Chapter 1059 Terrifying to Near Miracle
Not only the Kingdom of Kodi, but also the surrounding countries have the same goal.
Inside these countries, the nobles do not want to see the rise of commoners, and they prefer to control the manufacturing method of the sage's stone and the use of new alchemy tools in their own hands.
The Sage's Stone will make the power mastered by the superhumans larger and more convenient. It can also double the military power of their kingdom and make the strong stronger.
But now with the rise of the Locke Kingdom, the civilians in their country have also seen hope, and they are also eager to change their lives, change their situation, and gain upward passage like the civilians in the Locke Kingdom.
Although the trend is not very obvious now, if the Kingdom of Locke becomes stronger and stronger, they will not be able to suppress this trend and become the source of their domestic instability.
So under the leadership of the Kingdom of Kodi, these countries quickly reached a consensus.
In fact, after these countries discovered the existence of the sage's stone, they discovered the potential and horror of this kind of thing. It would threaten their original ruling class, and mud legs and mortals could also use the power of gods. How can this be.
And this power is still in the hands of a remote Lock Kingdom.
They were ready to start when the Kingdom of Locke was still developing, but they did not expect that the Kingdom of Locke would develop so rapidly.
It's like flying into the sky, and they can't stop it. Almost every once in a while, they can receive reports of new changes in the Locke Kingdom.
The Cody Kingdom knew that it would be too late if they didn't make a move, so they decisively organized this joint army.
"This power must be in our hands, not let those filthy commoners defile the power of God!"
"It's not the power to taint the gods, they control the power of demons."
"We must punish Held and the demon's apostles who use the power of the devil, and let these blasphemers be annihilated by the power of the gods."
Under the mobilization of the Cody Kingdom, the Sage Association and Held were all named as demons by the major churches, and they became the objects that must be killed.
This time, unlike the first defensive counterattack, the Cody Kingdom brought in all the countries in all directions of the Locke Kingdom, so at the moment the war started, they were in a state of being surrounded by enemies from all sides.
"Boom!!"
Fighting airships flew above the sky, and the harsh sound echoed in the various border cities of the Locke Kingdom, covering the sky and casting huge shadows on the ground, causing panic in the eyes of the civilians.
Alchemy bombs and alchemy cannons were launched from the air, and in a very short period of time, these cities with weak defenses turned into a sea of fire.
These countries did not seem to have any intention of grabbing trophies or capturing prisoners. They directly bombed the entire city destructively, and then moved towards the core hinterland.
Soon, the kingdom of Locke was filled with flames and turned into a purgatory.
Every city that was invaded by the coalition army was turned into a rubble, and the streets and houses were set on fire, which took more than ten days to completely extinguish.
Thick black smoke and the smell of burning filled the air, and the smell of burnt human flesh could be smelled even from a kilometer away.
Screams, wailing, and cries for help sounded in these cities. This was a massacre of the weak.
The Kingdom of Locke didn't seem to think that the other party would fight in this way, and suddenly fell into the dilemma of fighting on all sides.
Lanchester and Herder knew that with the current strength of the Locke Kingdom, they could not fight on all sides, so they decisively ordered all civilians and troops to retreat and concentrate their living forces.
At this time, everyone in the Locke Kingdom knew that this was a war of life and death.
A month later, the coalition forces occupied nearly half of the land of the Locke Kingdom, and completed the confluence in Arika City, fifty miles away from the capital of Karon.
The main force and most of the civilians of the Locke Kingdom were behind Arika City. They could be said to have fled here all the way with the speed of life and death. At this time, they were exhausted and could not continue to escape.
So Lanchester and Held decided to block Arica City and let the civilians leave first.
The battle was almost imminent, and the combat airships headed by the Kingdom of Cody rushed into the sky, and thousands of combat airships covered the sky and blocked the entire sky.
Before they got close to Arica City, they saw the alchemy cannons and bombs shot out from above.
On the ground, clerics from various countries took action. Some of them flew in the sky, and some began to chant incantations to the gods on the ground.
"Divine Art·Light of Destruction!"
"Great God of War, I pray to you, calling your holy name, please grant me the power to destroy the enemy in front of me!"
The huge combination of divine arts followed these clerics, and the hands of the priests holding their staffs and their hands high slammed down towards Arika City.
The light of various alchemy cannons and the combination of powerful divine arts were intertwined, and the sun in the sky was blocked in an instant.
If these extraordinary powers fall in the city of Arika, I am afraid that the entire city will be wiped out in an instant.
At this moment, a red intense light suddenly lit up on the wall of Arika City, followed by the second and third lights.
In the blink of an eye, these red lights turned into hundreds.
What is even more bizarre is that although these red rays of light are emitted from different places, they converge in the air and become a red plasma-like beam of light with a diameter of hundreds of meters.
At this moment, the surrounding air seemed to be ignited, making a violent babbling sound, and it was also accompanied by a terrifying red electric light.
The red plasma column was faster than those alchemy cannons and divine arts, and before they approached, it was unstoppable and rushed to these forces.
In just a moment of effort, both alchemy cannons and divine arts were annihilated in an instant.
The plasma column continued to move forward without any hindrance. Whether it was the thousands of combat airships in the sky or the priests in the sky, before such a terrifying speed, it was too late to react, and they were instantly evaporated.
A vacuum appeared in the place where the red plasma column passed, as if it had been ploughed by something. Except for the more than ten combat airships that were not affected by the edge, there was nothing in the sky.
The entire battlefield was dead silent, not only the coalition army's mind was blank, but even the people of the Locke Kingdom at the head of Arika City were dumbfounded.
Except for Herder's indifferent expression, who seemed to have known the power of this alchemy cannon for a long time, everyone else, including King Lanchester and Auston, did not expect this light of death to be so terrifying. It was almost miraculous with just one attack of power.
