C190 A True Warrior
Since the start of the meeting, it had been going on for an hour. The content of the conversation between the three kings ranged from weather to magic, from the situation of this war to the mobilization of the airship fleet. It seemed to be useless. But there were a few people behind each of them who were quickly recording. It could be seen that these conversations were indeed useful.
However, only Vilhelmina and a few of the people from Aldran who came along with them knew that the real important part had not yet begun.
The follower who was standing quietly beside the Queen of Aldran suddenly interrupted the conversation.
He took a step forward and silently looked at Vilhelmina's watch.
The young queen immediately understood.
She smiled and stood up elegantly.
"It's time. Next is a small firework performance I arranged for the two of you. Please order the fleet to activate all the shields to the maximum."
"What will happen? Fireworks performance? Where is it? "
Louis CCXXXIII asked the Gaul ships in the alliance fleet to activate their shields. He was sitting on the deck, turning his head around. No matter which direction he looked in, it seemed like he could not see anything other than the fleet and the vast ocean.
"You'll see in a while."
Someone actually came to deliver two strange gold-rimmed glasses.
The reason why it was strange was that the lenses were black that could absorb sunlight.
"You'll probably need this."
Most civilized countries in the world with a high rate of development, the royal families that ruled normally weren't mages. The royal children would usually learn some sword skills and battle qi, or perhaps they could be outstanding archers. However, there were almost no mages who could become kings. Learning magic required a large amount of time and experience. This would cause the heir to lose the time needed to cultivate etiquette, language, and rule a country.
And most mages pursued the truth and the power that came with it. They have no interest in ruling a country. Even if a powerful Titled Devil Instructor could overthrow a dynasty in minutes, they would not do so.
The high-level mages provided protection for the country as a deterrent and war force. Correspondingly, the country paid money to fund their magic experiments. For a long time, this kind of stable and special system of the coexistence of royal power and magic had been formed.
Therefore, whether it was Louis CCXXXIII or Edward XVIII, they were actually ordinary people.
Even if they were 15 kilometers away and covered by a protective shield, if they wanted to face the Day of Destruction's light and not damage their vision, they could only wear this kind of glasses.
Edward XVIII took the glasses and looked at them over and over again. He seemed to have realized something.
Louis CCXXXIII did not think too much about it. He put on his glasses and found that he could not see anything.
Even the deck of the airship, the small table in front of him, and other things that could be easily seen, he had to observe them for a while before he could find them.
The only thing they could see clearly was probably the sun that they couldn't look at normally.
Louis Bourbon suddenly exclaimed, "So dark!"
At the same time, more larger Britain airships also opened their energy shields. They spread out from the tight formation, as if they were welcoming the enemies that came out of nowhere. The sisters of the HMS Determination, which was also the HMS Deceive crew of the D-class battle airship, had all hid below the deck. The other sailors who were still on the deck also received the order to close their eyes towards the southwest.
In the entire fleet, facing the northeast direction where the explosion was about to happen, there were only the three kings who were meeting, as well as a few important ministers of the three countries standing not far away.
"So what is this thing?"
Louis CCXXXIII realized that he could not see anything and lost his patience, so he asked again.
Vilhelmina secretly glanced at the time. One minute and fifty seconds had passed.
"It should be about time..."
When the huge fireball rose from the horizon, she had yet to finish her sentence.
When the explosion happened, the light produced was so bright that even Louis CCXXXIII, who was watching through a layer of black glass, suddenly stood up from his seat. He let out a strange cry as if his eyes had been pierced.
However, before he could straighten his legs, the shockwave of the explosion shook the HMS Determination, which was floating in the air, even though it weighed thirty-four thousand tons. Lu Yi immediately sat back down.
Edward XVIII did not move, nor did he say anything. He just sat there, looking very calm. He had the demeanor of a great nation. Of course, he might have been scared silly.
Vilhelmina smiled. In fact, the shock in her heart was not any less than the shock of the other two.
This was also the first time she had personally witnessed the destructive power of this magic.
Even though it was 15 kilometers away, she could clearly see the huge dust cloud that was rolling up.
Under this kind of pure destructive power, any description of the Palewhite seemed to be powerless.
She also did not understand, when did such a mage appear in her country? It was said that this mage did not even have a title. Why had she never heard of this person's existence?
Vilhelmina was also curious about the creator of this magic and waited for Riko Hasegawa to appear.
However, the first to land was not Riko.
It was a strange middle-aged man.
The man who suddenly smashed the HMS Determination had a charred face. His robe had many holes on it, and half of his shoulder was burnt. He could barely recognize the double headed eagle badge of Westfalen.
A few mages immediately ran up from the lower deck. They nervously pointed the wand at the man, their expressions full of vigilance.
"Who is it?"
