Colonia Storm Tour

After thrusting his spear out and piercing through two more DEM magicians, Lin Haiyuan swept it to the side. These DEM magicians, now reduced to tattered rags, were swept into the sea like trash.

"Misia, more DEM magicians with abnormal magic readings are appearing at your 12 o'clock position!"

Alice called out a reminder.

Lin Haiyuan could see more DEM magicians with strange tattoos on their faces and bodies, howling and charging towards him with all sorts of melee weapons.

The weather is a bit warmer today, and the Heavenly Demon from Blind Man's Battle 2 Chicken Wings gave me a boost of energy, so I finally feel a bit better.

But that doesn't change the fact that it's so cold!

Chapter Thirty: Bottleneck (III)

"Have all these magicians gone to worship the chaotic evil gods of the warp?"

Alice glanced at the ferocious, beast-like DEM magicians and curled her lip.

“The magical modifications and enhancements these DEM magicians have undergone are different from what we saw on Takamiya Mana, Battalion Commander Misia. I apologize for not being able to respond earlier.”

Gardenia wielded Aroundight to deflect the attacks of multiple chainsaw swords, and then the triple plasma cannon fired a torrent of plasma that was restrained by magic and magnetic fields and shot forward.

The surging plasma waves emitted a deafening roar, crushing the arbitrary domains of these DEM magicians with overwhelming force, and then the uncontrollable extremely high temperature directly melted them away.

"It's alright. The magical transformation of Takamiya Mana should be more refined and take longer. These ordinary DEM magicians probably won't enjoy that kind of treatment, or perhaps they are just early experimental subjects..."

Lin Haiyuan felt that the answers should be sought more from the DEM database.

"Based on the tattoos and performance characteristics of the DEM magician, we searched the existing DEM database but found no related or similar entries. It might be the latest technology developed by DEM's manifestation device development department, or perhaps a kind of magic..."

A deep male voice from Walker.com AI appeared on the communication channel.

"magic?"

When Hua Zhizi heard this familiar word, she was stunned. In all her years, this was the first time she had ever heard such a magical and unscientific word on a serious channel.

"If the Manifestation Device Development Department were to use Manifestation Device technology to modify the magician's magic, then such a bizarre tattoo, like that of a believer in an evil god, should not appear."

Alice does remember that DEM knows magic, but it seems that the original author used this setting once and then forgot about it.

In order to eliminate Westcott, the future DEM leadership immediately added some kind of explosive magic to the abandoned satellite and dropped it with Bondsky, killing the boss in the hotel. In short, the impact of the fall was enough to flatten the entire Tengu City, equivalent to a tactical nuclear weapon.

"That's what they say, but in reality, the CR-UNITs they use and the small visualization devices implanted in their brains are all custom-made. DEM's magic still relies on their visualization devices."

Alice's statement is not without merit, because the satellite mentioned earlier has actually been transformed into a magical bomb using a manifestation device.

"Those strange tattoos are probably related to DEM's magic, which means that DEM has found a shortcut to magically modify magicians."

With a flick of her wrist, Hua Zhizi decapitated a DEM magician, then swung her sword back and shattered the hilt of the chainsaw sword. She followed up with a swift three-hit combo that shattered the DEM magician's Free Domain before thrusting straight in.

The DEM magician's head was pierced by Aroundight, and then Hana Gardenia drew Aroundight and dodged the chainsaw attacks of several DEM magicians.

At this moment, the Avalon Cannon Group 1, which had turned translucent blue, disappeared from the world completely, leaving behind a ring-shaped hyperspace fluctuation in its original location, under the continuous erasure effect of multiple hyperspace beams.

"Report: Avalon Artillery Group 01 has been eliminated!"

Charlotte put down her neutron rifle and reported to them.

"You did a good job. Political Commissar Hua, abandon the entanglement at the 4 o'clock position and, together with Valkyrie 01 to 15, follow Battalion Commander Artemisia to attack Avalon Missile Battery 01 at the 10 o'clock position."

Lin Haiyuan gave the order.

"Yes!"

Magicians like Gardenia and Charlotte responded loudly.

She looked at the ferocious-looking DEM magicians opposite her and said, "I'm sorry I don't have time to play with you all anymore. May you all rest in peace."

As Hua Zhizi said this, the two triple-mounted plasma cannons beside her immediately spat out tongues of plasma, which then continued to spray forward, forming a plasma wave that melted all the DEM magicians who were charging in regardless of the consequences.

"It's resolved, I'm on my way."

Youhua Zhizi turned around and accelerated towards the 10 o'clock direction. Because the island was small, the distance between them was not too great, so Youhua Zhizi met up with the rest of the magician team members within a minute.

