Extraordinary Pedigree.

Chapter 939 Merciless Prayer of Justice and Angel Bomb!
As the Fifth Hero raised his warhammer, the silver legionary crown behind him slowly unfurled amidst the flames of war.

[The Legion's Crown Unveiled - The Soul of the Knight of Saint Martin]

The moment the crown fully bloomed, the soul defenses of all the [Knights of St. Martin] members around were suddenly ignited.

Their eyes were bright, their steps firm, as if the burning halo pierced through their armor and flesh from the depths of their consciousness, linking them together into a wall of grace.

The prayer warhammers were raised in unison, streaks of silver light tracing across the battlefield. With each strike, Hai Si's body crumbled like paper, and even his dream waves could not take shape.

While clearing out the Sea Siren, they also set up the framework and anchor pillars of the planetary engine. The prayer platform appeared beneath their feet, with runes burning into rings, one ring after another, finally locking onto the coordinates.

The fifth hero stepped to the front line, facing the raging tide of the sea.

"Heretics, now is the time to purge them!"

Saint Mardin murmured to himself, his gaze as cold as stars falling into the sea, as he slowly raised his silver holy hammer.

next second...

"Buzz!!!"

The void vibrates.

Behind him, a blazing white beam of light descended from the sky, as if the heavens were being torn apart, as if divinity were descending from the firmament.

That is—[Calier ( )].

This is the Legion-exclusive avatar of the [Spirit of Saint Martin].

A pure silver winged angel, whose form condensed between illusion and reality.

He was tall and immaculate, his six wings spread out like a sky-covering curtain; each feather was inscribed with prayers and sealed words, as if each wing was a sacred chapter.

In its hand it held an extremely heavy, silver-white warhammer, the handle of which was engraved with symbols of mercy and judgment.

【A Crowned Blessing: A Prayer of Righteousness Without Compassion】

The giant hammer swung down, as if a god had reached out and ended a new chapter in history.

boom! ! !
The hammer fell to the ground, the earth cracked, the center of the basin collapsed several meters, and the entire space was compressed at that moment.

"Click-click-click-click-click—!"

That wasn't the sound of ice cracking, but rather the sudden increase in air pressure, as if the world had contracted abruptly.

In this chaotic land, [Kaliye] amplifies the surrounding pressure by hundreds of times.

next second.

The entire swarm of sea creatures in the area, whether floating jellyfish or surging dreamlike fluids like seaweed, were instantly deformed and exploded under the intense compressive force field, leaving no intact remains.

They were like dream dust, crushed into grains of salt by an invisible hand, drifting in the air, with only the lingering echoes of psionic energy still wailing:
"For the Mother Goddess...for the dream of the sea..."

Seeing that the charging Hai Si was not quite dead, the Fifth Hero raised his warhammer again, and the [Kalier] behind him was also raised high.

Then, another [Prayer of Unmerciful Justice] landed, but this time it wasn't a full-area attack; instead, it created a column of high-pressure air in the upper atmosphere.

Boom! ! !
Subsequently, the immense pressure directly smashed Hai Si, who was leading the charge, into mincemeat with a single blow.

……

……

Inside the vehicle [Jormungandr], in the main command cabin.

The train continued its roaring journey, yet its interior resembled a tranquil cathedral within the heart of a deity.

Xia Xiu stood before the central projection platform, gazing at the violently collapsing ripples of the earth on the projection screen, watching [Kalier] raise his warhammer, and the next second the entire battlefield seemed to be crushed by the palm of a god. He couldn't help but murmur in a deep voice:
"...Truly worthy of being called the Fifth Hero."

That single hammer blow not only destroyed the almost surging tide of Dreamflow Sealings ahead, but also tactically sealed off the front line of the battlefield, allowing the Knights to complete the deployment of several planetary engines within minutes. Aerial monitoring data kept updating, and the [Blue Tide Purification Progress] jumped up.

Xia Xiu lowered his eyes, his gaze moving across the projection screen.

He recalled the intelligence he received from the Fifth Heroes after the assets were authorized from Eden, prior to the opening ceremony:
"When the Fifth Hero, Saint Martin, is named and becomes the incarnation of [Kaliye], the Fifth Hero will possess the 'Legion Avatar Synchronization' trait. When he appears on the battlefield, the skill [Unmerciful Prayer of Justice] will automatically activate a pressure strike zone based on the number of Legion Knights, their total Spirit Will value, and their formation."

"Range extends to where the Holy Hammer points; power increases with the weight of the Legion's faith; form unfolds with the Holy Decree."

Xia Xiu remembered Eden's comments at the time:
"If you want to cleanse a land of evil, let the Silverwing Angels construct the Hammer of Truth with their will."

At this moment, reality is proving that assessment correct.

