Chapter 168 Meteorite Rain
Because of the characteristics of this world, even a dark warlock's casting range is not too wide.
This forced the group of dark warlocks to ride the manticore out of the city overnight after receiving Duke Rono's order.
The reconnaissance plane that had been monitoring the entire city of Selia quickly discovered their traces outside the city.
This group of 12 dark warlocks, accompanied by dozens of escorted soldiers, rode their flying mounts to a location more than ten kilometers outside Selia City, and began casting spells as soon as they landed.
The warlocks were mumbling something, and the temporary altar they built pointed in the direction of Tianguang City.
The footage from the reconnaissance plane was immediately passed to the synthetic brigade, but before they even had time to react, the dark spells summoned by the warlocks had already taken effect!
There was a movement comparable to an earthquake of magnitude [-] or [-] in Tianguang City. One-third of the city fell into the dark mud. Dark monsters emerged from it and attacked and killed the awakened residents of the city.
The synthetic brigade headquarters immediately spread the news to the princess. After Irina realized the situation, she followed the advice of the military guidance group and immediately sent flying dragon riders to rescue Tianguang City. It was obviously very successful.
At this time, it is time to liquidate this group of dark warlocks! The leader of the sorcerers is Varuko Shiva, whose identity the princess can guess.
"Varu is a ruthless guy. He helped Rono fight from the beginning, using dark magic to attack the enemy, allowing Rono to win many wars."
Princess Irina tilted her head slightly and spoke, but the instructor on the side raised her eyebrows and said, "Why would someone with such an ability be willing to help ordinary people like Rono?"
"Because Ronno will give him everything he wants!"
The princess sneered, "After all, Rono was still a duke after joining the empire. He provided Varuko with a large amount of resources, including human flesh and blood and samples from various ethnic groups for experiments."
"My father was very aware of these things at the beginning, but because the number of magisters in the empire was scarce, and top warlocks like Varuko were really helpful to the empire's battles, he didn't say anything more."
"But you don't have to worry about the next attack coming so soon. These warlocks use dark magic. Although this kind of magic is more vicious than magic, it also requires a lot of..."
She stopped suddenly as she spoke, and the instructor on the side looked at her in confusion.
"Use it for what?"
"A lot of blood essence..."
When Irina said this, she frowned and said, "Are there any legions from the royal city accompanying these warlocks?"
"Surveillance footage shows more than 40 people accompanying them out of the city."
"Oops!"
The princess suddenly stood up, "If you have discovered that group of warlocks, it is best to deal with them directly now!"
"These damn dark magicians will use human flesh and blood to lift the restrictions on the use of magic. Once they kill the soldiers who followed them out of the city, the second round of dark magic attacks will come soon!"
Everyone in the guidance group looked at each other and realized the seriousness of this problem. Someone immediately stood up and wanted to contact the headquarters urgently.
However, before their contact was established, a harsh air defense siren suddenly sounded from the Tianyao City where they were located! Everyone in the guidance group realized that something bad had happened. They ran outside the door and saw something falling from the this time, they connected to the communication from the headquarters, which asked them to take refuge immediately, because meteorites were raining down from the sky above Tianyao City!
"Isn't this what those warlocks can summon?"
The guidance group immediately took a few steps back and asked Princess Irina directly, receiving a positive answer.
"The warlock group led by Varuk can do this, but it also requires a lot of flesh and blood!"
"Damn!"
The guidance team simply returned to the castle. Some of them immediately opened the notebook they carried with them, connected to the peripheral drone lens, and found that the scale of the meteorite rain was extremely large. If they were to eat them all, I am afraid that the entire Tianyao City would be destroyed. Directly destroyed!
At this moment, a ray of light suddenly burst out from the area outside Tianyao City.
Followed by dozens of bright lights, and then instantly turned into hundreds!
"Our anti-aircraft weapons are up!"
The man whispered, and instructor Zhao remained silent. He was really a little confused about the meteorite rain on such a scale.
Although the combined brigade has a wide variety of weapons, the anti-aircraft weapons are diverse and sufficient in number. This is the first time that anti-aircraft weapons can be used to directly face the meteorite rain! If the interception fails, a meteorite rain of this scale will cause a devastating blow to the cities on the ground...
In the picture, there was already a collision between an anti-aircraft missile and a meteorite. The bright light of the explosion instantly illuminated the entire city, followed closely by the shattered meteorite particles whizzing down!
The guidance team and the castle where Princess Irina was located could hear violent sounds. The exploded meteorite particles hit the top floor of the castle building, like a handful of sand suddenly thrown onto the glass, but the sound was louder. Big, the impact is more violent! The sound of friction silenced everyone, and they all thought in their hearts that this meteor shower would end as soon as possible.
Without waiting for the guidance team to worry too much, soldiers on the ground had already obtained approval. They unloaded a special air-launched device from a certain truck. After emergency assembly and setup, they directly aimed it at above Tianyao City.
"Experimental model 1175, shooting allowed!"
"Bomb loading!"
"Filled!"
"emission!"
Accompanied by a roar from the artillery, the air-launched device opened fire instantly. Its huge recoil even blasted a deep crater into the ground, directly breaking half of the supporting steel structure! boom! With a roaring sound, the test model 1175 shell was pushed straight to an altitude of more than 4000 meters. At this time, the high-speed rotating warhead directly hit a meteorite that was falling at a high speed, and a big explosion suddenly occurred.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light was generated directly above Tianyao City! It was as if a new sun appeared in the sky above Tianyao City, making everyone unable to see clearly what was in front of them! This sun directly blocked all the falling meteorites and swallowed them up. Then the light dissipated in a few seconds, leaving only an empty night.
Everyone in the castle, including Princess Irina, watched the whole process in surprise. After a while, Princess Irina came back to her senses and looked at the guidance group, asking what kind of weapon it was.
"The news from the command center is that... this is a shock wave weapon with the experimental model number 1175. It has been used since it was sent to us by the Weapons Research Institute."
The soldier sitting in front of the computer raised his head, his face full of disbelief: "The meteor shower has all been dealt with!"
