"Isabella?! You're here! It's great that you're all fine. "
Rorschach's voice was filled with pleasant surprise. Although he guessed that everyone had been through a lot and wouldn't die in such a simple situation, he was still happy to see that his friends and family were all fine.
However, Isabella's expression was rather subtle. She remained silent for a moment, then silently nodded.
"It's great that you're all fine."
Rorschach was shocked at this moment.
Isabella was actually so normal? Did she eat something wrong?
But now obviously wasn't the time to be thinking about such a messy matter.
"Su Nanna? You're at the flagship? Tell them to stop attacking. She's very troublesome. Don't awaken her consciousness … "
The giant monster's attention was obviously not on them right now. If the pain made her serious, it would be even more difficult to deal with.
"Continue attacking! In the name of Princess Bair, I request that all Bair subordinates attack with all their strength, and bear all responsibility … Rorschach, you promised me. "
Isabella tugged on Rorschach's sleeve with a wronged and innocent expression. She was like a little girl who had been cheated of a lollipop, or a girlfriend who had been stood up on her Valentine's Day date.
However, her words gave Rorschach quite a headache.
He instantly understood what Seviala meant. Since the Heart of the Ocean was what had caused this sea monster to become like this, then considering the fact that God Equipment were generally indestructible, wouldn't it be possible to retrieve the Heart of the Ocean by killing this sea monster?
Theoretically speaking, the probability of this happening was quite high, so high that it was tempting, and so high that it made people feel like if they missed this opportunity … This sea monster had obviously gone to the deep sea, and it would be impossible to find her again. And even if they did find her, what were the chances of gathering an entire fleet and having enough people to kill her?
Rorschach more or less understood as he thought about this.
Seviala definitely wouldn't miss this opportunity to turn things around, and the God Equipment Heart of the Ocean was also worth the price. Even if this fleet and the dragon knight squadron were all lost, the consequences would still be much less than losing the God Equipment Heart.
Furthermore, he had promised that if the conditions permitted, he would help her retrieve the Divine Artifact …
"… I thought that it would be decades later, or that I would never have the chance to do so in this lifetime …"
Rorschach really hesitated. Although it wasn't a good thing to break a promise, who would really want to fight to the death against such an unconventional opponent?
"Think about it. If that little secret gets out, you'll be in trouble too. This is a chance to solve the problem once and for all. As long as we can deal with her, we can call it quits. "
There was a hint of a threat in his words. The little secret was "that home run you threw away". If word got out, Rorschach would be in a lot of trouble.
"What little secret?"
Isabella, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly asked in an unusually calm tone.
"Oh, that's because I wasn't careful before …"
"Rorschach, don't hesitate anymore. If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone. This responsibility is too heavy for both of us. It might affect our lives!"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't make it sound so exaggerated. It's your life, not mine. Don't use 'we' to confuse the concept."
"… Are you trying to be irresponsible? Are you even a man!? "
"Tsk, am I a man or not? Why don't you try? "
Their argument was becoming more and more like a child's argument. However, the onlookers' expressions were becoming more and more subtle.
But this delay was equivalent to helping everyone make a decision.
* Boom! *
* Boom! *
A series of violent explosions lit up the sky with fireworks.
Bair's airships and dragon knights were no noobs. They naturally unhesitatingly attacked when they saw that this gigantic female sea giant was fighting against the humans.
The cannon fire of a major country's airships was a true war machine. A low-quality war puppet like the Wood God couldn't compare to it. The dragon breath of an adult dragon, as well as the wave attacks that the dragon knights had been training in for a long time, was also not something that a newborn false dragon like Ariel could compare to.
Bair's airships displayed astonishing combat prowess with round after round of cannon fire and dragon breath attacks.
The airships took turns bombarding the enemy from a safe distance away. The dragon knights harassed and ambushed the enemy's surroundings. Meanwhile, on some airships, the mage towers had all been activated. High-circle magic energy was gathering, and magical support was on the way.
"Your Highness!"
Rorschach turned around and saw a middle-aged dragon knight with a full beard looking at him with delight … or rather, the young princess behind him.
"Head Knight Mieren?"
The princess didn't even try to hide her delight in her tone.
At this moment, Rorschach knew that everything was already decided. The situation was no longer under his control.
"Attack her! Give the order that we must kill her here at all costs! "
Seviala didn't say much, nor did she explain the reason. As the ruler, she directly gave the order.
Putting aside whether or not the princess had the right to command the dragon knights, since this order came from the Virtuous Princess, the second generation of the royal family who was closest to the throne, Mieren wouldn't be stupid enough to refuse as long as he hadn't already chosen a side.
And so, the order was quickly transmitted through an unknown channel.
The next moment, countless sparks exploded. The airships' cannon fire doubled in frequency. The dragon knights began to engage in close combat, and the gliding dragons began to charge from the clouds.
The airships also began to adjust their positions. A few airships suddenly took off and occupied the sky. The gunships began to spread out horizontally. A few airships quietly sank into the sea. The few airships with strong magic waves stayed in the middle of the sea.
Compared to earlier, Bair's airships had entered a true phase of war.
This was the first time that Rorschach had seen a real Aishi army fight. He was a little confused. However, his ears were filled with the sound of explosions. High-circle magic waves continuously entered his ears like thousands of firecrackers.
It was chaotic and noisy, yet it had its own order. Rorschach was somewhat confused. Once a real army began to move, the scale of a battle would be completely different from a small group battle.
"Ahhhhhh!"
But after an extremely terrifying scream (or perhaps a bestial roar), the entire sea began to shake violently.
Meanwhile, the huge sea giant that was being attacked changed yet again.
Below her waist, where the wind was blowing from her tentacles, two pairs of soul-yellow eyes appeared. Then, a huge mouth full of sharp teeth appeared. It was as if a beast's head had appeared on her lower body.
And when the beast's head became clearer, the confused humanoid face regained its clarity.
It was as if a turbid soul had suddenly been split into two halves. One half was human, and the other half was bestial.
While the beast's lower body roared wildly, the human upper body viciously glared at Seviala … or rather, Rorschach who was in front of her.
"Roland!"
