Chapter 382: The Artifact of Bullying (10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)



Infancy is undoubtedly the most vulnerable, troublesome and care-intensive period of human life.

Even if this baby has the thinking and consciousness of an adult, many things are completely out of control.

Even though Asta had made sufficient preparations in advance, he was still forced to change his diaper during the two or three hour long statement.

After Zuo Si finished telling everything, he asked grimly, "So... it was you who destroyed this world? You killed almost everyone in the Mage Council and civilians through the magic plague?"

"No, dear mentor, it's not me, it's us.

Don't forget, it was you who brought me into this world.

And it's not my fault.

Because when I first arrived, the chaotic matter and mana from the dark void had not yet affected my body, especially not causing the viruses and bacteria in my body to mutate.

What's more, you discovered the mana and substances remaining on the clothes and conducted a lot of experiments in secret without telling me.

After all, as the chief wizard of the necromancy, you are not as ignorant as other wizards about the plague, but you have a deep research and understanding of it.

Especially for a creature like me who came from an unknown world, no isolation measures were taken from beginning to end.

In order to quickly fulfill his desire to gain eternal life, he even used every possible means to force me to learn all kinds of profound and complex magical knowledge as quickly as possible, and finally opened the portal to the continent of Faerun.

So it was us who destroyed this world and the magical civilization that the mages created based on the floating city."

Zuo Si corrected meaningfully.

Although he himself is the source of the entire magic plague, the real culprit should be Asta in front of him.

If the Great Necromancer had not concealed the most important information, with his knowledge of microorganisms, he would have most likely noticed the changes taking place in his body and avoided the outbreak of this disaster.

"Haha, you're right, we destroyed this world."

Asta, very rarely, did not defend himself, but instead let out a creepy laugh.

Similarly, he also realized that this "model" apprentice who had once obeyed his orders was now standing in a higher position and looking down on him.

The identities and status of the two parties can now be said to be completely reversed.

As a calm, rational and realistic person, Asta knew very well that it was meaningless to argue verbally at this time.

After all, he is just a baby who has difficulty in casting even the lowest level spells, but the other party has already controlled the floating city of Plantia and also possesses a vast amount of knowledge and magical power from other worlds.

Apart from anything else, just this conch shell ship hidden deep underground in the floating city, as well as the main brain in the pond behind him and the terrifying psychic powers it possesses, can easily kill him, and even distort his memory, cognition and personality.

Arguing with someone who is stronger than you and who holds power over your life and death is the most foolish thing to do, no doubt about it.

This principle was what Asta taught Zuo Si, who had not yet completed his ideological transformation, so he would not make the same mistake.

In other words, he was very clear about what he had done to the young man in front of him, and he had no doubt that the other party would take this opportunity to retaliate or even kill him.

You should know that killing a master is not a shameful act that can be exposed in the floating city world ruled by the Mage Council.

Just the opposite!

The tolerance, wisdom and strength it represents will not be despised, but encouraged and appreciated.

Because in the eyes of the mages, the act of killing the master itself means that the apprentice has surpassed his mentor, and symbolizes the "beautiful" wish that each generation is stronger than the previous one.

As for the so-called worldly morals, laws and order, they never take them seriously, let alone the need to abide by them.

Some crazy wizards would even combine their own daughters to give birth to another daughter, just to prove that their genes and bloodline are better.

Seeing that his former mentor had clearly realized his situation, Zuo Si immediately smiled with satisfaction: "Very good!

I have always believed that reaching a consensus is a good start, just like when I chose to obey your threats instead of continuing to struggle and resist in vain.

There is never any equality in relationships between people.

Even if there are only two people left in the world, one of them must obey the leadership of the other.

This is determined by the social nature of human existence.

In the past, you were stronger and smarter, with wisdom and power far beyond mine, so I obeyed you.

But now, I think things have changed a little bit.

Shouldn't you also take the initiative to express your attitude? "

As these words came out of his mouth, Asta's pupils suddenly dilated, contracted, and then dilated again.

