Chapter 1036: Be under me or die

The way to recover morale was undoubtedly to win.

But the morale was low, not because they lost but because they saw they would lose.

So, to recover morale, he just had to let them see the hope of victory.

Annihilation version 2 cannons launched their first attack of the day.

Ten beast-like cannons didn’t attack the experts of Saint Light Hall, Yangos, or the Saintess. Their target was ten groups of ordinary Saint Light Hall warriors.

Ten areas were on the same horizon, each at a similar distance. When one looked from the walls, ten red flowers bloomed, and it was a visual hit.

This time, it was their turn to cheer. Their low morale was raised instantly.

Right. Ice Crystal Path was terrifying, but so what? Did Posthumous people have little weapons? Especially the cannons from another civilization. They didn’t think much when they were used to attack the Giant dragon and only knew that it was strong. But seeing them being used on ordinary warriors was a totally annihilation. That made them excited!

“If only we had more. If we also had 500, we would destroy them! We can even fire at the Power of the Gods!”

Hong Xiang slapped the wall and mumbled.

Cloud Peak members who heard him pouted.

Others might not know, but they knew how tough it was for them to craft these ten cannons.

They spent sleepless nights focusing purely on this, which took half a month. If Le Dayuan and the others weren’t evolved, they would have died from exhaustion.

This was Cloud Peak’s most advanced and strongest crystal cannon, which meant it was the most complicated.

When it reached such a stage, the materials consumed became more exquisite, and the manpower used would reach a terrifying number.

Without a super smith like Ye Zhongming at the back and without the faith that they had to battle a level nine expert supporting them. Without their infinite crystals, creating one cannon, much less ten, would be tough.

How long did it take Le Dayuan to craft these giant cannons in his last life? Based on what Ye Zhongming guessed, it took at least five years. When the other factions bought and used it, it would be seven to eight years. Moreover, in his last life, the cannons that could harm level nine lifeforms were just one or even half a level above this Annihilation model.

One could say that Ye Zhongming had led Cloud Peak and Le Dayuan and created a small miracle.

500 Annihilation model 2s? While ensuring that Cloud Peak’s other crafting assignments were done, three was already very efficient a month!

After all, even if Le Dayuan’s lab expanded to ensure the secrecy of the core technology, there were just so many core members. Even if the newbies had gone through layers of tests, the speed of the increase was still very slow. In this context, it was impossible to produce the cannons at scale.

The Imperial City’s counterattack suppressed Saint Light Hall’s cheers but didn’t stop them from attacking.

The barrier was gone, which meant that their overall attack would begin.

Although the air troops suffered a huge blow, there were still a sizeable amount of flying demon monsters. They grabbed stones and got close. Behind them were Bright Feather Squad’s air troops. The order of troops meant that the Imperial City’s air defense wasn’t too effective.

If they attacked the flying demon monsters at the front, the Bright Feather Squad troops could get close without any losses. Everyone knew how strong they were after many battles.

But if they attacked them, then the defense weapons and warriors would face the giant stones. They would definitely suffer losses and damaged equipment.

Attack them all? It was okay if there were only Saint Light Hall air troops. But don’t forget that their ground troops were more than those above. They had to ensure that the ground was stabilized. After deducting the needed firepower to settle the ground, they couldn't defend either group if they were to target all the air troops.

This generation of Posthumous people had no experience, and neither did Cloud Peak. The Cloud Peak defenses faced weak air troops, so their air defense problem wasn’t magnified.

“What is the Feather Warrior Squad’s main battle method?” Ye Zhongming asked suddenly.

“Ranged attacks, and then they will charge and get up close.”

“Attack the demon monsters with stones.”

When needed, one had to make choices. Ye Zhongming made his.

The weapons on the walls fired toward the demon monsters throwing stones.

The Saint Light Hall warriors roared. All their troops charged at the walls.

If one looked at the numbers, the number of Saint Light Hall warriors was fewer than the mutated lifeforms that surrounded Cloud Peak. But there was a huge difference between humans and evolved lifeforms.

Humans were more disciplined and knew how to coordinate. There were layers and more complicated strategies.

This is especially true for an old faction like Saint Light Hall. They had their understanding and ideals regarding siege, coordination, formation, weapon usage, demon monster control, etc.

All of that, added together, put huge pressure on the Imperial City.

The giant stones landed and there were still some flying demon monsters that got to the wall.

The Feather Warrior Squad started its first round of arrow suppression. They didn’t need much strength, and they could let the arrows descend.

The siege troops on the ground started to fire at the walls. Those trebuchets reached a suitable distance. The warriors secured them to the ground and placed pieces of stone into the stone baskets. A few of them started to fire.

The shield warriors raised the thick metal shields and pushed forward. Behind them was the death squad holding different siege weapons. As long as they arrived at the ice crystal path, they would launch a ferocious charge.

Stone and arrows landed on the walls. When the first Posthumous People warrior was killed, casualties started to arrive. Moreover, they became more common as the battle proceeded.

Both sides had to win so they wouldn’t back off. It even meant that the race destruction battle had begun.

On the other side of the Posthumous people’s territory, an old man held an unassuming wooden staff and stood before a demon monster with an orange crystal. He repeated the exact words twice.

“Be under me or die.”
