"You said... what?" The expression on Alexander's face was as if she had seen a ghost. What did she just say? Open another city gate? What does it mean
"How many magic cannons are there in the army?" Annelotte did not answer Alexander, but just asked lightly.
"We brought a total of twenty doors this time." Alexander was stunned for a moment, and then explained somewhat vaguely.
"Tell the artillery to stop firing casually and blow up the city wall." Annelotte pointed to the wall over there: "I want to blow up there, they will hit there, just concentrate on firing!"
"But... Miss Annelotte." Alexander hesitated and said, "That's a city wall. Are you sure..."
"Sure." Annelotte replied calmly: "Your Highness, just give me the order."
"..." Alexander looked at Annelotte's confident look and hesitated for a moment.
Because of its extremely special geographical location, the importance of Fortress Costa is absolutely unquestionable. When building this fortress, the Stoke Empire designed it according to the highest defense specifications. Apart from the shortcoming of not having a super giant magic circle that interferes with space magic, the defensive capabilities of Costa Fortress are absolutely superb. Not to mention anything else, the city wall alone is tens of meters high. Even just looking at such a huge city wall will make people lose the desire to destroy it.
And from what Annelotte meant, it seemed that she wanted to destroy a section of the city wall with a few magic cannons and herself
From the perspective of reason and common sense, this matter seemed like a fantasy to Alexander. But if intuition is used as the starting point, Alexander feels that this matter is not absolutely impossible.
Because this woman is Annelotte, a girl known as the miracle of miracles. Judging from the information collected by Alexander, it seems that there is never anything Annelotte cannot do. After all, even the red flame magician Saron died in her hands, and even Alexander would wonder, is there anything in this world that she can't do
Maybe there will be, but at least for now, as long as there is something that Annelotte is sure of, there is never anything that she can't do. And today, Annelotte said that she could destroy the city wall...
"Should I believe her?" Alexander couldn't decide for a moment. If Annelotte could do it, then there would be no need to say anything more. But if she couldn't do it... not only would it waste a lot of magic artillery firepower, but also inject troops into the interior of the fortress. The speed will also be significantly hindered. In other words, once it fails, it is likely to lead to the failure of the attack on Costa Fortress. Moreover, there is no doubt that the losses will be heavy!
How to choose
"If you hesitate any longer, your commando team will be wiped out. Don't talk about Lisanna then, I'm afraid you will be in danger. You decide for yourself!" After Annelotte finished speaking, she ignored Alexander.
"..." Alexander looked at the Stoke army that was still rushing towards them like a tide, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
He took out a gem from his pocket, a magical gem that could convey a message. Although he joined the commando team, the overall command of the attack on Costa Fortress still fell on Alexander. And this gem can convey one's will to the command very clearly.
"You should understand that there is absolutely no room for childishness in this matter." Alexander issued a warning sound.
"If you think what I just said is child's play, then you can continue to persist here." Annelotte said lightly. Anyway, if the situation is really wrong, she will lead her group of students to perform group tactics. Teleport and run away directly. If Regna hadn't told him before, she wouldn't have bothered to bother to help Alexander! Do you think I, Annelotte, really like trouble
"..." As the prince of the empire, Alexander felt uncomfortable being choked, but his years of upbringing did not make him lose his temper. The second prince thought for a while and finally decided to listen to Annelotte's opinion.
He put the magic crystal to his mouth and whispered a few words.
"Is everything arranged?" Annelotte casually used the brute force of a group ox and the swiftness of a group leopard to help the commandos defend. Her tone sounded quite calm, as if she was not worried about Alexander's answer at all.
The reality is indeed as Annelotte expected. Every warrior of the Golden Eagle Knights is as precious to Alexander as a treasure in the palm of his hand, and the warriors who dare to join the commando are the best among the knights. The death of a man in battle would be a torture for Alexander. Because these people are all brothers who have spent time with him day and night.
Therefore, after hesitating for five minutes, Alexander finally chose to agree to Annelotte's proposal. This woman is not a frivolous, conceited and arrogant person with high ambitions but low ambitions. On the contrary, all her confidence and all her incredible abilities are based on her even more incredible strength.
