Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 275: Artillery position

   "Hiss, this is really troublesome." After Yagoda noticed the expression on Lawrence's face, he turned his head and looked behind him. As a result, I was surprised to find that a huge barrier glowing with sky-blue light had risen in the direction of the palace, which looked like a soap bubble magnified by countless times.

"Why is it troublesome?" Lawrence sprinkled some potions on his wounds to promote the healing of his wounds, and then asked while sorting out the potions in his hands, "I think this magic barrier is very powerful, look at those The shells simply cannot hit what is behind the barrier."

"It is indeed impossible for ordinary cannonballs to penetrate that magical barrier, but the problem is that after the magical barrier is raised, in an ordinary cannonball attack, the high-level caster of the rebels can lock the magic a little bit according to the reaction of the magical barrier after being attacked. The magic points and magic circuits on the barrier are targeted to destroy them, so this kind of magic barrier can last for a few hours if there is no high-level spellcaster to preside over the countermeasures." Yagoda sees He explained to Lawrence after his wound was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"After all, this time the palace was attacked suddenly. I guess there are not enough casters inside to cover it up while the opponent's casters are investigating. Otherwise, it's impossible for the artillery to be hit by the one in the palace for so long. All the magic towers of the royal family fought back."

   At this point, Jagoda’s guess is not accurate. In fact, there have been several high-level spellcasters belonging to the royal family in secret in the royal family as the royal family’s last resort. But because the emperor is now in a coma, these spellcasters are trying their best to lift the curse on the royal family members, and they can't spare manpower to adjust the protective shield, they can only rely on the tower spirit of the magic tower to automatically respond.

   However, because the news of the emperor's coma must be tightly sealed, outsiders at this time just think that it is probably because the reinforcements of the Magic Association failed to enter the palace to strengthen the magic tower in the palace.

   As for the reason why the Magic Association did not move, it is also very simple. After all, this rebellion is at least different from the offensives of the wild races on the capital from the current public information. It belongs to an internal coup d'etat. Therefore, as a supranational organization mage association, it can only remain neutral in this matter. Similarly, these conditions also apply to the churches in the capital.

   But this does not mean that the churches or various extraordinary power organizations do nothing. After experiencing the initial panic, they unanimously established a large number of temporary protection areas near their premises to shelter ordinary people who escaped the war. And the rebels who were scattered and plundered also consciously stopped near those protected areas, because they knew that the transcendents of those organizations were not something they could deal with.

   Not to mention the paladins of many churches at this time, with the church as the center of the attack, beheading the rebel soldiers who are doing evil in the vicinity of the church. So these rebels will naturally try to stay away from churches or places like the Demon Hunter Guild.

   Of course, this is a good thing. It can allow more innocent citizens to avoid the harm caused by this chaos and minimize the loss of life and property.

The only exception is the court where Lawrence is now. Because the second prince who has mastered the rebellion used some forbidden magic and is likely to collude with evil forces, he was besieged by a large group of rebels, hoping to erase those belonging to the second prince. The prince ascended the obstacle on the road to the throne.

"Hey! What are you going to do now?" Amidst the sound of the shells, Lawrence wrapped up the wound of the new wounded with extremely stable hands. In a blink of an eye, he saw Jagoda standing next to him, so he hurriedly reached out and pressed his shoulders. Let him sit down. "Your wound hasn't healed yet."

The magic potion that Lawrence applied to his wound just now worked very well, but because the wound was a bit too deep, it was just a scar on the surface that completely stopped the blood. Normal walking should be no problem. But if you want to fight, the wound will soon open.

   This kind of medicine was bought from Fatina's grandfather before. It is a secret medicine unique to the rat people, and it has an excellent effect on this kind of wound that does not involve extraordinary power. But on the other hand, if the user does not have extraordinary power, this magic potion may cause excessive growth of the wound, so it is not suitable for ordinary people.

"I'm going to sign up for the next assault. I can't let the artillery continue to shoot so unscrupulously." Jagoda sat down again after Lawrence said, and said, "Your potions are indeed very powerful. I thought my wound was healed."

"This is obtained from the rat people. They basically only sell to friends of their own people and foreigners. So basically you can't see such good things on the market." Lawrence briefly explained and then just now. Asked about the topic. "You just said you want to destroy the enemy's artillery positions, what's the matter?"

   "After all, we have more than enough defense now, so we should also consider the overall situation." Jagoda said in a low voice after looking at no one else nearby. "The enemy who besieged us cut off the telegraph line we used for emergency communication and used some advanced magic props to hinder our external communication, but before the external communication was completely cut off, we got the judge of the personnel in the palace. Important information outgoing."

   "He told us that this rebellion was a somewhat rushed rebellion, and the second prince did not seem to be fully prepared. Therefore, this rebellion is impossible to succeed. We only need to hold on until the day the rebellion will naturally be suppressed."

   The judge in the palace naturally knew that the emperor only needed to wait 12 hours before dawn to wake up, and then came forward to disintegrate the rebels and put down the rebellion. But because he couldn't reveal the current situation of the emperor in a coma, he could only inform the headquarters of the current situation through this vague and vague sentence.

"How far is the enemy’s artillery position that bombarded the palace?" Lawrence asked with a frown. After all, many transcendents can easily shoot at targets one or two kilometers away with bows and arrows or muskets. At this time, they don’t attack the artillery. The position seems a little strange.

"The artillery position is five to six hundred meters away from us~lightnovelpub.net~ Yagoda, as the commando member who just led the team trying to get the artillery position away, knows all these things well, so he pointed to the distance. Said a group of darkness there. "But the problem is that the artillery position is set up in a residential area over there. "

   "Residential area? What's so special about that?" As a person who has only lived here for three days, he has no idea about the layout of the surrounding environment.

Jagoda also reacted when he heard Lawrence’s question. He quickly explained: “The residential area is a closed area surrounded by several buildings. The artillery position is set in the small garden in the center of the building and cut through the wall. The hole that exits is aimed directly at the palace. Our commando team has no way to break through the siege of the enemy defenders hiding in the room."

   "Are you saying that the opponent's artillery position is set up in a place surrounded by a circle of buildings?" Lawrence asked again. At this time, he remembered the boxes that he had loaded into the astral plane before he set off.

   "Not all, but the two most important 203mm heavy guns and six 155mm heavy guns of the rebels are all set in the small garden in that building."

   "If this is the case, I think I have a way to knock out those **** artillery." Lawrence said to Jagoda after thinking about it. "Before I came, I brought some new weapons that I prepared, and I think their effect is very good when facing this situation."
