Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

Chapter 84: Blake Blackcrow, the First Heir of the Blackcrow Household



This man was the eldest son of Reynard Blackcrow, Blake Blackcrow!

As soon as he gave the command, several groups of men pushed the catapults in front. There were twenty catapults in total and each of them was inscribed with flame array formations, making their firepower even stronger!

Ordinary defensive walls would be blasted into smithereens if attacked by even one of these enhanced catapults!

"Place the boulders!" Blake instructed his subordinates.

He knew that no Nascent Soul martial practitioner was present in the Firecrown Household\'s estate, but he wasn\'t stupid enough to charge ahead recklessly.

The soldiers responsible for operating the catapults immediately lifted the boulders and placed them into the bucket.

These catapults were powered by stored potential energy to propel the boulders and their throwing arms were also augmented by array formations to increase their tensile strength.

It only took less than a minute for the skilled operators to put the boulders into place.

"Release!" Blake Blackcrow issued the command. He didn\'t even bother to negotiate with the people on top of the walls. He only had one mission; to destroy the members of the Firecrown Household!

Twenty burning boulders were fired at the western wall.

Blake Blackcrow looked on with a cold gaze. He knew that there were defensive array formations inscribed on the walls so this attack was only a test to see the extent of their defensive capabilities.

The burning boulders exploded in midair before they could impact the western wall. A bowl-shaped golden energy shield that covered the entire estate was revealed after the boulders exploded.

"A 5th-tier Defensive Array Formation? No wonder father asked me to bring that thing here." Blake muttered to himself when he saw the golden energy shield.

"Continue sending the boulders!" Blake shouted.

\'Array formations are powered by energy stones. They wouldn\'t be able to sustain the consumption of energy stones for long.\' He thought.

The barrage of burning boulders rained down upon the western wall, striking fear into Gunnar\'s soldiers.

At this moment, Gunnar\'s face was ashen. He knew that the defensive array formations wouldn\'t last long. Once they used up the energy stones stored within the heart of the array formations, the western wall would be destroyed!

"Captain, what should we do?"

Everyone looked at Gunnar with anxious gazes. The enemy\'s firepower scared them. Even the members of the guards unit were also affected.

"Don\'t panic, everyone! The defensive array formations should hold out for thirty minutes! Aim the ballistas into their catapults and destroy them! We must get rid of those pesky war machines!" Gunnar issued a series of commands to the uneasy soldiers. His calmness somehow made them feel a lot better.

Alice and Olivia felt relieved when they saw that the soldiers had recovered from their fear. With a levelheaded leader like Gunnar, they felt more reassured.

"I told you didn\'t, I? We just need to do our assigned tasks and everything will be alright." Alice patted Olivia\'s shoulder.

Olivia nodded in agreement. The defensive capabilities of the array formations made her feel secure.

After that short exchange, the two quickly went to do their assigned tasks.

"Aim for their catapults!" Gunnar shouted as he stood fearlessly on top of the wall.

The soldiers immediately aimed at the catapults upon hearing his command.

"Hold!"

"Fire!"

The ballistas\' large arrows were released.

Blake had already predicted this so when he noticed the ballistas movements, he commanded the strongest martial practitioners in his army to block the giant arrows of the ballistas.

Multiple defensive skills were used to block the large arrows. However, some arrows still penetrated their defenses and struck a few catapults, rendering them unusable.

Blake\'s mouth twitched when he saw this. "Useless fools!" He muttered under his breath. That wave of arrows destroyed four of their catapults. The Blackcrow Household didn\'t have a lot of those catapults so losing even one was a huge loss to the family.

"Put up more defenses and don\'t let them destroy more of our catapults!" He shouted in anger.

He was dissatisfied with his troops\' performance.

\'It looks like I have to take out that item now to minimize our losses.\' Blake thought with narrowed eyes.

"Bring out that thing!" Blake sent a knowing look at his right-hand man.

The man nodded and left his side.

A moment later, several men appeared, pulling out a machine that looked like a modern-day artillery.

Its tube-like body was made of an unknown metal inscribed with seven layers of complex array formations. There were also three array formation masters operating the machine.

Blake smiled when he saw the machine. It was the latest creation of the Blue Sky Kingdom. Their family had to pay a huge price just to buy this thing from them, but it was worth it!

Unlike the catapults that relied on stored potential energy and some low-grade inscriptions, this machine was more highly sophisticated. It was inscribed with seven high-grade inscriptions. Even the metal balls used as bullets were inscribed with explosive array formations. This was a machine for mass destruction!

Even the 5th-tier Defensive Formation that the Firecrown Household was so proud of would be powerless against this weapon!

Blake had seen its firepower once during a demonstration and it left a deep impression on him.

"Load the metal ball!" Blake smiled coldly as he issued the command.

The operators carefully loaded the metal ball inside the tube-like body of the machine.

"Fire at my signal!"

The Array Formation Masters immediately activated the array formations of the machine. "We are ready to fire, my lord!" They shouted as soon as the array formations were activated.

Hearing this, Blake\'s eyes flashed with frenzied excitement. "Fire!"

One of the Array Formation Masters pulled the trigger.

The machine made an explosive noise and recoiled after it fired the shot.

BOOOOM!!!
