Chapter 134: The Last Bet
The mountain trail north of Restenburg has disappeared, or perhaps another way would better describe what just happened - the mountain is gone......
The mountain road, which originally only allowed a few hundred people to walk side by side, has been expanded three or four times, and the steep cliffs on both sides of the road seem to have been cut in half by something invisible, forming two smooth and flat arcs, and the cliffs on both sides are crystal clear, as if covered with a layer of crystal on the brown-black rock.

The hard rocky pavement was gone, replaced by a large circular pit with a diameter of about six or seven hundred meters, and the bottom of the pit was bubbling with streams of clear water......
Jace blinked, and turned his head to look at Feng Kan who was there with some confusion.
"Don't look at me, I didn't expect this, it's also a coincidence, I guess the pit is just above the water veins under the ground. ”
The reason why Reston Fort does not have a moat is that the ground is too hard, and no one can dig a river channel on such a hard ground, and secondly, because there is no suitable water source nearby to lead here, but the absence of water on the ground does not mean that there is no water source underground, the reason why Reston Fort can accommodate so many soldiers is because there are countless underground rivers intertwined like spider webs underground, some of these rivers are smooth and soothing, some are turbulent and rushing, but whether it is a gentle stream or a turbulent rapid, these rivers have all flowed quietly underground for thousands of years, and today, the explosion caused by the fierce collision between the dragon slash and the angel's sigh has opened a small opening above them.
The power of the "Angel's Sigh" is comparable to that of a small "A? E", and the power of the dragon slash is not far behind, and the destructive power generated by these two forces to hedge ...... If this had been a collision on the plains, the damage would have been much more than that, right?
"Well~~ Luck is really good, it seems that if you want to go from Volken to Reston Fort in the future, you will have to prepare a boat. Feng Kanle looked at the results he had caused, originally he only used the Dragon Slash to fight against the angel's sigh when his brain was hot, this was no way, in order to ensure that the Reston Canyon was not destroyed by his own oolong, he had endured it for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that the situation was too dangerous this time, he would never use such a large-scale and high-powered magic as the Dragon Slash.
However, it seems that after this big explosion, although the natural danger of Reston Canyon has disappeared, there is a more convenient defensive terrain.
A large lake facing cliffs on both sides, nearly a kilometer in diameter and six or seven hundred meters deep, is better than the narrow valley and suitable for blocking the enemy's footsteps.
"Or ...... How about we get a ferry to collect money?"
“......”
As soon as I came back to hear this, all the people who stood up again but were still in shock were stupid.
"How's that? It's going to be very profitable," Feng Kan didn't realize it at all, and asked for the opinions of others excitedly.
Jace ignored Feng Kan's suggestion, and just stared at him with a strange expression.
"What?"
Being stared at like this, no matter how dull people are, will feel uncomfortable.
“...... You've never told me you're such a powerful magician. ”
"What? It's not like you haven't seen me fight, what's all the fuss about?" Feng Kan grinned, in the previous two days of fighting, he didn't use the fireball technique and ice archery technique less.
"No, it's different......" Jace said solemnly, shaking his head.
It is indeed different, no matter how large the caliber of the 88-mm rapid-fire gun is, can it be compared with the 800-mm "Gustav" train gun? Although they are both called "cannons." (The Gustav train gun, also known as the Dora cannon, was a super cannon used by Nazi Germany on the German-Soviet battlefield during World War II.) The barrel is 32 meters long, the total length of the gun in combat condition is 53 meters, the height is 12 meters, and the total weight is 1488 tons. The shells it uses are also horrifying, each armor-piercing shell weighs 7.1 tons, a high-explosive shell weighs 4.8 tons, and the propulsion fuel is between 1.8 tons and 2 tons. It is said that after the victory of the Allies, it took seven days and seven nights to melt down the captured super cannon. )
"It's too early for peace of mind. Lanchester said something suddenly and faintly.
Indeed, it was too early to reassure, for the newly formed lake held back the enemy from the ground, but could not hold off the attack from the air—Volcan's main formation, though disorganized by the explosion, was disorganized, and the force of the explosion did not inflict a devastating blow on them.
In other words, as long as there is enough cooldown, Angel's Sigh can still pose enough threat to Reston Castle.
"Or ...... Again?" Feng Kan scratched his head and took a pose to release the dragon slash.
When everyone heard him, they all took a step back and shook their heads like rattles.
No kidding, after the last big explosion, the strata of Reston Canyon have begun to be unstable, and who can guarantee that another dragon slash will not affect Reston Castle?
The problem now is that the dragon slash is not too powerful, but too powerful.
Feng Kan's copycat version of Dragon Slash couldn't be retracted as easily as Lena Inbus, after all, it was the first time he had used it.
...............................................................................................................
"How so?"
Count Shemoth looked at the appalling sight before him with a bloodless face, and his trembling lips squirmed in disbelief.
“...... Can anyone sue me why this is happening?"
The next moment, the Count's roar rang out in the middle of the formation.
"My lord, let's retreat. Among the silent crowd, only his personal adjutant had the courage to raise it.
