Chapter 509: 509
No, This Isn’t
A sharp howl rose. Your voice was sent out from the Sea Shaker’s Control Tower on White Spring Island in the middle of the Broken Sea Domain. With the help of sound wave magic, it swept across the entire island in an instant.
Invasion, highest alert, emergency.
The prosperous and noisy docks, streets, custom streets, and holiday villages of the islands instantly became dead silent. Then, an even greater clamor erupted. The well-dressed nobles rushed to the nearest underground shelter under the escort of guards and stewards, while the ordinary people were flustered and at a loss.
The guards sounded the alarm with pale faces. The mage towers lit up with defensive beams. Many private islands had already activated defensive magic devices that were made with a lot of money. Semi-circular protective shields formed a safe area. Spell casters rushed into the sky one after another. On many uninhabited islands, the rock walls were separated, and the dense forests collapsed. The huge magic devices slowly rotated and revealed their forms, shining with arcane brilliance towards the sky.
In an instant, the Broken Islands, which had been carefully built by countless people with power and wealth and passed down from generation to generation, revealed a powerful ability to deal with crises. The people living here were the most despicable people in the world. They knew that their wealth came from sin, so they desperately enjoyed it and were extremely afraid of death.
The sole purpose of hiring spellcasters and the most powerful alchemists to build a defense system was to ensure that even if the Royal Fleet of the Sunset Moon Dynasty launched a surprise attack, the important figures on the island would be able to hide among the soldiers and wait for an opportunity to escape.
Therefore, after detecting a mass attack on the way, the defense system was activated, the mage tower was activated, the large-scale magic devices were recharged, the spellcasters took off, and the big shots headed to the Sanctuary. Everything was in order.
However, this was the best he could do.
“In the sky!”
On the street, someone pointed at the sky. The sky was shining brightly. Above the blue sky, red meteors broke through the white clouds. It was like a chariot of the God of Fire bathed in holy fire as it galloped across the sky.
It whistled past, casting the shadow of death on the ground faster than an arrow.
“It’s a meteorite!”
On the streets, the lowly people shouted in panic.
“It’s Kant!”
In the luxurious residence, the noble people roared in shock and anger.
“It’s Kant!”
On the Wizard Tower of Arkins Island, the brown-haired Spell Caster trembled and roared. He looked at the sky, his eyes filled with endless fear and despair.
Under such circumstances, the ignorance of mortals was a blessing. For a knowledgeable and experienced mage like him, he could determine the size and speed of the meteorite in the sky with just a glance.
Naturally, he knew what such spellcasting ability and attack power meant.
In an instant, the noble spellcaster was no different from the commoners who were running around and screaming. He grabbed his Aurora colleague beside him, his hands trembling.” It’s Kant!” It’s Kant!”
The power of forbidden spells was limited. In front of the top forces, forbidden spells were nothing. He was willing to write these words on a piece of paper a thousand times and swallow them all in exchange for not being on the island today.
“We’re dead!”
His tears were about to fall.” I’m dead. We’re all dead. You’re dead too!” So this is the Forbidden Mage you revere! He doesn’t even know who you are! A single Forbidden Spell could kill millions of people here! Hundreds of years of business!
The western sea trade hub is all over!”
In return, his colleague denied it decisively.
“No!”
Archmage Aurora, who had fled from the East when he was young, shook his head resolutely. How can someone who can say the Valentan declaration be so cruel and heartless?”
The brown-haired mage wailed,”That’s just a lie!” How could he believe such words! This forbidden spell…”
“The Forbidden Spell’s landing point isn’t on the Broken Islands!” the Skyquaker shouted.
“.. What?”
The brown-haired mage miraculously calmed down.
He activated Eagle Eye, and his pupils quickly changed shape. He calculated quickly in his heart, and after a moment, he revealed an ecstatic expression. The landing point is very far from here!”
” Let’s go!” The mage turned around and grabbed his companion.” Let’s go!” This shot was most likely to test the landing point and adjust the parameters of the spell model! While he’s missing, let’s quickly think of a way to escape to a safe place!”
“No, I didn’t miss.” The people from Aurora still shook their heads.
“.. Didn’t he miss? Just to scare people? To scare people from so far away?” The brown-haired mage glared at him.” What kind of deterrence is this?
It would only make people think that he was bluffing, and it would only expose his weakness and fear. Even the Forbidden Spell had to be cast from afar for fear of hurting people, so why not come closer?”
Wizard Aurora did not answer. He pondered for a moment and swept all the documents and information on the table to the ground. He pressed on the crystal ball beside him and poured his magic power into it. He identified the soul fluctuation, mobilized his magic power, and opened the Atmospheric Perspective Array. The crystal ball projected a real image on the table.
