Chapter 562: Break
And at the same time in the bridge of the sword in the stone.
The ears of Mycroft and the others were still buzzing, but the tremors under their feet seemed to have disappeared. Except for a few moans, the control room was dark and quiet.
Because of the Faraday cage effect, there was no noticeable damage to the personnel inside the warship.
However, the thunder and lightning that had just drifted in the air still made them feel numb.
Mycroft was even a little unsteady on his feet, and if it weren't for someone next to him to help him, he would have fallen by now.
"This is a Tesla cannon?" Watson seemed to recognize it, and he had seen it on the battlefield as well.
"It's Goliath." McCroft said calmly, "Oversized Tesla cannon." ”
The Tesla cannon was originally designed to be mounted on warships.
There is a limit to the amount of energy a warship can provide, and there is a limit to the damage it can do.
Therefore, after some scientists see the power of the Tesla cannon, they will naturally want to load the cannon on land.
If this cannon were to be made bigger and powered by the city's electrical system, would it be an exceptionally powerful air defense system - that's where Goliath comes from.
In fact, this is a very simple logic, and the destructive power is unquestionable.
But lightning is hard to control. Even the warships loaded with Tesla cannons themselves need to be insulated. Moreover, there should be no air targets of your own side within the range of the attack, otherwise it will be easily affected.
In fact, they had already tried this weapon many times before in the rest of the place. There are already many ways to prevent this weapon from reaching your side.
The imperial capital is the most important place in the whole of Britannia, so they have never experimented with Goliath in the imperial capital. Because such a large energy output, once an explosion occurs, the power produced may be second only to that of a nuclear bomb.
Scientists have been carrying out all kinds of foolproof adjustments and calculations.
In fact, the debugging work has been almost done, and if it weren't for the thunder and lightning in the sky, Goliath wouldn't have accidentally injured them. Rather, it will only kill air targets.
Although the addition of lightning from the outside world increased the power, it also affected them.
If it weren't for Leo's action, maybe most of these mecha troops on the ground would have been damaged.
At this moment, the entire Shizhong Sword was completely shut down, and the power system inside the warship was damaged by the lightning bombardment just now. The Sword in the Lake is not estimated to be much better.
"Fortunately, after the Tesla cannon came out, important parts of the interior of the large warship were insulated." James said happily.
Without this design, once the fuel tank and ammunition depot were ignited, the amount of ammunition carried by the current Sword in the Stone and the Sword in the Lake would ......
It's not just the people on these warships who have to die, but everyone in the entire square has to die.
In fact, the mechs on the ground have a similar design.
However, even so, there are still some mechs that have lost their combat ability by being electrified.
"But the effect is also obvious." Mycroft looked out through the window, with nothing but scattered demonic streets and a clean sky.
James nodded, but soon he gave orders around him.
"Hurry up and get it overhauled! Within two hours, the Sword in the Stone must regain its combat effectiveness! ”
The Sword in the Stone should just be some electrical components that have been destroyed. But in addition to the overall missile system of the Shizhongjian, those close defense guns should still be usable.
Mycroft turned his head to look at the center of the square, at Leo with his wand in hand.
The appearance of the demons on the ground who had just manipulated those thunderbolts to blast them on the ground made a great impression on him.
The Exorcism Division should be a relatively large organization in the wizarding world, and the director must have some abilities.
Under his watchful eye, some of the broken chains on the gates of hell were quickly repaired and rewound around the crucified demon.
At the same time, on the other side, behind the gates of hell, an even larger six-pointed star slowly appeared in their sight.
The black mist that roamed the city seemed to have found some catharsis and began to rush wildly towards the six-pointed star.
The six-pointed star was like a super-sized vacuum cleaner, sucking in all the black breath.
If you look down from the sky above the Imperial Capital, you can see that the entire Imperial Capital has formed a vortex of black gas centered on the Baal Church.
For some reason, as the black gas around him became more and more intense, the various depressed and unhappy emotions in Mycroft's heart became more and more intense, and there was even a feeling that he was about to explode.
In fact, it was not only him, but also the people around him.
Suddenly, a telegraph operator on one side shouted angrily, "Harry, I'm going to kill you!" ”
He threw a soldier on the other side to the ground, and the two men scuffled.
"These black gases are the negative emotions of the entire imperial capital." Locke explained on the side.
He raised his wand and rekindled the light of the Patronus Charm, dispelling the negativity of those around him.
The two men who were scuffling also seemed to have returned to normal and got up from the ground again.
They looked at their hands in confusion, and some didn't quite understand why they suddenly couldn't control their emotions.
But they were still a little ashamed to say to James.
"I'm sorry, Captain, we lost our temper."
"Get back to your post." James didn't blame them either, because he wasn't actually much better just now.
Locke slowly raised his head to look at the six-pointed star, "This ritual itself is not used to break the seal. It's a magic that collects all negative emotions.
And this six-pointed star is the real sealing body. ”
Under Mycroft's gaze, the chains that were wrapped around the gates of hell began to wrap around the six-pointed star.
The magicians in the middle chanted the spell faster.
Although there are quite a few of these magicians, they are considered to be the mainstay of the current wizarding world.