Under the massive AOE damage skill [Unmerciful Prayer of Justice], the entire battlefield was completely wiped out. With the three 3.5-generation machines firing at full power, the Corrupted Hearts Swarm, without the protection of the Swarm Lord, was basically like lambs to the slaughter.

Xia Xiu nodded and looked away.

"The abdominal cleanup is no longer a major problem."

His tone was calm, as if he were merely stating a formula. The next second, he swiped his finger across the light screen, and a vast topographical map rose up, like a mountain descending from the sky, hovering directly above the tactical compartment.

That is—the deep end of the Star God's spine.

A colossal mountain range, stretching straight out like the spine of heaven and earth, traverses the surface of the Star God's body, embedding itself in its structural core, like a deity lying in the void, its bones, spine, and body all enveloped by weathering, rock layers, and strange objects. And hidden within this rugged spine is an even more terrifying swarm of sea creatures.

——【The lifeblood of origin】.

This is a parasitic marine organism that uses carbon-based life forms as its "mother model." Its core structure is a crystallized kernel, which can generate neural networks within the host and reshape will.

They possess a semi-centralized thought process, with focused will, clear strategies, and can even collectively construct a source-material shell brain to complete regional tactical coordination.

If the main core is destroyed, the other individuals will go berserk, unleashing mental screams as a devastating final shriek.

"Twenty-one planetary engines need to be deployed here."

Xia Xiu said in a low voice, his fingertips lighting up the coordinates on the topographic map point by point—as if he were marking spikes on the giant's skeleton.

“We must set up the defenses precisely... otherwise these life-threatening monsters will retaliate from the cracks in the earth’s crust, bypass the Blue Tide Purification Zone, and pierce through all our defenses from behind.”

After saying that, he glanced around the tactical room.

None of the heroes standing at the heart of Jormungandr retreated.

Xia Xiu, now in his golden, muscular form, grinned and said to Zhu Yingjie:
"Who wants to volunteer for this area?"

The next moment, a strong man with bronze skin and burning eyes stepped forward.

The Seventh Hero, Saint Sebasti, stepped forward.

“Let our Order of Saint Sebasti come. Although the Lifeline Group is mainly parasitic and insidious, our specialty is purification.”

Xia Xiu nodded slightly, agreeing to the Seventh Hero's request to fight.

Speaking of which, he held the combat techniques of the Knights of Saint Sebastián in the highest esteem from the very beginning, or rather, he was amazed by them!

Unlike other knightly orders with their standard legionary cooperation system, the Saint Sebasti's order was practically a walking angel bomb.

Like Xia Xiu in the early days, they all chose to equip the [Light Body Module] in the second stage of the Sorcerer's module.

But unlike his approach of using light to achieve a gigantic form, Saint Sebasti chose a more extreme and terrifying direction.

Their tactical logic can be summed up in one word:

"explode!"

They would coat their full-body armor with a liquid prayer fuel mixture of high-temperature fuel and light-generating agents. Then—it would burn.

Ignite your soul from within, ignite your structure, ignite your belief.

In the most frenzied moments of battle, these knights, hailed as "destroyers born from divine fire," would choose the most direct way to charge into the enemy ranks—to embrace their foe.

Then, at the closest distance, all the burning energy is compressed and exploded, unleashing a violent self-destructive burst.

This move can be described as a heavenly version of "living as one with heaven and earth," where one's body and the enemy perish together.

True purification means leaving not even one's own ashes behind.

And the scariest thing is—they don't actually die.

After that instantaneous explosion, their [light transformation] was activated, disintegrating themselves into countless light particles, and reconstructing their physical bodies with the help of crowns and faith circuits.

But this process is extremely dangerous; failure means real death.

Every self-destruction is like dancing on a knife's edge, gambling between life and destruction.

The Angel Bomb Saint Sebasti is a heavenly soldier that even the Blood God admires.

None of those who become knights of Saint Sebasti are cowards.

For Saint Sebasti, purification means self-destructing along with the enemy; it's either you die or I die!
"Then, we will continue to execute the tactical plan."

Xia Xiu stood in the main control center of Jormungandr, his gaze as deep as the cold glint of metal, his voice as steady as thunder.

"First, Jormungandr opened the way, as the harbinger of calamity, with unending fire and iron, slaughtering a third of the enemy forces—tearing open the first bloody path for the Kingdom of Heaven."

He slowly turned his head to look at the bronze-colored, blazing hero beside him, his tone pausing slightly, yet still firm and powerful:
"When the time is right, you and the Knights of Saint Sebasti will descend to earth and completely purify the battlefield."

The Seventh Hero, Saint Sebasti, with piercing eyes, nodded emphatically and replied:
"clear."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire interior of [Jormungandr] instantly activated.

