Chapter 144: White Dragon IV
The Dragona Empire’s army began to advance with terrifying momentum. At the same time, the cannons on top of the castle started firing in unison. Dozens of shells flew through the air, and it was easy for everyone to predict that the ground would soon erupt with loud explosions, causing considerable damage to the attacking side.
But—
“Not like that.”
In the next moment, Elios reached out her hand toward the front, where the shells were flying. Tremendous mana began to emanate from her hand in an instant.
“Wait… what is that?”
“What nonsense…”
The shells stopped in midair, as though seized by an invisible force. Seeing not one or two, but dozens of cannonballs suspended in the air, the soldiers of the Holy Empire were instantly stricken with shock. However, their expressions of surprise quickly shifted to fear.
“Are they… coming back?”
“F-Flee! The shells are heading back this way! Aaaah!”
