Five days had passed, and Commander Joel once again glanced at the Royal Knights' camp, wondering why the Furnace hadn't made a move.
Joel had never suspected that the Furnace had stolen the Level 8 giant air-blast bomb. The Furnace wasn't that kind of person... right?
On the morning of the sixth day, just after dawn, Crown Prince Tosdan invited the Pillar of Creation wizard Nadav: "Mr. Advisor, please follow me to the nearby high ground to confirm the attack route again. We must ensure that the decisive battle is foolproof."
Followed by a group of royal servants, Crown Prince Tosdan and Royal Advisor Nadav left the barracks and headed for the nearest high ground.
In the camp of the Unicorn Knights, Duke Stuart watched the court members who were surrounded by him go away.
In the camp of the Ram Knights, Duke Asino silently maintained his weapons, vowing to gain a larger fiefdom in the war.
He didn't want to be suppressed by the Duke of Unicorn again. He wanted to become the first Grand Duke of Elba and establish a principality with a certain degree of independence.
The royal court members were all high-level knights with very good physical fitness. They quickly climbed up the high ground and overlooked the Aquitaine Plain.
The Aquitaine Plain was endless, with mist floating on the distant horizon. As far as the eye could see, the ridges of the entire farmland could be seen. Unfortunately, it was too close to the front line and no one was farming.
The nobles attached great importance to farming. They were very sad to see the dilapidated farmland. They all hoped that after the war, the serfs would plant wheat fields well.
Crown Prince Tosdan listened to the staff officer's route planning while comparing the actual terrain with the possible resistance. He was a little confused. He really couldn't think of the possibility of failure of the Royal Holy Grail Knights.
However, the warning of Mr. Nadav, the royal adviser, had to be taken seriously. The Pillar of Creation's judgment on the war was very accurate.
At this moment, a team of cavalry rushed out from the valley of the Vulture Mountains in the back and headed straight for the camp of the Royal Knights of the Central Army. This was a team of messengers who were going to report important intelligence to Crown Prince Tosdan.
The captain of the messenger was very anxious. They received an important intelligence that the evil god cult had already captured the Eagle's Beak Peninsula.
The evil god acted quickly and built several temples in the northern continent, turning the Eagle's Beak Peninsula into the parish of the evil god.
The messenger learned that the crown prince went to the highlands to survey the terrain, and hurriedly left the camp and headed for the highlands.
The highlands are several hundred meters away from the camp, and it will take some time.
After leaving the camp, they galloped towards the highlands. Bypassing this hill, they could see the highest highlands nearby.
When they really bypassed the hill, they suddenly saw the sun!
The imagined highlands did not appear, only a ball of light brighter than the sun was seen!
As a royal intelligence officer, he immediately recognized what it was.
Level 8 giant air-blast bomb!
This thought flashed through his mind, and he was engulfed by the explosion of the giant air-blast bomb.
As the most terrifying killer of Xierba, the giant air-blast bomb has a core killing range of 500 meters in diameter and an effective killing range of 1.6 kilometers in diameter. It is a well-deserved killer.
The strong light instantly turned the Vulture Mountains into a white world.
Stuart, the Duke of Unicorn, was checking the report in the logistics department. The light outside the window made him look nervous, and he instinctively spread the guard chain to the attendants and logistics officers behind him.
Arsino, the Duke of Black Sheep, was in a better situation. He was inspecting the war horses in the horse farm. There were many knights training in the horse farm. When the strong light appeared, he also spread the guard chain.
Since they were able to react, proving that the target of the 8-level giant air-blast bomb was not them, then the target was...
In the upper left of Asino's vision, the light was extremely bright. At this moment, he understood that the Constitutional Army had attacked the Crown Prince Tosdan on the high ground!
The Constitutional Army's camp was more than ten kilometers away from here, and there was no need for scouts. The Constitutional Army discovered the exploding air-blast bomb at the first time.
The staff officer's hands were shaking, and he was shaking with excitement. He handed the telescope to Commander-in-Chief Joel.
Joel was just relieved that he finally came.
He saw the rising smoke in the telescope. Although he couldn't see what happened at the center of the explosion, the furnace had spent so much time laying out, it was absolutely impossible to fail.
5 days, a full 5 days, the furnace must be lurking in the Knight Command. I don't know if the furnace has taken down the crown prince and the two dukes together. It would be great if all the nobles on the East Elba front could be eliminated in one fell swoop.
I don't know why the furnace didn't detonate the giant air-blast bomb in the center of the camp. Even if it cleared out the ordinary knights, it would be a perfect ending for Joel.
At a certain moment before, when Crown Prince Tosdan and Royal Advisor Nadav were looking forward, a starlight lizard appeared behind them.
The starlight lizard lifted its concealment and opened its mouth. In its mouth was a giant air-blast bomb.
The terrifying explosion occurred at the top of the high ground. Tosdan and Nadav had no time to react at all, and were swallowed by the violent explosion one meter behind them.
Tosdan didn't even have the chance to release the protective chain, and Nadav didn't have the chance to use the exquisite forbidden technique of the Pillar of Creation.
The most skilled wizard in hiding in history, the North Scorpio Tiger Wizard, demonstrated the strongest ability to hide and sneak attack.
Within 500 meters, the top of the highland was directly cut off. All the people on the highland, including the honorable 7th-level Knight Crown Prince Tosdan, the Pillar of Creation Wizard Nadav, the royal attendants, and the staff officers of the Royal Holy Grail Knights, were swallowed up by the core explosion area of the giant air-blast bomb in an instant.
If the Constitutional Army launched this giant air-blast bomb, Tosdan and Nadav would have had a chance to react. The Constitutional Army needed a special 8th-level artillery, or bombs from an airship, and two or three shots would be good enough.
However, this was a sneak attack by the furnace.
The 500-meter core explosion area was reduced to ashes, and there was no standing person or tree in the 1.6-kilometer effective killing area.
In the Knights' camp, the wall in the direction of the highland was completely blown away, and the knights near the periphery suffered casualties.
The explosion ended quickly, and the highland fell into silence. Instead, the sound of broken bodies falling to the ground continued to be heard in the distance.
The two knight teams rushed out of the damaged camp like crazy and rushed to the high ground.
The smoke and dust dissipated, revealing human figures. Unicorn Duke Stuart saw the furnace picking up relics on the flattened mountain top.
The entire highland was cut off by more than 200 meters, leaving a concave platform on the top of the highland.
"Furnace! Furnace! Are you crazy?"
Carloman XVI's favorite son, the queen's only son, the crown prince of the royal family, the emperor of the empire after Carloman XVI's immortality in the royal plan, Tosdan, died at the foot of the Vulture Mountains, died in the explosion of a giant air-blast bomb, and died in the hands of the furnace!
The hot wind blew away the thick smoke, and Stuart saw the cold eyes of the furnace. What a pair of eyes full of hatred...
