Fredrinn Firecrown: The Weakest Villain

"What is that odd-looking machine they are pulling?" The soldiers on top of the wall frowned in confusion. They had never seen anything like that before so they were all puzzled.

"Stop dawdling and aim for that strange machine! It must be a secret weapon that we have never heard of!" Gunnar shouted at the soldiers.

'Just what is that thing?' Gunnar narrowed his eyes. He had a bad feeling when he saw the strange machine.

At this moment, the odd-looking weapon was suddenly activated. The array formations inscribed on its body lit up and it soon produced an ear-splitting sound.

BOOOOM!!!

A violent explosion rang out as the defensive array formation on the wall was struck. It even caused the wall to tremble!

Gunnar turned his head and saw a small crack on the seemingly impregnable 5th-tier Defensive Array Formation. 'What the hell was that?! I definitely saw something coming out from the tube of that machine, but it was too fast for my eyes to follow it… It was even powerful enough to cause severe damage to the golden energy shield!'

The soldiers were also unable to believe what they witnessed.

"There's a crack on the energy shield!"

"What?!"

"That strange weapon is that powerful!?"

While everyone was panicking, a second explosion rang out.

BOOOOM!!!

More cracks appeared on the energy shield, making the soldiers on top of the wall feel terrified.

"What is going on here?!" A stern voice drifted into everyone's ears.

They looked over and saw Fredrinn coming toward them with his soldiers. He didn't look pleased by the looks on his face.

Gunnar and the members of the guards unit immediately lined up and bowed to him.

"My lord!" They greeted in unison.

Fredrinn waved his hand at them. He then hurriedly checked the army beyond the wall. The catapults and the artillery-looking machine caught his attention. 'Is that the weapon they got from the Blue Sky Kingdom? No wonder they were willing to risk their household's reputation.' He muttered in his heart. He didn't expect to see a weapon that was similar to the artillery in his home world.

Although the design was somewhat ancient, the firepower was more destructive because of the inscriptions on the weapon.

BOOOOM!!!

The enemy fired another shot, causing more damage to the energy shield.

"Captain Gunnar, we need to destroy their siege machines! Tell the guards unit to replace the soldiers operating the ballistas! We must get rid of those weapons before the energy shield is destroyed!" Fredrinn immediately commanded after understanding the situation.

Gunnar nodded upon hearing this. He then issued a series of commands to the guards unit and the soldiers on top of the western wall.

There was no time to waste so everyone moved into action.

Fredrinn took out the Crown of Eternal Glory and wore it.

Crown of Eternal Glory [Legendary]

- Gives the wearer 1 charm attribute (♥️). Allies within a 500-meter radius will gain a significant boost in their health, endurance, stamina, strength, and Qi. They will also be immune to curses and negative status effects.

This item was perfect for the situation.

As soon as they saw him wearing the crown, the soldiers on top of the wall felt invigorated. The depressed atmosphere also vanished and was replaced with hope and confidence.

Looking at Fredrinn's figure made them feel like nothing could stop them!

"Everyone, don't panic! Lord Fredrinn is here to lead us into victory!" Gunnar was also affected by the crown's status effects.

At this moment, the guards unit had already replaced the operators of the ballistas. They aimed for the enemy's siege machines and fired continuously.

Three catapults were destroyed in that short moment and some of the enemy martial practitioners also died after being skewered by the large arrows of the ballistas.

The additional losses made Blake even more furious.

'Their retaliation has become fiercer!' Blake commanded his men to continue bombarding the energy shield with attacks. Once the defensive array formation would be destroyed, he would lead everyone to break through the western gate! With their advantage in numbers and the lack of Nascent Soul martial practitioners on the other side, their victory would be assured!

"Cavalry, prepare to charge at the gate as soon as the energy shield is destroyed! Those weaklings wouldn't be able to stop us!" Blake shouted with a fierce look.

"My lord, the western gate is opening!" A soldier shouted in surprise.

"Huh?" Blake turned his head and saw the western gate slowly open by itself. 'What the hell are those bastards thinking? Is this a trap? No, wait! What's that?!'

He narrowed his eyes and saw a small army as soon as the gate was lifted.

"Are they planning to surrender?" He lifted an eyebrow.

"Did they think that we would spare them if they surrendered?" Blake smirked coldly. He grabbed his battle axe and urged his mount to move ahead of the formation.

"Cavalry! Charge at my signal! Once the shield is destroyed, we will kill those bastards!"

The Blackcrow Household's cavalry emitted a war cry in excitement. With the promised wealth and glory from the household, they couldn't wait to tear through their enemies!

More time passed and the energy shield was already on the verge of collapse. Meanwhile, the Blackcrow Household's army had already lost 15 of their catapults. They also suffered over a hundred casualties for trying to protect the catapults and the artillery.

Blake's heart was bleeding with these losses, but it was already too late to back down. The only way to recoup their losses was to occupy the Firecrown Household's estate and collect their wealth!

With this thought in mind, Blake hardened his resolve. 'I'm going to kill all of you damn bastards to quench the fury in my heart!' He screamed internally.

BOOOOM!!!

BOOOOM!!!

BOOOOM!!!

With three more successive shots from the artillery, the energy shield finally collapsed.

Seeing this, a demonic smile appeared on Blake's face.

He lifted his battle axe and shouted. "Cavalry, charge with me! Kill them all and don't let anyone get away!"
