“Is the army planning to kill it?” Mo Fan asked his lifelong buddy.

Zhang Xiaohou nodded, “Yes! I want to take part in it, but the army has already finalized the list of people taking part in the operation. The military has to preserve its strength in case of an emergency, so I have to be on standby here.”

“The personnel on standby are a part of the operation too. An operation doesn’t include just those taking part in it; it also needs others to stand guard. Otherwise, if the operation fails, the whole city will be exposed to the sea monsters!” Jiang Shaoxu had a military background. She was familiar with the planning of military operations.

People like Zhang Xiaohou who were on standby were not included in the operation because they had other obligations to fulfill!

The military had considered everything. A city with a population of over ten million people was behind them. They could not afford to stake everything on one throw of the dice!

Roars echoed across the sky like heavenly drums. The Sea Skeleton King was on the move.

It seemed to be familiar with the humans’ defenses, but it simply ignored them.

It reached the waters that were glowing golden. The clouds in the sky suddenly turned golden, too.

Shocking cracks spread from the clouds, followed by a sacred sword diving down from them. Its light spread several kilometers away, like the space was cracking apart.

Heaven-Rupturing Sword!

It was the third-tier Super Spell of the Light Element. It was rumored that it could take out Ruler-level creatures with a single blow.

Mo Fan immediately looked around. He wanted to know which Super Mage was Casting the spell.

He soon discovered a group of Mages emanating the same golden light. They were dressed in golden robes bearing the badges of the Dongfang Oriental Tower. They were obviously the leaders of the Magic City!

It was a whole group of them, instead of just one!

Their golden robes were glowing brightly. It was Mo Fan’s first time seeing the powerful Mages of the Oriental Pearl Tower working together. They were like a golden symbol of the Magic City!

The Sea Skeleton King had obviously anticipated the attack. Its body drifted backward, together with the falling tide.

However, the Heaven-Rupturing Sword had locked on to its target. It tilted slightly and pointed directly at the Sea Skeleton King.

The level of the spell was extremely close to the limit of human Mages. The people watching were relieved as the light of the sword fell down upon them. Humanity had the power to fight for their survival!

The Sea Skeleton King did not dodge the sword. The scorching light spread across its body, reaching from its head to its legs. It bellowed in pain.

The roar had awakened its power too. The water around it quickly gathered to repair its body as it was breaking apart.

The water was its life!

The shallow sea had almost been dried up by the Light Magic. The submerged Pudong District had almost reclaimed its initial appearance, but the Sea Skeleton King had still drawn water from the sea to repair its broken body.

“Seal off the water!” the aged commander yelled.

A group of Mages in golden-blue robes moved forward. They were scattered across the sea instead of being in a Formation. Every one of them was using their magic to control the water that was flowing into the Sea Skeleton King.

The Mages were obviously testing the Sea Skeleton King’s ability to repair itself with the seawater. They did not want to give the Sea Skeleton King a chance to recover!

“It’s up to the Water Mages as to whether we can kill the Sea Skeleton King or not,” Zhang Xiaohou told him.

“So many Super Mages!…” Mo Fan exclaimed.
