However, the coalition forces outside the city were not to be outdone. They had long anticipated the attack by Cassander's army.

After all, this has happened countless times. Even the walls of the holy city have long been riddled with holes. They even climbed up the walls, but were recaptured by Cassander's soldiers.

The Thracian Kingdom's arcane army raised their staffs, and golden energy passports identical to those on the city wall suddenly rose up to resist the attack coming down from the city wall.

After all, they are both descendants of the empire, and even their tactics are almost the same.

But even these solar shields could not stop everything. When the golden arrows shot from the giant crossbow pierced the shields, soldiers were still pierced through.

Death is constantly happening on this land, almost without stopping.

"Eli, you're looking for death!"

Tirena glared, flapped her wings, gripped the hilt of the sword with both hands, and released the explosive divine power in the giant sword.

"boom!"

Two energies of the same origin collided in the sky, causing an explosion that shook the sky.

The blazing energy shockwave spread rapidly, causing everyone present to feel a gust of hot wind.

"Tirena, it seems that you have completely forgotten how to respect your predecessors!"

Eli jumped up from the city wall and climbed rapidly to a height of hundreds of meters. The blade shone brightly in the sky.

Then he chopped down.

A terrifying torrent of energy descended from the sky; Eli's rage even caused a hurricane to surge.

"There is no respect for you, the rebels of the empire!"

Tirena was not afraid at all. She raised the giant sword again and released explosive divine power into the sky.

"boom!"

Another massive explosion.

Several angels fell from mid-air and turned into burning meteorites.

Eli had already rushed forward under the cover of the fire and slashed at Tirena's white neck with a knife.

However, Tirena flapped her wings and suddenly climbed to a height of more than ten meters, and once again released a beam of light at Eli below her.

Eli lay down with his long sword to block the beam of light containing terrifying heat, fighting and retreating.

As a descendant of the Titans, Eli also has the ability to float in the air, but he is not as flexible as the descendants of the Angels.

Tirena circled and swam in the air, constantly flying around Eli, trying to find the warrior's weakness.

"Marshal Eli!"

"Defend the Holy City to the death!"

One by one, the Titan warriors jumped down from the city wall and came to support Eli, but many of them were shot by the flying light arrows.

They fought with the angel warriors like this. Angels kept falling from the sky and some Titans died on the way to the charge.

Explosions and flames were everywhere.

The beam descended from the sky, melting the solid rock with ease.

Under the ravages of the armies of both sides, deep cracks and huge pits once again appeared on the devastated land.

Eli landed on the ground and confronted Tirena in the air, roaring angrily.

"Tirena!"

"His Majesty Aragon once said that owning the Holy City means owning the royal power!"

"Your Majesty Otis is the real emperor! And the Wilham you serve is just a greedy and selfish person who refuses to give up power!"

"His Majesty Otis is the real emperor!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Titans cheered and smashed the ground with their giant hammers, causing the earth to make rumbling sounds and vibrate and wail continuously.

This is the power of the divine nobles. They were once the pillars of the Fadlan Empire and are now the trump cards in the hands of the three major kingdoms.

Every descendant of God has power comparable to that of a superhuman being, and the most powerful duke of God can even reach the pinnacle of legend.

Seeing the two groups of gods fighting, the other mortal troops all moved away.

It was a battle of calamity, and it was almost impossible for mortals to participate.

The light beams from the angel gods and the earthquakes from the titan gods can easily take the lives of mortals.

This was also a major feature of the former Holy Fadlan military system - the God-born Legion, as the high-end force of the army, was extremely powerful, enough to fight against the Celestials and demons, while the mortal army at the bottom was a mess.

In other words, the Arcane Legion can barely be considered powerful.

This also meant that after the descendants of gods gradually lost their power, the kingdoms that split from Holy Fadlan were simply not strong enough to control their own territories.

The Holy Fadlan Empire once used the power of Amaunator to expand its territory to various planes, but after losing the light of the sun, they could not even protect their own homeland.

"You are misinterpreting His Majesty's words!"

"The Holy City is obviously the closest to our Thracian Kingdom, but you, Cassander, shamelessly occupied it!"

"You rebels will never truly own it!"

Tirena flapped her wings again, and her slender, white arms easily swung the three-meter-long giant sword, creating another series of exploding beams of light.

The angels behind them also flapped their wings and flew over again, releasing rays of fire.

Behind them, tens of thousands of mortal troops were marching at the urging of their commander-in-chief, slowly approaching Teotihuacan. The horse-drawn carriages carrying baggage made dull noises.

Eli sneered, used the knife in one hand to split the beam of light, then looked at the huge number of mortal troops behind them and laughed heartily.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Are all the descendants of your Thracian gods dead? You actually sent these mortals to die!"

"I'm afraid Wilham is about to collapse! Can such a weak thing stop us, Cassander?"

But this time, the Thracian mortal soldiers behind the angel gods did not just watch the battle, but lifted the cloth on the carriage and moved out black metal cannons.

——That is the [Thunder Hammer] of the Burning Empire!
Tirena pointed her great sword at the Holy City.

"Destroy them! Fire!"

"boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

With thunder-like sounds and smoke coming out of the muzzles, shells drew graceful arcs in the air and landed on Cassander's position.

However, these cannons were products obsoleted by the empire and did not use new shrapnel shells, but solid shells.

But even so, the shells hitting the crowd still caused a lot of casualties. Even those Titan descendants were caught off guard and many were injured.

Although the power is not as strong as the spells of the Arcane Legion, they have the advantage of being numerous.

You should know that the Kingdom of Thrace purchased a total of 35,000 [Thunder Hammer-II] artillery pieces, and thousands of them were brought to this battlefield alone.

In order to make these artillery pieces effective, Wilham brought in more than 70,000 mortal troops - this was something that the northern countries had to gather with all their efforts, but it was nothing for the Thracian Kingdom.

Looking at the shells raining down from the sky, Eli casually stretched out his hand.

"boom!"

A dull sound.

Eli held the shell in his hand. It was red hot and emitting bursts of white smoke.

“Sizzle!”

He gradually exerted force on his hands and crushed the shell.

"This kind of thing."

"It's very powerful, able to give mortals the power to harm the descendants of gods, and there are so many of them."

Eli looked at the black cannon muzzles in the distance, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

You have to know that even the Apollo crossbow on the city wall can only be used skillfully by well-trained veterans, and it is expensive and there are not many of them.

And when he looked at those mortal troops, he found that they were holding a peculiar short stick, which continuously shot out high-speed projectiles, which were much more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows.

"What are those weapons?"

Eli's expression became more solemn, and his eyes turned from contempt to surprise when he looked at those mortals. (End of this chapter)
