Chapter 288: Hit the target with one shot

Boom!

A thunderous sound resounded over the town!

Dense spell rays tore through the void and hit the energy field on the surface of the wizard tower almost at the same time. In an instant, a large area of ​​distortion appeared, and the entire force field fluctuated violently, as if it would collapse in the next second.

Facing the siege of more than 300 magic ships and two star fortresses, the wizard tower of the Black Soto Tower finally couldn't hold on after destroying more than 70 magic ships and prepared to break through.

However, just as it was about to take action, the star fortress on the left suddenly shot out a dazzling and thick lightning, which hit the wizard tower!

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the energy field of the wizard tower collapsed.

"Plasma cannon? Damn, how can such a turret be installed on a war creation that is not even a wizard tower?"

The Black Soto wizard in the wizard tower roared in shock and anger.

Unfortunately, anger could not change the situation. After losing the energy field, the wizard tower was immediately exposed to the firepower of many war creatures. In an instant, countless artillery fire swept in, submerging the wizard tower like a torrent!

Despite desperate counterattacks and destroying more than ten magic ships, the wizard tower finally fell to the ground with bursts of green smoke.

More than a dozen figures rushed out of the wizard tower, scattered and flew in all directions.

However, the Star Alliance was well prepared. When they heard bursts of wolf howls, dozens of dusk wolves rushed out from all sides, roaring to stop the wizards of the Black Sort Tower.

Following closely, the wizards of the Star Alliance also rushed out of the wizard tower and joined the hunt!

Under the front and back attacks of the wizards and the dusk wolves, more than a dozen Black Sort Tower wizards were quickly wiped out!

After putting the energy-consuming Black Thunder into the space ring, Sherman looked at the damaged Black Sort Tower Wizard Tower not far away, and a smile appeared on his face.

"After fighting for more than a year, this is the first time we have captured the wizard tower of the Black Sortie Tower."

Atir walked over with a smile on his face.

Sheman smiled and said, "There is no way. The Black Sortie Tower is too cautious. The wizard tower rarely goes out alone, and it will flee immediately when it sees that the situation is not good. If it weren't for setting a trap this time, it would not be so easy to keep the opponent."

For this operation, they prepared for more than two months, risking being ambushed in turn, riding a wizard tower and wandering alone on the edge of the occupied area, taking the risk of luring the enemy into the trap step by step.

Fortunately, the final result was good.

Although nearly a hundred magic ships were lost, compared with the capture of a small wizard tower, this loss was completely acceptable.

At this time, the battle in the town was also nearing its end.

Countless black wolves ran and bit in the town, constantly killing the enemies who were still resisting, and turning a blind eye to the unarmed civilians and surrendered soldiers.

After all the troops were transported to the Ulan plane, the Star Alliance changed its combat mode, using the wolf pack and the Golem Legion as the main attacking force, and the Magic Pattern Knights as the auxiliary, to attack the towns of the Ulan plane.

Compared with the Magic Pattern Knights with a longer breeding cycle, the manufacturing (hatching) cycle of the Golem Puppet and the Black Wolf is much shorter, so it is not a pity even if there are more casualties.

Under the fierce offensive of the Star Alliance regardless of losses, the occupied area of ​​the Star Alliance has expanded nearly four times in the past year!

Although this area is less than one percent of the entire Ulan plane, it is already very good to achieve such a record when the war creatures are not dominant and can only rely on the ground army to advance.

After eliminating the last bit of resistance in the town, Sherman left some people to clean up the battlefield, and then returned to the Cold Wind City base with the damaged wizard tower.

"Well done."

After listening to Sherman and Atil's report, Liz smiled and nodded.

The strength of the war creatures of the Star Alliance and the Ulan plane is not much different. The Ulan plane lost a wizard tower, and the Star Alliance will have one more wizard tower after the repair is completed.

The difference between the two small wizard towers is the difference between the gains and losses.

After praising Sherman and Atil, Liz asked them to leave, and then arranged for people to start repairing the wizard tower.

After doing all this, she came to the laboratory where Sunan was.

In the center of the spacious laboratory, there stood a huge turret. The surface of the metal material was engraved with dense and strange runes, and the nodes where the runes intersected were inlaid with various magic gems.

Sunan stood next to the turret, seemingly making the final adjustments.

"Is this the newly developed pulse cannon type III?" Liz asked with interest.

Sunan knew she was coming a long time ago, and replied without raising his head: "Yes, it will be completed today."

