Chapter 437 Whirlpool
Laias led the people and drove the aircraft directly overseas.
Sean stood on the rocks beside the coastline, squinting at the other person's retreating back.
Wu Xiao is indeed a talented general. He made a judgment almost immediately after learning the situation of the battle - if the tree people were allowed to attack, the empire would not be able to withstand it.
The original frontline commander Shi Hai made no mistakes, but the imperial army was still in defeat, so Wu Xiao immediately saw the crux of the problem.
This is the purest form of overwhelming numbers - a good general can defeat many with less, but every general prefers to defeat fewer with more.
The number of Treants is simply too great, and no strategy, high-end weapons, or top-notch combat power can reverse the disadvantage.
So, Wu Xiao has only one goal, the other side of the coast that continuously provides new blood to the tree people army - there, there is no telling how many tree people turned into driftwood after undergoing unknown rituals. Then drift to the other side of the sea.
No one can lead an army across the violent sea, even the tree people can only use driftwood drifting, so Wu Xiao made this plan.
Continue to make the imperial army retreat, and let the large troops of the tree people continue to advance to a position where they cannot quickly return to defense - and then find a way to open a hole and let the elite troops cut off the tree people's attack. Force replenishment line.
Treants can take root in the ground to absorb nutrients, so they have no concept of logistics. It is not easy for Wu Xiao to be able to see through the key nodes at a glance and make corresponding plans immediately.
The appearance of Sean allows Wu Xiao’s plan to be implemented with a higher probability.
The target of the elite force led by Layas is the sea fifty kilometers away from the coastline - crossing the violent sea is difficult enough, and what Layas and the others want to do is without any chance of turning back.
They brought almost all the explosives in the imperial armory, and what they had to do was to dive deep into the sea with the explosives and detonate them!
The team was almost invisible, but Sean still squinted his eyes for a while.
Immediately, a bored look appeared on his face and he shook his head casually.
No matter where it is placed, with soldiers like Layas, marshals like Wu Xiao, and national power like the empire, it is hard to imagine that such a country will completely sink.
The empire has too many opportunities to solve this disaster and build a defense line on the coastline early? Or will the exploration efforts within the national borders be completely covered in distant places? Even when the tree people army just logged in, they could invest a large amount of troops to defeat the opponent's effective strength in one fell swoop.
However, the disaster was originally caused by the empire. After the disaster occurred, the person with the highest power in the country did nothing.
The world is hopeless like this.
Sean had expected this, but he was still a little dissatisfied when he saw the royal family turning the situation in front of them into such an unbearable situation.
What a waste... You obviously have far more resources than others, but you are just doing these things.
Shawn can more or less guess the emperor's goal, which is nothing more than eternal life, becoming a god, or moving towards a higher realm.
The other party's method is obviously more... rough.
In Sean's view, as the emperor of the empire, he has too many resources at his disposal. Even if it is to perform some cult ritual, there are more efficient methods than now.
He lit a cigar, and light blue smoke drifted up.
"Lack of imagination, too inefficient use of resources, and even doing bad things but still trying to maintain superficial rules..." Sean blew out a puff of smoke in the direction where Layas' team left, with a look on his face. Show some disdainful smile. "If I had been allowed to sit in the emperor's position for decades, this world would have been fucking destroyed long ago..."
"Huh...it doesn't matter whether you still have the emperor in your body or not. Part of the consciousness, or you have completely become the skinning messenger - I hope that your plan that has been planned for so long will not disappoint me... Your Majesty."
Sean casually put the still burning cigar. Throwing it into the sea water, the sound of the waves drowned out the hiss of the fireworks being extinguished.
Then, a louder voice came.
On the distant sea level, a dazzling light suddenly pierced the sky, as if the sun had risen in advance in an instant, but it was more dazzling and blazing than the sun. This ray of light carries a strong radiation that cannot be seen directly, shrouding everything around it in a pale light.
Immediately afterwards, a huge fireball rose into the sky and broke through the dark blue sea. Accompanied by the deafening explosion, the sound seemed like the roar from hell, shaking everything around it. The fireball rolled and expanded in the air, releasing immeasurable energy, instantly igniting the surrounding air. The Violent Sea finally became violent as its name suggests, and the entire ocean turned into a sea of fire.
As the fireball rose, a powerful shock wave spread around at an alarming speed, setting off layers of air fluctuations like huge waves, as if the entire space was trembling and shaking.
The huge waves bubbled with scorching white foam, then rose to a height of tens of meters, and a terrible tsunami rushed from a distance.
What came first was a shock wave, followed by a terrifying heat wave and fireworks storm. Then, large swaths of hot water droplets washed around, and finally, the tsunami washed up on the coastline.
Sean just watched all this calmly, and he slowly walked on the waves to the top of the tsunami.
Looking from a distance, you can also see that the explosion of the large-yield explosive directly blew up countless seawater, exposing the barren seabed. Among them, the seafloor strata were suddenly broken by the explosion, revealing a Deep black trench.
The light is weakening, and the sea water is beginning to flow back crazily.
When the waves on both sides merged, there was a violent collision, and an even more terrifying tsunami hit the shore again.
However, the tsunami was just the aftermath, and this was not what Wu Xiao and the empire wanted.
Shaun stood in mid-air. He slowly flew towards the direction of the explosion, his fingers twitching slightly.
Sure enough, the power of death was slowly gathered in the palm of his hand.
However, Sean laughed and shook his head: "There is only death, but no despair... Tsk, the taste of this power is not pure enough."
He did not purify the absorbed power. He used it on himself again, but gently gathered it up.
Layas and the troops he led have completely turned into nothingness. In order to ensure that the explosives are detonated in the right place and in time, they have only one choice.
“Tsk, Wu Xiao... is really capable...”
After waiting for a while, Sean saw what Wu Xiao wanted, and even he couldn’t help but reveal a An expression of appreciation.
In the center of the ocean, a huge whirlpool formed.
