Chapter 586 Hidden Danger
In fact, Purficott may have overlooked a key point, that is, the bombing of thermobaric bombs came too fast and too violently. Even if the Evil God Sect was prepared, in one Under the blow of a heavy thermobaric bomb, it would be difficult for the divine creatures they summoned to survive such an explosion.
Of course, if they had not had time to summon the divine creatures, there would be no survivors under the attack of the thermobaric bomb.
Even Sandriyon, who has now entered the realm of demigods, admitted that if she was within the explosion range of a thermobaric bomb, she could not guarantee that she would survive.
Because the damage effect of weapons such as thermobaric bombs is completely different from that of traditional artillery of this era, the damage caused after being hit is naturally very different.
Artillery in this era mostly used the kinetic energy generated by the explosion to push the shells to cause damage. Even if there were explosive shells, the damage would be limited due to various problems such as charging and explosion technology.
However, even so, even if an honorary knight is hit by a large-caliber infantry artillery, he will still be seriously injured, or even killed by a cannon.
This is why knights rely heavily on their armor to provide defense, whether in the feudal era or the industrial era.
It’s not that they are not strong enough, but that their armor defense needs to be improved to a higher level, especially after Perficott invented the steam knight armor, a cross-era equipment, the knights can even say loudly The age of knights is back!
This shows how much defense improvement a good piece of equipment can bring.
But this defense improvement is still aimed at kinetic damage.
Thermobaric bombs are precisely what defensive equipment such as armor cannot withstand.
The reason is also very simple. The thermobaric bomb will consume a lot of air when it explodes. If it is in an open, empty or ventilated environment, it will be fine, and it will not cause death from suffocation.
But the violent shock waves and sound waves generated by the explosion will attack the delicate internal organs of the human body. Even if the armor and body can withstand this level of impact, the internal organs of the human body cannot.
After all, no one can train the strength of their internal organs while exercising muscles.
And this is only the first wave of damage caused by the thermobaric bomb. If it is within the explosion range later, the high temperature and flames generated by the explosion will further cause damage to soft targets. In this case, even wearing armor will be roasted. Pots of braised pig's trotters.
Even the Steam Knight Armor designed by Perfectcott did not consider how to ensure that the knight wearing the armor inside survived in this situation.
The entire armor itself would be destroyed, let alone the knight wearing it.
Unless the Steam Knight armor can be equipped with those artifact-level defensive equipment, it may be able to resist the terrifying power of the thermobaric bomb explosion.
But even so, I am afraid that it will be either injured or disabled. The effect of the enclosed space implosion of the heavy thermobaric bomb just now is really beyond Purficott's expectation. If someone was at the center of the explosion just now, Within the damage range, Purficott felt that even the legendary knight wearing the Steam Knight armor would be blown to pieces.
Even if it were a God-killing armor, facing an explosion of this magnitude, it would have to be at least half-broken in order to withstand it.
In this kind of explosion, even if a divine creature is really summoned, it will probably be killed.
But Purficott couldn't rest assured that she would not see people alive or dead bodies. She was always worried that these evil sects were harboring evil and wanted to do something big for her.
In any case, these evil sects have fought against the church for thousands of years and survived. They don’t have this little experience and cunning. According to Purficott's prediction, they would not react at all when she had already started bombing the outer city.
If there is really no response, there are only two possible situations.
The first is that they do have some conspiracy and are preparing to give Perfectcott a hard blow.
The second is that these evil sects have given up on Langton, or are afraid of the force shown by Perficott, and have evacuated from these strongholds in the outer city.
Both possibilities are possible in Purficott's view. After all, it is an evil sect that has been able to fight against the church for thousands of years. Behind it are the old gods who planned this crisis of annihilation. You can't be too wary of them.
However, Purficott feels that the probability of the second possibility is relatively small. After all, she has already seen the divine creatures summoned by the Death Religion. Logically speaking, other sects cannot be better than the Death Religion. The sects are so different that even if there are not such powerful divine creatures, they can still arrange a divine descending.
The current silence made Purficott more and more worried that they were holding back some bad tricks.
It's like a lit firecracker, it's the scariest thing before it explodes.
On the contrary, as long as it explodes, it will not be so scary.
What Purficott is facing now is such a big firecracker that did not explode in her opinion.
“Order to carry out carpet bombing of all evil sect strongholds in the outer city. Do not be stingy with the use of thermobaric bombs. Even if the outer city is burned to a white ground, you must force the rats out of those holes. !" Purficott gave the order.
At the same time, she also asked the two knights on standby on the airship to launch an attack on the outer city. After all, sometimes it was not clear from the sky, but more details could be discovered when they got down to the ground.
So the small airships began to drop bombs more frequently. Although the number of thermobaric bombs they carried was limited, they did not say that they could not go back to resupply.
And other conventional bombs carried on the airship are not incapable of being used for bombing.
After the fierce bombing, the steam knights quickly followed up and searched the ruins after the bombing, looking for possible enemies.
If anyone is found to be moving, these steam knights will not be polite at all. The portable recoilless cannons in their hands will directly cover anything that is moving.
After all, the only ones who can survive the bombing, except for those who are extremely lucky, are enemies with strong strength.
Such an air-ground attack method is somewhat out of line for this era. Although there are indeed some masters of the Evil God Sect in those ruins, they were bombed first and now they were beaten by artillery fire. , 90% of the 100% combat strength was reduced, and there was no splash at all.
The appearance of these evil god sect masters also confirmed one thing to Purficott, that is, they have not given up on the outer city, but may actually be brewing some conspiracy.
As the bombing continued, Purficott finally sensed the aura of danger, which made her relieved.
"Activate the God-killing Armor and order the knights to cooperate with the God-killing Armor to attack in that direction!" Purficott looked at the purple light pillar rising into the sky in front of him. His eyes were solemn, but there was also a faint trace of expect.
