Chapter 66 It's turning

The position prepared by Viola's army on the beach was actually just a defense line made of miscellaneous items such as wooden barrels and boxes, and no trenches were dug.

On the one hand, the time was too short and the conditions did not allow it. On the other hand, the war in their world had not yet developed to such an advanced tactic as digging trenches.

This kind of bunker fortification located on the ground is mainly used to protect some arrows, prevent the enemy's landing troops from rushing directly to the shore, and slow down their marching speed to give archers more output opportunities.

But if you encounter artillery washing the ground, it will be all in vain, and you will be blown up with both the people and the fortifications.

Viola realized this, so she ordered to abandon the position and retreat.

The order was quickly passed down and executed. On the edge of the cliff not far away with higher terrain and better vision, Orde still looked at the sea with a calm look.

Even if the flash just swept by, she didn't react much. Even if the nearest explosion point was less than 50 meters away from her, she just shook off the dust and branches on her hair and continued to look at the sea like a husband-waiting rock.

Since it was difficult to transmit messages at night, Viola's army used light signals to issue orders.

Sheila came here to send a return signal to the reconnaissance ship on the sea. She was frightened when the explosion came, and she squatted down with her head in her hands.

When the explosion died down, Sheila saw the light signal below the hillside and said hurriedly:

"Miss Aoerdai, His Highness asked us to retreat."

"I won't leave yet, don't worry about me."

"But..."

"I will follow you when necessary."

Sheila didn't know how valuable the so-called "high-level wizard" was, but she always listened to Zora's bragging. Sheila thought that maybe Aoerdai should have no problem walking by herself.

So she rushed down the hillside to meet up with the main force.

Aoerdai, who was left behind, not only did not retreat, but took two steps forward and stood on the edge of the cliff.

Her silver-blue pupils looked at the bright electric light on the sea in the distance again, and she seemed to be thinking about something.

"Such a huge amount of magic power... The magic cluster cannon has finally been successfully gathered?"

She knew this weapon, and even knew the person who made it.

The prototype of this magic cannon has many defects, and no matter how much it is improved, defects such as high cost, high energy consumption, and high heat dissipation requirements cannot be made up.

Aurda predicted that it could only fire three rounds at most, and even the second round was a stretch.

But who knows how many such cannons are installed on that fleet?

Viola was right to ask the soldiers to retreat. This kind of firepower is not something the army can resist. Once it hits, it will cause a large number of casualties.

But this does not mean that there is no solution.

Aurda stared at the sea, her fingers changing gestures one after another, and muttering obscure spells. A gentle breeze lifted her up and slightly floated on the ground.

She was preparing to cast a powerful strategic magic, which might not destroy an entire fleet, but could also cause heavy damage.

"Hmm? What is that?"

But just as the spell was being prepared, a beam of red light suddenly shot down from above the dark clouds.

"It's not magic, nor is it a power I know, but a beam of light of that scale...what on earth is used as energy?"

The light penetrated the sky and earth and projected onto the sea on one side of the fleet. The huge beam of light was so large that it couldn't even be seen, as if it was supporting a person's upper and lower eyelids.

Viola, who was directing the soldiers to retreat, of course saw the red beam of light, and there seemed to be a voice in her heart telling her.

The Demon King God, took action.

–--——---——

The red beam of light also caused panic among the sailors on the fleet, and many people ran on the deck, as if asking if anyone knew what was going on.

The huge red beam of light moved slowly on the sea, and the word "slowly" was actually not accurate. It was too large, and it seemed to be moving slowly from a distance, but in fact it moved quickly to the center of the fleet at a speed that the human eye could barely keep up with.

Then, the red beam spread out without warning, like a large stain on the glass. The scattered light spots illuminated the fleet shrouded in darkness at once. The whole sea area seemed to be burning under the red light. At first glance, it looked like a hell in a horror fantasy.

Without waiting for the fleet to react, the spreading light began to shrink.

The scattered light spots rotated at a constant speed in the clockwise direction. Every second, the blurred light spots seemed to become clearer. Until two or three seconds later, the light spots turned into a huge circle.

