The Path to Godhood Begins from the Otherworld

Many magicians from the Fuso delegation were knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion.

Upon seeing this, the magicians of the Jiudao family immediately activated the "Linking Wall Phalanx" and formed a line of defense against the impact.

The rest of the people, led by magicians from twenty-eight families including the Ten Master Clans, immediately began to rush towards the vicinity of Naha Airport.

They did not want to escape, but received an order to immediately block the airport.

"Father, what happened?"

As soon as the aftermath of the explosion reached the airport waiting room, Yotsuba used her wide-area psychic magic to calm the panicked people.

However, the magic she could perform at the age of 12 was limited in scope, and many people were still in a state of panic.

At this moment, her face was pale from excessive anxiety. "Could it be that Naha Port was attacked?"

"I'm afraid so." Yotsuba Genzo walked to the long-dead French windows on the side of Naha Airport near Naha Port. The terrifying mushroom cloud in the sky was reflected in his eyes, and a terrible suspicion arose in his heart. "Judging from the scope of the explosion, it's not ruled out that the other party used a small-scale tactical nuclear weapon."

Yotsuba Shenye felt something strange when she heard this. She waved her hand, stopping the female magician of the Kuroba family, a branch of the Yotsuba family, from trying to support her. She said to Yotsuba Genzo, "I don't think the people who attacked Naha Port used tactical nuclear weapons, because I can clearly feel that the flow of particles in the air has become seriously disturbed."

"what do you mean?"

When Yotsuba Motozo heard her eldest daughter say this, she frowned, "Did a magician use strategic-level magic against Naha Port?"

"Wouldn't it be better if Father contacted the Naha Port Navy?"

Yotsuba Eisaku, who was standing by, heard Yotsuba's question late at night and explained with a serious expression,

"Late at night, we were unable to contact the Naha Port Navy. It seems that Naha Airport's external communications have been completely paralyzed by the impact of the explosion."

"Did the attackers at Naha Port use strategic-level magic comparable to a small tactical nuclear bomb?"

Yotsuba Genzo trusted his eldest daughter's judgment. After hearing Yotsuba Eisaku's report, he was not surprised but quickly issued instructions, "Eisaku, notify the representatives of the other digital families to gather at the airport control tower for a meeting. Have the remaining magicians in the delegation restore order at the airport as soon as possible. Then send a few people to Naha Port to investigate the situation. Remember to wear radiation protection equipment."

"I'll make arrangements right away."

Yotsuba Eisaku wrote down Yotsuba Motozo's instructions one by one, turned around and strode away.

Looking at his uncle's receding back, Yotsuba Shenye couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

Uncle, please be careful on this trip.

"It's late at night. You should go down and rest immediately. Don't waste your time trying to appease the people. The attack on Naha Port at this time means that the Okinawa Islands may be invaded by the enemy at any time. As the Yotsuba family, we must be prepared to deal with the next emergency and be ready to die for Fuso at any time."

"But father, if we just leave these people alone..."

"Late at night, obey orders."

Yotsuba Motozo rudely interrupted Yotsuba's late-night speech. He stared at her with a cold gaze and spoke slowly, "We are in a state of war now. Everything must be done according to wartime regulations."

"I understand." Siye heard this late at night, her eyes reddened. She bit her lip lightly, and took a last look at the people in the airport waiting hall who were like headless flies. She was surprised to find that these ordinary people, whether they were from Japan or foreigners, were being driven together with sticks by the airport police, the magicians of the Japanese delegation, and the airport security personnel like livestock.

So, is this war?

For the first time, Yotsuba truly felt the horror of war late at night, and saw how miserable the treatment of ordinary people was when war came.

This cast a shadow over her young mind.

Because she found that she actually never understood the cruelty of war.

However, at this moment, Yotsuba Shenye understood why his father, Yotsuba Genzo, was given the title of "Blade of Death" by the Fuso magic world.

It turns out that my father never cared about the lives of ordinary people in Fuso...

Thinking of this, some of Yotsuba's fantasies about her father were shattered, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.

Fortunately, his sister had been brought back to Fuso by Luo Shu in advance, otherwise, his sister would have been sent by his father to investigate Naha Port.

Sister, now it seems that your choice to disappear was undoubtedly wise.

Perhaps only by leaving the Yotsuba family can I find true happiness...

Thinking of this, Yotsuba Shinya felt a disgust for war for the first time.

