Chapter 480: Hypocrisy (Part 1)

Salin had no pleasure in his heart. He was a little nervous. Under his command, the magician took turns to attack the nine magic towers in the city. These nine magic towers were basically concentrated in the center of the city. This was an ancient design, and the Skochenya did not make any changes. If his elemental magic tower lowered its suspension height, he would suffer a fatal attack.

On the first floor of the Magic Tower, the little Skochenya nobles were so scared that they were urinating. The Elemental Magic Tower attacked Ironbi City in the air. The scene was too spectacular. In the center of Ironbi City, there were elemental stone statue soldiers destroying the building, and the Orange and Red Knights setting fires on the outside.

In the Iron Bicheng, the sound of the building collapse was too loud. When it reached the altitude, it felt a little shocking. Salin asked the voice to be clearly sent into the magic tower to scare these little nobles.

Viscount Guge was right. These little nobles lived there for more than ten or even dozens of generations, and had a very thorough control over the people. It was wrong to kill them all, so it would be best to make these people surrender. After this battle, Salin believed that these little nobles had no choice.

Of course, there are troops dispatched in the city, but even if there are strong people in the army, they are unwilling to intercept the orange-red knights and elemental stone statue soldiers. The big guy who is 100 meters tall will hit him with one punch, which will be a fatal attack. Cavalry and infantry are the same concept for elemental creatures, and you can step on them with your feet to death.

Salin let go of his methods and had no scruples anymore. He simply used these elemental creatures to attract the attention of the Magic Tower, leaving the Magic Tower with no time to fight back, attacking up and down, and the nine Magic Towers were actually restrained by him.

Compared with the strength of the two sides, Salin is still slightly stronger, but nine magic towers are arranged on lands of two miles in size. He has to suppress them all, which has taken a lot of extra effort. Fortunately, Salin brought thirty-six magicians, which is more than those in the Iron Wall City. He has released magic in turn, making the magic tower powerless to fight back. The elemental creatures attracted several magicians to attack, and Salin has been even more relaxed.

The army in the city had two eight-level mercenary groups. When they saw the phantoms of up to 1,000 meters in the sky, they immediately realized that something was wrong. They began to assemble troops to protect their families and retreat. The city could not be defended, and the enemy did not care about the life or death of ordinary people. Those magic would not avoid residential areas. They threw them down without any purpose and destroyed the buildings in pieces.

The credibility of the mercenaries is based on living. The families of these mercenaries are all in Tiebi City and will defend the situation. Seeing this, the mercenaries were the first to shake. Two mercenaries of 10,000 people organized a retreat, and one of them broke through the small city gate to the south and escorted the family to leave.

Salin saw clearly in the air and asked the Orange Red Knight to bypass the small city gate and let the mercenary group go. The mage in another mercenary group could see clearly and immediately told the leader about the situation. The leader dared not hesitate and also killed the small gate. He simply asked the magician to burn the city gate and escape from the Iron Bicheng with his soldiers' families.

Seeing that these mercenaries were tactful, Salin let them have a way out. With these mercenaries as a demonstration, the people near the city gate began to escape. The army that came to stop was blocked by the Orange Red Knights. The city gate had been destroyed. There was no river outside the Tiebi City, and more and more people escaped, but compared with the entire Tiebi City, there were too few people who escaped.

A huge metal roar came from the sky. Hundreds of metal aircraft came to the sky above the Iron Bird City and began to throw magic flame bombs. The inside of the magic flame bomb was tinder oil, and the outer layer was wrapped in ordinary magic materials. As long as it fell to the ground, the magic materials were broken, and the magic potions inside would burn when they saw the air.

This magic flame bomb may belong to the category of first-level magic equipment, but its lethality is very terrible. When the magic flame bomb hits the ground and explodes, it will spray out viscous tincture oil, which can be attached to any object to burn. Even if it falls into a puddle, no one can temporarily suppress this fire except magic.

The doomsday of Iron Bicheng has arrived, and the mages in the city are concentrated in the magic tower. When elemental creatures appear, the mages who are still outside the magic tower are desperately rushing into the magic tower.

When the metal aircraft arrived, there were no magicians in the city, and all the mages gathered in the magic tower to fight against the attacks in the sky.

The flight altitude of metal aircraft is not low, but if you want to throw magic flame bombs, you must reduce the altitude to about 500 meters. Metal aircraft does not fly by wind elements, but uses metal wings to generate buoyancy and must be maintained at high speed to avoid falling to the ground.

