Chapter 634: Chapter 389: Becoming the Most Villainous Antagonist Starting Today (Part 2)

He even fantasized about a gang coming to support them. He would never have thought this way in the past, but now, even if just a few squads from the Xiao Organization came to help draw fire, it would be fine. Whoever it is, just come help!

"Boom!"

The explosion of the Magic-guided Cannon rang out beside him, and the Captain of the Guard felt like his head was buzzing, as if he had tinnitus.

Beside him appeared a corpse scattered everywhere. The armored man had talked with him earlier, but now he had become like this. He opened his mouth, wanting to shout in rage, but could not make a sound.

Miss...

They could no longer care; under such chaotic bombardment, he couldn’t even care anymore.

He could only hold onto the broken carriage, forcibly continuing to keep it protected behind him.

Whoever it is, come save me, come save Miss, whoever will do!

And at that moment, the musket, bow and arrow, and cannon simultaneously ceased their attack. The Captain of the Guard dared not reveal himself; he feared it was merely the City Guard Army changing ammunition.

Yet minutes later, when no more attacks came, he boldly stuck out his head, only to see, under the afternoon sun, the ambushing City Guard Army falling in waves.

People clad in black robes with red clouds stood one by one atop the surrounding buildings, overlooking below.

"Xiao... Xiao Organization..." he struggled to look up, but the sunlight was too bright, and the aftereffects of the tinnitus left him dizzy.

"Finally, you finally came..."

"Ah!"

The scream rang out; this was a massacre, a slaughter against the City Guard Army.

The City Guard Army ambushing here wasn’t strong in hard power, just that they brought enough weapons; this was the City Lord’s allocation. Because of the ambush here, more weapons and attire could be brought, while attacking the Alben Family was a blitzkrieg, everything needed to be light and simple.

And weaponry, especially large machinery, after facing directional problems, their disadvantages were fully exposed!

Headless bodies were pushed down from the buildings. At this time, Xue Dili instead showed interest in observing the world’s weaponry and technological level.

Muskets... due to them being magical, the projectile’s initial speed can reach 5 times Mach, but loading was too slow; even the most skilled musketeers had an interval of several minutes between each shot.

Because this musket never departed from the simplest principle of a three-eyed musket from beginning to end.

As for the cannons...

Xue Dili glanced over, big, dumb, black and bulky, somewhat like the museum’s red-clad cannons, similarly very backward, only more stable because they were magic-triggered compared to red-clad cannons, with a projectile initial speed several times faster.

Yet, loading and magic array charging was even more troublesome.

Xue Dili assessed, although the power had increased quite a bit, overall military technology wasn’t even at WWI level, perhaps even lower.

Like something from the Ming Dynasty that transmigrated over.

Right...

Xue Dili slapped his forehead, then remembered, Mephisto himself was from the late Ming Dynasty, only transmigrating to this world.

In the eyes of a late Ming person, perhaps muskets and red-clad cannons were the most powerful technologies.

Just like for certain outer disciples of some Tang Sect, the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles and Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus were the world’s most powerful weapons, but in truth, the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles were far inferior to the three-eyed muskets of the same period, and as for Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus...

Wasn’t that thing just an ancient grenade?

Its principle was identical to a grenade, just depending on the amount of charge.

This kind of thing hadn’t been sold to the Middle East with a gas tank yet.

After all, the explosive content of a single gas tank was quite exaggerated; no matter how much charge the Buddha’s Fury Tang Lotus had, it wasn’t as much as a gas tank.

The world’s technology seemed similarly bizarre; despite hundreds of years of development, it was still muskets and red-clad cannons as the army’s strongest weapons...

It’s just... beyond words...

Having come to the Otherworld and learned the more advanced magic guide knowledge, and still wouldn’t think to improve and develop at all? Mephisto, you’re really embarrassing the Earth’s transmigrators.

"Leader, it’s already cleaned up, the ambushing personnel here generally had low combat power, but all had excellent equipment," someone said.

Xue Dili: "..."

This stuff, apart from lethality, everywhere else had issues... Xue Dili felt accepting these things was like picking up scrap.

Moreover, even the lethality, at most, would only pose a slight threat to Legends, and this was under the feature of magic array explosion being more stable than gunpowder explosion, creating such a small edge.

"Alright, let’s begin to escort the Alben family’s Miss." Xue Dili estimated this point to finally help, after all, a whole Alben convoy; where’s the Alben family convoy that’s already dead and crippled to take over now?

Riding over to the liaison convoy, Xue Dili saw massive fragments of bodies, along with sticky liquid smeared on the carriage.

Much of the property originally meant to be given to the Xiao Organization was blasted to shreds, and the entire convoy seemed to have few survivors.

Xue Dili immediately using Cursed Blood to control facial muscles, showing an anxious and tense expression, shouted loudly: "Quickly protect those still alive, and treat the wounded, medical personnel, come with me and see how Miss is, if she’s hurt!"

This urgent voice echoed in the ruins.
