Andrea had just climbed onto the corner of the city wall when she saw something stunning.
A row of soldiers in the uniform of the Militia was standing on the wall, each of whom held a strange weapon—probably the flintlock that Ashes mentioned. As the demonic beasts drew near, the flintlocks sprayed flames and smoke, and the sound of gunfire rang constantly in her ears.
The weapon should be similar to a crossbow, but she couldn't see bolts shot out of it, probably because of all the smoke. The demonic beasts rushing to the front seemed to be heavily struck by something, because they all suddenly stopped and fell on the ground one after another.
However, the soldiers didn't stop to observe their shots, nor did they refill bolts into the weapons. They just kept on shooting at the enemies at a speed that was even faster than shooting with crossbows.
