Chapter 772: Blade Storm in the Bubbles!
Marshal Nixar's and the others' exclamations were completely covered by the Commotion of the explosion.
The Air Current that blew afterwards made it impossible for them to even stand steadily, as the entire ship was shaking violently.
It was interesting to note.
These Magic Flying Ships actually still had sails, and even deployed wing sails on both sides.
However, before they could react, three more golden beams shot up from below, consecutively destroying one Magic Warship and two Magic Flying Ships.
The only difference between Magic Warships and Magic Flying Ships was that the former had ten breech-loading cannons on each side that could bombard the area below.
But these Steel Cannons, originally used to deal with enemies, were torn apart in the flames of the explosion, forming pieces of even more lethal Metal Shrapnel that riddled the surrounding Magic Flying Ships like sieves.
Some Mages or Soldiers standing in the path were even more unlucky, their Flesh and Blood splattering as they turned into mangled corpses and broken bodies.
"Disperse!"
"Descend!"
"The enemy has extremely strong anti-air capabilities! Fly down immediately and eliminate them!!"
Marshal Nixar gripped the Long Sword he had already drawn, shouting hysterically at his surroundings at the top of his lungs.
This time, he clearly used Magic with a sound amplification effect, each sentence reaching everyone's ears quite clearly, allowing the entire Fleet to gradually adjust from the panic.
One Magic Warship and Airship after another slowly landed.
And during this process, those streaks of golden Flash Art showed no intention of being polite, continuing to destroy eight Magic Flying Ships.
This caused the Airship Fleet, which originally only had twenty ships, to directly lose twelve ships in Mid-air.
Heavy losses, over half Casualties!
The number of people who were lucky enough to survive and reach the Ground was already less than fourteen thousand.
"H-how could something like this happen?!"
Marshal Nixar's Expression was exceptionally ashen upon seeing his Troops reduced to such a miserable state.
Moreover, they hadn't even seen where the Opponent was.
General Slav shouted in shock and anger, "C-could this be Void Magic?"
Marshal Nixar ignored him, continuing to use Magic to amplify his voice, and with a dark expression, roared at the Mages and Soldiers who had hastily run down from the Airships, looking Panic-stricken.
"First, Form Ranks, spread out the Situation, and prepare to meet the enemy!!!"
His calm response produced a significant Effect.
After all, they were all professional Soldiers, and quickly lined up according to the Formation with Infantry in front, Archers in the middle, and Mages in the back.
Originally, there should have been Cavalry Units on the sides, but they, along with their Horses, had already been wiped out on the Airships.
Despite this, nearly fifteen thousand people gathered together, the Scene could be described as a sea of people, with imposing Momentum, and although the Ground Cavalry were gone, the Dragon Knights were still present.
Over five hundred Magic Knights, clad in Armor, holding Magic Staffs, and riding Fire Dragons, spread out in the sky and swooped towards the Direction from which the beams had previously shot.
They had to figure out where the enemy was, how many there were, and what was firing the beams.
Meanwhile, on a Hill about three kilometers away from this Germania ten-thousand-strong Troops.
Levi's dead fish eyes faced the wind, letting the Dark Green Cloak on his shoulders, printed with the Wings of Freedom emblem, flap loudly.
His expressionless appearance seemed completely indifferent to the black dots appearing on the Horizon, and the ten-thousand-strong Military Formation advancing further behind.
Behind him stood a silent five-meter giant man.
This person had a pair of sharp bull horns curving upwards on his head and gray-blue long hair like a lion's mane, wore a white fur Coat with black spots, and his thick, long arms were covered by black Metal Gloves with bronze hoops.
And the most eye-catching:
Was the Radiance blooming on his right chest and the faintly flowing deep blue luster in his eyes.
This was 'Tyrant King' Avalon Pizarro, but it could also be said that he wasn't 'Tyrant King' Avalon Pizarro.
Because it had its own Code Name.
Conqueror CR-2!
"Leave the Ground to you, and the sky to me."
Levi coldly glanced at the big guy behind him, and without waiting for the other party to agree, directly transformed into an Afterimage and flew towards High Altitude.
Look closely.
He didn't have Omni-Directional Mobility Gear at his Waist, but reached this level entirely by his own Ability and Speed.
Of course, his two Half-Blade Swords as weapons were still there; after all, Levi was more skilled in Dual-Wielding Combat Style.
The Internal Program on Conqueror CR-2's side heard Levi's Order.
