Chapter 29 - Episode 11 Battle Situation_2
www.cmfu.com发布 "First Cavalry Squad, prepare! Everyone else, find cover! Archers, be ready to fire at any time!" Three commands quickly transmitted to all units with the changing of flags atop the castle.
www.cmfu.com发布 The Giants' catapult attacks were still ongoing. Due to the long distance, these attacks weren't causing significant damage to the walls; however, the gigantic catapults exposed in the open were suffering devastating blows. After dozens of rounds, not a single long-range catapult from Moon Harbor City remained.
www.cmfu.com发布 A whistling stone flew toward the Duke's residence, entered through a second-floor window, and on its path overturned countless precious vessels and decorations, tore through a valuable painting worth tens of thousands of Gold Coins, and exited on the other side of the house. Numerous things collided with each other, making crashing sounds. In the rubble, a figure in a black robe slowly stood up.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Cough, cough..." Lynch clutched his chest, struggling against the ruins of the wall, slowly standing up. The dust from the perforated room choked the mage, making him cough uncontrollably.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Damn it, I didn't expect Kuziman to be so formidable. I thought he was only on par with Master Caso." Lynch pulled his Magic Wand from under the collapsed table, brushed the dust off his head with a wave. "These mages specializing in transformation are really hard to deal with. Luckily, I have a life-saving ring." Lynch took off a gold ring from the pinky of his right hand, gently stroked it twice, and put it into his pocket.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Now I've got a grudge with this Great Mage; I wonder if the Mage Guild will protect me." Lynch tilted his head in thought, but his train of thought was interrupted by the sudden sounds of shouting and killing from outside.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Oh no, I wonder how the battle is going!" Lynch ran out of the Duke's estate but due to weakness, he spat a few mouthfuls of blood, had no choice, called over a nearby soldier to support himself as he staggered toward the wall.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Archers ready! Fire!" Knight Macken was commanding the army of archers to launch a continuous assault on the charging Giants, the sky dark with arrows, each whistling as they cut through the air toward the Giants approaching the wall.
www.cmfu.com发布 At this time, the enemy finally brought out the wooden shields they had hastily crafted over the past few days. They were very crude, merely entire tree trunks cut into straight strips, lined up and bound together with long vines. But that massive size efficiently blocked the archers' attacks, each arrow embedding only like a hair on its surface.

www.cmfu.com发布 The only effective aspect was the flames on the arrows that were attempting to set these wooden shields alight. However, it was estimated that by the time this enormous shield was ignited, the Giants would already have reached the wall.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Heavy Cavalry, charge! Archers, shoot at an angle!" Knight Macken couldn't possibly allow the Giants to approach the wall easily, so he sent out Moon Harbor City's strongest heavy cavalry reserve. This unit consisted entirely of Paladins, the strongest defensive force from the Pate Temple. But due to their heavy load and lack of agility, they were not suitable for long-distance charges, generally used as a reserve to break enemy ranks.
www.cmfu.com发布 Moon Harbor City's three main gates were simultaneously opened, and three torrents of steel burst from the towering walls. After a brief assembly in the clearing before the gate, the heavy cavalry squad launched their charge.
www.cmfu.com发布 Simultaneously, various auxiliary Divine Arts were used during this cavalry charge, as Paladins, blessed by the gods, could use some spells to enhance their abilities.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Holy Pate! Glory Pate!" The cavalry raised their lances, forming a tight charging phalanx, advancing toward the Giants' position.
www.cmfu.com发布 "Don't charge, call them back quickly!" Lynch finally saw the intense state of battle at the Pate Temple, shouting urgently to Knight Macken not far away. After this loud shout, his body tilted, almost falling to the ground.
www.cmfu.com发布 This loud shout was drowned in the chaotic noise of the battlefield. In such an environment, no information could be conveyed without using flags.
