How to Storm a Castle Without Siege Ladders? (Part 2)

Bang!

In an instant, a violent explosion rang out before the castle walls.

Clatter!

Along with the blast, one of the drawbridge chains that had been pulled taut snapped at once.

"Did she miss?" Kylin, hiding in the arrow tower, looked on in uncertainty.

"This is bad, Young Master Kylin. They're planning to use a transcendent archer to shoot through all the chains!" Carlo's retainer immediately realized what was happening, his expression changing slightly.

He finally understood why the enemy had yanked so fiercely on the drawbridge: to pull the chains straight and make them easier for the transcendent archer to snap.

"Cap, what do we do now?" Kylin was no fool, and he understood immediately.

"Young Master Kylin, there's nothing we can do. Not only are the enemy bombarding the walls with catapults, but if we dare send the Longbowmen out of the towers, they'll be shot dead by the enemy's transcendent archer at once. An archer capable of imbuing arrows with Battle Qi is absolutely a peerless marksman, one in ten thousand!" Cap explained.

Yet seeing the anxiety on Kylin's face, he continued to reassure him. "But rest assured, Young Master Kylin. Even if they lower the drawbridge, without siege ladders, they definitely won't be able to climb up!"

"Besides, our castle gate is unbreakable. It's plated with iron on the outside—even those crossbow bolts won't pierce it!"

Hearing this, Kylin finally relaxed by more than half, his expression returning somewhat to normal.

While the two spoke in the tower above, Vivian had already fired four arrows in succession, each striking a drawbridge chain with unerring accuracy.

Rumble!

With a thunderous crash, dust billowed outside Carlo Castle's gate as the five- or six-meter drawbridge, no longer held by its chains, came crashing down.

"They really pulled it down!"
