Devil’s Son-in-Law

resentment as she almost lost her usual calmness, “Is Shea so important? In this situation, if you insist on going your own way, you can only die with her!”

“I don’t know anything about a ruler’s power, I only know 1 thing.
If 1 day, even if everything in the world stands on the opposite side of the woman I love, I will still be by her side.”

“Understood.” Catherine took a deep breath as her black eyes settled and exuded faint murderous intent.
Her long hair began to flutter without the wind.
The courtyard was suddenly full of murderous intent, “Since you refuse, then … I will not tolerate an enemy who is a huge threat to the empire to survive.”

“This yard has a magic circle that isolates teleportation or leaving.
I felt it right from the moment I came in.
It seems that you have planned to do this a long time ago.” Chen Rui sighed, “Do we really have to get to this point.
?”

“I gave you a choice.” Catherine’s voice was ghastly as the entire space burned suddenly, leaving only flames in Chen Rui’s eyes – black flames.

Catherine used the strongest [Black Phoenix Territory] without hesitation.
In the space of black flames, 4 golden figures appeared around Chen Rui.

“Boom boom!“

The magic crystal cannons of the Warlock Fortress burst into flames.
Wherever the destructive light passes, even the customized reflective shield still could not completely offset the power of this improved version of the magic crystal cannon.
The soldiers holding the shields had turned into nothingness.
However, the reflective shield was not completely useless, and the lethality of the magic crystal cannons were also reduced a lot.

The army of the Bloody Empire was worthy of being the well-trained elites.
Although one after another companions were annihilated or collapsed, the formation was still not in disorder at all.
Facing the Warlock Fortress, the Demon Realm’s the largest and the sturdiest fortress city, the soldiers kept their original speed and moved forward unhurriedly, just like how they breached the defense of Town Nimbus previously.
This momentum put tremendous pressure on the defense side.

The soldiers of the Warlock Fortress had followed George, the first general of the Fallen Angel Empire, for many years.
They were also experienced elites, so they didn’t burst into clamour or panic.
They just silently waited for Commander Francis’ orders.

Due to the cooling period, the bombardment of the magic crystal cannons were temporarily stopped.
Francis waved his hand and the herald’s magic horn blew out a strange rhythm.
The goblin warriors responsible for the long-range strike were all ready to take their place.
A row of strange equipment appeared on the fortress’ shooting holes.

“Ballista?”

At the Town Nimbus’ temporary base, the Bloody Empire’s First General Gustav was watching the battle of the Warlock Fortress through a huge magic crystal mirror.
The Great Prince Aleus and Young Prince Teris of the Bloody Empire were next to him.

Aleus frowned, “Although the ballista has a considerable range, it has already been eliminated from the ordinary battlefield due to the complex loading, slow launch speed, and small range of strikes.
At this time, even the magic bows have greater attack rate and killing range than the ballista.
It’s hard to believe that George will make this kind of mistake.”

“So there must be something unusual about the ballistas.” Teris said, “In the battle between the Dark Moon and Obsidian, the improved magic crystal cannon used to exert unexpected power.
I think this ballista should be 1 of the secret weapons that have not been revealed at that time.
I believe we will get the answer soon.”

Teris had guessed it right.
Following Francis’ order, countless spear-like crossbow bolts whistled out, and the sky was full of terrifying sounds tearing the air.

The soldiers of the Bloody Empire raised their shields together under the command of the commander.
However, the reflective shield, which could offset the energy attack to a considerable extent, was as fragile as a paper in front of the terrifying crossbow bolt.
The bolt easily penetrated the shield and the soldier.
The bolt that penetrated the target exploded fiercely, bursting out countless small fragmented arrows which were also highly poisonous.
The nearby soldiers fell to the ground 1 after another.

Each arrow shot could take the lives of several soldiers.
What’s more terrifying was that the loading speed of this ballista was much faster than ordinary ballistas.
Although it was also due to the operation standard of the goblin warriors, the more important reason was the ballista’s improvement.

The Bloody Empire Army suffered countless casualties under the bolt rain of the ballista, but they still tried to maintain its formation.
It was just that their advancement was slowed down.

“No doubt there is something unusual.” Gustav who was in front of the magic mirror slowly said, “The soldiers will not die in vain.
We have determined the enemy’s long-range strike range.
It should be possible to construct catapults and great shield barriers immediately.
The aerial legion should also start preparing.”

“Yes, the real war has just begun.
This will be a great feast that can change the history of the Demon Realm.” Teris smiled elegantly as a strange light flashed across his eyes.

TL: Hmmm, I smell jealousy from Catherine.
Are there any more secret weapons to defend the fortress?