More DEM magicians appeared in the sky above the island where Avalon Missile Fort 01 was located, and these DEM magicians were undoubtedly covered in strange tattoos.

"These magically transformed DEM magicians seem to be like weeds in a field, they keep coming back after being cut down."

Some gardenias complained that there were just too many of these DEM magicians.

"The DEM magicians stationed on other islands must have been assigned here to deal with us, which is why we have this illusion of a continuous stream of DEM magicians."

After Lin Haiyuan finished speaking, he turned to look to his right.

"You are now facing a pincer attack. The mobile sonic detectors have detected the DEM magician approaching from the 2 o'clock direction of Mike Island!"

Alice was warning them.

"However, those DEM magicians are currently distracted by Battalion Commander Artemisia and Political Commissar Youhua. Valkyrie 01 to 15, lower your flight altitude and fly close to the sea to deal with the DEM guards on Mini Island before dealing with Avalon Missile Battery 01. Battalion Commander Artemisia and Political Commissar Youhua, lure the DEM magicians at the 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock positions to the same o'clock position so that Political Commissar Youhua can deal with them in large numbers."

Lin Haiyuan thought that continuing the previous scattered combat would be too inefficient, so he directly gathered these DEM magicians in one direction and handed them over to the plasma waves to clean them up.

"Understood! x17"

After everyone responded, Lin Haiyuan and Youhua Zhizi took the initiative to attack as always, while Charlotte and the other magicians flew close to Mini Island with neutron rifles in hand.

Upon seeing a group of Wind Mages wielding unusual weapons, the DEM guards on the island immediately panicked.

Since their magicians had all been dispatched to fight Hereford's Eagle and Akula, who would have thought that a team of magicians with low-visibility smelting shark symbols and smelting (colonia's flank) flags painted on their CR-UNIT armor would still be on the battlefield.

"Damn it, this isn't what we agreed on! We were told there would only be two elite magicians as enemies! Now there are 15 more Wind Mages! Kids, if you don't want to die, you'd better use every ounce of your strength to fire!"

The DEM guard commander cursed.

These DEM guards hastily assembled in their positions and then opened fire on the magicians of the Valkyrie Battalion with their G36 rifles and M134 rapid-fire machine guns.

However, in the face of the girls' casual domain, the attacks launched by these weapons, which were not even 20mm in caliber, were weak and ineffective.

"Into the void~"

Charlotte ignored the sparks flying from bullets in front of her in the random field, and then attacked a DEM guard with her neutron rifle.

With an indescribable echo, the DEM Guardian, struck by the transdimensional beam, immediately turned like the Avalon Cannon 01 that had just disappeared, its entire body turning translucent blue and revealing its internal framework, much to the horror of its companions.

Which can be erased faster, a huge building or a human being? It is obvious that the latter is easier to erase because of its smaller size.

Within seconds, the DEM guard who was hit by the hyperspace beam disappeared from the world forever, leaving behind a hyperspace teleportation wave that extended along the spacetime structure.

Like the enlarged and enhanced version of the Chrono Legion, the neutron cannon of the Phantom Tank is not only a technologically advanced and terrifying weapon, but also has a huge psychological deterrent effect. The enemies who are erased from the current spacetime by the neutron rifle and neutron cannon face the fate of being thrown directly into another world of a different dimension, which is more terrifying than simple death.

As the neutron rifles of the 15 magician girls took their positions, the DEM guards were subjected to an inescapable and traceless massacre. Those hit by the transdimensional beams fired from the neutron rifles disappeared forever from this spacetime, never to return to their current timeline.

However, even with such a powerful weapon, the efficiency of clearing out these DEM guards is actually much lower than that of beam guns and other melee weapons. Why? Because the chronosphere beam needs to completely erase the target from the current timeline; it cannot be left unfinished, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted. With a beam gun or other melee weapons, as long as you choose the right time and angle of attack, you can effectively take down multiple enemies. Moreover, you only need to confirm a kill without completely pulverizing the enemy's body. This is a human, not some humanoid monster.

Minutes later, the entire island of Mini was turned into a ghost island by the time-space erasure weapon. If outsiders came to Mini, they would see a lot of equipment and shell casings and other traces indicating that a battle had taken place in the sky above the island, but they would find no corpse on the ground and not even a trace of blood. Even though the entire island was bathed in the midday sun, they would feel a chill that ran from their spine to their brain.

"Begin erasing Avalon Missile Battery 01!"

Charlotte and the other members of the Magicians began using neutron rifles around the Avalon Missile Battery, methodically erasing the Avalon Missile Battery 01 from the continuity of time.

