Devil's Son-in-Law-Chapter 1240: Battle of the White Sea
Human world.
It had been 3 months since the teleportation portal in the eastern continent was fully closed.
Even though the teleportation portal was closed and unable to pass through, and the White Sea had also established a unified line of defense, a large number of humans still came across the sea, wanting to escape to the western continent by sea.
The defending soldiers on the west coast of the White Sea did not completely cut off the way out for these refugees. They set up a special navigation ship team to guide the escaped ships through the defense area in the front sea area. However, the sea area of the White Sea was too large, and the deep sea area environment was very harsh, so the proportion of escape ships that could reach the navigation ship area was quite small. It was unknown how many people died in the violent waves, but no matter what, there was a glimmer of life in the end.
A few days ago, many ships safely reached the west bank of the White Sea under the guidance of the navigation team, but as time passed, the navigation team encountered fewer and fewer ships, which indicated that the situation in the eastern continent had further deteriorated.
In the past 3 months, the Human and the Demon Coalition Army had made a lot of scheduling and preparations, built a unified fortification along the coastline, and formed a joint navy in the shortest possible time through screening and training.
The eastern coast of the White Sea.
The dazzling blood covered the land on the shore. Even the clouds in the sky and the nearby waters were reflected red.
The endless army of monsters was crowded, and the roars and howls filled the entire space.
These Abyss monsters occupied the coast, the last lifeline, which meant that all the humans in the eastern continent were basically doomed.
Although the Abyss monsters were extremely powerful, they were still unable to forcefully cross the vast White Sea.
The White Sea was extremely vast. It was not comparable to a small sea area like the Nightmare Wilderness. It took several months for an ordinary ship to pass through the sea area. Even the blazing flame witch and the Abyss lord with the ability to fly could not fly directly to the west without keeping their feet on the ground except for monsters that had reached super-level. However, this was not a simple flight, but war. Now the Human Coalition Army was waiting for the enemies to wear themselves out. They had set up countless lines of defense and traps in the sea area. Going rashly like this was tantamount to going deep alone and losing the biggest advantage in numbers. Furthermore, if they consumed a lot of power on the way, they would be easily killed by the human powerhouses.
If Quilliana used the power that lava cooled and turned the sea into land, let alone whether it could be successful on this vast White Sea, the cost alone would be too high.
It seemed that the White Sea was posing a big problem for the Abyss. Unfortunately, things were not that simple.
There were special squirmings in the monster army. Strange objects were pushed into the sea on by one.
Bloody ‘ships’.
The strange and terrifying ‘ships’ had skin-like blood-red texture wriggling on its surface, contracting slightly. It looked as if it was breathing. The skeleton of the main body was a real bone. Spines, leg bones, skulls… all kinds of bones were blended together. It was obvious that the source of these bones was the corpses of humans. Each ship represented the destruction of countless lives.
After the bloody ships entered the water, the Abyss monsters jumped on the ships one after another. The ship was just like some kind of living creature, it drove forward automatically without a pilot.
More and more blood ships appeared, carrying batches of the Abyss monsters, densely packed, into the White Sea.
In the eastern sea area of the White Sea, the magic eyes on the lighthouses immediately discovered these monsters who entered the range, and they immediately reported back to the coalition army intel department of the western continent. Correspondingly, the west bank of the White Sea and the navies who had been waiting at the sea base had also started to act.
The sea was different from the land. The mobilization of the army could not be completed overnight. After getting the intel that the Abyss army crossed the sea, the blockades and magic protections of the sea area had all been opened.
After sailing for 7 days, the bloody ship fleet of the Abyss finally encountered the first line of defense laid down by the coalition army.
Boom!
There was an explosion on the surface of the water, setting off a water pillar that soared into the sky.
A bloody ship was torn apart by the terrifying explosive force. Most of the monsters on the ship died while many fell into the icy sea water. Monsters that didn’t manage to climb up to the neighboring ships gradually sank into the sea.
The explosion was so powerful that even the bodies of the 2 nearby blood ships were torn apart, exposing the gruesome bones. However, the bloody ships seemed to have a certain degree of regeneration ability.
Boom Boom Boom…
Continuous explosions sounded, and the bloody ships sank in explosions again.
This was the most commonly used defensive weapon in naval warfare, floating mines.
Floating mines floated on the water surface and exploded after being triggered. The power of the explosion was quite astonishing. Even if the bloody ships had a certain special regeneration attribute, after triggering the mines, the ships had been blown up a lot.
Just like the war on land, the Abyss fleet didn’t stop and continued to move forward.
The continuous explosions triggered some kind of magic circle trap. There was a strange fluctuation on the water surface, and rays of light flew out. After shooting 1 bloody ship, it seemed to be refracted and went to another ship, and so on. Countless rays of light were intertwined into a huge pattern.
These lights did not have any lethality; they were used for positioning. After about 10 seconds, the real magic circle was triggered.
The sea water began to spin rapidly, and a huge vortex appeared. It had a diameter of over 1,000 meters. All the bloody ships within the positioned range were sucked into the vortex and quickly swallowed up.
Many powerful Abyss monsters, such as the blazing flame witch and the Abyss lord, rose into the sky one after another. Some even activated powerful attacks on the vortex, but most of the fleet was still swallowed by the vortex.