On the other hand, in the Fuso delegation, the magicians from the ten master clans and the twenty-eight major numerical families led the magicians from their respective branches to rush to Naha Port.

Luo Shuze had already controlled the commander's magic armor and activated the supersonic sea navigation mode at the first time, arriving at the sea hundreds of miles away from Naha Port.

Through the [Farsight Achievement] magic spell attached to the commander's armor, he was able to see the process of the original trident's decomposition magic destroying the warships and port facilities in Naha Port.

However, the explosion caused by this trident is comparable in scale to that of a small tactical nuclear bomb.

Looking at the red mushroom cloud in the distance, he couldn't help but be glad that he chose to stay away in the first place.

However, Luo Shu did not forget to clean up the mess, so he put the original trident into the Sky Island World, and then took out the β trident from his back.

"It just so happens that the original trident just now seemed to have only destroyed the military infrastructure on the ground in Naha Port, and had little impact on underground facilities such as the underground hangars where fighter planes were parked.

Well, this second time, we can clean up the nuclear contamination while focusing on these underground hangars. The fleet in Naha Port is already crippled, and the Fuso Navy stationed in Naha Port is also crippled. Now, crippling the Fuso Air Force as well would save a lot of trouble."

Thinking of this, Luo Shu controlled the commander's magic armor and walked on the waves again towards Naha Port.

This time, because there was no threat from the naval warships in Naha Port, he was able to reach a location about three or four nautical miles from Naha Port smoothly and quickly.

Then, Luo Shu ignored the conspicuous warning sound from the commander's magic armor that the radioactive contamination in the environment exceeded the standard and stopped on the sea.

He pulled out the Beta Trident from behind and adjusted its output power to maximum.

After all, this time they need to simultaneously purify the nuclear pollution and destroy the underground military facilities in Naha Port, which requires a lot of energy. He is worried that the power will not be enough because the distance is too far.

After all, if you want to destroy underground military facilities, the explosion must be of sufficient magnitude and the explosion point must be precise.

After spending several minutes, Luo Shu finally completed the debugging of the Beta Trident, and based on the relevant information about Okinawa Island that he obtained from the World Tree Terminal by paying 1 World Origin Points, he quickly confirmed the specific location of the underground hangar in Naha Port.

Then, Luo Shu held the strangely shaped β trident, converted his ether into thoughts, and slowly poured it into the special CAD, activating its magic formula of decomposition magic.

The tip of the β trident emitted a brilliant white light, different from the red light of the original trident, and circles of faint blue electric arcs lingered around it. This was a special phenomenon caused by the internal external output power of the CAD being adjusted to the extreme threshold.

Luo Shu silently waited for the Beta Trident to be fully charged, and then decisively pulled the trigger.

Then, he immediately teleported the burning β Trident back to the Sky Island World and threw it away. He controlled the commander's magic armor, activated the supersonic sea navigation mode, and rushed towards the sea far away from Naha Port.

However, he still underestimated the intensity of the second explosion.

Luo Shu had just left less than 10 nautical miles when he felt a sudden push on his back from the blast, causing him to stagger and almost losing control of the commander's magic armor.

However, [Natural Flesh S] gave Luo Shu super physical fitness. He quickly regained his body balance and then regained control of the commander's magic armor.

He rushed hundreds of miles in one breath before turning off the supersonic sea mode. He looked back at the mushroom cloud, which was a whole circle larger than the previous red mushroom cloud, and couldn't help but secretly click his tongue.

"My goodness, is the explosion caused by the Beta Trident's peak output so powerful?"

However, after he sighed, he quickly looked away.

After all, Luo Shu still needs to rush to the second attack location - Tsushima Island.

Chapter 34: The Sorrow of Tsushima Island

The reason for choosing this place is mainly because it is the sea transit station for Fuso to march into the Korean Peninsula. In 2062, it was built into a permanent sea fortress by the independent Fuso Navy.

After Fuso took advantage of America's withdrawal of its troops from South Korea and occupied South Korea, Tsushima Island became a freight transit station responsible for transporting food, mineral energy, Korean slaves with magician qualifications and other resources that Fuso urgently needed from South Korea to Fuso.

Therefore, the scale of the Fuso Navy stationed on Tsushima Island even exceeds that of Naha Port.

This time, Luo Shu did not choose the imperial weapon [Shangri-La], but continued to control the commander's magic armor. After all, the experience of walking on the waves is actually quite good.

