Chapter 143 The Great Silence VIII(1/2)
Terra Calendar 1590.12.26.
PM 11:30.
Border of Chaos Sea·Azure Sea.
Poseidonese Islands.
At night, the Poseidonese Islands are bathed in a quiet and mysterious moonlight, and the entire sea area is shrouded in a deep and tranquil blue.
The stars in the sky shone softly, and the gentle sea breeze brought the smell and subtle salt of the distant ocean, making this moment particularly fresh and peaceful.
The three hundred super giant lighthouses built in Iberia look particularly spectacular in this quiet night.
The light emitted from the huge crystal top of each lighthouse shines in the night, like lights lighting up the entire coastline. The light of these lighthouses draws elegant arcs in the darkness, echoing the stars in the sky.
Forming a unique skyline picture.
On the archipelago, Atlantis's absurd architecture looks even more mysterious under the cover of night.
The ancient stone buildings and sculptures cast long shadows under the moonlight, adding a sense of calm and ancient beauty. At the same time, they also form a striking contrast with Iberia's super-giant lighthouse full of technology.
contrast.
The Iberian ships were arrayed along a spectacular strategic defense line composed of 300 super giant lighthouses, like a string of pearls inlaid on the edge of the deep blue ocean.
In the night sky, the light from the lighthouse dances on the sea, providing the fleet with bright navigation lights one after another.
These ships are arranged like an indestructible steel wall, firmly guarding the safety of Iberia's waters.
"Colonel Elsie, do you feel something is wrong?"
Samuel, the deputy commander of the Iberian naval fleet in the present world, [San Cristobal], with the rank of lieutenant commander, is uneasily pulling out the thaumaturgy gun from his waist, with an unusually alert look.
Looking ahead at the area belonging to the Haihe Empire.
"Something is very wrong..." Elsie, the commander of the San Cristobal and a naval captain, was as uneasy as his adjutant.
"Damn it, the military strength guarding the front line of the Sea of Chaos is already quite tight. Now because of the sudden declaration of war by the Kingdom of Heaven, most of the fleet has gone to the front line for reinforcements. We are the only remaining battle group stationed in the Sea of Chaos.
, and the number of spiritual ships is less than double digits. If Haiji counterattacks inland at this time, Iberia will definitely not be the only one who suffers!" The major said through gritted teeth while calling up the ship's spiritual radar detection module.
"Things that can cause the Kingdom of Heaven to directly attack us are definitely not simple. The top brass of the Military Commission and the Hall of Hunting must be hiding something from us." The colonel's expression at this time was also slightly gloomy.
The moment they received the information that Iberia and the Kingdom of Heaven were at war, their hearts were overwhelmed by surprise and panic.
The Kingdom of Heaven has always been known for its cautious decision-making. Why did they choose to attack Iberia at this juncture?
This was completely beyond the colonel's expectations.
Among the twenty-six countries of the Central Alliance, the Kingdom of Heaven and Iberia have always maintained a delicate balance. As a coastal power, Iberia is responsible for dealing with the invasion of the mainland of Terra by the Sea Successor and the Atlantis Empire.
, they can be regarded as allies to a certain extent with the Kingdom of Heaven.
Of course, since the [Seventy-two Hours of Crisis Incident] and the drastic changes in the Kingdom of Heaven, the kingdoms of Terra have begun to make moves.
They are trying to challenge the veil system established by the Kingdom of Heaven.
The three giants of the new era, led by the abnormal countries represented by the Daeva Empire and the Oletin Empire, and the Edici Federation, which has unprecedentedly announced that it has entered a semi-normal and semi-abnormal state in history, are trying to completely tear apart the system.
, and made no secret of his ambition to dominate Terra.
In the face of challengers, the Kingdom of Heaven cannot sit idly by.
They will definitely do things like killing chickens to scare monkeys. Every Terran knows in his heart that some unlucky person will become the bloody chicken in the hands of the Kingdom of Heaven.
What Colonel Elsie didn't expect was that Iberia would become the chicken in the hands of the Kingdom of Heaven to intimidate the world.
According to common sense, Berlin is a more reasonable conflict target than Iberia.
