Colonia Storm Tour

Here's a recommendation for a really energetic Stormringer Remix, made by a Bilibili creator. The video ID is 18035951.

Hmm, it's rare for the writing to go so smoothly, hence the long chapter of nine thousand words.

Chapter 10 Stormbringer (RYUSA MIX) - 2

The Shrew Air Defense Nest, which had lost its drones, replenished them with six Golden Arrow rockets within a minute. Receiving and recovering the Shrew Air Defense Nest with drones did not require rebuilding and transporting the Shrew Air Defense Nest; it only needed to replenish the Golden Arrow rockets and recharge them. Once all the Shrew Air Defense drones were ready, under Odin's control, these Shrew Air Defense drones, which had been assigned targets, once again flew like a flock of birds toward the direction from which the subsonic cruise missiles were coming.

The first line of air defense on Jost Vandak Island consisted of Magician and Shrike air defense drones. Now that the Magicians have returned to base for rest, only the Shrike air defense drones are taking center stage.

Intercepting these cruise missiles, which lack heavy armor and are supersonic, is not difficult for the Shrew air defense drone. So, seeing the explosions and booming sounds, the cruise missiles were shot down and automatically detonated into a dazzling firework, without any valuable results.

The failure of the first round of missile bombardment was expected by Vice Admiral Forrest Crest, who was on the USS Lincoln aircraft carrier 800 kilometers away.

"Our Magician and Bondsky failed to gain the upper hand in today's battle. Do not send out aircraft for bombing. Please make preparations according to the instructions."

Mr. Hardman’s voice appeared in the command room for a moment and then disappeared.

"Forrestal, thankfully we were smart enough not to send the lads out to bomb without proper preparation."

Colonel Kallit Pierce said with relief.

"Yes... Otherwise, it would be a nightmare to have fighter jets with nothing but two air-to-air missiles dealing with those incredibly agile drones."

Vice Admiral Forrestal looked at the nautical chart and said, "Don't bother firing the Tomahawks; launching them now would just be a waste."

"Lieutenant General? Is it really okay for us to do nothing?"

"A staff member asked."

"What can we do besides take orders and drop bombs on the island..."

Vice Admiral Forrestal will continue to monitor the nautical charts.

The Lincoln carrier strike group, now relegated to a passive role, completely abandoned its offensive operations and focused on building an air defense perimeter; there was nothing else to do.

Meanwhile, Elaine, far away in England, also received reports of the unfavorable situation in the war.

"William Hanson G. Emilton is seriously wounded, and Cormier El Nisha W. Ornovsky White is slightly wounded. They are unable to continue fighting for a short time. Today's attack has failed."

Eileen read out the key points of the report.

If the DEM cannot resolve the threat posed by the Ratatosk and Foehn elite magicians, then the invited US Navy aircraft will be unable to complete their mission. As for the B-2 and B-52G launching air-launched cruise missiles, it will be a futile and ineffective effort. Furthermore, they are wary of the Foehn and Ratatosk magicians and dare not openly ride to Yostvandal Island to drop Jesova, SDB, and Paveway. As for the powerful Mother of All Bombs, both the B-2 and B-52 will have to survive long enough to reach the bombing altitude and range.

You should know that in the original work, the magicians, apart from not going into the water to have fun, directly used their random domains to fight in space... Catching these bombers is really not difficult, it's just that because of their speed, you need to be careful about the interception position to ensure a successful interception rather than missing them by too much distance.

"William Hanson G. Emilton is expected to recover his fighting strength in one day, and Cormier El Nisha W. Ornovsky White is expected to recover his fighting strength in one day. We need more elite magicians to support us!"

Eileen looked at the report and realized that it clearly indicated the need for elite magicians to provide reinforcements.

After thinking about the list of the top 10 magicians in Europe, she realized that she might as well roll up her sleeves and take the stage herself.

Because apart from William Hansen and Cormier, who are elite magicians directly under DEM, the rest are scattered in various European countries. It is not easy for DEM to command and mobilize them as they are all tightly controlled by their respective countries. Originally, the company also had a high-level combatant, Takamiya Mana, but she was captured by Fenfeng after the Tibet War and is now completely helpless.

After much thought, the only good idea was for me to drive the Pendragon and fight alongside Cormier to defeat Artemisia.

"That's the only way."

Eileen decided that since the family's elite magician had been beaten so badly by Artemisia, she had to go and fight her, both for personal and professional reasons.

It is worth noting here that Ellen did not notice that the report did not explain why William Hansen was almost decapitated, namely that Cormier was not there to help deal with Artemisia.

In fact, even if the two of them were to work together to deal with Artemisia, it would not be an easy task, because Artemisia also had elite magicians as her companions.

