Chapter 585: Philosopher's Stone?!
[Roar! Roar! Roar!]
Following the usual pattern, when the first wave of the Heavy Tank Group arrived at the Battlefield, they immediately spread out rapidly to both sides of the Plain. At the same time, they began adjusting the angle of their Gun Barrels and launched a Bombardment towards the City Wall and Infantry Phalanx that had suddenly appeared in the distance.
One after another, scorching Heavenly Origin Shells whistled out from the destructive Gunfire Flash of the Cannons, with an initial Speed of five times the Speed of sound.
This process was quite brief.
In the blink of an eye.
On the City Wall and within the Infantry Phalanx of the Alchemy Kingdom, expanding Fireballs of Explosion erupted.
The City Wall Top that was hit trembled violently, and large gaps appeared. Below, within the Phalanx, there was a chorus of Screams of Sorrow.
At this moment.
The special Gunpowder from the Demon Slayer World once again demonstrated its terrifying Power on the new Otherworld Battlefield!
"Cannons that can move by themselves?"
"You show me something new right from the start, how interesting~~"
Feng facing the constant waves of hot wind from the Explosions and the large amount of Destruction and casualties appearing around him, not only showed no Anger but seemed quite excited.
Meanwhile.
The Artillerymen on the City Wall Top on both sides quickly took action in response to such Cannon Fire attacks. Before long, Cannons returned fire without showing any weakness.
However, compared to a long wall stretching for dozens of miles, hitting Tanks that were only a few meters wide required extremely high Accuracy.
Suddenly.
A peculiar phenomenon appeared within the Infantry Phalanx below the Fortress, which had been passively taking hits.
Every fifty meters or so, a man or Woman wearing a pure White Robe was seen squatting down, using a Pen with its cap still on, rapidly drawing something on the Ground.
After they finished drawing, they quickly put away their Pens, then clapped their Palms forcefully onto the strange Circular Formations on the Ground.
[Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz]
Blue and White Electro current crackled and sparked between their Palms and the Circular Formations. Around them, white and gray Steel pillars rose directly from the Ground.
These Steel pillars were numerous, like wildly growing bamboo. After growing to a Height of about ten meters, they began connecting and piecing together.
In the blink of an eye.
Each ten-thousand-man Phalanx had one after another extremely rough-looking steel frame roof appear, blocking the Heavenly Origin Shells shot from the Heavy Tanks in the distance.
"Is that Alchemy?"
In the far rear of the Tank Group, Charlotte Oven and several other Vice Admirals and Rear Admirals of the Division watched the live Battlefield Screen Feed projected by the Transponder Snail, deep in thought.
The Intelligence gathered by Cipher Pol from the Captives of The Empire only contained some fragmented descriptions, or even just rumors, about Alchemy.
Now, seeing the performance of Alchemy firsthand, they finally had a concrete concept.
"It really is Alchemy Arrays and Alchemy!"
Im, far away in the Titan World, was naturally also paying attention to the battle situation in the Imperial Arms World. This Combat against the Alchemy Kingdom of Alkemi was particularly full of interest for him.
Im sank his Consciousness deep into his Brain and, with extremely fast Speed of thought, recalled all sorts of information about Alchemy from the Akame Manga.
Because for a moment, he really couldn't remember if such 'Professional' Alchemy had appeared in this World before.
"So that's it. In the prequel 'Zero', Dorothea, the Alchemist from the West, did use Alchemy Arrays and Alchemy during her final Duel with Leone..."
"Hmm?"
"There's even something like the Philosopher's Stone? It's actually the Core Material for Imperial Arms?"
Im 'looked' at the Manga content he had read before with surprise, thinking to himself, "So the difference between Imperial Arms and Ministerial Arms is whether or not they use the Philosopher's Stone?"
Looking at it this way, the Holy Emperor of The Empire six hundred years ago was lacking in this regard.