What he saw was scorching and distorted air, as well as a huge red celestial body. The Atmospheric Penetration Array was chasing after the meteorite, and below it was an endless sea.
“You’re using the magic power of the Mage Tower for this?” the brown-haired mage asked in surprise. This…”
Before he could finish, the arcane light on the wizard tower on the island to the left also changed. The atmospheric perspective array was activated and projected to the mansions on the peaks of the islands.
The Spell Casters, the higher-ups, and the big shots on the island were relieved when they realized that the target of the Forbidden Spell was not on the Broken Archipelago. They also felt disdain for the so-called Forbidden Spell Mages.
This kind of deterrence really made people laugh their teeth off.
Even though they said that to show their strategic contempt for the enemy, they still ordered the mages to use the atmospheric perspective array to broadcast the scene of the forbidden spell bombardment in real time.
In fact, even without their orders, the mages would do it themselves. No spellcaster would resist the temptation to witness the power of the forbidden spells recorded in the ancient books.
The two mages on duty were looking at the scene on the table. Above the boundless blue waves, a huge celestial body burning with raging flames roared down.
Shock waves were surging in the air. Flames, debris, flame tails, and air waves intertwined. Even if the atmospheric perspective could not transmit sound, they could imagine the earth-shaking roar.
At this moment, the two of them, as well as many Spell Casters and important figures who were watching this scene, could not help but think of the Battle of Valentan, the battle report that was sent to all parts of the world.
Stars fell from the sky.
This was the first direct description of forbidden spells in this world after the end of the ancient era.
They had thought that this description was exaggerated.
The shooting star, which was shaking with flames and shock waves, roared and crashed into the vast sea.
To the entire ocean, it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake.
The atmospheric perspective flipped, changing the perspective and looking down from above.
Even though they couldn’t hear the sound, the moment they saw the meteorite fall into the sea, everyone narrowed their eyes.
They witnessed the whole process through magic.
They saw the torrent brought by the high-speed impact of the meteorite, punching out a deep concave surface on the calm sea. They saw the flames of the meteorite burning out a large amount of steam.
They saw the massive celestial body smashing into the sea. In an instant, it created a huge depression on the surface of the sea. Countless amounts of seawater splashed in all directions along the surface of the celestial body. The waves that were stimulated were like flowers blooming, spreading and rolling in the surroundings. The waves surged and roared.
But this was only the beginning.
It was just the least magical part of a scene that was difficult to witness in a thousand years.
Then, they saw a huge and swift meteorite crashing into the sea, breaking through the seawater and bursting out a deep and huge cavity under the surface. Looking down from above, it was as if an endless abyss had appeared in the sea, and the seawater flowed down like a waterfall, flowing into the unknown mysterious realm.
Then, the seawater that had been pushed away by the meteorite filled up the huge cavity. The huge cavity rose from the bottom, forming a terrifying vortex. Because it was so huge, it was a scene that was both fast and slow from the sky. It was like the divine work of nature, forever shocking the soul.
It felt as if a century had passed, as if it had only been an instant.
They heard a loud noise coming from afar.
The abyss was swallowed by the sea, or rather, an even greater tide erupted from the abyss.
The terrifying pressure provided by the huge ocean bound by the planet caused the seawater that was pushed away by the meteorite to counterattack with even greater force. This force not only pushed the seawater to fill the hole, but it also pushed the seawater that was pushed back out of the water surface, forming a terrifying Worthington jet!
In an instant, the ocean exploded. Before the ring-shaped waves created by the meteorite had dissipated, a terrifying mountain peak had already split the ocean. Countless water vapor, splashes, and waves shot into the sky, as if a peak made of water had risen on the ocean and then began to collapse!
Wizard Aurora and his companions held their breaths as they watched this scene.
From a bird’s eye view, pure white flowers were blooming continuously, and waves of white waves were spreading out in all directions. From the front view of the other mage tower, they saw a snow mountain that was collapsing. Countless waterfalls were thrown into the sky, and then fell in all directions. The mountain peak was so huge and spectacular that even from a distance, the collapse speed was very slow.
A huge amount of seawater crashed down, hitting the surface of the sea and stirring up the air.
The terrifying waves surged wildly, blowing the storm in all directions. Invisible ripples swept across the stormy sea and spread wildly.
The people of the Broken Islands saw this scene.
He saw a snow-colored mountain appear on the distant sea.
It was like a miracle.
However, the mages ‘expressions changed drastically.
Because of the collapse of the snow mountain, the water fell back, and the impact caused by the huge amount of seawater falling on the surface of the sea pushed the waves formed by the initial collision, sweeping the turbulent tsunami and violent gale across the entire Endless Ocean.
