023 The Erosion of the Battle
"I'm back.... My.Master! ”
In response to the scorching ruby that began to come alive and warm in her ears, the flames as deep as dusk excitedly formed a whirlwind of flames with the wind, surrounding and enveloping Ovia.
By the time the flames had cleared, Ovia was dressed in a crimson knight's outfit, with long black gloves and arm guards on her hands. Pulling out the gorgeous dark red and black sword at his waist, the Broken Sky Wings, the dark flames hanging from the sword body brought a string of ripples in the air.
"It's been 8 years.... Partner! Ovia said with a faint smile
In the center of the connection between the blade of the Broken Sky Wings and the gauntlet, the red gem shone several times in a row, as if in response to Ovia's greeting.
"So, what's next...."
Ovia's feet rose a unique six-pointed star-shaped ancient Belka-style magic array
"Dragon God Summon!"
The space behind him began to vibrate and distort, and a gap in time and space began to gradually crack. Then, the white dragon stirred its wings of flames out of it, the same color as the flames used by Ovia.
The magic guide used by Ovia, the Ruby of the Scorching Sun, is a small part of Raphael's crystal nucleus as the main body, and in a certain form, Ovia and Raphael also have an intermittent contractual relationship, which is the main reason why Ovia can summon Raphael.
And another reason is that Camillo cooperates with Raphael, and Kamiyu, who is good at wide-area magic, can only be the party protected by Raphael, and if Ovia and Raphael cooperate, she will become the strongest dragon knight ever!
Jumping lightly onto Raphael's back, Ovia stared into Kamiyu's eyes
"Master, command?"
A slight smile appeared on Kamiyu's slightly pale face
"Do you need to talk about that? Please stay by my side..."
"Hmph," Ovia chuckled reassuringly
"The order was indeed received...."
"Woo~woo~~" Raphael felt the familiar force behind him (originally the same amount of force as his own) and turned around and let out an intimate whine.
Gently stroking Raphael's cold, metallic scale armor, Ovia said with infinite emotion
"Hehe.... Thank you... Raphael, thank you for always taking my place, always guarding Kamiyo's side when I was away. ”
"Brother...."Fett, who had been untied, desperately hugged Kamiyu from behind, although the appearance of Ovia made her feel a little uneasy, but now she can't take care of this, as long as the person in front of her is okay, it is her greatest wish.
It has to be said that Reslyn is a very trustworthy person, and after the World Realm Tree was summoned, Reslynn untied Fett, Naye, and Signor. Perhaps, now that the World Realm Tree has been successfully summoned to the present world, he has obtained almost the strongest power, and he has no fear.
"Fett... Lighter, I almost can't breathe..."Kamiyu sighed a little at the moment about her mother's strength.... Fit's arm strength seems to be already moving in the direction of his mother.
"Don't... No.. To—" Fett whispered in a crying tone, and the strength of his arm tended to increase
"It's great that my brother is still alive... It's wonderful...."
"Fett, if you keep pushing hard like this, maybe Kamiyu will really hang up." Naye and Signaw quietly surrounded him, pretending to be kind enough to gently pull Fett away.
"Really, we all thought Leslin had killed you!"
"I'm sorry... I'm worried about you..."
Just as Kamiyu was about to say something, the World Tree that had descended into the world began to mutate.
A singing voice like a holy song emanated from the World Realm Tree, and the pale yellow magic began to emanate from the entire tree like a splash of sparks, and gradually the surrounding space began to be filled with rich magic....
Outer space, the total flagship of the Authority fleet
"Your Excellency..."
"I know how to order, order the ground forces to launch a general offensive immediately, I don't care how many casualties there will be, no matter what, we must stop Reslin!" Marshal Largo was also ruthless, almost roaring on the bridge to give the order.
"Yes!"
"Your Excellency.... Make up your mind! If you use the iridescent cannon...", Admiral Ofresha whispered in the ear of Marshal Largo
Hearing Ofresa's suggestion, Marshal Largo couldn't help but shudder, and after hesitating for a while, he shook his head.
"This is a last resort, and you should never use it until you have to. Moreover, by now, if the rainbow cannon is to be used, the ground forces will not have enough time to completely evacuate! So, we have to trust the lads on the ground. ”
"But... In the unlikely event that the assault fails, it doesn't matter if we sacrifice our lives, because the mission of our Authority is to maintain peace and tranquility in all dimensions, even if we risk our lives. But what about ordinary people living in the realm of various dimensions? We can't let them be buried with us for the sake of so-called reserve and pride! ”
"Hmm~~" Ofresha's words made Largo fall silent.
"Report, the World Tree Tree Abnormality Occurred...."
"The dimensional fleet and the ground forces have sent reports... The enemy forces, which had been disconnected, began to regain their formations and began to engage in organized resistance and counterattacks. At the same time, the combat power of the enemy's individual forces began to increase.... The problem in terms of the dimensional fleet is not big, it is still within the range that the troops can withstand, and the pressure on the ground forces is very huge.... According to the growth trend of the opponent's combat power, it may not take more than 3 hours to see the battlefield collapse. ”
The information from the messenger sent both Largo and Ofresha into a deep groan
"It seems that the appearance of the World Realm Tree has activated the defense system."
"I didn't expect this to happen at this time..."
"It seems that Reslyn has already counted all this."
"Report, Your Excellency Marshal, there was news from the Magic Sect just now, according to calculations, a large amount of high-dimensional energy is pouring out from the World Realm Tree to impact the balance of the World Realm, and when the energy concentration breaks through the critical value, a huge dimensional earthquake will erupt, and all the surrounding dimensions will be destroyed." One bad news after another came, and it felt like the situation was already in dire straits.
