Why is my anime art style so weird?

However, when he looked at the image in the sphere of light, his cheeks twitched slightly, and his expression showed hesitation and struggle.

He hesitated for a moment before raising the trident in his hand.

Soon, a huge wave crashed in, capsizing dozens of Greek coalition boats and drowning hundreds of Greeks.

That's it.

Poseidon immediately put down his trident with a pained expression and made no further move.

A hint of mockery flashed deep in Athena's eyes.

She knew her second uncle's personality very well. To use an ancient saying from a mysterious Eastern country, he was: "He would forget righteousness for small gains, but would be careful with his life when it came to great things."

He only saw that the war before him required a great deal of divine power, but he failed to see the immense faith that could be gained after the war was won.

After this victory, her prestige among the Greek states will reach even greater heights, and she will gain even more faith.

On the other hand, Poseidon, having lost the populous and prosperous city of Troy, would lose a major source of faith.

As one side gains and the other loses, her power will surpass Poseidon's in the near future.

At that time, she'll have to spit out everything she's swallowed!

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that the Greek coalition wins the war.

If the Greek coalition loses the war, she will be devastated by the enormous losses.

Indeed, for Athena, this war was a gamble.

If the gods knew what she was thinking, they would probably all, like Poseidon, call her a 'madwoman'.

In fact, there is only a thin veil separating genius and madness.

Poseidon's 'help' did not significantly improve the battle, and neither side even realized that it was the great Sea God who had done it, simply assuming that the waves were too high.

The battle continues, and it's getting increasingly brutal.

The Greek coalition, strengthened by the goddess, broke through the first line of defense with almost unstoppable momentum and quickly advanced towards the second line of defense.

Gorgon continuously unleashed petrifying rays, but their power was greatly diminished in the face of the goddess's enhancement.

Normally, just being exposed to petrifying rays, even just a hair on the leg brushing against them, would turn a person into a stone statue in just a few seconds.

However, after being enhanced by the goddess, even if she was directly hit by the petrification ray, her movements would only become extremely slow.

Erina and Puck's magic was also greatly weakened. Previously, a single spell would cause large numbers of Greek soldiers to fall like wheat being harvested, but now they were wounded but not killed, and it often took two or three spells to kill a few dozen people.

Don't underestimate this small difference.

The Greek coalition forces became more resilient, and the previously held front lines began to retreat under their relentless onslaught.

However, Fujino's twisted eye seems to be able to directly penetrate the protection of the goddess's power.

Dozens of colorful orbs flashed across the bodies of the allied soldiers, and in the next instant, head-sized holes suddenly appeared on their bodies, blood mixed with fragments of internal organs spraying out in all directions with a "plop!" sound, looking like a blooming blood flower from afar.

Fujino's Twisted Eyes were incredibly powerful, but unfortunately, they couldn't inflict widespread damage like magic. Therefore, Xu Ming ordered her to specifically target enemy soldiers whose helmets were adorned with brightly colored feathers and whose armor looked different.

These were all deputies and centurions in the Greek coalition, important junior officers.

As a result, one by one, the Allied officers were targeted and killed by Fujino.

With a large number of junior officers killed in action, the already loose command structure of the Allied forces became even more chaotic.

Xu Ming's shikigami fought with all their might, which allowed the Trojan army of less than five thousand to withstand the attack of the allied forces of twenty to thirty thousand.

However, after planting the battle flag and casting defensive spells, Xu Ming activated his spiritual vision and carefully observed the allied warships at sea, seemingly searching for something.

Suddenly, a cold black light flashed in Xu Ming's eyes. As soon as Xu Ming turned his head to look in the direction from which the light was found, he saw a black line shoot out from the warship a thousand meters away, and appear in front of Erina in an instant, as if by teleportation!

Ding!

With a soft sound, the light barrier in front of Erina shattered instantly.

Amidst the flying golden fragments, the black line continued its forward surge, crashing into the ice wall released by Erina.

兹！

Ice shards flew everywhere, and only then did everyone realize that it was actually an arrow emitting a dark green glow.

The arrow seemed to have a life of its own, relentlessly piercing into the ice wall, as if it wouldn't stop until it pierced its target.

"What are you doing...!"

Xu Ming pulled Erina behind him. Erina was about to get angry, but when she saw Xu Ming's actions, her fair face blushed slightly, and she swallowed the rest of her words. She lowered her head and obediently hid behind him, her eyes darting around.

Chapter 751 Setting a Trap

Xu Ming didn't think much of it.

Although he had warned his shikigami beforehand that there was a very dangerous sniper in the enemy camp, and told everyone to be on guard.

However, the others didn't have as many life-saving items as him. Given the circumstances, it would be more appropriate for him to block the poisoned arrow himself.

