Magic Underachiever

In order to dispel Daliang's suspicion, Eliza pretended to be relaxed and explained: "That's because Scarab Company believes that we don't need to pay anything extra for what originally belongs to me. And things have not yet reached the point where we need to use the interests of other places for exchange.

Master Liang... Don't think too highly of the capital in your hands. Being too greedy will cost you a price."

Daliang responded with a smile: "Yes, being too greedy will cost you a price. I give this sentence back to you, and you will soon understand its meaning. I also welcome you to tell me the real situation of Scarab Company...

Now, let's see how the army of Scarab Company attacked this ancient ruins."

Daliang did not believe Eliza's explanation, but he could not guess what happened inside the Star Alliance Scarab Company. In order not to arouse Eliza's suspicion, he did not continue to ask, but turned his attention back to the sea where the war was about to break out.

The troops mobilized by Scarab Company are basically in place. The routine bombardment stopped, and the sea entered a tense silence.

The ammunition for the naval guns was fully replenished, and hundreds of Silver Wings were on the deck of the ship for the final inspection by the ground crew. The airship entered the bombing route, and the door of the bomb bay was already opened.

Among the many ships, three battleships were much larger than the other ships, and three triple-mounted 305mm guns were pointed sideways at the tiny icebergs in the distance.

Keppel, who had transferred his command position to one of the battleships, stood in the bridge surrounded by many naval officers. He observed the situation on the iceberg with a telescope, and said to his subordinates: "The enemy did not send more troops to defend the iceberg. It is estimated that they can also realize that the combat environment here is very unfavorable to them, so they do not intend to block us on this side of the portal.

Notify them... Don't underestimate the enemy because the battle starts smoothly.

This time our opponent is a hell army left over from the ancient magic era. We don't know the number and specific military strength of this army, but we can be sure that there are ultimate creatures and demons in it.

The battle behind will definitely be very cruel.

But the warriors don't have to worry too much. The supremes of the Scarab Company have sent many 13th-level strongmen for this war, and several punishers with strength reaching 14th level have also come.

We don't need to participate in high-end battles. Our mission is to eliminate all evil creatures on the other side of the portal.

Start the attack!"

Keppel did not make an impassioned pre-war mobilization. In his opinion, after more than two thousand years, the troops of this hell army that can be retained to the present must be few. The difficulty of this battle is how to attack the portal and gain a foothold on the other side. Now the supremes of the head office have sent all the punishers to support. Even if the opponent is a demon, they have enough strength to rush in with this army.

This is a battle without suspense.

Keppel looked at his pocket watch: This battle will end within the time specified by Lady Eliza.

On the deck outside the bridge. Silver Wings took off one after another in small teams; torpedoes drew water lines on the sea and rushed towards the iceberg in front.

On the airship, tons of heavy bombs were thrown down one after another.

Then the hull shook, and a deafening sound rushed into the bridge. The three battleships completed a salvo in ten seconds, and then the entire sea surface was filled with gunfire.

Almost instantly, the small iceberg was submerged by the huge waves.

The battleships and airships launched a saturation attack on the iceberg, and the Silver Wings approached the airspace where the iceberg was located from outside the trajectory. They formed an encirclement at an altitude of about 400 meters, and the alchemical rifles were aimed at the bottom to accumulate energy. After the bombing, Silver Wing was responsible for clearing the remaining enemies on the sea, and also sniping those who tried to come through the portal.

However, the thick smoke and steam produced by the explosion had completely wrapped the iceberg inside, and it was impossible to see what was inside from the outside. But under such intensive bombing, the Silver Wings did not think that the iceberg would still exist. As long as there was no iceberg, there would not be much for the Silver Wings to do.

In order to give the enemy enough deterrence, Kaiper required all firepower to bombard the iceberg continuously for half an hour, even if the iceberg had been blown to pieces during the period, it could not be stopped.

The roar resounded across the sea and really lasted for half an hour.

…

The time arrived, the bombardment ended, the raised sea water finally fell, and the fog and smoke were gradually blown away by the sea breeze. The sea surface became quiet again, with only the whistling sound of the Silver Wing's steam vents.

"Silver Wings move forward." The front-line commander of the Silver Wings issued an attack order.

All the Silver Wings who received the order dived down together. They aimed their alchemical rifles at the sea surface below, and could shoot immediately if they found anything moving.

The fog had not completely dissipated, and it was impossible to see whether the iceberg existed.

The Silver Wings continued to dive...

Just as the Silver Wings were about to rush into the fog, they saw a large number of black spots suddenly appear in the smoke. The alert Silver Wings immediately changed their flight direction and shot at the black spots...

Gunshots rang out!

However, the attack of the Silver Wings did not seem to have much effect. The black spots rushed out of the fog without any pause and flew towards the Silver Wings.

"It's the devil... the devil from hell! How can there be so many devils from hell!"

Devils are creatures of hell that are born at the eleventh or twelfth order. Among the regular creatures of hell, devils are at the highest level, second only to the ultimate creatures, demons.

In appearance, devils and demons have many similarities, and they have the same flesh wings. But devils are much smaller than demons, and they are slender, and use scimitars as weapons. Demons are one of the few hell races that can fly naturally. The initial eleventh order makes devils very strong in the regular air combat units of various races.

Most of the pilots of Silver Wing are high-level magicians of the 7th to 9th order, and their strength is not only one or two levels lower than that of hell demons, who are equivalent to eleventh-order magicians. Therefore, when Silver Wings saw a large number of hell demons rushing out of the fog, they immediately fled in panic, and had no courage to turn around and fight.

But how could Silver Wing, who flew with an aircraft after birth, be the opponent of the devil who was born to fly? What's more, the two sides encountered so close that when Silver Wing discovered the demon, they had already mixed together.

The devil has a very high talent for magic, especially for control magic. The suppression of rank made it impossible for the magicians driving the silver wings to resist effectively. They didn't even know how they were attacked, and they lost control of their bodies, and then were chopped off their heads by the devils who caught up with them.

Under the watchful eyes of the Scarab Company fleet, a massacre took place in the sky above the sea, the silver wings fell one after another, and the airships were also submerged in explosions and flames.

Soon, only the devils were parked in the sky.
