Chapter 336 It's Just a Tsunami
Chapter 336 It's Just a Tsunami
On the central tower of Messana Star Fortress, Priest Luo withdrew his gaze from the busy Northern Patrol soldiers below and turned to look at the vast ocean in the west.
The sun has sunk below the sea level, leaving only some afterglow. The colors of the sea and sky are becoming darker. Between the rolling gray clouds and under the surging waves, it seems that unspeakable dangers are brewing.
“He who comes has ill intentions…” The quality of Pastor Luo’s soul is like honey that has been diluted with water and then diluted with water again. It is not sweet enough, and his divine intuition is not that sharp.
But it is there, vague and indistinct, and if one's mind is not focused enough, it can be easily overlooked.
"Caw... cackle!" The iron-feathered crow has returned.
This large crow with blue-black feathers that emit metallic reflections in the sun was not specially summoned by Priest Luo, but was discovered during a perception scan.
At that time, Priest Luo had already settled in Fort Meisana with the Northern Patrol Group. Just like he is now, he stood on a high place and looked into the distance. Because he had set up a magic circle just like when he migrated the people, the scope of his exploration was greatly increased.
Against this backdrop, a group of iron-feathered crows were discovered dozens of kilometers north of Star Fortress.
Large gatherings of crows often mean there is plenty of food, just as vultures circling in groups.
Sure enough, he and the representatives of the Northern Patrol Group saw a large number of dead bodies there, more than a hundred, and barely confirmed that they were soldiers from the Mesana Star Fort.
To be honest, this surprised Pastor Luo somewhat.
After all, the Mesana Star Fort was a typical deserted place, as if all the people stationed there, regardless of whether they were regular soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, vendors or their families, had lost their minds in an instant, and then they carried the things in vehicles and on their shoulders, completely emptied the star fort, and left collectively, highlighting a situation of good control and order.
But if that were the case, then killing these people would be superfluous.
They are all under perfect control, so why do we need to execute a batch of them here?
Pastor Luo also carefully investigated and analyzed it and confirmed that it was not some kind of dark blood sacrifice.
It was a typical killing of prisoners. The prisoners were like animals and were still unaware of the situation until the moment before they were killed, because there was no apparent struggle at the scene.
Pastor Luo has no answer to what exactly happened behind this.
But he made use of both the corpses and the crows.
The former turned into an undead laborer, and the latter became a secondary scout capable of long-distance reconnaissance and even shared vision.
Priest Luo has a high threshold for certification of various professions. For example, the modified crow, although it can act as a scout, its ability is not fully up to standard, it just has a long long board.
So consider them as secondary scouts.
In fact, from Iron-Feathered Crow to Magic-Feathered Crow, these eyes in the sky are quite powerful. They can become invisible and even teleport short distances at night. Unless the target of their reconnaissance has very good extraordinary means of confrontation, the reconnaissance effect is comparable to the modern new reconnaissance satellites on Earth. It is like looking down from more than ten meters in the air and can transmit back extremely clear audio and video intelligence.
Undead coolies are of lower quality, and their highly incomplete corpses cannot meet the transformation prerequisites of the Soul Wizard's core skills, so they can only be transformed by the means of the Necromancer.
Therefore, he thought it was stupid and slow, with only brute force. Anyway, Pastor Luo did not expect this level of puppet to fill the gap, which simply insulted the definition of "combat soldier".
The Demonic Feather Crows returned one after another, indicating that nothing abnormal was found within a radius of 200 kilometers.
This distance is already quite good. After all, the distance from Mesana Star Fortress to another adjacent star fortress is less than 200 kilometers.
However, the Demon Feather Crow's reconnaissance results did not make Pastor Luo feel relieved.
On the contrary, he became more convinced that the enemy would most likely come from the sea this time.
After throwing most of the magic crow seals into the void warehouse, leaving a part to be combined with the magic circle for patrol duty, Priest Luo came down from the high tower.
