Chapter 1309: Thunder
Since the outbreak of the war on the Western Front, the idea of the Lord of the Sky has changed greatly from before the war.
Its past knowledge of humanity has been largely derived from various war reports and the Holy See Council, and aside from the obvious scornful remarks of bugs, the lack of enough warrior-type awakened people in humanity is basically the consensus of all the Maharajas. Their promotion is on par with their clansmen, but their abilities cannot be determined in advance, which makes the overall strength of the human race extremely unstable.
As for the males who have no magical powers, they are purely an addition to the battlefield, equivalent to the inferior members of the race. And the latter was completely abandoned after the first battle of the divine will, and he was not even qualified to participate in the war, at most he could only be used as hard labor, which can also be seen from this The huge difference in strength between the two clans.
The Heavenly Sea Realm, on the other hand, has evolved more thoroughly, whether it is the sea ships that devour the continent or the most basic warriors, they all have a highly similar magic, as if they were specially designed for war. Even the evil beasts that were eroded and controlled by them had many of them grow into demonic bodies, and they were undoubtedly the strongest of the four clans.
Because of this, after the end of the Second War of Divine Will, the Fragment of Human Inheritance has been regarded as a treasure by the higher-ups.
This is also the reason why Ersluk's last words caused an uproar in the Holy See.
But now, Hekzod has come to realize more and more that that is not necessarily an exaggeration.
If the humans' use of flames beyond their expectations was not enough to arouse the king's vigilance, the new enemy weapon discovered by the clansmen two weeks ago was a different matter entirely.
The human male, who is seen as an add-on, takes to the skies without the help of a witch and thanks to a strangely shaped iron bird!
When it first heard the news, its first reaction was that it was impossible.
Since ancient times, apart from birds and beasts, the sky has always been the domain dominated by demon supporters, and the saying that the gods come from outside the sky has made the sky above the sky covered with a layer of sacredness. How could those races that didn't even have magical power be involved in this holy realm!?
However, there was more than one witness, and Hekzord, who had managed to accept this, realized that the ascension of humanity may not only be related to fire.
Yes, it has begun to tend to the scourge of silence to say an astonishing "ascension theory" - I am afraid that the nightmare will perceive this possibility before it decides to go deeper into the realm of consciousness to find the answer.
After all, the rate of evolution shown by humans is simply too fast.
You know, there is no news about the Iron Bird in Ersluk's report, and if they had possessed this weapon at that time, there is no reason to hide it and use it now. The only explanation is that in less than a year, human change has nearly expanded from the ground to the sky.
Such a huge mutation can only be explained by upgrading.
Once the male can also become the main force in the war, the human war potential will undoubtedly increase significantly, which may be the real warning contained in Ersluk's final message.
Fortunately, compared to the flames, Hekzod is much more familiar with the sky, and the iron bird created by the other party is not much more powerful than the dinosaur, as long as it is here, the sky will not be touched by the rest of the people!
This offensive will certainly not suffer a setback like the last one.
This self-confidence is not to be taken lightly - to this extent, it is undoubtedly foolish to underestimate the enemy.
Its confidence comes from its name.
Because it is the Lord of the Heavens!
- After passing through the door, the Lord of the Sky has appeared at the edge of the island.
Along with them, there are also parasitic eye guards who never leave their bodies - if eye guards are one of the rare species, then parasitic eye guards are even more precious resources. Inspired by an underworld civilization, this technology requires the sacrifice of a Promoter to merge with the Eyeguard, which, if successful, will become an empty shell that bears the soul and the latter will gain the ability to move freely.
Despite the high cost, Hekzod did not hesitate to throw it into the front line and follow him. This is the only way to restrain the other key target mentioned by Ersluk: a witch who can strike at a very long distance.
The image of the witch did not appear in its mind until it landed on the island, meaning that the only human rival that could threaten it was not on the island.
At the same time, it didn't notice any sight looking this way.
There's no better time than now.
Hekzod didn't hesitate anymore and decisively unfolded the full form of the Twisted Gate!
The big black hole opened up behind him, and soon spread to a width of dozens of paces - any natural danger would become meaningless in front of this door!
Red mist erupted, and the high-rank promoter Sissis was the first to appear in front of him, "My lord, your troops are ready. ”
"Take my orders, take this island, and kill all the rebels you see!"
"As you wish!" Sissis let out a shriek, as a psychic warlock who had undergone three promotion rituals, this whistling sound was enough to make a human who did not wear a divine stone collapse on the spot, and even if he had, he would fall into a trance due to the mental shock. It was also a call to attack, and when the whistling sounded over, a large number of protozoites and symbiotes swarmed out of the warped portal and swooped down towards the center of the island!
Humans' fire crossbows are extremely long-range, and as long as they can close the distance, these new symbiotes can definitely break through the opponent's defenses in one fell swoop.
Soon the vanguard crossed the periphery of the island and approached the human town.
However, the exchange of fire did not ring out for a long time.
This surprised Hekzord.
It was not easy to put the opponent on the same level as the race, what was the reason for such an omission? Could it be that they still did not realize that their position had been invaded!
"Your ......Excellency," a quarter of an hour later, Sissis hurried back, "The inner city has been occupied by us, but ...... No human traces have been found, and this is already an empty city!"
"What did you say?" said Hekzord's glare.
"There are still many unfinished buildings in the city, and it seems that they have just been erected, and they are afraid that they abandoned the Grand Ducal Island a day or two ago. ”
So...... The ships that the sentinels observed were not transporting troops to the island, but the evacuation team?
But - how is this possible?
The human did this as if it knew it was about to attack Grand Duke Island! The problem was that it had deliberately made the army avoid all the towns, and every route was checked by the Eye Guards. The human laborers who are most likely to leak secrets are kept under the centralized supervision of their subordinates, isolating all possibility of communication with the outside world. Even if the other party notices something wrong, they shouldn't have withdrawn so quickly!
Where did the news come from?
Before it could think about it, a deafening boom erupted in the middle of the island, and in an instant, the entire ground trembled.
An extremely bright fireball lit up the hazy day, mixed with billowing black smoke rising into the sky, and then a violent wave of air swept through the entire inner city in an instant, and the raging smoke and dust engulfed the warriors in the city in the blink of an eye.