Although he had anticipated this, he never expected Zuo Si to be so straightforward.

After a long silence, the great necromancer slowly raised the baby's disproportionately large head and asked in an uncertain tone: "You want me to work for you?"

"That's right! The Mage Council created a total of eight floating cities.

I have only captured and held two of them so far.

Also the floating cities of Plantia and Mutahar under our feet.

The whereabouts of another six are still unknown.

Moreover, as the great wizards in the floating city are resurrected one after another by negative energy and transformed into high-level undead spellcasters with intelligence, they will inevitably want to break the protective barrier of the central tower and truly control all the power of the floating city.

I need someone who knows all the peculiarities of the floating city.

Whether it's to find it out or to gain an advantage in future encounters."

Zuo Si did not try to hide anything and stated his intentions openly.

Although he could use a simpler and more brutal method, he could directly let the main brain Isadora forcibly read Asta's memory and then turn him into an obedient puppet.

But doing so would completely stifle the talent and creativity of the Great Undead Mage, which would be a loss.

"So what can I get from this?" Asta probed cautiously.

Zuo Si replied with a half-smile: “Endless magical knowledge and techniques, as well as the complete lich transformation ritual you have always desired.

Of course, the price is that after the transformation is completed, the life box must be handed over to me for safekeeping.

How about this, isn't this a good condition?"

"make a deal!"

Asta agreed without any hesitation.

After all, these conditions are much better than previously expected, and I even feel a sense of relief.

He totally didn't understand why Zuo Si didn't choose to torture and retaliate against himself given his personality.

In fact, the replica of the Necromancer's memory was not clear. Zuo Si secretly concealed a truth in his long narration just now.

That is, he killed the real Asta with his own hands, rather than the other party's accidental death due to failure in the lich transformation ritual.

Of course, the copy of Asta in front of him will never know this little secret.

His future will be the same as other liches in the organization. He will be immersed in the ocean of countless knowledge and technology and unable to extricate himself, and slowly become a tool for Zuo Si to realize various plans and ambitions.

After reaching an agreement, Zuo Si used time magic to help Asta get rid of his weak and helpless baby state, allowing him to grow into a teenager in just a few seconds.

In the next few months to a year, all he had to do was to recover his strength and then transform into a lich with the help of Vanessa and Tyrantil.

Before handing over the life box, he will be in a state of complete isolation from the world, unable to leave the surveillance of the main brain, nor can he enter the great library to access the knowledge and technology.

There is no doubt that the mysterious time magic aroused Asta's irrepressible interest, and he immediately put all his energy into quickly recovering his strength without saying a word.

After he was taken to another room next door by the Mind Flayer, the main brain Isadora asked through the mental connection: "Are you sure this guy is trustworthy? I can sense through his thoughts that the reason he chooses to obey you now is because of the situation.

Once he gets the chance, he will betray you without hesitation, or even stab you in the back."

“There has never been absolute loyalty in this world, let alone eternal enemies. Everything is constantly changing driven by ambition, desire, ideals and interests.

When you can give someone what he wants, he will be willing to work for you.

But on the other hand, when you can't give someone what he wants, but your enemy can, then there is a very high probability that he will betray you.

I never expect anyone to be loyal to me forever, let alone a guy like Asta who only lives for himself.

But as long as I can continue to provide Asta with the magical knowledge and techniques he has always dreamed of, while at the same time keeping his life firmly in my hands, do you think he still has any reason to betray me?

The answer is obviously no.

You just said that Asta would betray you if he had the chance, so wouldn't it be better not to give him that chance?"

When saying this, Zuo Si's tone was full of strong confidence.

Because high-level wizards who have transformed into liches, such as Vanessa, Jeffrey, Taelantir, and Habaser, have now proved with their actual actions and attitudes that they highly recognize and are loyal to the organization, especially to him as the leader.

Zuo Si never even used the life box to threaten anyone to obey him absolutely.

All of this was easily earned simply through subtle influence and opening up a vast library of magical knowledge.