Berlin has always been considered a more likely point of conflict because of its political and military stance, but now the situation is completely opposite.
This sudden declaration of war not only changed the relationship between Iberia and the Kingdom of Heaven, but also dropped a shock bomb on the political structure of the entire Youyang Alliance.
At this critical moment, any wrong decision may lead to more serious consequences.
"Colonel, the main force of the third lead chain has completely lost contact with us."
At this moment, Major Samuel finally gave up the struggle after repeating the failure of actively connecting the main fleet of the third guide chain.
"……I see."
Colonel Elsie nodded with a heavy heart, and at the same time, he looked towards the Poseidonese Islands on the other side.
"Now we need to do our own job first. The direction of the Poseidonese Islands is very wrong. Those sea heirs have never been so quiet in the past. It is too quiet."
"Those heirs have never been so quiet. Are they planning something big?"
Samuel raised his blunderbuss, activated the spiritual self-aim on the blunderbuss, and began to aim at the other side of the sea.
If anything goes wrong, his gun will sense and capture it immediately.
[Danger index: 5——]
[Danger index: 5——]
[Danger index: 7——]
The circular danger index detection frame was suspended in the orbit of Samuel's right eye. He kept scanning the sea area and found that the danger index only showed ordinary values.
The danger value for an ordinary person in extreme condition is 5, and the danger value constantly displayed around him is too safe for Samur.
beep——
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Danger detection continues to scan the surrounding area.
Suddenly, Samuel stopped testing.
Because at this moment, the value on the danger index detection frame floating in his eye sockets is constantly soaring.
[Danger index: 100...500...1000...]
[Danger index: 1500...2500...5000...]
"What is going on!?" Looking at the rising danger index, Samuel couldn't help but be shocked.
"What's wrong?"
Colonel Elsie looked at Samuel nervously. He was quite aware of the gun-fighting ability of Samuel's thaumaturgy gun. It was by relying on the opponent's danger detection that they were able to fight Haiji.
Make quick strategic adjustments during the battle.
"There is a situation, something terrible is approaching us!" Samuel said with a pale face, his eyes with detection frames constantly scanning the dead sea.
"Where is the danger? Where is the danger? Why can't I see it!?"
Samuel murmured in panic. The reason why he lost his composure was precisely because of his absolute confidence in his gun fighting skills.
[Danger index: 10000...15000...20000...]
"Samuel, calm down!!!" The colonel immediately yelled at Samuel, who was spiritually unstable.
However, his scolding did not make Samuel feel relieved, because at this moment, for Samuel, the danger index of the right eye frame had soared to a value that shook his spirit violently.
[Danger index: 21000...23000...24000!!!!]
Bang--
When it soared to 24,000, Samuel's gunfighting skills finally couldn't hold on anymore and exploded. The circular projection frame on his right eye frame also exploded into pieces. He fell weakly to the deck, letting out a painful wail.
"Samuel!!!" The colonel hurried up to check on Samuel's injury.
At this moment, there was an unprecedented severe pain in his right eye. Samuel covered his bleeding right eye, stretched out his index finger tremblingly, pointed it at the sky, and said to the colonel in a fearful voice:
"The sky is the sky!!!"
"Sky?"
Elsie looked up at the sky in confusion.
At night, the stars twinkled.
"What's wrong with the sky..."
Boom——
A dull sound sounded from the sky.
Under the night cover of the Poseidonese Islands, a shocking change took place in the sky.
Suddenly, the sky seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, and a huge gap opened.
In that gap, a collapsed black hole slowly appeared, hanging over the islands, bringing about an extraordinary phenomenon.
The accretion disk around this black hole rotates at high speed, generating intense friction and heat.
This heat is converted into dazzling light, illuminating the entire night sky, as if lights are lit in the darkness. The accretion disk is colorful, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and intertwined, like the most gorgeous fireworks in the Milky Way.
These strange and beautiful colors draw a huge "cross" in the night sky.
Under the cover of night, everyone who witnessed this scene could not help but look up to the sky.
Their eyes were full of surprise, awe and even fear.
At this moment, whether it is the residents of the island, the sailors on the voyage, or even the heirs hiding in the dark, all life is attracted by this shocking celestial phenomenon.
