- Chapter 804 - Steel and flesh
“This magnificent city will soon be hoisted with the flag of the empire.”
On the other side of the abyss, heavy breathing sounds were heard from under the steel mask.
Sir Smith, the chief of the King’s Blade, looked up at the towering walls and towers on the “other side” with great pride in his heart.
If there is anyone on the British side who is not so sad about the death of the Iron Duke, it is Sir Smith.
After all, the original Iron Duke is still young. Although he is the second heir to the Iron Duke, there is a younger Sir Joffrey in front of him. If nothing unexpected happens, his succession will not be used in this life.
Now, not only did the Iron Duke die, but his first heir, Sir Joffrey, the chief of the King’s Shield who was deeply trusted by the Queen, was also destroyed by the enemy’s female demon along with the King’s Shield.
So he is the rightful successor to the Iron Duke. As long as he wins this battle, he can go from an unknown little noble to the ranks of the most honorable people in the British Empire.
As for the destruction of the Iron Duke’s Armor, he thought it was insignificant. As long as the empire still needed this flag, it would definitely rebuild it at all costs. It would only take three or two years.
Boom——
Behind him, the artillery position on the hillside opened fire again.
The artillery fire bloomed on the enemy’s wall, like flowers in hell.
An armored turret was hit directly, but fortunately it was not the enemy’s giant siege cannon that hit it. The shell was bounced off the armor plate and exploded in mid-air.
Centurion Leon, who was hiding in the armored turret and aiming at the enemy on the opposite bank, was startled and cursed dirty words, and then fired a shot——However, he only saw the leader-like figure on the opposite bank, his shoulders tilted, and there was no effect.
“Even the ‘Beast Hunter’ made by Master Fenrir can’t cause any damage?”
Leon patted his beloved gun and began to wonder if he had forgotten to fill it with white crystal ammunition.
Baron Charles on the side sneered: “I said that your fire sticks are useless. The enemy is best at this stuff.”
On the other side, Smith, who was wearing iron armor, sneered. Although the King’s Blade is mainly for attack and not defense, since it is a tough battle, they don’t need to stick to tradition. Last night, he ordered all his soldiers to change into the spare armor of the King’s Shield – anyway, those unlucky guys can’t use it.
This kind of armor is not only mixed with anti-magic metal, but also engraved with magic arrays that have excellent defense against white crystals. As long as it is not bombarded with artillery, even magic guns are just a fire stick in front of it.
Taking advantage of the fact that the fortress artillery on the top of the city was suppressed by its own firepower, the armor plates on both sides of Sir Smith’s back separated, revealing a huge flame thruster.
At his command, dozens of King’s Blade teams flew to the top of the city with the help of flames.
Following closely behind were more than a dozen spellcasters, who chanted spells in unison. Ice and snow piled up under their feet, turning into bridges leading to the city wall on the other side. Hundreds of armored infantrymen and paladins stepped on the ice bridges and rushed up.
Boom–
The Texas defenders began to fight back. Hidden in the armor plate, the powerful fortress cannons collapsed the ice bridge with just one shot, and more than a dozen armored infantrymen on it fell into the abyss below.
“Quick, speed up!”
Colonel Smith’s scalp tingled. He had no doubt that his armor could withstand this shot. Except for the fallen Iron Duke, no individual weapon could resist this huge cannon.
These flying iron monsters have become living targets for the Texans. It is difficult for them to evade effectively in mid-air, and they can only rely on their solid armor to resist. However, the Texans quickly brought in small-caliber artillery, and from time to time, some unlucky people were hit by shells and fell into the abyss.
Boom——
The British army immediately launched fire suppression. They relied on temporary shelters to shoot at the top of the city while calling for artillery support from the rear. The firepower on the top of the city became sparse with the naked eye.
When the King’s Blades finally approached the city wall, they looked up and felt that a piece of grenade was falling like raindrops. I don’t know how those Texans still fought back under the cover of artillery fire.
Before Colonel Smith could curse loudly, he felt a huge force coming from the front, and countless shrapnel hit his armor plate like raindrops, and the whole person fell into the abyss like a cannonball.
“This group of self-righteous iron monsters.”
On the city wall, under a round of artillery fire, Leon and his guards, who were almost unscathed, looked at the falling enemies through the battlements with some pride. The British artillery fire was indeed fierce. Anyone facing such an attack would have to retreat into the bullet shelter.
Relying on the narrow firing range of the bullet shelter, it was good enough to be able to shoot back with the muzzle, and it was impossible to make a strong counterattack.
The reason why they could do this was all thanks to the mirror magic array arranged by Fringilla, which enabled the defenders of this wall to escape into Fring’s blood field at any time to hide from the enemy’s artillery fire, and wait until the enemy’s artillery fire stopped, and then they could immediately fight back.
