Space was twisting strangely.
Black Gold Mage Robe's previous spells were all easily cast. Their power far surpassed that of Mages with all four elements maxed out.
This time, he had the starting gesture of a spell, as well as the charging and accumulation. It was clear that his next spell would be a killing move that would truly obliterate the Sea King Skeleton!
Not far away, the Great General stood in an area where there was no water.
He made the ocean current evaporate, meaning the Sea King Skeleton could no longer escape with the current.
When he saw Black Gold Mage Robe's spell, he forced a smile. He could finally heave a sigh of relief!
So what if it was the strongest Sea Demon Monarch? It would still die under the city walls!
"Huhuhuhuhu ~!"
The Great General was about three kilometers behind the Sea King Skeleton. For some reason, he heard a strange sound from further away in the ocean.
He turned around in confusion, but almost fainted when he saw the scene in front of him!
A claw.
It was formed by the entire ocean. It was as if the ocean had a life of its own and reached out a claw!
The Great General did not notice when it appeared.
The claw was hanging above the heads of the three Thrones. More terrifyingly, the three Thrones did not notice it at all!
Was it an illusion?
It was not an illusion.
The ocean had truly turned into a claw. It was boundless, as vast as the sky!
It slammed down.
The world fell silent. In the silence caused by the boundless sound, the three Thrones were completely turned into red powder!
The Great General looked at the shattered sky.
He was almost scared out of his wits.
Because the God of Death had just brushed past him.
As a human expert with all four elements maxed out, the claw did not even spare him a glance!
Its target was the three Thrones...
......
The sound was so loud that people were not even qualified to hear it.
The shattering of eardrums was not due to some unbearable sound in one's head. Instead, it was due to the silence of one's head exploding!
A moment ago, the humans were boiling with passion. They were furiously slaying the Sea King Skeleton under the lead of the three Thrones. How heroic! But now, everyone was scared out of their wits by the endless claw!
After an unknown period of time, people finally regained their sense of hearing.
The ocean currents were recovering, and so was the shattered sky. Everyone was slowly returning to the real world from the Abyss of Death. Only the three Saint-level Mages could no longer be seen.
They were killed.
They represented the strongest of the human race, and were only one step away from being able to cast Forbidden Spells.
They were reduced to red powder. The powerful beings of Faith had died tragically in front of everyone!!
What was it?
It could instantly obliterate three Thrones!
What exactly were humans? They existed in this world and cultivated to the peak, but in the end, they were still so weak!
"Di … Monarch." Mofan stood there as if he could feel the fear in the deepest part of his soul. The Demon Blood in his body started to boil in self-defense.
However, the Devil Blood gradually cooled down.
That was because the mastermind behind the ocean had left. It seemed that their goal had been achieved.
As for the remaining people, it didn't care about them at all.
"Bro … Brother Fan Fan." Zhang Xiaohou's legs turned to jelly as he slumped to the ground.
Jiang Shaoxu and Ling Ling were the same. They couldn't stand still due to the lingering fear.
Countless people lost their strength, lost control of their bowels, and fainted.
The superiors and General-level Mages were dumbfounded. Their faces were filled with extreme fear.
…
The waves of the ocean began to rise again. The wind in the sky began to howl.
However, no one spoke for a long time. The Monstrous Claw had not only crushed the three Thrones, it had also crushed everyone's souls.
It was as if all resistance was meaningless!
"It's been waiting, it's been waiting."
"The Sea King Skeleton was just a probing trap."
"It lured out the Thrones among us humans and killed them, causing us to lose our strongest trump card."
The pale-faced Chief Military Strategist was stunned on the spot, mumbling to himself in a daze.
The assassination plan didn't kill them, but three Thrones from the Magic City had died. All three of them had a high chance of becoming Forbidden Spell Mages!
In the end, they had underestimated the intelligence of the sea monsters, and their patience and strength!
After losing the three Thrones, the battle that followed was going to be even more difficult … the scariest thing was, they had no idea what the mastermind behind the ocean was.
They didn't have any information about it. They only knew that it could control the ocean and turn it into a claw.
Or perhaps the Monstrous Claw was actually the creature itself?
The creature had never shown up since the beginning. No matter how many times the humans tried to probe it, even when they launched the plan to repel the Sea King Skeleton, it never showed up.
When the humans sent out the three Thrones, its claw had arrived. It was no coincidence. The creature had been hiding behind the Sea King Skeleton all along, like a hunter. Even when the rare birds in the wild stepped into the trap, it would not close the net until it found the most valuable prey …
"Commander, we've lost," the pale-faced Chief Military Strategist was utterly lost. He called the commander's communicator.
The other side remained silent.
"We've sacrificed three Thrones. We didn't get any information about its strength, appearance, or species," the pale-faced Chief Military Strategist continued. His heart was as cold as ice.
The commander's initial order was to hold their ground.
However, he could make a decision based on the situation.
Even so, as the Chief Military Strategist, he had still underestimated the sea monsters, resulting in the tragedy.
Next, how were they going to rally their morale? What kind of awareness did they have to show in order to regain the courage to fight against the sea monsters?
"At least we've confirmed that the East China Sea has an Emperor," General Hua said in a deep voice.
The Chief Military Strategist wore a bitter expression when he heard the words.
They had paid such a great price, only to receive such a laughable piece of information.
It was a complete failure!
…
…
Mofan, Jiang Shaoxu, and Ling Ling somehow made it back to the city.
They did not say a word. They sat quietly in the hall, feeling like everything was surreal.
The skyscrapers, the busy streets, and the flourishing flowers … everything felt surreal, as they clearly knew that everything had been destroyed in the blink of an eye after witnessing the scene.
"As a matter of fact, we don't have to be so depressed. The sea monsters have been hiding and disappearing after the first attack because they are afraid of the Forbidden Mages among us humans," Ling Ling said.
Mofan twisted his lips.
That was the truth.
There were Forbidden Mages among the humans, but the Forbidden Mages did not show up during the calamity because they were afraid of the Sea Monster Emperors.
The Forbidden Mages could not afford to act recklessly before knowing the number of the Sea Monster Emperors, their species, and their strength.
Just like today …
If the Forbidden Mages were the ones attacking, he would die too.
The Forbidden Mages could not take on the Sea Monster Emperors on their own, either.
Once the mastermind behind the sea monsters lured the Forbidden Mages out, even if they could not kill the Forbidden Mages with a single attack, they would surely expose themselves just to eliminate the precious Forbidden Mages of the humans.
