Chapter 165: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven
A large thick shadow suddenly appeared on the sparkling sea, and that shadow was like a soul beast that devoured everything, and even the moonlight shining on the sea surface was swallowed up in the rapid movement.
In just a dozen seconds, the shadow had already moved nearly half a nautical mile, and judging from the direction it was moving, it was actually rushing straight towards the altar.
"The Messenger has arrived!"
There was even a hint of tremor in the old voice of the fishman priest, which showed the excitement in his heart at this moment, and the priests who danced under his shouting totem worked harder, and the witches chanted louder and louder, like a needle.
The fish-man warriors who had been guarding the altar retreated down the stairs, because according to the old custom, the messenger would swallow half of the altar when he enjoyed the sacrifice.
And with Adela and the others now being tied up, there is no possibility of escaping at all.
"Female doll!Your hero won't come, I'll go first!hahahaha!"
At the last moment, Rinis didn't taunt Adela too much, and he struggled to his feet and rushed towards the edge of the altar.
It was impossible to escape, the altar was built on the edge of the cliff, at least a few dozen meters above the sea, and Rinis's move was just to find a way to die as soon as possible, because it was obviously more acceptable for him to be crushed than to be devoured by his soul.
"Bold!"
The fish-man warriors at the bottom of the stairs were furious and shouted loudly, but in the end, no one dared to rush up, for the simple reason that the huge shadow had already swam under the cliff.
Only Kusen, who was on the high platform in the distance, was unmoved, but instead showed a cold smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "Innocent." ”
And just as Rinis was about to take the final step, and the shadow at the bottom of the cliff had begun to emerge from the sea, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in the middle of the cliff.
The explosion caused Rinis to fall directly to the altar, and at the same time, it also stopped his forward momentum, and the large amount of rubble from the explosion rained down into the sea, smashing the newly emerging black shadow into the sea with a furious roar, and then quickly dived into the deep sea.
The sudden change of thought widened everyone's eyes, except for Peterley, who turned his head to stare at Adela with burning eyes, the sound and tremor of the explosion that he had just heard all too familiar.
Artillery!
Much more powerful than he had, Peterley was pretty sure that this was what Lear had sold him.
At present, there are only two known forces in this sea that have artillery, one is he Peterly, but his ship has already been captured by Jindali, or he has been dragged into the deep sea by the sea dragon, so there is no need to question the identity of the person who came.
Adela nodded heavily at Peterley, and although she was still deliberately calm, judging by the glitter in her eyes, her heart was not as calm as it seemed.
"What's going on!?" Cusson roared in a thunderous rage, the destruction of the sacrifice was an unforgivable thing for the Fish-People, and although the Emissary would not be injured by this little movement, if it angered the Seagod, then the consequences would be catastrophic for the Fish-People.
Until now he had not made any connection to the attack, not because he was arrogant, but because no one had ever dared to attack on the day of the siren's birthday.
Aside from the fact that this day was the most heavily guarded day for the Fish-People, this act was undoubtedly a declaration of war on the entire Fish-People and even the Seagod Sirens.
No creature would dare to do that, unless he didn't want to survive on the sea.
Lear dares.
He answered Cussen's question with the volley of forty-eight cannons.
The place where the sacrifice was held was a narrow shallow bay, and at this time, under the moonlight, four sail warships lined up in a line at the mouth of the bay, and with a series of fierce roars, countless pitch-black iron balls with burning sparks cut through the darkness at a very fast speed, and then crashed into the crowd.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
There is no need to deliberately aim at all, the shore is full of people, the night sky is instantly illuminated by the fierce firelight, and the low-hanging clouds look like a large cloud of colorful auspicious clouds under the illumination of the moon and firelight.
For a moment, the shore was filled with desperate wails and cries, severed arms and stumps mixed with blood and water that rose and fell with the tide, and white foam dragged corpses into the endless darkness.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack !!"
It was seconds before the fish-man warrior on the lookout recovered from the sudden catastrophe, his sharp voice ripped out and let out a hoarse cry downward, but no one needed his reminder anymore.
"Poof!Bah!Damn, do you want to blow up Lao Tzu too!?"
Rinis got up from a pile of rubble, and just now a cannonball hit the cliff next to the altar, and the splintered stones buried almost his entire thigh, but in an instant he shouted at the gunboat at the mouth of the bay with a smile: "Blow up the good bomb! Blow up those bitch fishmen, come and come and don't be polite, shoot at Lao Tzu!"
Peterley and Adela weren't as optimistic as he was, and they looked at each other heavily from behind Rinice, Lear's bombardment had only given them a chance to survive, and the indiscriminate bombardment of four gunboats was not enough to break into the harbor and rescue them, and the fishmen would soon recover from the chaos, and then the real bloody battle would be.
And before that they had to do something to protect themselves, at least not until Lear and his men rushed here in a bloody fight, only to see a few cold corpses.
"Don't shout, come and help, and Jerry, get out of here, if you don't want to die!"
Peterley roared in a deep voice, because he and Rinis were both warriors, so the fish-people used to bind them were thick iron chains, and he himself had his hands and tendons broken due to his great strength.
But Adela was not an important person, so the witches only performed a silence spell on her and then tied her with twine, and now the chaos broke out, and all the hope of saving herself was pinned on her.
"Reach out!" Peterley said to Adra, who immediately understood what he was trying to do.
There was no hesitation at this time, and as Adela struggled to straighten out his hands behind his back, the latter immediately lowered his head and bit down on the rough hemp rope.
Peterley's mouth was already badly wounded, and the wound that had not healed under the force immediately burst with blood, but he seemed to be unconscious and frantically biting at the hemp rope like a mad lion.
Seeing this, Rinis and Jeremy, who had been silent and pretending to be dead, did the same, and the three big men knelt there and frantically tore at the hemp rope on Adela's arm.
After a brief silence, the four warships at the mouth of the bay finally completed the hull swap, and the cold muzzles of forty-eight guns pointed once again at the chaotic shore.
"Fire. ”
Lear stared blankly at the fleeing crowd in the distance, and once again gave the order for an artillery bombardment.
"Ilor!" As the flames exploded on the shore again, Lear turned back to the name of the trainer.
"Yes, sir!"
"Are the warriors and the sea eagles completely familiar with each other?" Although Lear has personally taught the fighters how to use the explosives bag many times over the past twenty days, and has personally confirmed that each of them has indeed fully mastered it, he still needs to confirm it again when it comes to battle.
There is no trivial matter when it comes to explosives, especially since these people are operating for the first time, and even 95 percent of them are leaving the ground for the first time to take off into the air to fight, so he can't be careless.
"Yes, my lord!" Ilore straightened his chest, he had to endure a lot of hardship to get these unruly beasts to accept the warriors' rides, but the good thing paid off, especially after knowing what they were about to do, a pioneer pride burned through his body like a flame.
"What about you? Are you nervous or timid, or have you forgotten what you want to do? If you bring it up now, I won't punish you, but I want you to be responsible for your own lives and the lives of your comrades, and if you can't do it, don't be reluctant to be a hero, because this is war, not child's play!"
After receiving an affirmative reply from Ilor, Lear shouted a reprimand to the soldiers on deck who were ready to go.
"Nope!"
Two hundred quasi-air force soldiers roared in unison.
"Let's go!"
He gave the final order.
In the night, countless black shadows rose from the deck of the Hades, and swooped towards the sky above the Deep Blue City with murderous energy.
After Ilorore leaves, Lear's eyes are once again on the shore, and if nothing else, the Fish-Man counterattack should soon come.
