Chapter 366 -354: The Approaching Decisive Battle!
The attack came very suddenly, based on the intelligence they had previously received, to manufacture a new batch of siege weapons, even with the use of Divine Arts, it would take at least half a month.
Under the cover of night, the church’s punitive army quietly reached less than two kilometers from the city gates.
The loud holy hymns ceased abruptly, and a cardinal at the forefront of the Priest group spread his arms, and the light of Divine Arts immediately blossomed outside the city!
[Summon—Guardians of the Divine Kingdom]
In an instant, the earth shook and trembled as seventy armored stone giants, each reaching five meters in height, burst forth from the ground, holding massive, sturdy shields before them.
From their hollow mouths came a forceful roar, and then they took heavy steps, charging towards the city walls.
...
“Quickly send someone to inform Dean Lynn!” Sanchez called out loudly, not daring to delay, then turned his head towards the stunned crowd and shouted, “What are you waiting for?
Get the electromagnetic cannons ready!”
Under the control of several Wizards, the seven electromagnetic cannons mounted on the city gates let out several thunderous booms.
Seven dazzling streaks of light shot out, aimed directly at the giant stone statues, and the powerful cannon projectiles immediately collided with the thick earthen shields.
Like passing through a thin sheet of paper, accompanied by a grating explosion, the solid earthen shields immediately crumbled, and the red-hot projectiles hit the Guardians of the Divine Kingdom behind them, exploding violently and shattering the upper halves of the statues.
However, almost instantly, six of the seven damaged statues began to self-repair, even though they had only half a body left, they did not stop their charge.
“Aim for the core in the abdomen, that’s where the core is!” Yoland, with his sharp eyes, immediately spotted the problem and reminded loudly, one of the destroyed statues was hit precisely through its center by the electromagnetic cannon and completely disintegrated.
The gunners immediately adjusted their aim, but now, in the dead of night with poor visibility, it was difficult to hit the running Guardians of the Divine Kingdom behind the shields, especially to hit the core accurately.
After five rounds of electromagnetic cannon fire, only ten Guardians of the Divine Kingdom were eliminated, and the rest had already charged into the range of the artillery.
The continuous sounds of cannon fire echoed without end, and nearly a hundred cannons bombarded the giant statues, though much weaker than the electromagnetic cannons.
Even with a direct hit, they could only slightly hinder their momentum…
It took three to five cannonballs to hit simultaneously to take down or scatter one of the Guardians of the Divine Kingdom.
Under the protection of the great shield-bearing stone giants, tens of thousands from the church’s punitive troops charged as well!
“Kill these blasphemers!” “For glory!
For victory!” “God is with us!”
The war drums sounded like thunder, frenzied roars echoed across the battlefield, and under the illumination of fire, tens of thousands from the church’s punitive army surged forward like a black tide toward the frontline.
The imposing city walls seemed like an island afloat on a vast ocean, as if they would be submerged in an instant.
Ham and others on the city wall felt their scalps tingle, their muskets firing incessantly, constantly cycling through shooting, reloading, aiming, and firing again.
However, hampered by the poor visibility at night, most could only shoot blindly in the direction of the approaching enemy, which clearly couldn’t stop the punitive army enhanced with Divine Arts.
Before long, the large stone statues at the forefront and the over twenty thousand noble allies behind them were less than two hundred meters from the city gates!
The situation had reached a critical moment…
Just then, two hundred official Wizards stepped forward in unison and cast their spells.
The allied soldiers who were about to rush to the city walls suddenly felt the solid ground beneath their feet collapse, revealing a dark abyss below, with the sharp spikes at the bottom faintly visible.
The width was a full twenty meters, and the depth exceeded fifteen meters!
This was the third circle of Magic—the Earth Sinking Technique!
However, this Magic alone would clearly not be enough to create a pit around the entire city wall.
These traps had been dug out beforehand, and then the Elemental Wizards had created a layer of earth and stone that was not very thick as a cover.
In the previous battle, since the intensity of the war was limited, they had refrained from using this trap, all for the sake of this moment!
The more than two thousand allied soldiers who had rushed to the forefront all fell into the pit, some dying on the spot, and others pierced through by the sharp spikes.
The massive Divine Kingdom’s Guards were no exception, with nearly half of them trapped in the pits and struggling for a long time to crawl out.
The traps prepared in advance effectively halted the attack of the punitive force and brought a brief respite for the defenders on the wall.
But before Sanchez and the others could breathe a sigh of relief, the pit created by the Earth Sinking Technique was breached.
Streams of emerald branches emerged from the earth, glowing with the light of Divine Arts, intertwining like vines to form dozens of robust, short-term bomb-resistant Divine Art bridges.
It was the action of the bishops!
Not only that, but countless flickering lights lit up the dark battlefield, converging into a terrifying energy wave that sped towards them.
Under the violent explosion and energy impact, the Magic Barrier protecting the defenders on the wall shattered…
The numerous Divine Kingdom’s Guards, as well as the fierce assault of the punitive force, all had but one goal—to cover for the bishops to enter the range of their Divine Arts!
Realizing this, Sanchez instantly understood the most difficult moment had arrived.
Fortunately, the time they had fought for was not meaningless, as the guards on the walls had increased from the initial eight thousand to twenty-five thousand, half of them gunners and the other half the royal guards.
Even so, they needed even more support!
Because the Griffin Knights in the sky were also in position, and the fiery rain fell once more!
…
As the frontal assault commenced, Pulson, who had already infiltrated the royal capital, had begun to make his move.
A large number of Hidden Guards took advantage of the chaos and cover of night to start removing guards from the streets and, at Pulson’s command, split into two groups.
One part went to the prisons to rescue the captured Arno, while the other quietly headed towards the most heavily guarded Alchemy Research Institute in the royal capital!

Moreover, the elite of the church, a large number of Punishment Armies, had also arrived in the royal capital through secret passages, led by Edwell himself, determined to break through from the inside and decide the outcome of the battle in one go!
