The whole town on the Peac.o.c.k’s side was in frenzy. Sam’s shell which passed through the large hole in the wall, landed on the temporary military post doing quite some damage.
By this time, the Peac.o.c.k and the soldiers are already trembling in fear. They didn’t know what to do. They cannot directly attack them, as their strength is quite low and now with the addition of the impact cannons, they are even more hesitant to make a move.
They don’t know these are impact crystals, all they know is that shell is doing quite some damage to wall which is made to defend against thousands of soldiers.
If they made a move and get hit by the shell directly... they didn’t even want to imagine that.
Particularly, Peac.o.c.k is terrified by the development. He just made a proud proclamation that there are more people inside the town and Sam cannot defeat him with his five hundred soldiers and now, Sam is not only destroying the town wall, he is also destroying the town without even entering.
This time he is both angry and afraid and he also realized his mistake, he should have kept his mouth shut, he just wanted Sam to give up and tried to intimidate him by telling him about the trap.
Now only, he realized how stupid he was. As he was thinking, the Deputy came out, his face is still pale and he seemed a little exhausted. He is already ashamed when he heard the plan of the Peac.o.c.k, but after he heard the explosions, he felt that something was wrong and was about to come out.
The Healers stopped him and only let him go after he was healed. But as he came out, he saw a shell dropping and destroying a nearby military post.
He immediately climbed the watch station on the wall on which the peac.o.c.k stood, and looked at the situation. The cannons from a far and their expressions of delight when firing on shell after another, Deputy didn’t even know how to react.
He really wanted to smack the face of the young lord by provoking this madman.
As the situation was going south, a supervisor suddenly made his way out of the nearby cliff. Sam gestured his soldiers to halt. This supervisor is from the Peac.o.c.k’s side.
Seeing this, the supervisor, who greeted Sam earlier came out and also started walking towards him.
"I think you cannot use these weapons in this war. This war is test of the abilities between both you and the young lord and it is based on how well both of you will use the soldiers and citizens along with the surroundings.
In short, this is a test for your abilities, you cannot just bring some new weapons from the duke’s military and use them here."
The supervisor from the Peac.o.c.k’s side said with a serious expression. Sam didn’t answer just yet and looked at his supervisor. Seeing that he isn’t speaking at all and even trying to avoid Sam’s gaze, he understood one thing.
This supervisor is here only for namesake. Duke seems to have informed something to them.
Sam turned back to the Peac.o.c.k’s supervisor and said.
"Well, these weapons don’t belong to the southern star military. They are created by me and that too with in the past six months." As he said that he took out all his professional badges.
This made the supervisor to swallow the words that he was about to say. He saw the rank 5 and pseudo rank 3 badges, he didn’t even know how to react properly.
"Is there anything else?" Sam asked with a smirk. He knew why the supervisor came. It is to help the peac.o.c.k and they wanted to find a loophole to remove the weapons.
But it will not work. Sam already decided to not bother fighting head on anymore and just use his weapons he newly created to do the work for him. He is tired to deal with this peac.o.c.k.
The Peac.o.c.k’s supervisor was at a loss of word and left the place, Sam them looked at his supervisor who is gulping nervously. He knew what the other guy was thinking. The Duke sent them for namesake. But he must have hid the fact about Sam’s profession and also asked them to turn a blind eye if there is any foul play from the enemy.
Sam didn’t say anything; he will definitely deal with the Duke and get his payback later.
After the supervisors left, Sam didn’t continue shooting. He floated over Harbinger and when he was about same height as the Peac.o.c.k and the rest, he said in a loud voice.
"You better surrender, as you said the citizens can help the army in case someone invades the town, but at the same time, the invaders can make a move on the citizens too. I hope you guys don’t want to go to that extreme. It will save both of us a lot of time and I might even let you guys alive."
As soon as Sam’s word resounded, the soldiers on the Peac.o.c.k’s side are even hesitating. But before they could voice their opinions or discuss, the Peac.o.c.k already made another big and even the biggest mistake of his life.