"Retreat?" Shemos glared at his lieutenant with red eyes and a cannibalistic expression, "Why retreat?"
He had no way to retreat now, he didn't expect to have such a consequence, Restonburg's natural danger had escalated in his own offensive, and after today, if he wanted to attack Restonburg again, he would have to pass through the wide lake, and he would no longer be able to make a large-scale charge with infantry as in the past.
And this qiē was all caused by him, and the hope of victory was getting slimmer and slimmer, unless the army attacking Restonburg in the future could all put wings, the attack on the kingdom of St. Austin was just a joke of laughter.
In the distance, Count Shemos had already seen that the steel gate of Reston Fort had been opened, and countless soldiers of the Kingdom of St. Austin had rushed out of the steel castle, and the siege troops who had lost themselves under their own control were left with little left under the blow just now, and let the soldiers of St. Austin chop up watermelons and vegetables.
A huge catapult was slowly pushed out of Reston Castle and methodically formed a dense phalanx on the other side of the lake......
"My lord, the four 'Angel's Sigh' have all been launched just now, and now it's still in cooldown, we didn't bring other siege weapons this time, and we can't launch a counterattack against the opponent's catapult, my lord, let's retreat" The anxious voice of the adjutant beside him came to his ears, but Shemos didn't seem to be able to hear his voice anymore.
"Archers, archers, shoot me" Although some people gave the order to attack in a panic, it is known that no bow and arrow can effectively attack a target a kilometer away.
"What about the Channeling Warlock?"
In the panic, countless fireballs and lightning bolts shot towards the other side of the lake, where the water level was getting higher and higher, but none of them could fly across the wide lake—a kilometer range? That was not something that ordinary force warlocks could do.
"It's not over, it's not over yet," Count Shemos muttered, ignoring the increasingly uncontrollable crowd around him and looking directly at the enemy troops on the other side of the river.
In his clenched right fist, a strange red light was spilling from between his fingers......
...............................................................................................................
"Ready~~~ put"
"Boom"
"Whew~~~"
Countless skull-sized stones were projected by the catapult's thick and powerful arms towards the enemy positions on the opposite bank, and from the main Volcan side, the flying stones fell from the sky like scattered flowers from the sky.
This is a development that no one could have anticipated, and the side that can react and act first will be able to take the initiative, and it is clear that Restenburg has the upper hand in this regard.
There were already a lot of catapults prepared in the steel castle for defense, and it seemed that these catapults would not be of much use from the battle situation in the previous two days, but now it seems that it is a bit prescient to be able to prepare so many catapults.
Only I beat you, you can't beat me, this kind of fight is really smooth
After being suppressed and fought by the enemy for so long, all the soldiers of the St. Austan Kingdom held their breath in their hearts, and this moment was finally vented, and everyone bit their cheeks and puffed up their strength to smash baskets of big stones towards the opposite bank.
Although most of the stones fell into the lake with a crackle halfway through, a large number of them landed in the enemy phalanx on the opposite shore after completing their mission.
"Your Excellency, give the order."
Volcan's military formation was even more agitated in this situation where there was nothing to be done, although many guide warlocks intercepted a lot of falling rocks with guide spells, but they could not reverse this passive situation, and wave after wave of skull-sized stones fell like raindrops in the crowd, this situation is not something that humans can bear lightly in terms of lethality and deterrence.
"Order?" "Shemos looked ahead with a blank look in his eyes, muttering indifferently, "What order?"
"My lord, please cheer up, now that you can save most of your strength, we still have a chance," the adjutant hurriedly shouted when he saw that he had a reaction.
"Do we still have a chance?"
It is these soldiers under his command who do not have a chance, Count Shemos has no chance, and he has not grasped the last opportunity, he will become the biggest laughing stock in this war. violated the military order, insisted on going his own way, and buried the brigade on this short mountain road of a few kilometers, and then was attacked by the enemy's counterattack......
At this point, even exile is already a luxury, and his fertile fiefdom will definitely be cut by Yan zhòng, and in the end, he can only leave a dispensable title.
Seeing that Count Shemos was dumbfounded and did not react, the adjutant gritted his teeth, turned around and conveyed the order to retreat without authorization.
"I don't have a chance. But the Earl, who was good at roaring, ignored the lieutenant's overstepping of his authority, and allowed the people around him to retreat from his horse like a tide.
"I don't have a chance," his bloodshot eyes grew brighter as he looked at the light of hatred and disgust from Reston Castle, which stood like a giant on the other side.
"But at least I won't go alone"
The corners of Count Shemoth's mouth showed a vicious grudge full of resentment but a sad smile, and he stretched out his right fist in front of him with a strange red light.
When the "Lord" saw his ominous move, the few remaining personal guards around him shuddered.
"I want you to die with me~~~~~~~~~~~"
With a desperate and hysterical roar, Count Shemos shoved something in his hand into his mouth without hesitation.
Even if you die, you have to fight for the last chance for your family.
Count Shemos had one final gamble - his own life.