Those cold Vertical Pupils, flowing with deep blue luster, used the 'Justice Radar Detector' invented by Doctor Stylish to Scan the Great Army several kilometers away.
"Order confirmed, Target confirmed."
[Roar!!]
The next second, its massive body completely shattered the Rock Formation it had just stood on, while it itself forcefully pushed through the semi-transparent Air Layer formed in front of it, charging forward aggressively head-on with Aura.
Conqueror CR-2 didn't utter a single word, but its Commotion was Earth-shattering, and it wasn't long before it was detected by the Dragon Knights who had flown over first.
However, their Opponent, however, wasn't Conqueror CR-2, but an Afterimage that was Sky Walk yet incredibly fast.
The latter's Commotion, compared to the former, could be described as completely silent.
This was very strange.
Because Moonwalk generally gets louder the harder you 'step', and then the Speed gets faster, something even Zephyr and Garp couldn't avoid.
But Levi's Moonwalk, although not particularly special in terms of Speed compared to other Martial Arts Experts, produced almost no Air Blast Sound each time he stepped on the Air.
Look closely at his feet again.
It seemed there were some kind of transparent Bubbles faintly shattering.
"What is that?"
Just as most people's Gaze was focused on the figure on the Ground that was charging wildly, breaking trees it encountered, and splitting stones it encountered.
As the huge figure, like a Brute Beast, approached their own Military Formation directly.
Finally, one Dragon Knight noticed the Situation in the air ahead.
One could see that it seemed to be a large mass of Bubbles.
But he immediately discovered that these dense Bubbles were surging forward like a Wave at extremely high Speed.
"Vigilance!!"
"Is it some kind of Water Magic?!"
Although more and more Dragon Knights also discovered the Bubbles, some even began to Order their Fire Dragons to spit flames.
But before the Hikari from their mouths could fully form.
Everyone was 'engulfed' in the Ocean of Bubbles.
However, the Dragon Knights then discovered that these Bubbles seemed to be just ordinary Bubbles.
Not only did they cause not the slightest harm, but they also broke upon touch.
This seemed like a good thing?
"Ahhh----"
At this moment, a Scream mixed with the sound of Flesh and Blood tearing and the sharp wail of a Fire Dragon rang out.
Everyone was greatly startled.
But when they subconsciously tried to find the attacked and the attacker, they discovered that the surrounding Bubbles were too dense, making it impossible to see anything at all.
However, Screams, however, continued to ring out, and the Scent of Blood began to fill the Ocean of Bubbles.
Finally, someone saw clearly what was happening...
It was a mass of Green Gale rotating at high speed!
No, that's wrong.
It should be a Blade Storm!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 773: Demon - Conqueror CR-2!
"Ah!"
"Ugh ah!!"
"Damn it, where is he? Pfft————"
Under the vast blue sky, within the boundless Bubble Sea shimmering with colorful Bubbles under the Sunlight, cries of Despair, Fear, and Anger continuously echoed.
Looking down again.
Streaks of crimson Blood, like Rainwater, sprinkled towards the Earth through the gaps between the Bubbles.
And armored Human Bodies and Crimson Dragon Bodies that had lost their heads, accompanied by hideous Human Heads and Dragon Heads, fell like Trash.
The Fire Dragon Knights were cornered. No longer caring if they might injure their Comrade-in-Arms, they frantically unleashed the Elemental Magic they were skilled in towards random locations.
For a moment.
Fire Pillars, Brutality Whirlwinds, and Sharpness Ice Spikes raged between the Bubbles.
But no matter what they did, these Bubbles seemed endless. Even if they temporarily blasted open a spot with Magic, it would immediately be filled by more Bubbles.
It wasn't that no one thought of rushing out from below or above.
But they were either killed by the attacking green wind blades or were unlucky enough to be blown away by Comrade-in-Arms' Magic.
Even if a few lucky ones reached the Edge of the Bubble Sea, or even saw the empty Sky outside, they would still inexplicably lose all their strength, watching in Despair as the solid Earth got closer and closer.
Actually, they also knew Magic that could make people or objects float.
And this kind of Magic, regardless of Attribute, is collectively called 'Basic Magic'.
It was just mentioned before that only Mages who reached High Rank, which is at least Triangle-class, could perform Incantationless Casting.
While low-level Mages had to use the Magic Wand in their hands in conjunction with the Spell in their mouths or hearts to cast.
But in this Freefall situation, how could they calmly perform Spell Chanting?
Coupled with the strong Feeling of Powerlessness, it was even difficult for them to wave their Magic Wands!
