It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 702 Bai Yao Shatters the Destiny Star
After Anai Ning quickly dealt with the other destiny star, she came over with a smile and said that not a single stone had been thrown to the ground.

Lo Wei didn't have such a pointless pursuit; he just looked at Mena, who was standing there dumbfounded.

Mena: "??"

Where are the stars?
“Don’t you remember what just happened?” Anai Ning smiled, sheathing her knife, mimicking her tone, “You kept repeating ‘It’s not a prophecy, it’s salvation…it’s not a prophecy, it’s salvation…’”

"Me?" Mena nodded calmly. "I see. It seems that's true."

"Do you sense anything?" Luo Wei asked, looking at her. It was rare to see someone as calm as her in this situation.

“It must be that the powers of the stars want to convey something through me, to relay some proclamations left behind through my position. There’s nothing strange about that,” Mena said calmly, then looked at Anai Ning. “But it’s good that you brought me here, otherwise you might have had to deal with two destiny stars all by yourself.”

"Huh?" Anai Ning asked curiously, "So, it's possible for it to possess my body?! Really?!"

Please don't get excited in a place like this...

Luo Wei sighed helplessly, then asked, "Can you bring that voice back?"

“I’ll give it a try,” Mena nodded.

No, you really want to try it?

However, after trying for a moment, she shook her head: "No, I can't sense anything anymore."

Luo Wei nodded. There was nothing more to say, otherwise he wouldn't know how to view her in the future.

“Announcement is just one means; the star path reveals the meaning of moving forward,” Mena said, opening her eyes. “The message you receive may be very important, which is why it is transmitted in such fragments and in such a way. The answer may be hidden in the repeated words that you are asked to remember.”

"...Were you often possessed by others before?"

“No,” Mena shook her head, “the first time.”

Luo Wei was too lazy to complain about her lack of a sense of crisis, but she wasn't the kind of astrologer who recklessly spied on fate; if she said everything was fine, then everything was really fine.

"so……"

Luo Wei hesitated for a moment and looked up at the sky.

Mena clearly understood what he meant, but she didn't make her statement too absolute.

"There are different ways to reunite, and we should not be bound by the choices life makes. Unpredictable encounters can happen on the road of fate, just like you and me."

"Looking at it this way, fate really is a wonderful thing..." Luo Wei smiled helplessly.

"of course."

The three looked up at the sky again. Only these two had fallen in the southern part of Lion Garden. Besides the dozens they had seen, there were probably others in other parts of the continent.

"The names of the deceased have faded in history, but fallen stars offer their sacrifices—"

"It was all predetermined, not a prophecy, but a salvation."

The war festival at the Temple of War Gods, the divine war of twenty years ago also began with the same name.

Regardless of what those words actually referred to, the immediate problem is that because of this festival, trouble is likely brewing all over the continent.

……

One of the seven independent cities on the mainland, Wuguan City.

A huge red star fell on the plains north of the city, its roar sending up a billowing cloud of fire and a plume of smoke that stretched across the sky.

As the smoke and dust gradually subsided, the red star settled there, its appearance changing light and dark over time as if it were breathing. Until one moment, the entire star seemed to come alive, gradually stretching out and transforming its rocky exterior into a huge, strange life form, emitting a breath that distorted the air.

And at this moment——

"Temple of the Storm Gods—Attack!!"

Holding a feathered spear and clad in temple armor, the pale blue-haired angel gave the order, and the angels in the sky behind him rushed toward the star beast.

"High Priestess Moira, shouldn't we wait for the temple warriors to arrive together?"

“By the time they come down from the Broken Ridge Plateau, the flowers will have withered,” Moira said, looking down at him without showing any emotion. “And just call me Chief War Officer. Prepare for the assault!”

"Yes!!"

Moira adjusted her stance in mid-air and gripped her gun tightly.

Because of her status, she can't stand with the Legion like she used to fight alongside the Goddess of the Machines, but that doesn't mean she can't do anything.

"All troops, deploy into encirclement and annihilation formation!!"

Now that you've all gone to war, I'll leave this place to you!
……

The Kingdom of Lion Gardens, capital city, Melendall.