He also swept his gaze towards the clueless Broken Islands.
“Storm!”
The sailors on the mast immediately noticed the strange sign. They screamed and roared, but in the face of such power, human struggle was so laughable.
A storm came from afar, carrying a huge amount of misty water vapor. The hurricane blew at an unimaginable speed. The strong wind blew away the masts, shook the water surface, pushed away the horizontal hull, and blew away the goods, ropes, and sundries at the dock.
In the blink of an eye, the sunlight was covered by the mist. Sand and stones flew everywhere, and the whole place was covered in a wet and cold mist. People screamed in despair and grabbed everything they could around them. They dodged, collapsed, and howled. The mist that followed condensed into beads like a storm. It hit, spurted, and splashed. The surging waves and the dripping rain slapped and splashed. The waves shook and violently swept across the entire broken sea area.
Wave after wave.
It was raining heavily.
The wind was biting cold.
Rooftops, masts, stakes, and debris were blown away. The pier was shattered, and the small boat overturned. In front of the wrath of heaven and earth, everyone was crying in grief and trembling.
Every island, every dock, every ship, every house.
This wave of anger hit the sea hyenas who were eager to make a fortune, the arrogant ones who said that Forbidden Mages were not worth mentioning, and the people who sat in their mansions, shaking their wine glasses and ordering others to do evil with power and money. It told them what the real power in the world was.
The biggest impact had dissipated, and the storm was still splashing. The most prosperous maritime trade hub in the western sea was already in a mess. Fortunately, because it was located on an archipelago, it had the experience and preparation to deal with a big storm. However, the ships were damaged, the docks were destroyed, and people poked their heads out of the reinforced houses. The cries gradually spread.
Whether it was the fleet of the Imperium, the hired private raiding ships, or the famous wandering fleet, the battle-hardened, high-spirited, rough, and brutal sailors slowly loosened their grip on the mainmast. They looked at each other and kept exhaling. The tyranny and willfulness of the past had disappeared.
That fearful expression was like a rookie who had just gone out to sea.
They also knew what that thing was.
It was the forbidden spell that they had talked about, despised, and even disdained when they were bragging. It was Kant, the pretty boy from Aurora, who had said,” Maybe it’s not even as big as my bird ” and ” It’s probably Goethe bragging “.
But now, that arrogant and fearless look had long disappeared.
The seed of fear had been completely planted.
The fanatical morale that had been inspired by money and promises was already in disarray.
Just like how no sailor wanted to encounter a storm on a long voyage, no sailor wanted to see the terrifying mountain in the sea near their ship.
“Do you understand now? Why did you cast the forbidden spell so far out at sea?”
In the Wizard Tower on Arkins Island, the strong wind blew through the reinforced glass, and the two Spell Casters were drenched. Wizard Aurora calmly spat out a small fish from his mouth.
“If we get a little closer, he’s afraid that we’ll be killed directly,” he said calmly.
The brown-haired mage hugged the corner of the table, trembling slightly. He could no longer utter a complete sentence.
When he was in the storm earlier, the violent scene of the dark sun and the howling wind had already caused his heart to collapse from fear. However, that was only weakened by the distance…It was just the aftermath.
In that case, the forbidden spell just now had directly smashed into the center of the Broken Islands…What would happen?
He hugged the pillar and suddenly burst into tears.
Silence was the Broken Islands of today.
Today, the Broken Isles had three surprises in one day.
His first shock was when he discovered that the forbidden spell was attacking with a terrifying momentum.
The second surprise was that although the target of the forbidden spell was not the broken archipelago, the terrifying power of the blast into the sea was still extremely shocking and terrifying.
The third shock was that even the aftershock was like a natural disaster that swept across the entire island, causing countless losses.
In the underground fallout shelter of the central island, there were sealed rooms, dim lights, and chairs around the round table. Mirror images of human bodies kept flashing. The decision-makers of the Broken Islands ‘core council stayed on their respective islands, huddled in the foolproof fallout shelter, and held an emergency consultation meeting through remote projection.
The image of a middle-aged man seemed to have just recovered from the shock. He slammed the table hard, trying to hide the fear and uneasiness in his heart. This is a declaration of war!”
“Shut up!”
The next moment, seven or eight roars sounded in unison.
The old man sitting in the main seat stared at the middle-aged man and said in a resolute tone.
“No, this isn’t it.”
” They should know what it means to not be able to go into the sea anymore,” Kant said calmly as he watched the surface of the sea, which was gradually calming down but was far from calm.
The dark halo spread out, and the Fire Stealer disappeared from the Realm Gate.
“The letter has been delivered. Return.”
