In just the few minutes Aiven's consciousness spanned the entire known world of humanity, the fierce battle on the Andaman Strait battlefield had already reached a boiling point.

The young Great Wizard with red eyes and red hair from the "Flame Dragon Curse Seal" raised a primitive yet shining bronze lamp high in his hand, chanting the activation spell of this treasure:

"Blazing Dragon Breath, scorch the earth!"

A pea-sized flame jumped out from the bronze lamp, exploding with a "crackle" into thousands of blazing lamplights, viscous like oil, surging towards Anita, Nymph, Serra, and Jelos.

Boom——!!!

"Spread out!"

Even for those who do not emphasize fame much, the titled knights, most countries are generally aware of each other's renowned high-tier extraordinary individuals.

In the previous "Battle of Dierben Castle," Aiven, Anita, Nymph, and Serra all appeared, and they were assumed to be part of the Galliot Duchy's extraordinary core.

The Hilus people originally thought that even if the duchy participated in the battle this time, they would inevitably leave one or two people to guard the complex New Continent.

Unexpectedly, they dared to fully commit their forces without regard for the safety back home, even adding the complete newcomer, Jelos.

This situation greatly exceeded the Hiluses' expectations.

Even though they used small tricks to eliminate the alliance's strongest "Rose Sword Saint" Ilvendi, and Princeton manually joined the siege of the main fleet, the remaining four opponents were still a headache for them.

Originally believed that their prepared transcendents would give them the upper hand, they ended up at a disadvantage similar to the number of legendary battleships.

Clearly, even for the world's number one nation for nearly two hundred years, the highly intense multi-front combat became extremely pressing.

Of course, the root cause remains the speed at which the Galliot Duchy has risen like a comet in recent years, making intelligence outdated at the blink of an eye.

If they calculate them again using the duchy's current personnel configuration, they're bound to suffer greatly, that is, if there's a next time.

But these three Great Wizards clearly had something to rely on, and weren't panicked by the numerical disadvantage.

Marshal, the Great Wizard from the "Flame Dragon Curse Seal," released thousands of light flames forcing the duchy side to retreat temporarily, then communicated to his companions:

"Hold them off with all our might, and let Hilus' fleet decide the outcome by themselves; it's worth the pay we're getting."

Though Marshal looked young, at the Great Wizard level, it's hard to determine a person's age by appearance alone. If they wish, they can maintain the appearance unchanged until the end of their lifespan.

Moreover, it was evident this Great Wizard transplanted the flame dragon bloodline, as red scales grew on his cheeks and neck.

In legend, the current chief of the "Flame Dragon Curse Seal" is a pure-blooded flame attribute giant dragon.

There are even rumors that this strongest branch of the "Elemental Breathing School" has actually achieved the countless schools' dream [Truth Embodiment]!

Unlike the "titled knights" who need to declare their titles, like the Solomon School in similar situations, the reality of this force is uncertain to outsiders for the time being.

Perhaps only someone of "Truth Gate" School Chief Lady Kingfisher's status would know a bit more.

The Great Wizard Marshal's power also reached a seasoned level, and as the most powerful fire element wizard, he's clearly in his element in large-scale battlefields.

Moreover, in his hand was a celestial treasure, [Bronze Lamp: Scorched Dragon Breath], which had been treasured by the "Eternal Flame Original Sect" for years.

It's neither a "witchcraft tool" nor an "ocean treasure," but quite similar to a few Divine Gifts Aiven holds, all high-end items imbued with the power of at least a Tier 5 Demigod.

It was the compensation Hilus paid for their assistance.

Beside, Meredith, the Great Wizard from "Hurricane's Nest," with the [Storm God Statue], and Farhad of the "Yellow Sand Sect" with the [Vampire Mask], all held similar items.

Hilus' vast wealth accumulated over two hundred years from oppressing the seas and plundering the world, known as the "World Museum," is merely the tip of the iceberg.

Only at such a critical moment for the empire's survival would the vested-interest nobility be willing to part with their treasures.

Chattering...

After the sticky flames flew out, they changed with the wind, instantly transforming into countless colorful birds seemingly imbued with a spirit.

No matter how Anita and her group dodged, they relentlessly pursued, even clinging tightly to the surface of the [Witchcraft Shield], as persistent as a bone-attached worm.

This isn't just the power of the treasure, but the level of spellcasting Aiven once achieved in the "Dark Side of the World" using the [Creator's Blood] - "Elemental Civilization"!

In this current state, if the three Great Wizards could hold off the alliance's extraordinary powers, preventing them from disrupting the Hilus fleet, it would be a victory.

And for the duchy side, these outsiders brought by the Hilus weren't the main target; top-ranked wizards are inherently hard to kill, and they wouldn't want to waste time on them.

Anita, getting closer to an adult Sea Emperor Dragon, felt the heat in the flames, inhaling deeply without showing weakness. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Hiss——!

A frost-white piercing stream with tiny crystals, like a sinuous white dragon, shot out from her mouth, sweeping across the relentless firebirds.

[Dragon Breath: Frost Dust Breath]

Sizzle sizzle...

Like a hot iron plunged into water, under surprised gazes, both sides dissolved into nothingness.

Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!

Subsequently, Anita, as the force bearer, proactively took on "Flame Dragon Curse Seal" Marshall, while Serra faced "Hurricane's Nest" Meredith, and Nymph matched up against the Deceitful Fate Wizard Farhad of the Yellow Sand Sect.