The entire Avalon missile battery No. 01 also began to follow in the footsteps of Avalon gun group No. 01, turning translucent blue to reveal its framework.

"Damn it, what are these magicians up to! Why are they all chasing after Hereford's Eagle and Akula! I gave them mission objectives and to protect Avalon's defenses."

Colonel Arnason stared angrily at the Avalon Missile Tunnel 01, which was suddenly disappearing from the giant monitor.

"Colonel Arnason, these unstable experimental magicians have fallen into an abyss of thirst for blood and killing; they can't control themselves."

The director of the Anali Institute shook his head, indicating that he couldn't do anything about it.

"Well, the unstable test subjects, the normal magicians have all been transferred back to headquarters, and at this time, Hereford's Eagle and Akula have reappeared in the Anali Islands."

Colonel Arnason, stroking his bald head, stared at the monitor showing Artemisia and Gardenia locked in battle, looking utterly bewildered.

"Whether they are experimental magicians or normal magicians, the fate of Hereford's Eagle and Akula is the same: the precision of their random domains is too great."

The institute director felt there was no difference between the two.

"The strength of a magician is determined not only by the precision of their random domain, but also by their combat experience. The idea that the precision of random domain is the only factor in victory is just wishful thinking on the part of those walking bookshelves. Also, you guys need to quickly find a way to control those experimental magicians and take down that group of Fiery Wind magicians who are up to some trick. We have already lost an Avalon gun crew that was used to deal with the Ratatosk air battleship!"

Colonel Arnason said unhappily.

"Okay okay."

The institute director, like other researchers, began trying to correct the actions of these experimental magicians who were intent on killing but were instead being slaughtered themselves through constant communication.

As the director of the Anali Institute said, there were only DEM magicians on the Anali Islands who had undergone excessive magical modifications, and these DEM magicians had all been transferred by Colonel Anasen to Mini Island to intercept the enemy.

So, from the air, these DEM magicians looked like hyenas attracted by blood, swarming into the airspace of Mini Island from the three o'clock direction.

"Drink it!!!"

Gardenia wielded her Aroundight sword, transforming it into a lotus flower of afterimages as she slashed at the charging DEM magician.

Faced with such a high sword speed and Aroundight's considerable damage and cutting ability, even if the accuracy of these DEM magicians' random domains is greatly improved, they will be shattered by many attacks in an instant and then have their bodies torn apart or completely pierced by Aroundight.

Meanwhile, Lin Haiyuan, who was fighting beside her, had a greater advantage in attack range than Aroundight with her "Heroic Spirit War Maiden" against such a large number of enemies.

With a sweeping slash and a cross cut, she tore a hole in the Free Domains of several DEM magicians, then cleaved the DEM magician who was right in the bullseye in two, along with his Free Domain, dragging half of his corpse as he slammed it down on the DEM magician on the right.

The corpse of the DEM magician, which had been cut in two, had no chance of escaping when it hit the random field. However, the Heroic Spirit War Maiden's spear showed no mercy as it cleaved the corpse in half again and cut through the random field.

After the slight resistance from the Heroic Spirit War Maiden in his hand disappeared, Lin Haiyuan could see that the DEM magician would suffer the same fate as his companion, being cut in half at the waist.

However, a person doesn't die immediately after being cut in half at the waist. In order to quickly free the DEM magician and prevent him from moving again, Lin Haiyuan picked up the spear and swung it along the neck.

The DEM magician's head completely disintegrated, splitting into three pieces and falling to the ground in freefall.

"All the DEM magicians from the Anali Islands have entered the airspace above Mini Island. You must hold on! The last wave of DEM magicians consists of 30!"

Alice could see from the radar of the mobile sonic detector that a full 30 DEM magicians had crossed Mike Island and entered the aerial battlefield of Mini Island.

"It seems our presence has terrified the local DEM, who are putting all their magicians on us, hoping to win by sheer numbers."

Gardenia looked at the DEM magicians with their hideous faces and bizarre tattoos and laughed without fear.

"For us, quantity suppression is the least meaningful thing. DEM is not capable of accumulating the number of magicians to a level that can achieve a qualitative change."

Lin Haiyuan was not optimistic about the strategy of overwhelming DEM with sheer numbers.

"There are two DEM magicians in the flight formation with higher magic readings than the other DEM magicians. You must be extremely careful."

Alice noticed two unusual readings on the multiple magical readings of the mobile sonic detector.

When Alice warned them that there were two tough guys in the group, the two DEM magicians, who were slightly better than the other magicians, had already leaped over the summit of Mount Izzy on Mike Island.

Both the mobile sonic detector and the Destroyer vehicle were concealed by the cloaking field, so even when they flew overhead, the DEM magicians did not detect their presence.
