Chapter 258: Liyue's Military Might (Please Subscribe!!)

"Woo!!!"

A triumphant horn sound rose around the arena, followed immediately by a Liyue-style, rousing symphony filling the entire field. (Background music from the Osial Weekly Boss, instrumental version).

As the music began, the earth suddenly started to tremble.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

In the distance, the sound of orderly footsteps gradually approached; then, a group of soldiers clad in gold and silver armor formed square after square, marching in perfect unison along the passage before the high platform.

The Thousand Stone spears in their hands radiated a sharp, cold gleam, and in their eyes, killing intent coalesced.

These soldiers were elite troops forged through repeated campaigns to purge demons!

The sky-piercing aura of evil also made the gods on the high platform sit upright.

"This is... the Thousand Stone Army that Liyue takes pride in~!"

Raiden Makoto murmured; she had thought that the naval soldiers Jiang Yan led when he went to Inazuma were already the elites of their nation.

But when she saw the Thousand Stone Army and the momentum radiating from them, she knew.

She was utterly mistaken.

The soldiers Jiang Yan led when Liyue visited the six nations were merely ordinary troops; the true elite force had never even been shown.

Even the God of War, who champions warfare, couldn't help but click his tongue upon seeing the Thousand Stone Army.

Back then, Jiang Yan led five thousand ordinary Thousand Stone Minlin Army troops and routed the elite forces of Natlan, making them flee in panic.

If the elite soldiers in the formation before her were used instead, the God of War dared not imagine what the scene would be like.

The other gods also marveled at the mighty military might of the Liyue nation.

"Approaching us now are five formations composed of the Liyue Thousand Stone Army!"

"They respectively represent Liyue's five major military regions: the Thousand Stone Guizhong Army, the Thousand Stone Qingce Army, the Thousand Stone Tianheng Army, the Thousand Stone Minlin Army, and the Thousand Stone Lisha Army!"

"They maintain peace on the Liyue lands, guard the stability of the borders, and lay a solid foundation for the peaceful and happy lives of the Liyue people!"

Jiang Yan continued introducing the armies in the formations; at this moment, the soldier leading the front of the military formation suddenly shouted loudly.

"All units, attention!"

"Forty-five degrees, turn left!"

The formation before them moved in perfect unison; all Thousand Stone Army soldiers, like robots, received the order and turned their heads sharply toward the high platform without stopping their steps.

"The Five Thousand Stone Armies greet the Emperor and the Immortals!"

"Thousand Stone is firm, the heavy barrier does not shift!"

With the leader's loud shout, all the Thousand Stone Army soldiers held their upright spears before their chests and shouted in unison.

"Thousand Stone is firm, the heavy barrier does not shift!"

"Thousand Stone is firm, the heavy barrier does not shift!"

Accompanying the shouts, the momentum of the Thousand Stone Army was like thunder from the nine heavens, shaking the clouds apart!

Countless common people around revealed expressions of pride.

Look, these are our Liyue soldiers!

With such an elite force, how could our nation possibly have unrest!

Jiang Yan raised his hand high above his head and saluted the crowd of the Thousand Stone Army!

As the Thousand Stone Army passed the high platform, a series of long cries emerged over the sea, attracting the attention of everyone nearby.

On the rippling sea surface, a warship first broke the silence of the sea, charging straight ahead.

Following closely behind were countless warships of the same size appearing in succession, forming a triangular formation and charging forward.

These warships were densely packed, like a pack of wolves on the sea, with a mighty momentum that made hearts tremble.

Immediately, a melodious horn sounded again.

Behind these warships, a massive ship suddenly appeared.

This massive ship was more than three times larger than the surrounding vessels; on its deck stood soldiers clad in cyan-gold armor.

Then, countless more warships appeared, firmly guarding the massive ship at the center.

The newcomers were none other than one of Liyue's three major fleets: the Tianheng Fleet!

"Now passing before us is one of Liyue's three major fleets, the Tianheng Fleet!"

"They guard the peace of our Liyue maritime borders and escort our people traveling by sea!"

"Their protection is a powerful guarantee for our maritime trade!"

Jiang Yan spoke loudly, and the common people around erupted in excited cheers.

On the Tianheng, the captain stood straight, facing the high platform, and shouted loudly:

0 ·Request Flowers· ······

"The Tianheng Fleet greets the Emperor and the Immortals!"

"May Liyue prosper for ten thousand ages!"

At the same time, on warships large and small, almost all soldiers simultaneously placed their right hands on their chests and shouted loudly:

"May Liyue prosper for ten thousand ages!"

After the soldiers finished shouting, the captain turned around and made a hand signal.

"All under the Tianheng Fleet!"

"Fire the cannons!"

"Fire the cannons!!!"

The flag officer of the Tianheng issued a flag signal; almost on all ships, the Lady Guizhong ship-mounted cannons and energy-concentrating cannons began to glow.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Accompanying several booming explosions, countless beams were launched from the warships; like a meteor shower, they crashed onto the distant sea surface, triggering countless explosions.

.......... 0

The spectacular scene of the warships firing in unison made every commoner present tremble.

Even some children covered their ears in fright, tears shimmering in their eyes.

This caused the faces of the servants of Snezhnaya, Natlan, and Fontaine to change, aside from the three nations of Inazuma, Mondstadt, and Sumeru that had already witnessed Liyue's naval might.

Such a level of bombardment would be terrifying firepower capable of destroying an entire region in any nation!

Unless a god personally intervened, even they, these servants of the gods, would struggle to avoid serious injury if they took the field.

After the navy passed, countless roars came from the distance.

"According to what Jiang Yan said about the grand parade of the army, navy, and air force, the army and navy have already appeared..."

The Hydro Archon of Fontaine murmured.

"Then what is appearing now must be the air force."
