The Holy See of Light is trying to capture this metal castle.

The number of troops mobilized has reached 100,000.

There are also a large number of magicians in the army, as well as warriors or adventurers from all over the place.

It was enough to show his determination to take down this metal castle.

Unfortunately, such a dense formation is a perfect place for artillery baptism.

Every time they advanced 50 meters, dozens of huge solid iron balls would hit the position. Although there was a 50% chance of missing the target, the rest would hit the inside of the square formation.

At least dozens of people died on the spot and hundreds were left with disabled limbs.

Although the number of casualties caused by an iron ball was not large compared to the entire army of the Holy See of Light.

But its ability to kill people without any pattern is indeed very terrifying.

Everyone in the square formation felt that their lives were in danger.

You may be taken away by the iron ball at any time.

This is simply a blessing from heaven. The lucky person who is chosen will go directly to heaven to see God.

At this moment, a burning resentment appeared on the face of the commander of the attacking side.

So he gave an order to everyone, saying: "These solid iron balls are not a big problem. The number of people injured each time is limited. Quickly send the magic square team up and let them use defensive magic."

Immediately at the front of the team was the phalanx of magicians.

The magicians raised their staffs.

Then a huge magic shield appeared before his eyes.

In the next round of artillery attack, the solid iron balls hit the magic shield directly.

A violent fluctuation ensued.

Boom! The solid ball smashed the magic shield into pieces.

With such a huge impact force, the entire shield could not be protected.

Immediately afterwards, four or five iron balls hit over, and the magic shield shattered more and more times. Finally, the last iron ball hit the magic shield and broke it.

But in less than a second, several more balls hit him.

The magician didn't have time to cast new shield magic.

More than a dozen people were taken away directly by the high-speed rotating iron ball.

Even the magic robes that they were so proud of could hardly protect them, and the first few people were torn into pieces.

The group of magicians at the back either had broken limbs or their limbs were bent.

Many people fell to the ground wailing.

In this round of artillery attack, although the number of iron balls dropped sharply to more than twenty, it also took away more than seventy magicians, and hundreds of magicians lost their combat effectiveness.

They desperately used recovery magic on themselves.

Unfortunately, they either had broken limbs or their wounds were too large to be completely healed with magic.

When the commander saw this scene, his brows furrowed even more tightly.

However, at this time they were only 200 meters away from the castle.

The castle before us is in danger.

The commander suddenly laughed: "Let's fight our way in, and then everything in the castle will be ours!"

He greatly admired magical weapons that could eject solid balls.

In this magical world, generally the most powerful ones are magic weapons.

So he had no idea that what Aikoli used were not magic weapons, but real hot weapons.

But just when they were full of fighting spirit.

When preparing to rush towards the castle.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of ping-pong coming from the city wall.

Before they could react.

A large number of bullets directly wiped out a row of soldiers.

The army of the Holy See of Light was harvested like wheat.

As they approached the castle, they could see more white smoke coming out of the city walls, followed by hundreds of people falling to the ground.

And the frequency is getting faster and faster.

Previously, it took 30 to 40 seconds to fire a huge solid iron ball.

But now, this small iron egg will have a round of shooting every 20 seconds.

The soldiers' armor was no match for it.

Even though they were wearing heavy armor.

The small iron egg can also break a small hole and then drill into the body, causing great damage.

Except for some higher-level warriors, their bodies have extremely strong defense.

And as they got closer, in addition to the attacks of bullets, there were also large numbers of crossbows and bows, and even powerful crossbow beds. The crossbow arrows were shot out with such force that even ordinary soldiers found it difficult to withstand them.

The casualties of the army of the Holy See of Light became increasingly huge.

Wait until you are close enough.

They used a magician to summon vines.

A ladder was built between the city wall and the ground, allowing the attacking soldiers to climb the ladder, enter the city and kill everyone.

And the magicians and archers of the army of the Holy See of Light.

Also constantly fighting back.

Shoot at the top of the city.

Unfortunately, their lethality is not great, because Metal Castle can weaken the enemy's basic attributes and also enhance its own defense by 20%.

In this way.

The magical world archers of the army of the Holy See of Light were able to injure the guards on the city walls.

But it is also difficult to kill them.

Instead, it was the soldiers who came in through the ladders.

We suffered a fierce attack in the first round.

There were a large number of guards with pistols on the city wall.

He raised his revolver at the parapet and fired wildly at the soldiers who kept rushing forward.

The sound of gunfire continued.

The dense bullets created by this continuous shooting made it impossible for the soldiers of the Holy See of Light, who were originally like crossing a single-plank bridge, to dodge and they had to be hit.

Then he fell from the high city wall.

There were seven or eight guards with pistols at each battlement.

When a soldier ran out of bullets in his pistol, he would immediately step aside to reload.

Others would continue firing their pistols.

It never stopped at all.

The soldiers who continued to rush up the city wall were also hit by endless bullets.

Even if they were not killed by bullets, they were shot in the arms or legs.

Then he lost his balance and fell down.

If you fall from a height of dozens of meters, you will be crippled if not killed.

over time.

The casualties of the army of the Holy See of Light were increasing, but there was not a single soldier standing on the city wall.

Even if there are extremely high-level warriors rushing into the city wall.

They will also be hacked to death, and Mary Fate will weaken the warriors who rush in like a firefighter, reducing their level directly to that of ordinary warriors.

Then he was hacked to death by the guards.

For a time, the army of the Holy See of Light was unable to capture the city.

And they temporarily retreated at the cost of 20,000 casualties.

Then he looked at the metal castle.

But the metal castle opened fire from time to time, and the cannon had a range of up to two kilometers.

So they used the camp of the Holy See of Light’s army as training.

The Holy See of Light was originally stationed 700 meters away from the Metal Castle.

After the camp suffered a round of artillery attacks, it retreated one kilometer away.

Then they were hit by artillery fire and were forced to retreat another 500 meters.

Then about an hour later, they were once again subjected to artillery fire.

In the end, everyone retreated two kilometers away in fear.

At this time, the shells could not hit them.

It can only fall sporadically nearby.

But there were still a few unlucky ones who were hit by artillery fire when they were leaving the camp, and had to crawl back to the camp crippled.

They finally retreated three kilometers away helplessly.

The cannon then stopped firing.

When the commander of the Holy See of Light saw this scene, he almost vomited blood. They had never suffered such a humiliating war and had to retreat three kilometers away.

The area within three kilometers of the metal castle is a safe area.