As soon as they entered the main hall of the complex where the tower was located, Ioannis and Hector came together.
"Why? Didn't you go to eat?"
"No appetite." Ioanni agreed, and then asked, "How was the long-range reconnaissance?"
"No abnormalities were found in the Barony of Lanbia. There were no abnormalities in the north and northeast either. We have carefully observed several small woodlands and found no hidden soldiers."
Ioanni and Hector both breathed a sigh of relief.
Rather than being troubled by evil spirits, they were more worried about the barbarians getting involved in the incident.
To use a more cruel metaphor, the evil spirits are like a horror movie. Isn't Sadako hellish enough? It is almost unsolvable, but in the end of the movie, it doesn't kill many people.
But if it’s a war movie… haha.
If the barbarians get involved, or something even darker happens, and they capture the Barony of Lanbia southeast of the Messana Star Castle, then things will get serious, and it will definitely be heading towards the Winter War.
If it was just the Messana Star Fortress, it would be a blessing in disguise. Both Ioanni and Hector felt that they could still hold on.
After all, they have Priest Luo in their team, and the two do not think that there is any force that can defeat Priest Luo through tricks and schemes.
Pastor Luo did not expect that these two people were so confident in his fighting ability.
The reason why he was worried was mainly about what kind of power was behind the virtual kingdom of God and how big its business was.
In his opinion, as long as the operator of the virtual kingdom of God is not stupid and mobilizes forces to fight him head-on, it is unlikely that either he or Robo of the cult will have the last laugh.
It's just a matter of spending money. Winning a hundred games is nothing, but losing one game will cause serious damage. This is the biggest shortcoming of him and even the cult Robo.
Of course, Priest Luo did not know that Legion Robo had taken over a resource planet that was two times larger than the Earth and had already supported the cause of Legion Robo.
He also didn't know that the virtual kingdom of God was indeed very large, and the resources, manpower, supernatural powers, etc. involved were astronomical.
However, the problem of redundancy was so serious that the landlords did not have much surplus food.
What's more, the management is entering its twilight years and is in worse shape than Yakang.
For example, if something is accomplished, the boss gets the biggest share, but when something goes wrong, the subordinates are considered the main responsible persons.
In this context, bullying those below them, hiding the truth from their superiors, and covering up the truth to gain connections have become common problems for most members.
Just like this time, the problem was not handled through formal channels, but someone responsible took the initiative to make so-called compensation, trying to get everything back on track.
Then, near midnight, an abnormality occurred. The sea water west of Methana experienced a visible ebb tide, revealing a beach tens of meters long.
Priest Luo, who had been focusing on guarding against the sea, had already activated the magic circle and made it operate at full capacity.
Soon, the entire star fortress was wrapped in a layer of light film, just like a layer of plastic wrap on a plate. Of course, the spire was wrapped separately and organically integrated with the light film below.
The highlight is not these, but the spire where Priest Luo is located, which is rapidly turning into a bright body of light, and then projects a thick stream of light, writing runes in a burning manner on the dam-like reef to the west of the star fortress.
The scene looked like a giant using his oversized disease to write cursive script using energy as ink.
After finishing the first row, I began to write the second row on the low-tide beach further in front of the reef.
By the third row, they were already on the seabed with water.
The two or three-meter-deep sea water cannot hinder this magical and grand writing. Even the sea water does not evaporate during the whole process. Instead, it is like sunlight projection, giving people the impression of non-interference.
At this time, the consequence of the low tide has already appeared - a tsunami.
The man-made tsunami came from the sea in the field of vision, like a huge wall. Even from a distance, it was already spectacular.
This situation soon became indescribably grand, accompanied by a rumbling sound, and the feeling of the mighty power of nature destroying everything was immediately felt.
The cavalry of the Northern Patrol had been ordered to stay in the barracks early in the morning and were not allowed to go out without orders. Several knights followed Hector and watched the battle from the top of the city wall. At this time, they were collectively speechless.
