#425 - Long-range firepower

“The power isn't high, only about 3 degrees…

But it's comparable to a mid-level knight's regular attack, or some magical creatures' 'focused strike'.

More importantly, this value is enough to pose a certain threat to grand knights.

If it can break through defenses, it can kill, and we can rely on aerial superiority to slowly grind them down.

As for larger, more powerful ones, it's not impossible to manufacture them, but the cost would skyrocket, making it not cost-effective in comparison.”

Roy explained his ideas to Tinas and Donny.

Tinas said, “This is indeed a good thing, but how much does a set cost?”

“The cost price is about 2500 magic stones for you.”

“Okay, anyway, the teacher will reimburse us. We'll make the accounts look good then.”

Not exceeding the budget, Tinas didn't care.

Because during the war, those performing tasks eat from the teacher and use the teacher's resources, and can obtain a lot of funding for research and enhancement.

They can't be expected to buy their own weapons and bear their own food, lodging, and medical expenses during a war, right?

Nearby, Baruli spoke excitedly, chattering away.

The gist of it was how handy it was, with the equipment enhancement, as if it were a natural fit.

Now, even the ancient bloodline species are using high-magic technology.

Roy ignored it and discussed the follow-up response with Tinas and Donny.

“Over the past few days, the mages' legions have approached the city and are preparing to launch an attack.

They are mainly coming from the south and have not deployed at the rear.

In addition to those mages, there are also many adventurers taking advantage of the chaos, so we must be wary of them causing damage in the city.”

“Adventurers, in the city?”

Roy was a little strange to hear that.

“Did you let them into the city?”

“What else can we do?

Adventurers claim to be neutral, but often they jump from side to side.

In fact, the Adventurers' Guild's intention is to establish its own organization in Netherland, regardless of whether this organization is under the rule of our teacher or the Great Mage Gem.

If we have money, we can also issue tasks and hire adventurers to help.”

After listening to an explanation, Roy realized that, generally speaking, only those who accept war missions and become mercenaries will enter a hostile state.

Otherwise, according to the adventurer conventions prevailing in the high-magic world…

It's really not easy to deal with them!

This is mainly because they have the backing of the guild.

Frossf doesn't want to offend the other party too much for the time being, and it's impossible to say that he will massacre them in peacetime and kill all the adventurers who come here.

If that were the case, the Great Mage Gem would probably laugh in his dreams.

He's still worried about not finding an excuse to bring in more adventurers to help.

In that case, the guild's strongmen will also intervene strongly to protect their own interests.

In general, these legal principles and clauses are based on the premise of a balance of power between the strong.

Before completely tearing apart the facade, the guise of neutrality must still be maintained.

“I also have a group of adventurer employees who help scout the enemy's camp. They play both sides and will eventually lean towards the victor when the winner is decided.”

“I have an idea…”

After listening to Tinas's description of the general situation, Roy said.

“Issue a task to help me deliver the positioning wizard item to the camp, or use the Wizard's Eye for reconnaissance.”

“Hmm? What do you want to do?”

“I want to take the initiative to attack them!”

That afternoon.

On the other side of the cliff.

Roy found an open space, took out a crystal ball, and illuminated the scene below.

With the help of the high-value bounty mission he urgently issued, he successfully found the location of one of the enemies.

A legion of hundreds of people was ready, with many apprentice mages and various warriors and mercenary followers mixed in.

“Doria, a graduate of the Lulanz Magic Academy, majoring in Protection…

Let's start with you!”

With the vision provided by Tinas's summons, and the positioning mark placed on the ground, Roy roughly confirmed the range of the other party's camp.

In an instant, he took out one after another "war spear" wizard items from the space ring that were as thick as a human arm and like small missiles.

Then, in full view of everyone, Roy's right arm muscles swelled, forming a burst state that was extremely uncoordinated with the delicate teenager.

Bloodline Awakening!

Berserk!

Under the terrifying power of over 400 degrees, close to a level two warrior, the "war spear" wizard items were thrown out.

They flew far in the air, and suddenly, they changed their angle and turned towards the direction of the positioning mark as if they had eyes.

“You can really launch attacks from several kilometers away!”

Tinas and Donny were shocked to see this.

“And you used such insidious methods…

First, remotely project it to a distance, and then use its own power as a follow-up propulsion!”

“This trick is actually learned from the enemy!

I just made a slight improvement!”

Roy laughed dryly and continued to project missiles with brute force!

Soon after, a few kilometers away, in a small forest.

Boom! Boom!

A violent explosion came, and in the terrifying blow like thunder and fire falling from the sky, many intermediate knights and advanced knights were buried in the sea of fire before they could react to what happened.

Doria rode out on horseback with his staff, and a magical shield in the shape of an eggshell lit up on his body.

Several followers around him also set up tower shields to be on guard, resisting the scattered shrapnel and the sand and stones blown away by the shock wave.

“Oh! Damn it!”

“What the hell is going on? Where is the enemy?”

“It seems to be an attack from the sky, and from different directions!”

Doria, wearing a mage robe, was full of panic and disbelief.

How did it feel like the methods of those plastic magic classmates, did an alumnus provide remote fire support for the opposite side?

Soon after, the harpy arrived on the battlefield.

As soon as they came, they threw a wave of alchemical bombs, easily killing more opponents, and then used the newly configured magic light cannons to clean up the fleeing enemies.

During this period, Baruli poured out all of the "Pipit" that Roy had refined and stored before.

Also, the throwing spears and arrows with the "Mental Anchor"!

Doria and others watched in horror, high-explosive missiles fell from the sky from time to time, and artillery fire washed the ground at every turn, causing mass deaths and injuries.

After only a few rounds, a legion of hundreds of people, whose overall strength looked very good, was beaten to pieces before they even figured out what was going on.

And the harpy also found Doria and launched a pursuit.

He also had a few flying summons around him, as well as followers who attacked the air.

But there was no room for them to play at all.

How miserable the Tata Mountain Quarry was bombed at the beginning, how embarrassed he is now.

“What, your troops were defeated before you even saw the enemy's main force?”

Soon, the Costa mage and the Maniffin warlock learned about this and couldn't help but look surprised.