The noble knights who rushed to the scene saw a huge red meteorite shatter into pieces in the sky as soon as they arrived in the church district.

Then came even more complex sword light; as the sword light poured down, not even a small pebble landed on the roof.

The nobles, whose hands were still gripping the swords at their waists, were completely dumbfounded.

The man standing on the rooftop, tall and with a resolute face, glanced down at them and said, "Go and check on the situation of the surrounding residents."

The men below immediately bowed and saluted: "Yes, Your Excellency Ulysses!"

……

The Hooffire Empire, capital city, Radiant City.

Sitting in his office, Difas, dressed in a white military uniform, turned to look out the window at the scene outside, the fiery red light reflecting off his bored face.

"Randall, you are truly wicked, not even giving me time for a nap."

He turned his gaze back to the imperial handbook in his hand, which contained a record of the arrival of the Destiny Star in various places eight hundred years ago.

He then casually flipped through the pages, showing no interest whatsoever. Instead, he covered his face with the covers, tilted his head back, and fell asleep in the chair.

"Fine, Kidd, just focus on doing your best."

The third prince of the Hooffire Empire, standing opposite his desk, gave him a cold look.

"Diphas, are you ignoring my existence?"

“Anyway, you came here for that princess, didn’t you?” Difas lay there without moving. “Let’s wait until I wake up before we talk about it. After all, I spent the whole night catching mice.”

Third Prince: "...!"

……

Far away on the continent, in the Dark Sun Kingdom, Levi = Klussel, the old capital "Monument = Melos".

As the red comet fell far to the western plains, a group of people standing in the western square looked up in that direction, while the knight legion behind them was cleaning up the battlefield.

“Odesdemona, we…”

"Send the second squad to check it out," the girl in the God Creation Knight armor said in a cold voice. "Be careful of demon ambushes, and remember to bring the smoke generator for communication."

“Understood,” the man nodded. “After all this time, we’re finally back…”

"Um……"

Dos Demona lowered her head with a hint of guilt and looked back at the square where she had once been suspended.

"Are you thinking about that time?" the man asked.

The girl nodded, and then said:
"We're just one step away now. Even if it's just to have a chance to repay this kindness, we can't afford to lose here."

……

Northern Lion Garden, the border. A red star of destiny falls into the distant earth. The army of the Temple of War God advances in a mighty manner along the road in front of the mountains to the highlands. At the head of the army, a girl riding a white horse and wearing pure white blazing sun armor is expressionless.

Boom, boom, boom——

As the sound of advancing troops rose behind her, the girl with hair the color of dawn tightened her grip on the reins and glanced at the fortress at the edge of Lion Garden in the distance.

There.

Fully armed knights from the North stood guard on the city walls, ready for action.

"Your Holiness, shall we report this to the authorities?" a divine general rode up on horseback and asked. "Last time we entered the country, they let us through directly."

Elita: "..."

She raised her hand to stop them, then rode her horse a few steps before turning it around to join the army below.

"Inform the army—attack directly."

……

In the southern part of Lion Garden, in the valley of weeping, are military tents.

After learning about the situation in Uncrowned City and Melendall, everyone immediately gained a clear understanding of what was happening on the continent.

"So, that means that various parts of the continent are currently being impacted by meteorites... and what's that, the Fallen Star Beast? Like that Crimson Star in Melendall?"

“If it doesn’t reach that level, then it’s a ‘cursed star’,” Mena explained. “These are just ordinary life stars, or perhaps not so ordinary.”

"Anyway..." Lovely hesitated for a moment, "Well, it was one of those kinds of things that fell down, right?"

And they fall everywhere.

From where they couldn't see from the southern border of Lion's Nest, more stars were falling in other directions from Uncrowned City and Melendall, like a shower of meteorites falling across the continent.

In this way, their expanded territories could be attacked. Even if they can do something as outrageous as cutting down stars in the valley, it doesn't mean they can do it everywhere.

"Uncrowned City has Moira and the others, and Melendal has Viscount Ulysses..."

Putting aside the fact that Moira is the fourth angel and leads the angel legion and the army of the Temple of Storms, Viscount Ulysses is definitely not in any trouble. There is basically no need for them to interfere in Melendal and Uncrowned City.

