Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 451 The general attack begins

"Are those mages about to launch a general attack?"

Roy looked for a while, then turned and walked towards the teacher's castle.

Several other wizards guarding the city also saw this scene and rushed over.

"I understand. Gemu has finally completed all deployments and wants to initiate the final battle.

The difficult moment of the battle to defend the Royal City has finally arrived. Whether we can survive this depends on our performance in the future."

Frost sat on the throne above the hall, his face expressionless as he spoke to the people who had come.

"Don't worry, just stick to your posts as you have in the past..."

I will take care of the Mage Tower!"

Roy carefully observed the teacher's expression and vaguely detected a hint of solemnity between his brows.

However, since he had given such an order, everyone quickly returned to their posts and performed their duties faithfully.

At least before the royal city is completely destroyed, they are still deployed under the command and have to fulfill their final obligation to the battle here.

……

Not long after, the Mage Tower slowly landed on a mountain more than 10 kilometers south of the city, still floating in the air, overlooking the royal city from a high vantage point.

The mage corps on the front line did not rush to attack, but gathered their troops, just like a person putting five fingers together to form a fist, and began to accumulate strength.

Both sides understood that once they gained a foothold, a shocking battle would immediately ensue.

Sure enough, the next morning, the alarm bells rang in the watchtower.

They found that a large number of troops were gathering and marching towards them in several groups.

Roy arrived at the top of the city wall early to watch, but he saw that the southern suburbs of the city, which had long been razed to the ground by artillery fire, were filled with low-hanging dark clouds, surging air waves, and a rainbow light like a mirage.

That was the scene of highly concentrated elemental power reflected in the air.

This special spectrum is extracted from mana and, after being refracted by sunlight, will show different colors such as red, yellow, orange, and green according to their respective properties, just like the magical aura seen by the Eye of Hermes.

What is more conspicuous are the self-propelled cannons lined up in the rear.

Their eight mechanical legs move flexibly and alternately like spiders, shuttling between the rocks.

The mechanical wheel underneath demonstrates excellent suspension stability, and the muzzle is always pointed towards the distant city.

Each of these steel monsters is the size of a tank and has firepower comparable to that of a first-level wizard.

And below them were heavy armored knights, ground dragon knights, human infantry, magic swordsmen, magic musketeers...

All of them were in neat military formation and in strict formation.

In the sky, Griffin Riders, Dragonhawk Riders...

In addition, there are water elements, fire elements, wind elements, thunder elements, earth elements...

"How majestic and magnificent..."

Wen En, who had no experience, was stunned.

"It's just some random soldier from the 'International Brand'."

When Roy saw this, he curled his lips.

What era is this? Are we still playing with infantry-tank coordination?
However, this is not because the mages do not know how to make progress, but because the development conditions of the major arcane empires are different, and the resources that they are good at and fully utilize also have their own advantages.

Some of them are good, such as self-propelled artillery and heavily armored knights fighting together...

It's also out of helplessness.

Take the simplest example. A great wizard is not born a great wizard. Before he is promoted, he is only a low-level wizard, or even an apprentice wizard.

The magic plate armor and magic muskets that I spent so much money on...

The achievements of the territory's development over several decades or even hundreds of years...

I can't just not use it, right? I can only bite the bullet and find some soldiers who can eat three bowls of rice a day to wear and use it.

But later he became rich and got a lot of advanced self-propelled artillery and element pools from somewhere.

If any of your subordinates who are good at taming dragon eagles and griffins come to surrender...

It's impossible not to use it, right?
Even Roy himself was surrounded by both dark elves and nuns...

They are all constantly replaced by the old and brought under your command during the long life process.

In front of this, there are a bunch of centaur golems and temple guard spearmen.

Aren't we starting to turn to the magic light cannon now?

This is called "historical legacy"...

As soon as he found the opportunity, he dealt them directly to Andov.

Therefore, Roy did not pay much attention to these types of troops and soon turned his gaze to the distance.

As expected, a large number of Sky Patrol Shuttles, Arcane Guards, and Roc-Winged Angels were dispatched from the Mage Tower...

Behind this, the "Arcane Military Police", which can be called a war machine, was dispatched.

That was also a kind of golem, looking like a tall and mighty wizard-like mecha, as huge as a high-rise building.

But unlike the golems forged by witchcraft, it is a typical arcane creation, the technological crystallization of the magic industry!
"Level 3 Golem..."

Roy narrowed his eyes slightly.

The number of aircraft dispatched by the other side was as many as eight.

This is not all the property of Grand Wizard Gem himself, but a joint donation from various forces.

For example, the Reines family and the Viken family each produced two aircraft.

"This...what should I do?"

Although Wen En was not very clear about the specific situation of those golems, he couldn't help but feel his body stiff and his legs trembling when he saw this scene.

"The real trouble is yet to come!"

Roy's eyes swept across these majestic-looking golems, but he was paying close attention to the wizard tower itself further behind.

This wizard tower is more than 350 meters in size, and its pure white body shines with metallic luster in the sun.

It is also a golem itself, and a giant golem of the "Giant God" level!

Wizards and mages generally refer to golems above 3 meters and below 10 meters as large golems. Generally speaking, they can accumulate the source of magic power and corresponding templates of the second-level constructs. (Below this are medium and medium-large)

Those between 30 meters and 100 meters can be called super-large.

That is the scale of 10 to 30 floors, corresponding to the third-level construct magic source and template.

Those that are over 300 meters in size, comparable to a 100-story building, are considered giants and are also known as "Giant God Soldiers".

Generally speaking, this is the scale of the magic source of a fourth-level construct!
As for "super-giant" structures exceeding 1000 meters in size, very few of them develop in this direction.

After all, driving a huge puppet consumes a huge amount of energy.

Instead of simply focusing on size and scale after overcoming technical barriers, it would be better to explore technologies such as "folding space".

Therefore, a wizard tower of this scale is itself the crystallization of high magic technology.

Sometimes, huge size is actually a sign of backward technology, and it also involves consideration of factors such as construction cost.

However, even if it is not famous for its mobile combat, the solid defense and abundant energy reserves it can provide will be a solid backing for large-scale legions.

The fourth-level source of magic it carries can provide all spell amplifications from 0 to 9 levels.

The rainbow-like light that everyone had seen before was the manifestation of the invisible power amplified by this spell!
