In their eyes, excitement gleamed, and they shouted loudly, “Lienhardt will win!”
The sky was filled with rolling dark clouds, and lightning serpents crackled, creating a stifling atmosphere that hung over the land. The air felt suffocating.
Finally, rain began to pour from the sky in torrents. The raindrops were as big as beans, seemingly intent on crushing anyone beneath them without mercy. Powerful sea winds howled in from the depths of the ocean, chilling them to the bone.
Monica watched this scene, her expression devoid of joy or sorrow, and she timed her command precisely.
“Attack!11
The drummers swung their arms in unison, and the war drums resounded.
This sound seemed to ignite the flames in the hearts of countless soldiers, driving away the cold brought by the rain and wind.
The long, melodious horn signal served as the cue for the assault. Over ten thousand troops began to march, brandishing their weapons high as they advanced towards the towering fortress.
The defenders on the walls of the Eiben Fortress saw the densely packed army approaching under the pouring rain, their weapons and armor glinting ominously. The heavy footsteps sounded as if they were echoing in their hearts, stirring a hint of fear.
“Do not be afraid! Eiben Fortress is unbreakable. As long as you swing your weapons, you can slay the enemy beneath the walls!
For those who hesitate or retreat, there will be no mercy 1”
The officers of the Bass Kingdom raised their weapons high and shouted, boosting the morale of the soldiers.
However, at this moment, they suddenly heard a strange sound, one that the mighty rain couldn’t mask.
Some soldiers cried out in fear.
“Look over there, a tsunami!!!”
A tsunami?
The officers of the Bass Kingdom turned their gaze towards the sea, and their pupils shrank to their limits.
At the distant horizon of the ocean, beneath the gloomy sky, a terrifying wave, almost seven to eight meters high and several kilometers wide, resembling a natural disaster, surged towards the Eiben Fortress.
The thunderous sound of the rolling waves grew even louder, completely drowning out the rain and the orderly footsteps of rhe enemy, becoming the only sound in this world.
Both Lienhardt’s side and the defenders of Eiben Fortress were left stunned.
Soon, the former reacted with fear and began to flee.
However, this immense wave was unstoppable, and there was no way to evade it.
Boom!
The gigantic wave rushed forward, crashing heavily into the fortress.
The section of the wall closest to rhe sea was instantly demolished by this terrifying force, taking the soldiers on it along. Then, due to a brief obstruction, the surging seawater poured into most of rhe fortress from above like water from the sky.
The alchemical cannons, defensive machinery, soldiers, flags, and watchtowers placed on top were all swallowed by the waves.
Before the soldiers from Lienhardt’s side could regain their composure, two more enormous waves attacked the Eiben Fortress successively, one after the other.
When rhe calm finally returned, this fortress that stood on the eastern bank of the Eiben River, with its tall and sturdy walls and numerous defensive structures, had been submerged in a sea of water and lay in ruins.
The guild leaders of Zunong, Wang Shanyue, and others srared in disbelief as if they had witnessed something unbelievable.
Only I_Love_Black_Stockings displayed a heavy look of surprise on his face.
“This is Big Boss Ji Chen’s signature skill. Fie showcased it on King Kong Island before, although it wasn’t this terrifying…”
“This is Ji Chen’s doing!?”
The group of people exchanged shocked and unbelieving glances.
It couldn’t be, it was absolutely impossible!
Such a natural disaster tsunami, only gods could do it, right!?
How could a player possibly possess such terrifying power?
Monica stood on high ground, her expression also filled with shock. This was her first time witnessing Ji Chen personally take action, far exceeding her imagination.
In her heart, she felt extremely fortunate.
She felt lucky to have formed a strong friendship and connection with Ji Chen before he became one of the most powerful figures in rhe world. The effort she put into building that relationship was now paying off immensely.
After witnessing this scene, she had no doubt that Ji Chen could grow into the world’s top powerhouse, reigning over a vast land.
And their Lienhardt Grand Duchy would receive his friendly treatment and even his protection.
This was their greatest gain!
After a brief moment of shock, Monica’s face lit up with joy, and she shouted loudly, “Attack! Seize the opportunity to take down Eiben Fortress!”
In reality, rhe three waves had completely shattered Eiben Fortress’s defenses, even the city gates were torn apart by the violent onslaught of the waves. More than half of the fortress was submerged in water.
Perhaps it was a coincidence, but after the waves passed, the rain and wind gradually subsided.
They effortlessly entered the fortress, and upon seeing the dire situation inside Eiben Fortress, they couldn’t help but frown and shake their heads.
Within this vast fortress, there were still some surviving defenders. However, without exception, their faces were pale, and they lacked any will to resist, to the point where they even showed joyful expressions when they saw Lienhardt’s soldiers and willingly surrendered.
Perhaps sensing that something unusual had occurred here, a fleet from the Bass Kingdom sailed upstream on the Eiben River, attempting to use artillery fire to drive away Lienhardt’s invading soldiers from the fortress.
But before they could approach, a massive serrated tentacle emerged from the river and slammed heavily onto one of the warships, instantly causing an explosion.
Swoosh
A gigantic octopus, seemingly only existing in legends, revealed its enormous body from the river, with water flowing down from its head, forming cascades like waterfalls..