Just as Ellen was considering taking matters into her own hands and having a proper showdown with Artemisia on Jostfandark Island across the water, Foehn changed her overly conservative defensive strategy.

Lin Haiyuan and Youhua Zhizi, each equipped with their own CR-UNIT, entered the conference room, where Colonel Jack, Milia, and Alice on the monitor were already waiting for them.

After everyone took their seats, Alice cleared her throat.

"You all did a great job in the battle this morning. We not only successfully repelled DEM's attack on Yost Vandak Island, but Battalion Commander Artemisia also seriously injured one of DEM's elite magicians, William Hansen, and Political Commissar Hua Zhizi lightly injured DEM's elite magician, Cormier. Now, DEM's elite magicians are unable to be deployed for the time being, and they cannot pose a threat to us again for the time being, in theory."

The theory behind Alice's statement puzzled Colonel Jack.

"Lady Alice, the results of repelling DEM's attack and seriously wounding two elite DEM mages are very encouraging. But why do I say that theoretically DEM cannot pose a threat to us again for the time being?"

Colonel Jack asked, puzzled.

"DEM, which couldn't gain the upper hand in the magician's duel, shouldn't be more than just theoretically incapable of posing a threat to us; it should be too weak to launch an attack on us for the next few days, right?"

Miria Croya shared the same doubts as Colonel Jack.

"Currently, we are able to gain the upper hand over DEM in the island defense battle because DEM only has two elite magicians, while we have three elite magicians who can deal with them. However, as far as we know, among the magicians on the list under DEM's command, even if they lose Takamiya Mana who was deceived by them and Battalion Commander Artemisia, they still have one ace magician who is enough to take on two opponents at once."

Alice looked at everyone present: "Needless to say, that is DEM's Second Executive Director, Ellen Mira Messer. I think the war has gone so badly that she has no choice but to roll up her sleeves and take charge herself."

The three elite magicians mentioned here are only Artemisia, Gardenia, and Charlotte, who can be considered one; Milia of Ratatosk is not included.

"Given that DEM views Ratatosk and Foehn as thorns in its side, it would not be surprising if DEM's second executive minister were to appear on the battlefield."

Colonel Jack nodded.

“If Ellen Mira Messeres appears on the battlefield, it will be hard to say which side the balance of power will tilt to. She can’t come alone; she will probably bring more DEM magicians with her.”

Alice felt that the number of DEM magicians facing the magician troops below would increase dramatically, and with the presence of Bondsky, the US military aircraft would definitely not miss this opportunity to drop bombs and missiles to bombard the ground.

"We were able to repel DEM's attack for the second time, thanks to the great help of the magician girls below. This made the US warplanes wary of our drones and magicians, and they dared not take action. They only dared to launch cruise missiles from a distance to test our defenses. But if the magician troops are too busy to deal with other opponents, the US warplanes will soon appear to bomb them."

Lin Haiyuan said.

"Moreover, we need to take our situation more seriously. DEM has been playing with people's memories relentlessly, and now they intend to replicate their success in China and the United States over us. Look here, everyone."

Alice's image on the monitor was then covered by an unfolding holographic projection, and then appeared in the holographic projection as the Memory Lord's manifestation device in operation on a corner of the island.

"Please do not assume that this evil device that manipulates memories only exists in the United States and Tibet, China. DEM has now been deployed and is operating at Cape Ward, which juts out into the sea from Boutis Island. Although we do not know why the Memory Master's manifestation device has not controlled us after it started operating, it is possible that the input power is insufficient to extend the memory manipulation magic to Jost Vanderk. However, we cannot sit idly by and ignore this manifestation device. Therefore, we must destroy the Memory Master as soon as possible to ensure our safety in this area."

The holographic projection shrank to half size at the end of the sentence and shrunk to Alice's side.

"We must destroy this evil device immediately."

Colonel Jack resolutely blocked the railway.

"If we are controlled by this device that manifests the Lord of Memories, then everything is obviously over, and all our efforts will be in vain."

Milia tensed up as she watched the Lord of Memories working on the monitor.

"Moreover, it seems to be protected by the random field deployed by the Avalon Manifestation Device. It will take us a lot of time to break through the random field when we launch an attack."

For a moment, the gardenia forgot about the existence of the plasma fortress cannon.

"Fortunately, we were already on guard against DEM's tricks, and our plasma fortress cannons have already opened fire."

As Alice spoke, the two plasma fortress cannons mounted on the island's protrusion completed their lock-on mission and immediately opened fire.

With two earth-shattering, lightning-fast firing sounds, the thick, angular plasma beam traveled several kilometers in an instant and struck the arbitrary area protecting the manifestation device of the Lord of Memory.

