Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

It was soon the end of the month, and before the first heavy snow fell, the winter celebration that made the whole city happy finally kicked off.

During the three-day festival, in addition to the park and target competitions, several drama performances and folk rugby competitions organized by the Ministry of Culture were also very popular. The drama actors and ordinary civilians were carefully trained by Ash. The rugby player became a "star" with a status comparable to that of a combat hero in the army in Starfire City for a time. He would attract a group of fans to surround them wherever he went.

By the last day of the celebration, the military parade and live-fire exercises were all ready and were about to kick off.

When Harvey came to the parade ground on the river bank, he looked up and found that the city wall not far away was already crowded with people coming to watch. The towering city walls that were several miles long were crowded with people. It was estimated that six or seven thousand people would be present. ——The remaining large number of people who did not seize the high point of the city wall in advance would go out before dawn and ride their bicycles to the garrison area on the other side of the Ice Field River. Through the river bank, you should also look at this huge ritual scene from afar .

Yesterday, the cold wind had been blowing all day, and it also cooperated very much and stopped at noon. Dozens of huge floating targets were erected in the middle of the river early, which will become the most important attacks on imaginary enemies in the military parade exercise. , endure the baptism of gun guns like storms.

According to the pre-arrangement, the interior of these floating targets was filled with a large amount of alchemy explosive mixed with dragon flame powder in advance. A lot of alchemy explosives were also buried in the river bank area to help add momentum to the cannons when firing.

As the supreme ruler of Spark City, Harvey naturally could not squeeze on the city wall as far away as the people watched the ceremony. The river bank was next to the city wall and a row of stands of varying heights were built in advance before the celebration. Except for the city lord himself, he was located in the center. In addition to the highest tented stand, there are also a large number of slightly shorter stands to accommodate officials and nobles who came from all over the southern border to attend the coronation ceremony.

"Your Majesty, the entire Northern Army is in place, waiting for your order to officially start the military parade!" Pierce changed into a brand new commander uniform, held the sword on his waist with one hand and knelt down to Harvey on one knee.

Harvey nodded and said lightly, "Let's start."

Immediately, a personal guard walked to the alchemy communicator and ordered loudly: "Your Majesty has an order! Start the military parade! Fire cannons!"

Half a minute later, twelve deafening neat cannons exploded, echoing over the entire ice field river, terrifying the birds in the mountains and forests in the distance, and flying high. All the nobles and officials who were still whispering to each other. All of them were silent and looked at the soldiers in the middle of the stage.

Guided by the officer's loud whistle, the North Army Ace Battalion walked towards the stands with neat steps. Passing through the city wall along the way attracted loud and warm cheers from the people from high places - these soldiers were the first to join the pioneering leader Although many of the veterans were not successfully promoted to the position of officer due to their own cultural level, they were still more or less the medals of merit in a certain battle or were known as combat heroes.

Then the Second and Third Battalions of the Main Battles lined up along the city wall in turn. The people's cheers and applause came one after another, and they did not stop for a long time. Whenever soldiers from a combat unit passed by the high platform where Harvey was located, they were in the officer's Under the guidance of the gesture, the soldiers would turn around and look up, clench their fists with one hand, and greet Harvey with the unique military salute gestures in the north.

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the North! Long live the people!"

"The Northern Army is victorious!"

Harvey couldn't help feeling a little excited, and stood up and waved to the soldiers under the stage who were staring at him. This made the people on the city even more excited, and many soldiers in the team became red. His eyes were even shouting at Harvey at the top of his lungs.

In addition to the defense forces that must be stationed in various places, the total number of soldiers participating in the parade was about 5,000. After all, they were lined up to receive inspection by Harvey and the people, the highlight - the live-fire exercise stage.

After all the drill staff were in place, Harvey walked to the alchemist and ordered loudly: "I announce that the live-fire exercise has officially begun!"

A bird's chirping, much sharper than a normal whistle, suddenly rang out, which was the first instruction for everyone to prepare for shooting.

Twenty magic powered cannons set up against the base of the city wall raised the barrels, and the gunners desperately shook the base winch, pointing the muzzle directly at the giant target in the center of the river 800 meters away - this is the artillery on weekdays The shooting distance that is most familiar in training and actual combat is almost difficult to miss even if you don’t rely on the shooting ruler just by visualizing it.

The artillery battalion commander Bobcat stood in the command position and rubbed his hands. He habitually stretched out his thumb and pointed his eyes at the target in the distance, and then ordered several cannons slightly against the sides to calibrate the angle slightly, and then nodded to his subordinates. He said, "Everyone cheers me up! The movements are more standardized. This is not daily training. Except for His Majesty and those officials, the whole city is watching!"

A novice artillery closest to him whispered: "Boss, I'm a little nervous... I just saw my mom on the city wall."

"I'm nervous too... I've never been watched by so many people before. His Majesty also watched on the platform, and I'm going to pee..."

"If I don't hit, will I never be able to raise my head in my life? I'm afraid that people will be laughed at when walking in the city."

The bobcat angrily shouted, "Shut up everyone! Stop talking nonsense! If you want to pee, you can hit the shells into the center of the target!"

While speaking, a yellow flag was raised on the platform, and the bobcat immediately shouted, "Start load!"

The artillery soldiers immediately fell silent and almost subconsciously completed the prescribed actions that had been repeated countless times in the past. When the yellow flag on the high platform was instantly changed to a red flag, the commander's low countdown sound came out of the loudspeaker.

"Shooting preparation! Five...Four...Three..."

"Two...one! Fire!"

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

The moment the bobcat waved his arm, twenty magic power cannons emitted a huge roar at the same time, and the blazing magic light accompanied by the thick smoke from the violent burning of the dragon flame powder, shot out from the muzzle! When the people on the city wall just heard the deafening sound of cannons, the river channel 800 meters away and the river bank tidal flats had already risen to explode water columns and mud and smoke.

The smoke and dust had not completely dissipated, and the bobcat squinted and looked at it, "Has it all hit?"

No one answered him, only he heard the city wall above his head quiet for a few seconds, then there was an extremely fanatical cheer and shout.

Dozens of fixed floating targets in the middle of the river have disappeared at this moment... Only a large amount of debris is left to rush downstream with the river water.