In the face of such a vast force, individuals seem too small and not worth mentioning.
The instinct of life made them fully experience the despair of landslides and tsunamis. The waves were hundreds of meters high and gradually covered the sky and filled the field of vision. The humid sea breeze was the forerunner, and the sound it made when flowing at high speed was like a howl, forming a loud sound like rolling thunder, which was deafening.
Then came the super water wall formed by billions of tons of seawater, which came sweeping forward with overwhelming force, seemingly slow but actually fast.
Faced with such power, Hector and others felt that just being able to stand had already exhausted all their strength, and moving became a luxury.
Then they saw the first, second and third magic defense lines set up by Priest Luo light up one after another. Soon, before they could confirm the effectiveness of their defenses, the turbid waves were already upon them.
At that moment, at least half of the people present closed their eyes instinctively.
Then, there was no more.
After another one or two seconds, they opened their eyes and found that the huge waves had nothing to do with them. All they saw was the lead-gray dim dome, just like being in a church, looking at the gloomy sky outside the glass window in the not-so-bright light.
The entire star fortress, including its foundation, gives people a very stable feeling. It is the kind of castle that can stand firm in the face of strong winds and heavy rains. No matter how noisy the outside world is, it will not affect the safety inside the fortress.
"..." Some people were amazed at the high-end and awesome protective measures of Priest Luo, while others felt that their previous performance was shameful.
No matter what the ideas are, one thing is the same, that is, no one is in the mood to communicate at the moment, and everything is silent.
For Pastor Luo, dealing with a single disaster like this, which gave him enough time to prepare in advance, was not a difficult task.
When dealing with water, if you can’t beat it, just join in, so the role of the first two layers of protection is flow waves.
It’s not enough to just join in, you also have to deal with gravity.
After all, the water wall is hundreds of meters high, and the waves crashing down are no lighter than those from Feilai Peak. The reason why it can destroy everything in its path is mainly because of this.
But it is also impossible to defeat the joining. The third level is the distortion of the laws of the earth system and the magnetic anti-gravity field.
Although it is said to be three layers, they are actually integrated and interconnected. To put it simply, it is a mixed field force field.
If you must add some comments, you can add the middle word of "element".
The law of elements is not what Priest Luo is good at, so he needs to prepare, cast spells at fixed points, and rely on a powerful energy supply system and computing power system.
If it is a field that Pastor Luo is good at, then even if he encounters an emergency while walking, he can activate this mixed force field.
Leaving aside the technology, what remains to be discussed is the 'nozzle', which is the output force per unit time.
There is an exemption line, and it's not as high as you might think.
Because although the scale of this tsunami has increased, its accuracy and concentration of power are actually very average, causing widespread casualties, and most of the power is used passively to create momentum rather than actual strikes. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is big but ineffective.
The title-level strong men are not afraid of this kind of massive attack that only has scale but no cohesion. They just have families to drag along and a group of mortals to protect. They have sufficient preparation time and the form of attack is very simple, so it is not difficult to deal with it.
The tsunami rushed onto the land for nearly a hundred miles, and then there was a huge receding tide like a mudslide.
The Mesana Star Fortress is like a huge ship sailing in the turbid sea under the moon. The ship does not move itself, but the water moves to make it look like it is moving.
The tower released light again, but this time it was an umbrella-shaped rotating laser. The land around the Mesana Star Fortress was petrified and hardened in this light, while the land in the farther area was frozen.
As a result, the scraping effect of the mudslide could not shake the foundation structure of the star fortress at all.
At the same time, on the western sea, several warships were sailing at an extraordinary speed, braving the turbid waves of the receding tide.
They are the initiators of the tsunami.
In other words, the group of spellcasters who caused the tsunami are on these warships.
Ioanni noticed the warships' glowing blue-purple sails and whispered, "Aurora Society!"
That’s right, it was the Aurora Society, an operations executive of the Virtual Kingdom of God who tried to cover up the truth. He had limited power, and the forces he could quickly mobilize in this world were only those few.