But that might not be the case in other places.

If the whole world were in this state of disaster, it would be unimaginable that the Temple of War would resort to such a tactic at a time like this.
“This kind of undeserved disaster,” Liya Lan said with her eyes closed, “if it happened directly in the capital of some small country, it could very well lead to the destruction of that country.”

"How did they do that?" asked the prince of the Red Eagle Duchy.

“It’s not entirely clear yet,” Lialan replied, glancing at Mena and the others, “but when you sent back your message earlier, you mentioned the term ‘Conquest Festival,’ right?”

"..."

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

The war of gods twenty years ago was indeed started by the Temple of War Gods, after which the chief god of the Starry Church fell.

But back then... none of these things happened now, did they?

"This means we are closer to the truth."

Luo Wei said coldly.

The last round didn't see such a large-scale descent of the celestial bodies. It can only be said that their situation is too good this time, and the Temple of War Gods judges that the usual methods can no longer stop them.

He didn't mind his opponent using such tactics; after all, only by seeing more can one understand more. So, what was his opponent's decision at this moment...?

"Could it be..." Nasuxia pondered, "that the Holy Maiden is planning to take advantage of this chaos to advance on us?"

"Then...!" The councilor paused, "According to the battle lines, the location most likely to be attacked at this moment, isn't it...!?"

They all glanced at Lovely.

Given that the Temple of War's military buildup began in the United States of Valais, does that mean the northern border of Gryphon is now the most likely target for attack?!

Lovely sat there and slowly lowered her head.

"I had anticipated this."

"??"

“You don’t mean,” Nasuxia glanced at her, “that you’ve deployed a large force to defend the border ahead of time? Can the Knights of the Lion Garden hold off that saintess alone?”

“No—” Lovely closed her eyes, then spoke with a calm gaze, “I don’t intend to rely on the knights of the Lion’s Den to stop her, but I am prepared to give her a gift.”

"...What gift?"

“It’s just a temporary delay,” Lovely shook her head and stood up. “Let’s begin. We have a lot to do now.”

……

The northern border of Lion Garden marks the national border.

The army of the Temple of War surged down the hillside and easily occupied the entire fortress, facing the Lion's Garden Knights who offered virtually no resistance and were routed shortly after engaging in battle.

Elita ordered her adjutant to inspect the supplies inside the fortress and discovered that the Fifth Princess had stockpiled a considerable amount of food and provisions there, seemingly planning to station troops there.

However, once the fortress became the Temple of War, all of this became meaningless.

"Confiscate all these supplies."

"Yes!"

Elita glanced at it indifferently. This fortress played a crucial role on the border, but what puzzled her was why the Fifth Princess had reacted so late.

Why did only the food supplies arrive first this time, when they were able to actively send soldiers to the front lines before?
The other general beside her shared the same view.

"Perhaps... the expansion of our power has been too great, and we can't manage it in some areas?"

"..."

Elita didn't really believe this speculation.

The grain was piled up here as if it were a gift to them, for them to harvest... and so on.

She had just frowned and was not yet thinking of anything when a dazzling light suddenly shone from the mountains to the south.

"What is that?" asked the general beside her, puzzled.

Before he could finish speaking, Elita's eyes flickered, and she immediately ordered the entire army to withdraw from the fortress.

However, it was too late.

On the southern edge of the mountain range, the "Fara-Gai," a cannon built by the goddess of mechanical engineering who surrendered before the enemy could fire a single shot in the valley last time, is now being filled to its maximum capacity.

"After firing the cannon, immediately start dismantling it, then crush the teleportation stone to go back, understand?!"

"Okay! Hurry! I can't wait!!"

The artisans of Wuguan City were eager to try their hand at this project. It was humanity's first step in imitating the goddess's weaponry, but a giant leap for the artisans.

Vanessa and the other dragons who had transformed into human form were waiting nearby. After firing the cannon, they would transform into dragons and help the craftsmen push the parts into the portal.

next moment--

More than ten kilometers away, the muzzle of the rotating cannon emitted a dazzling light.

Boom! ! ! ! ! !
The sky and the earth were instantly illuminated in a dazzling white light.