"..."
Regarding the tragic state of these Dragon Knights, Levi, the Culprit, maintained a blank Expression throughout.
The smooth and silent Moonwalk, combined with the various Sword Techniques of Wind Breathing, made his entire being turn into a Green Whirlwind raging in the Bubble Sea.
However, his Sword Techniques were slightly different from the Basic Wind Breathing Sword Skill.
They had less ferocity and more Sharpness.
This was Levi incorporating his Twin Swords Experience and Style from hunting Giants before through continuous practice.
The focus was on being clean and decisive, a One-Hit Kill.
Therefore, the Blades he unleashed would always swing towards the necks of the Fire Dragons and Magic Knights with every Technique!
Just as Levi was mercilessly Massacring in the Sky.
On the vast Plain.
The massive Military Formation of nearly fifteen thousand people led by Marshal Nixar finally saw the appearance of the 'Human' attacking them.
Because the opponent was pushing a visible Energy Shield and charging straight towards them.
The Roaring Whistling Sound made everyone feel a Chill, subconsciously moving their Adam's Apples and swallowing.
"What is that thing?"
"A Tr-Troll?"
General Slav looked in shock at the massive figure, nearly three Humans tall and two Humans wide. When he noticed the long, thick bull horns on its head, he immediately thought of a certain terrifying Legend.
"No, could it be a De-Demon? Yes, yes, that's right, that must be a Demon!"
There's something very strange about Demons.
It's that whether they exist in that World or not, Living Beings with Wisdom can always imagine them and regard them as the most Evil existence, fearing them.
"Hmm..."
This time, even Marshal Nixar couldn't refute it. The opponent's appearance truly resembled a Demon, but no matter what it was, it was definitely an enemy.
"Fire!"
As the Order was shouted, the Archers standing in Column behind the Shield Wall simultaneously nocked their Arrows, drew their Bows, and then, with a 'buzz' of the Bowstrings snapping back, a sky-covering Arrow Volley formed a brief Black Clouds in the High Altitude.
"Fire!"
This wasn't over yet. As the Order came again, the second row of Archers fired their Arrows again, followed by the third row of Archers.
[Swish! Swish! Swish!]
A total of three rounds of Arrow Rain completely covered the Zone ahead, giving Conqueror CR-2 no Domain to dodge at all.
At the same time.
The Mages in the back row also began quietly chanting Spells. The tips of the long Magic Staffs specifically used for War in their hands had already gathered bright Hikari.
"Enoch Ex Defen K'delio"
This is Line Level Fire Magic, Fireball!
However.
The Speed of the Arrows was much faster than their slow Spell Chanting.
But Conqueror CR-2 completely ignored this dense Arrow Rain.
Allowing them to land on its body, producing a clanging Metal Collision sound and breaking into two pieces amidst the splashing Sparks.
This Result was not surprising.
Conqueror CR-2 was originally a Cyborg built with Shape Memory Alloy, and its Epidermis used Bionic Kabaneri Heart Membrane.
Even the Fur Coat on its body was made from the Fur of a Type-2 Danger Beast called 'Earth Tiger' from the Imperial Arms World, with another layer of Kabaneri Heart Membrane attached to the surface.
Let alone ordinary Arrows used by Ordinary People, even sweeping with Automatic Rifles would find it difficult to break through its layers of Defense.
What about Magic?
With a series of booming Roars, Fireballs as large as two Basketballs gushed out from the tips of the Magic Staffs, forming an extremely spectacular Flame Barrage in the Sky.
This wasn't over yet.
Under Marshal Nixar's Order, Mages skilled in Earth Attribute and Water Attribute advanced, standing between the Archers' Columns.
They created thick Earth Walls in front of the Shieldbearers, and then attached a layer of even harder Ice on top.
Just then, the Fireballs landed.
BOOM!!!
The sky-filling Fire Rain created continuous Explosions and a surging Sea of Fire on the Earth. Even Conqueror CR-2's massive Body Size was instantly engulfed.
This round of Offensive was comparable to the Cannon Fire bombardment from over three hundred Breech-loading Cannons.
The Heatwave that rushed towards them finally brought a Smile to the faces of Marshal Nixar and the others.
Because no Creature could survive such an Attack.
Even if the opponent was a Demon from Myth, they would likely be severely wounded even if they didn't die. At that time, they might even be able to Capture Alive a Demon and bring it back.
[Beep——————]
But just as most of the Flame slowly dissipated, leaving behind only a thick Gunsmoke.