It is precisely because of this that Salin desperately suppressed the magic tower in the city. Because the height of 500 meters is too unsafe, the attack distance of the nine-layer magic tower is one thousand to two thousand meters. The defense power of the metal aircraft is very low. If it is hit by the level 5 or above magic released by the magic tower, it will be directly damaged.

The fire in Ironbi City was connected into pieces, and Salin's orders were useless. The throwing locations he set for the soldiers on the metal aircraft were fixed, and there would be gaps to allow people in the fire to escape. However, as soon as the magic flame bomb burned, Pisalin imagined that the high temperature made all combustible objects burn, and some substances would only turn into flammable objects at high temperatures.

When the tincture oil burned, the temperature was higher than the flames created by low-level magic. In less than half an hour, the city center had become a sea of ​​fire. Only nine magic towers were safe and sound, protecting a small area.

At this time, the people in the city thought of escaping, but it was too late. The second wave of metal aircraft arrived and threw countless magic flame bombs on the edge of the city.

Only a few metal aircraft crashed. They were the army in the city, firing magic stone cannons into the air. The scattered sprite stone bombs hit the metal aircraft. As long as the wings were destroyed, these metal aircraft would never fly again and plunge head to the ground. The magic flame bombs carried in the metal aircraft exploded at the same time, causing greater casualties.

Salin had no time to worry about this at this time. Although the amount of damage to the metal aircraft was slow, once he relaxed his suppression of the magic tower, all the metal aircraft passing over the Iron Wall City could not escape the magic attack. At this time, Salin had no other thoughts except to destroy the enemy.

This is the essence of war, destroying.

In the Elemental Magic Tower, seventy-five Skochenya nobles completely collapsed. The Ironbi City was burned in front of their eyes. The fire spreads and thick smoke floats upwards. If the Qifeng Longwu had not been using the wind magic to dispel the clouds and smoke, there would have been nowhere to be seen here.

Is this still a war? If the war in the future becomes like this, the glory of the nobles will no longer exist. A powerful magician will participate in the war and destroy the enemy's cities. Who else can withstand such a threat?

The third wave of metal aircraft arrived and continued to throw magic flame bombs into the Iron Wall City. The defense in the city completely collapsed. Except for the magic tower, no one tried to resist. Everyone was fleeing to the city, including the army guarding the city walls.

Except for Neris, everyone's heart was very heavy, including the thirty-six magicians. Everyone felt that this attack was too cruel.

Salin's voice sounded in the magic tower: "I know everyone can't bear it, but we don't have much time. The Holy See's army will soon break through Qin Yin's border defense line. Yun Liuren will conquer Lianyun City. Many southern nobles must be independent. If Qin Yin only has the north, he will no longer be able to resist the joint attacks of the three empires. This time it was a warning, which made the Skochenya understand that the Kingdom of Metatrium cannot be touched. When the three empires sign a real covenant, our attacks will not scare them, and we really have no time..."

Salin's voice was a little tired. He couldn't stand such a war. The gap with his expected was too big. There were less than 100,000 people fleeing in the city except for the army.

This idea was made by Rex, but did he have no responsibility? He cheered up the magicians, and the pressure on his wife was not small at all. Salin could kill dozens or hundreds of people without any scruples, but slaughtering millions of people is not something he, a level nine magician, could bear.

The reality and imagination are always very different. Salin thought he could ignore all this, but now he really wants to fly away immediately and never watch this damn land again.

"Master, people are always going to die. We demons don't think of these messy things." Neris comforted Salin. She could feel how bad Salin was.

"Nelise, you don't understand."

"Why don't I understand? Humans are more cruel than demons. Otherwise, how could the demons follow humans and kill everywhere? Conquering planes sounds very heroic, but in fact, the people who die on every plane are hundreds of times that of today. Master, those who are killed are also humans, but they are not all monsters."

Seeing that Salin didn't speak, Neris said, "Master, remember the Grand Master. Look at him, do you think of you as a kind of person?"

Salin suddenly realized in his heart, yes, the Grand Master never regarded himself as his kind. If he could leave the cemetery, he would probably kill everyone on the Meles Continent.

Humans and gods are essentially the same.

"Nelise, this is not an excuse for me to kill." Salin was in a better mood, but could not let go.

"Master, I want me to say that it is normal for you to feel bad, so just take a closer look. When you advance to the level of transcendence of the gods, you will never feel the same as you are today."

Nicholas said next to him: "Lord, Nelise is right, so is the gods, treating selfless believers as lambs. One day, we reach that height and will become that way. Today, let everyone be sad."

Nicholas said Binalis thoroughly. What Salin is most sad now is the contradiction, the inner contradiction.

Because he wanted to conquer the mainland, he probably had to do such a thing, but he didn't want to do it anymore.