In fact, this was not the power of the magic circle itself, but the sea.
The real function of the magic circle was not to attack, but to trigger the sea’s natural power accumulated for a long time, creating such a vortex with astonishing power and scope.
In the sea, the soft water had great power, so they didn’t need to attack directly. Sea, which was a war environment, could eliminate the enemy by itself.
That’s what naval warfare was all about.
However, the line of defense after being triggered was equivalent to losing its effect. It could no longer produce subsequent damage or threats.
Although the vanguard forces were swallowed up by half, the bloody ship fleet still advanced with the same speed. They were affected by the destruction of their companions in the slightest.
At the same time, at the headquarters on an island.
The intel officer reported, “General, the enemy has appeared in the 27th East Sea Area area. The vortex defense line and the water dragon defense line have been triggered!”
Commander Sandro revealed a pondering expression, “Report the time between the 2 lines of defense being triggered.”
“1 hour.”
Sandro thought for a while and said, “It seems that the enemy’s speed is faster than we expected. They should reach the ice-solid defense line in about 50 minutes. Order the first fleet to set off immediately. After the Abyss passes the ice-solid defense line, launch a head-on attack! The second and third fleets will set off in 30 minutes. Cut off the Abyss army in batches! Pay attention to the layer and formation of the whole army!”
“Yes!”
Next to Sandro was the second commander Gerant of the Demon Coalition Army, nodding secretly. This human general no doubt is extraordinary. He immediately estimated the sailing speed of the Abyss fleet from the time difference between the 2 lines of defense being triggered. He is also very particular with the time to dispatch his own fleet. The ‘’cut off’ of the second and third fleets is a stroke of genius, which can break up the formation of the enemy and offset the endless attribute of the Abyss army.
“Hey, let me tell you, it doesn’t need to be so troublesome.” Paglio next to him took a sip of wine and scratched his head, “Send a Pseudo-God powerhouse to wipe them out directly. For example, a crazy lady who is proficient in elements. If she launches a few magic big moves, even the screen will be cleared.”
Isabella shook her head and said, “The Abyss monsters are endless. Even if Zola keeps killing them, she can’t kill them all. It just slows down the speed of the Abyss army, which is of little significance. The real root is the 3 rulers. If you can defeat the 3 rulers, the Abyss army will naturally collapse without a fight. In terms of high-level strength, we are at a disadvantage. Now we can only use static braking and maximize tactics to counter the opponent. The Pseudo-God powerhouses, including Chen Rui, Zola, Michael, and the others can’t waste any power, and they can’t easily expose themselves. They must wait patiently and lure the rulers of the Abyss to appear on their own initiative. Only by that, we have a chance of winning.”
“Madam Aunt doesn’t need to explain. Someone’s IQ has always been negative, so don’t waste your effort.” It was Roman who made the trouble, “No wonder sometimes he can’t even beat Duoduo in magic chess.”
Paglio’s face became gloomy as he looked at Roman with contempt, and he retorted, “Your IQ will only be positive when you see widows or wives.”
“Shut up, you 2 bastards. This is the headquarters, not the bazaar!” Delia couldn’t bear it anymore and dragged the 2 guys out.
27 East Sea Area.
The surface of the sea had already frozen into ice. This kind of freezing appeared suddenly, and the area was still spreading rapidly. Large areas of bloody ships were frozen and unable to sail normally. Many of the Abyss lords jumped down and used greatswords to break the ice.
Before they finished breaking the ice, the light in the sky suddenly dimmed, and a dark cloud quickly spread in the distant sky. At a closer look, one could see huge metallic puppet shapes. Assemble puppets!
The assemble puppets did not dive down to launch an attack, but they maintained their altitude while throwing bombs downward.
The bloody ships had not fully recovered from the frozen state, so they had no way to dodge. A large-scale explosion occurred in the dense bomb rain. In addition to the damage caused by the explosion itself, the huge waves caused by the aftermath also overturned many bloody ships outside the frozen sea area.
The Abyss army was naturally unwilling to be beaten passively like this. The nearby Abyss lords and blazing flame witches rose into the air one after another and faced the assemble puppets. However, the assemble puppets did not intend to fight. After dropping this round of bombs, they immediately retreated.
The Abyss lord and the blazing flame witches pursued closely, and some of them launched attacks and even shot down some assemble puppets. The puppets still didn’t look back as they kept fleeing.
After the Abyss lords and the blazing flame witches were lured away, the bloody ships that had been frozen by the ice-solid defense line had not completely thawed, but the coalition army fleet appeared in the distance. The magic crystal cannons aimed at these targets that could not move normally. Airships loaded with bombs were slowly rising from the rear of the fleet. For this part of the bloody ship fleet that had lost its air dominance capability, these relatively slow-moving airships were no different than the most terrifying reaper.
The Abyss lords and blazing flame witches who were chasing the assemble puppet seemed to sense something amiss. When they were about to return for reinforcement, a group of giant dragons suddenly appeared from behind and blocked their way.
In the distance, on a gigantic ‘mothership’, more assemble puppets rose into the sky, and the battle of the White Sea, which was related to the fate of the entire world, officially started.