The synthesis of the pulse cannon type III is not difficult at all. What really takes time is to produce a sufficient number of pulse cannons for synthesis and to test the compatibility with the Starlight Wizard Tower.

Today's Pulse Cannon Type III is the best choice after Sunan's many adjustments.

The power of a pulse cannon is enough to reduce the protective energy field of the maze of a large wizard tower (standard and unreinforced) by more than 80%.

If it is a medium-sized wizard tower, one shot can directly destroy the energy field and the tower!

Its power is completely different from the pulse cannon installed in an ordinary large wizard tower!

However, such amazing power also brings amazing energy consumption.

Even with the energy supply of the simplified element furnace, it can only support the pulse cannon type III to fire three times at most.

After three times, the remaining energy is less than 10%, and it basically loses its combat effectiveness.

Sunan and Liz mentioned the power of the pulse cannon type III. Hearing that this new weapon has been completed, Liz's eyes can't help but light up slightly.

"With this weapon, we can change the current stalemate."

Su Nan nodded slightly, and then said: "In fact, considering the cost-effectiveness, the pulse cannon type III wastes some energy. If the power of the pulse cannon type III is appropriately reduced, other turrets are upgraded and improved, and the energy force field is used to fight steadily on the battlefield, the results achieved will definitely be better than simply using the pulse cannon type III."

The pulse cannon type III is powerful, but it only has three tricks, after which the Starlight Wizard Tower basically loses its combat effectiveness.

If the energy consumed by the three pulse cannon type III is used more evenly in attack and defense, the Starlight Wizard Tower will surely achieve more brilliant results in a single battle than destroying three wizard towers.

However, to achieve this level, other facilities of the Starlight Wizard Tower must be further transformed.

The time is too short, and Su Nan does not have time to upgrade and transform in all aspects, so this method can only be used.

Not long after, Sunan completed the last bit of adjustment and ordered Tower Spirit No. 3 to control the golem to carry away the turret and install it in the wizard tower, and then asked Liz:

"How is the recent battle situation?"

"It's going well. Sherman and Atil have just seized a small wizard tower. It will take a few months to repair it, and we can get another wizard tower."

"What about the losses of the ground army?"

"We have sufficient resources. Golem puppets can be manufactured continuously. The loss of the golem army is not large. The wolf pack has suffered a lot of losses in recent fierce battles. The death rate of black wolves has far exceeded the hatching rate."

"What about the losses of the Black Soto Tower?"

Lize said without thinking: "It's more than us."

The Ulan plane has no biological nests, and it is impossible to extract a lot of profits from the magic stone trade like the Star Alliance. Relying solely on the resources supplied by this plane and the headquarters, it is absolutely impossible to be as crazy as the Star Alliance. The army will die a little less.

As time goes by, the military strength of both sides will only gradually increase.

Even without the Pulse Cannon III, Sunan believed that after a hundred years, the Star Alliance would be able to gain an overall advantage in the war.

When the wizard civil war is over, maybe they can capture the Ulan plane.

But he didn't want to wait until then.

"It's time to increase the offensive." Sunan said.

Lizhe said solemnly: "We have found the location of Ulan City. It is more than 5,000 kilometers southwest of the occupied area. As long as we attack there, we will definitely force the garrison of the Ulan plane to fight us head-on. Once we capture Ulan City and destroy the command center, the enemy will fall into chaos in a short time."

Sunan said without hesitation: "Then attack Ulan City!"

As the order was issued, the Cold Wind City quickly became lively.

A large number of magic ships and star fortresses set out from Cold Wind City, guarding the wizard tower and heading straight for Ulan City.

Tens of thousands of ground troops also marched to Ulan City in a mighty manner.

Wulan City was the first to learn of the Star Alliance's actions. While mobilizing troops to prepare for the battle, it also convened senior officials to discuss strategies.

"What is the Star Alliance planning to do?"

"Are they planning to capture Wulan City?"

"Unlikely, they have tried before."

In the past year or so, the Star Alliance and Wulan City have also had several full-scale battles, but both sides could not do anything to each other, and they just lost troops in vain.

Therefore, the Star Alliance has been advancing with more advantageous ground troops most of the time, and recently it has rarely deployed a large number of war creations at the same time.

Now that the Star Alliance has suddenly come to such a battle, it is really confusing.

