On the Sea of Storms, the fleet of the Hailuga Kingdom, blessed by the power of the sea, and the fleet of the Hollyma Kingdom, blessed by the power of the Master of the Night, jointly launched a war against the Sumerian Freedom Alliance. They raided the King's Harbor, an important port of the Sumerian Freedom Alliance. They destroyed the Sumerian Kingdom's main fleet, the Piercing Fleet, and occupied the King's Harbor. Then, with the advantage of the sea, they continued to send troops to the Sumerian Freedom Alliance.
The two countries attempted to force the Sumerian Freedom Alliance to surrender and sign a treaty on sharing the magic crystal system and border trade. However, the Sumerian Freedom Alliance strongly resisted.
The war spread to the entire western part of the Sumerian Freedom Alliance. Even the Royal Knights and the Son of God of the Hailuga Kingdom personally arrived in the Sumerian Kingdom. The Pope of the Church of the Dark Night and the Dark Night Sacrificial Group of the Hollyma Kingdom also entered the Sumerian Kingdom in large war airships.
The Pope and the Son of God, who could directly borrow and carry the power of the true gods, posed a great threat to the Sumerian Kingdom.
The three demigods, the Pope of the Church of the Dark Night, and the Son of God of Storm, who was carrying the alchemy sea monster Hellem, left by the Lord of Storm, fought fiercely in the sky. Three giant divine shadows and two existences that borrowed the power of the true gods fought fiercely in the sky above the Urabell Province.
The clouds were constantly torn apart and gathered. The divine spells and the divine light were more dazzling than the sun. The light refracted so that the earth could see all kinds of colors flowing. The air seemed to be broken, refracting colorful light.
The giant alchemy monster Hellem floated in the sky like a small island. Its long tentacles wriggled, and beams of scorching light pierced through the sky toward the horizon. Its eyes could evaporate everything in sight.
The airships and battle airships in the sky chased and fought with each other. During the battle, they crashed one after another, turning into fireballs and falling to the ground. The whole sky was dyed red.
No one had ever seen such a tragic war before. The intensity and scope of the war were already close to the limits of the human world. The huge shadows in the sky seemed to be able to easily destroy cities and the earth with a single move. No one could imagine what would happen if their power fell on the earth.
The normal people curled up in the cities and houses, shivering. Children and women hid in churches and underground caverns, crying. The Extraordinary individuals who were usually so powerful that they could not even look at them directly were as weak as dolls in this battle. They died and vanished in large numbers.
"It's like we're seeing the end of the world!"
"The sky is wailing; the earth is quaking; the air is like boiling water; flames and black smoke are everywhere. Airships and combat airships keep falling like flies. The entire world is like a boat in a storm. Everyone's life might be devoured by the storm at any moment."
Joshua, the scholar who recorded the war, wrote in his diary.
Both sides suffered heavy losses in this war. The Sumerian Freedom Alliance had stopped the advancing forces of the Hailuga Kingdom and the Hollyma Kingdom and gained a certain advantage. But the war was still going on. At this point, the Hailuga Kingdom, the Hollyma Kingdom, the Stormwind Church, and the Church of the Dark Night could not retreat easily.
"Maybe we can form an alliance and cut off their retreat route from the sea. They will be defeated without the support of the sea!" Frank said in the conference hall of Niyah City. His first idea was that they would be defeated and unable to support the sea.
"Whom should we ally with? The Church of Light and the Faith of the Sun don't seem to care about us at all. They haven't attacked us yet, which is already the best outcome! "Alva expressed his opinion.
Wilbert said, "We don't necessarily need to form an alliance. We just need the enemies of the Hailuga Kingdom and the Hollyma Kingdom to attack them!"
"The Sean City-State Alliance, the Kingdom of Rosa d 'Oro, the Kingdom of Mara, and the Hailuga Kingdom have been enemies for generations. During the sea power war between the Maritime Alliance and the Mermaid Kingdom, it was because of Jonathan Brown's betrayal that the three countries of the Maritime Alliance suffered heavy losses and lost their hegemony over the sea.
"The Kingdom of Rosa d 'Oro and the Hollyma Kingdom also had many border conflicts and territorial disputes.
"As long as we let them put pressure on the Hailuga Kingdom and the Hollyma Kingdom, I believe that the declining Maritime Alliance will want to regain its hegemony over the sea again."
Frank slammed the table and said, "That's right. But at the same time, the plan to win over allies must be carried out at the same time. The Sun Elf Kingdom, the Silver Moon Kingdom, and the Mage Kingdom on the Yala Continent have been dormant for too long. They also want to expand and strengthen their influence on the sea."
Wilbert tightened the collar of his suit, frowned, and said, "The Sun Elf Kingdom and the Silver Moon Kingdom on the Yala Continent are very closed kingdoms. The only one that wants to expand is probably the Mage Kingdom. Will they form an alliance with us?"
Frank nodded and said, "Of course, we don't need them to help us send troops to war. We just need them to support us in carrying out the Magic Crystal Plan. At the same time, they will benefit greatly from trade, the construction of the Magic Crystal System, and their influence on the sea. They won't give up this opportunity."
"In this way, we can open up the sea route to the Yala Continent and put pressure on the original Mermaid Kingdom Alliance from the Bazaar Sea and the Eastern Ocean."
Alva nodded, but then he said hesitantly, "In this case, the countries involved in this war will not only involve the three of us, but also the three continents and most of the powerful countries. If we keep fighting like this …"
"Things are likely to go beyond our expectations and control," Alva said.
The three of them suddenly fell silent. At last, Frank made the decision. "As long as there is change, it will definitely affect the interests of others, which will lead to conflicts and even wars."
"But we can't not change just because we are afraid of wars and conflicts. Civilization is always moving forward. Change is necessary, and progress is also necessary. Civilization is like a ship, and everyone is on the ship, moving forward with it. When the ship decays and becomes old, we have to stop and find a place to build a new ship, instead of sticking to the old ideas and muddling along."
"Ah! It can still last for a while, it hasn't completely decayed yet! "
"Repair it, it can still last for a few days!"
"Dismantle this ship, each of us holding a piece of wood, and we can still float for a few days!"
Frank said this as if he was joking. With the fall of Eric, Frank had also changed. He was no longer the dreamer he used to be, but was full of practical and wise demeanor.
"If we do that, we will sink into the sea together with this rotten ship," Alva said.
