Revive Rome: Wait! Why not make the empress fall in love with me first?-Chapter 460 - 75 Salmatia
Chapter 460: Chapter 75 Salmatia
During their march, War God Leopold activated an Extraordinary Item, rendering everyone rapidly invisible.
Soon, continuous booming sounds came from above, emitted by swarms of drones patrolling in all directions, meticulous as guard bees protecting their hive.
In such an open area, once exposed under these swarms, the barrage and focused fire they would face were imaginable.
While invisible, the group finally reached the perimeters of Salmatia.
This was a colossal moving fortress, its structure towering hundreds of meters high, reaching straight into the heavens, covering a staggeringly vast area.
Every few meters along the outer perimeter were wall-style Force Field Shield generators, pulling up translucent azure walls through coiled pillars. Even before approaching these force field walls, everyone felt their Spirituality intensely suppressed, forcing them out of invisibility.
Anti-Demon Magnetic Field
"Here, you three take these," Aske said as he took spare handguns from Miel, hand them over to Medea, Thira, and Nora.
These three ladies had their abilities greatly restricted within the Anti-Demon Magnetic Field (as the Spirituality consumed to use abilities could not be replenished), forcing them to rely primarily on firearms. If Peggy hadn’t possessed the skill "Death Law," which allowed her to let the surrounding Anti-Demon Magnetic Field "apoptosis" in critical situations, Aske wouldn’t have dared to bring these three ladies into actual combat.
"The next part is on you," said the two demigods.
Peggy stepped forward composedly, her gaze fixed on the force field walls. Death tadpoles materialized around her, resisted the suppression of the Anti-Demon Magnetic Field, and surged forward. Moments later, the translucent azure wall surface suddenly flashed with snowflake-like patterns. freēnovelkiss.com
Then abruptly disappeared.
The force field generators on both sides of the wall also rapidly collapsed into the soil, with loud alarm sounds echoed throughout Salmatia.
"Go!" The two demigods immediately rushed inside.
"Let’s follow them!" Aske quickly urged everyone to move forward swiftly.
With the collapse of the force field shield, the nearby patrolling drone swarms almost instantly noticed something was amiss, buzzing as they dove down. Many Synthetic Humans also rushed towards, lifting firearms swiftly aiming at the group.
Huh? They are actually aiming at me this time?
In his surprise, Aske drew his Dragon Bone Longsword in an instant, swinging it in the air so densely that the sound of bullets being split crackled through the air.
Something feels off! As soon as he made the first strike, his gaze quickly shifted downwards, swiftly glanced at the bullets he had split.
These are smart electric shock bullets! While not lethal, they are anti-violence ammunition designed to incapacitate the target temporarily!
Indeed, this was also why Aske opted for the Dragon Bone Sword—metal weapons were too susceptible to being countered by electric shock abilities or equipment.
War God Leopold was the first to charge into the Synthetic Humans’ ranks, swinging his long sword at a breathtaking speed beside him. He didn’t possess the BUG-like swordsmanship of Star Nine Forms but relied purely on his eyesight and wrist strength to slice bullets away, intercepting in front of the Synthetic Humans.
Wilderness Bear Mason, meanwhile, charged at the base of the building, warhammer in hand, swinging one, two, three, four times, rapidly denting the alloy wall, eventually breaking a large hole into it.
"Go!" Mason roared and then swiftly rushed into the building with his warhammer.
The Azure Longsword members followed immediately, with Leopold covering the rear, somehow managed to blast down the wall’s opening again, blocking the route of pursuing Synthetic Humans.
The exterior of the Salmatian Beehive looked brutish and crude, seemingly sturdy, and the inside looked... even more brutish and crude. Pipes and lines covered the ceilings and walls, with groups of spider robots crawling along these pipelines, not attacking anyone.
The demigods and The Azure Longsword Mercenaries didn’t provoke these spiders; instead, speeding along, they quickly arrived at a spacious workshop.
