" Buzz! Boom!"
Dazzling flares occupied everyone's vision. The railgun fired in such a small place instantly turned the golem that Avis Bloom was proud of into dregs. Then, the several-meter-thick walls of the Yggdmillennia family castle were also turned into ruins. Outside the walls, the lush forest was also plowed into a half-kilometer-long ditch.
A few minutes later, the dust slowly drifted down. The Magicians were like puppets that needed to be wound up. Their necks were stiff as they looked at the ruined city wall and the endless ditch outside the city wall. The ground was charred black.
Within the effective range of the railgun, the towering ancient trees, solid rocks, and even the soil were completely destroyed, crushed, and sent flying...
The ground was plowed open with a trench that was more than ten meters wide. Within a radius of dozens of meters from the cannon's trajectory, there were no trees that survived. They were either completely broken and blown away, or turned into burning flames.
The castle, which had been strengthened by magic dozens of times, was completely defenseless under this cannon shot. It did not even slow down the speed of the cannonball before it was completely penetrated. The aftershock even brought down the walls on both sides.
As a result, one of the walls of the magnificent castle had completely collapsed. Looking at this scene, even Danick, the chief of the Yggdmillennia Tree, could not help but tremble.
It wasn't because of the loss of wealth, nor was it because he was afraid of the power of this cannon. He simply wanted to use this power to obtain victory in the Holy Grail War.
" Rhode…No, Mr. Rhode…" Danick's voice was slightly hoarse. He turned around slowly and looked at the Tiger assault helicopter that was still hovering in the air. He swallowed his saliva and said awkwardly. "Can you produce more of this weapon?”
Rhode nodded with a teasing smile.
"Of course, ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand…As long as I have enough modern weapons, it won't be difficult to demonize them.”
" Gulp…" Danick couldn't help but swallow his saliva. His handsome face was filled with a strange expression of shock and surprise. His entire body kept trembling, just like Fan Jin, who didn't know how to vent this joy.
" Now, in the Holy Grail War…"
"No, I can't do it at all." Looking at the Yggdmillennia Tree's joyful expression, Rhode poured cold water on it without hesitation. " Even if the power of such modern weapons is comparable to a Treasured Artifact, they're too cumbersome. Even with the enhancement of magic, they're no match for Heroic Spirits. Moreover, the 'mysteriousness' of Heroic Spirits is so powerful that modern weapons can't affect Heroic Spirits at all.”
"I see…that's a pity.”Danick shook his head. Then, he smiled again. " I do have a small suggestion. Mr. Rhode, can you forgive me?”
"What?" Rhode retreated without leaving a trace. "Forget about being gay. I'm not interested in a guy like you.”
Danick froze, but he continued with a bitter smile.
" Stop joking, Mr. Rhode. The Yggdmillennia Family needs a pillar like you. We need to bring more support to the family after we defeat the Clock Tower…"
" Yes, I can help the Yggdmillennia family build a modern war troop. The materials must be provided by you. Also, you should know the price of hiring a magician who is one of the Three Primary Colors, right? Patriarch Danick."
" Don't worry," Rhode said calmly. His tone carried the charm of a scammer. Danick shuddered and nodded with a bitter smile.
"Of course. The clan will definitely not mistreat you.”Danick pretended to laugh heartily as he spoke. "If you need it, after the Holy Grail War ends, you will be the leader of Frein. When I leave this world, you will be the leader of the Yggdmillennia Tree.”
"Not bad, but these are just empty promises. I need real benefits, not these irrelevant promises.”With a mocking smile on his face, Rhode looked at the few cyborgs who were recording the data and pursed his lips. "I'll make a small sacrifice. Give me Mr. Gorder's cyborgs mass-production technology, and I'll accept your appointment.”
" Erm…" Seeing Rhode using the Yggdmillennia Family's throne as an appointment and demanding conditions, even the shrewd Danick couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. However, as a politician, he still nodded slightly and promised. "Of course, I don't think Mr. Gold will refuse.”
"Very tactful, Your Excellency Patriarch." Rhode smiled and nodded. He looked at the courtyard that had been completely razed to the ground, the magicians who were lying on the ground, the collapsed city walls, and the ruined forest. "I don't need to deal with this kind of thing, right? As the victor, I should have the right to do so.”
"Of course. The Battle of the Holy Grail is about to begin anyway, and this castle is bound to be destroyed in the war.”Danick pretended to be carefree, but his heart ached.
This castle had a history of several centuries and had been strengthened by countless generations of magicians. Now, it had become a trendy style that was surrounded by three parts. Even the wealthy Yggdrasil family was somewhat injured.
But compared to recruiting a talent like Rhode, a mere castle was not worth mentioning. After considering the pros and cons, Danick ignored the issue of the castle.
"How generous. As expected of the leader of the Yggdmillennia Tree.”Rhode glanced at the dejected blond boy lying on the ground and mocked him. "Compared to my little brother, Luo Xie, you are much stronger.”
On the other hand, the defeated Roger was lying on the ground in tears. He didn't even notice that Rhode had left the arena.
Behind Roger, Avis Bloom, who was wearing a strange robe and a golden mask, said in disgust.
"Humph, this kind of thing goes against the original intention of the golem! Golems were techniques that used soil to imitate humans. How could something like this be called a golem? It was just a crude war machine!”
