Mas stood at the top of the Alchemy Tower and looked at the approaching Spear Legion soldiers from the Trun Kingdom with a glint in his eyes.

“This Trun Kingdom really thinks highly of me. I thought it was just the Spear Legion, but I didn’t expect that they would even send out the spear throwers!” Mas murmured.

“Mas, I’m sorry. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have…” Lilith stood beside Mas with a guilty expression.

“Lilith, this has nothing to do with you. The Storm Empire has long explicitly prohibited the trafficking of demi-humans. This Trun Kingdom has committed a grave crime. It is illegal to capture and sell rare demi-humans.

Furthermore, I witnessed what happened. Even if I didn’t take you away, the general of the Trun Kingdom would definitely come over to silence me in order to keep it a secret. Therefore, this matter doesn’t have much to do with you,” Mas consoled her by the side.

“But there are so many advanced professionals. What if…” Lilith looked at Mas worriedly.

“Don’t worry, Lilith. So what if they have more people? They’re just a bunch of rats. I don’t take them seriously at all!” Mas had a look of disdain on his face.

Looking at the massive army, Mas’ heart was already filled with killing intent. He would not let any of these soldiers off. The reason why so many people from the Trun Kingdom came was probably to flatten the Alchemy Tower. He was ready to fight mercilessly.

“Brother Mas, the six sets of runes for Flaming Heaven Rune have been inscribed.” Leah’s voice was clearly transmitted into Mas’s ears through the communication device in the tower.

Hearing this, Mas immediately instructed Walter and Harry to prepare for the attack.

As long as the other party dared to step into their attack range, they would immediately open fire.

Mas wanted to see how long these elite soldiers of the Trun Kingdom could withstand his turrets.

Bruce and Kehr led the soldiers of the Trun Kingdom and continued to march quickly towards the Alchemy Tower, but when they were only 500 meters away from it, Bruce raised his hand and signaled for the troops to stop.

“Bruce, what are you doing?” Kehr, who was on the side, was somewhat dissatisfied and asked loudly.

“Shut up, idiot! Can’t you see the rune turret on the Alchemy Tower?” Bruce retorted.

“So what if we see them? There are so many of us. Are we still afraid of those rune turrets?” Kehr was somewhat dismissive.

“As expected, you’re a classic example of a well-built man with a simple mind. Have you ever thought about how many soldiers we would lose if we were to rush over recklessly? The lives of every elite soldier here are the unique and rare treasures of the Trun Kingdom. We can’t just die here for nothing!

“Kehr, how far can you throw your spear? “Bruce asked.

Hearing this, Kehr laughed awkwardly and did not answer.

“With the enemy before us, are you still going to hide your weaknesses? Destroying the Alchemy Tower and bringing back the sea demons is His Majesty’s order. If we lose half of the remaining spear troops because of this operation, I’m afraid that it will be hard for us to have a good ending!”

Kehr pursed his lips at that and snorted coldly.

“The furthest I can throw is 250 meters,” Kehr said reluctantly.

“250 meters? That’s enough! The attack range of the rune turrets is usually between 150 to 200 meters. As long as you throw the spear first and destroy the rune turrets, the Alchemy Tower will be completely vulnerable as long as you destroy these annoying rune turrets!” Bruce stared at the Alchemy Tower in front of him and said fiercely.

Hearing this, Kehr felt that it made sense and nodded in agreement. “Then let me destroy all these rune turrets first! After I destroy these rune turrets, we will attack again!”

Kehr took ten spears from the other soldiers. He held the ten spears in both hands and carried the rootless spears on his back. There were exactly fifteen spears corresponding to the number of rune turrets. Kehr strolled forward calmly. From his disdainful expression, he was confident.

After all, he was an intermediate Level 5 spear thrower. He believed that he could easily destroy the rune turret with the enchanted alchemy spear.

When he was 300 meters away from the rune turret, one of the rune turrets on the Alchemy Tower suddenly emitted a scarlet glow.

The next moment, a yellow and red hexagram shot out from the muzzle of the rune turret.

A ball of flaming cannonball shot out.

Seeing this, Kehr’s expression changed drastically. Sensing the magical wave coming from the cannonball, he immediately threw all the spears on his body to the ground and ran without looking back.

Boom!

An earth-shattering boom erupted behind him.

Kehr was afraid he was not running fast enough.

The flaming cannonball struck a spot dozens of meters behind him, creating a huge crater in the ground.

Kehr looked back at the huge pit behind him, secretly glad that he had reacted quickly.

Otherwise, even if he was wearing a Level 4 alchemy armor, he would be crippled for life if he was hit like this.

Mas stood at the top of the Alchemy Tower and looked at Kehr who had escaped death. He sighed regretfully.

“If this guy’s reaction was any slower, he would definitely die. The Flaming Heaven Rune is indeed powerful. Its range is as high as 300 meters and it has such a strong power. I must have made a wise decision to let the two sisters work for me.” Mas smiled as he secretly rejoiced.

Mas was very satisfied with the performance of the Flaming Heaven Rune. This magical rune was engraved in the rune turret, perfectly displaying the advantages of the turret.

At this moment, the parties on the battlefield became more and more cautious. A war was about to break out!