Therefore, Alexander would rather risk the failure of this attack and take the gamble willingly. Because he knew that there was a 90% chance that his choice would be correct - in Alexander's opinion, there was at least a 90% chance that what Annelotte had promised could be fulfilled. And this probability is enough for Alexander to take a gamble.
"Yes, the arrangements have been made. You will gain command of the twenty magic cannons in ten minutes." Alexander replied calmly. This is also one of his strengths. For some things, once he makes a decision, Then you will never regret it. He will only focus on how to make the current situation more perfect.
"Very good, tell the artillerymen to bombard the place where the strong white light shines on the city wall." Annelotte's request was simple.
"Is it just...that's all?" Alexander felt even more unsure when he heard the Frost Girl say this...
"That's it, blast at a point, destroy the structure of part of the city wall, and I will take care of the rest. Just shoot three times for each cannon." Annelotte gave the final instruction, and then Use the power of flying to move towards that part of the city wall.
"What on earth is this woman... going to do..." Alexander still can't figure it out until now. After all, the firepower of the magic cannon is quite limited. It is absolutely impossible for this level of power to directly destroy the city wall.
The second prince of the empire cut down two of the Stoker Empire soldiers who were a little careless, and then saw that part of the city wall that Annelotte had originally pointed to was illuminated by a strong white light.
That is the third-level spell Flash Explosion. This spell once had a surprising effect when dealing with dark elves in the Underdark, but today, its role is only to provide a conspicuous and clear target for artillerymen who are uncertain about their targets in the dark.
The roar of the magic energy cannon started again after a few minutes of stasis, but it was different from the previous indiscriminate shooting without even knowing whether it could destroy the house. This time, the shots from the twenty magic cannons were all aimed in one direction, or even one point.
The crimson fireball flew towards the part of the city wall marked by Annelotte like a meteor streaking through the sky. Immediately afterwards, a violent explosion occurred, and the strong explosion flames almost illuminated that section of the fortress wall into daylight.
However, the effect of a strike from the magic cannon is not obvious. The stones selected during the construction of Costa Fortress are quite hard and tough. Therefore, although the explosion caused by the bombardment of the magic cannon seemed violent, it did not cause much damage to the walls of Costa Fortress.
And Annelotte's Flash Explosion spell lit up again. This was Annelotte's response to the tentative blow from the magic cannon just now. When the flash explosion lit up again, it showed that Annelotte was still satisfied with the landing point of the first hit. Then the other artillerymen only needed to fire at the predetermined target point.
Immediately afterwards, twenty magic cannons fired in sequence, and the shells of the magic cannon flew towards the wall of Costa Fortress with their long tails. If you look from a distance, some people may even think that there is a bolide shower in that sky.
An even more violent explosion occurred again, and the sky-high firelight illuminated the night sky almost as if it were daytime.
Although he had seen the power of the magic cannon fired many times, Alexander was still a little surprised at the destructive power of this thing improved by Annelotte as he looked at the earth-shattering explosion in the distance. He even began to suspect that perhaps the magic cannon alone could blast through the walls of Costa Fortress.
But Alexander obviously underestimated everything, whether it was the power of the magic cannon or the strength of the walls of Costa Fortress.
When the violent explosion subsided, what caught Alexander's eyes was a section of ruins that was still burning. After Annelotte's transformation, the magic cannon's magic circle can now add a burning effect to the released cannonballs. These flames will not go out until the magic energy is completely consumed.
But no matter how hard the flames burn, the city walls made of high-quality stones will not be destroyed. Although the city wall was full of cracks at this time, Alexander also knew that no one could destroy the city wall through these cracks.
There are only two ways to do this. One is powerful strength, coupled with fine control capabilities, like the fine control capabilities of both hands.
The other is absolute power, a power that can destroy everything. And now, Alexander was curious about what Annelotte was going to do.
Just as Alexander was thinking over and over again, the icy blue silhouette slowly rose into the air. Annelotte looked at the city wall, seeming to be analyzing something. After a few minutes, the Frost Maiden sang her own spell.
