Chapter 172 Long-range Attack (2)
"Ye Kai, even the light magic you are good at is not very effective on the city walls with defensive markings, right?"
She also squatted beside him and conveyed her thoughts.
“Not exactly. Actually, it’s a little different from magic.”
"Um?"
"Although the beam itself is magical, the laser it emits is just ordinary light."
The laser oscillator built into the multifunctional glove has a different structure from the laser tube facing it. The inner surface of the oval laser oscillator shell has a reflective mirror formed by engraving magic, and there is a polarization force field in the center of its internal space.
This structure achieves high focusing within a short distance and adjusts the amount of bunched photons and the degree of focusing by adjusting the strength of the polarization force field according to the number of internal photons.
Although this kind of physical structure is almost impossible to achieve through engraving magic, Ye Kai also put in a lot of effort, because the memory of the laser tube structure that he accidentally read came in handy in this situation.
In the morning mist, the bluish-white laser traced the city wall, accurately locating it. Because of the morning mist, they chose this time period to make it easier to target the city wall and prevent casualties.
After Ye Kai confirmed the aim, he increased the output of the beam laser. Then, the muffled laser oscillator began to emit a sharp high-frequency sound.
In fact, the focusing and emission of the laser is almost silent. This is because the vibrations generated by the collision of photons in the laser oscillator with the inner wall of the housing cause the multifunctional glove to resonate.
Imagine levitation by light pressure. Photons have a tiny mass too. A light object hit by strong light will levitate due to the light pressure.
The photons contained in the laser oscillator will vibrate, depending on the mass of the photons that hit the inner wall. To increase the output, the laser oscillator containing more photons will vibrate at a higher frequency, which will also make the resonant sound sharper.
The beam laser with enhanced power cut through the wall. If it was a lightsaber, it would not be able to cut through the wall. The lightsaber was focused, accelerated and formed by magic, and the defensive markings on the surface of the wall invalidated it.
After an upper and lower cut in the wall, a vertical crack was left about 18 meters laterally. In this way, the defensive engravings evenly distributed on the inner surface of the wall were isolated.
Preparations for the destruction of the city walls were complete.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Fino."
To be honest, Fino was confused. Ye Kai didn’t lie, but she really didn’t expect him to cut the wall. But since he is ready for it, I have to do it too.
“Okay, I’m starting.”
Last night, Fino gently prepared the structure in the magic calculation field. When she sent the structure out, the large high-quality magic stone in her hand began to devour and write the magic circuit into it. This feeling means that the magic was successful. Next, it is only necessary to add the required magic to the magic circuit.
"break!"
After reciting the triggering spell, there was no change at first. However, as the destruction released the binding force, the earth wall began to disintegrate into sand. The wall collapsed layer by layer from the top, as if seeing the reverse process of construction, and the height gradually decreased.
Finally, a gap of 18 meters wide was left in the city wall. At first glance, it seemed to be just a gap, but from the perspective of the function of the city wall, it was a fatal space.
The city wall that was supposed to block the enemy has lost only a part of its function. Not only can it not prevent the threat of monsters, but the enemy is currently occupying the city wall. It can be said that the city wall and the city gate have lost their function.
Seeing this situation, Ye Kai nodded and said softly: "Okay, let's start moving."
Cham smiled bitterly. Tulio sighed, thinking, "How sad." Even Fino felt a little sorry, even though it was his own fault.
After all, this man is someone who must not be annoyed, let alone start a war or something like that.
They moved quickly to another position to the west, where they made a similar breach by the running of bird scouts, and before the morning mists lifted they succeeded in completing their work.
"That would make it easier for the retreating invading army to escape in."
"No, this is no joke. The people in the city are not to be trifled with."
------------
After receiving Ye Kai's report, the top leaders of the Holzlein Army saw this scene from the high ground overlooking Loatin and couldn't help but open their mouths wide.
In the short time since early morning, the imperial capital had been stripped to tatters. It was now impossible to carry out a siege.
“It’s really too cruel.”
"It's basically an invitation for us to attack."
"Could this be the work of the Master Magic Boxer?"
"The castle that was once known to be impregnable has become like this..."
Although opinions vary, they all hint at one ending.
"Ye Kai, do you want us to attack?"
"No. Didn't I tell you that an attack would cause harm to the citizens? I'll leave it to you to make the arrangements from now on."
"arrange?"
The suggestion Ye Kai made next made everyone present pale except for some people.
“This, this is too much.”
"I really don't want to know how he came to this conclusion."
"Ah, is it? What do I think, Chaim?"
“Ask your heart.”
A heavy atmosphere enveloped the scene. For Ye Kai, this was obviously not the result he wanted.
----------------
Galatea organized four thousand cavalrymen and one hundred magicians, divided them into two teams, and stationed them 600 meters in front of each collapsed city wall.
Their actions were simply a hint of "we are about to attack", which made the Treba army responsible for defending the scene nervous. However, Holzlein's cavalry just stood there in an orderly manner and did nothing.
To prevent it from being easily breached, the engineers and city guards began to build an earth wall. Then the cavalry began to advance and approached the city wall.
Once they were ready for a defensive posture, the magicians behind the cavalry fired magic to destroy the earth wall. After confirming the destruction, the cavalry quickly retreated and regrouped to stand in place. Only a flat ground was left.
In the next few attempts, the earth wall was rebuilt and then destroyed by magic again and again. With this repetition, the soldiers inside gradually became exhausted.
Some of the Trebar soldiers pointed at the cavalry and murmured, but the Holzlein troops paid no attention. They were under the orders of Galatea.
“Don’t attack.”
“Just monitoring.”
“Don’t be provoked.”
"If you want to repair the wall, destroy it."
“If they attack, counterattack and push forward.”
There were only five instructions they received, and they were required to follow them strictly. After that, they only needed to keep their magic scattered and resist, and observe the opponent's actions.
