The Miracle of the Storm
Is today the last day? Or did the volcano erupt?
Everyone who witnessed it could not keep their mouths shut. Stems of flame densely crossed the sky and sprinted in an oblique line. It almost looked like rain of fire was falling from the sky.
It was absurd for a creature to have done it. Pope Nergal looked at the cardinal beside him and shouted.
“I’ll take that guy. Let me take care of the emergency blessing for you!”
“By the way, old man! I’m just trying to do things that are comfortable for me!”
The cardinal, who suddenly assumed the heavy duty, groaned. However, as the situation was the situation, he did not hesitate at all and laid his hand on the sky seat.
Thanks to the blessing of the flight hanging on the stone, the mighty Artavus can freely roam the skies carrying so many people.
Instead of eating an enormous amount of divine power, the movement of the airship is also free. Mobility, which is absolutely necessary at times like this, is definitely superior.
While avoiding the fireball in a zigzag motion, a beam of light was fired from the bow of the Artavus, which was rotating at right angles. Starting with that, rays of light began to be emitted one after another.
“ah. I wish I could turn him into an asshole.”
The magician who activated the magic cannon let out a terrifying sound.
“It seems that it will be difficult for the magic tower’s mass-produced magic cannon.”
What was originally kept for defense of the walls of Vales City was removed and loaded onto this ship.
It would have been able to demonstrate its outstanding power against the large army of demons, but it was useless against volcanic ash, so I brought it with me without any regrets.
Now, everyone was thinking that those heavy things were moved for some reason. The distance from the Phoenix was too far, so it couldn’t be an effective shot.
“The gun doesn’t even get hit, is this really true? Some degree of judo magic is also on it!”
The apprentice rubbed blood on his face and scolded him. If this isn’t military fraud, what is it?
How much budget were spent to prepare these cannons, but the accuracy of these cannons was truly disastrous.
Of course, the branch manager of the Vales City branch of Matop also had something to say. He responded with motion sickness.
“It’s basically shooting on stable ground! Like this… ah ah ah!”
The Artavus, which was rushing to avoid the flames, roared, and he couldn’t answer for a moment as he grabbed the handle next to him.
This ship was originally meant to observe the astronomy, not to run in rage to avoid flying fireballs. This means that the safety device for passengers is almost non-existent, so you have to fill it with your body.
“If you shoot from the top of an airship that is moving like this, you will not be able to hit a judo or anything!”
“He’s standing still like that, so why didn’t he hit it?!”
“We can’t stand still! In this situation, not even a cannon, but a cannon spare can not hit that!”
Pussiung! A ray of light hit the phoenix in a timely manner, as soon as he finished speaking. It wasn’t the result of some precise sniper, and it felt like I hit it by accident.
While the magician who shot the cannon was also admiring his amazing aim, Phoenix struck a magical shell that reached close range with his claw and blew it away. The sound of his snoring could be heard all the way from here. The shell exploded in mid-air, and the explosion didn’t sweep away anything.
“Hey, this man!”
Seeing this, the apprentice became very angry.
“Even after seeing this, is it still not illegal? Are you a person like this? Say it! Who gave you money? How much money did you spend so that the cannonball was a blank cannonball?!”
“You are mistaken, sir. Even though we eat money, we basically do everything we have to do.”
The head of the Cornell branch, caught by the collar, shook his head and made an excuse. He looked really sad. If it was really a magic cannon made out of corruption, the magic ball wouldn’t have exploded.
After inflating prices, he took outrageous extortion and sent a significant portion of the proceeds into his wallet to high-ranking officials and the military in the Citadel Republic. But nonetheless, there is nothing wrong with the cannon itself.
It was just a lot of bubbles in the price, and the magic cannon itself was not bad even if its cost-effectiveness fell. Matop is a group that prides itself on its quality.
So, this is not a problem caused by a defect. As if to prove it, this time the second magic cannon hit Phoenix directly. This time, it exploded at close range before it even deflected it.
However, the explosion was pushed by the heat and bounced off the Phoenix without being able to reach it. It’s as if an invisible barrier surrounds him and blocks his attacks.
“Basically, the power of the flame it possesses is so strong that it acts as a barrier on its own. This is the king of monsters. Sir, I am the king of monsters. If we could just kill that with magic cannons, our magic tower would have mass-produced cannons and occupied the continent.”
So the opponent was very bad. The opponent is innately located at the apex of the ecosystem.
Humans can get what they can only get by training through the effort of cutting bones, and they can get what they get by grinding their feathers as they grow up. It is inherently unfair. Even though he’s standing still like that, he’s been a target, but he hasn’t been able to get a valid hit yet.
“Are you still there? I feel like my head is going to explode right now!”
It was the same as the Artabus did not suffer any damage, but it was ultimately due to Cardinal Omen’s tearful struggle.
Aside from the output of the sky stone, there is a limit to the human mind. Leading this large ship and making an evasive maneuver was not something to be done for a long time.
“Wait.”
The pope ignored his murmurings, in fact, his screams with a single word.
“It’s waiting. Until the time comes.”
“When will that time come? After all my hair is gone?”
“Well, seeing that you have the energy to joke, I guess I can wait a little longer.”
Everything must be considered. air. temperature. atmospheric flow. Brain flow…
The Pope was almost certain. That guy is looking down on humans so much right now. You can tell by watching them spread their wings and shoot only flame bullets while being careless.
