<h4>Chapter 801: Textbook Example Of Warfare</h4>


    It was not the space fortress of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring or the Order of the Fiery Molten Mountain that fired the main cannon; it was one of the three space fortresses that White Ste had brought with her.


    As one of the top war weapons of the Magus Civilization, space fortresses had been avable for purchase by the Magus Alliance’s member nes for many years.


    However, most of them could only acquire older and obsolete models.


    The sea races of the Magus World, being key stakeholders within the Magus Alliance, enjoyed purchasing privileges that were several tiers higher.


    The three space fortresses White Ste brought were among thetest models developed in the past ten thousand years,parable to the one Lorianne had acquired recently.


    One of these fortresses, designed to resemble a beautiful conch, was a custom model worth no less than thirty million magicoins.


    The mermaids and the other elite sea races were indeed wealthy!


    The expansive oceans of Magus World were rich in valuable resources and rare materials.


    The sea races, as the native inhabitants of these waters, naturally held an advantage in exploiting and developing these resources.


    The activation of the main cannon by the sea races’ space fortress not only demonstrated their might to their enemies but also signaled their support for the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring and the other Magus World Army.


    No one appreciated allies who sought only to im rewards without contributing to the battle.


    Although the leaders of the sea races did not explicitly state their intentions regarding the Miseryth City, their actions and hints before the battle indicated that they intended to take full control of this conflict.


    However, they would not prevent the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring or the Order of Fiery Molten Mountain from participating in the subsequent division of war spoils.


    This was the definition of a valuable ally!


    The sea races’ initiative won the admiration of the knights and mages fighting alongside them.


    It became clear that the growing influence of the sea races within the Magus Civilization in recent years, along with the increasing number of Rank Four and above individuals advocating for them, was not without reason.


    As a member of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring, Sein was expected to join the battle.


    However, thanks to the participation of the sea races, he found himself as one of the “spectators” on the top floor of the Verdant Spring Space Fortress.


    With no immediate danger and the potential for substantial war gains, this method of warfare was undoubtedly appealing to many.


    So far, only the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring and the Order of the Fiery Molten Mountain could enjoy such a privilege in the Wild Gori World.


    The beam from the main cannon of the space fortress swiftly breached the outer defenses of Miseryth City.


    Surprisingly, this Wild Gori megacity had erected an energy barrier. Though rudimentary and crude, it was impressive considering their resources.


    The barrier was constructed by the two Gori Gods guarding the city, who had gathered the faith of all the citizens to create this thin white shield.


    However, the Magus World space fortress’ main cannon was powerful enough to pierce even nar barriers.


    A mere shield of faith stood no chance.


    As soon as the white barrier shattered like a fragile eggshell, the legion of sea racesmenced their charge.


    The art of warfare and strategicmand was not exclusive to the Magus World’s knights and mages.


    In Sein’s opinion, themander of the sea races demonstratedmendable talent on the battlefield.


    Warriors from various sea races advanced in coordinated waves.


    Among the twenty thousand Sea Kings participating in the assault, Sein spotted giant sea turtles and Tyrant Squids joining the fray.


    These giant sea turtles bore no rtion to Tourmaline; they were purely marine turtle creatures, while Tourmaline was a dragon turtle.


    N?v(el)B\\jnn


    One particrly hefty sea turtle, over thirty meters tall and protected by a shimmering, azure water shield, rammed into the wall of Miseryth City, leaving a deep dent in it.


    Other sea turtles and the Tyrant Squids followed suit, with one of them stretching over 180 meters in length.


    Sein spected that that particr Tyrant Squid might possess the Sea King bloodline.


    However, since it was not officially part of the Sea King Army, his spection might not be true.


    It could simply be an exceptionallyrge squid, devoid of any special bloodline.


    One thing Sein had often overlooked was that, while sea races were frequently ced alongside Magus World’s other native races such as magic beasts and demihumans, their genealogy was much more extensive.


    Oceanic magic beasts were part of the sea races, as were intelligent marine beings like the mermaids.


    This vast array of creatures rivaled the diversity ofnd-dwelling creatures, and there was a reason why the Magus Alliance kept the sea races under scrutiny.


    The battle at Miseryth Citysted barely three days, making it the shortest confrontation Sein had experienced since setting foot in Wild Gori World.


    The outnumbered Wild Gori Army, facing an enemy with forces dozens of times their size,cked the will to put up a fierce fight—it was simply pointless.


    The two cunning Rank Four Gori Gods, wise to the danger they faced, fled at the start of the battle as soon as they saw the strength of their opponents.


    Unburdened by heavy armor, they escaped swiftly, abandoning their legions.


    Although some Rank Four and higher Sea Kings tried pursuing them, their massive and heavy bodies were simply not suited for the task.


    After capturing Miseryth City, the millions-strong aquatic army refrained from mass ughtering the city’s inhabitants.


    They swiftly dismantled any remaining resistance and took over the city’s defense.


    A curfew was imposed, and hidden war supplies were efficiently extracted from secret warehouses.


    The professionalism disyed by the sea races during this internar battle was impressive.


    Some divine towers and knightly orders with less internar war experience might not have been as organized as these aquatic forces.


    “This aquatic army must have participated in more than one internar war. I heard that the Magus Alliance granted the sea races more freedom tounch their own internar campaigns long ago,” Lorianne said with a note of admiration as she watched the sea races demonstrate textbook-perfect battle strategy.


    “There are many space-time rifts under the Magus World’s oceans that connect to other nes. It seems the rumors that the sea races their conquests through those rifts are indeed true,” she added.


    “With these sea races on our side, the subsequent battles will definitely be easier. I just hope there’ll be enough spoils left for us to share,” Oneille, the Rank Five knight, muttered in annoyance.