Every lich feels honored to join, serve and be effective for the organization.

In other words, personal ambitions, desires, ideals and interests will never become an obstacle to the growth and development of a force.

And if used properly, it can become a catalyst for acceleration.

What Zuo Si needs to do is to understand and keep track of what these people want, and then give them a stage to display their strengths.

"What about me? What do I look like in your eyes?" Mastermind Isadora asked with a slightly curious tone.

"You are my most important companion, ally, and family member, and one of the few people I can trust completely. I will even take a spark when the time is right so that you can become a planeswalker like me."

Zuo Si gave the answer without hesitation.

"Become a planeswalker? Me!"

Mastermind Isadora was visibly taken back.

Zuo Si nodded slightly, "Yes. If I want to kill Nicol Bolas in the War of the Spark, my strength alone is far from enough.

Even if we add ancient planeswalkers such as the Lithomancer Nahiri, Sorin Markov, and the Spirit Dragon Ugin, as well as outstanding representatives of the new generation of planeswalkers such as Jace, Liliana, Chandra, Nissa, and Gideon Jura, we can only barely improve our chances of winning.

What's more, I have never been on the same page with them.

You never know when you might become enemies because of some actions.

Since I can make an ally like Shane VII a planeswalker, why can't you and the other three Isadoras?

The only problem at the moment is that the mental states of the other three of you are clearly not very stable.

Only you, who have inherited a rational personality, can perfectly harness the power of the spark and become my most capable and trusted helper."

As these words came out of her mouth, the main brain Isadora instantly fell into a violent emotional fluctuation.

A full minute passed before she used her psychic powers to create an illusion of herself as a human. Her eyes were flickering with emotion and deep attachment. She gently stroked Zuo Si's cheek with her non-existent illusory hands, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him.

Since psychic power directly affects the brain and even the soul, it can simulate vision, hearing, smell, touch and taste that are no different from the real world.

Zuo Si could even clearly feel the softness of the other person's lips and the faint fragrance emanating from his body.

After a long while, the two slowly separated.

"Thank you, thank you for thinking of me so seriously. I swear, I will never let you down, nor will I disappoint you."

Mastermind Isadora assured with words full of affection.

At this moment, she felt that all the sacrifices she had made before were worth it.

"I look forward to that day."

After saying that, Zuo Si turned around and left the Snail Shell Ship, going straight to a floating island outside the main body of the floating city.

This is the headquarters of the weapons design and development department, and also a platform for assembling some large devices.

At this moment, in an open space, four large airships with a length of more than 350 meters and a dozen small airships of about 50 meters are being built with the intensive cooperation of constructs and corpse creatures.

Of course, some players who have relevant work experience in factories or assembly workshops have also joined in with great interest, taking charge of some areas that require professional skills.

Judging from the appearance, one third of it is almost completed, and it only needs enchantment and restart before it can be put into use.

When the person in charge, Boll, saw Zuo Si, he immediately stopped what he was doing and rushed over to report, "Sir, according to your request, we have begun to build an airship force that combines transportation and bombing.

In a few days, all these big guys will be put into use.

Although the relatively dangerous hydrogen is still in use, news has come from the physics and chemistry departments that there have been new discoveries and technological breakthroughs.

It is estimated that a cheap way to obtain helium will be invented in a few weeks at most.

At that time, just by replacing hydrogen with helium, the last defect of airship as a means of transportation can be made up.

In addition to airships, I also found time to design several propeller aircraft that were powered by electricity.

After all, the cylindrical crystals you created can store a large amount of electrical energy, directly and fundamentally solving the biggest problem of energy supply.

Coupled with the use of various magic, electric aircraft not only become a possibility, but also have much greater potential for future development than airships.

Especially the first ring of [Feather Fall Technique], which allows the machine to fly easily with only a small thrust, and easily complete high-speed maneuvers and turns that originally required complex structures.

For this purpose, I specially changed the appearance of the aircraft, making it larger and rounder, so that it can carry more people or cargo. The speed is also more than twice that of the airship, and can easily reach 1,100 kilometers per hour.

