The sun is high - #145 - Chapter 144 The Roar of Death

In the city of Bolden, seeing the shells of the crystal cannon falling, this is simply a scene that should only appear in a nightmare.

Such a picture was so unbelievable that when Xiuge saw the black dots trailing the magic power, a series of questions popped up in his mind.

“Where is Bolden’s protective secret? Where is Bolden’s city defense force? Where is the Fifth Chasseur Regiment? What do they do for food?”

However, after thinking about it, I couldn’t understand it. The speed of those black spots fell too fast, so Charron’s touch immediately appeared, and directly rolled up Sally amidst her exclamations.

At the same time, Shuge opened his mouth and shouted a warning to others around him.

“Bombardment!”

Almost at the moment his voice sounded, the magic alarm set up in Bolden City made a harsh sound that resounded throughout the city. In this alarm sound, Shuge quickly made a judgment, and then took Sally with him. He rushed directly to a corner away from the building of the Alchemy Physician Academy.

Although Shuge didn’t know why these shells could silently avoid Bolden City’s protective mysteries, his intuition told him that this sudden bombardment was most likely related to today’s large-scale recruitment activity. In this case Next, staying away from those crowded recruiting places is the best choice!

After two breaths, Xiuge’s judgment was confirmed.

The moment the magic protection ritual he set up took effect, a cannonball with the flash of magic crystals slammed into the Alchemy Physician Academy with a roar.

The terrifying magic explosion directly acted on the road that Shuge walked when he came here. The lavender magic cloud spread rapidly amidst the roar, and the violent impact directly destroyed everything near the impact point of the shell, including statues and street signs. , street lights, vegetation…and of course the human body.

This is the power of the real crystallized cannon.

When high-purity magic crystals undergo uncontrollable riots during complex rituals and violent collisions, the magic wave they set off is enough to tear apart almost everything within the explosion range, even old-fashioned cannonballs produced decades ago. , as long as the magic power of the magic crystal has not been lost, it can also cause huge damage.

The air waves picked up countless gravel, debris and other debris. Shuge knew that the temporary protective ritual he had set up was not enough to completely resolve the impact, so the Touch of Charron that had previously entangled Sally immediately released her. , and then layer upon layer formed a dark barrier in front of Xiuge.

Not only the School of Alchemy Physicians, but many places in Bolden City were hit by artillery shells, including some important buildings. For a time, the roar was continuous, almost covering up the piercing magic alarm in the city.

Under this situation, Shuge had no way to care about others. Although he withstood the aftermath of the explosion with the help of protective rituals and the Touch of Charron, the metal disc in his spiritual world was still spinning. It means the danger is not over yet!

Xiuge looked around, then he directly opened the magic book, tore off several pieces of paper with protective rituals engraved on them, and relied on the magic power constantly pouring out of his body to quickly set up a simple ritual site under his feet that was far more powerful than before. At the same time, Charron’s Touch, supported by the power of the “Walking Forest”, burst out with astonishing power. They directly knocked down several stone statues erected nearby and forcibly dragged them forward, barely forming a capable formation. A shelter to withstand the impact.

At this time, in the garden not far away, there were many college students who had escaped the first bombardment. They had never been on the battlefield and had never seen such a tragic scene, so they all looked extremely panicked. Under such circumstances, a mage who was actively building a defensive bunker became their first choice to rely on, so these panicked young people gathered towards the corner where Xiuge was, and shiveringly hid in this protective ritual. And in the “safety corner” built by stone statues.

Among these evacuees, several were injured due to the aftermath of the explosion. The blood on their bodies helped Sally and other students regain their sanity. They immediately began to try to stop the bleeding and bandage the wounds of their companions…

The rotation of the metal disk was getting faster and faster, so Xiuge constructed the magic pattern again, and applied the magic used to reinforce buildings and positions to the temporary defenses in front of him. Then he shouted sharply at all the young students who were hiding in Said: “Don’t stand! Everyone get down!”

For ordinary people, the deterrence of a mage is certainly sufficient.

Therefore, everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and fell down according to Shuge’s instructions. Almost in the next second, more black spots streaked across the sky, and this time, the targets of these crystal shells were no longer scattered.

What they are targeting is the Alchemy Physician Academy as a recruitment site!

The whistling sound above his head and the terrifying sense of oppression made Shuge couldn’t help but curse. Then he himself prostrated on the ground. Countless Charron’s Touches appeared, and they forcibly filled up the remaining parts of this rough bunker. gap and cover everyone here as much as possible.

In a few seconds of silence, a shock and loud noise that could overturn the entire earth came.

In Bolden City, the residents who were extremely frightened by the first round of shelling were horrified to see those terrifying magic crystal shells falling accurately towards the same area.

A few seconds later, a large amount of magical clouds caused by the explosion of these shells bloomed in the Bolden School of Alchemy Physicians. From a distance, these continuous clouds were like a huge flower blooming in the clear sky.

Shuge couldn’t see what was going on outside, and he had no intention of looking, because one of the cannonballs landed in the garden where Shuge had been before, only thirty or forty meters away from where he was now!

The aftermath of the chaotic magic explosion swept across in an instant. The moment the impact arrived, Xiuge felt that the stream-level protection rituals he had set up were under unspeakable pressure. The outermost layer of protection was destroyed in an instant. It was torn open on the spot, and then several other rituals located in the inner layer took effect at the same time. During the violent impact, the light of magic continued into one piece, and the crisp sound of broken magic continued to enter Xiuge’s mind.

It is really too much to try to use magic that protects against general attacks to resist the impact of crystallized cannonballs.

Therefore, after holding on for just two seconds, all the protective rituals were declared damaged, and the remaining shock wave hit the temporary bunker built by Shuge with a large amount of debris and debris.