The roar of the train echoed deep within, its propulsion core raging and releasing waves of heat. Countless tracks formed by the [Miracle Rainbow Bridge] automatically generated on the surface of the Star God, resembling tongues of holy light that spread and wandered across its deathly and eerie shell.

This steel behemoth, like a steel dragon, sped across the light bridge, circling the massive outline of the planetary god. In just a few minutes, it arrived at the colossal terrain symbolizing the god's skeleton—the deep end of the spine.

This place is the nest of the Primordial Lifeline Group.

A dark gray tide rolled through the air, filled with radioactive dust and the smell of decaying metal. Layers of the earth's surface, like muscles, floated and twisted, as if some enormous neural network was throbbing and writhing deep underground.

The Spine Mountain Range resembles a broken divine spine, and amidst its undulations, hundreds of millions of parasitic sea creatures quietly stir.

They resemble bizarre jellyfish with embedded crystal nuclei or wriggling umbrella-shaped fungi, and are translucent throughout. Their core is a vital nucleus composed of nerve-like crystallization.

These sea creatures float in the air, seemingly drawn together by invisible nerve threads, forming bizarre arrays of brains.

As Jormungandr's steel body approached, their reaction was not violent—instead, they were unusually calm.

High in the sky, those life-bound sea creatures suspended countless bizarre... carbon-based structures in mid-air, linked together by nerve bulges in their flesh, and began to release high-frequency mental signals.

"—Defense Mode: Construct a shell-brain barrier."

"—Energy projection prediction: Source burst."

"—Current enemy level: Strike against the civilized side."

"—Initiating counterattack mode..."

However, their tactical coordination is not yet complete.

The first wave of bombardment from Jormungandr has begun.

What are you babbling about? Take this cluster strike first!

Thousands of heavy cannons, inscribed with prayers, roared in unison at that moment, like a divine hymn of calamity sung, piercing the sky.

Flames, hailstones, corrosive particles, beams of faith... accompanied by sonic booms descended from the sky!

The entire ridge area seemed to have instantly entered a fiery inferno.

"boom--!!"

The entire shell-like brain tower constructed by the Haisi collapsed directly under the beam impact, and the Haisi swarm was torn into pieces before it could merge.

[Jormungandr] did not stop, nor did it slow down in the slightest.

It crushed all the strangely shaped sea creatures equally, leaving behind a torrent of light and flames, a death symphony where even the air burned.

Even so, Xia Xiu's gaze remained solemn.

Because he knows.

The master of the vital energy cluster did not appear in the abdominal region.

Now, the spinal region is also missing.

This means that the true core of the four major groups is gathering, waiting, and brewing.

These sea creatures are waiting to bring a big wave of good news to the Kingdom of Heaven.

However, before the Lord of the Sea Si's grand scheme could begin, Xia Xiu, along with the heroes and the entire Heavenly Kingdom Expeditionary Force, obtained...

Beat them to death!
"We cannot let Hai Si survive."

Xia Xiu grinned coldly, his golden eyes like the sun falling to earth, his gaze fixed on the Seventh Hero, Saint Sebasti.

At this moment, a crimson halo of flames rose behind the Seventh Hero, like a harbinger of an impending volcanic eruption.

The halo is no longer warm, but burning.

That is the crown of prayers, the sacrifice of faith, and the prelude to destruction.

"I'm leaving this place in your care from now on," Xia Xiu said in a deep voice.

Saint Sebasti's eyes burned with fury. He slammed his right fist into his chest armor, and with a resounding clang, as if in divine response, he nodded slightly and uttered the Knights' battle cry in a deep voice:
"Blazing flames are our sacred name, sacrifice is our battle stance!"

The projection array of the [Jormungandr] main control center suddenly activated, and the entire train carriage rose up as if divinely inspired, transforming into streaks of pure fire that pierced through the sky above the Star God's spine, tearing through layers of air.

—Angel bomb, descend!

Countless red and white knight armors emerged from the flames.

That is—[the Knights of Saint Sebasti].

They were clad in [prayer armor], which was engraved with flaming incantations and purification prohibitions. The armor plates were like scales and blades, and every crack shimmered with the heat of a furnace.

Their bodies were coated with purifying spray, and the combustion factors were ignited the moment they landed, turning the entire knight order into a high-temperature storm during the projection process.
Countless burning figures pierced the earth's surface like meteors.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"

The crustal layers of the spine zone were blasted open layer by layer, and the STC modules of the planetary engines landed along with them.

The projection cabin slowly unfolded, and the silver-white star anchor frame bloomed like a flower. Each connecting arm quickly extended and embedded itself into the ground—beginning to locate the core geological features.

At the same time, San Sebasti himself, like a burning meteor, charged straight into the core area of ​​the large group of Sealings.

Behind him, countless knights in flames were engaging in close combat with the lifeline parasite in the most extreme manner.
