Chapter 447: Sea Beast Tide! Players Join the Battle! (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Viewed from above, the ma.s.sive sea beast tide, which had once spanned tens of kilometers, was now coming together in a pyramid-like formation. They were lured by the scent of flesh and obstructed by the islands geography, all making their way towards the ultimate defense line.

Intermittent m.u.f.fled thunder signaled the triggering of underwater mines, each causing hundreds of casualties.

Dealing with these irrational sea beasts with human intelligence was remarkably easy.

The only problem was their sheer numbers.

Soldiers from the Stars.h.i.+ne Islands flew through the air on the broad backs of giant sea eagles. This caused the sea beasts below to roar and claw at the air in frustration.

Many sea beasts with ranged attack abilities launched bone spikes, but due to the height difference, the giant sea eagles easily evaded them.

The soldiers gazed down at the densely packed sea beasts below, their hearts racing. They clung tightly to the reins, aware that a single misstep could lead to being swallowed and digested, becoming a pile of waste.

At that moment, they suddenly noticed something unusual among the sea beasts, furrowing their brows in deep concern.

A large gap appeared in the center of the crowded sea beast tide, with only a ma.s.sive group of sea beasts numbering in the thousands, among which one sea beast stood out conspicuously.

All other sea beasts maintained a certain distance from it, seemingly fearing it.

He tapped the giant sea eagle, urging it to descend for a closer look.

But as he did, the soldier who had been staring intently suddenly saw the strange sea beast lift its head and look in their direction.

Instantly, alarm bells rang in his mind.

He immediately commanded the giant sea eagle to leave.

However, it was too late. The group of sea beasts numbering in the thousands raised their ma.s.sive tails hidden beneath the water, and the crystals at the tips of their tails emitted beams of blue light in rapid succession, much like a burst of machine gun bullets.

The soldiers pupils contracted sharply, reflecting flashes of intense blue light.

Swoos.h.!.+

A beam of light precisely struck the wing of the giant sea eagle, effortlessly piercing through it like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter, leaving behind a searing wound and a cavity.

Losing one of its wings, the giant sea eagle tumbled helplessly a few times before plummeting straight into the sea beast horde, torn to shreds amid the soldiers terrified cries.

Ji Chen quickly received this message: In the center of the sea beast tide, there is a formidable sea beast capable of emitting blue beams, and among them is a suspected commanding unit.

Due to the harsh living conditions in the sea, there were not many sea beasts with long-range attack capabilities among them. If they did possess such abilities, it was usually through means like launching bone spikes. Sea beasts capable of emitting laser-like beams, like the ones before them, were unheard of.

The ocean was vast, and the diversity of sea beast species within the marine race was countless. It was only due to this sea beast tide that these sea beasts, which had never been seen by outsiders, were forced to reveal themselves.

However, just this single tribe of sea beasts numbering in the thousands was evidently not enough to change the overall situation.

He merely instructed Alice not to get too close to that particular group of sea beasts, and everything else should proceed according to the plan.

The sea beast tide had completely entered the archipelago, devouring one bait after another, heading straight into the trap.

These sea beasts, known for their relentless aggression, were utterly oblivious to the fact that they had walked right into a trap. At this moment, they were immersed in a frenzied feast of flesh.

Even if some among them sensed that something was amiss, they were compelled to press forward by the throngs of sea creatures behind them. Stopping meant being trampled into a pulp and devoured by their fellow kin.

At this point, there was no turning back; everything had reached an unstoppable point.

When the sea beasts finished consuming the last few baits in front of them and began searching for the next one, they saw something in the distance.

Two cliffs stretching for tens of miles and thousands of enemies standing between them.

Without any hesitation, the tightly packed sea beast horde charged forward.

They didnt even notice the formidable aura emanating from these enemies.

The towering cannons protruding from the islands on both sides, and the underwater mines scattered throughout the strait.

In an instant, the waters between the two islands were filled with ferocious sea beasts, every inch of the sea surface occupied by them, and even more beneath it.

Thanks to the natural terrain, the Ocean Crown army only needed to guard this three-kilometer-long sea pa.s.sage. The density of their defensive forces was extremely high. Having prepared for a long time, they gazed coldly at the approaching sea beasts.

However, the first round of counterattacks didnt come from them but from the numerous artillery positions on the islands.

Adjust the cannon firing parameters!

Load the sh.e.l.ls!

Sh.e.l.ls loadedfire!

As soon as the soldiers in the artillery positions heard the command to fire, they instinctively pulled the ropes, instantly tightening them. The cannon barrels suddenly recoiled.

Amidst a burst of orange-red flames, projectiles of various sizes rained down from the sky like a downpour.

The surging sea beast tide hadnt even reached the defensive line yet when it was bombarded relentlessly. A mult.i.tude of sea beasts were devoured by the flames, and even the splashes of water were evaporated.

But their numbers were simply too great. The gaps cleared by the sh.e.l.ls were filled in the next moment, with even more sea beasts than before.

Their speed didnt diminish in the slightest, resembling a black tidal wave that crashed violently against the defensive line in a matter of seconds.

The most brutal and crucial battle on the Stars.h.i.+ne Islands had begun.

Regardless of victory or defeat, it would leave a profound mark in the annals of history..