Everyone's Eyes first saw a four-pointed Hoshi-shaped Golden Flash flickering in the dark Smoke, followed by hearing this strange sound.
What is this?
But before their Brains could React to this question, a straight Golden Beam appeared in their retinas, instantly piercing through the layers of solid Ice Walls with incredible Speed.
[BOOM!!]
The next second, a Ball of Fire with Power many times greater than the so-called Fireball suddenly bloomed in the shape of a Flame-covered Bowl within their Military Formation, engulfing all Life within a fifty-meter radius.
"How is this possible..."
Marshal Nixar was completely dumbfounded.
Arrow Rain was useless, Fireballs were ineffective, and the double walls of Earth Attribute and Water Attribute couldn't stop it. How could they fight this?
(End of Chapter)
## Chapter 774: The Abnormal Power of the Fear Energy Bullet!
Panic began to spread among all the Galmanians.
"What should we do, what should we do, what exactly should we do..."
General Slav looked at the 'Demon' getting closer and closer to their side in horror, his body trembling as he slowly retreated backward.
"Calmness!!"
Fleet Admiral Nixar, who was nearing fifty years old, once again used Magic to amplify his voice and roared at his surroundings.
"Any Creature! Anything! They must have a Weakness!"
"That guy is no exception!"
His words did have some Effect, at least temporarily stabilizing the Military Formation's structure and the turbulent Morale.
Because it sounded like it had Principle.
No one believed there could be a truly perfect and invincible Creature in the world, oh, except for the 'Magic Progenitor' Brimir, but that one was a God, not to be confused.
"Listen to my Order!"
Fleet Admiral Nixar observed the Expression of the surrounding Soldiers, breathing a sigh of relief in his Heart, but on the surface, he maintained a serious and composed Posture, shouting loudly again.
"Shield Soldier Unit hold the Shield Wall, Sword Soldier Unit flank from the left and right, Archer Unit free Shooting, Mage Unit cast Magic other than Fireball!"
This was using the Blood and lives of the bottom-level Soldiers to buy Time for the Mages to test and find the Weakness.
Because he firmly believed the opponent definitely had a Weakness.
And this Weakness had to be found using various types of Magic. Since Fireball didn't work, what about the others?
Magic has a History of nearly six thousand years since its birth.
He refused to believe this 'Demon' was truly invincible!
Besides that.
Fleet Admiral Nixar knew deeply that at this Time, everyone must take Action, otherwise just standing there would only lead to increasing Fear and Despair.
Soon.
Nearly five thousand Infantry wearing Light Armor and holding Long Swords split into two parts, surging out from the left and right sides.
The Scene looked like a pair of giant black pincers clamping down on Conqueror CR-2, while the central Zone was occupied by countless Arrows and a dazzling array of Elemental Magic.
But when its Figure walked out from the Thick Smoke, it left Fleet Admiral Nixar and the others stunned again.
Because at this moment, Conqueror CR-2 was covered from head to toe by a layer of black Armor that looked like it was Manufacturing from Metal, and even its Cheek had a black Mask.
The terrifying barbs and edges all over its Body gave it an overall Style full of Darkness.
"Demon... it's really a Demon... I, we are actually... fighting a Demon from Myth?!"
General Slav covered his face with both hands, muttering in disbelief, while Fleet Admiral Nixar said in a grim Expression, "Could it be that the Tristain Kingdom has truly mastered Summoning Magic for Demons?"
Summoning Magic, everyone was Familiarize with this. Who hasn't summoned a Familiar from the Otherworld?
But a Demon was truly the first Time they had seen one.
"Look! It, what is it doing!"
In fact, there was no need for General Slav to remind them, everyone saw the giant black Demon suddenly drop to all four Limbs, lying on the ground covered in Scorched Earth and broken Arrows.
Completely ignoring the Arrowheads and various Magic Attacks landing on its Body.
Everything could at most cause Cracks and damage to the black Armor, which would then Self-Recovery at an extremely fast Speed.
At this moment.
They saw it open its terrifying large mouth and gather a ball of purple-blue Energy Sphere in front of it.
At the same Time.
Strands of light blue Gas that looked like ribbons? Or was it an Energy Matter, flowed from the ten-thousand-man Military Formation on Fleet Admiral Nixar's side into that purple-blue Energy Sphere.
This caused its Volume to expand at a Speed visible to the naked Eyes.
[Roar!!!]