Pah–
An iron hand suddenly clasped the edge of the city wall, and a Texas soldier guarding here picked up an iron hammer without hesitation and smashed it at the palm, but the iron hammer was grabbed by another iron hand before it fell.
Colonel Smith was filled with anger at this moment. Although it was a long journey, he finally climbed up the damn wall. Next, it was time to make these lowly Texans pay the price.
Swish–
The buzzing sound of the chainsaw sword sounded, and the oncoming Texan soldier was cut in half, with bones, blood, and flesh flying everywhere–afterwards, an angry roar sounded.
In front of Colonel Smith, there appeared a monster with red and black scales and a mouth full of fangs, like a dragon and a human.
He was shocked at first, but soon calmed down. Although the scales of this monster and the dragon were similar, the size of the two was too different. They were definitely not the same species–it looked more like the followers of the dragon in the legend, those who could harvest a bunch of dragon teeth soldiers by planting dragon teeth.
The monster opened its bloody mouth, and the flames condensed in its mouth. This posture was exactly the same as the Satan-like dragon yesterday!
The terrible memory made Smith no longer dare to underestimate the monster. He dodged in a hurry, but found that the monster only spit out a fireball with little power, so he rushed up with a two-handed sword.
Its light golden vertical pupils seemed to reveal a little mockery, which made Smith angry and picked up the chain saw sword and chopped it down fiercely.
Although Baron Charlie was Lothar’s first follower, he was only at the level of an elite centurion. His strength was similar to Hans and Veneto, but his hard power was reached, but his combat experience was not. He was even inferior to the two of them, and was not the opponent of the chief king’s sharp blade at all.
But seeing that the chain saw sword was about to cut off the blade in Baron Charlie’s hand, a gray wolf shadow knocked Colonel Smith out, and the two giants rolled on the city wall and fought together.
But following Colonel Smith, more king’s sharp blades began to climb the city wall. Although they looked quite embarrassed, only a few of them really fell into the abyss.

Others, even if they were blown away, mostly climbed on the rock wall and the city wall. With the powerful power of steam armor, they climbed up the city wall. Although it was a mass-produced model, it was also a derivative of the Iron Duke that even Lothar found extremely difficult. Its defense was simply not comparable to that of ordinary armored infantry.
Leon, and more than a dozen pure-blooded werewolves suddenly howled in unison.
On the open space on the city wall, blood shadows flashed. Kurs, Veneto, and Hans, along with more than a dozen elite centurions, were all teleported to this part of the city wall.
Veneto, who had been frustrated for a long time and had not gotten a chance to make a move, did not even say a word, and turned into a giant werewolf and took the lead in attacking. Hans sighed in his heart, but could only follow closely and attack.
“The old patriarch has already charged, brothers, go together!”
“The old patriarch is mighty, for Texas!”
The two sides fought in a group in the blink of an eye, and the entire wall became a meat grinder, with steel, flesh, and bones flying everywhere. The werewolves relied on their strong physique and abnormal regeneration ability to barely fight the steel creatures to a draw.
On the other side of the wall, the situation was not optimistic.
The first to climb the city were the enemy’s paladins. These fanatical holy warriors used the holy objects offered in various churches, which had a strong restraining effect on dark creatures. They covered the clergy who cast spells and advanced step by step.
They were probably the only ones who firmly believed that this battle was for justice, to purge all sinners bewitched by darkness, and it was a battle of redemption, just like the Crusades eight hundred years ago.
Clang——
A golden spear pierced the ground in front of the Paladin who was charging in the front. The holy light that was as surging as the sea was like a wall, blocking the footsteps of all the Paladins who were charging.
The female knight with a pair of light wings behind her stepped on the tail of the spear and looked down at the Paladins in front of her.
Her face was shrouded in the holy light, and it was a little blurry.
But someone still shouted out the name that was a taboo for the British at the first time.
“Knight Yao!”
Such a powerful, majestic, bright, and sacred holy light, the identity of the person coming is self-evident.
“Holy Spear Kungunir! Damn French, damn heretic witch!”
Behind the Paladin team.
The Grand Master of the Order of St. George roared furiously. When he heard that the long-lost Knight Yao of the Holy Knights led a part of the French Paladins to join the Texans, he felt thunderous and angry.
But this was not even one-tenth of the anger he felt when he saw the sacred weapon, which was shining with thousands of feet of brilliance, pointing at them to protect the darkness.
He angrily accused: “How dare you use the sacred weapon to protect the holy object of darkness and fight against our sacred army? Such blasphemy, don’t you, a heretic witch, have any sense of shame?”
Behind the visitor, the light wings fluttered lightly, and a smile appeared on her face: “If you say so, then so.”
“Anyway, wasn’t that how you wanted me to confess my guilt?”
She stepped on the holy spear, crossed her arms, and looked arrogant: “A heretic witch should do what a heretic witch should do.”
