After the loud "boom", the area around Jerusalem fell into silence.
The few imperial garrison troops who were on the city wall just now, searching for the place where the boulder fell, have now completely disappeared.
They disappeared along with the huge gap that appeared in the city wall.
Along with it, the sounds of laughter from the city wall also disappeared.
At this moment, another [catapult] threw out another huge stone with a "whoosh".
Then came the second and the third.
Under the city, the guards of Holy Egypt just stared at the catapults that were shining with golden light.
"Is this a dream?"
"Did you all see that?"
A holy Egyptian guard blinked hard and frowned as he looked at the huge gap that appeared in the wall of Jerusalem.
He could even see the magical energy emanating faintly from the broken stone bricks.
Logically speaking, if even a strong man like Nan Tong who possesses the power of the Great Sun Magician cannot shake the city wall at all, let alone an ordinary catapult.
Those huge rocks couldn't even destroy the protective layer of the city wall. Just as the Hebrew general said, they would be crushed directly by the enchanted power of the city wall itself just by approaching the city wall.
But now, everyone can clearly see that when huge rocks fall on the city wall one after another, the protective layer enchanted by the city wall seems to have completely disappeared.
And just before, when Nan Tong's magic hit the city wall, they could still clearly see the powerful magic colliding with a certain "protective layer" of the city wall.
"What's going on?!"
"What on earth is going on?!"
As huge rocks fell one after another, the imperial garrison realized that the catapults known as "divine weapons" were not what they thought they were.
Although they look like ordinary boulders, the slight golden light emanating from them seems to indicate that they are not ordinary.
Rather, it is extremely dangerous.
"boom!"
Another huge rock fell and hit the city wall like a meteorite from the sky.
The bricks broke and debris flew everywhere.
He also smashed a huge magic longbow to pieces.
Moreover, not only that, the debris and dust that were raised were also filled with bursts of blood mist.
Inside, there were Imperial soldiers who had been crushed to pieces.
The imperial soldiers on the city wall were in a panic. They didn't understand why the Holy Egyptian [Catapults] could easily destroy their city walls.
Amid the flying rubble, the Hebrew general who had just been showing off by chopping the city wall with his sword stood still.
The mist in his hand also fell to the ground with a clang.
Under his feet were the fragments of the violently destroyed city wall that he was so proud of.
"impossible......"
"This... is the capital of the Hebrew Empire..."
"This is the capital where the Ultimate Mage sacrificed his life to extract his magic power and poured it all into the city walls..."
“Could this be the reason why the Holy Pharaoh dared to come to Jerusalem with only a few thousand people?”
"If so..."
"We were fooled!"
Before the general's trembling voice fell, the boulder came roaring towards them again.
The surface of the city wall that once mocked the enemy as "indestructible even with the power of God" was now denting and crumbling at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Inside the wall mixed with magic crystals, the originally flowing blue magic veins were flickering wildly, and then they suddenly dimmed and went out after twitching violently like a dying magician.
The archers and heralds on the watchtower tumbled down the stairs, and behind them, the entire tower was tilting.
A huge crescent-shaped gap had been smashed into the base wall.
The young soldier who mentioned the "weak siege equipment" was now trying in vain to scratch the sloping ground with his hands, his nails leaving bloody marks between the bricks.
But as the next boulder fell, he just screamed "Ah" and fell to the ground.
He fell heavily on the ground covered with sharp gravel, like a sandbag falling from a great height, with a dull sound. His limbs swayed weakly for a few times like a puppet, and he died completely.
"Return to your posts!"
"Protect the magic longbow with all your strength! Protect the magic longbow with all your strength!"
"All magicians and alchemists, aim at those boulders!"
The commander's roar at the top of his lungs was drowned out by the roar of the rain of stones.
He watched helplessly as the defense system he was so proud of crumbled like a sand castle washed away by the waves.
Of course, some ultimate magicians and alchemists also heard the general's order, and they quickly exerted all their strength to attack the boulder in the sky.
"Aim for those boulders!"
"Don't let them fall again!"
The people on the city wall who claimed to be the "imperial elite" began to scream like refugees, and they did not look like the imperial elite at all.
There was even a Hebrew soldier whose half body was smashed into pieces, but he still managed to crawl a few times in the gap.
After more than ten seconds, he finally stopped breathing.
There were also some soldiers who were injured by the rubble and were dying. They just lay on the ground with feces and urine flowing everywhere.
The Hebrew garrison nearby saw all of this.
They looked terrified and gasped helplessly.
"How could this happen? How could this happen!"
"This is horrible, this is horrible!"
"We will die too, in such a painful way!"
At this moment, the imperial soldier who had been looking at the boulder with a calm expression patted the heads of the garrison soldiers hard.
“This is war.”
"You elites of the empire, has no one ever taught you this?"
Obviously, those "imperial elites" who had never participated in any battles, had strong bodies and were proficient in combat skills, began to feel fear when they looked at those corpses.
And when they turned around, all they saw was an Imperial soldier wearing different armor from theirs.
He was one of the Imperial soldiers who survived the Battle of Sun City.
"It's you?!"
"Get lost! What qualifications do you have to tell us what to do?"
"Just a deserter, get out of here!"
Their emotions were very excited, but the Hebrew soldier said nothing more.
He just adjusted his helmet, looked around, and immediately chose to leave the city wall.
"Deserter! Deserter!"
"The shame of the empire!"
The "imperial elites" on the city wall were still cursing, and the next second, a huge rock fell with a "bang" where they were standing.
"The empire is about to fall."
And the Hebrew soldier just said it calmly.