And in the future we can also try to combine magical powers to design an electric jet engine that can reach speeds of more than Mach 3.

As for weapons, I have been trying to miniaturize the electromagnetic gun, and at the same time let the chemical department research a magic bomb that is smaller in size and more powerful in explosive power.

After the two are combined, whether as an air combat weapon or as an aerial gunboat to support the ground, the efficiency is definitely far better than that of an airship.

The most important thing is that it is not as big as an airship, and it is more maneuverable in the air. It will not become a sitting duck once attacked like an airship."

After glancing at the drawings and reports provided by the chief weapons designer of the floating city, Paul, Zuo Si immediately asked without even looking up, "Compared to airships, how much more expensive is an airplane?"

"Well - the money for building a large airship can be used to build about three large transport bombers. Although the carrying capacity of the latter cannot be compared with the former."

Boll quickly gave a relatively accurate answer.

After a little thought, Zuo Si quickly approved the plan.

As a modern man, he naturally could not be unaware of the respective disadvantages and advantages of airplanes and airships.

The latter can stay in the air for a long time without wasting too much energy, and is obviously more suitable as a means of transportation or an aerial platform; the former is small in size, fast in speed, and flexible, and is more suitable for performing emergency tasks or being deployed in dangerous battlefields.

The reason why airplanes replaced airships on Earth, in addition to their own huge defects, is the world-renowned "Hindenburg" air crash.

This air crash caused many ordinary people and wealthy people to fear and distrust airships as a means of transportation, so much so that many airships under construction were immediately stopped, and many research and development in related fields lost financial support and had to be disbanded.

By the time people realized some of the advantages of airships, airplanes had already been developed for more than 80 years, and the technological accumulation was simply beyond the reach of airships.

Coupled with people's pursuit of efficiency and speed in modern society, it ultimately led to the unshakable dominant position of airplanes.

But as a planeswalker, Zuo Si obviously does not need to consider the feelings of the people.

As he has almost unlimited resources, he does not have to worry about how to allocate limited resources most reasonably like many people do.

As the saying goes, only children make choices, but adults of course want them all.

Whether it is an airship or an airplane, Zuo Si will continue to invest resources in technological research and development, iteration and upgrading without hesitation.

After cracking the creations of the Solan civilization, perhaps we will also add something unscientific but very magical, such as the "ornithopter".

"Hey, hey! I knew you would continue to support our department."

Boll seemed very happy that the plan was approved, and his face showed undisguised excitement and anticipation.

Having once worked for a government department, he could never have imagined that an aircraft research and development project that could cost tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars could be approved in just a few seconds after being submitted.

In the eyes of this young weapons expert, the floating city of Plantia led by Zuo Si is a truly scientific, efficient, clean and nearly perfect regime.

Only here will professionals like himself be respected enough and managed by a group of equally professional senior talents, without any corruption from top to bottom.

There is no need to pay attention to those shameless politicians who will do anything to win votes, and a group of ignorant people who may not be able to solve the simplest linear equation, and even think that the earth is flat, who are criticizing the latest scientific research results in certain fields.

Let professionals do professional things! This is the ideal social state for many industry elites, including Boll.

And this kind of social state can absolutely not be achieved through the bullshit "democracy" and "freedom" advocated by the mainstream values on earth.

Quite the opposite!

It requires a highly centralized government without political infighting, which is what many people consider to be a strongman regime and a dictatorship.

"Work hard. I hope that one day I can see you build a super spaceship that can travel through the vast universe and even different time and space." Zuo Si encouraged with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Paul's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked in an uncertain tone: "Does this kind of creature really exist in the world?"

Zuo Si nodded without hesitation. "Of course! As far as I know, there is an ancient planeswalker named Urza who once built a spaceship called the Clearly. Not only can it travel freely between different time and space, it also has almost unlimited energy and can withstand the test of time. It is the ultimate creation that truly combines technology and magic."

"Damn it! If only I could take a look at it!"

