Chapter 278

"Don't panic, everyone, release your barriers and protect yourselves!"

As the water fell and the crisis loomed, Volod acted—he swept his right hand, and countless vines erupted from the ground, surging upward to intertwine into a vast net that blocked the falling tidal wave!

Boom—!

The tidal wave crashed against the giant vine net.

As the entire vine net absorbed the tidal wave's impact, it also rapidly pressed downward.

Though the vine net, riddled with gaps, could not fully halt the tidal wave, it immediately lessened its force.

The water that slipped through the gaps had been diverted, and below, other mages each cast spells to block the surging waves of diverted water.

Puhong—!

Meanwhile, under Serena's magic, the Fapingyi Society had burst through the sea surface.

"They're out!"

Water scattered downward, and for the first time again, the blue sky came into view—the soaked mages felt as if they had survived a near-death ordeal.

Everything happened too fast—from the appearance of the black hole, to the water falling, to the flooding—less than a minute had passed.

So much so that everyone felt a dazed illusion, as if what had just occurred were a mirage—but the black hole hovering in midair, still spewing seawater, reminded them it was real.

Centered on the Fapingyi Society rising from the water, tens of thousands of meters around had been submerged, and as seawater continued to pour down, the flooded area kept spreading and expanding.

Within tens of thousands of meters, only the Fapingyi Society's less-than-one-thousand-square-meter patch of land remained!

Gazing at the Yang before them, everyone around stood frozen, eyes filled with bewilderment.

But at that moment, a booming voice rang out,

"All units, stand alert—the war isn't over! The enemy is coming!"

Through magical transmission, Volod's voice spread across the entire Fapingyi Society, pulling them back from shock into reality.

Almost as soon as Volod's resentful words fell, a tremendous explosion erupted on the sea surface—a massive ship surged from the deep ocean, sending up waves that rained down like a deluge.

The giant bubble enveloping the ship also revealed how the Bai Huzi Pirates' vessels navigated the deep sea.

And this ship was none other than the Bai Huzi Pirates' flagship, the Moby Dick!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

After the flagship Moby Dick of the Bai Huzi Pirates appeared, the sea continued to churn violently.

Immediately after, two smaller ships—slightly smaller than the Moby Dick—emerged from the sea on either side, like escorts.

As the three warships surfaced, it was still not over—around the Fapingyi Society, more ships kept bursting from the water.

With the Moby Dick as the main assault, a circular encirclement formed, completely surrounding the Fapingyi Society.

"So they've finally shown themselves?"

Gulan Doma, gazing at the distant giant vessel resembling a Bai Jing, spoke in a low tone.

"I've never seen an invasion method like this," Volod said grimly, staring at the approaching ships.

Though both of our Heavenly Kings acted together to neutralize this surprise attack, it cannot be denied that even after resolving it, our morale suffered a severe blow.

Under this impact, which felt like the end of a world, even I was deeply shaken—let alone the other mages.

Through magical perception, he sensed his own mages' morale had sunk into despair.

As he thought of this, just as the Fapingyi Society's spirit waned, all the giant bubbles surrounding the Moby Dick burst open.

Beneath the bubbles, fourteen figures stood on the ship's bow.

First Division Captain, Phoenix—Marke

Third Division Captain, Diamond—George

Fifth Division Captain, Flower Sword—Bisitata

……

Thud!

Thud! Thud!

As the division captains appeared, a heavy thumping sound echoed in everyone's ears—every single person, at that moment, felt their breath catch slightly!

A towering figure emerged, wielding a terrifyingly long naginata, draped in a white cloak, his chest covered in scars that inspired awe—

These were the victories of the strongest man in the world, his glory!

"Fapingyi Society, is my beloved son alright?"
