Chapter 368 - Chapter 368: 348 (2/2)

Ariel was also full of shock, murmuring to herself, “Could this be a product of the Reforging Church? How could the Royal Family of Cyart have such a thing as their trump card?”

Struggling continuously in the water, Helen was suddenly lifted up by a pair of strong hands and instantly felt relieved.

“Father…”

She looked at the man wearing the Iron Mask, silent and uncommunicative.

Darren silently moved Helen onto another steamboat of the Fischer family.

He gazed at the distant battle puppet, saying,

“That’s a battle puppet of the Seven Stars!”

“The Seven Stars!”

Helen was startled, the only empire in the world that could contend with the Lorne Empire!

“It was constructed under the guidance of the Seven Stars Emperor, combining the manpower and resources of the entire empire, with a mass of craftsmen and alchemists spending years, through the Forbidden knowledge of the Spirit Realm combined with advanced alchemy technology and science, and consuming hundreds of Extraordinary materials, to finally create this ‘Calamity class’ weapon.”

“Although essentially it’s also an alchemical tool, the power it actually possesses is too exaggerated, especially its magic defensive barrier, which is said to be personally arranged by a Heavenly Enlightenment powerful expert!”

Helen suddenly understood why Ariel’s full-force attacks for a long time had no effect whatsoever.

Continuing with the information in his mind, Darren spoke on.

“It’s said that the battle puppets of the Seven Stars Empire are divided into ‘Attack class’, ‘Destruction class’, and ‘Calamity class’, and like this ‘Calamity class’, the highest level of battle puppets, in decades the Seven Stars Empire has only made a total of fifteen…”

His brow furrowed tightly, knowing the seriousness of the situation after this battle puppet appeared.

“Why would such a monster appear in Cyart’s civil war?”

The war situation was almost completely reversed; the rampaging Calamity puppet was invincible. Although its mobility was not as good as that of the Monarch powerful experts, and its way of attack was very simple, its unreasonable defensive power was truly terrifying.

It forcefully withstood the attacks of the Monarch powerful experts, crazily destroying the ships.

Ariel was furious beyond measure, having fought for so long without even being able to break through the barrier, her heart nearly cursing the other side.

“This thing isn’t a spider; it’s essentially a giant crab!”

Just when everyone was at a loss, the sky completely turned, obscured by dark clouds.

Sudden bolts of lightning, like the anger of the gods, furiously struck down from the cloud-filled sky, hitting the giant spider-shaped battle puppet on the sea.

At this moment, it became the focus of this divine punishment.

With every lightning strike, huge waves surged on the sea as though even the ocean trembled, and the magic barrier shell of the battle puppet gradually cracked under the barrage of lightning, emitting a piercing tearing sound.

Karl was exerting the authority of the God of the Ocean.

Its firepower gradually became ineffective amidst the lightning.

The world turned a completely different color at this moment; the clouds grew thicker, the lightning more violent.

The other ships and people on the sea were scared into a panic by the sudden divine punishment, yet the battle puppet had nowhere to escape, only able to struggle desperately in the endless lightning.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the magic barrier shell of the battle puppet completely shattered, and its massive body was struck by lightning and sank into the pitch-dark sea.

The sea was left in disarray and with everyone’s amazed gazes.

“What on earth happened?”

The sudden divine punishment left everyone shocked and fearful.

They did not know the reason behind it, but they all understood that there were forces in the world that could not be resisted, forces that could destroy everything easily, and make people tremble in endless fear.

The face of “Hunter in the Fog” Jayern changed.

That battle puppet didn’t belong to them; it was only borrowed from Carnia, and now it was damaged!

“This is bad, there will be trouble to deal with afterward!”

“Retreat!”

People from the Romann family and the Fischer family raised their weapons, cheering loudly, their voices surging like waves, echoing across the expansive sea.
