Chapter 156: Frost Metal Heavy Cannon

Bam!

A gunshot burst out.

A silver bullet swirled out of a sniper rifle and flew across several rocks, causing a bloody hole on an Eagle Man who just stood up in the entrenchment and intended to shoot an arrow!

Pa!

The arrow covered in a green light that was fired by the Eagle Man as a counterattack was blocked by a mahogany shield that was one foot thick.

Pew!

It was followed by a rune arrow that was four feet long and basked in a golden light, which was so penetrative that it shot through the mahogany shield. However, it was stopped by a protective pad in front of the soldier’s chest that was made of soft gold.

Boom!

Then, a dull explosion echoed.

A cannonball weighing several kilograms was launched to the area where the golden rune arrow was fired. A billow of white smoke instantly spread out with splashing pieces of arrows and flesh!

…

The battle between human beings and the Eagle Men burst out.

The brief skirmishes between the parties soon escalated into total warfare!

“Attack!”

Ling Zhen, who commanded the artillerymen, roared after killing the Extraordinary Eagle Man who had just fired the golden arrow.

Boom, boom, boom!

Ten Frost Metal Cannons opened fire at the Eagle Men at the same time!

Having obtained the red gunpowder from the Sludge Monsters’ territory and the inexhaustible metal from the Metal Men’s territory, the artillerymen were undoubtedly much more powerful than before!

The small-caliber Frost Metal Cannons they had before only had a range of one kilometer, and their cannonballs weren’t destructive enough.

But at this moment, established behind Ling Zhen was an alloy Frost Metal Cannon that weighed more than a ton. Given the maximal ammunition, it could hit a target five kilometers away and kill an Extraordinary Eagle Man within one kilometer of itself!

Boom! Boom!

The Eagle Men had naturally set up defensive fortifications on the human beings’ way of march.

Also, those fortifications were by no means easy to conquer.

However, under the bombardment of ten large-caliber Frost Metal Cannon, filled with all kinds of special cannonballs, the Eagle Men had been completely suppressed and couldn’t even fight back since the battle began!

“Fog, rise!”

During the bombardment, Gongsun Sheng, in his Daoist robe, waved his Mirage Dragon Sword and raised a strong wind. A fog was generated out of nowhere and blown at the Eagle Men’s positions.

The Eagle Men’s greatest advantage against mankind was their eyesight, and Gongsun Sheng, who could easily manipulate clouds and fog in Extraordinary Rank-5, could easily block that advantage.

More importantly, apart from the Mirage Dragon Sword, Gongsun Sheng was also holding a black calabash.

While Gongsun Sheng cast his spell, a tremendous amount of black air popped out from the black calabash and melted into the fog. It was exactly the Miasma Gourd that Ji Ye reaped from the Battlefield of Providence.

Furthermore, this gourd had been upgraded with the only Extraordinary Rank-3 Stone of Civilization that the Metal Men dropped!

It was possible to hide from the bombardment behind the fortifications, but the poisonous fog was definitely a lethal threat for the Eagle Men.

They could hardly resist it even though they held their breath. A lot of them fell instantly.

“Zhou! Zhou! Zhou!”

The rest of the Eagle Men realized that they couldn’t stay anymore and hurried to escape from the lethal fog out of the fortifications…

“Attack! Shielders, be prepared for their counterattack!”

Li Qing, as the coach of the newly-established Sniper Troop, gave a command!

This troop had fifty members, and about a third of all the players were in it.

After all, a sniper needed careful calculation and consideration, and it was easier for the players, who had received modern education, to learn the skills.

Bang, bang, bang…

The Eagle Men who left their fortifications became walking targets.

Some of them were able to resist the human beings’ barrage with the golden lights on them. They even began to counterattack under the cover of the terrain nearby.

However, the guns of the human beings had much fiercer firepower than the Eagle Men with their bows and arrows.

Besides, every sniper was next to a soldier who was raising a mahogany shield. Light but extremely hard, the mahogany shields protected their critical parts together with the helmets and the chest pads made of soft gold. There was little that the Eagle Men whose main means of attack was their arrows could do!

Under these circumstances, the Eagle Men could only abandon their positions and retreat to their settlement core while they took advantage of the terrain on their way and hid in the blind angles of the snipers and the artillerymen.

As excellent archers, the Eagle Men were quite good at that.

“Black Armor Soldiers, keep up!”

However, human beings didn’t just have artillerymen and snipers!

Yang Zhi, fully covered in black armor, waved his saber and led the charge with the Blue Faced Beast.

Exclusively composed of locals that were elites and even Quasi Commanders, the Black Armor Soldiers were now all above Extraordinary Rank-2. Covered in armor and the green shields made of the soul jade, they weren’t afraid of the counterattack of the Eagle Men whose formation had been disrupted!

It would’ve been impossible for the Black Armor Soldiers who were burdened by their heavy armor to catch up with the scattered Eagle Men, but they could do so with the Steelback Blue Wolves that they were riding.

The Eagle Men lived in a complicated environment that had plenty of rocks. It was hard for the regular cavalry to play a role.

However, the Steelback Blue Wolves lived in rocky areas in the first place, and they were even faster than the Ordinary Eagle Men in their favorite environment.

“Stop bombarding. Artillerymen, onward!”

After the Black Armor Soldiers took action, Ling Zhen gave out an order too.

After hearing what Ling Zhen said, blue lights appeared on the arms of the ten Silver Suit Guards as they lifted the ten Frost Metal Cannons on the ground!

Although the Silver Suit Guards didn’t have any advantage in defense when they weren’t on a metal ground, it must be noted that all of them had magnificent physical strength, and the test for their arrival was to move the Metal Men’s bodies. They could relocate the one-ton Frost Metal Cannons easily.

More importantly, because they could set up the cannons anywhere for firing by melting the Silver Liquid into cannons and reshaping them, the humans could’ve easily pushed all the way to the Eagle Men’s settlement core through bombardment if they had enough red gunpowder from the mines!