Because it was too big, everyone on each ship could only see part of the edge, but Oldey on the shore could see it clearly.

The round thing looked like some kind of huge and complex magic circle.

At this time, the fleet finally responded. Many ships gave light signals, and the entire fleet turned left at full speed, trying to escape the area covered by the light.

But when coming, it accelerated with the wind. When turning, it was not enough to just turn the rudder. The sailors had to adjust the direction of the sail.

However, the deck was already crowded with soldiers preparing to land in small boats. The sailors had difficulty walking through the crowd, which resulted in the fleet failing to turn in time.

In an instant, the huge red light suddenly disappeared, as if it had never appeared. The soldiers on the deck thought they were hallucinating.

However, anyone who knows some common sense about magic knows that the sudden disappearance of the magic circle is not the end, but it has been activated.

The next second after the light disappeared, lightning and thunder continued in the sky above, and the roaring thunder seemed to tear the entire sky apart.

Orde, who was using the enhanced vision spell to observe the sea surface, clearly saw that some huge shadow fell from the sky full of lightning.

It was something whose details could not be seen clearly. Occasionally, a slender part compared to the sky could be seen, like some kind of metal object as huge as a mountain, but with a large hollow and relatively few solid parts.

It fell from the sky and inserted into the sea.

Then...

Then it started to turn!

The sea water was boiling and turned upside down, forming a terrible vortex that was clearly visible to the naked eye.

The ships involved were almost instantly crushed by the unclear things, and they didn't even have time to jump into the sea to escape.

More and more ships were involved, and the ship that had just tried to fire the magic cannon was also sucked over, and the beam that had completed the energy storage was fired again.

But this time, it was useless.

It was a loud explosion that could be heard even at the seaside, but it floated away gently like smoke hitting a solid object.

A word immediately popped up in Orde's mind.

The Demon King God.

That power was definitely not a product of the mortal world. No one could resist it. Even the most advanced magic technology was as fragile as a child's arm in front of it.

The raging wind hit the coastal mudflats a little later, and some soldiers who were retreating were simply thrown to the ground, with terrible whistling wind sounds in their ears.

Viola noticed that the sea water on the beach was receding, like the tide, but the speed was too fast.

"Quick! Get behind the hillside!"

Many soldiers also noticed this, and they quickly got up, as if they were being chased and bitten by a vicious dog, and ran to the back of the hillside without caring about their heads.

The huge vortex on the sea surface continued, and it lasted for nearly twenty seconds before the thing that fell from the sky rose into the sky again.

When people thought it was over, a huge arm that seemed to be able to support the world fell from the clouds. The hand seemed to be wearing a special bright yellow glove that looked like leather, but no one could imagine how big an animal could contribute such a terrifying amount of fur.

The palm slammed into the sea water with a bang, just like a playful child stirring the water in a wooden basin with his hands, the arm groped left and right, and even the "small" action of shaking the hand could be seen.

This also defeated the rotating vortex, and the sea water rose in an instant. In people's eyes, the splashing waves were almost about to touch the dark clouds.

Then, the terrible tsunami rushed in and submerged the shore positions in an instant. Even if they hid behind the high hillside, a large amount of sea water still surged over, soaking Viola and her soldiers thoroughly.

However, the harm of the tsunami ended there, and did not go any further.

Viola immediately led people to climb up the hillside again, and the huge arm stirring in the sea water finally withdrew the dark clouds with satisfaction.

"What a terrible power this is...!"

Wendy, who followed Viola closely, said it was terrible, but her face was flushed, and she seemed very excited.

She now understood why Reina became a believer after seeing the Demon King God take action himself. That power had a fatal attraction like magic, and anyone who saw it would want to worship it.

The soldiers who followed also noticed this scene. They followed Viola and knelt on one knee, praying to the sky.

On the hillside, Alde looked at her arms withdrawn to the sky, and gently patted the dust on her clothes. Although she still looked expressionless, her eyes were full of the desire to row a boat...