The timid students screamed in horror, but more people still insisted on lying on the ground, holding their heads and quietly waiting for the end of the impact.

Powered by a magical explosion, any ordinary stone fragments will become deadly bullets.

Those sculptures used to pay tribute to the famous alchemy scholars in history became fatal bullets fired at their successors in the magic explosion. Xiuge could hear countless debris hitting places very close to him, and those who used The Charron’s Touch that came to fill the gaps and gaps suffered even greater losses – even though they had a hard black horny shell, they still looked extremely fragile at this moment.

A sharp fragment of the statue successfully passed through the gap in the stone statue’s bunker. It directly broke through the Charron’s Touch blocking the gap, and cut through Shuge’s back like a rotating sharp blade, and then nailed it to another in front of students.

Being injured in this situation is pure bad luck.

However, after enduring the torture from the Dream Sanctuary, Shuge’s tolerance for pain was no longer what it used to be. Therefore, he did not move or make any sound, but quietly continued to use magic power to support him. He took Charron’s touch and took the time to reattach a layer of protective ritual to the bunker in front of him.

The aftermath of the magic explosion finally dissipated, and Xiuge finally breathed a sigh of relief as he felt the speed of the metal disc slow down. He was about to get up, but someone reached out and held him down.

“You’re injured, don’t move around yet.”

Sally’s voice didn’t seem too panicked, just a little shaky.

She saw that the trench coat Xiuge was wearing had been torn with a huge tear, and the blood had soaked the clothes. No matter how she looked at it, it looked like a huge wound that could kill someone.

Just when she wanted to call other people next to her to help, Shuge’s mage hand flew out from the side. It flexibly opened the magic book, tore out the spare “Magic First Aid” page, and put it in the magic book. Magic is infused into it.

As a student at the Medical College, Sally certainly knew how to use this kind of book page, so she quickly took it, and then she slightly opened the clothes on Shuge’s back to expose the wound as much as possible.

“Um?”

Sally was stunned for a moment.

Logically speaking, with this level of bleeding, the wound must not be too small. However, when she opened the shocking tear in the clothes, she found that the injury on Xiuge’s back did not seem to be as serious as she thought.

Although she felt it was a bit strange, Sally didn’t delve into it at the moment. She flexibly folded the book page that had begun to work in half from the middle, and carefully pasted it towards the wound on Shuge’s back. The emerald green color symbolizing the luster of healing magic immediately Then the wound was covered.

Feeling the coolness coming from his back, Xiuge breathed a sigh of relief.

Since he successfully “harvested” the power of the “Walking Forest” in the Dream Sanctuary, his physical condition has improved to a considerable extent.

While the stock and stability of his magic power have increased considerably, his body seems to have also gained the vigorous vitality that originally belonged to the “Walking Forest”. Under the current circumstances, as long as his heart continues to beat, his The body can be continuously replenished with magic power and vitality.

The increase in the speed of injury healing is the most intuitive manifestation of this power.

With the cover of healing magic, Xiuge stopped suppressing the vitality surging in his body, so the wound began to repair again. Feeling the numbness and itch on his back, Xiuge knew that it would not be long before this seemingly… The terrible wound will be completely healed.

No more crystallized cannonballs fell, and the sky in Bolden returned to tranquility. When Shuge raised his head, he could only see the traces of magic left by them as they flew through the sky.

At this time, General Bernhardt, who had been Shuge’s “military advisor” during this period, expressed his views.

“These shells did not come from outside Bolden City at all. Judging from the direction, they are very likely to come from the Eagle Hills on the outskirts of Bolden City… which is also covered by the city’s secret ritual.”

Xiuge stood up with Sally’s careful support. He looked at the area in front of him that was shrouded in thick magic clouds and exhaled: “So, what you are saying is that these two rounds of bombardment actually started from waves. Launched in Erden City? Shelling yourself?”

“It’s a bit weird to say that, but judging from the trajectory of the cannonball, it’s true.”

General Bernhardt explained calmly: “And only this situation can explain why these crystallized cannonballs can avoid the obstruction of the ceremony site and fall directly into the city without any warning! But from now on Judging from the situation, the people in charge of city defense have also rushed over there.”

The magic alarms in Bolden City are still ringing continuously, and the students, soldiers, and teachers and professors from the college who had successfully avoided the bombardment have now reappeared. The Fifth Chasseur Regiment and the Mage Council will respond very quickly. They took over the place at a fast speed, so under their mandatory orders and command, all the alchemy doctors took action. Regardless of whether they were willing or not, afraid or not, they must now help the Chasseur Regiment search and treat the wounded as much as possible.

Sally was no exception. Under such circumstances, lunches and appointments had to be postponed. After confirming that Shuge was not seriously injured, she decisively joined the rescue work along with other students. , and Shuge, after accepting the gratitude and gratitude of the students, also joined the team of spellcasters temporarily organized by the council and began to use magic to help move the wreckage of the buildings.

A gray-faced guy came out of nowhere. When he got closer, Shuge realized that it was Alfred.

The young major officer’s face was now full of anger. When he saw that the order on Xiuge’s side was still normal, the anger on his face weakened slightly.

“Damn, their first round of shelling was basically testing ballistics. This is where they really want to hit… Those attackers came here to recruit our troops.”

Alfred noticed Shuge’s damaged clothes, so he pointed at the tear: “Are you okay?”

“The minor injuries have been taken care of…how are the casualties?”

Hearing these words, Alfred shook his head. He stuffed a cigarette into Shuge and replied through gritted teeth: “The losses of the Chasseur Regiment were not big. There were only a few unlucky guys who were lazy and smoking and their Tianling Caps were hit by artillery shells.” , there was no other damage, but one of the recruitment points was hit by two artillery shells… Damn it, there are all citizens there who came to send their relatives to join the army!”