As if Heaven and Earth were Tremor, dazzling Radiance bloomed. When the Energy Sphere expanded to a width of over one meter, it instantly transformed into a violent Energy Tide, erupting like a collapsing mountain and overturning seas.
Whether it was the Soldiers hiding behind Large Shields directly in front, or the Archers and Mages they were Protection.
The last thing they could do was subconsciously widen their Eyes to the maximum, and then quickly close their Eyes under the excessively bright Radiance...
[Boom Rumble Rumble——————]
In front of the surging purple-blue Energy, whether it was Arrows, other Elemental Magic, or the layers of Ice Wall from before, all turned to dust and vanished.
Finally, the nearly ten-thousand-man Military Formation was submerged in the light and shadow!
This Scene stunned the five thousand-plus Soldiers who had run to the sides. Their original charging Footwork had stopped at some point without them realizing it.
Even if some were still running forward, they were knocked to the ground by the sweeping Shockwave.
"This guy is actually this Strong?"
In the High Altitude, Levi, who had already annihilated the Fire Dragon Knights, stood on a large Bubble nearly three meters wide, his Gaze heavy as he looked at the Energy Explosion below.
Asking himself honestly.
If he were hit by this Technique from Conqueror CR-2, even if he used Armament Haki and Bubble Protection, there was an eighty percent chance something major would happen.
Actually, this was an Accident.
If Conqueror CR-2 had Self-awareness, it should have been surprised by the Power of this 'Fear Energy Bullet'.
Because its performance just now had far exceeded the normal level.
Generally speaking, the Explosion Power of the 'Fear Energy Bullet' was not much greater than a Light Beam, but it had an Effect of causing intense Fear in surrounding Creatures after the Explosion.
For example, if the Explosion range was thirty meters, but the Aftermath could sweep over a hundred meters, then the Creatures within this hundred meters would experience uncontrollable Fear.
Conqueror CR-2's initial intention was just to use the Fear Energy Bullet to blast apart the massive Military Formation in front of it.
Now it seems like they've been mostly blown to death?
Indeed.
When the Radiance disappeared, a massive crater appeared in the center of the original ten-thousand-man Military Formation.
However, unlike the Explosion Effect of a Light Beam, there was no High Temperature Effect.
So although the pit was large, there was no Scorched Earth, only Flesh and Blood, severed Limbs, Internal Organs, and various twisted Steel Fragments all over the ground.
Including Fleet Admiral Nixar, General Slav, and other Higher-ups Officers were among them.
It was just impossible to tell who was who...
However, Levi's Gaze fell upon the Soldiers who were screaming wildly and running around frantically, and the Mages who were slightly Stronger, but were just paralyzed on the ground with faces full of horror, as if they had seen something terrifying.
Because the Distance was too far, he couldn't hear what they were shouting.
But the Scene of these thousands of people going mad together was truly horrifying, and even Levi couldn't help but be moved by it.
[Beep——————]
[Beep——————]
[Beep——————]
However, Conqueror CR-2 had absolutely no Humanity. After standing Up, it actually condensed golden Flash from its palms and mouth.
It clearly intended to kill them all.
Because the Order it received from Levi was to eliminate them!
Seeing this Scene, Levi was speechless.
Massacring a group of people with no Combat Ability made him feel a bit uncomfortable. After all, no matter how indifferent he was, he was still a Human.
So what should he do now?
Go down and stop Conqueror CR-2?
(End of this chapter)
**Chapter 775: Two Magic Mirrors!**
Let's talk about two different things separately.
As mentioned earlier, the Germania Kingdom, in order to avoid repeating the fate of the Regen Zista Religion, divided its Great Army of 60,000 into two parts.
The remaining 10,000, along with most of the Magic Warships and Airships, launched a surprise attack on the Albion Kingdom Mainland Sky Island.
To be honest.
In Mima Amatori's view, this was extremely foolish.
Since it had already been confirmed that the Tristain Kingdom had less than 20,000 Military Strength, why not directly divide the 60,000 Great Army into six routes and attack simultaneously?
Initially.
Mima Amatori had anticipated that the Germania Kingdom would attack from six directions.
So he had prepared to act together with Mr. Xiu. This way, not counting Chelsea who needed to stay by Louise's side, adding the two Conquerors would make exactly six 'people'.
As for whether they could each take on 10,000, that would depend on their respective Means and Strength.
But who knew the other side would only divide into two routes?
That made things much easier.
He could just have Levi and Mekko each take a Conqueror to intercept. Although 30,000 Great Army sounded like a lot and looked like a considerable number, he believed there wouldn't be any Accidents.
