Chapter 394 Goblin Catapult

Angels on High and Bleeding Blade, among others, were just discussing the war, believing that there was no way an accident could happen. Even if there were some losses, as long as the Ironclad Catapults were still around, they could guarantee their advantage on the battlefield.

Just then, news suddenly arrived from below that the members of the Niu Ren Tribe were preparing to break out of Cripps Fortress. In addition, the Temple of Galaan and the Holy Roman Empire were also making moves, leading a large group of players, about a hundred thousand in number, to encircle them.

"The Niu Ren Tribe is preparing for a decisive battle. Get ready! Everyone, protect the Ironclad Catapults at all costs!" Angels on High said in a deep voice. The decisive battle was about to begin; victory or defeat would be decided at this moment.

"Have the Triumph Empire and Holy Light Flame stall the Temple of Galaan and the Holy Roman Empire! Also, the League of Mages and Holy Guardian will have reinforcements coming." Bleeding Blade glanced at the messages coming from various locations, a flash of excitement on his face. Under the pressure from Cao Xu's side, the League of Mages and Holy Guardian had finally decided to take action.

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp whistling sound pierced the air from afar. This sound was even more imposing than the launching of iron balls by the Ironclad Catapults. Angels on High's expression changed, and he looked towards the direction of the sound.

He saw a red-hot iron ball streaking across the sky, forming a curved arc. This iron ball came from the highest point of Cripps Fortress, its target being their Ironclad Catapults!

The iron ball crashed down, directly hitting an Ironclad Catapult. The point of impact was slightly off, but where the iron ball struck, wood chips flew everywhere, and the Ironclad Catapult was set ablaze. After damaging a portion of the Ironclad Catapult, the iron ball continued to roll forward, knocking down dozens of Warblade Bloodthirsty players.

The iron ball caused a wave of chaos.

The Ironclad Catapult being set on fire caused panic among all the surrounding Warblade Bloodthirsty players.

"Water magic, quick!"

A column of water descended from the sky, extinguishing the flames on the Ironclad Catapult.

The Goblin Magic Cannon's attack had caused severe damage to the Ironclad Catapult, leaving it in a semi-crippled state. Many of the wooden supports next to it were broken, and one of the wheels was directly destroyed.

"It's a Magic Cannon!" Angels on High's expression was somewhat unpleasant. He saw the dark muzzle at the highest point of Cripps Fortress and immediately recognized it. "Damn it! Have all the Ironclad Catapults retreat!"

He hadn't expected things to change so suddenly. The rarity of Goblin Magic Cannons was no less than that of Ironclad Catapults. He knew a little about Goblin Magic Cannons. The most basic Goblin Magic Cannon had a range of about a thousand yards, and the Ironclad Catapults simply couldn't compete with them.

If they didn't retreat quickly enough, all three Ironclad Catapults would be lost there. Once all three Ironclad Catapults were destroyed, the outcome was predictable.

Under their command, two Ironclad Catapults began to slowly retreat. Although the Ironclad Catapult that had been hit by the Goblin Magic Cannon could still attack, one of its wheels had been damaged, making it impossible to move.

The entire Warblade Bloodthirsty force began to mobilize, retreating towards the rear.

At the highest point of Cripps Fortress,

Brilliant Saber was in charge of commanding here. Some Niu Ren Tribe players were cooling down the Goblin Magic Cannon.

"Keep attacking! Warblade Bloodthirsty's Ironclad Catapults are about to escape! Load the cannonballs!" The players next to him shouted anxiously.

"No, the Goblin Magic Cannon needs a thirty-second cooldown. If you use it without cooling it down, the Goblin Magic Cannon will explode!" An alchemist next to him hurriedly stopped them.

Hearing what the alchemist said, everyone could only wait helplessly.

Thirty seconds passed, and two warrior players immediately lifted an iron ball and stuffed it into the muzzle of the Goblin Magic Cannon, then looked towards the Warblade Bloodthirsty's forces.

At this moment, they saw that two Ironclad Catapults in the Warblade Bloodthirsty's forces had retreated far away.

"Aim!"

They began to move the Goblin Magic Cannon, calibrating the range. They were using the Goblin Magic Cannon for the first time, lacking skilled gunners, so they were all somewhat flustered. For some novices operating the cannon, they were already doing very well.

They quickly aimed at the second Ironclad Catapult, calibrating the trajectory.

Another sharp whistling sound echoed as the muzzle of the Goblin Magic Cannon spat out a long tongue of fire.

The iron ball flew out, heading towards the distant battlefield.

With a loud bang, because the two Ironclad Catapults were in motion, the iron ball did not hit the Ironclad Catapult but landed among the Warblade Bloodthirsty players. The iron ball swept across, instantly blasting down more than a hundred Warblade Bloodthirsty players.

After landing, the iron ball didn't stop there but bounced and rolled along the ground, clearing a large area.

After rolling for dozens of yards, it finally came to a stop. Where the iron ball had rolled, corpses littered the ground.

Although the Goblin Magic Cannon didn't hit the Ironclad Catapult, it still caused great deterrence to the Warblade Bloodthirsty's forces. With the Goblin Magic Cannon there, the Ironclad Catapults didn't dare approach within a thousand yards of the walls of Cripps Fortress and could only retreat continuously.

