Following Dorothy's words, Nephnis used the corpse ring that she had been given in advance to control the two corpses and quickly rushed to the cannon platform, and then observed the thick black and huge cannon from a close distance. Then, through Nephnis's sight, Dorothy could clearly see the description of Farajo on it. Judging from the model, it seemed to be a new type of cannon developed by Farajo in recent years. During the Civil War of Addus, the Baruch Dynasty had purchased a large amount of arms from the countries on the main continent, and this cannon was obviously one of them.
With the help of Nefernis's vision, Dorothy quickly checked the situation of the cannon and quickly understood the specific operation method. Then she commanded Nefernis to control the two corpse soldiers to cooperate with her to turn the angle of the cannon towards the desert. Then two shots were fired. According to the impact point in the distance, Dorothy quickly calculated the speed of the shells, the power of the shells and the killing range, and clarified many parameters of the cannon.
"Miss Dorothy, what do you want me to do with the cannon?"
Standing next to the cannon, Nephnis, who had just fired a cannonball, asked Dorothy with a confused look on her face. At this moment, she was very curious about why she was inexplicably called here to fire the cannon. Dorothy herself clearly had a powerful corpse puppet ability, and it was faster and more convenient to use the cannon, so why didn't she come in person?
"Don't worry about this, Senior Neveu, just do whatever I say.
"Wait a moment, I'll report the firing parameters to you. Adjust them one by one. Once all the adjustments are made, just fire. Don't worry about anything else. Do you understand?"
"oh…"
Dorothy responded to Nefernis's words seriously. Although Nefernis still had a confused look on her face, she still nodded affirmatively.
After explaining everything to Nefernis, Dorothy shifted her attention to the palace in the distance. At this time, a large number of Savior armed forces gathered in the palace hall. They looked at the embarrassed Mukhtar with surprise, but under Mukhtar's serious expression, no one dared to say or ask anything.
"How's it going? Can you open this thing?"
In the hall, Mukhtar looked at the Savior militants who were busy and breathless in front of a pile of huge metal balls, and those militants turned their heads and said helplessly.
"Hoo...Hoo...No, Mr. Mukhtar, this pile of iron lumps is too tightly stuck together and can't be opened. Moreover, any iron tools can be sucked into it. It's getting bigger and bigger. If we want to open it, we can only find explosives to blow it up..."
"Then hurry up and find it! Don't keep me waiting here!"
“Yes, yes!!”
Following Mukhtar's words, several Savior militants immediately ran out to look for explosives. Then Mukhtar shifted his attention to the huge iron ball in the hall in front of him. After a long period of metal absorption, the original metal protective shield had turned into a metal iron ball, which was twice as large as it was at the beginning. Most of the metal in the palace was absorbed, and the average thickness of the entire magnetic metal ball was almost half a meter.
"Humph, no matter how thick your shell is, I can definitely pry it open for you."
Looking at the metal ball in front of him, Mukhtar snorted coldly. At this time, inside the metal ball, Vanya, controlled by Dorothy, was talking to Shadi.
"What? You want me to freeze the surroundings?"
After hearing Vanya's words, the weak Sadie said in surprise, and Vanya nodded and spoke under Dorothy's control.
"Yeah, can you still use your abilities now? If you can, freeze all the metal around us, freeze the gaps between them with ice, and then put another layer of ice protection inside!"
"The protective layer of ice... cough... cough... I can no longer use my abilities like before. I can only try my best... but I don't think it can resist Mukhtar." Shadi said pessimistically, and Vanya continued to answer.
"It doesn't matter. This ice isn't used to defend against Mukhtar anyway, so let's hurry up. Time is running out. Start from this direction and get as much as we can..."
…
After finishing the matters at the palace, Dorothy turned her attention back to the artillery position. After calculating the time, she spoke to Nefernis in a serious tone.
"Okay, Senior Neveu, let's get started. I'll calculate the firing parameters, and you'll operate the cannon. I'll calculate one and you'll adjust one. Once you've chosen one, we'll fire it right away. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Nefernis, who was fully ready beside the artillery, spoke to Dorothy. Listening to Nefernis's words, Dorothy took a deep breath, then closed her eyes and began to calculate, calculating the shooting parameters that could deliver the artillery shells to the predetermined position.
Generally speaking, with Dorothy's computing power, it would be easy to calculate such parameters. However, at this moment, Dorothy found it extremely difficult to calculate them. This was because she herself made the calculations too difficult.
Dorothy used her mathematical knowledge to make a simple math problem extremely complicated.
By introducing all kinds of difficult problems into the calculation, by adding countless harsh conditions to her calculations, and by requiring extremely long and precise digits after the decimal point... Dorothy successfully turned the originally simple calculation of the shooting elements into a difficult problem that required extremely high computing power for several days.
To simplify things, due to Dorothy's deliberate design and strict requirements, the shooting parameters that were originally difficult to obtain became extremely difficult, to the point where it would take an ordinary person countless years to obtain them, and even Dorothy herself would have to use up almost all of her computing power to obtain them in a short period of time.
The reason why Dorothy did this was that she needed such high-intensity problem-solving and calculations to blur her consciousness to a certain extent, and to use the huge amount of calculations to concentrate all her energy on "solving the problem". When Dorothy put all her energy into solving the problem, the reason why she solved the problem would be ignored to a certain extent.
"Ruler...386...Angle...467..."
The answer to the difficult question, he murmured in his heart. As for the artillery, Nefernis quickly adjusted the firing parameters of the artillery according to the data Dorothy said. Gradually, the black muzzle that was originally used to defend Addis gradually turned under Nefernis' adjustment and pointed to the palace of Addis in the distance.
At this point, Nephnis still didn't know who she was targeting with the cannon.
"boom!!"
After all the parameters were adjusted, Nephnis pulled the rope and fired the cannon. Amidst the huge roar, the cannonball shot out from the flames at the muzzle and flew towards the distant palace.
After a split second of flight, the cannonball fell from the sky over the palace. At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck from the sky, helping the cannonball to blast through a roof and land in a luxurious hall of the palace.
Inside the hall, Mukhtar and a group of Savior armed men were looking at the roof that was split by lightning. Before they could catch the high-speed falling shells, their sight was covered by the flames that filled their entire field of vision.
Countless bodies, including Mukhtar's, were shattered in the impact and flames. Mukhtar's horrified soul was finally unable to bear the burden and shattered along with his own body.