What's important is that he wants to declare his existence in a high-profile manner.

The reason why he used the imperial weapon [Shangri-La] to teleport to Naha Port was, on the one hand, to save time, and on the other hand, to create a sense of mystery as a mysterious strategic-level magician suddenly appeared.

Now, he believed that his two strategic-level magic attacks on Naha Port were being closely monitored by satellites deployed in outer space by the "Echelon System", a global monitoring system that existed in the magical world.

In particular, within the Demonic World's "echelon system," there existed a hacker-like system called the "Supreme Throne" specifically designed to gather intelligence. Luo Shu didn't want to publicly expose his possession of a spatial item in front of so many people.

A trump card only has strategic deterrent effect before it is exposed.

As for the exposure of the commander's magic armor, it doesn't matter. Anyway, according to the magic and technological level of the inferior world, even if they get this set of magic equipment, they don't have the ability to perform reverse engineering.

What's more, Luo Shu specially exchanged for this set of magical equipment, not only to disguise his true identity and maintain mystery, but also to show the general image of a mysterious strategic magician to the outside world.

Back to the topic, Luo Shu controlled the commander's magic armor towards Tsushima Island. After sailing in supersonic sea mode for more than an hour, he arrived at the waters around Tsushima Island.

What surprised him a little was that the Fuso Navy on Tsushima Island seemed to have not received the news of the attack on Naha Port, because there were still frequent ships traveling near the port of Tsushima.

In fact, Luo Shu forgot that the explosion caused by the trident would not only cause radioactive pollution, but also cause an EMP pulse effect. After the two strategic magic attacks he launched, the external communications of Naha Port and several surrounding areas affected by the explosion were completely cut off. At this time, the area within hundreds of nautical miles around Naha Port in Okinawa had become a veritable information island.

Luo Shu was surprised and distressed when he saw the busy scene at the port of Tsushima Island.

Because Tsushima Port is different from purely military ports such as Naha Port, the port of Tsushima Island is under semi-militarized management. Only when the Fuso Navy receives a war mobilization order will the troops stationed on Tsushima Island implement military control over the port.

The reason for his distress was precisely the special nature of Tsushima Port, which meant that he could not directly use large-scale indiscriminate killing strategic magic such as the Trident.

After all, among these ships traveling to and from the port of Tsushima Island, there are quite a number of civilian merchant ships from various countries.

He just wanted to make the "mysterious strategic magician" a magician who was hostile to Fuso for some reason and launched a retaliatory action, rather than wanting to portray him as a terrorist who was regarded by other countries as a self-proclaimed military force that could indiscriminately attack people of all countries.

The two are completely different in nature. The former means that there is strategic value in cooperation and winning over all countries except Fuso. Even with Luo Shu's understanding of the nature of the Fuso nation, the Fuso government, which admires strength, will choose to cooperate and win over if given the opportunity. As for the latter, it means that it is uncontrollable for all countries and therefore has no value in cooperation and winning over.

"Looks like I can only use Mass Explosion S in advance. After all, it's more controllable than the Trident and Beta Trident."

【Mass Explosion S】, the basic principle of its magic is to decompose mass directly into energy instead of through annihilation reaction.

Since there is no energy loss caused by the production of neutrinos in the annihilation reaction, the effect of mass explosion is more significant.

According to Einstein's formula, the heat released by the decomposition of 50 mg of mass is equivalent to 1 kiloton of TNT, which means its power is equivalent to that of a small nuclear bomb.

This shows that many magics in the demonic world can actually be explained by scientific theories.

Luo Shu estimated that this was the main reason why the mysterious status of the world in the Demonic World was so low. In fact, the magic system had not completely broken away from the scope of the scientific system. After all, it had only been around for more than half a century.

Thinking of this, he activated the [Undersea Technique A] magic technique of the Commander Magic Armor and disappeared on the sea.

Luo Shu found a secluded coral reef at the bottom of the sea near Tsushima Island, sat down cross-legged, and began to think about how to more efficiently and accurately attack the Fuso military personnel and military facilities stationed on Tsushima Island while avoiding causing damage to civilian merchant ships of various countries.

"Unless I can infiltrate the underground facility of the Fuso Navy stationed on Tsushima Island and launch [Mass Explosion S] from within the underground facility, the impact of this magical explosion on the ground and the surrounding area should be minimized."

To put it simply, Luo Shu's idea is to use [Mass Explosion S] to create an effect similar to a bunker-buster bomb.