Paul couldn't help but curse under his breath.

You know, in another secret base, the preliminary technology obtained by reverse engineering things like dragon engines, constructs and magic heavy artillery has already made him feel eye-opening, and he is full of respect for super civilizations like Solan and Phyrexia that combine magic and technology.

Now, when I heard about such an incredible creation as the Clearly Sky spacecraft, a strong desire for knowledge immediately erupted in my subconscious.

Sadly, the Weatherlight was most likely destroyed during the final battle between Urza and Yawgmoth.

Also destroyed were ancient relics containing unknown powers, as well as the famous "Strong Energy Stone" and "Weak Energy Stone".

In the next few hours, Zuo Si visited various busy departments in the floating city, had in-depth exchanges with the persons in charge, approved some plans and research projects, and then returned to the Mage Tower in Askatla.

But he did not stay here for too long. He just went underground to take a look at the newly established Goblin Dire Wolf Legion, which had only about 500 people. Then he was teleported to the palace in Kalin Port in the south without stopping.

Compared to the deserted place when I came here, the number of guards and servants here has obviously increased a lot.

The nobility, thieves guild, and wealthy merchant class, which were completely destroyed in the Great Purge, have been replaced by a civil service system composed of scholars and spellcasters.

As expected, since Calimport has one of the largest educated populations in the entire continent of Faerun, it is not like other places where even basic rule cannot be maintained without nobles and merchants.

King Sean VII directly transformed the outer perimeter of the palace into the office of ministers and bureaucrats, so people could often be seen coming in and out, and some even suddenly appeared and disappeared out of thin air using teleportation magic.

Along with the high-speed operation of the civil service system, the army was also attacking on all sides with high morale.

Among them, Manshaka, an important stronghold along the Sea of Light to the east, as well as Areven, the most important shipbuilding center in Calimshan and a magic research center that gathers a large number of wizards and warlocks, have now returned to the rule of the empire.

Especially the latter, in order to complete the thorough suppression and cleansing, Emperor Sean VII did not hesitate to take action personally.

In a brutal battle, he killed more than thirty powerful mages and warlocks in an almost crushing manner, and at the same time uprooted the Thieves Guild that was as rampant as the one in Calim Port, and killed all the nobles, wealthy businessmen and slave owners who were unwilling to abolish slavery and tried to resist.

After finishing all this, all that remains is to follow the solution given by Zuo Si.

First, a portion of the wealth and women obtained from the confiscation of property will be used to reward the army, and the rest will be given to the churches of the God of Suffering, the God of Justice, and the God of Loyalty and Courage.

They were responsible for distributing land and arranging jobs for slaves, so that they could quickly transform into free citizens who owned property and could pay taxes to the state.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, it is really surprising that these three gods representing law, justice and kindness cooperate with an evil half-lich who restores the ancient empire.

But the liberation of millions of slaves had a very positive impact.

What's more, this time the liberation of slaves was not an impulsive and reckless act like that of Lord of the Dawn, Losander, but a real good deed with a complete plan and the provision of proper resettlement for them.

Even many holy knights and forces of the good camp came from very far away places just to provide some help within their ability.

With these people around, King Shane VII doesn't even need to spend too much manpower to maintain law and order in the occupied areas.

Before the monsters or evil forces that want to take advantage of the situation have a chance to jump out and cause trouble, they will be quickly discovered and exposed by experienced adventurers, and then be hit swiftly and powerfully.

Now, as long as they cross the Aramir Mountains from land, or launch an attack from the sea to occupy Suldofor, the second largest city in Calishite that controls the throat leading to the Steam Lake, all other towns in the southeast will give up resistance and surrender.

But this is obviously not an easy task.

Because unlike other cities in Calimshan, Sul'dofor completely broke away from the rule of Calimport long ago and has been in a semi-independent state for hundreds of years.

Although it is still nominally part of the country, its laws, regulations and administrative system are unique.

Apart from paying a tax every year, they simply ignored any orders issued by Port Calin.

