The burly power armor stood on the battlefield, and there were traces of scorch on the twisted steel surface. The knight inside was dead. The body was slumped on the ground, supported by the metal bracket on the crotch, with the head hanging down, as if he was sleeping.
.
As for the soldiers under this knight, their torsos were completely torn apart under the bombardment of artillery fire, and they were scattered in pools of dried blood all over the battlefield.
The muzzle of the cannon in the distance was still roaring, with endless thunder and fire, and it was obviously bombarding the Imperial mortar position opposite the trench.
Of course, the Empire was also using mortars to fight back. However, due to the shorter range, the gunners had to rush into the Templars' fire range before they could hastily set up the cannons and fire. Therefore, the firepower was almost outnumbered by the Templars.
It's completely suppressed here.
If we really want to destroy this position, we have to charge and fight with bayonets.
So here comes the paradox of this world, the bayonet can really outperform the artillery.
The reason is also very simple. Traditional guns and weapons are designed based on the physique of ordinary humans.
The possibility of "body blocking bullets" or "shunpo dodging artillery" was not considered at all.
In the face of extraordinary beings with enhanced bodies, technological weapons must be modified accordingly to ensure their effectiveness, such as making ammunition shoot faster, or expanding the range of lethality, etc.
In either case, the costs of research and development and manufacturing will increase accordingly. In this regard, the Holy See has already had long-term research results, but currently due to the demon tide, the corresponding weapon production line has not been restored for the time being.
As long as those tricky things don't appear, Asker can still deal with the current heavy smoothbore mortar alone.
He took one last look at the distant position, and then...
Suddenly burst out!
Almost immediately, his speed reached the extreme, and even the people in the trenches who had been prepared for it could even see blurry figures that were almost elongated.
"Wow! Captain, you're so fast!" Mia exclaimed excitedly, "This speed... Paige, can you do it?"
Peggy also shook her head with longing. After being promoted to Level 10 Bloodline, her full speed is actually still above this. However, if she wants to reach full speed like a bullet just now, she is currently
But it can't be done.
That requires extremely superb explosive skills.
The Templars' position in the distance almost immediately noticed this uninvited guest. The two mortars nearby that had been prepared were rapidly turning their muzzles and adjusting their firing points.
Blow him up!
The gunfire roared out, and the land where the afterimage was was instantly blown away by the explosion, and thick black smoke rose.
However, the black smoke was split to both sides in an instant, like a speedboat crossing the sea. The figure rushed out of the black smoke and continued to speed up as if unscathed. In a few dozen seconds, it had covered a quarter of the distance.
.
The sound of artillery is still roaring, and more cannon muzzles are being lowered, aiming at the enemy approaching quickly in front. Obviously, compared to the imperial artillery in the distance who is constantly testing and attacking, this enemy who is rapidly shortening the distance is more powerful.
threatening.
At the same time, countless muzzles were set up on the bunker. Sniper rifles, automatic machine guns, and grenade launchers poured all kinds of ammunition towards the figures in the distance.
Saturation bombardment.
Under the barrage of death, the figure began to change directions with higher maneuverability. He first quickly turned to the right and ran forward, leaving most of the bullets behind him, and then suddenly turned 90 degrees to the left, ignoring inertia, and inserted diagonally into the second wave.
Barrage.
The direction of the cut happened to be the weak point of the entire barrage. Only a few bullets were fired at his body, and then he was accurately split open by the long sword.
The moment they saw this scene, most of the Templars' heads almost shut down.
To be honest, fast extraordinary beings are not scary, because no matter how fast they are, they cannot cover such a long distance in a short time, which will always give the Templars room to react and attack.
Unless it is the speed of light that cannot be seen by the naked eye, no matter how fast the speed is, it is useless. As long as you calculate the advance of the opponent's movement and then saturate the barrage fire coverage, you can usually kill the opponent on the spot.
However, the monster the Templars were facing at this time was not only a matter of speed, but what was even more perverted was the ability to stop and turn regardless of inertia. One second he was running to the right, and the next second he was running to the right.
Went to the left.
As a result, calculating his movement route and lead time became completely impossible.
This ability to ignore inertia and acceleration has a name in the Vatican's archives, called "Reflexive Bounce", and it is a sophisticated skill belonging to the Ilanian Assassin Organization.
Is this person an assassin in white?
No! That guy is... As the figure approached within 400 meters, the moment the Templars saw clearly the appearance of the visitor, the layers of fear in their hearts suddenly emerged from the deepest part of their memories like a nightmare.
It’s that Cang Qing Sword Master!!!!
"Chief has succeeded!" Seeing Aske successfully rush into the bunker, Nuremberg and Hans immediately stood up and pressed their swords, "Richard Turner Swordsmen Group!"
"Here!" the swordsmen shouted in unison.
"Charge with me!"
The sound of swords being drawn neatly sounded, and the swordsmen collectively jumped out of the trenches and joined the second wave of charging troops.
"Let's get ready too." Sheila turned her head and added the lightening technique to Nora, Medea and herself.
The tactics everyone decided on at the beginning were: Asker was the first to rush into the position, destroying the artillery and confusing the line of sight; the second wave of the Richard Turner Swordsmen rushed out of the trenches. Since they were all high-level physics-based extraordinary people, they could not deal with them.
Ordinary bullets also have a minimum resistance.
After the swordsmen rushed through half the field and the Templars had no time to continue blocking the passage, the girls launched the attack at the end and joined the battlefield as the final move.
At this time, the swordsmen had already rushed out of the trenches, while the Templars in the distance were caught in the chaos of the surprise attack.
Several Templars waved their swords and tried to get close, but were swept away by spears. More Templars squeezed the triggers, and the muzzles of their guns chased Asker around while firing.
In the words of players, it’s called “you don’t know who you’re targeting after firing a box of bullets.”
Asker's speed is as fast as lightning, and he is as graceful as a giant. Sometimes he flies between the Templars, making it impossible for their guns to lock onto his body. Sometimes he quickly approaches the heavy mortar next to the bunker, with just one sword strike.
He cut off the barrels cleanly, as if the barrels were made of tofu.
Some of the Templar Knights finally noticed the swordsmen rushing from a distance. As soon as the sniper rifle muzzle was turned, the forearm holding the gun disappeared... The "Blue Sword" who was killing everyone in the position
"Holy", he did not relax in scanning the whole audience. Once someone raised the muzzle of the gun and aimed into the distance, he would seize the critical opportunity and shoot, accurately breaking their arms. No matter the angle or the timing, he controlled it amazingly.
Point out.
In this way, Asker single-handedly destroyed all the mortars in the position and held back most of the Templars for nearly two minutes.
As the Richard Turner Swordsmen arrived at the position, the war situation began to slide in the predetermined direction.