It has only been ten days since the evil spirit incident at Montes Star Fortress, and a small fleet has arrived, loaded with high-level spellcasters. This level of mobility is not just acceptable, it's terrifying.
After all, for this kind of thing you have to look at the overall environment and the background.
What kind of world is this? What era is this? To be able to have such efficiency is already an exaggeration.
Unfortunately, although this fleet has a comprehensive combat capability comparable to that of the Dreadnought Fleet under the blessing of the extraordinary, Pastor Luo is not just a local warlord who is able to exploit the people, or the corrupt late Qing Empire.
Everyone on the fleet wanted to get closer to observe, and if necessary, use the battleship's cannons with extraordinary materials to give the drowning dog a good beating.
However, they did not expect that Pastor Luo's counterattack had been prepared in advance and suddenly launched at this moment.
What was prepared in advance was an extraordinary package like a self-propelled mine.
After all, it was only Priest Luo himself who could "see" a distance of 200 kilometers with the help of the magic circle, not to mention the magic feather crows on duty and patrolling.
This led to the fact that when the Aurora Society mages were causing trouble, Pastor Luo actually already knew about it.
Pastor Luo couldn't understand why these guys only cared about eating and not about being beaten.
The destruction of the Yulong Air Cavalry Group, was it in vain? I was not touched at all.
Although he was very quick and decisive at the time, with his extraordinary ability, it shouldn't be difficult to make a rough real-time determination, right?
Even if it is not possible, we can still figure out the approximate location of the Air Cavalry Regiment when it suddenly loses contact or something like "the soul lamp goes out" happens, right?
With this speculation, can't the attack range of his magic be estimated?
Why is she doing something in a place where he can see? Is this stupid? Or is it a deliberate seduction?
After thinking it over, Pastor Luo did not rush to take action, but made preparations.
Sure enough, after the tsunami, these people came closer to check the situation.
The extraordinary package swam in the mud and water. It had roughly calculated its route in advance. It completed the final correction without much effort and set a trap in the waters ahead of the small fleet.
Now, as the bone spear staff was put into place and suddenly exploded, a huge mud vortex was formed by the simultaneous push of more than a hundred pushing points, just like suddenly there were more than a hundred propeller blades, and then it rotated counterclockwise with the position of the bone spear staff as the central axis.
The spellcasters on the battleship cried out in surprise and took action one after another. Some tried to control the turbid current and reverse the whirlpool, while others blew wind into the magic sails, or used makeshift rocket thrusters to try to get the battleship out of the whirlpool.
However, in terms of the total output efficiency of supernatural power per unit time, although Priest Luo was alone, with the help of magic circles and prior arrangements, he surpassed the panicked spellcasters.
Moreover, there are differences in technical levels and control capabilities.
It can be said that Priest Luo formed a temporary magic circle in the trap area, and extended his will with the bone spear staff, as if he was casting the spell himself in the magic circle, and every bit of his strength was used on the blade.
This resulted in the spellcasters on several warships being busy for a long time, but still having to watch helplessly as the warships were thrown out of control by the turbid current whirlpool and entered the countdown to being swallowed up.
Unable to bear it any longer, the first spellcaster appeared who chose to leave the battleship in order to save his life.
Soon there was the Nth one.
Unfortunately, Pastor Luo was not going to let them go.
The bone spear staff suspended in the air began to release pale green death rays.
In the face of this powerful instant-death magic, all spellcasters are equal. Anyone who is targeted will die in the next second.
This was also within Pastor Luo's calculations.
According to his prior analysis, anyone who is able to withstand the death ray is likely to be able to fight against the turbidity whirlpool and free the battleship.
Therefore, the turbidity vortex trap is actually a filter. It cannot assist the ship in fighting against the caster of this range of spells. Facing the point damage of the death ray, the possibility of survival is bound to be very low.
It turns out that among these spellcasters who flew away, none of them had a powerful magical weapon that could protect them from disasters...
