Chapter 16 (1/2)
16 – A Mechanical Legion Composed of 30,000 Bladed-Troops
After all 400 battle robots were swallowed by the enormous swamp field, the mysterious power faded away and the ground was back to normal.
“10m! Is this your limit? Bonney, my golem subordinates can easily handle this little bit of trouble!” Yang Feng smiled coldly as he waved his hand – the figures of 100 Bladed-troops appeared in a flash, as they quickly arrived at the place where the 400 Bladed-troops were swallowed, took out enormous shovels, and started thrusting them into the ground, digging the 400 Bladed-troops out of the ground.
After all, Bonney is merely a level-1 Warlock, even with the Warlock PaG.o.da’s help, the level-1 Swamp Field spell can only make those battle robots think approximately 10m into the ground.
If the opponent were to be a human, being buried 10m underground, would absolutely take their life. But as for the Bladed-troops, by being buried underground, they’re merely incapable of movement and won’t be destroyed.
“Attack!!” An officer above the wall loudly yelled.
Enormous catapults and heavy crossbows appeared above the wall.
7m long heavy bolts and enormous rocks weighing 2t were shot one after another towards the 100 Bladed-troops.
A heavy crossbow shot a Bladed-troop in the chest, directly bursting its upper body into countless pieces.
An enormous rock weighing 1t dropped from the sky directly towards a Bladed-troop, smas.h.i.+ng it.
Black City has the backing of the Warlock Group Black Cottage, as well as being more than a hundred times more prosperous than Giant-Stone City. Black City also has more than ten times as many heavy war weapons as Giant-Stone City.
The Bladed-troops were smashed and blasted into pieces, under the attack of the heavy war weapons.
Yang Feng was seeing how his Bladed-troops were wrecked by the heavy war weapons, without any change in his expression. Those level-4 Bladed-troops were of the lowest tech – as long as their remains were retrieved, then with a little bit of energy, they can be smelted and quickly manufactured anew.
No matter how many of the Bladed-troops are destroyed – as long as one wins, the remains can be retrieved and then used to once again manufacture Bladed-troops. It’s equivalent to having an immortal mechanical legion. That’s why Yang Feng can employ his mechanical Bladed-troops without any second thought – regardless of the death count, he still wouldn’t care.
“Fireball!”
After Black City’s heavy war weapons executed a few volleys of attack and destroyed a large amount of Bladed-troops – Bonney held out his hand and cast the level-1 spell Fireball. A shrub of fireball-like artillery flew from the Warlock PaG.o.da towards the remaining Bladed-troops, smas.h.i.+ng them one by one.
Seeing as the Bladed-troops were blown apart, the warriors above the Black City’s wall cheering in waves, raising the morale.<sup>1</sup>
“Truly powerful! Warlocks that possess Warlock PaG.o.das have access to unlimited firepower, jut like a human-shaped cannons! In addition, it’s like a multi-function human-shaped cannon. It seems that I have to get a bit more serious!”
Yang Feng looked as the Bladed-troops were smashed one by one, he slightly smiled and clapped his hands.
Bladed-troops slowly came out from within the thicket behind Yang Feng.
10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, 30,000, a whole 30,000 Bladed-troops appeared from behind Yang Feng – forming a dense mechanical legion, who’s bounds were basically impossible to see.
