Celestial Voice Assimilation! 1/2

A three-pronged attack, with beams of red, black, gold, and silver light crisscrossing and crashing down on the White Giant.

The explosive light patterns, like starlight shining in the sky, caused the monster on the sea to stumble and fall, stirring up raging waves that swept along the coast. The priests and Magecraft of the Acropolis of Athens frantically reinforced their Magic Barrier to keep the aftershocks of the battle at bay.

"Below the chest, the star core!"

Samael pointed his Cross Spear forward, and based on his combat experience, Athena and Themis gave him a warning.

As their power increased, the ether around the three deities surged and boiled violently, forming different brilliant colors under the influence of their respective powers. These colors coalesced into a hundred-foot-long beam of light, which bombarded the White Giant's star core.

"Laaaa!"

At the same time, ethereal sounds, like songs, poems, calls, and murmurs, came from the sea, carrying the Aether Tide and forming visible golden-blue starlight patterns.

The ripple-like radiance spread rapidly, instantly engulfing the White Giant.

Amidst some incredible, thunderous tremor, the giant's pure white body was etched with Golden-Blue Star Markings identical to those of Seferu.

Immediately afterwards, the features, limbs, joints, and body outline gradually became clear and solid.

In the monster's hand, a seven-colored light sword materialized, and with a horizontal slash, it forcefully shattered the three-way attack.

Samael stared at the other Star-Seeded Soldier looked remarkably similar to Seferu and whose aura was no weaker than hers, and her expression changed drastically.

The Celestial Voice Assimilation!

The abilities that Seferu acquired after arriving in Greece and developing to this point can even be replicated to other Star-Seeded Soldier through audio humming!

Damn it, how are you supposed to play this?!

"Buzz!"

Just as everyone was in a state of extreme shock, the second Star-Seeded Soldier gripped his sword with both hands and plunged the light blade into the sea. A series of colorful Star Ring emerged and converged around the monster.

At the same time, hundreds of golden-blue pillars of light rose from the near sea and shot straight into the sky.

As the sea surged violently, one after another, hundred-meter-tall monsters emerged from the coalescing metal particles, each wielding a long, luminous spear, with bronze bone spikes adorned with golden and blue star patterns, and tentacle-like wings on their backs. They walked step by step toward Athens and the coastal city-states.

Behind them, large and small deep-sea warships, as well as countless Echidna Armory weapons and black-bodied, red-striped humanoid combat weapons, all emerged from the pillars of light.

Damn it! They can even summon the Colossal Titan!

The ancient serpent's heart sank to the bottom, and a sense of powerlessness and frustration gradually arose in its mind in the face of the current crisis.

The Colossal Titan advanced like tanks, crushing or piercing the scattered islands along their path, or breaking them apart by the subsequent deep-sea warships.

When they were no more than a kilometer away, the Star Crest on the Colossal Titan's bodies shone brightly, and they slowly raised their arms, the light spears in their palms tilting forward, their tips shining even brighter.

Seeing this, Samael immediately understood that these things were gathering ether, thus forming a rapidly compressed Magic Beam that was about to bombard the ground.

However, before he could get away to stop the Colossal Titan's charged bombardment, a series of sonic booms came from ahead. The Star-Seeded Soldier, which had synchronized with Seferu's experience and abilities through [Celestial Voice Assimilation], was wielding a seven-colored lightsaber and slashing towards him, Athena, and Themis.

"Enemy attack! Defend! Defend!"

Samael couldn't dodge in time and could only turn around and scream as a warning, the divine power resonating and the sound of the rooster crowing.

In an instant, the Orphic Cult temples and altars of many city-states, including Athens, Corinth, Thebes, Iolcus, Arcadia, Calydon, burst forth with a scarlet glow and emitted urgent echoes. The ominous bells rang sharply and incessantly, causing the residents of the entire city to feel pain in their eardrums and be filled with fear. They all activated the city-state's wartime Magic Barrier.

Hiss hiss hiss!

In an instant, thousands of red and black Magic Beam shot out from the tip of the Colossal Titan's light-shaped spear, traversing the sky like a meteor shower hurtling across the heavens.

At the very top of the Acropolis of Athens, thousands of Magecraft and priests raised their hands and chanted divine words, drawing ether to gather.

The rock face shimmered with light, and countless Sorcery Array rose up in layers, forming a twelve-tiered barrier corresponding to the twelve palaces of the Yellow Jade Mount of Ares under the guidance of the star chart and talismans.

A thick, red-black Magic Beam, nearly half the diameter and tens of meters long, slammed down like a battering ram carrying immense force onto the semi-circular protective wall surrounding Athens.

Intense ripples spread and surged from the point where the Magic Beam landed, emanating a beautiful yet dangerous aura.

However, as the divine runes supporting the barrier flickered, the Magic Beam that struck the light barrier were gradually offset and neutralized.

However, Athens' barrier was not facing a single Magic Beam, but hundreds of them! The continuity and intensity of these attacks were terrifying.

Before the etheric waves that had burst from this node could be quelled, beams of light, tens and hundreds of them, arrived one after another, striking different parts of the barrier.

In an instant, colorful flames exploded one after another in various parts of the outer barrier, and the strong ripples formed by the shock waves intertwined and merged, causing uncontrollable shocks and distortions.

Click! Click! Click!

Like the sound of shattering glass, it was incessant. The light wall shattered like glass, breaking off into fragments that fell one by one, turning into specks of light dust that drifted into the air.

The fierce, hundred-strong Magic Beam pierced through the three carefully prepared barriers of the Acropolis of Athens before finally dissipating.

Meanwhile, the divine runes inscribed on the Acropolis of Athens walls with high-end materials such as crystal powder and the blood of gods and monsters began to peel off and disappear.

Seeing this, the defenders looked at the Colossal Titan coming from the sea, accompanied by raging waves, their faces grim and their hearts sinking to the bottom.

If the information from the front lines is accurate, this thing called the [Spirit Liquid Cannon] can continuously gather magical power and fire at a high frequency.

However, the protective barrier that the Acropolis of Athens has carefully maintained currently only has twelve towers, and even if it is temporarily set up, it is far from keeping up with the rate at which the enemy is being consumed.

At this moment, looking back, the many city-states along the way, such as Corinth, Thebes, Iolcus, Arcadia, Calydon, which had limited preparations, had their Magic Barrier dimmed and their protective power dropped below the warning level after being hit by only a few beams of light.

The affected areas along the way suffered even more devastation.

The earth was ploughed into terrifying ravines, and molten soil flowed like lava. Mountain peaks collapsed and crumbled, vegetation was destroyed and set ablaze, and villages and towns with no shelter were reduced to scorched earth, with black smoke billowing everywhere, a scene of utter devastation.

If it weren't for the earlier construction of the coastal wall, which bought two hours for the various city-states to gather their towns and villages and urgently enter a state of war preparedness, the number of casualties in this single round would likely have been in the thousands.

One Star-Seeded Soldier is enough to deal with a whole army of gods; two would be in a precarious situation.

The opportunity has been lost, and a quick victory is impossible. We must deal with these Colossal Titan first!

Samael, Athena, Themis steadied themselves and, seeing the devastation of the city-states and villages behind them, had no choice but to grit their teeth and temporarily halt their attack on the Star-Seeded Soldier, clearing the area first.