"YOU COMMONER BASTARD. HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO ME LIKE YOU ARE BETTER THAN ME..
$*^^&&%^**$^%^()*(*e&^^&)&**&(*^%&^t^(&&%(***^&%^."
He let out a string of angry curse, but Sam didn’t hear all of them, he is already looking at the peac.o.c.k as if he was a dead man after the first sentence, the rest of the insults doesn’t matter to him at all.
Sam didn’t even reply and slowly descended. And went back to the line where cannons are placed.
There are only ten cannons and they are placed wide with a large gap between them.
Sam floated over his harbinger as he started taking one cannon after another. Now, there are a total of fifty cannons and the fifty fire element users from the Dragon Hawk tribe took one cannon each.
The Deputy on the other side was completely dumbfounded and he was overcome with fear.
But this is not over at all, because Sam passed some space jade rings to the fifty members and said.
"Use these after the town wall is collapsed."
After that he floated in the air again and stood with the Golden Crescent in his hands.
He snapped his finger and for some reason in that still silence all the soldiers on Peac.o.c.k’s side could feel the sound.
And then... *BOOM* BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The cannons started firing immediately and the wall was bombarded with fifty shells at the same time.
This time, the speed of shooting is also quite high, why is that so? Because the soldiers could tell from one look that Sam is angry and not just normal angry. He is out for blood. So, they didn’t even think twice before using their fastest speed.
Now most of the wall is in brink of collapse only one portion was intact and that was the post where Peac.o.c.k and the Deputy are standing.
Sam didn’t place the cannons in front of the main gate upon which the peac.o.c.k stood.
He would deal with this Peac.o.c.k himself and pluck each feather. The shooter having fun as they enjoyed the impact cannon. But the soldiers on the other side are in a dangerous frenzy.
The soldiers stationed on the wall are running for their live and they all ran towards the top of the gate.
"STOP" The Deputy shouted on top of his lungs. Beside him the peac.o.c.k is trembling in fear, he is soaked in sweat.
But his words have no effect.
"WE WILL SURRENDER." He shouted again.
Sam smirked and gestured to stop shooting.
"And you have authority to decide that? There is only one chance I am going to give you. Hand over that guy and I will accept your surrender, you will get a chance to live, I won’t even bother to deal with you. "
"That is impossible."
"Then consider I never asked."
And the shooting began and soon the wall collapsed in several places and the town was laid bare.
The shooter at that area changed the shells and placed loaded the cannon with a new one, he didn’t see any changes in this new shell, but he used them as he was told.
But after he shot, he saw what happened.
The shell didn’t reach the target, rather it exploded in the middle of the air, but some smaller objects came out of the explosion they are like some cross-bow bolts.
That is all he can see, the people on the other side though can see, what is happening. The metallic bolts, hit the surrounding buildings with some serious damage.
The buildings collapse and as they landed, they exploded again.
These are another kind of shells used for some scattered damage in a much larger area.
The shell is made hollow and there are some bolts made of the crystal inside the hollow area. After the outer shell exploded, they inner bolts will absorb the impact, and then land on the ground absorbing the kinetic energy and the impact from the ground.
The damage is severe than before and more random which makes it difficult to dodge.
The Soldiers were completely terrified and by this time the citizens are also terrified.
They evacuated this area on the account of war and when they heard the collapse of the wall, they couldn’t keep it to themselves and came towards the wall and the scene made them horrified. Their young lord was cowering in fear and the soldiers who hid in the disguise of citizens in particular and also stood in front of the crowd are having some serious expressions.
They didn’t expect things to turn out like this.
"Kill Him, Kill Him." The Peac.o.c.k kept on muttering these words. But nobody cared.
"I will say one more time on account of citizen’s lives, hand him over and you guys can leave."
Sam said as he halted the shooting and pointed at the Peac.o.c.k.
The citizens observed the effects of the cannon shells and particularly the second type and then they looked at the Peac.o.c.k.
All of them are thinking rapidly...
