Boom!
A thunderous blast shook the entire Spider Nest City.
A 155mm heavy shell struck the massive Sacrificial Stone directly and exploded, instantly raising a huge fireball that engulfed the entire altar!
Countless fragments and a violent shockwave spread in all directions. The precision instrument set atop the Sacrificial Stone was blown to pieces, while nearly a hundred Purifiers standing on the altar were torn apart midair by the countless fragments, reduced to mangled bits of flesh!
The fragments and shockwave continued spreading outward like a metal storm. Purifiers farther away who were struck by shrapnel were immediately torn to pieces.
Those even farther away were thrown to the ground by the blast, blood pouring from their ears and nostrils.
Only some Purifiers patrolling dozens of meters away from the altar avoided serious injuries, though the blast still left them dizzy and disoriented.
That single shell had nearly wiped out the several hundred Purifiers around the altar!
A third had died on the spot. Most of the rest were wounded, and even those who remained uninjured now wore bewildered, terrified expressions, their minds severely shaken.
Seeing this, Shen Feng clicked his tongue in amazement.
Flesh and blood were utterly incapable of withstanding the heavy weapons of modern warfare. They were simply far too fragile.
Still, the power of this large-caliber self-propelled artillery was indeed immense. It should have been meant for indirect fire, but at this close range, he was using it as a direct-fire cannon. That made it even more absurdly powerful.
"Ah—ah—my intestines! My intestines!"
"My leg! Help me, save me!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Return fire!"
The surviving Purifiers screamed and shouted in a chorus. One uninjured Purifier guard suddenly pulled the trigger, firing a bullet toward the self-propelled artillery.
"Clang..." The bullet struck the artillery's armor
