Man on the ark, forced to become king

When this man appeared, she was surprised to see a fleeting look of longing and respect on Skadi's simple-minded face, which was extremely rare.

Could it be a powerful figure on land who could make Skadi show such an expression?

The leader of the Golden Tree... it sounds like the leader of some organization. Considering Skadi's amazing magic that she could conjure up horns and wings out of thin air, Laurentina was genuinely curious.

In the deep sea, Skadi didn't know any of these things. Not to mention her, even the captains of the various squadrons couldn't use magic. This involved the deep-sea hunters' physical constitution and some deeper reasons.

Once on land, Skadi was able to use magic?

"I am now a Forge Knight of the Golden Tree, similar to the concept of the Agor elite force. He is our leader and the one who gave me new life. Even the sea god we once defeated cannot compare to him."

Skadi solemnly explained to Laurentina, her usually calm face displaying a complex expression Laurentina had never seen before, leaving the hunter girl stunned.

"A being stronger than the Sea God? Are there such figures on land...?"

"It's just an empty name."

Although Skadi's voice was very soft, the passageway was only so wide, so it was impossible for Lin Lu to hear the two girls' conversation. He turned his head and smiled slightly at Laurentina, waving his hand modestly, but what he said was anything but modest.

"Poseidon isn't actually that strong; he's definitely no match for me, that's true."

"This……"

Laurentina was speechless for a moment, unsure how to respond.

"...I know a lot of unknown information about the deep sea. If you want to hear it, I will explain it to you in detail later, but not now."

Skadi shook her head slightly. She didn't want to hold a presentation in this environment; she had other things to work on right now.

"Ok."

Laurentina suddenly had a very bad feeling, she couldn't quite put her finger on it, but it made her feel uneasy. She looked at Lin Lu standing with Kal'tsit, trying to glean something from the man.

"The Deep Sea Church, the bishop, the monster—are they just ahead?"

Lin Lu didn't seem to care much about being stared at by the beautiful girl. She turned her head away as if trying to see through the collapsed cave to see what was behind her.

Skadi's collapsed cave was only a short section, not enough to completely block out the sounds from the other side. Standing in the passage, one could still faintly hear friction and collision sounds coming from the other side, making it easy to determine where the enemy was.

"I threw a spark into the monster horde, but we can't control the flame. We can only try to keep them out. I don't know how it went."

Warfarin answered softly, then asked, "With your abilities, you must have a way, right?"

"Of course we need to."

Lin Lu smiled and nodded, raising her arm to flex her wrist, her smile radiating confidence.

"There are indeed some things in this world that I find troublesome, but that definitely does not include a man-made monster. Let me see what it is that has left you helpless."

As he spoke, he stretched out his arm, and the ring on his finger emitted a faint luster.

The next instant, azure light began to converge from all directions, illuminating the not-so-wide passage and merging into a magical vortex resembling a nebula.

Origin Magic: Comet Yazler!

The dark abyss that once seized the mind of the Origin Mage Yazler and instilled fear in him now displays its power in the narrow passage. A beam of magic, its core shimmering with a deep blue hue, bursts forth, smashing through any obstacle in its path with overwhelming force.

Whether it's hard rock or piled-up soil, it crumbles instantly before the beam of light filled with immense power, crushed into the finest dust.

Behind the earth and rocks were hordes of densely packed humanoid monsters and sea creatures born from flesh and blood. They were vaporized the moment the beam of light passed through, and the dense monster tide was cleared to create a straight passage. The other end of Comet Azler passed through the monster tide and struck one of the heads of the giant monster in the middle of the cave, piercing it through. The powerful force even left a deep hole in the cave wall.

"It's disgusting stuff, but the quality is so bad that only the quantity is barely acceptable."

Lin Lu glanced at the strange tide pierced by Comet Azler, frowned slightly, turned her outstretched hand over as if she had grabbed something, clenched her fist, and squeezed it hard.

boom!

The materialized purple energy erupted, spreading outwards with the force of thunder. As the palm clenched and rolled back, the power of gravity filled the cave. The densely packed sea monsters seemed to be pressed down by an invisible force, clinging tightly to the ground.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere, bones shattered. The monstrous tide, which could only suppress the enemy with its sheer numbers, was powerless to resist the unleashed gravity magic. It was forcefully pressed to the ground, its flesh and bones crushed.

The extinguishing fire that the spark spread was also controlled to spread rapidly, stirring up a scorching fire storm that swept across the cave floor, burning the crushed monster remains into fine ashes.

In just a few seconds, the flames burst and dissipated, leaving behind an empty cave. With a wave of her hand, the massive horde of monsters that Kal'tsit and Skadi had been unable to handle was completely wiped out, leaving only a giant monster whose body had swelled further and whose head had been smashed.

That's it, it's over?

Laurentina, who had never seen anything like this before, was stunned, her shock evident on her face.

So many sea creatures and mutated monsters vanished into thin air just as that man opened and closed his palm?

This is practically an unrealistic joke.

Could our captain do that?

Before this, Laurentina's strongest person was her superior, the captain of the Deep Sea Hunter Team Two, Grandia. Her strength was far greater than that of ordinary Deep Sea Hunters. When she swung her long spear, she could also create extremely exaggerated whirlpools, or even sea tornadoes.

If she were here, perhaps she could do it too?

