On the coastal front.
After the bombardment ceased, the defending troops on the front lines finally breathed a sigh of relief. In this world dominated by magic, wars like the one before were rarely seen anymore.
At this moment, the Japan soldiers and mages were extremely grateful that among the reinforcements sent by the Ten Master Clans was Katsuto Jumonji, a direct descendant of the Jumonji Family. Without his " Phalanx," the previous round of artillery bombardment would have already caused them heavy losses.
Before these people could even begin to cheer, the sky darkened in an instant. Unlike the gloom of a rainy day, the darkness that enveloped them now was like night.
Darkness enveloped the entire beachhead, and then, tiny points of light appeared in the dark sky. Upon seeing this, most of the mages panicked. Although only a very few of these mages had actually witnessed that magic, even if they had only heard about it from documents or other people, it was still a vivid memory for them.
"Night"!
" Meteor Stream "!
Regardless of what it was called, almost all the magicians were thrown into panic when this magic descended.
Masaki Ichijo's eyes widened, his hands and even his whole body trembling. Born into the Ten Master Clans, he naturally knew more than the others. The magic before him was too similar to the " Meteor Stream " he knew. But he knew very well that the " Queen of the Night " could not possibly be here in person. Moreover, the area covered by this magic was their side, which meant that it was magic cast by the other side!
"How could this be!?" Masaki Ichijo was completely panicked. He couldn't tell whether the magic was just for show or if it truly possessed the destructive power of " Meteor Stream." If it was the latter, then everyone on the entire beachhead would be doomed!
Just as he was being carried back to the rear camp Katsuto Jumonji rushed out of his tent. He looked at the points of light in the dim sky, his forehead already covered in sweat. Like Masaki Ichijo, he couldn't tell whether the magic was " Meteor Stream " or not. But if it was, then even if he used " Phalanx " to build a defensive barrier for the people on the front line, it wouldn't be able to stop the magic at all!
Just as the Japan defense forces on the front line were thrown into chaos, Yunyi's magic was ready. He slowly raised his hand, his open palm facing the area shrouded in darkness, and whispered, "Activate!"
As he finished Kanon, the faintly glowing points of light in the darkness suddenly brightened, and then began to move through the dark space at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to follow. Although these points of light were very fast, they did not directly kill the members of the Japan defense force; they simply hovered quietly after moving to the side of some of them.
Some people, frightened by the movement of these orbs of light, hurriedly tried to get away, but the orbs relentlessly pursued them. This scene, witnessed by others, intensified their fear.
Just as these people were on the verge of mental collapse, all the orbs of light under the dark sky suddenly emitted a blinding light! Then, beams of light connected the orbs together. Those who had initially stood in the way of the orbs were undoubtedly pierced through by these connecting beams!
In an instant, screams echoed under the dark sky. In that single moment, the Japan beachhead was already declared destroyed.
As darkness dissipated, the beach was almost entirely stained red with blood. Masaki Ichijo knee, watching the landing craft steadily moving across the sea, his teeth clenched. During the earlier magical attack, he had managed to dodge the beam of light connecting to the orb at the last moment. However, one of his arms had been severed by the beam. Blood gushed from his severed arm, the profuse bleeding causing him to become somewhat delirious.
"Hmm? You're still alive. No wonder you're from the Ten Master Clans. But Your Highness, the Bloodstained Prince, was that blood you used to stain yourself?"
Suddenly, a somewhat familiar voice reached Masaki Ichijo's ears. He turned his head and saw Yunyi's face, which was full of a mocking smile.
"You... bastard..." Masaki Ichijo gritted his teeth and uttered the last words before collapsing onto the beach.
Looking at the Masaki Ichijo, Yunyi sighed softly. He had once planned to help this guy marry Miyuki Shiba. However, due to certain uncertainties, he abandoned that plan. Moreover, the Shiba siblings now knew many secrets because of his actions, making it much more difficult to separate them now than before.
Not long after, the landing force of the Great Asian Alliance successfully landed. They quickly occupied the front line, took over the Japan camp, and cleared away the bodies of the fallen on the beach before the landing force commander came to Yunyi's side.
" Second Lieutenant Yun, according to our search, we haven't found the body of the Katsuto Jumonji. I think he must have survived by sheer luck and even managed to escape."
Upon hearing this report, Yunyi raised his eyebrows.
"This guy actually has some skills."
"Lieutenant, what should we do with the wounded Japan soldiers? We're just a landing force; our logistics can't handle so many prisoners and wounded," the commander asked.
"What do we care about the wounded soldiers from Japan? We don't need prisoners. Just dump them in the nearby towns. Whether anyone rescues them or not, let's see if the Japan have any conscience." Yunyi responded without hesitation.
This war, he wants destruction. Not only to ruin Japan's development, but also to utterly destroy the nation's backbone. As for the prisoners, they started the war, and they must bear the consequences. A few Japan prisoners think they can freeload off him?
Upon hearing Yunyi's words, a strange expression appeared on the commander's face. Before setting off, he had been ordered to follow Yunyi's command in all matters after landing, but he still hesitated in the face of Yunyi's order.
Meanwhile, several Japan logistics soldiers dragged Katsuto Jumonji to a nearby town. They had reported what had happened to the military and contacted the Jumonji Family, hoping they could send reinforcements to pick them up in time. Otherwise, the seriously injured Katsuto Jumonji might not survive!
Meanwhile, the Jinhae Naval Port of the Great Asian Alliance.
The combined fleet returned to the naval port, preparing to pick up reinforcements and continue its journey to Japan. But when Liu Yunde saw the scene at the port, he froze on the spot.
