Lord of Flames-Chapter 508: Battle started! The moment they fought, they would be pleasantly surprised!

Following that, the Son of Saint Purple Cloud made arrangements for the forbidden Magister. At the same time, a large number of bishops from other kingdoms were transported by sand boats to various parts of the army.

These bishops were responsible for praying to the gods.

After the arrangement, the distance between the two armies was reduced to five kilometers.

It looked like two black kelps that were over a hundred kilometers long were about to collide.

“Our catapults have an effective range of three kilometers. Send the order, advance another kilometer and launch the catapults, give them a big surprise!”Son of Saint Purple Cloud gave another order.

Now, among the Purple Cloud Empire’s army, there were no trebuchets. However, if you looked closely, you would find that there were at least a hundred meters between the front row and the second row.

At this distance of 100 meters, only a few soldiers were marching.

But these soldiers all had special magic bags.

That was the magic bag for the cart!

Through the magic bag, the long-range catapults were directly thrown into the battlefield, catching the enemy off guard.

Before Lin Yan transmigrated, the catapult in that world usually only had a range of three to four hundred meters. The distance was only seven to eight hundred meters.

However, the Purple Cloud Empire had used some magic to build a catapult, and its effective range could reach three kilometers. This was already terrifying.

These catapults did not throw stones.

It was a magic bullet. This kind of magic bullet was made of iron and could easily pass through the defensive formation. Once it exploded, its power would be great.

In the past war, the Purple Cloud Empire’s catapults could easily win the war every time.

After a few rounds, the battle formation in front of the enemy would collapse. After that, the Purple Cloud Empire would launch a charge and easily destroy the battle formation in front of the enemy.

The first row of battle formations were usually the strongest battle formations. It did not matter if one or two battle formations were defeated, but once they were all defeated, it would affect the later battle formations and lead to an overall defeat.

The simplest principle was that after the first row of battle formations was defeated, those soldiers who fled back would charge into their battle formations.

They were all on the same side. It was not good to kill them. If they did not kill them, the battle formation would allow them to charge into chaos and give the enemy an opportunity.

However, the Son of Saint Purple Cloud did not expect to see a large number of airships rise from the rear of the army of the Flame Empire as soon as the word “big surprise” fell.

The number of these flying ships was beyond imagination.

They were not big, but they were quite agile. In the blink of an eye, they flew past the army of the Flame Empire.

“Huh, why are there so many flying ships!”

Son of Saint Purple Cloud exclaimed.

The flying ships flew above the army of the Flame Empire and stopped.

Son of Saint Purple Cloud could clearly see that these flying ships had a large number of crossbows.

“Do they want to use these arrows to attack us?”Interesting, what kind of crossbow can shoot more than five kilometers? Even if we can dodge five kilometers, the shield in our hands is enough to block any strong crossbow.”

Next to the Son of Saint, the Great Prince of the Purple Cloud Empire spoke with disdain.

Then, the Great Prince saw the front of the crossbow bolts burning with flames.

“Flame? This is even more interesting.”

The Great Prince was disdainful.

Their soldiers held a heavy iron shield that was more than a centimeter thick. What kind of flame could not defend against such a heavy shield?

As for the penetrating power of these arrows, they were not to be feared.

Now that the two sides were still five kilometers apart, even if the arrow could fly five kilometers, it would still be as strong as possible.

Then, under the disdainful gaze of the Great Prince, the flying ships flamed their arrows.

In an instant, tens of thousands of arrows were flamed at the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation!

With a distance of five kilometers, these arrows only took a few seconds to arrive!

To the crossbow, such a fast speed only meant one thing.

It was the crossbow bolts that carried terrifying power and had terrifying penetration power.

In the second half of the flight, the rocket on the crossbow became even more intense.

For an ordinary flame, a crossbow arrow with such speed would have been blown out by the strong wind.

However, the explosive flames that Lin Yan’s godhead automatically bestowed would not.

The explosive flame was a Flame bestowed by Godhead.

Their characteristics were the same as Lin Yan’s flames.

That was, as long as the energy points were not exhausted, they would not go out.

Yes, the sub flame would only maintain the feature of not extinguishing the Flame for a short period. The energy consumption would be very small, but after a long time, the burning would still consume energy points and would still go out.

“Top shield!”

In the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation, all the commanders were shouting.

“Mock!”

All of a sudden, the soldiers in the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation raised their shields and blocked the attack. The entire process was completed in less than a second!

These soldiers were indeed trained.

“This speed, so fast!”

When Son of Saint Purple Cloud saw how fast the arrows were, he felt bad.

However, with such a wide range of crossbow bolts, even if Sanctum and the legends used all their spells, they could not be able to block much.

After all, this was a large battlefield that was over a hundred kilometers long.

And their reaction time was too short!

In the blink of an eye, all the arrows landed in the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation.

The defensive formation didn’t have much of a blocking effect on these arrows, and it couldn’t stop Explosive Blaze.

After all, Explosive Blaze looked harmless before it exploded.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

When the arrows landed in the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation, the flames exploded!

In their battle formation, a line of Flame that was over a hundred kilometers long appeared!

The explosive flames contained within the crossbow bolts were quite terrifying. Every crossbow had a warrior dedicated to praying for the explosive flames. A second rank warrior, once praying, his spiritual energy would be drawn out for a short period. It would take several days for him to recover.

One could imagine the power of these explosive flames.

The battle formation at the very front of the Purple Cloud Empire instantly exploded.

Even a heavy shield could not protect them!

But it was not over yet.

Then, the second round of crossbow bolts came again!

“Block them!”

Son of Saint Purple Cloud shouted.

He took the initiative to attack, and with a raise of his hand, he used powerful wind magic.

However, it was already too late. The arrows had arrived too quickly.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

A deafening explosion sounded again.

In the Purple Cloud Empire’s battle formation, the soldiers were blown up again.

But this was still not over.

Immediately, the third bolt came.

This time, the Magister of the Purple Cloud Empire finally moved, even Saint Gabriel moved.

As soon as Gabriel attacked, he displayed the might of a Saint.

However, the time was too short. Even he had only protected an area of less than ten kilometers.

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

“Boom!”

Although the third ballista bolt was blocked quite a bit, more than half of the bolts still fell, causing an explosion.

With just three rounds of crossbow bolts, the first battle formation of the Purple Cloud Empire, except for a few powerful knights of the Temple of God, was completely destroyed!

This was a huge surprise that was beyond Son of Saint Purple Cloud’s expectations.

“Rumble!”

Then, the ground began to shake.

The soldiers of the Flame Empire suddenly sped up and rushed over.

The way the Holy Son Purple Cloud had expected to deal with the Flame Empire was one step ahead of the Flame Empire. It was going to be used on them!
