Chapter 1470: Chapter 857: The Gunfire under the Dragon’s Lair (Part 2)_1 Chapter 1470: Chapter 857: The Gunfire under the Dragon’s Lair (Part 2)_1 Boom! Boom! Boom!

The continuous and deafening cannon fire, even amidst the intense battlefield, still made the hearts tremble uncontrollably.

The rows of dark magic cannons, with their dazzling red lights, continuously flashed within the black curtain of night.

Right in front of them, the flames suddenly rose up, engulfing the half-orc legion tasked with protecting the right flank of the half-orc army.

The flames quickly spread all around, like a sudden and fierce storm of fire, dangerous and deadly.

Under the fierce flames’ devouring, the half-orc soldiers wailed in pain, turning into struggling balls of fire.

Before this, in order to minimize damage from the rain of arrows unleashed by the archer cavalry, the half-orc soldiers had already tightened their formation, hiding behind the heavy infantry.

This clustered formation allowed the magic cannons to maximize their destructive power.

For a moment, the smell of gunpowder and charred flesh filled the air, as dismembered limbs and bodies splattered everywhere. The right flank of the half-orc army suffered devastating losses, becoming frantic and disoriented, like a swarm of headless flies.

Despite the panic-stricken half-orc soldiers still displaying killing intent, they were helpless, as the scorching flames continuously exploded around them.

The cause of all this was the 100 Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons that Leo Ray carried with him.

Since most of the limited Demon Energy Luminous Crystals had been sent to different areas, this was already the firepower limit for Leo Ray.

However, Leo Ray understood clearly.

For an army of 100,000, even though the 100 Tier 2 Magic Cannons could only have limited effects.

But this wasn’t his main attack method, only the introductory act intended to draw the enemy in.

As for the real highlight, it was yet to be unveiled, waiting for the opponent to reveal their weakness.

Not long ago, under the cover of the dark night, Leo Ray unreservedly deployed rows of magic cannons near the right flank of the half-orc army, without worry about being attacked in large numbers.

That was because between the two armies, there was an invisible barrier, the swamp defense line laid down by the half-orcs earlier.

By the time the half-orc soldiers crossed the muddy area, Leo Ray would have already left for another location.

Also, since Taylor had already fought against the enemy and both sides had Tier 5 powerhouses present,

the half-orc leader wouldn’t easily engage in battle or send other elite powerhouses to die.

After grasping the enemy’s intentions, Leo Ray threw a Tier 5 attack scroll, “Fury of the Flame Dragon,” into the chaotic and densely-packed half-orc army, instantly evaporating more than a battalion of half-orcs.

“This despicable human, absolutely infuriating!”

Seeing his right flank engulfed in a sea of fire while his left flank struggled to dodge the rain of arrows, the half-orc leader, roaring angrily, finally understood the purpose behind Leo Ray’s series of actions.

After annihilating theJumping Dragon Cavalry that served as the army’s mobile force, Leo Ray used the unparalleled archer cavalry army to continuously harass the half-orc army from all directions.

Because of the lightning-fast speed of the bow cavalry puppets, the returning half-orc longbowmen, javelin throwers, and shamans simply couldn’t accurately hit their targets.

As for the catapults, more than half of them had already been destroyed by Roscoe’s targeted attacks on the walls. Furthermore, their slow movement made them even more incapable of dealing with the elusive bow cavalry.

This forced the half-orc leader to tighten his formation and deploy a ring of swamp traps around the army, preventing Leo Ray’s unrestrained bow cavalry from getting any closer.

Now, under the bombardment of magic cannons, whose range was far beyond that of ordinary bows and magic,

the swamp traps that were originally meant to defend against Leo Ray turned into a cage trapping the half-orcs themselves. It was like drawing a line on the ground, from which there was no escape.

The most crucial factor was that the half-orc leader didn’t know how many magic cannons Leo Ray had on him, or how long he could hold out.

After sorting everything out in his mind, the usually unfazed half-orc leader finally revealed a trace of panic on his rough face.

If the enemy were to bring out more magic cannons and launch an attack from several directions simultaneously, along with the bow cavalry legion, wouldn’t his army of 100,000 become easy prey?

“Humans, the leader will never let your schemes succeed!”

With this thought in mind, the half-orc leader didn’t hesitate and immediately instructed his messenger, ordering the half-orc shamans to refill the swamp traps on the rear, left, and right sides of the army formation.

After that, he mobilized three legions primarily composed of light and heavy infantry to form a formation outside the circle, creating a horn-like formation with the other attacking legions inside the circle.

In this way, no matter which direction the despicable humans attacked, the other side would promptly provide support until the enemy was completely annihilated.

Of course, the progress of the siege couldn’t be slowed down.

As long as they broke through Dragon’s Lair, even if the humans’ bow cavalry was formidable, once the city gate closed, the enemy would lose their space to display their might.

“Humans, let the leader see what tricks you can play this time! With just this little trick, you won’t shake the leader’s 100,000-strong army!”

After making all the arrangements, the half-orc leader snorted coldly and continued to closely watch the battlefield situation.

“Lord, the enemy has indeed refilled part of the swamp traps and chosen to split their forces!”
