Chapter 343 Bombing
Galahad looked up blankly, motionless.
After an unknown amount of time, the sun shone on his face again.
Only then did he roll his eyes stiffly and his stiff neck slowly turned.
The airship named Sky Curtain Beast left its head.
Whether it was the falling sky or the monster in the clouds that chose to eat people, they were all just his imagination. The airship in the sky was just passing through the clouds and passing over his head.
It had never cared about the ants on the ground, but just by seeing its huge figure, Galahad almost lost control and fell into madness.
What kind of existence is this? Galahad suddenly thought that he had seen the evil god, but the evil god... Galahad recalled the moment when the sky collapsed just now. Is the evil god really so terrifying?
There was now a huge opening in the originally thick clouds, through which the sunlight shone, falling on Galahad's face.
He stood up in confusion, only to find that he had collapsed on the ground without knowing when.
Fortunately, nothing more embarrassing happened. He stood up awkwardly and brushed the dirt off his body.
At this time, the huge airship in the sky moved a little further away, and Galahad was able to get a glimpse of its entire appearance.
It was a huge oval-shaped creature, somewhat like an elongated egg, with four ring-shaped tail fins at the tail and several propellers on both sides.
Below is a cabin. Compared with the entire airship, the size of this cabin is insignificant. The personnel and weapons are placed inside it.
The front of the airship is painted with a pair of fierce eyes and ferocious sharp teeth.
It was as if the entire airship was a shark that was ready to bite anyone. Anyone who saw it for the first time could feel its terrifying nature.
Such a terrifying monster, such a huge beast, it seems like an evil god flying in the sky. "It's amazing!" Zeus couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Sure enough, this kind of paint is what airships should use. This is really cool. I think it will be very effective in bombing."
Galahad turned his head in surprise. Sitting next to him was Count Hughes, who was looking at the airship excitedly.
Wouldn't he feel fear? No matter how huge the evil god is, it wouldn't be this terrifying, right? If something like this passed over his head, he wouldn't feel... Galahad shook his head. Forget it. After all, that was Count Hughes, a figure who could be compared with his lord. Perhaps in their eyes, even a weird and terrifying aerial monster was just a chess piece in their hands.
He should check out other people’s reactions like “How cute!”
Galahad opened his eyes wide and turned to look. It was a group of banshees - after staying in Castel for a few days, he finally accepted the existence of these extraordinary creatures.
"Round and fat, like a stupid shark!"
"I like to sleep with a shark in my arms, one in each hand. Their scales are so rustling and so comfortable to rub against!"
"Cute, I want to keep it."
No, I didn’t really accept it.
Galahad's face twitched and he turned his gaze away from the Banshee. These extraordinary creatures were inhuman monsters after all, so it was normal for them to have different thoughts from ordinary people. He couldn't think about the details of their conversation anymore, or he would go crazy.
Let's look at the islanders, the mortals. Galahad has never felt that mortals are so important. These weak creatures may not have any fighting ability, but at least they can help him stabilize his state and avoid losing control. "How much explosives can such a large airship hold? What a huge fire it can blast out!"
"If you can't defeat the enemy, it's because of insufficient firepower. Insufficient firepower means insufficient equivalent. If the equivalent is not enough, we must increase it. The equivalent is never enough!"
"Equivalent is truth, tonnage is justice. Those cowards always talk about 'precision strikes' - oh, they don't understand art at all."
"It's so powerful, so powerful, so powerful!!"
Galahad's eyes showed confusion. He found it difficult to tell whether what he heard were the madman's mumblings or the blasphemous words of the heretics. Why did he understand every word, but when put together they became an incomprehensible sentence?
Damn, am I crazy? But before his self-doubt could begin to affect his cognition, he heard the words of Count Hughes beside him.
"Okay, the exercise officially begins!" Hughes stood on the chair excitedly and shouted loudly: "Hurry up and drop the bombs!"
bomb?
Does it mean to drop the projectile?
Well, dropping stones directly from such a high place as the airship will definitely cause extremely huge damage. This should be the attack method of the airship. Although it looks a bit simple, it is actually quite effective.
Even a giant catapult made of large amounts of wood could not throw stones to the height of the Sky Curtain Beast, and the stones used were actually only the size of wheels.
Even this kind of stone can cause extremely huge damage to the solid city walls and gates. Today, the behemoth can carry even larger stones and drop them from high altitudes. The damage caused can completely destroy the tallest city walls.
As if to verify Galahad's thoughts, a small black dot fell from the sky. Its size was too small compared to the airship. If Galahad was not a superhuman, he would not have been able to see it.
But at this height, the power of the throw is definitely not small.
Dropping bombs? I have made note of this method of attack. Airships are indeed weapons that can change the battlefield. I have to tell His Highness about this. As his mind wandered, Galahad's gaze gradually became less focused until scarlet flowers bloomed on the ground.
"Varied"
He was so horrified that he could not speak. Huge flames burst out from the coast and in front of his eyes. The deafening roar took a while to reach his ears, and then a strong wind blew dust into his open mouth.
What was that? It was like the fire from the muzzle of a musket when it was fired, or like the eruption of a volcano. In an instant, the fire was orange with black edges, and the heat could be felt from thousands of meters away.
“This, this, this”
Is this what bombing is? Is this what dropping bombs are? It turns out that what is dropped are not rough boulders, but destruction and death.
Why did I have the ridiculous idea of comparing it to a catapult? It would be used to destroy the city wall?
No, it would blow the entire city into hell along with its ridiculous walls.
There is no need to tell His Highness that facing such an enemy, what Blood Harbor needs to do is not to defend, but to pray.
Pray that you are weak enough not to be noticed by the giant beast in the sky.
Galahad's back was covered in cold sweat.
Today seemed to be the longest day. He felt as if he had been here for a century. Now he was weak all over and just wanted to stay away from these horrible monsters.
At this moment, a sentence rang in his ears.
"Bomb calibration completed, exercise begins."