Scattered production lines interlaced each other, continuously transporting various mechanical parts, which were assembled, combined, and welded by mechanical arms on either side until delivered into the next workshop.
Everyone had not yet reacted when an automatic turret suddenly descended from the ceiling and began to fire at everyone rapidly.
The sound of shooting was not the typical explosion of bullets being fired, but rather it sounded like something was burning, accompanied by extremely vivid red lasers shooting out like lightning.
Wilderness Bear Mason immediately stood in front of everyone, the laser hitting his chest and instantly melting a large hole.
Yet, this demigod acted as if nothing had happened, casually picking up a spider robot that was crawling along the wall and using it as a projectile to smash the laser turret.
"This Wilderness Bear’s Energy Storage Law not only accumulates kinetic energy or momentum but also stores physical power," Aske explained to everyone over the secret mind channel, "Every time he gets injured, the wound heals through physical power, and a certain proportion of the consumed physical power is stored, then fully restored when he is severely wounded."
"Considering this demigod’s age, you might guess how much physical power he had accumulated during the last Magic Tide. Remember, only a demigod can kill a demigod, even when using the upper limit of the Magic Tide, it’s their own uncontrolled spirituality that kills them."
Wilderness Bear’s body slightly vibrated, the large hole in his chest had completely healed, his healing speed comparable to that of the Flesh Sequence.
"Destroy this place," War God Leopold commanded and then charged forward with his sword.
From across the production line, numerous synthetic humans rushed forward, their firearms emitting lasers that almost formed a net in the air. War God Leopold, with his astonishing speed, dodged these lasers. However, a figure quickly surpassed him, charging into the army of synthetic humans with a speed that was impossible to catch with the naked eye.
Wilderness Bear’s multiplicative charge generated additional force with each step he took, rapidly reaching maximum speed. Everything in his path, whether production lines, robotic arms, synthetic humans, or any other obstacles, was brutally smashed to pieces by his dynamic energy.
The artistic nature of the War God’s attacks made his longsword seem to carry a mysterious rhythm. As his strikes flowed like the wind, a series of production lines broke apart, mechanical arms were shattered, and synthetic humans were torn to pieces, causing a domino effect of destruction.
As for the members of The Azure Longsword, they fared much worse under the suppression of the anti-demon magnetic field.
Eleanor, holding a shield, rushed forward to provide cover for the two demigods, but they moved so fast in their attack that they outpaced her.
Sigrdrifa laughed heartily; although she couldn’t freely use frost and thunder due to her giant bloodline, she still thrived, causing destruction throughout the workshop.
Peggy’s hot melt blade was particularly effective; any metal it touched melted and was cut without any obstruction. Mia, however, was more helpless, wandering around with a short knife without finding anything to destroy or items of value worth taking, truly a frustrating situation.
Miel, holding a sniper rifle, skillfully provided support to suppress the synthetic humans confronting the demigods. Three magic system girls, wielding handguns, followed Miel and shot wildly, although they did not manage to inflict much damage, they seemed to be having a lot of fun.
Aske stayed back, openly spectating the chaos. Suddenly, a spider robot approached him, extended a tiny metal claw, and tugged at his pant leg.
Looking down in confusion, he saw the spider robot’s top cover open, revealing a tiny wireless earpiece inside.
Aske: ......
Sweeping his spirituality imbued with War Law over it, he confirmed it wasn’t a mini bomb or any kind of military weapon, then bent down to pick it up. The spider robot immediately closed its cover and skittered away on its eight mechanical legs.
After examining the earpiece for a few moments, Aske popped it into his ear.
He then heard a steady voice.
"Hello."
"Oh, hello," Aske responded, "What can I do for you?"
"The Azure Longsword Mercenary Corps?" the voice on the other end asked.
"Yes," Aske replied, "I’m the squad leader of The Azure Longsword. The name is too long for now, but you can call me Aske."
"Alright," the voice said, "My name is Giovanni Rotario de Conti."
"But the believers call me Innocent, Holy See Innocent."