For some reason, Laurentina seemed a little insecure.

The main point is that this man named Lin Lu used such an attack as easily as swatting a fly, without showing the slightest sign of fatigue.

It was as if this attack was just something he did on a whim. That's terrifying.

"Is that the thing?"

Lin Lu didn't know what the hunter girl was thinking, nor did he pay attention to what was behind him. He walked straight out through the passage that had been re-blasted open by Comet Azle, raised his head, and looked up and down at the enormous monster.

Kal'tsit was right. This level of monster didn't even require her, the leader of the Golden Tree, to personally intervene. If it weren't for the enormous number of monsters, Skadi might have been able to chop this seemingly powerful monster to death herself.

This thing looks very big, but it's actually all bark and no bite. It has a huge body, but it can't exert the power that matches it.

However, since she was already there and had personally used her magic, Lin Lu didn't mind doing a little more.

He not only wants to do it, but he also wants to make a big splash.

Kal'tsit previously stated that the Church of the Deep Sea has taken control of Saltwind City, so dealing with a single monster is no longer very meaningful; to solve the problem, it is necessary to address the root cause.

It's time for the Deep Sea Church's rule in Saltwind City to end. Now that they've come here, Saltwind City should belong to the Golden Tree.

In the empty cave after the monster sea was eliminated, azure magical runes lit up out of thin air and took shape.

Under the watchful eyes of Kal'tsit and the others, countless tiny streams of light flowed out from the void, swirling and intertwining like a galaxy, converging together to create a moon inside the cave.

As the surrounding light continued to blend in, the newly formed 'moon' rapidly expanded, its bright moonlight illuminating the somewhat dim cave.

Magic: Renara's Full Moon!

This is the symbol of Queen Kalia, a magical manifestation of the full moon that Queen Renara of the Full Moon glimpsed in her childhood, which once conquered the entire magic academy.

All the magic in the academy was utterly ineffective against the full moon.

Lani also knows this move, but what she summons is a cold dark moon, which naturally possesses the attribute of frost, and the condensed form is smaller.

For some subtle reasons, this time, Lin Lu did not use the Dark Moon that Lani possessed, but instead chose the Full Moon Queen Renara's Full Moon.

The monsters in the cave were no threat; he planned to let this full moon from another world rise over Saltwind City.

Chapter 240 Lin Lu: A Little Awkward

What is the nature of magic?

There are countless solutions to this problem.

The mages at the Realucaria Magic Academy have a systematic set of radiant stone magic that can explain the spells they see, while the mages of the Seria Magic Town also have another unique set of spell comprehensions.

In the world of Terra, various countries have conducted targeted research on Originium Arts, which has also led to the evolution of various schools of thought.

But regardless of the theory, in Lin Lu's eyes, the essence of magic and prayer is to first construct a basic framework, then fill it with energy and other structures, allowing the gathered energy to change and extend in the direction desired, ultimately presenting the external magical effect.

Full moon magic is no exception.

Even though this spell was an extremely powerful magic that the Full Moon Queen, the hero who once ruled Lake Lienia, comprehended from the moon in the heavens, and had approached or even reached the level of 'Origin Magic', it still could not escape its most basic essence.

Therefore, if one can accurately control and stabilize the structure of the spell one has created, one can try to enlarge the structure that constitutes the magic and fill it with more energy. The outward manifestation of this is that the original spell becomes larger and its power increases with the continuous injection of energy.

However, due to her lack of proficiency in the Full Moon spell, Lin Lu's speed in using this technique on Renara's Full Moon was significantly slower than when using other prayers and spells.

But it's already amazing enough.

In Laurentina's eyes, the man's arm held up a bright moon above his head. The moon's size rapidly expanded from less than half a person's height to several meters in diameter, and it was still expanding at a rapid pace. The powerful energy fluctuations and the ever-increasing sense of threat made her involuntarily hold her breath. She even recalled the destructive weapons she had seen in Agor.

However, the Agor army's highly destructive weapons are all technologically advanced and each one is extremely valuable. They are not used lightly, and the one who used this spell now is just one person.

This is... the leader of the Golden Tree?

It can only be said that he is the man who made Skadi show that kind of expression. His individual strength alone is comparable to Agor's army. This kind of strength has completely surpassed the Deepsea Hunters.

Thinking back to that question, she could say with certainty that even her captain couldn't reach that level.

The power of deep-sea hunters is ultimately only reflected in their physical abilities, and there are limits to it.

As for this man, she couldn't see the limit yet. The expanding magical moon continued to grow as she pondered, displaying unparalleled oppressive power, as if even the air became viscous because of its presence.

The monster that devoured the bishop of the deep-sea church attempted to attack and destroy the magical moon with its tentacles, slime, and poisonous mist. However, the tentacles were torn apart by an incredibly solidified energy as soon as they got close, the slime was easily decomposed, and the poisonous mist, which could affect the nervous system, could not even get close. It was dispersed by the residual waves spreading out from the moon.

The monster's attacks were as powerless as children before the bright moon that illuminated the cave.

"He must be the strongest land dweller, right? Such power is terrifying..."

Laurentina couldn't help but mutter to herself, which drew a sneer from Warfarin.

"That's true, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. What you've seen is only the tip of the iceberg of Boss Lin's strength. This level is far from his limit."

"what?"
