I rely on myself

Chapter 339 Helpless?

Just as Arthur, Karna and Xiang Yu were worrying about the distortion of space around Daedalus, Edmund in the bridge finally came to his senses.

Watching the slash that had completely disappeared in the window, Edmund spread his hands, covered his face with his five fingers, lowered his head and laughed coldly.

“…Hehe…Hehehe…!?”

"Your Highness!?"

Seeing Edmund like this, General Guredan couldn't help but call out in worry.

“…Hehehe…Ahahahahahaha…”

This shout was like turning on a switch, and Edmund let out an extremely shrill laugh that kept echoing in the empty bridge, sounding extremely cold.

General Guredan was startled by the cold laughter and didn't know what to do, but Edmund didn't need him to say anything.

"...Hahaha, that was a close call. If I hadn't asked Daedalus to activate the magic circuit before descending just in case, that single blow would have been enough to bring down this unsinkable battleship. It was truly dangerous."

While talking about the pupil technique, Edmund raised his head and took his hands away at the same time. Unlike the relief he expressed in his words, his face was ferocious at this moment, and there was a faint sound of gritting teeth.

Contrary to what he said, Edmund was furious at the fact that he was almost shot down.

Because he was just a little bit away from losing his life, this man who thought he was the king of the world, this experience and reality was certainly unacceptable to such an extremely proud man like him.

The laughter just now was not caused by any emotion of relief, but was a cold laugh that came from Edmund's extreme anger.

At this moment, Edmund had only one thought in his mind, which was to completely dismantle these three extremely annoying dolls into parts.

"Daedalus!!"

Edmund called out to the warship under his control in a cold tone.

"Don't be stingy, prepare all your guns, and smash those three puppets to pieces until not even a single part is left!!!"

After receiving the master's order, Daedalus immediately executed it. All the guns of all sizes on the battleship moved at the same time and pointed in the same direction, and then——

"Boom, boom, boom..."

All the gun ports began firing, and with deafening and even continuous roars, shells flew out of the barrels and moved towards the target like thunder.

Of course, Daedalus's actions could not be hidden from Xiang Yu and others. They had already reacted when the cannon was aimed at them.

Karna once again took a defensive stance, and his two sun-shaped shoulder armors emitted golden light like the sun.

The next moment, the bombardment arrived. Each shell had amazing power. The surrounding houses were only affected by the aftermath of the explosion. They were directly destroyed and collapsed by the shock wave generated by the explosion. However, such a powerful continuous bombardment could not hurt Xiang Yu and his men.

Because the light released from Karna's shoulder armor was like a substance, forming an extremely solid wall of light that completely isolated all attacks.

Violent vibrations and deafening roars continued to be heard, indicating that the bombardment was still continuing, but the other side of the light wall where Arthur, Karna and Xiang Yu were located was not damaged, forming a sharp contrast.

Arthur was the first to speak up as he watched the continuous bombardment destroying the city through the light wall. "This is not a solution. Although Karna's Sun Wheel Armor blocked the bombardment, we can't do anything about that battleship."

"But the current situation is that we don't have the means to break through that distorted space. Although in terms of strength alone, any one of the three of us is confident that we can easily capture that battleship."

Xiang Yu on the side told Arthur about their helpless situation. Hearing this, Arthur's face twitched, but he didn't say anything in the end, because it was indeed the fact. Arthur had to turn around and ask Karna who was defending.

"Karna, how are you doing? If you can't hold on, let me take over."

"No, it's not necessary. Although the attack is very fierce, it is far from enough to break through the defense of the Sun Wheel Armor. Even if it can last for a day, it will not be a problem. What is more important now is to find a way to break through the distorted space. Otherwise, if this battle continues to drag on, it will not be good for Lin Yuan's goal."

Hearing this, Arthur and Xiang Yu looked at each other. They both thought that Karna was right, but the current situation was that they had no way to deal with it.

Just when the three felt helpless, a voice sounded in their minds.

"Although the distorted space is indeed very powerful, if you say you have no way to deal with it, then you are underestimating my skills and yourselves."

“Lin Yuan!?”

Xiang Yu recognized the sudden voice that sounded in his mind, but then he was attracted by the content of the voice and asked Lin Yuan: "What do you mean by we have a solution? You should have seen my surprise attack just now, it was useless."

Although Xiang Yu was a little surprised that Lin Yuan's voice suddenly sounded in his mind, that was all. After all, they were still Lin Yuan's automatic puppets. Instead, he was curious about what Lin Yuan said about the three of them having a way to break through the distorted space.

When Lin Yuan heard the question, he explained directly: "Although this distorted space seems to have no solution, it is ultimately achieved through magic."

"What do you mean?"

Although Lin Yuan explained, Xiang Yu still didn't understand the meaning.

However, Arthur understood it instantly and said, "You mean that although the distorted space can forcibly change the direction of all external attacks, making the attacks unable to hit, there is still an upper limit to the attacks it can withstand. As long as the intensity of the attacks we release exceeds the upper limit that the distorted space can withstand, we can force a breakthrough, right?"

"That's right. After all, although space magic looks very advanced, it is still a kind of magic. That distorted space is only formed by some kind of magic, so there is still an upper limit to the attacks it can withstand."

While Lin Yuan was pleased that someone finally reacted, he also told the secret of the space magic. After knowing the secret, it was naturally not difficult for Arthur and others to break through that space.
