Chapter 21 The setting sun is like blood

"put!"

Following the officer's roar, the artillery in Jiansong City erupted with a burst of bright fire, short blazing tongues of flame and sweet sound echoed in the back hill, and then the cannonballs fell into the steel forest outside the city.

The explosion kicked up dust several meters high, and the iron pieces flew and fell on the demon statues on the side, making a continuous clanking sound, and then the dust settled. A large number of demon statues still pushed forward, and the jets on their shoulders were

Rays of dark blue light were emitted, sweeping across the city wall, leaving a messy black mark. If any soldiers touched these lights, they would scream, and then the armor on their bodies would melt and turn into a ball of twisted flames.

"grass!"

Seeing this scene, the general Seger in the rear couldn't help but clenched his hands and smashed them on the wall in front of him. Stones flew and a trace of blood appeared on his hands.

"What was the result of the artillery bombardment?"

"Reporting to the commander, 30 steel golems have been defeated so far, and there are more than 60 golems under the city."

As these golems approached, the artillery units on standby at the rear of Jiansong City began to fire. These artillery pieces previously obtained when quelling the west wind were of different ages and required different sizes of shells. It was very inconvenient to supply them. Today's ammunition is not

abundant.

On the river beach and hillside outside Jiansong City, gray and silver demon statues are constantly advancing. If they don't hit these demon statues and hit the open space on the side, they will not be able to cause substantial damage to these demon statues.

Fortunately, these steel golems are only the fringe legions of Frost Rose's golem army. They are of average strength and can only be destroyed by artillery. Today, the most elite golem legions of Frost Rose and the Alliance are still facing off at the green border to guard against the sudden attack of this huge empire.

attack.

Even so, it is very difficult for Clancia to resist such old model golems now. Unlike those low-level transcendent beings with mortal bodies, golems generally have a solid defensive shell, which makes it difficult for ordinary people to resist.

Many attacks failed, and human sea tactics could not easily work on these golem legions.

Rocks flew on the city wall, and the dull crashing sound below was like the heartbeat of a giant dragon, making the ground and houses tremble. The original residents in the city fled to the back and out of the city in panic.

Sage slowly closed his eyes, then opened them again.

"Count the number of golems outside the wall, and order the catastrophe knights in the city to prepare the West Wind Rainbow Spear and be on standby at any time."

"Yes, General!" The knight on the side saluted, and then put on a full-coverage white helmet. The metal on the edge was worn away, revealing a copper-like luster.

The members of the Catastrophe Knights of Cranthia all came from the great battle in the Windswept Wilderness. That night, thunder shocked the world, and the stars came to the world. Many soldiers present broke through one after another. Almost all of them advanced to extraordinary beings. After these years,

Continuing to fight and hone, these battle-hardened warriors are also the most elite and proud legion of Crancia.

Among them, the most powerful group of people were selected into the Catastrophe Knights, and each member is a Sequence 5 existence.

They wore armor with white background and red edges, and cloaks with gold fringes on red background. The red metal on the edge of their armor was like the setting sun, weather-beaten and extremely tough.

The warriors who survived the catastrophe are now officially known as the Knights of the Catastrophe, and the West Wind Rainbow Spear in their hands is extremely heavy. It is a standard gold-level creation, nearly 5 meters long, and has extremely strong penetration and gouge capabilities.

These spears come from the collection of the West Wind Royal Family, and are usually only given as prizes to those West Wind Knights with outstanding military exploits. Now after the establishment of Crancia, this batch of heritage has been assembled for the country's most elite legions.

West Wind once founded its country on horseback, and knights were naturally its most typical symbol. Now, Crancia, which has inherited West Wind's land, has brand-new ideas, but some of its past traditions have also been passed down along with history and culture.

The attack outside the city wall continued. As the steel golem approached, a sound like a pile driver came from the wall, and the violent vibrations made people want to vomit blood.

The artillery behind Jiansong City is still spitting out tongues of fire, but as the number of shells decreases, the firepower gradually weakens.

Seg walked down the city tower and came to the central street behind the city gate. At this time, 30 catastrophe knights were ready to go. They were covered in red metal armor. Only the T-shaped gap on their faces could see the outside world. The cylinders they held in their hands

The appearance of the knight's lance is bronze, with exquisite carvings on it, emitting a thin halo like a rainbow under the sunlight.

Although there are only 30 people, this is also one-tenth of the strength of the Crancia Catastrophe Knights. The remaining members are scattered in the royal capital and various provinces. They are the elite of the army and rely on the special characteristics of the Catastrophe Knights in War Sequence 5.

Ability to resonate magic with companions and exert an ability that is close to Sequence 6 for a short period of time.

"Sir General."

An attendant carried a heavy West Wind Rainbow Spear. Sage picked it up casually, got on his horse, and then put the gun butt on the ground, digging out a small dull hole. Although this West Wind Rainbow Spear is powerful, it needs to be held for a long time.

, which is a huge pressure on the war horse under the crotch.

He looked at the silent and powerful warriors in front of him. Although they were wearing helmets, their familiar postures and figures made him easily recognize each of their names.

These people are the early elites who followed the Crancia Uprising. They once had nearly 100,000 comrades, and not many of them are still alive today. But there is no doubt that these living people are elites, and they are also the backbone and skeleton of the army. If

It wasn't because of the Frost Rose invasion, he didn't want these people to continue to be lost on the battlefield.

But, you have no choice, right?

Peace is never shouted with slogans and diplomacy, but is truly achieved with swords and guns.

"Fighters! Although we are not related by blood, we still call each other brothers, just because we believe in the same ideal and walk on the same path."

"Now, it's time to verify the ideal. Are you willing to follow me and use iron and blood to forge the cornerstone of this dream?"

"Yes!" A dull voice came from underneath the armor.

"Okay! Raise your gun and charge with me!"

The steel golem outside the city used a beam of blue light to sweep across the crenellations on the city wall, moving up the gentle hillside, and then began to hit the city wall with a heavy hammer. Pieces of boulders peeled off and collapsed, and gaps began to appear in the city wall built against the mountain.

Just outside the city, the mages thought they were about to capture the city and when the battle was over, the city gate suddenly opened.

The long roller shutters pulled up the layers of iron fences, and then the heavy wooden doors nailed with steel were pushed open.

Knights wearing fiery red cloaks and feathers filed out one after another, holding bronze cylindrical lances. As they charged and accelerated, the cloaks billowed in the wind like flames, and the carvings on the lances also flowed.

The golden light and the final dazzling light made the entire lance look like red-hot iron.

The strong wind howled, the horses neighed, and the setting sun was like blood.