"But how can I sneak in secretly? Wait, maybe I don't need to sneak in myself."

Luo Shu thought about how he possessed the [Runemaking Skill Inheritance], and that Sky Island World also had a lot of high-quality yew, osmanthus, and paulownia woods that had already been processed...

"Can I convert [Mass Explosion S] into a spell and attach it to the wooden sign?"

Luo Shu thought of his sudden idea before, which was to attach a teleportation wooden sign to the teleportation anchor point of the Sky Island World on the wooden sign. He felt more and more that after improving the [Mass Explosion S] with the etheric technique, he would engrave the technique on the wooden sign in a similar way to making a rune amulet. This plan seemed feasible.

After all, the magic [Mass Explosion S] is always activated by thought particles. In the demonic world, its power may be comparable to that of a nuclear explosion, which is already exaggerated. However, Luo Shu intends to use ether to replace thought particles, and the effect it can cause will undoubtedly be even more exaggerated.

However, because the new technique was too powerful, he finally chose to refer to the actual effect of the [Mass Explosion S] magic as a data reference.

The etheric ritual system is backward compatible with all mystical systems, so it is naturally quite simple to improve the [Mass Explosion S] of the thought magic system.

Based on the magical principle of [Mass Explosion S], Luo Shu intends to develop an etheric spell that can be engraved on a wooden sign. After the spell is activated, the mass of material consumed will be constant at 50 mg, and the material required to decompose and release heat from this 50 mg mass will be taken from the wooden sign itself.

The real difficulty in developing this technique lies in how to precisely control the mass of the wooden plaque decomposed by this etheric technique so that it does not exceed the prescribed threshold and remains constant at 50 mg.

Luo Shu thought hard but still had no clue, so he could only turn to the World Tree Terminal for help.

The World Tree Terminal quickly gave a suggestion, which was to let Luo Shu refer to the process of wood decaying due to wood decay fungi in the process of developing the technique, and artificially interfere with and control the decomposition rate of [Mass Burst S]. In this way, the heat released during the mass decomposition process is no longer released all at once, but is released continuously for a period of time before accumulating to the heat threshold corresponding to the decomposition of 50 mg of mass, thereby achieving the ultimate goal of delaying the activation of the technique.

When Luo Shu heard this suggestion, he suddenly understood. "I see. This is like adding a delayed fuse to this newly developed ether technique."

When the World Tree Terminal heard Luo Shu's question, it gave an affirmative answer.

When Luo Shu heard this, he immediately understood.

After all, the information about [Mass Explosion S] has detailed records of the decomposition speed when the magic formula is activated.

With the relevant data, he quickly completed the development of a new technique. Its decomposition rate was controllable and stable, and the extreme thresholds of its mass decomposition were temporarily divided into two power levels of 50 mg and 500 mg.

Luo Shu named it [Heavenly Punishment Technique].

Class D, which he tentatively designated as "anti-building grade", means that the heat released by the decomposition of 50 milligrams of mass is equivalent to the explosive power of 1 tons of TND equivalent. An explosion of 1 tons of TNT equivalent can cause complete destruction of surrounding objects within 300 meters of the explosion center.

Class C, which he named "city-level," means the heat released by the decomposition of 500 milligrams of mass would produce an explosion equivalent to 1 tons of TNT. Buildings within a kilometer of the blast center would be completely flattened, enough to cause devastating damage to a small county. The greatest threat from an explosion of this size is the shock wave, powerful enough to blow away cars within two kilometers and even people.

According to the formula for the killing range of nuclear weapons, the shock wave killing radius of a tactical nuclear bomb with a TNT equivalent of 1 tons is about 450 meters, and the light radiation radius is about 600 meters.

Compared with conventional tactical nuclear bombs, the advantage of the ether technique newly developed by Luo Shu is that it does not cause any pollution.

Luo Shu is not considering developing higher power levels for the time being. After all, the C-level [Heavenly Punishment Spell] alone has already reached the rating standard for strategic-level magic in the world of magic.

In Luo Shu's mind, Class B is the "capital-destroying level" that can directly cause a devastating blow to the capital of a small country, while Class A is the "territorial destruction level" that can cause large-scale destruction to the territory of medium- to large-sized countries.

He estimated that he would not need to use the A and B level [Heavenly Punishment Techniques] in the future unless necessary.

Once a new etheric spell is developed, it becomes much easier to engrave it on a wooden plaque.
