After seeing the bosses off, I also broke camp and set off. Although the military order required me to go with the army and did not impose any restrictions, I didn't want others to find an opportunity to make fun of me.
While the entire army was dumbfounded, 1,000 'monkey soldiers' (my recruits had only undergone a few days of horse riding training and were basically just hanging on horses like monkeys. Soldiers from other armies secretly called them monkey cavalry) turned into chariot soldiers, and 500 strangely shaped chariots that were hastily assembled overnight appeared in front of everyone.
The two sides are like two small coffins, each with a groove that is nearly 2 meters long and larger than a child's arm. In the middle of the two objects is a wooden hand wheel. It is a strange thing, which is the consensus of everyone who has seen it.
Together with the previous 500 carriages, my 1,000 carriages made all the officers feel strange, but because of their awareness of Thacker's power, none of the officers dared to come up and give me orders.
"Oh my god! Teacher, look at that army. Why are they like this? I can't believe they are preparing to attack Huangshi City. If it were normal times, I would definitely think they were a merchant caravan. Teacher, do you know what this army does? Transporting food and fodder? Or something else?"
Hundreds of meters away from me, a female magician from the magician unit looked at my long line of cars moving forward and asked the magician Murray sitting in front of her in surprise. If I had the honor to meet this female magician, I would definitely find that this was the peerless beauty I saw that day in my heart.
"Irina, those are the troops of the Flame Legion. When we came together, didn't you recognize the flag of the Flame Legion? Cough, you little fool. But these people are the new recruits of the Flame Legion. They have only been formed for a few days. I guess Thacker is going to use them as cannon fodder or miscellaneous soldiers. A bunch of poor people, they were all slaves of the Lord of Custer before entering the Flame Legion. Unexpectedly, they just escaped from the sea of suffering and fell into the threat of death again.
However, their commander is a very popular figure. That day in the City Lord's Mansion, Captain Carsent almost had a conflict with Thacker because Thacker used tricks to forcibly pull people away from him. According to the information I got from Lord Baroque later, the kid named Shen Hanlong is a very smart mechanic who is very proficient in the manufacture and use of war facilities. In the previous battle, he played a big role in the Eastern Territory's army being able to return and repel the pursuers.
Well, since you are so interested in this army, let's take a look at them... " As he spoke, Murray whispered a short and quick spell. Then, a stream of light flashed in the carriage. After the dazzling light passed, a light curtain almost as big as a washbasin appeared in front of me, and what appeared inside was the army I was in.
Inside, several soldiers on a carriage were busy chopping something with axes. They were not slacking off because they were working on a bumpy carriage. They were serious and meticulous. Seeing the strange things appearing from their hands, Mori and Irina were surprised. These people were not soldiers at all. They looked like craftsmen. Although the things they made were a little rough to the two of them, they were completely confused by the situation in front of them because they knew a little about these soldiers. How could these slave miners learn carpentry so quickly? But what they didn't know was that these soldiers basically only knew how to make a few things, and some even only knew how to make one component. If they only learned one simple job for many days in a row, even the dumbest people could learn it well.
After looking at the soldiers, Irina and Mori turned their attention to the strange carriages that appeared overnight. When Mori's eyes fell on the narrow "coffins" and saw the strange grooves on those strange things, cold sweat broke out on Mori's head. A few quick spells magnified the scene on the light screen several times. Then, Mori's face turned extremely pale, and he kept muttering something in a low voice. Even his lips began to tremble due to excessive excitement. "Demon, Demon-breaking Crossbow... God! How is this possible? How could the demon-breaking artifact that appeared in the Kingdom of God's Destruction appear again? Could it be that the Tiangong clan still has survivors on this land?"
Due to Murray's excessive excitement, in addition to Irina who directly felt that her mentor was abnormal, several other magicians in the carriage were also alarmed by Murray's reaction and focused their attention here. But after listening to Murray's words and looking at the things in the light curtain, several older magicians with wider knowledge also changed their faces. The shock they received was definitely no less than Murray's. . . . .
"Teacher, what is this thing? Is it worthy of your being so moved? Are these things so powerful? Are they stronger than the power of our combined Holy Light Spear?" Seeing her mentor and several predecessors so shocked, Irina felt quite unconvinced. Seeing that thing should also be a weapon, she immediately took out her strongest magic to compare with it.
"Elena, there is no comparison. Although our magic is stronger than the magic-breaking crossbow in terms of attack power, and the range of both sides is similar. However, the firing speed and subsequent attack capabilities are definitely not comparable to magicians.
If 1,000 of us jointly fire Holy Light Spears, firing up to 10 times in a row, most of our mages will lose their combat effectiveness, but they can fire continuously.
In addition, each time we join forces to launch the Holy Light Spear, we need to wait for 1 minute, while the opponent can launch more than 2 times in this minute.
Think about it, to train a qualified magician, we definitely need more than 3 years, and that person must have relatively good potential; and to operate these magic-breaking crossbows, I estimate that even the dumbest person, with 1 month of practice, is enough to become a qualified operator.
As for the manufacture of those demon-breaking crossbows, you also saw that there were none yesterday, but they produced so many in one night. Do you think that if all countries equip them in large quantities, will there be any chance for us magicians to survive? I didn’t expect that the ultimate weapon used to fight against the demons thousands of years ago would appear on the continent again. Is this a blessing or a curse? "
After listening to the explanation of an old magician, everyone fell silent. Thinking of the miserable plight of those demon mages during the last demon invasion, everyone felt a chill in their hearts about this kind of weapon.
Although none of them had experienced the battle between humans and demons, they could learn about the horrific battle from the Continental Chronicles or the Continental Magic Chronicles. At that time, the demons invaded with unstoppable force, and the millions of troops mobilized by countries across the continent were beaten back step by step.
At this time, a small desert country close to the God and Demon defense line took out the mysterious weapon they relied on to defend their country - the Devil-Breaking Crossbow. Under the attack of this perverted weapon, a large number of magicians and demon soldiers were completely blocked outside the range of the Devil-Breaking Crossbow, and those who got close were all sent to hell without exception.
As a result, the continental coalition army, equipped with a large number of demon-breaking crossbows, drove the demon army directly to the seaside and suppressed the enemy on the coast. As the number of demon-breaking crossbows increased, the demon army was basically on the verge of extinction.
At this time, the demon army had no choice but to make a decision that seriously damaged their vitality, which was to use forbidden magic to deal with the threat of the Demon-Breaking Crossbow. . . . .
Hundreds of forbidden spells completely broke the encirclement, but the super magicians of the demon army were almost wiped out in this battle. While the human coalition army was in chaos after suffering a heavy blow, the remaining demon army immediately took the opportunity to counterattack and killed all the soldiers and civilians who were near the demon defense line. However, at this time, they were also unable to continue due to their heavy losses. Not only did they not have the ability to expand the results of the battle, but they even lacked the strength to resist the further counterattack of the mainland coalition army, and finally left the mainland helplessly.
In this battle, not only the forbidden spells cast by those super wizards of the Demon Tribe became the object of fear of the world (in order to eliminate the threat of the Magic-Breaking Crossbow, the Demon Tribe cast 172 forbidden spells, among which 97 wizards died, 7 grand wizards and mages died, 36 wizards lost their magic power, and 10 grand wizards were seriously injured), the reputation of the Magic-Breaking Crossbow also spread throughout the entire continent.
But what made all humans sad was that when the reinforcements of the human army arrived there, not only had the demon army disappeared, but all the demon-destroying crossbows were also worn out, and even the Destruction Kingdom had been completely destroyed by the demons. . . . .