A single plasma beam from the plasma fortress cannon can vaporize a battleship. The random field, having withstood two strikes from the plasma fortress cannon, was pierced by the plasma beam, creating a large hole. The violently spreading plasma then caused the orderly distribution of magic within the random field to disintegrate. Then, the third plasma beam passed through the collapsing void in the random field and directly struck the Memory Master's manifestation device.

The already fragile Memory Lord Manifestation Device clearly couldn't withstand a single shot from the Plasma Fortress Cannon and collapsed directly under the influence of the raging plasma.

Alice glanced at Lin Haiyuan, her eyes seeming to say, "My hunch was right, wasn't it? You crazy Lin."

Lin Haiyuan, using Artemisia's body, could only nod slightly in response to the screen, rather than replying with a gaze that contained complex messages.

"This is really great! As long as they are within the range of the plasma fortress cannon, it will be futile for DEM to establish any manifestation devices of the Lord of Memories and the Tower of Babel. Their arbitrary domains simply cannot protect those evil devices!"

Colonel Jack cheered.

"In that case, the people of DEM should not dare to show their faces on the ground casually. Once they are discovered, they will soon face annihilation."

Lin Haiyuan added, "However, they are hiding in a sheltered spot, leaving only false targets on the ground, so it's not very meaningful for our plasma fortress cannons to fire."

"Our enemies have also thought of this. Due to the depression angle limitation of our plasma fortress cannons, they are unable to directly strike the DEM buildings and personnel hiding in leeward positions."

Alice was therefore unable to directly use the plasma fortress cannon to wipe out DEM, because shortly after the three battleships were destroyed, before the Avalon main cannon could be fully charged, the DEM members hurriedly hid in the leeward side of the islands and dared not show their faces. Otherwise, there would not have been many defensive problems.

"This level of deterrence is sufficient. If DEM were to bring in the US Army's howitzers and bombard us every day, we would have a real headache."

Gardenia also noticed that DEM did not use conventional artillery to bombard Yost Vandak Island, but instead honestly used the combination of Magician and Bondsky to gain an advantage before launching a fierce attack.

"Their encampment has already taken up too much space; there's simply no room to set up artillery positions to deal with us."

Alice smiled.

"By the way, I remember that the Foehn Wind also has very powerful self-propelled artillery, right? Why not use self-propelled artillery to bombard the DEM's positions?"

The self-propelled artillery that Colonel Jack mentioned here is undoubtedly the kind of tracked self-propelled artillery that his friend had told him about, which is as big as an aircraft carrier.

"Rather than killing the magicians of DEM, we, the Foehn winds, prefer to educate them through political ideology so that they understand DEM's hypocrisy and lies and join the Foehn winds in their fight against DEM. That's why we didn't use plasma cannons to destroy DEM's base."

Alice was explaining things to Colonel Jack.

"Would those DEM magicians really accept Foehn's persuasion so easily? Ratatosk is seen as an incomprehensible madman by DEM, and Foehn is a completely incomprehensible murderer. With such a terrible impression, their persuasion probably won't be easily accepted, especially by the famous Norman team."

Milia thought that ordinary DEM magicians could be persuaded, but those magicians in the magician units with names and titles would not be so easy to persuade, and probably wouldn't even listen.

"We, the Foehnwinds, have our own solutions for this, so please don't worry, gentlemen of Ratatosk."

Alice's smile here seems very mysterious.

"Good news! Good news!"

At that moment, Director Benjamin Fletcher pushed open the conference room door and walked in.

"What good news has you so excited, Benjamin?"

Colonel Jack and the others turned to look at the ecstatic Supervisor Benjamin.

"Oh... I forgot to knock, sorry everyone. The construction of our Fraxinus is progressing very smoothly. The construction progress has now reached 98%, and we expect to complete testing and begin sailing by tomorrow morning!"

Supervisor Benjamin excitedly shared the good news.

"really?"

Colonel Jack's face lit up with joy. This was fantastic news for everyone stationed on the island waiting for the completion of Fraxinus. It meant that they could evacuate and leave the dead zone of Yost Vandak Island the next day.

"Oh? That's fantastic news! But Manager Benjamin, are you sure there are no problems?"

Alice wasn't happy as expected; instead, she asked with a serious expression.

“Of course, no problem, Your Excellency Alice.”

Supervisor Benjamin confidently assured Alice.

"It would be best if there were no problems. Then let's quickly prepare to receive the Ratatosk research and construction facilities. Then we'll show you what Foehn speed is all about."

Alice gave Odin, who had just arrived, a wink as she spoke.