The ruling group of Suldofor is even trying hard to win over the cities of Tumon and Yespek, and is flirting with several towns in the border kingdom across the strait, as if it wants to establish a new independent country.

If this plan succeeds, they will be able to control the only sea route from the Sea of ​​Glory into the Steam Lake and impose high tolls on all merchant ships passing through.

When Zuo Si walked into the main hall of the imperial palace, he happened to see King Shane VII, his appointed prime minister Shaud Tarovin, and several generals gathered around a sand table, apparently discussing the plan to attack Suldofor.

King Shane VII noticed his arrival and immediately waved for the others to leave. He then casually asked, "Why did you have time to come to my place today?"

Zuo Si responded with a smile: "I have good news for you. I have already got the spark, and it is currently being used to maintain a cross-time and space portal."

moment!

The powerful demilich's eyes flashed with a terrifying light, and he immediately asked in an impatient tone: "When can I get it?"

"Of course it's according to the agreement, when you have fulfilled your obsession and are ready to leave this world forever. In addition, don't forget to hand over the life box." Zuo Si reminded meaningfully.

"If you want the phylactery, I can give it to you now. But it will take time to unify Calimshan and Tethyr. I may be able to easily defeat those bastards who dare to steal the land of the Shan Empire, but I can't establish effective rule all at once."

Shane VII frowned and showed impatience for the first time.

Because at this moment, his desire to become a planeswalker has far surpassed his obsession with restoring the Shane Empire.

I even began to feel that this time-consuming and laborious task was a burden rather than a pleasant experience.

"There's no need to be so anxious. You have plenty of time. And I will continue to hunt more planeswalkers and seize the sparks from them. By then you may be able to choose one that suits you better." Zuo Si comforted calmly.

"I understand what you said. But the problem is that this does not reduce my desire to obtain the Spark. Forget it, it will only take a little time. I have already started to accelerate the military operation to unify the entire Calimshan."

King Shane VII had obviously calmed down by now and returned to his throne.

"accelerate?"

Zuo Si keenly grasped a key word.

Shane VII nodded slightly: "Yes. Although it is not convenient for me to use and summon a large number of undead creatures to form an army now, it does not mean that I cannot use necromancy magic or corresponding magic items.

Since the quality of those city-state soldiers who were unwilling to lay down their weapons and surrender was not very high, I decided to create something that could exert a large-scale fear effect.

At that time, as long as this item is used on the soldiers in the enemy army on the battlefield, they will naturally scatter and lose their will to fight.

My army only needs to rush over and kill or capture them, and then it will be easy to capture the city.

In this way, perhaps the plan to revive the Shane Empire can be completed ahead of schedule in a few months or so."

"I see!"

Zuo Si instantly understood the half-lich's thoughts.

You should know that although [Fear] is an insignificant magic, it can affect people with a professional level of LV5 and below, making them lose the will to fight and flee for six to twenty-four seconds.

Although it sounds like a short moment, it is very deadly to the army that needs to line up to fight.

If it were deployed on a large scale, the entire army's command system would be completely disrupted and lose its ability to control within just a few seconds.

When you see the enemy coming, your first reaction is definitely to turn around and run.

Even if an officer regained consciousness and tried to organize the personnel, he would be dispersed by the soldiers who were still under the influence of [Panic].

What's more, the defensive armies formed by most cities in the continent of Faerun do not even have professional levels, they have simply received some corresponding training.

As for fighting power and fighting will...

It can't be said to be very bad, at least it is still very powerful when dealing with annoying little monsters like goblins and kobolds.

But if they were replaced by an equal number of orcs, gnolls, hobgoblins, bugbears, ogres, and trolls, there is a high probability that they would be defeated or even annihilated in a field battle.

Therefore, a magical item that can release the effect of terror on a large scale can definitely cause quite amazing effects on the battlefield.

However, although Terror is a first-level spell, if you want it to affect hundreds or even thousands of people at once, its enchantment level must not be low, and it must be a legendary magic item at the very least.