Luke raised his hand to interrupt the conversation of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "No matter what the purpose of the Star Alliance is, since they want to fight, we can't retreat. Wulan City is our base camp. Are they afraid of the Star Alliance?"

Everyone thought so, so they stopped struggling and asked for battle.

Soon, many wizard towers and black rope giant ships rose above Wulan City.

At the same time, a large number of golem puppets and knights also poured out of the city, deployed troops on the plains, and waited in full battle array.

The golem army was located in the center of the array, and on both sides were countless knights riding on beasts that looked like horses but had scales on their limbs.

These powerful knights were dressed in fine armor, holding fine steel swords, with high morale and exuding awe-inspiring pressure.

"Is that the Fire Scale Knight of Ulan City?"

In the wizard tower, Sunan looked at the elite cavalry regiment displayed on the light screen with an interested expression.

In the past year or so, he spent most of his time on the synthetic pulse cannon, and occasionally paid attention to the battle situation, which was also a major strategic direction. He rarely set foot on the battlefield. This was the first time he saw the Fire Scale Knights.

"That's right." Liz said, "These fire scale knights have the power of a great knight, and the fire scale beasts they ride are no weaker than black rock leopards, and all of them are equipped with magic pattern structures, and their combat power is not much different from that of magic pattern knights."

The knight corps cultivated by the wizard forces are basically equipped with magic pattern structures and exotic beast mounts, and they generally have legendary combat power.

The magic pattern knights of the Star Alliance are not unique. If there is any advantage, it is that the proportion of knights equipped with second- and third-level magic pattern structures is higher.

After all, the military expenditure invested is enough!

In the interval between Sunan and Liz's conversation, the Star Alliance army had completed its rest and formation.

Seeing this, Sunan immediately issued an attack order.

Woo!

The loud horn sounded and spread across the plain.

As the sound echoed, the Star Alliance army began to advance slowly, like a huge beast crushing over.

At the same time.

A deep and low voice sounded above the head of the Ulan City army.

"attack!"

The next moment, war drums were beating on the wall of Ulan City.

The army began to move slowly, gradually accelerated, and bravely faced the enemy with an overwhelming momentum.

The two armies collided fiercely like two raging torrents. In an instant, blood spurted out and bones, flesh and limbs were scattered everywhere!

Deafening shouts of killing suddenly rose into the sky!

Looking down from a high altitude, the front rows of both armies were already in a melee, fighting like a meat grinder!

At the same time, the war creations high in the sky also began to fight, pouring artillery rays towards each other.

Almost as soon as they met, dozens of magic ships on the Covenant side collapsed and disintegrated.

In the Black Sol Tower, a huge Black Sol ship fell to the ground while burning.

Looking at the Covenant's lineup, which had no obvious difference from the previous lineup, Luke's eyes flashed with confusion.

He also thought that Xing Meng took the initiative to attack Ulan City because he had some trump card, but looking at the opponent's lineup, it didn't look like it.

"It's probably just a test by the Covenant."

Luke was completely relieved and concentrated on directing the battle.

The Star Alliance's recent offensive has become more and more fierce. Since the other party has taken the initiative to come to the door today, it must take this opportunity to weaken the other party's strength.

But while the war was in full swing, the Starlight Wizard Tower stayed at the very back, suspended high in the sky motionless, without any sign of movement.

Su Nan stared at the wizard tower in the distance for a moment.

It was a large wizard tower, with the surrounding wizard towers faintly guarding it like stars over the moon in the middle, even another large wizard tower was no exception.

If nothing else, the people staying in the wizard tower should be the top officials of Ulan City.

Su Nan waited patiently, watching as the ray cannon fire passed through the array composed of the wizard tower and the black cable ship, falling on the large wizard tower from time to time, consuming the durability of the energy field bit by bit.

Guessing that it was almost done, he finally gave the order.

"No. 1, activate pulse cannon type III!"

[After receiving the order, activate the pulse cannon type III. 】

Dots of starlight suddenly appeared on the top of the Starlight Wizard Tower. The light expanded rapidly and turned into a dazzling light cluster like the sun.

The next second, an extremely bright light suddenly shot out, penetrating the void like lightning, spanning thousands of meters in the blink of an eye, and accurately hit the large wizard tower that was heavily guarded!

Under everyone's horrified eyes, the energy field around the large wizard tower was distorted for a moment, and then suddenly collapsed!

"How is that possible?!"

Looking at this scene, Luke suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost. (End of chapter)
