How to restore morale? It ultimately comes down to the word "victory."
However, the earlier drop in morale was not due to an actual failure, but rather a premonition of failure.
To restore morale, it was enough to reignite everyone's hope for victory.
Under Ye Zhongming's command, the previously unused Annihilation Type II magic crystal cannons launched their first attack today.
The ten colossal cannons, resembling monsters, did not target the powerful beings of the Temple of Dawn, nor did they target Yangos or the Holy Maiden. Their targets were merely ten ordinary Temple Warriors.
These ten locations were aligned on the same horizontal line, each separated by equal distances. Viewed from the city walls, they looked like ten vibrant red flowers, dazzling and visually striking.
This time, it was the posthumous children and Cloud Summit warriors who cheered, their previously low morale soaring once again at that moment.
Indeed, the Ice Crystal Road was terrifying, but so what? Did the posthumous children lack weapons on their walls? Especially with this magic crystal cannon that came from another civilization. The last attack on the giant dragon had not made much of an impression; they only knew it was powerful. But now, seeing its effect on ordinary warriors was utterly overwhelming—how could they not be excited!
"If only there were more! If we had five hundred, we could blast them to death! Even shooting against the Power of the Gods wouldn't scare us!"
Hongxiang slapped the city wall vigorously, muttering regretfully.
Hearing this, all the Cloud Summit people curled their lips.
They knew better than anyone how difficult it was to manufacture these ten Annihilation Type II magic crystal giant cannons.
It was nearly a month and a half of sleepless nights for the Cloud Summit people, halting all other manufacturing tasks to get them built! If Le Da Yuan and the others weren't evolvers, they would definitely have worked themselves to death!
These were the most advanced and powerful magic crystal weapons currently available at Cloud Summit Villa, which also indicated that the manufacturing process was the most complex.
The higher the level, the more refined the materials required for manufacturing, and the consumption of manpower, resources, and time became terrifyingly high.
If it weren't for Ye Zhongming, this super craftsman, providing support, if there weren't a belief to fight against ninth-level experts, and if there weren't the unlimited supply of magic crystals from the wealthy backing of Cloud Summit, then in such a short period, not only would it be difficult to produce ten Annihilation Type II magic crystal giant cannons, but even forming a single one would be challenging.
Think about how long it took Le Da Yuan in his past life to make such a large-scale cannon? According to Ye Zhongming's estimates, it was at least five years into the apocalypse before that type of magic crystal cannon was purchased and installed by various factions, and even until before Ye Zhongming was reborn, that type of cannon capable of threatening ninth-level life was only one level ahead of Annihilation Type II, maybe even just half a level.
It can be said that in this timeline, Ye Zhongming, along with Cloud Summit and Le Da Yuan, had already created a small miracle.
Manufacturing five hundred Annihilation Type IIs? Under the condition of ensuring that all other manufacturing tasks at Cloud Summit were running normally, producing three in a month would already be considered efficient!
After all, even though Le Da Yuan's laboratory had been desperately expanding its workforce, due to the need to maintain the confidentiality of core technologies, the number of core technicians was limited. Even with new recruits who had passed multiple tests, the speed of increase remained extremely slow, making mass production nearly impossible under these circumstances.
The counterattack from the Royal City, while suppressing the cheers from the Temple of Dawn, did not stop their offensive.
