Chapter 285: The Final Assault

by karlmaks — Four o’clock in the morning. In the giant tent of the First Army Group’s temporary command post on the eastern outskirts of Paris, the lights were still blazing. The two supreme commanders, General Mackensen and Lieutenant General Seeckt, who held the fate of the entire army group in their hands, were staring at the huge sand table map before them, their eyes bloodshot. Although both were physically and mentally exhausted, the current battle situation made it impossible for them to…

Chapter 296: We’re Getting Better

by karlmaks — Outside Paris, the smell of gunpowder and the lingering scent of negative energy hadn't completely dissipated. Inside the temporary camp of the First Army Group, busy figures were everywhere. The Instruction Assault Battalion had been resting in its own campsite these days, but apart from the wounded, daily training had not been neglected. Morin, Kleist, and others were handling various combat documents with the help of administrative officers. At the same time, they had to organize a large…

Chapter 286: Air and Ground Assault

by karlmaks — At 4:30 AM, after everyone had boarded the train, Colonel Lucas stood at the entrance of the command carriage, personally picked up a flare gun, loaded a green signal flare, and raised it high toward the dark night sky. "Whoosh—Pop!" A green signal flare, marking the start of the general offensive, burst open in a brilliant flash of light. This light was not only meant for the Armored Airship in the sky but also for all the Saxon soldiers struggling to hold the line outside the city. "It's…

Chapter 297: Achievement Unlocked

by karlmaks — Morin never expected that he would end up resembling a certain "Medal Fanatic" in his lifetime. Opposite him, Albert II obviously hadn't expected to pin so many medals on Morin in one go either. To boost morale, Albert II and the big shots of the Army finally decided to award Morin the medals on the spot. Under normal circumstances, except for medals of the level of the Blue Max and the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross, other medals were simply handed out in boxes. Their decision reflected the…

Chapter 287: Railway Gun Bayonet

by karlmaks — The devastating shockwave, like an invisible hammer, slammed viciously into the Eiffel Tower. "CLANG—!!" "CREAK—!!" The entire colossal tower shuddered violently under the terrifying impact, emitting teeth-grating metallic groans. The rows of Magic Crystals and glass windows on the exterior of the tower's summit were instantly reduced to powder as the shockwave swept past. Even Master Eiffel, floating in the air, was nearly blown away by the violent blast. He swayed unsteadily in the…

Chapter 298: Jump Ship? Accelerate!

by karlmaks — About half an hour later, the sedan slowly drove into the gate of a manor. The scale of the manor wasn't particularly grand, but everywhere revealed an understated exquisiteness, clearly showing the owner's extraordinary taste. As soon as the car stopped, a butler in a tailcoat with meticulously combed hair came forward and respectfully opened the door for him. "Good evening, Lieutenant Colonel Morin. Welcome." The butler's voice was gentle and polite. "Good evening." Morin nodded, somewhat…

Chapter 288: Beam Clash

by karlmaks — "Move quickly! We don't have time!" Beside 'Gungnir', a gray-haired Magitech Technician Chief was screaming himself hoarse at his assistants. Beads of sweat covered his forehead, but his hands were as steady as a rock. They were performing the final deployment and calibration for 'Gungnir'. This was an extremely precise and complex process. Driven by hydraulic devices, the massive gun body slowly extended from inside the carriage. The muzzle was no longer raised high as in the first…

Chapter 299: Night in Koblenz

by karlmaks — Morin sighed and sat up from the bed. He thought it was a manor servant or perhaps a bold lady who hadn't gotten what she wanted at the banquet. Rubbing his slightly stiff face and putting on his polite smile again, Morin got up, walked to the door, and opened it, ready to send the visitor away with the most courteous words. However, the person standing outside the door made all the words he had prepared stick in his throat. Under the soft corridor lights, Cecilia was standing there…

Chapter 278: Two-Pronged Approach

by karlmaks — Inside Gare de l'Est, Morin and Colonel Lucas were anxiously searching for an available firing position. The two carefully reviewed the map several times and finally found something useful. "Colonel, look here!" Morin's finger traced the map, finally stopping on the Seine River. "This railway line starts from Gare de l'Est, extends southwest, passes through several districts, and finally goes through here... Bir-Hakeim Bridge and Grenelle Bridge. Both are steel structure railway bridges,…

Chapter 289: Observation in the Dark

by karlmaks — The last time Morin saw the Eiffel Tower collapse was in the movie G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Especially in the latter, the first-person perspective of the tower collapsing, accompanied by the BGM, had shocked him for a long time. But now, witnessing this other-worldly, magitech-modified, electricity-discharging, soul-summoning "Eiffel Tower" begin to collapse after its support structure was punched through, he realized he had been shocked too…
