Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 445 The troops are approaching the city
"As expected, the mages came to attack.

From now on, the battle to defend the royal city begins.

Everyone must perform their duties and cooperate sincerely..."

In the castle.

Frost summoned his disciples and subordinates and assigned them tasks.

Currently, three of his wizards have died in battle, leaving seven.

They are Erlant, Roy, Tinas, Bethian, Donny, Brad, and Lime.

But as a wizard with extraordinary power, he didn't really care about the combat effectiveness of these people. He just hoped that they would use their own intelligence and talents to fully mobilize the troops.

It would be even better if, on this basis, I could become his tentacles, eyes and ears.

So after assigning the tasks, each legion was sent out.

“This is the Centaur Golem Legion I personally created during my time as Governor of Knightland.

It hasn't been refined into a "Shatlands Chess" piece yet...

But it should be more than enough for the defense of the city."

After saying that, he led everyone to the city wall in front.

The open space below was filled with tall and burly stone statues, which were indeed golem puppets created by witchcraft.

Roy led a legion called "Horn Fang Blade" from it.

There are 72 first-level puppets and 300 apprentice-level puppets here.

Most of them are basic blank slates, without any special abilities or skills.

But there are more than 10 that are close to the Bloodhoof Kaylon that he refined.

That is a soul that contains skill modules or heroic bloodlines, and has skills similar to "War Trample".

However, among them, there are almost no Pegasus Wings capable of air-to-air combat.

Almost all golems with the ability to fly are controlled by the teacher himself.

Roy vaguely guessed that it was for the time of a major counterattack, when they would use up all their cards and go all in.

He didn't care about that because the teacher then distributed anti-aircraft props such as magic light cannons.

Combined with the long-range firepower in the castle and the anti-aircraft capabilities in my hands, it should be more than enough to cope with it.

Roy did not expect that he could change the situation of the battle on his own, but he also did not think that the enemy would use all its forces to deal with him.

After thinking about it, the pressure they will face is just that of a legion under the control of one or two mages.

After returning, he still stayed in charge of the gem workshop, but the area under his control extended to the entire south of the city.

The defense there was entrusted to him by Frost.

The products of the gem workshop are also supplied to his own side first.

……

A few days later, at the city gate.

In front of the upper wall.

Roy watched from afar as a group of black war shuttles attacked from the sky, and a rapid alarm bell rang in his ears.

Immediately afterwards, the bomb was dropped.

Explosions sounded one after another, and many houses collapsed.

"Those damn mages!"

Next to them, the elite soldiers of the royal city guarding the city gate cursed inwardly.

This is a general who was born a centaur.

As a member of Knightland, he should have hated the wizards and other colonists, but after hundreds of years of rule, he had come to regard all this as normal.

Now, it is the wizards who lead them to resist the invasion.

The wizards controlled his family, his job, and his chances of survival and development.

So he has to fight to defend the city.

Faced with this high-tech bombardment, the technologically backward Centaurs were helpless. Fortunately, dozens of magic light cannons of varying powers were deployed in the south of the city and quickly launched a counterattack.

But those mages were very cunning. The air strike firepower they sent out was not the main force. They quickly adjusted the focus of the attack according to the deployment position of the magic light cannon.

In the distance, cannonballs roared in, bombarding towers and city walls with a range far exceeding that of ordinary spells.

Several squads on duty suffered heavy losses.

“We can’t keep going like this!

The magic technology of mages is far superior to that of wizards, and their three-dimensional combat capabilities transcend conventional spell systems."

Roy did not dare to leave the city easily and pursue the enemy deep into the distance alone.

Fortunately, the enemy's artillery shells will eventually be used up.

In the afternoon, during a lull in the artillery fire, he saw some centaurs coming over with buckets and shovels, stirring them like cement, creating the prototypes of flesh and blood fossils.

Then they were quickly stacked to create fortifications.

The new tower is formed, with powerful physical defense capabilities and decent magic resistance.

"Teacher has already trained a group of craftsmen who can surpass these abilities, but the activation and casting of the spells still has to be done by Errant or the teacher himself.

Not many ordinary apprentices can master this kind of magic."

Roy didn't want to become a bricklayer, so he didn't go to help.

However, he was not idle either. He enchanted a specially made javelin with the "Spirit Anchor".

In addition to the legion of golems, they also received a batch of combat supplies, including demonized gunpowder.

This time, Roy did not pocket the money, but instead invested all of it in actual combat.

at dusk.

When those patrolling war shuttles appeared again, he took out the Death Light Demon Eye that he had made himself, locked onto them from afar, and branded them with the mark of burning fire.

The next moment, he raised his arm with all his strength and threw the javelin.

"You have technology, I have witchcraft!"

Three war shuttles were shot down one after another!
……

On the other side, the position outside the city.

Mage Doria and Costa met in a makeshift camp.

This time, they learned their lesson thoroughly.

The hiding place is no longer an open-air forest, but a large cave with a deep entrance and a hidden world.

The natural soil layer provides a reliable shelter for the mages.

It is not impossible to flatten an entire mountain in one go, or even drill a hundred meters underground to attack the buildings and personnel inside, but it will increase the cost significantly.

This is no longer something that can be achieved with cheap stuff.

Whether they use arcane magic, witchcraft, or other technological creations, they cannot violate this simple theory of value.

“The wizard’s position is not so easy to attack.

The resources we have are limited, and we can’t spend them endlessly here…”

The two mages also talked about it when they summoned their trainee mages, other warrior leaders, and front-line commanders.

"Perhaps we should send out elite teams to carry out decapitation missions in addition to long-range attacks."

"But Frosev is in charge of the royal city. If a battle is triggered, there will be an immediate response."

"Let's wait until His Excellency the Grand Master arrives in person."

"Before this, it was only suitable for bombarding the royal city and long-range attacks."

Just then, a wizard with a sinister look walked in.

It was Chenos of the Wicken family.

"I received a remote communication from the Empire. My family requested that we capture or kill the first-level wizard Roy in this war if possible!
According to the report from the intelligence personnel we sent out, he was assigned to the South District, in charge of the defense of the south of the city!

Next, please make sure to focus on bombing this area. If I find an opportunity, I will personally take action."

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.

South of the city...

That’s fine too. It doesn’t matter where you hit.

We can focus on attacking the south of the city and take the opportunity to vent our anger on the Reines and Viken families.
