Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 193 The New Siren Tribe, Sakura Kingdom Suffers Heavy Losses

This coastline of Xibo City was the main battlefield for the Sakura Kingdom to resist the sea monsters.

For five consecutive days, they did not see the sea monsters attack.

However, on the evening of the fifth day, some sea monsters that were completely different from the ones before attacked them.

The arrival was none other than the Atlantic Siren Legion.

At this time, under the leadership of the Sea-Suppressing Spirit Beast Emperor, they had completely ruled this sea area.

Qin Xiaonan ordered them not to attack Feiniao City in China, but did not restrict the other side.

The twilight in Xibo City is always accompanied by a salty sea breeze. As the setting sun dyes the coastline blood red, the military strategist Yuta Kobayashi on the watchtower is recording the day's tranquility.

Suddenly, the pen in his hand fell to the ground.

"Is the sea surface glowing?"

Three kilometers from the coastline, the seawater suddenly glowed with an eerie, ghostly blue fluorescence.

The light spread outwards at an astonishing speed, illuminating the entire sea area in the blink of an eye.

Even more frightening is that the sea level is dropping at a visible rate—as if some enormous creature is sucking water from the seabed.

"Woo-woo-"

Meanwhile, in the distance, a young fire mage named Nakajima stood on the breakwater, a flickering flame burning in his palm, illuminating his slightly tired face.

The calm of the past few days made him somewhat complacent, and he even began to doubt whether his seniors' concerns were unnecessary.

"Hey, Nakajima, stop spacing out!" His companion patted him on the shoulder. "You've changed shifts, go take a break."

Nakajima nodded and was about to turn and leave when suddenly he stopped in his tracks.

Something's wrong with the sea in the distance.

It wasn't the natural movement of the tides, but a strange, regular fluctuation, as if the entire ocean was being controlled by some force.

“Wait… what’s that?” He squinted and pointed to the horizon where the sea meets the sky.

His companion followed his gaze and his expression changed drastically.

“Enemy attack—!!!”

The piercing alarm ripped through the night sky, and the mages along the entire defensive line quickly assembled.

However, when the first wave crashed onto the shore, everyone was stunned.

That wasn't the siren they had anticipated.

As the waves receded, countless monstrous figures were revealed—they had streamlined bodies similar to mermaids, but their skin was covered with dark blue scales, their backs were covered with white bone spikes, and their hands were sharp pincers that gleamed coldly under the searchlight.

What is most chilling are their eyes—four eerie blue compound eyes that flicker like will-o'-the-wisps in the twilight, devoid of any emotion, only pure bloodlust.

"What...what kind of monster is this?" Nakajima's voice trembled slightly.

No one could answer him.

Because the next second, the entire coastline collapsed!
"Boom——!!!"

A hundred-meter-high wave suddenly rose up without warning, and thousands of pincers stood on the crest of the wave. They swung their pincers in unison, cutting precise patterns on the wave wall—this was a standard legion-level combat formation!
"Abyssal Executioners!" Behind the defensive line, an elderly military mage exclaimed in shock, "These are killing machines from the depths of the Atlantic! Each one is a top-tier warrior-level demon, how could they appear in the Pacific?!"

The first wave of the wall crashed down like the sky collapsing, instantly crushing the three towers into ruins. Ordinary buildings are as fragile as paper in the face of such immense force.

The second wave followed closely, and this time, something even more terrifying lurked within it—

Semi-transparent jellyfish-like creatures float in the air, their bodies crystal clear, like ghosts, their tentacles swaying gently in the wind, emitting infrasound waves beyond the range of human hearing.

The Siren - Shadow Singer is extremely rare and specializes in sonic attacks.

"Ah—! My head!!!"

The military mages on the defensive line fell in droves, rolling on the ground clutching their ears, blood seeping from their eyes, ears, noses, and mouths. The sonic attack directly shattered their internal organs, and the automatic defense arrays on the breakwater exploded one after another under the high-frequency vibrations, sending sparks flying.

"Activate the soundproof barrier! Now!" the commander roared.

Several sonic mages gritted their teeth and stepped forward, attempting to use the sound barrier to defend themselves, but the Shadow Singer's sonic frequency far exceeded their defensive limits.

In just three seconds, their eardrums ruptured, and they collapsed to their knees in agony.

The defenses collapsed completely.

However, the disaster had only just begun.

On the sea surface, huge whirlpools appeared one after another, with diameters exceeding 100 meters, resembling the gaping maw of an abyss.

Even more terrifying is that these vortexes sprayed out high-pressure water jets, like giant water cannons, instantly piercing through the second line of defense!
"What happened?!" Nakajima scrambled to his feet, watching helplessly as the water column pierced through a wind mage, spraying blood onto the ruins.

“Whirlpool sea monsters… they’re manipulating the water!” a water mage cried out in despair.

Although the Sakura Kingdom had fought against the sea monsters for many years and accumulated a lot of experience, they knew nothing about these demons that had appeared at this moment!
The Abyss Executioner, the Shadow Singer, the Whirlpool Sea Beast... these terrifying creatures from the Atlantic Ocean were completely beyond their comprehension.

In a very short time, two lines of defense had been completely torn apart.

"Retreat! Retreat to the third line of defense!" the commander roared, issuing the order.
Nakajima gritted his teeth, and flames reignited in his palms, but his magic seemed so insignificant in the face of the overwhelming swarm of sea monsters.

"Is...it really all over?"

Just as despair was spreading, a dazzling bolt of lightning suddenly lit up the sky—

"That's... a higher-level magic?!"

The reinforcements finally arrived.

The lightning-type super-tier magic, [Lightning Ring Punishment - Twelve Lightning Punishments], crashed down.

Each bolt of lightning contained earth-shattering power, and when they fell simultaneously, the entire sea instantly boiled!
"Hiss! Hiss!"

The executioners of the abyss let out a shrill scream; their proud, hard scales were as thin as paper before the lightning.

The siren at the very front was struck by lightning, leaving not even a trace behind.

The siren in the back row was pierced by a violent electric current, its eerie blue compound eyes bursting in the intense light, and its pincers melting and deforming in the high temperature.

The massive wave wall was blasted open, creating a gap in it.

A tall, slender figure walked towards them from a distance.

The deep purple mage robes fluttered in the sea breeze, and his short black hair stood out strikingly in the lightning.

Most striking is the lightning bolt-shaped scar above his right eye.

He didn't speak, but just stared indifferently at the sea.

He raised his right hand slightly, and his fingertips danced with terrifying lightning.

Just when everyone thought the situation was about to turn around—

“Gurgle. Gurgle.”

The sea surface suddenly boiled, countless bubbles burst as if boiling, and a giant vortex with a diameter of more than 800 meters expanded wildly under the thunderclouds.

The seawater was pulled by some terrifying force, forming a funnel-shaped abyss.

At the center of the vortex, a dark shadow that blots out the sky slowly rises up—the monarch-level demon lord among the giant vortex sea beasts, the giant vortex lord has finally appeared!
Its massive body resembles a moving underwater mountain range, with ancient rune-like grooves covering its dark blue carapace.

Facing the churning thunderclouds in the sky, it let out a disdainful hum, while simultaneously stirring up the seawater, instantly creating hundreds of ocean whirlpools ranging from tens to hundreds of meters in diameter!
They twisted and roared, like giant sea serpents swarming toward the coastline.

Wherever it passed, breakwaters were uprooted and buildings were torn apart like building blocks.

"Boom boom boom——"
