I rely on myself

Chapter 767 Shout
Edward looked at the conspicuous cut on his cloak. It was when he subconsciously dodged. Although he dodged it, his cloak was touched and left this cut.

"That was a nice shot. I was careless."

The words of praise came from the dean's mouth, and they were also his thoughts from the heart.

Although there was an element of carelessness on his part, since they were able to successfully touch him with the help of these knight dolls that were obviously mass-produced, regardless of whether the means were too despicable, the wisdom alone was enough for him to praise.

However, while praising, the dean also became serious. After all, the previous lesson left a deep impression on him. At the same time, he had to rush to check the battleship that was broken into two parts. After all, it had been restarted once before, and there was no guarantee that it would not happen a second time. In order to avoid accidents, he had to end the battle as soon as possible.

Therefore, although the knight puppets tried their best, and even though they saw the huge gap in magic power between the two sides, they still rushed forward fearlessly.

Of course, no matter how fearless he was, the dean was undoubtedly far superior to the knight puppets in strength. It didn't even take 10 seconds for those knight puppets to be taken down and destroyed.

The last knight puppet struggled to get up from the ground. It had suffered heavy damage. Its shield was gone, and its body was full of pits and gaps. Only its right arm was intact, holding a sword with half of the blade broken. But even so, it still tried hard to get up from the ground and continue fighting.

Seeing this scene, Edward was not moved at all. He directly shot a magic bullet through the head cleanly and instantly the last knight puppet fell down completely.

"........."

Although the knight puppets only delayed for about a minute, it was enough.

With the "heart" beating again, the battleship that had been broken into two started up again. This time it no longer started the engine or other functions, but injected all the remaining magic power into the main gun.

With the massive infusion of magic power, spots of light continued to gather at the muzzle of the main gun, aiming at the clock tower in the distance.

Naturally, this scene was discovered by many people, but it was too late.

The main gun opened fire instantly as soon as it was charged. Under the huge reaction force, the battleship, which was already on the verge of disintegration, disintegrated instantly.

A large number of broken parts and armor flew everywhere due to the recoil of the firing, and those who were not prepared were scrambling to cope with it.

The fired shells also flew straight towards the bell tower at several times the speed of sound. There was no time to intercept them. Almost in the blink of an eye, when almost no one could react, the shells hit the bell tower directly and penetrated it.

At the moment of contact, the violent energy released from the shell caused the bell tower to collapse directly. The shell penetrated several meters into the ground at a downward angle before it exploded.

The shock wave of the explosion erupted indiscriminately, destroying everything around it and continuing to spread with their debris.

The originally collapsed bell tower was also affected by the impact of the explosion, sweeping around like a sandstorm.

As the smoke from the explosion gradually dissipated, a bottomless pit appeared in everyone's sight.

Many people did not pay much attention to the appearance of this hole, but just lamented the disasters that the bell tower had suffered. After all, the bell tower was destroyed once half a year ago because Charlotte attacked the dean. As a result, it was destroyed again less than half a year after it was repaired. People could not help but sigh with emotion.

However, when everyone was lamenting the many disasters that had happened to the bell tower, the dean was suddenly stunned when he saw the hole, and then he immediately realized the other party's purpose, and shouted with a changed face. "Stop them!!!"

The Dean's roar startled many people, and they were also wondering who 'they' were?
But there was no need to wonder soon, because they appeared directly.

Along with the sound of many iron boots stepping on the ground, a group of knight puppets suddenly rushed in. They were the mechanical puppets that invaded from the destroyed city wall.

While the professors and students who were in charge of intercepting them were distracted by a series of unexpected events, they all suddenly exploded and activated their own magic circuits.

Although each knight puppet only has slightly stronger magic power than an ordinary person, their strength is undoubtedly doubled when connected to each other. Because there are enough people connected, their magic power directly rises to a level that is only slightly lower than the level of "Thirteen People".

With so many advantages, the defense line formed by the college professors and students was directly broken through. Even if the knight puppets had not received the order to kill as many enemies as possible, I am afraid that there would be many casualties among the college professors and students who formed the broken defense line.

As for now, it's at most some broken bones. Although it's a serious injury, it's better than losing your life.

After breaking through the interception, these knight puppets had no intention of slowing down. They even continued to speed up and rushed straight towards the hole created by the main gun.

Looking at this group of knight puppets that suddenly appeared, all the students around the pit prepared for a battle. After all, the dean had already reminded them of this.

But surprisingly, the knight puppets ignored the students who took fighting stances, unless a student blocked their way, then they would attack. But even then, as long as the students got out of the way, they would not continue to pester them, but would rush straight to the pit and try to get in.

Seeing this scene, some students had an ambiguous look in their eyes, and calmly made way to let the knight puppets rush through.

As for the behavior of some students, the experienced dean naturally knew what was going on. It was nothing more than that those students had already discovered that there was some secret under the academy. It was precisely for this reason that the unknown mastermind planned such an attack.

At the same time, you can also use this opportunity to test the secrets of the academy, killing two birds with one stone.

But even if he saw all this, there was nothing the dean could do. After all, he was just the dean and had no right to force those students to work for him.

Even if there is a reckoning afterwards, those students can say that they were merely students who came to the academy to study and had no obligation to help the academy fight against foreign enemies.

There was no other way, Edward had to go on the field himself, but even so, he was still too late to stop all the knight puppets, and in the end a few knight puppets successfully jumped into the pit.

Not long after, the cry of an unknown wild beast suddenly rang out, resounding throughout the entire academy and could even be heard around the academy.

Although the sound was like that of a wild beast, everyone who heard it inexplicably felt a sacred feeling, like watching a new life being born into the world.

Although it is not strong, it is extremely profound.

With this shout, something officially began to count down. Many people had this feeling. Afterwards, although the city called Liverpool remained the same on the surface, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the undercurrent inside was becoming more and more turbulent.