Although this poisoned arrow is extremely powerful, its threat lies entirely in the hydra venom it is coated with; it is merely an ordinary magical arrow.

As a result, even the bone jade armor next to Xu Ming failed to break through and fell to the ground.

呲!

The black poisoned arrow had barely hit the ground when it began to corrode the surrounding sand and gravel.

A soldier nearby was about to pick it up when he was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hand.

People nearby also stepped back as if avoiding a plague.

Xu Ming ignored everything else; he had already used his spiritual vision to pinpoint the location of the dangerous sniper, and immediately used telepathy.

'Haruyuki, attack the enemy flagship's left-hand side warship!'

'Hi!'

Haruyuki Arita, whose whereabouts had been unknown, finally took action under Xu Ming's orders.

With a piercing whistling sound, a silvery-white meteor fell from the sky.

It wasn't until the meteor was less than a hundred meters above the warship that the people on board noticed something was wrong.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Amidst the terrified screams of the crew of that warship.

boom!

With a loud bang, the warship was smashed through the center by Haruyuki Arita.

The warship immediately broke in two and sank into the sea within minutes.

Xu Ming had been monitoring the warship with his spiritual vision. He personally witnessed a warrior carrying a huge longbow mingling among the Greek soldiers and jumping into the sea.

As expected, a sniper's first skill is a long-range, one-shot kill, and his second skill is escaping.

Xu Ming immediately shook the bone jade bell and released all three undead in one go.

Three monstrous skeletons suddenly appeared on the battlefield and plunged into the sea amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd.

Soon the sea near the warship began to boil, and a strong man leaped out of the water, followed by three terrifying skeletal monsters, who then became entangled with him.

Heroes from nearby warships noticed the unusual situation and immediately jumped into the sea to try to rescue the crew.

A cold glint flashed in Xu Ming's eyes.

He picked up the Ice Rose, unleashed the Frost Domain, and then ordered Erina and Puck to cast ice-attribute spells together.

Before long, a massive blizzard covered the sea area, freezing the soldiers and heroes who had fallen into the water.

Hey!

A moment later, three corpses suddenly emerged from under the ice, followed by a head with its eyes wide open in death being flung onto the ice.

Seeing that the formidable marksman was finally dead, Xu Ming nodded in satisfaction.

After eliminating a major threat, Xu Ming was free to act, and he picked up his phone and started snapping photos of the Greek coalition forces.

Purple-gold flashes kept appearing on the beach.

While the exorcising light cannot harm humans, it can dispel the energy attached to them.

The goddess's divine power was strong, but it was ultimately like a tree without roots or water without a source. Under the continuous exposure of the exorcising light, the divine power enhancement attached to the Greek coalition was quickly dispelled.

Without the goddess's blessing, the Greeks once again fell into decline. The territory they had painstakingly captured was taken back by the Trojans.

However, at that moment, a huge cheer suddenly came from the rear of the Greek army.

Xu Ming immediately looked up and soon saw a group of warriors of various shapes rushing up from the rear of the allied forces.

They wore different armors, some even with their upper bodies bare, only wearing something resembling a breastplate on their chests.

The weapons they carried were all different, including knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, and even strange weapons such as meteor hammers, iron gauntlets, and double-headed guns.

This group was small, numbering only a few hundred, but their momentum was in no way inferior to that of a thousand troops.

Regardless of their character, they are the most powerful warriors on this land.

They are extraordinary individuals who have accomplished feats that are difficult for ordinary people to achieve; they are... heroes.

These incredibly powerful warriors quickly demonstrated their might.

They charged straight into the Trojan lines under a hail of arrows. Many heroes were struck by arrows along the way, but very few fell.

There was no uniform shield formation, but the heroes wielded their weapons and knocked down the rain of arrows one by one. Even if they were occasionally hit by one or two arrows, as long as it wasn't a vital spot, the heroes would curse and pull out the arrows and continue advancing.

Soon the Greek heroes broke through the numerous obstacles and stormed into the Trojan army.

After close combat, they revealed an even more terrifying fighting power.

Three Trojan soldiers, wielding bronze swords, slashed at a Greek hero from different directions.

The Greek hero, caught off guard, showed no panic. He spun around like a top, his long sword drawing a graceful silver crescent in the air.

Blood gushed out, and the heads of three Trojan soldiers flew into the sky simultaneously.

Such scenes have become the norm on the battlefield.

The hero's fighting power is truly terrifying.

The powerful ones are comparable to the Hulk in the movies, rampaging through the Trojan army like heavy tanks, leaving a trail of blood wherever they go, as if Thanatos has descended.

Even the weaker ones are comparable to Captain America, surrounded by thousands of troops yet moving freely as if they were nothing, easily defeating a dozen or so opponents.
