Chapter 735: They're crazy, they're using thorium as bombs

Mondra was a bit confused, and in fact, Duke Yingsi and the Archbishop were also confused. The soldiers of Mondra, who stood on the wall of the Capital of Saints, all looked puzzled.

The experienced generals could roughly estimate the distance when they heard the sound of the cannon just now. The firing position was behind West Gran’s army, at least two miles away from the wall.

This distance was too far!

What kind of cannon could shoot that far?

Short cannons can actually shoot that far, but no one thinks it's anything special. This is because the solid iron bullets fired by short cannons have very limited lethality, at most they can only bombard the city walls. Moreover, most of the short cannons are either flat-fired or have a slight parabolic arc, so would they shoot their own soldiers if they were mounted behind their own army?

Mondra looked up at the sky and could hear the whistle of the shells but couldn't see them. This was not a good feeling.

Then came a "Biu" sound from far to near, and then, "Boom", a section of the wall far away exploded!

Flame magic splashed behind the wall, and countless sparks flew in all directions, and the huge heat spread in all directions, and red light particles drifted. The soldiers standing near the explosion point were the first to bear the brunt, and they were shaken by the explosion and flew out, falling tens of yards away.

Mondra couldn't help but say, "Huh? Explosion spell?"

How did this short-range magic get thrown into our city? Is there a spy in the city?

However, as soon as he thought of this, he immediately understood that it was not a spy who threw the explosion spell, but the shell that flew in with a sharp whistle from the sky.

Mondra was shocked, "They didn't fire solid shells, but magical projectiles like landmines."

Yingsi next to him was startled, "This is impossible!"

As soon as he spoke, he heard another "Biu" sound from far to near, followed by a "Boom" sound. Far away, behind the city wall, it exploded again, and the same explosion spell once again blasted a large group of soldiers behind the city wall in all directions.

"Damn, what kind of bullshit technology is this?" Mondra was furious, "Why can they shoot magical projectiles? Won't these hollow magical projectiles be destroyed by the shock at the moment of firing?"

He was swearing in anger when he suddenly noticed something strange. The soldiers who were blown away by the explosion were one thing, but the ones who had not been hit by the explosive in the center of the explosion were now falling down one by one.

He couldn't help but wonder, "What happened? They weren't hit by the explosion, so why are they falling?"

A nearby soldier rushed forward and looked closely at the soldier lying on the ground where the explosion had just occurred. He then looked up and shouted, "Your Majesty, they were killed by sharp objects piercing their bodies."

"Hmm?" Mondra was surprised, "What sharp objects?"