And indeed, that was the Fact.
However, Mekko's Combat Style was completely different from Levi's.
She did not charge forward with Conqueror CR-3, but patiently waited for the more than twenty Magic Fleet ships carrying the 30,000 Great Army to enter their Range.
Then, she directly transformed into the 'Nue' Form of a Kabaneri.
A large amount of Black Substance formed a complete set of ferocious Black Armor and a Mask on her Body Surface, and her eyes also shot out a faint blue radiance.
Since mastering Life Return, Mekko had been able to Control the High-Temperature Blood within her Body.
This allowed her to restrain the cold blue light in her eyes in daily life, making her look more like an ordinary Blonde Beauty.
Next.
Mekko's Fear Energy Bullet and Conqueror CR-3's Golden Flash Beam allowed the 30,000 Galmanians to experience what 'beyond visual range' indiscriminate bombardment felt like.
The purplish-blue Mental Energy filled with Fear and the golden-yellow, intensely hot Flash Ball of Fire exploded, causing the vast Great Plains to seemingly tremble.
Powerful, violent Air Currents formed circle after circle of white Mist.
Between Heaven and Earth, only the earth-shattering Loud Noise remained: 'Roar, Roar, Roar'.
Under Mekko's Observation Haki and Conqueror CR-3's 'Justice Detection Radar', even with smoke and dust billowing and light and shadows dazzling, they could not find any chance of survival.
Tragic!
Too tragic!
It was like an army from the ancient European Era encountering a modern Bomber formation.
The so-called Magic, or rather, the Four Elemental Magic in This World apart from Void Magic, had absolutely no power to resist such carpet bombing.
At the same time.
Just as the great battle/Massacre was erupting on these two sides.
Mima Amatori, who remained in the Capital Tristainia, sat on a chair in the Palace Hall serving as the Command Room, controlling the Situation on the various Battlefields.
Although he currently lacked any official Identity, the Dignitaries around him surprisingly raised no objections, and instead appeared very obedient to his various Orders.
This was, of course, thanks to Valter behind Mima Amatori.
The Magic Power of the Andvari's Ring had firmly Controlled all the Higher-ups and Nobility, including Queen Henrietta.
"Hey hey, Captain Lord, are you planning to have me deal with over 10,000 troops on nearly fifty Magic Flying Ships all by myself?"
Looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, he put on an exaggerated look.
Mima Amatori crossed his legs and leaned back in his chair, chuckling softly: "What, haven't you always wanted a flamboyant Combat? Then naturally you need a sufficiently large stage~"
"Ah, that's true, but the Difficulty for me alone to take care of so many people is too great, and they're flying in the sky..."
Tengen Uzui, who was on the other side, complained while looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand.
Although there were some Troops remaining stationed in the Albion Kingdom Homeland, what use were those less than 10,000 ragtag Troops?
The reason they were called ragtag.
It was because King Wales, following Mima Amatori's instructions, had taken all the Troops who had learned how to use Breech-loading Rifles to the Battlefield against the Gallia Kingdom Great Army.
"I think this side is the one that needs a Conqueror. As for that side, don't you still have Captain?"
Hearing this, Mima Amatori showed a helpless Smile.
"There's nothing I can do about that. Who would have thought the enemy's Commander would be stupid enough to divide 60,000 Military Strength into two routes? So, I'll leave that side to you. Just don't let the Capital City be occupied again."
"Alright, I'll do my best~"
Seeing this, Tengen Uzui could only sigh and disconnected the Communication, beginning to think about the upcoming Operation Plan.
And Mima Amatori, after putting away the Den Den Mushi, didn't worry too much.
After all, even if the Germania Magic Fleet on the other side wasn't stopped, they could still be dealt with after the Battle Situation here ended.
He had basically understood the Situation of this 'Zero Magic' World.
Apart from the so-called 'Void Magic', other Magic basically posed no threat.
And regarding Louise's Void Magic, after a simple inquiry, he had learned that it required a long time of Spell Chanting preparation, and the function of her 'Familiar', Hiraga Saito, was to buy her Time.
In other words, if a Situation arose where Louise needed to be taken down.
Then simply controlling Hiraga Saito would easily prevent her from using Magic.
Judging from Hiraga Saito's Combat performance, Mima Amatori didn't think there was any Difficulty.
Even if he once again displayed the Speed and Swordsmanship from when he defeated Valter with one sword, it was actually just so-so.
Mima Amatori always felt that Hiraga Saito's Void Ability called 'Gandalf' shouldn't be just wielding swords and blades.
