The massive Legendary Ship re-entered the water, causing the lake’s water level to rapidly rise, stirring up huge waves.
Their route took them from the turbulent currents at the lake’s bottom to the edge of the Zenith City’s protective spirit array.
Through the spirit array.
They could leave the underground range, ascend to the river’s surface, and reach the land.
But.
Baiyu was now thinking about the sea giants in the water.
It was obvious they weren’t here for sightseeing.
The foreign race even made a throat-slitting gesture, clearly intending to kill off all escaping survivors.
Although the Legendary Ship was powerful.
Baiyu couldn’t unleash its might, and even traveling was a struggle.
"If Cai were here, it would be perfect. With her strength and understanding of the Legendary Ship, she could safely escape and perhaps even fire a few shots."
In the control room.
Baiyu appeared a bit frustrated.
Erza’s pupils glowed faintly green as she listened to him ntion Cai, her lips curling slightly: "We didn’t detect the giant humanoid life forms you ntioned, perhaps they’ve left.
We are now outside the spirit array’s range, and regardless, we must ascend and erge from the water surface."
"How much fuel reserve do we have?"
Baiyu inquired.
"Thirty tons of high-quality spirit crystal, sufficient for normal operation of all ship weapons, capable of sustained combat for ten days."
"A hundred tons of magic energy fuel, providing abundant propulsion power."
"It will take at most an hour to reach Linjiang City from here, the machinery remains intact, with no signs of damage."
Erza responded.
It seems the Qiong Family maintained it well, with considerable effort.
Baiyu nodded: "Then head directly to Linjiang City while the giant is absent."
Having a profound impression of the giant’s power, he absolutely did not want to face such terrifying creatures again.
"Understood."
After Erza selected the course, the entire side of the Legendary Ship began moving all its massive chanical paddles, slicing through the water with huge waves.
Soon.
Like a blue whale surfacing, the Legendary Ship erged from the sea, rows of steam vents on its top spewing out white vapor mist.
The blue sky erged.
A sun was rising on the distant horizon, gentle winds blowing, birds scattering.
This was a sight unseen in the underground world of Zenith City.
Baiyu stood on the deck, feeling a bit wistful.
If not for the exotic beasts and other races, life in this world would be beautiful, with everyone practicing martial arts, living longer, and free from illnesses.
It’s simply paradise!
But unfortunately.
"Zenith City is destroyed."
Beside him.
ng Siyu bit her lip lightly.
The ground was billowing with smoke.
Flas were still burning, occasionally beasts moving through the city buildings.
The bridges surrounding Zenith City were all blasted apart.
Shouts of the crowd rose continuously.
Army, martial artists, extraordinary individuals.
Spirit techniques, machinery, thermal weapons...
The scene was chaotic, with battles and deaths occurring everywhere, turning the once-prosperous city into a bloody purgatory.
ng Siyu looked towards her ho’s direction.
There, it was completely obliterated.
A few massive ground-back ferocious oxen lay dead on the buildings, their blood dyeing the ground red.
"Even watching won’t change anything.
Getting to Linjiang City from here only takes a few dozen minutes, I need to accelerate the ship."
Erza, standing before the mast on the deck, turned her head and spoke.
"Accelerate."
With Baiyu’s command, the machinery within the Legendary Ship roared louder, white air waves continuously spreading, forming clouds in the sky.
At that mont.
Underneath Zenith City, a column of fire suddenly burst forth, vaporizing large volus of seawater.
A massive figure crawled out from the ground, covered in blazing flas.
Fla Giant!
The opponent was over two hundred ters tall, with long fiery hair, glaring underground.
"Sakura!"
A sky-reaching roar.
A shower of petals burst out from the pit opened by the Fla Giant, a petite figure in a Divine Robe appeared mid-air, with giant wings made of cherry blossoms behind.
The Sakura Bishop from the Eternal Church!
"It’s actually the Divine Descent Technique, it seems the Eternal Church is going all out," Erza remarked in surprise.
The Divine Descent Technique.
This is a high-level spirit technique.
It’s akin to praying for power from a deity, similar to heretics and cults praying to the Evil God.
But praying to a legitimate deity is not as dangerous, nor does it involve various sinister rites.
So generally, core mbers of churches would know this technique.
This epic battle had just begun but already drew all of Zenith City’s attention, with countless alien races rallying around the Fla Giant, while martial artists from Zenith City began gathering around the Sakura Bishop.
The fluctuations of spirit techniques erupted continuously.
Baiyu only saw this scene before the Legendary Ship quickly moved, with the surrounding scenery receding rapidly, the iron beast speeding through the clouds towards Linjiang City.
...
Linjiang City.
After the turmoil caused by Kazz last ti, the city was being rebuilt intensively,
The areas destroyed in battle were rebuilt successfully in just a few months.
And even more prosperous than before.
Plus Baiyu recently broke the comrcial trade monopoly of the Linjiang Shelter, rapidly boosting trade developnt, giving it the faint significance of becoming the second largest city in the Maple Leaf County.
"Baiyu not only apprenticed under a professor but also managed to obtain a noble title, quite impressive."
"Qin Shou has also been doing well in the army, even starting to condense True Martial Intent, this kid was too mischievous before, but after gaining discipline in the army, his cultivation has progressed rapidly."
Pang Fei remarked with a smile while sipping tea and looking at the information on the table.
The descendants entrusted by old acquaintances.
One entering the Martial Arts School, likely on an academic - honorable route.
The other joining the military, although dangerous, can earn military rits and has a promising future.
The future of both was on the right track.
Thinking of this.
Pang Fei sat on his leather office chair and couldn’t help but smile again.
Tang Xiaoyu had long beco accustod to this.
She was now the bishop of the Linjiang District and would often co over to discuss the city’s security and managent issues with Pang Fei.
"Hmm..."
At this mont.
Tang Xiaoyu slightly furrowed her brow, pulling out from her bosom a Holy Emblem she got from the Eternal Church.
It was an iron pendant of gears intertwined with smoke.
The pendant was slowly glowing.
"The Holy Emblem is glowing?
I rember the church’s Holy Emblems not only have attack functions but also ergency contact ones?
Could it be that the Eternal Church has sothing urgent to summon you?"
Pang Fei speculated.
Tang Xiaoyu shook her head, "The church wouldn’t contact us this way. Using the Holy Emblem ans there’s an extrely urgent situation at the Eternal Church!"
Their expressions turned serious.
The Eternal Church resides in the heart of Zenith City, with countless sealing objects and powerful beings, how could there be a problem?
"By the way, did you see any news about Zenith City this morning?"
Pang Fei asked.
Tang Xiaoyu shook her head.
The two hurriedly logged onto the computer, but Zenith City’s network was completely inaccessible!
Bam!
Just then, the office door swung open.
A soldier from the Ard Departnt rushed in, drenched in sweat, panting heavily: "Sir, ex... exotic beasts are attacking the city!!"
