Secret Dice - Chapter 338
Chapter 338 The beast is coming
Time passed by minute by minute, but Parami City was not quiet late at night.
The heavy firepower of the army was mobilized to a fortress ten kilometers west of the city. Such a large-scale mobilization could not be hidden from everyone’s eyes and ears. Rumors spread all over the city for a while, and many people speculated whether fanged dogs were attacking the city. , some people had even started to pack their things and prepare to leave the city to escape, but more people still gathered in the church town hall to seek explanation and shelter.
But obviously, they can’t get the truth, and they can’t even meet the senior officials of the Holy See.
At this moment, Bishop Jacob, Battle Sister Serena, and Paladin Hank, as well as Luo Jun and Ophelia, were not in the city, and they all went to the fortress to stand by.
It can be said that the top combat forces in the Holy See are all ready for the arrival of Mosayus.
At the same time, they are also paying close attention to the speed at which the positioning device moves.
“The light point suspected to be Mosayus is coming in a straight line at a constant speed, and it is still 200 kilometers away. The other light point has been hanging at a distance behind him, and it is advancing carefully while maintaining a certain distance. It should be monitoring its movements. Explore team members.”
After listening to the report, Jacob nodded, stood on the top of the fortress, looked to the west, and frowned.
Not far away, Luo Jun was seizing the time to adjust his inner breath and adapt to the state of rapid progress.
Looking around, I saw that various city defense equipment had been deployed on the top of the city. Large-caliber gun barrels were pointing westward. The operators were not even ordinary soldiers, but racks of steaming iron cans.
This kind of oversized urban defense equipment is difficult to maneuver flexibly by manpower.
There are two rows of self-propelled artillery parked on the ground outside the fortress. This kind of weapon is inferior to the huge city defense artillery in terms of power and size, but it is more flexible.
At the same time, there are several airships hovering in the sky, with two rows of powerful bombs hanging underneath, ready to bomb the enemy at any time.
All the soldiers did not know what kind of enemy they were about to face. They only knew that this was a battle related to the survival of Parami City. The military orders were like a mountain, and while they were speculating on the upcoming battle, they were finally adjusting their weapons.
Finally, when the sun slowly rose, the sun shone onto the earth from behind everyone, illuminating the golden desert all the way and reflecting a small cloud of dust on the distant horizon…
“Is that… the dust kicked up by the army? Or is it a sandstorm?”
Standing on a tower dozens of meters high, the horizon was less than ten kilometers away. Normally it should be very close. All the soldiers became nervous and began to control their weapons.
But Bishop Jacob showed a surprised expression. Not long ago, he reported that there were still two hundred kilometers left. How could he arrive so quickly?
“Report the distance again!” Jacob ordered.
“Well…there are still about one hundred and thirty kilometers…”
“Is it still so far away?” Jacob looked to the horizon in surprise. There, the cloud of dust was getting taller and expanding, but there was no sign of getting closer…
“Don’t think of your opponent as an army or a monster…” Luo Jun said: “Think about its size… It is like a mountain. What we see now is just the top of the mountain that has just emerged!”
“Mountain?” Jacob looked into the distance. Although he had long known that Mosaeus was astonishing in size, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he still had no concrete idea.
Is it a giant beast comparable to the mountains…
Soon, the soldiers also realized that something was wrong. The cloud of sand kept rising and getting bigger. From a small cloud at the beginning, it gradually turned into a sandstorm covering the sky, as if there was an illusory giant wall of wind and sand. The wall was slowly pushed forward, and the terrifying sense of oppression made the horizon look small!
“What exactly are we going to face…” The young officer Raymond’s eyes widened, and then he rushed up to the tower excitedly: “Your Majesty, please tell us, what exactly is our enemy!” “Honestly” “I don’t know very well.” The bishop looked at the positioning map: “What is the maximum range of your city defense cannon?”
“Range?” Raymond frowned, “In terms of elevation angle, the maximum range is about thirty-five kilometers, and the effective range is within ten kilometers.”
“Let’s all adjust to the angle with the furthest range.” Bishop Jacob advised: “Wait for my message and let’s fire together!”
“It’s difficult to ensure accuracy and power when projecting at a large elevation angle…” Raymond hesitated.
“If the kinetic energy is not enough, you can use high-explosive grenades.” Jacob looked at the growing dust in the distance: “As for accuracy, it is the least important thing to consider…”
Mosaeus moved very fast, and the huge dust soon had the effect of blocking the sky and the sun. The city defenders were trembling, and Raymond kept urging: “It’s not time to open fire yet.” The scope?”
“No…” Jacob looked at the light spot on the map, which was still forty kilometers away…
There are still dozens of kilometers to go, does this already feel like this…
Luo Jun was also a little shocked. According to estimates, Mosaeus is at least several thousand meters high. Coupled with the large amount of sand and dust covering its body, it seems to be nearly 10,000 meters in size!
This is not the altitude, but the actual height from its feet to the top of its head!
And this thing is not just like a mountain, with a sharp top and a wide bottom, but a whole big lump. The visual pressure is far stronger than the real mountain!
Numbers are the most honest, but they are also the most deceptive!
Thousands of thousands of meters, it sounds so easy to say, but when you really look at it, it’s not a concept at all!
Is this kind of monster really comparable to human power?
“Okay! We are thirty kilometers away!” Jacob immediately informed the city defense troops: “Fire!”
Boom, boom, boom!
The sound of city defense artillery came one after another. The artillery shells were fired at the farthest elevation angle, crossing a huge parabola, and were eventually submerged in the sand and dust without causing a single ripple…
“This…” Jacob was also a little dumbfounded. He never expected that the army’s firepower was so insignificant in front of Mosayus…
At this moment, several thick tornadoes suddenly hung in the distance, like spiral air columns connecting the sky and the earth. They began to revolve around the sandstorm, constantly sucking away the sand and dust!
“That’s the power of the Elemental Sect!” Battle Sister Serena said in surprise: “Who has a very strong wind attribute ability?”
“It’s not the elemental sect, it’s the Noble Phantasm.” Luo Jun knew that this must be the exploratory team’s move to stop Mosayus. There was no particularly powerful elemental sect in the team, so there was only one possibility.
Master’s Bagua refers to the tiger!
In the open nature, the Bagua Zhihu can actually exert such great power. It is worthy of being a mythical treasure!
The side view proves that Master is indeed safe and sound…
Just when Luo Jun breathed a sigh of relief, a notification sound suddenly came to his mind.
“Trigger mission: Stop Mosayus!”