Being able to quickly master and use all weapons he touches, no matter how you look at it, his Potential is extraordinary, and can even compare to some Paramecia System Devil Fruit Abilities.
"Void..."
Mima Amatori looked down thoughtfully at the two Silver Rings on his Palm, each inlaid with a light purple and a light blue oval Gem.
These were King Wales's 'Wind Transparent Ruby' and Queen Henrietta's 'Water Fresh Green Ruby'.
One could amplify the Power of Wind Magic, and the other could amplify the Power of Water Magic.
Both were the so-called 'Progenitor's Secret Treasure'.
According to the saying 'Void is Four', there should also exist 'Ruby Ring' of the Earth Element and Fire Element.
In addition.
On the armrest of the chair to his Right Hand side, there was a strange, thick Book. Mima Amatori had naturally flipped through it, but inside were only White Paper.
Only after asking Princess Henrietta did he learn.
This so-called 'Progenitor's Prayer Book' would only show its effect in the hands of a Void User wearing a certain 'Ring'.
In other words, the 'Four Rings' are actually the exclusive Secret Keys for Void Users when using the other 'Four Treasures'.
Namely.
The Ruby Ring of the Wind, Fire, Water, and Earth Systems and the Progenitor's Four Great Void Secret Treasure.
Among the Secret Treasures, besides this prayer book, there is also a Round Mirror, a Music Box, and an Incense Burner.
Adding the four Void Users and their respective Void Familiars would complete the 'Four of the Four' from the Myths and Legends.
Mima Amatori just wanted to try it out.
In addition.
He had also found two Magic Mirrors with very miraculous functions in the Royal Palace and the Magic Academy.
One was a 'Teleportation Mirror' that could connect two locations and allow people to travel freely through the mirror surface, and the other was a 'Mirror of Truth' that could peer into one's Heart and transform one into the appearance of their ideal self just by looking into it.
In Mima Amatori's view, the Value of these two Mirrors to the World Government was also extremely high.
Suddenly.
A series of hurried Footsteps rapidly approached.
This caused him to look up at General Poitiers, who had a face full of Nervousness and was still clutching a piece of Letter in his hand.
"Lord Amatori, a Request for Reinforcements Letter has arrived from King Wales's side! They say they suffered a Plight on the Battlefield: a Large Metal Puppet that is immune to and reflects Magic, and can easily block Arrow Rain and Bullets!"
"Oh?"
Mima Amatori raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself: "Has something new popped up in This World again...?"
Indeed.
Only War can force out more Means and things!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 776: The Coming of the World's End!
The Halkeginia Continent was completely thrown into chaos by Mima Amatori.
This Zero Magic World had not experienced a World War of such Scale for thousands of years.
This could be seen from how, after nearly six thousand years of development, their Magic and Technology were still so backward, and even their Population had not grown significantly.
After all, War is the catalyst for the progress of Civilization.
According to Mr. Shu's Research, there were three main reasons for this.
The first point was the consistency of faith.
As mentioned before, apart from the Elf Race, all Kingdoms on the entire Continent believed in the Progenitor Brimir.
This faith had long been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people, consolidated and maintained by the Romalia Papal State.
They even held the Authority and Qualification to grant Royal Authority.
The second point was the fixed Class system of Magic.
It seemed that only those with a certain Blood Relation to the Progenitor Brimir, meaning the Nobility, could wield the Strength of Magic, leaving the Civilians without the Ability to resist the Nobility.
Perhaps some people had tried in the past.
That was why Firearms like the Flintlock and Breech-loading Cannon existed today.
But it was clear that they had not continued to develop, instead remaining at a level that was slightly useful but still very backward relative to Magic.
Why?
Because among the Nobility throughout history, there were also people of Wisdom!
The final point was that among the five Kingdoms currently on the Continent, the Ancestors of three of the Royalty were the Sons of the Progenitor Brimir, while the first Pope of Romalia was the Disciple of the Progenitor Brimir.
In other words, only the Germania Kingdom was established later.
Of course.
There were actually many Duchies and Marquisates on the Continent, but their land area was too small and their National Strength too weak to be worth mentioning.
In this Situation.
The so-called international Situation had, for a long Time, become entirely the family affair of 'Brimir's family'. Even if Conflicts occasionally arose, they wouldn't escalate into major Wars.
Even if someone lost their head during this period, the Popes throughout history were responsible for mediation or punishment.
