"Grandpa was right. Anti-Air Ballistas could only defend against ordinary high-altitude targets, so Kurd City needed stronger anti-air weapons."
Medivh wholeheartedly agreed. He clapped his hands and had the Minotaur Skeleton drag over an even more advanced anti-air weapon.
It was a much larger, more fantastical Ironclad Vehicle. As Magic Runes surged, its walls and roof unfolded, revealing an Alchemy Ballista Cannon inside the carriage. Its design looked magical and incredibly complex.
"This is an Alchemy Ballista Cannon designed and built by the Kurd Magic Alchemy Institute. I've named it the Sky Bow."
Medivh proudly introduced the Alchemy Ballista Cannon while pointing to a group of Mage Skeletons calibrating and operating it.
"It looks incredible!"
Draven knew nothing about alchemy, but just from its appearance, he could tell this Alchemy Ballista Cannon was no ordinary weapon.
"Armor-Piercing Module loaded!"
"Curse of Bleeding applied!"
"Fire Enchantment ready!"
"Guidance System in place!"
"Target locked. Awaiting attack order!"
As the Mage Skeletons worked through a series of operations, they prepared a specially made bolt inside the Alchemy Ballista Cannon. Armor-Piercing Technique was applied to its tip, Curse of Bleeding to its shaft, Fire Element energy was packed inside its body, and Guidance Technique was applied to its tail.
The main operator locked onto an eagle soaring high overhead and waited for Medivh's next instruction.
"Fire!"
Medivh swept his hand downward. At his command, the main operator immediately activated the attack rune.
The specially made bolt shot from the Alchemy Ballista Cannon, tracing a fiery path through the air. It struck the fast-flying eagle with pinpoint accuracy and exploded into a cloud of fire high above.
"Whoa, that eagle sure died for a good cause!"
Using an Alchemy Ballista Cannon to shoot an eagle felt like using an anti-aircraft cannon to kill a mosquito.