Cripps Fortress was safe.

At this moment, the gates of Cripps Fortress slowly opened, and the Niu Ren Tribe players surged out like a tide, pouncing on the Warblade Bloodthirsty players like fierce tigers descending the mountain.

Charge!

Their momentum was like a rainbow!

"Kill all those Warblade Bloodthirsty bastards!"

"The Niu Ren Tribe is invincible!"

Let the blood flow like a river under Cripps Fortress!

These Niu Ren Tribe players collided with the Warblade Bloodthirsty people, and a fierce melee ensued. Some places were still set up with Thunderstorm Totems, which emitted explosions, and lightning swept across, felling swaths of Niu Ren Tribe players.

However, at this time, the Niu Ren Tribe's charge was unstoppable. They pounced on the Ironclad Catapults, disregarding losses.

The two Ironclad Catapults fled in panic, while the damaged Ironclad Catapult launched five burning iron balls, flying towards the Niu Ren Tribe's forces, instantly clearing three to four hundred people.

"Warriors, charge! Mages, attack the catapults!"

On the Warblade Bloodthirsty side, the hundreds of elites guarding the Ironclad Catapults began to exchange fire with the Niu Ren Tribe players.

"Damn, these Niu Ren Tribe people are really reckless!" A Grand Mage of the Holy Guardian cast one area-of-effect spell after another. He had already killed five to six hundred people, but Niu Ren Tribe players continued to rush up. This momentum was awe-inspiring.

Even heroes can't stand being outnumbered!

The Niu Ren Tribe players surged forward in an endless stream!

"Damn it, stop that elemental mage!" The Grand Mage suddenly sensed abnormal magical fluctuations nearby and looked towards the Niu Ren Tribe players, where a level 40-plus fire mage was waving his staff, casting the fire-based area-of-effect spell Meteor Fall.

But at this moment, all of the Grand Mage's spells were on cooldown, and the others were too busy dealing with the Niu Ren Tribe's onslaught to spare any effort!

A giant fireball fell from the sky, smashing into the damaged Ironclad Catapult. With a boom, the flames exploded, sweeping across and clearing out the Warblade Bloodthirsty players around the Ironclad Catapult. The Ironclad Catapult was smashed into pieces by the meteor.

Although the Ironclad Catapult's attacks were powerful, it was very fragile, made entirely of wood with only a thin layer of iron skin on the outside.

The flames engulfed the Grand Mage guarding the Ironclad Catapult.

A renowned Grand Mage was actually killed by an unknown nobody.

"Xiao Dong, well done."

"Everyone, charge! Kill them!"

......

The Niu Ren Tribe players were greatly boosted in morale, beating a dog in the water.

As this Ironclad Catapult collapsed into rubble, the other two Ironclad Catapults retreated in panic. Nothing could stop the Niu Ren Tribe anymore.

After the Goblin Magic Cannon cooled down for thirty seconds, it fired another shell. That shell landed near an Ironclad Catapult, only a yard away, instantly blasting away twenty to thirty Warblade Bloodthirsty players, including five or six top elites from the League of Mages and Holy Guardian.

Even elites, no matter how strong their defenses, were still incredibly fragile under the powerful attacks of the Goblin Magic Cannon.

Even a Tier 1 Great Swordsman wielding a heavy shield was still instantly killed.

The Warblade Bloodthirsty people were in full retreat, and the Ironclad Catapults finally slowly retreated out of the Goblin Magic Cannon's range.

"First squad, second squad, hold them back!" Bleeding Blade gave orders nervously. He hadn't expected the situation to suddenly become so unmanageable.

Just then, on the hillside in the distance, more than a thousand Niu Ren Tribe players also began to charge towards Warblade Bloodthirsty.

The Niu Ren Tribe warriors charged down like a tsunami.

"Niu Ren Tribe brothers, victory belongs to our Niu Ren Tribe! Let Warblade Bloodthirsty, the League of Mages, Holy Guardian, and Angel Corps all go to hell! From now on, we gather together, sharing life and death, advancing and retreating together, until our presence is felt everywhere on this land! Glory is our life!" Nie Yan looked at the flood of Niu Ren Tribe players ahead, his heart filled with heroic spirit.

Wherever this group of Niu Ren Tribe elites passed, the Warblade Bloodthirsty people retreated.

On Angels on High's side, he discovered that they were being attacked from both sides. He calmly commanded the elites of the League of Mages, Holy Guardian, and Angel Corps, nearly a thousand in number, to rush over and intercept the Niu Ren Tribe elites on Nie Yan's side. Bleeding Blade also quickly organized more than ten thousand players, forming a solid line of defense to defend against the Niu Ren Tribe players coming from Cripps Fortress.

At this moment, the two Ironclad Catapults slowly turned their muzzles, and ten burning red-hot iron balls flew into the sky and fell down, instantly clearing out thousands of ordinary Niu Ren Tribe players.

After escaping the Goblin Magic Cannon's range, the Ironclad Catapults were still a terrifying presence on the battlefield.

The Niu Ren Tribe players launched fierce charges towards the direction of the Ironclad Catapults time and time again, disregarding losses. Although they were beaten back again and again, they still clung to the Warblade Bloodthirsty people without fear of death.

The war entered a stalemate.