"Has the Department of Wizarding deduced how long it will take to reach this critical value?"
"I can't calculate the exact time, but roughly speaking, we only have 3 hours."
"Your Excellency Marshal.... About the proposal just now—" Ofresha asked again in a low voice
"I hope God will forgive us.," Marshal Largo sighed helplessly
"Do what you want. However, until the last moment, I still hope that it is better not to use it. ”
"I understand...."
With that, Ofresha turned around and ordered
"The debugging of the rainbow cannon is ready to begin, the activation of the mana begins, the coordinates are entered after the energy is filled, and when everything is ready, the launch code will be handed over to me and Marshal Largo, and at the same time, this order will also be conveyed to the second flagship [Zeus]!"
"Rainbow Cannon....?" The person who received the order was obviously stunned after hearing this, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time
"Kong Cao, what are you doing here? Don't hurry up yet! ”
"It's... Be! After replying with a panicked salute, Sora Cao turned around and ran to the communication station, stumbling and almost falling to the ground because he was too panicked.
In the dark night sky, the stars were replaced by sparks bursting in the sky, and the roar of the explosion broke the silence.
On the ground, the desolate battlefield was full of craters and bullet marks after bombing, and teams of artillery aviation magicians were desperate to carry out high-intensity and indiscriminate bombardment of the areas that could be seen on the ground.
Finally waiting for the shelling to stop, a string of mages clearly not dressed in the uniforms of the Authority's armed forces emerged from the crater.
"Damn! Although he is a mercenary, he is now from a country, do you want to kill his own people? These fucking Authority bastards! One of the mercenaries opened his mouth and began to curse.
"Looks like the Authority fuckers are starting to go soft... Next, let them see what pure masters are~~" Another rough-looking mercenary said with a wild laugh
"Don't cry, don't make noise, don't be upset, don't be sad!" The blade of the deputy commander. Rakan (again, this isn't a bug man) slashes down a frantic Heroic Spirit that pounces on him, and then the conversation is turned out
"Isn't that what we mercenaries are all about? We are Lost.Numbers (see note at the end for details) and no employer would ever count us among their own. Throw it away when it's gone, that's us mercenaries! ”
Rakan suddenly formed a magic dagger in his hand, turned and threw it out, hitting a Heroic Spirit who wanted to sneak up on him from behind.
"When we die, we will find someone to add that we are not the only mercenaries, and there are people everywhere in this world who do murder and collect money."
"Deputy Regiment Commander, the Administration has just sent a message that an order has been issued from the General Headquarters that the all-ground forces must break through the enemy's defenses within two and a half hours to launch a general attack."
"What are you kidding.... Now that we are all too busy to take care of ourselves, we still have the strength to launch a general attack? "The Authority's order gives everyone a sense of fantasy.
"There is no way, since the money has been collected, I have to try to fulfill the employer's requirements, but the extension fee will not be less. Besides, the world is gone, and even if we have money, we have nowhere to spend it. So, I'm sorry everyone, everyone is here to give me your life, take this place as your own grave, I wonder if you have thought about your own epitaph? Rakan said self-deprecatingly
"Deputy Commander, the lines at this time are generally not to be said, [If you want to escape, just run away, leave it to me here!] ]! ”
"What an idiot! Aren't all the unfilial sons here who do not hesitate to kill people for the sake of money? Hahaha...."
"Hahaha...," the mercenaries began to laugh wildly.
"However, shouldn't these lines be said by the regimental commander? Why didn't the head of the regiment disappear in the morning? ”
"Commander~~" Rakan looked at the opposite side of the flickering fire, and said softly
"In order to become the king of the pirates, the head of the regiment has already embarked on a journey to find One.Piece early in the morning!"
“.....”
"What a stupid thing to say, Deputy Commander...."
"Ha Lu Ha ....."
............
"Looks like we're surrounded?"
Tempest and his party are surrounded by Heroic Spirits near Valhalla's Energy Center.
"Doesn't seem like there is an option to surrender?" Zafira said as she looked warily at the Heroic Spirits who had slowly raised their weapons
"The dishonorable end of being captured is not my interest!" Fleisch, who has always been known for his seriousness, made a joke that the formula was more in line with his style.
"There's really no way~~" Fleich took out the Iron Cross from his arms
"I'll create opportunities for you to stand out in one breath..."
"No kidding, how can you be alone?" Vita immediately interrupted Fleisch's words.
"Listen to me!" Fleisch snorted softly
"If you want to break through the encirclement, you must use your excellent breakthrough ability, and besides, I have a killer weapon, and I am not afraid of many people. Also, don't talk nonsense with me! Everyone has their own responsibilities, and if that Valhalla system can't be stopped sooner, I don't know how many lives will be dissipated because of it. And this is where I do my part! Fleisch's unshakable words silenced everyone.
"Don't die, if you let Signor lose such a good subordinate, I will have a troubled conscience for the rest of my life!" Tempest's words were an endorsement of what Fleich was about to do.
"Thank you!" After saying that, Fleisch kissed the cross medal in his hand
"By the way, grandfather....[Hades], EX.Model certification."
Hades' gun has a plug-in switch in the middle.
Fleisch slowly put the cross inside.
At the same time, under the tree of the world....
"Although it is not my intention to inherit this responsibility, but since I have inherited it, I will be responsible for the responsibility to the end, and I will never back down,...." Kamiyu spread the three pairs of white wings behind him
"I am... The first-level god agent is not limited - Kamiyu Hollowin. Now we will make a negative judgment on the reshaping of the world realm by the world of the world..."