It will be. The human beings he has seen so far are insignificant and fleeting beings who only escape or lose their lives in front of them. There is only one chance to break through that carelessness.
Even rats bite the cat when cornered. It was so obvious what would happen if that guy felt his life in danger and became impatient again. Wounded beasts are scary, but what about a wounded phoenix?
‘It’s fortunate that the battlefield is uninhabited.’
Fireballs fell to the floor and exploded with a bang. The volcanic ash that had already piled up rose up and jumped up to the point of reaching Lake Artabus. If such an attack had occurred in places like Vales City or the Islands, it would have been a living hell as its name suggests.
Up to that updraft was under the Pope’s account. After all, everything that ascends to heaven belongs to heaven. The Pope chanted a prayer to the scorching heat that permeated everywhere.
“O heavenly deity. Our Heavenly Lord, who covets the sky. Call the north wind to drive away the fire, and take away the scorching heat. May the flowing wind find no stability, and let the still anxiety persist.”
As if in response to the prayer, a stream of cold air began to flow downwards from beyond the stratosphere. The scorching heat rose upward. The pope’s divine power flowed with the heavenly atmosphere, hissing and the wind rushing in from all directions.
The antagonism between cold and heat intensified, and turbulence swept everywhere. The ashes opened and the blue sky was covered with dark clouds this time. The dark clouds swallowed up by the rising wind on the warm energy, sprinkling rain and lightning in all directions.
“Weather Control?!”
The chief mage of the Martial Tower Headquarters, Corinnell, exclaimed.
“Oh, no. this, this is…”
Even the highest level of magic, Weather Control, is all the change that a brief rain on a clear sky can call. However, this was beyond that level. At the center of the thunderstorm, the wind rose in the shape of an elongated dragon.
Yongoreum soared, swallowing the heat of the heated ground, but it started to spin faster and faster. Only then did Phoenix feel that something was wrong, and he patted the ground and looked at the ground.
“Praise the storm! You wrong thing, be torn away by the wind!”
There was a tornado so big that the big phoenix looked small. The diameter was already large enough to be measured in kilometers rather than meters. The wind swallowed and sucked up everything on the ground.
All that was left behind was ashes, so the ashes mixed into the wind and gave color to the wind that was supposed to be colorless.
A hazy gray wind blew across the Phoenix, and it was no longer in place, swept away by the wind.
“The bereavement will come here!”
As the pope raised his fist and slammed it down, a streak of lightning flashed from among the rotating, frictional clouds. From cloud to cloud. back from cloud to cloud.
Each time it moved between the dark clouds, the lightning got stronger and thicker. Each time the lightning grew louder, the thunder from all directions subsided. Even the lightning that was supposed to strike locally had lost its power and could no longer be seen.
“Oh, oh!”
The Doge admired it, and the Alderhyr priests saw a thunderbolt in the sky with astonished eyes. Now he saw a pillar of lightning that had grown so large that it almost covered the entire phoenix.
No, was their pope that great? Everyone looked at Nergal with awe and respect. Cardinal, even Omen kept their mouths shut for now.
“Get off!”
With Noh Ho-seong, lightning finally struck. It is not a lightning bolt, but rather a fist from the heavens. A pillar of divine and responsive lightning wrapped around the whole phoenix, glowing. The light was so strong that for a moment no one could open their eyes.
“this…!”
But at the same time, the pope clicked his tongue. he muttered bitterly.
“I don’t think you’ve lost your mind at all, but do you mean that my strength is not enough?”
have you been distracted? no. The carelessness would have been done by that guy. However, it failed to destroy it with one blow.
Where the lightning had gone, a phoenix, now almost white, was seen. An energy that no one had ever seen before springed up from within. It was already surrounded by white flames and burning brightly.
“What, is he literally immortal?”
“That guy isn’t fine either. His attack went well.”
Omen, I don’t know how long it has been since he called me, but he honored the Pope.
However, he did not let go of the hand holding the stone and turned the bow. He pierced the wind as fast as he could, and began to move away from Phoenix.
“The problem is that it didn’t kill him, it just raised awareness. No matter how immortal they are… unless their powers are infinite, such a thing is unreasonable!”
No words were heard after that. Because the sound that no one had ever heard before erased all the other noises. Everyone felt the extreme heat. A heat wave swept the world.
Even the tornado was pushed away by the heat and shattered and disappeared, and even the clouds evaporated and dispersed into water vapor. The humid atmosphere became as dry as a desert. After a while, a panting bird appeared where all the light and heat had disappeared.
– Kuruk! 🙋🏻♀️
Is it because of the heavenly shield that the heavenly gods gave? Or is the distance too far to transmit the power? Anger filled the eyes of the monster when he saw the Artabus, which had been scorched, but managed to keep his shape and escaped.
No one has ever pushed this bird to this level. Such a disastrous loss was the first feathered body!
oh oh oh…
Smoke rose from his body, and the flames were extinguished, revealing his feathers. The phoenix was no longer a flaming bird, it was just a big bird.
Incandescent is something that even Phoenix cannot use arbitrarily, and the energy consumption is truly terrible. But, whatever it is.
– Crook.
Not one mutant monkey can underestimate himself. never.
The eyes of the poisonous bird looked at the woman standing in front of him as if he had waited for this moment.
“Come on.”
A woman holding a sword imbued with the power of the moon with both hands, ready to wield it at any time.
Roka no longer runs away when faced with any enemy.