But compared to those demons in hell, it's still a bit unsightly.
However, the remaining power on the Gates of Hell allows them to perform some operations.
As they chanted the incantation, the power on the chains grew, and so did the chains on the six-pointed star.
But at this moment, in the distance, a "meteor" tore through the dark clouds and rushed towards the center of Baal Square.
Half of the sky was lit up by dazzling brilliance, so naturally it also attracted their attention.
McCroft reacted quickly and looked at the controllers.
"Has the hair system been repaired?"
"Not yet." The controller said, "Some of the more important electronic components are damaged, and it is very complicated to repair. ”
"What about the radio system?" Mycroft continued.
"It's too late." Sherlock looked at the magicians, who were the only ones who could react.
"They are now at the critical time of the seal, and they can't move." Locke spoke at this point.
James reacted, and shouted to the people around him with a serious face, "Whole ship, prepare for impact!" ”
Everyone fell to the ground, clutching their heads in preparation for the next impact.
Soon, though, Sherlock seemed to have something in mind.
"What about the Grim Reaper?"
Locke realized something, too, and jerked his head up to look out of the porthole.
Soon, he saw many black chains rush out of the void, sweeping towards the meteors in the air like tentacles.
The chains were precisely wound around the "meteor", and with the sound of chains clashing, the "meteor" really stopped in mid-air.
And in the surrounding void, a group of grim reapers, dressed in black robes and wearing bone masks, slowly appeared.
Of course, in the eyes of Sherlock and others, these Grim Reapers, all of them are somewhere between the virtual and the real. Because all the negativity in the city was sucked away by that six-pointed star.
With the meteor staggered and fell. They also saw what the meteor was.
It was a Centaur. Like a centaur, except that the lower half of his body is the body of a lion, and he also has four arms, a yellow messy hair scattered casually behind his head, and a mouth of fangs, like a humanoid lion.
He held a heavy sword in his hand, and black gas surrounded him, like a god and demon.
But at this moment, his limbs were chained by black chains, and even chains were wrapped around his neck.
He kept struggling, letting out an angry roar, like the low roar of a prairie lion, which was shocking.
But the chains of death clearly restrained these demons.
"That's supposed to be the Mar Bus." Locke spoke, "The fifth of the seventy-two demon gods is just a commander, not too strong. According to legend, his real body is a lion. ”
McCroft nodded.
After the Marbus was restrained, the surroundings gradually fell silent. It seems that because the chains of the Gates of Hell have been gradually repaired, there are many fewer demons coming to the world.
The magicians were about to succeed in restoring the seal, and everything seemed to settle down.
However, McCroft did not relax, his eyes fixed on the six-pointed star not far away.
Suddenly, McCroft spoke.
"Does this sealing ritual require the Grim Reaper?"
"What?" Locke was stunned.
Mycroft raised his hand and pointed at a grim reaper near the six-pointed star.
Most of the Grim Reaper was holding the demon in its hands. So the existence of the Grim Reaper is still quite conspicuous. It's just that now the Grim Reaper is on their side, so no one is surprised.
But then, Locke's face turned pale, and he muttered.
"The ability of the Malbus is to shapeshift."
Mycroft frowned instantly.
Locke quickly ran out of the bridge and shouted to the people around him, pointing to the Grim Reaper not far away.
"There's something wrong with that Grim Reaper!!"
His voice was deliberately amplified by the magic power, so it naturally attracted the attention of the people around him.
The eyes shifted to the Grim Reaper.
At the same time, the Grim Reaper began to move.
He actually raised the scythe in his hand and slashed at the chains bound to the six-pointed star!
Some of the rest of the Reaper reacted and tried to stop it, but it was too late.
"Boom!"
The sound of metal clashing echoed through the silent square.
Time, as if standing still in this moment.
Everyone's breathing also stalled slightly.
The Grim Reaper's form began to change, turning into the half-lion man Marbus who had just been restrained.
And Marbus, who was clasped by the Grim Reaper, turned into a minotaur.
The scythe became the giant blade held by Malbus.
Under the gradually frozen eyes of the people, many cracks gradually appeared in the chains.
Although the chains extend from the gates of hell, they are in a sense the condensation of the magic of these magicians. And the ritual is not yet complete, and the chains are relatively fragile.
The Grim Reaper around them reacted, and all threw their chains around Malbus's body, binding his limbs and head.
Malbus was so powerful that even a dozen Grim Reapers' forces couldn't completely control him.
He raised the big sword in his hand with a hideous face, and the muscles all over his body bulged, because of the rupture of capillaries, a layer of blood-colored mist seemed to surround him.
The force even threw a Grim Reaper flying and slammed it into a building on one side.
The more powerful Grim Reaper have all gone to deal with Fufa, so none of the people who stay here are too strong.
Leo abandoned the ritual and raised his wand.
Black gravel swirled around him, rushing towards Marbus like a tidal wave.
Every piece of gravel shot into him like a bullet. Countless blood spilled on the ground, shooting him directly into a sieve.
But even so, he still struck the chain.
They saw cracks gradually appear where the chains had been cut, and then spread in all directions.
"Ping Pong!"
The chains are broken!