It is estimated that the value of the materials alone would be hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and a large number of high-level spells would be required.

The most important thing is that this thing is only effective against targets at LV5 and below. As long as the level reaches LV6, they will be completely immune.

This means that apart from "bullying weaklings", he is completely useless in a battle between opponents of the same level and is a complete waste.

If it were Zuo Si, he would rather go out and use legendary spells to directly kill an army, and would never consider making such a thing.

But Sean VII, the emperor of the empire, obviously did not think so. Instead, he began to explain his ideas about this magic item, and at the same time did not forget to invite Zuo Si to come in.

With the joint efforts of the two, this "national treasure" was officially produced in just three days.

It is made into the shape of a horn. As long as someone blows it hard, it will immediately inflict fear [terror] on all creatures within a few kilometers ahead that hear it. And it can be blown once every six seconds on average, making it a magical anti-military weapon.

If the other party is unable to mobilize an elite army with all professional levels reaching LV6, then you can simply raise the white flag and surrender.

Finally, the horn was handed over to a general with LV10 fighter level and LV5 weapon master level.

Just one day later, he led a fleet from Calimport and headed straight for Suldofor.

Since the latter itself had an extremely developed shipbuilding industry, it immediately sent out a larger fleet to meet the enemy after receiving the intelligence.

The two sides finally met in the shallow sea area north of Sasot Island and launched a decisive battle.

But the process was completely different from what many people imagined, where the two sides were evenly matched, but rather one-sided.

Suldofor's proud fleet didn't even last ten minutes before it began to collapse completely.

No! It shouldn't be called a rout! It's a complete collapse!

As the fatal horn sounded over the sea, the sailors and soldiers on the deck of the Suldorfer fleet began to go crazy. They ran out of the cabins frantically as if they had seen something horrifying, and jumped into the rough sea one after another.

No matter how the captains and officers of higher professional ranks tried to stop them, it was useless.

Some wizards and priests on board realized that this was the effect of magic, and immediately tried to dispel it with magic and divine arts such as dispel magic and calm the mind.

But unfortunately, the number of spells they cast every day is a drop in the bucket compared to the horn that can affect thousands of people at once.

After a while, all his energy was used up, and he could only watch in despair as wave after wave of his own people jumped into the sea like dumplings, completely irrational.

By the time the Shane Empire's fleet rushed over, there were only a few people left on their own ship.

As a result, after a brief resistance, they were quickly occupied and captured.

Some of the smarter ones even raised the white flag and announced their surrender early.

Just like that, a great naval battle that attracted the attention of all forces in the Sea of Glory and the Steam Lake ended in a nearly child's play manner.

Shane VII's fleet easily defeated Suldofor's proud fleet with almost no losses of its own.

Not only is there no loss!

His generals also more than doubled the size of their own army by capturing a large number of enemy ships.

As for the ordinary soldiers who jumped into the sea out of fear, they were quickly rescued by the imperial generals and temporarily held as prisoners at the bottom of the cabin.

After the capture of Suldofor, most of them will be disbanded, reorganized, and eventually absorbed into the army of the Shane Empire.

Zuo Si witnessed the entire "tragic" battle, and could not help but sighed while holding his forehead: "It really is a weapon for bullying weaklings.

A total of twenty large warships, forty medium-sized ships and more than a hundred small ships, plus thousands of skilled sailors and soldiers, this is almost all of Suldorfer's water force and more than 80% of the army.

In addition, it is impossible for the other party to learn about the destruction of the fleet in such a short period of time...

If General Taylor had just used his brain a little, stuffed his soldiers onto the ship that originally belonged to Suldorfer, disguised it as a victory and launched a surprise attack, the capture of Suldorfer would be a sure thing.

It seems that the unification of the Calishite region has entered the final countdown.

After the south is pacified, King Shane VII can march north to capture Mannon, and then he can start to deal with Tethyr, which is in civil strife.

However, Wang Quan claimed that this thing was really useful. Such a large-scale military conquest did not attract any interference from external forces. "
