Steel steam and flame

An indescribable feeling of fear spread all over their bodies in an instant, and it was an incomprehensible chill. Their bodies were steaming, and they all broke into a layer of cold sweat at this moment. They couldn't care less about the work and things in their hands, and they didn't stop at all. When she came down to think carefully, Shanerna turned around and ran out in the opposite direction.

She did not forget to yell, which overlapped with the major's words.

"Get out of here, now!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the clanking sound of steel colliding completely reached their ears. The sound that made the air tremble caused pain in the brain, and all the veterans' movements stopped at this moment. The system without an operator is much less resistant to this influence.

Regardless of the injury on his left arm, the major yelled for everyone to run quickly, in any direction. Several veterans were exhausted and fell to the ground. He and the remaining two captains each carried a tael. Individually, he carried it directly on his shoulders and caught up with the team in front, urging the people around him to speed up even more!

The cold wind "whistled" in through the gap opened by the artillery, passing through the flames, carrying astonishing heat, and some snowflakes were melting rapidly along the way.

The trees were shaking violently, and a lot of snow fell down, hitting the people who were trying to escape. They didn't dare to look back. In just a few seconds, the heat spreading around them and the violent collision sound already made them all aware of what happened.

A chain reaction is taking place inside the ammunition warehouse. The explosion of the artillery detonated the fragile propellant, which then acted like a torch, igniting the dangerous pile of things.

They are all standard cannonballs, and even after such a long time, due to the influence of the closed environment, many of them are not likely to be damaged in terms of quality. The power of a single cannonball can blast a huge crater with a diameter of tens of meters. The instantaneous explosion power and heat wave impact will be fatal to everyone. There are also countless detailed shrapnel, after being accelerated, each one is no less powerful than a large-caliber platinum bullet. Standard artillery shells with a charge of more than one ton generally target enemy battleship-type airships. It seems that these mobile troops on the ground have never been taken seriously.

Everyone just knows to get out of here as soon as possible. At first, I thought about hanging a blunderbuss on my body, but after running a few steps, everyone agreed and threw it away. Every time the weight is reduced, the speed can be faster, and their nervous spirits can also be relaxed a little.

The ground beneath his feet shook from side to side, and the surrounding ancient trees growing on the wreckage of the airship were all unsteady. The tree roots hanging upside down inside the wreckage broke off one after another, and the huge tree trunks lost their support and stability and fell one by one. Some veterans fell down on the way, but the major and captain could not take any more action. They were carrying people on their backs, so they could only shout from time to time in front to boost their momentum. How much specific role it can play, they have no idea at all. At least those veterans who have fallen can only choose to abandon them if they don't stand up on their own.

The pillar of fire behind him completely solidified, and the thick smoke rolled up in a huge arc in the strong wind. The impact of the explosion was still unable to withstand nature. It was completely suppressed by the blizzard and could only stir up several small whirlwinds on the ground.

The ground cracked, revealing the rusty airship armor surface. A huge explosion also arose from the ground at this moment, and a shell was finally detonated. The chain reaction was completed instantly in less than a few tenths of a second. The sound of the bombardment transferred the power of the explosion into the air, and all of it hit the people who were fleeing the area.

There are still many armored steel plates with a thickness of more than one meter on the airship wreckage that are not damaged. When everyone thought that those armored plates could withstand a little bit of the explosion power of the artillery shells. The bright flames bloomed like a fresh flower behind them. The tough armor was instantly deformed by the huge explosion power of the shells, then cracked, and finally turned into fragments, flew into the sky, and fell heavily around them. .

The energy accumulated in the ammunition warehouse burst out at this moment, and the vacuum area formed immediately expanded toward the surroundings. The visible heat was like an inescapable wall, pushing the air and snow to spread around. The heat wave carries countless sparks that have not been extinguished, and it accumulates huge pressure. When the ground was shaken by the continuous explosions, the heat wave also swept directly across the snow with temperature and strength, and the snow was squeezed down by another ten centimeters under the heat wave. The top layer of snow also showed signs of melting.

Major's team ran last, and some people did not get down in advance before the heat hit. They were hit by the heat, and their whole bodies were rolled up and flew into the air. Their bones were squeezed and crackled, and then they hit the ancient trees along the way. And more chunks of soil and steel debris were swept up from the ground, moving randomly in the surrounding space.

The whole forest was shaking, the snow was shaking off, and the leaves were making an annoying sound as they rubbed against each other. The Major and the others lay on the ground and truly felt the vibration as if the ground was about to flip over. Above the head was a series of air waves, and the explosion was far from over. In his ears, there was the sound of explosions that occupied the entire world. Some heated metal fragments flew around at extremely fast speeds in the air waves. They rubbed against the air, making a clear and soft sound, and penetrated one after another along the way. An ancient tree. No one dared to raise their heads at this moment, they could only crawl forward as much as possible.

It seems that they have left the dangerous area, many of the people crawling forward thought so. Because the ammunition is concentrated at a depth of nearly a hundred meters underground, and is located almost in the middle of the airship, it is completely surrounded by a tough and strong steel structure. Much of the force of the explosion was directed into the sky, and the impact on the surrounding areas was minimal.

Apart from the huge vibrations and the sound that almost shattered the eardrums, as long as their luck was not too bad, everyone was lying on the ground and living well.

"What's going on? How powerful can the artillery be?" Bai Bella lay on the ground, raised her head a little, and looked at the pillar of fire rising into the sky in front of her, as well as the pure and complete black smoke rolled up. ask. She suddenly felt that something big was going on in her heart, but she couldn't tell what it was exactly.

"Who knows, the enemy must have detonated something." Riel said. He couldn't think of the reason. "It must have been a last-ditch struggle to take us to death together. This is an act of suicide."

"Yes, suicidal behavior." He said as if he was sure.

Frey said nothing. The sound of the explosion had reached them and was spreading behind them at a very fast speed. Within a few breaths, the echo from the nearby mountain reached Frey's ears. The ground was shaking, but not to a negligible degree.

"I feel bad." Frey's body was shaking, certainly not because of the cold, but because of an unknown fear. He felt that the air became very oppressive at this time, as if the pressure was increasing little by little.

"Me too." It was almost the first time that Belle took the initiative to reply to Frey's words. Riel was surprised on the side.

"But I can't think of what it is specifically." She continued, "I just feel difficult to breathe. The air has indeed become much denser, as if it is about to become solid."

Riel felt the same thing from the sidelines. As for the specific things, he also had no clue.