Because Dorothea in this Manga said that the main production area of the Philosopher's Stone was the Alchemy Kingdom in the West, and the Founding Emperor of the Empire a thousand years ago probably obtained forty-eight Philosopher's Stones through some method.
"In that case, the Value and danger Rank of the Imperial Arms World need to be re-evaluated. We need to get more Intelligence about the Alchemy Kingdom as soon as possible..."
Just as Im fell into deep thought, Historia, who was sitting beside him, asked curiously, "Husband, what are Alchemy Arrays and Alchemy?"
"Alchemy is centered around the Principle of Equivalent Exchange. It's about taking Substances of equal mass and Value, and after Understanding, Decomposition, and Recomposition..."
Im pondered for a moment, then gave a simple introduction to the basic concept.
After all, it was his Woman asking, and it wouldn't be good to be too cold and ruthless. If it were anyone else asking, he would definitely ignore them, or even teach them a lesson.
"A Supernatural profession that uses Knowledge as a Weapon? Such magical Strength actually exists!" After he finished speaking, Historia's face was full of surprise.
Not just her, but the nearby Ubuyashiki Four Sisters, Stussy, Mikasa, Levi, and others also had the same Expression.
And Im, at this moment, was regretting.
Regretting that he had used the Authority to upgrade the Medium Star Gate on the Star Gate in this Titan World.
If he could have used it on the Star Gate in the Imperial Arms World, it would definitely facilitate the rapid influx of the Large Force and greatly shorten the Time needed to complete the Conquest.
"Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, the reason Alchemy can become Supernatural seems to be by inputting 'ideas' into the Alchemy Array, guiding the Strength of the Gate of Truth to activate it. So..."
Im was instantly startled by his own speculation, and his mood sank at a Speed visible to the naked eye.
"I hope not. Even if it is, please don't come looking for trouble with us. I really can't handle that..."
He had made up his mind that he would not enter this Imperial Arms World himself, and he was considering whether he should tell his subordinates not to cause too much Commotion.
What if they caused too much Destruction to the Environment or killed too many people, and that Big Shot got angry?
Meanwhile.
More and more Heavy Tanks drove into the vast Plain in front of the Prato Mountain Range.
Although the enemy had created a Steel layer to defend against Cannonballs, in the eyes of the Auxiliary Soldiers inside the Tanks, as long as their Firepower was sufficient, they would eventually blow it apart.
"Switch to Jet Bullet!"
"Switch to Jet Bullet immediately! Penetrate the enemy's Steel layer Defense!"
The voices of the commanders echoed inside the Tanks. The Loaders quickly ejected the Sky Origin Shells and then lifted the Jet Bullets to load the Main Guns.
"Prepare, Fire!"
"Fire!"
[Roar roar roar roar...]
Nearly a thousand Tanks were spread out in various corners of the Plain, firing in batches towards the long wall and the Steel layers in the distance.
This time, shortly after the Cannonballs flew out from the Flame, they rapidly melted during their whistling flight, turning into streams of High Temperature Metal jets.
The moment they landed on the Steel layer, the surface showed signs of melting, allowing the jets to penetrate easily.
Finally, they turned into thick, High Temperature molten iron, engulfing the armored Soldiers in a small area like crashing Waves.
This scene caused the expressions of the people wearing White Robes, who only mastered Matter Decomposition and Matter Recomposition and had to rely on drawing arrays on the spot, to change drastically.
Fortunately, the Alchemy Arrays they had drawn earlier were still there, so they simply squatted down again and activated the Alchemy on them to create more Steel pillars and thicken the Steel layer.
Some people, on the other hand, directly drew Alchemy Arrays on the surface of the Steel layer and then activated Alchemy to automatically restore the damaged Steel layer.
[Bang!]
Just then, the City Gate suddenly lifted upwards, and a Cavalry Unit, with both men and Horses covered in red heavy armor, rushed out, forming a mighty crimson torrent that galloped rapidly towards the direction of the Heavy Tank Group.
The most astonishing thing was that as they galloped on horseback, they actually formed a perfect Circular Formation...
