The Kingdom's army suffered a heavy blow in an instant, and the damage was probably several times greater than the previous two cannons combined. The Kingdom's army, which was greatly frustrated for a moment, retreated.
"Hoo~"
The city defense commander of Andalu City breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why they ran away just now was because the shells would fly past the city gate, that is, under their feet. Although they should not be affected, they still did not have the courage to face this directly.
"Report this tentatively good news to your lord, so that we can take a breath." He ordered the messenger.
"It would be great if the enemy could retreat out of fear," the adjutant said.
"Yes, it would be great if that were the case."
It is difficult to confirm the enemy's specific casualties by visual inspection alone, but by now, the cumulative casualties of the Royal Army should be close to 20,000, of which most of the results were from the one shot just now, which probably killed 10,000 people. 20,000 is for 180,000,
The losses did not seem to be large, but at this time the Royal Army had lost quite a lot of armored soldiers, paladins, heavily armed soldiers and artillery. Most of the 180,000 people were ordinary soldiers with a short training period, and there were many pre-war signs to make up the numbers.
According to Lanchester's law, the combat effectiveness of a strong militia will be greatly reduced if it is not reorganized.
"How many rounds are left in the Demon Cannon?"
"There is still one shot that can be fired immediately, but because all the magic casters of our army have been sent to the city wall, even with the personal assistance of Elulu Ann Patty Freed and some people from the Fairy Temple,
After that, it will take six hours to attack again."
"Really, but the enemy has indeed retreated. Let's use this period of time to mobilize as many people as possible to repair the city wall. It's up to you. Try to avoid using magic as much as possible. Don't let the magic casters consume too much magic power." The city defense commander sat down.
He waved his hand.
The adjutant resigned.
"Thank you for your hard work." He said to Irushina who was standing outside the door, looking at the Royal Army in the night.
Originally, the Imperial Army here did not have an air force and could not easily shoot down the Imperial Army's angels and tranquility angels from the air overlooking the battlefield.
Thanks to Irushina's continuous stabbing of light guns into the air, she shot down all the angels who were conducting high-altitude reconnaissance.
Because the Angel of Tranquility, the most difficult one to deal with, was also defeated, the Temple Army, which judged that it was pointless to add more angels, did not continue to summon them. If the enemy discovered the direction in which the Demon cannon fired, then this trick would not work.
"Oracle, I may not be able to join your battle, but I have been given the power to defeat divine enemies." Illushina said lightly.
"Divine enemies, do you mean angels?"
Illushina shook her head: "Everything related to angels."
"Is that so? The martial arts shot into the air just now consumed a lot of money, right? You might as well go back to the temple to recover. At least you should recharge your batteries and prepare for the next battle. What if your opponent is the temple? For us, too
It helped a lot.”
"Be careful." Ilushina put her spear and shield on her back, turned around and walked towards the stairs of the tower, and turned back before going down the stairs. "According to the guess of my husband...the head of the Temple of Garein, we
The enemy we face has not yet begun to take serious action. Our enemies may not only be the armies of the kingdom and temple."
"Have you already given this to the lord? There are traces of the Theocracy's Six-Colored Scripture Troops, right? Thank you for your warning."
"No? It's more than that." Illushina shook her head, her eyes still looking in the direction of the Royal Army's camp, "Sir, what do you think of the third attack of the Demon Cannon just now? "
"I think the effectiveness of the Demon cannon has been fully utilized this time." the city defense commander replied.
Can the enemy's assault vehicles, elite troops, and artillery groups be within the striking range of one cannon? I'm afraid there won't be a second chance.
"However, not all those involved in the explosion died." Illushina said.
"Is this weird?"
The explosion will produce a storm. Because of the storm, the light explosion will cause the seniors to be swept away and thrown away. There may be many survivors who escape, but this is an allowable error, right?
Illushina continued to shake her head: "It was a triangular area in the explosion - one person blocked it and protected some people? The attack of the Demon cannon was blocked by one person."
"What?! Is he the holder of the four secret treasures of the kingdom? Or is he a descendant of the 'Thirteen Heroes'?"
It is said that since the founding of the kingdom, four secret treasures belonging to a set of warrior equipment have been passed down. When combined with matching warriors, even demons can be killed; and what if they are the descendants of the legendary "Thirteen Heroes" who ended the chaos of demons?
If he inherits his bloodline, talents and equipment, it is not impossible to block the attack of Demon Cannon.
"Not sure? But Graeme, who is the trump card, may not be an opponent together. What if that guy comes over in person? Leave it to me to deal with it. Is it necessary to report this matter to the Imperial City immediately? Maybe the support of the Dragon Knight is needed... No,
Maybe something more advanced... This is not something I should talk about, but it is necessary to report it, right?"
Illushina looked back at the city defense commander who stood up.
He looked around and saw that there was no one else he could send: "I will personally report to the lord and apply for communications from the imperial capital." With that, he strode away from here.
Midori No. 91380, who was sitting on the roof of the city tower watching everything and listening to everything. After listening to the following words, she picked up the telescope again and looked at the location of the light explosion that was set off by the previous burst from the city gate.
After a while, she disappeared and groped towards the enemy's formation.
If the explosion was prevented, there should be an obvious triangular area that was not impacted.
Her strength is not very good. She can be a priest in the Fairy Temple and treat ordinary people with minor injuries. She can't do more. But it is still possible to confirm this. She and the members of the Fairy Temple absorbed from the outside world are okay.
With different reporting superiors, separate confirmation is necessary.

Imperial Capital, Owen Tower, Tower of Mysteries, top floor——
Fluder was holding a magic tool that looked like a crystal ball, looking at the scene overlooking Andalu, but after all, it was only a very rough scene, and he could only take an overview. He was slightly relieved that he didn't have to take action himself.
Luna was sitting not far away, curled up on the sofa, flipping through the research materials she had discussed with Fluder these days. Based on the performance of the Demon Cannon, the "Star Destroyer Cannon" at home might need to be modified.
After a while, almost at the same time, Luna frowned and touched her forehead to receive the message. The same thing happened to Fluder. Then, they both stood up.
Luna: "Are you okay? Then you have to lock the door when you go out."
