Don't Mess with That Dragon-Chapter 692 - 080 Artillery Shelling

"Charge, kill!"

Accompanied by the overwhelming roar that swept toward the heavens, the immense murderous aura spread like a tsunami, with waves of black Fighting Qi surging into the sky, seemingly sweeping away the clouds.

In front of the great army were countless Gun Shield Soldiers in full black armor.

With perfect coordination and synchronized breaths, they formed an overwhelming force, steadily advancing towards the Royal City.

It felt as though the very sky itself, rolling with dark clouds, was pressing down at this moment!

And at this moment, the cavalry army at the rear remained stationary.

The fearsome Heavy Armor Cavalry, with Magic Runes lighting up on their black armor, had the Knights' Fighting Qi not only connected with their fully armored horses but also combined the power of the entire cavalry, gathering momentum to unleash a formidable aura.

As if waiting for a command, they poised to flood forth like a bursting dam, destroying everything in front of them.

Stationed outside the Frandy Duke's City,

the Dragon Nest Legion, which had waited for seven days, finally revealed its claws.

And at this moment,

facing the terrifying Dragon's Nest Army below the city, the soldiers on the walls felt their spirits shaken, as though no wall could protect them.

The Dragon's Nest Army, after deploying and sweeping through the southern Frandi Duchy, had accumulated a fierce aura.

Under the Extraordinary cultivation method founded by Austin, the Dragon's Nest Army extended this formidable presence a hundredfold.

Such overwhelming might, how could the Imperial Guard, stationed in the Royal City for centuries without war and more for the nobility's prestige, withstand it?

Gulu!

They're coming! They're coming!

It's finally starting!

May the dominion bless us!

On the walls, looking at the dense army below, a soldier couldn't help but grip his spear, his legs trembling, feeling a boulder pressing on his chest, suffocating him.

Even earlier, there was word in the army that the forces below had swept through all the hells of southern Frandi Duchy in half a month.

Even the defensive lines arranged by General Nonica Bro in the south had all collapsed within half a day; how could they feel at ease?

In these seven days,

every soldier in the Royal City was on edge, filled with fear.

Before the fight even began,

the morale was already reduced by thirty percent!

"Draw bows, nock arrows!"

"Don't be afraid, they are only a group of lowly Beastmen. Our Royal City's defense, fortified with all of Frandi Duchy's might, will never fall to these savages!"

"Long live Frandi!"

With the encouraging orders from commanding officers on the walls, the soldiers slightly behind began drawing bows and nocking arrows.

The arrow towers around the walls also drew bows, aiming below.

Rows of Heavy Crossbows were loaded, accompanied by the tension of cranking sounds, magical pattern lights flickering faintly on the crossbow bolts, creating a hair-raising feeling.

Although intimidated by the Dragon's Nest Army,

the defenders on the walls continued to prepare quietly.

Holding their breath,

with heavy hearts,

they waited for the Dragon's Nest Legion to enter a certain range, intending to make the vanguard pay a heavy price!

Relying on the city's high defenses, the defending side had the upper hand.

Perhaps,

with the Royal City's defenses, they might repel this army, maybe forcing them to retreat due to heavy casualties. They were confident about the Magic Array's defense on the city walls.

The soldiers on the walls waited silently in dead silence.

The pressure,

overwhelming.

Just as the Dragon's Nest Army's Gun Shield Soldier units were about to enter the magic heavy crossbow range, unexpectedly,

the army in front suddenly halted. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Without any chaos,

they stopped midway, raising their shields.

On the Royal City's walls, the defending soldiers looked at each other,

what were those Beastmen doing?

The doubt in their hearts didn't last long.

Soon,

they understood.

"Adjust the shooting parameters, fire!"

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!!!

From behind the Dragon's Nest Army, at the command of a Banner Officer, rows of Alchemy Cannons erupted with endless fury, the scorching cannonballs streaking through the sky like a shower of meteors, crashing onto the city walls!

Buzz!

Just as the shells were about to fall over the Royal City, they suddenly collided with an invisible wall, radiating blue light, a massive invisible Protection Shield enveloping the Royal City, repelling the shells.

Crash, crash...

Relentless explosions, shells blooming like tens or hundreds of fireworks above the Royal City, the brilliant light illuminating the high sky, the bursting flames forming a continuous Flame Storm.

Watching the burst above, repelled by the blue shield, the soldiers on the walls had drops of cold sweat on their foreheads.

If not for this Magic Protection Shield, just this wave would have turned the entire wall into a sea of fire!

Though relieved,

their confidence grew stronger,

after all, these attacks turning the sky into a sea of fire were ineffective against the blue barrier, merely causing small ripples on it!

"Hooray!"

"Long live Frandi!"

With one shout, a resounding cheer erupted on the walls.

Morale soared!

...

From the army's rear, at the command center.

"Why are they celebrating?"

A Beastman advisor put down his telescope, asking his colleague.

"Not sure, maybe they think our test shots were our strongest attack..."

Another conjectured uncertainly.

That's a possibility,

after all, during the seven-day siege, the Dragon's Nest Army hadn't wasted many Alchemy Cannonballs on the walls, and the earlier barrage was unprecedentedly "strong."

Misunderstandings are understandable.

At this moment,

everyone raised their telescopes again, gazing at the distant walls.

And now,

behind the Dragon's Nest Legion, the Alchemy Cannons that had adjusted their firing parameters were all loaded, with barrels aimed at the Royal City.

"Rapid fire, attack!"

The Banner Officer's signal lowered again,

at this moment,

positioned behind the Dragon's Nest Army in neat rows, the Alchemy Cannons unleashed their restrained wrath!
