As the former northern commander of Saint Vicoia, Fried certainly knew about the Gear Building in Hamey City, and also knew that there were two huge cannons hidden in the Gear Building. Those two huge cannons had long been in disrepair and could no longer be used.
, he once entered the Gear City for on-site inspection, and found that there were indeed many rusty and necrotic parts of the mechanism roulette inside. For this reason, he proposed to the central government of the empire to allocate funds to repair the Gear City cannon. The then Prime Minister Zalberg used the military budget as insufficient, and the cannon was
The proposal was rejected on the grounds that the drawings were missing.
Therefore, when Fried, who was lying on the back of the pseudo-dragon, saw the gear mechanism of Hamey City turning, he immediately became alert.
The gear rotated very slowly at first, but as the magic energy of the whole city was mobilized, the huge gear rotated faster and faster. The huge tall building connected to it also deformed and opened in some places due to the activation of the mechanism, and the building city started from the middle.
Separated by steps on both sides, in the deep cave inside the giant building, two giant cannons, one small and one large, stacked one above the other, raised their muzzles.
At this time, the building of Zhilou City was completely opened like an open-air theater. There were two huge cannons, the small cannon on top and the big cannon on the bottom. One had a muzzle diameter of 460 meters and the other had a diameter of 1,700 meters. Under the gun mounts were all various weapons.
There are a kind of pipes, and dozens of giant jar-like objects are connected behind the pipes. Although these two cannons are huge and bulky, in fact, the muzzle turning is not slow. The pitch angle of the large-caliber is limited, but the 460-meter small giant cannon can
It can target the air at an elevation angle and is already adjusting the direction of the gunfire.
It turned out that during Purcell's battle, the city defense chief realized that the city's defenders were unable to resist the opponent, and immediately entered the Gear City building with his cronies to accumulate energy for Gear City to pre-activate.
Gear City was built by Duke, who designed the Duke Cannon to fight the threat from the northern republic. Later, Hamey City was rebuilt after many battles, and the Duke Cannon was also improved and turned into a double-height cannon.
Cannon. Later, when the republican regime collapsed and the Demon Moon was established, St. Viktor moved north to seize a large area of territory and the southern Vulcan region, making the threat of Hamel City disappear. It was gradually forgotten and no longer maintained.
maintainance.
When the Empire once again thought of the Duke Cannon in Hamey City, the cannon had already malfunctioned, and due to various reasons, it took nearly a thousand years to start the repair plan. However, the blueprints were lost by then, and the people who knew how to maintain the cannon were gone.
It can't be repaired.
So this time the gear city's mechanism was activated, everyone in the city was surprised. Some residents had lived here for generations and had no idea that the gear city building could be opened and that there were two such huge cannons inside.
Fried, who was diving with the pseudo-dragon, sneered solemnly: "It's interesting, I've forced out something interesting. Gorinich, stop rushing and stay away from here!"
The pseudo-dragon immediately turned around and tried to fly away from the city. The sub-cannon of the Duke cannon in Hamei City followed the deflection of the muzzle angle, and then there was a blast of devastating cannon!
The huge shelling left no time to hear the sound of the bombardment. People in the city felt their chests were tight, their hearts were pounding, and their eardrums were buzzing, as if all the power in their bodies had been taken away, and they fell to the ground.
Nothing could be heard from the ground.
Of course, Duke's cannon did not take away the strength of the residents, but the huge earthquake knocked them out of power. It took a while for their hearts to beat again and their strength to recover.
After the giant cannon bombarded, it left a thick energy trace as straight as a sword in the sky. Such a large muzzle does not require too high accuracy, and it can also reduce the objects in the place it passes and the surrounding area to ashes.
.
The pseudo-dragons Gorinich and Fried who were originally flying in this direction disappeared. Calasias, Veronica and others nervously searched for the marshal in the sky, and the emotions on their faces gradually became sad as time went by.
"F...Little Marshal Fried has been evaporated? Along with his guardian..." Polly looked at the sky in surprise and fear. In such a good weather, it shouldn't be difficult to find a person and a giant dragon.
.
In Hamei City, the generals and officers on the terrace of the Gear Building were shocked to the point that their brains were about to fall apart. They were so dizzy that they could no longer stand still. When they saw the garrison chief coming out of the building, they staggered forward and surrounded him. They wanted to speak but they couldn't stand.
I couldn't speak, my chest felt tight and blocked, and I just wanted to vomit.
There are not many people who know that there is Duke Cannon in Hamey City, and the Northern Commander is one of them. Although Artimit was the temporary acting commander before, after arriving in Hamey City, he also learned about Duke Cannon.
After he calmed down for a while, he asked: "Pump, the Duke cannon works! Has it been repaired? When did it happen?"
Guardsman Pump's mind was also buzzing. He retched for a while, shook his head and said: "Of course it... is broken, and even broken ones can be used."
"What's the meaning?"
The dark-skinned Pump said: "Sir Artimite, what do you think the successive garrison officers of Hamey City are doing? As an imperial soldier, how can you allow such good ordnance and artillery to be abandoned? Since a long time ago, all the garrison officers have been
We are thinking about how to repair it. The central government of the empire refused to allocate funds, so we raised our own funds. After years of redrawing the drawings bit by bit and doing reverse research, we finally repaired some parts."
"Since it has been repaired, why do you want to hide it from the empire? What on earth are you doing in Hamei City?" Artimite asked.
Pump pulled him aside to a deserted place and said, "Do you think I'm going to rebel against the empire? Oh, that's crazy. I'm not hiding anything, and Duke Tulip knows this. If something isn't fixed, it's not fixed. Tell the king
Your Majesty, he came to inspect and what should I do if the basket is found? Now, only the small cannon of the Duke cannon can be used. I didn't know whether it could be used until I tried it just now. In fact, the small cannon has not been repaired. When I started it just now, some of the cannons were inside.
There was another problem with parts, two 230-meter gears fell off, and a long shaft was broken. Fortunately, the pressure furnace didn't explode, but I don't know if it can still fire the second shot."
Artimite probably understood what was going on, and immediately said to him: "Don't tell anyone else about this. Can the cannon still be used?"
"There should be no problem with the rotation. The furnace pressure is still there."
Artemit nodded: "Okay, if the enemy does it again, just turn the barrel to scare them, but don't fire again unless absolutely necessary."
"Don't worry." Pump said: "Only a few people are willing to repair the cannon. The others don't know much about the real condition of Duke's cannon. Alas, if the situation hadn't been too tight just now, I wouldn't have done it.
A test shot will be launched, and I don’t know how long it will take to repair the mechanical damage caused by this shot.”
Fried was not dead, but the cannon shot just now scared him and turned pale. The power of the cannon shot, let alone his first-level blood-condensed gold body, would have been reduced to rubble even if it resisted the Holy Eye's golden shield.
The three-headed pseudo-dragon was seriously injured, and half of its body was scorched and deformed. It was currently hiding on the back of a slope, shivering, and whining from time to time.
