but smile a little, but when he saw him, the soldiers did not rush over as enthusiastically as before, but remained silent, watching from a distance with complicated eyes.
The smile on his lips quickly disappeared, and Hoffman quickened his pace to leave, and before he knew it, he was at the wounded barracks - the three thousand remnants who had returned with him had been checked and had not contracted the terrible plague from the smell of potions on the battlefield before, but most of them had been sent to the wounded barracks - after the terrible lava and rubble flow, few of the soldiers who had come back alive were unharmed.
He went to the potions master in charge of the treatment to find out the situation, and the red-haired potions master, who was a little older, said, "There is nothing abnormal, it's just that there are more people with fever, but after drinking the potion to cure typhoid fever, it will be fine."