Therefore, for the Civilians, this was an incredibly oppressive and Despair-inducing World, because the Nobility had not provided them with any upward mobility.
The highest Status Civilians could achieve was something like a Captain in the Army.
Becoming a Knight or General was out of the question.
However, there was a special exception to every rule: Captain Agnes, who led the Musketeer Squad and served as Queen Henrietta's Royal Guard.
This Women, with short blond hair and a heroic demeanor, had trained the inaccurate Musket to a level of hitting the Target every time.
Coupled with her exquisite Swordsmanship, her Strength was enough to easily defeat any Magic Knight below Triangle Rank.
But how many Geniuses of this Rank were there?

The geographical location of this Religious Nation happened to be equivalent to the Italian Peninsula, so this World could be considered a Parallel World.
It was just that there was an extra small red Moon in the Sky and the Supernatural System of Magic here.
"His Majesty, why do we allow those Kingdoms to Slaughter each other?"
Julio looked at Pope Vittorio de Saint-Rémy de Saint-Aegis XXIII, who was seated on the Throne, with confusion. He was also his Master.
Yes.
This handsome Blond Youth, dressed in white with a blue Cape, whose eyes were one red and one blue, was actually a Void Familiar summoned from Other World, just like Hiraga Saito.
And His Holiness the Pope, whose hair was also golden but long and straight, was naturally a Void User!
"Ah—Julio, I have told you before, our World is on the verge of Doomsday, and the only Method to save everyone is to reclaim the Holy Land occupied by the Elf Race, then open the World Gate there to invade Another World, and occupy a piece of land in that World where we can survive."
Pope Victorio said slowly with a solemn expression, while Julio stood below the Main Hall, silently listening.
"But the Elf Race's Strength is very powerful. Their Magic and their Battleships are far superior to those of our Human Nations. To achieve the first Target, or even the second Target, we must unite the Strength of all Kingdoms."
"Original Copy, I wanted to find an opportunity to convene an Alliance Meeting, but the Albion Kingdom's Action made me think of another possibility!"
Pope Victorio's Gaze was burning as he exchanged gazes with Julio across the distance.
"That is to let a certain Kingdom unify all the Human Nations on the entire Continent. This way, all Strength can be concentrated, and compared to a loose Alliance, it should have more cohesion."
Julio suddenly understood after hearing this, finally grasping the other party's idea.
"But His Majesty, doing so will not only result in countless Casualties, but a Kingdom that unifies all Nations will definitely threaten Romalia's Status."
When the Strength of Royal Authority is far greater than Divine Authority, will Royal Authority still be willing to remain beneath Divine Authority?
However,
Pope Victorio calmly retorted, "When the World is about to be gone, what does that matter?"
"This..."
Julio was speechless, and then heard the other party lower his Voice and say:
"As for those who are Sacrificed during the unification process, they can only be said to be necessary. Otherwise, everyone will Facing death. We can only Choice to save the majority of people."
Julio could not refute, because he knew that the Windstone Catastrophe indeed existed.
In certain places on the Continent now, terrifying phenomena have appeared where the Ground cracks and then automatically floats towards the Sky.
It is believed that this will become increasingly severe, and eventually, the entire Continental Plate will shatter into pieces, turning into Sky Islands or Fragments like the Albion Kingdom.
At that time, the original Natural Ecosystem will completely collapse, and the number of people who die will definitely be much more than in the current War!
A moment later.
Julio asked again with Doubt, "Since that is the case, then why don't we help a certain Kingdom?"
"Because we are a Religious Nation, a neutral nation, and also because I cannot see which Kingdom can unify the Continent, so it is better to let things take their course..."
Pope Victorio answered him faintly. After speaking, he gave Julio an order.
"However, I need you to make a trip to Tristain Kingdom to ensure the Safety of the Void User named Louise. Both the opening of the World Gate and the subsequent Conquest of Another World require her Void Magic!"
"I understand."
Julio nodded, then swung the blue Cape on his body and strode away from this magnificent Grand Cathedral, where buildings were made of Gold and emeralds everywhere.
"Esteemed Progenitor Brimir, please have Compassion on your Descendants, so that we can successfully Procreate and thrive in Another World..."
Pope Victorio closed his eyes, sincerely praying in his Heart the words he didn't know how many times he had recited.
As one of the only two people in the World who knew about the Doomsday information, the Pressure on him was unimaginable to others.
Because he is the Pope, he must save everyone.
Even if it requires the Sacrifice of ten thousand people for this, even invading other worlds for this, he will stop at nothing!