Jelos, whose destructive power rivaled the Elemental School Wizards, activated [Magic-like Technique: Trait Incarnation: Envy], transforming into the appearance of a Flame Demon Spirit, directly charging into the Hilus fleet to start manually dismantling battleships.

He knew very well where the key point on the current battlefield was.

Soon, the extraordinaries from both sides began a ferocious battle revolving around the two fleets, more precisely, the [Emperor's Majesty] of the [Sea Monarchy].

On this battlefield located in the Andaman Strait, flames would roar at times, and rolling thunder would break out at others, with high-tier extraordinaries stirring the atmosphere at will, raising huge waves, using their inherent great power to influence the war, and also affecting... national destiny.

Boom! Boom! Boom!...

The evenly matched [Golden Bird] and [Sea Soul] were engaged in ruthless combat.

And commanding the entire Invincible Fleet with majestic dominance, the [Sea Monarchy], even when facing three opponents simultaneously, was not at a disadvantage for a short period of time.

Aiven, upon returning to his original body, opened his eyes to witness this very scene.

170 enchanted shipborne artillery guns, after marking the three legendary battleships, almost never missed, especially when the [Steam Fortress] engaged in close combat, it was the first to bear the brunt.

Entering Titan form, the "Steam Furnace" within his body roared continuously, various complex mechanical components emitted click-clack sounds, hitting and kicking with immensely heavy force, sustaining close-range output.

For this kind of ordinary attack, it wasn't worth using "Damage Transfer," the [Sea Monarchy] kept "Defense Concentration" constantly active, enduring the [Steam Fortress]'s iron fists.

Clang! Clang! Clang!...

Blazing shells continuously bombarded the fully activated shield of the steel Titan, pushing it back repeatedly, like a brawny man swinging a hefty mallet energetically hammering iron.

[Theseus] then activated [Legendary Battleship Skill: Time Mark], summoning the "Theseus Fleet."

Each of the nine warships could be the true body or a clone, and although the clones had only one-third the combat power of the true body, they still surpassed any quasi-legendary.

Combined with [Wind of Time Order], which allowed for quick recovery unless shattered by a single strike, and even immunity to debuff status, [Theseus] fearlessly charged through the rain of shells.

Using [Copper Horn Mountain], repeatedly shaking the [Sea Monarchy]'s seemingly unbreakable "Absolute Defense."

After returning, Aiven did not rush to hunt down the Great Wizard but instead regained control over the water flow and wind direction, aiding his fleet.

At the same time, he authorized the continuously flashing and dodging [Crown of Miracles], opening [Front/Back Missile Launching Well], [Main/Deputy Electromagnetic Cannon Tower], [Light Beam Cannon: Red-haired Witch], the weapon systems collaborated to launch pinpoint attacks on the Invincible Fleet.

"Defense Concentration" was already used on the [Sea Monarchy] itself, it did not dare to pause for a moment amidst the siege from two legendary battleships. At this time, as long as it sank even one enemy ship at the same time, using "Damage Transfer" would be pointless.

Although not as satisfying as [Black Gold's Justice Iron Fist], the attack frequency from [Crown of Miracles] was indeed high.

Across the entire Invincible Fleet participating in the battle, even including those Level 5 ships, there were no more than 500 ships total; even if one knocked on them individually, eventually one would achieve a qualitative change!

Current status of the naval battle.

The [Sea Monarchy] in the midst appeared like a heavy-armored knight; the [Steam Fortress] was a shield warrior charging ahead; the [Theseus] was a lancer fearlessly advancing;

[Crown of Miracles] danced like an assassin on the knife edge, but each counterattack in its openings caused the armored knight excruciating pain.

Numerous tactics progressing in parallel led to impressive battle results.

Rumble! Rumble!...

The main battleships in the fleet were successively destroyed, and the [Sea Monarchy] also began to continuously weaken.

Prince Rodrigo, standing at his command position, looking somber.

[Legendary Battleship Skill: Emperor's Majesty] and [King's Attendant] both require fleet scale to support, at the beginning even if there were only two warships, they were still emperor's ceremonials.

But if one continued to fail in battle, the skill effect would rapidly weaken to nothing.

Without his army, even the noblest emperor would become utterly insignificant.

And the skill was linked to battle damage and morale, based on the quality of the Hilus Navy itself, achieving a damage rate of 40% while morale remained unbroken was already very commendable.

If battle damage exceeded this number, the morale of soldiers would collapse completely, and the [Sea Monarchy] would lose all its majesty!

Gazing at the distant black warship on the sea, the prince's eyes were cold:

"The Empire's foundation is not limited to this! Come forth, the fleet that will never collapse!"

Satiated nearly two hundred years, ruling the seas for over a hundred years, possessing countless priceless treasures. At such critical moments, naturally, there will be no more sparing.

Zap——!

A sound of trembling strings.

Woosh...

Suddenly, a vast sound of water echoed above the battlefield.

[Marine Treasure: Automatic Playing Gusli] plucked the first string, and an endless sea appeared in the sky; plucked another string, thirty main battleships sailed on the boundless sea; plucked the third string, and the battleships launched a focused attack on the enemy.

"Although the cooldown time is as long as a year, this is the biggest trump card paired with the [Sea Monarchy]!"
