My Space-Time System

Chapter 605  3rd Sea Lord, Corsair.

Prince Bryon and Darius were the first to respond as their figures appeared above the city, gazing at the large bodies of water slowly making their way toward the city. "How did they conjure so much water without any of our patrols noticing?" Colonel Darius was shocked as massive waves of water were coming toward Calton from all sides.

"They didn't conjure it; they warped the water from the ocean." Prince Bryon said with a frown etched across his face. At that moment angels of the city rose above the city as well waiting for the commands of the Prince and Colonel Darius. "We need to stop the water from reaching the city." Darius said with a deep frown but Prince Bryon shook his head in refusal.

"It's not possible now. Take a good look for yourself." Prince Bryon said as he pointed ahead.

Darius looked ahead with his eyes squinted as he noticed small figures hovering above the large bodies of water, they were the multiple Tigerian Angels taking control of the large bodies of water coming from the four cardinal points of the city.

All the Angels slowly waved their hands as if they were silently ordering an attack. At the same time, the large body of water began rising high into the air while they drifted backwards as they watched the water rise higher, towering over the walls of Calton in mere seconds.

Simultaneously all the Angels clenched their open palms and an invisible ripple exploded from their bodies. Instantly, the huge bodies of water began to spin. At first, its movement seemed slow and sluggish but with time the speed and intensity increased drastically, turning the massive bodies of water into mighty drills, spinning at immense speed.

Seeing this Colonel Darius' face darkened and he quickly issued a series of orders to the Angels behind him.

"Have the range of our barriers withdrawn to the city." Prince Brian turned his attention to a final Angel who was left behind. "We need its power concentrated on the city only and nothing else." "Understood!" The Angel bowed and vanished, leaving behind Prince Bryon and Darius who watched the water drills approach with stunning intensity.

"The only good thing about the situation is that the warp nodes are still active," Darius said in hopes of improving the mood of Prince Bryon.

"Of course, they are still active. To teleport this massive body of water undetected, they had to cast it from a range beyond our preying eyes. The warp distortion array cannot work from that distance." Prince Bryon seems unfazed by this news. At this moment, citizens and soldiers alike stood rooted to their spots as they looked toward the sky now blocked by the terrifying water drills, about to descend upon them. Many silently prayed while holding on to their kids tight while some couldn't muster the courage needed to watch, they locked their homes and hid under their beds while saying silent prayers, hoping the heavens would hear their cries.

Darius wanted to say more but he couldn't as the water drills had already reached. A deafening explosion rocked the city of Calton as the drills hit, filling the air with screeching sounds. At first, it seemed like the barrier may hold but then visible web-shaped cracks began spreading across the surface of the barrier, spreading far and wide. "It won't hold," Darius said with a deep frown but Prince Bryon remained silent, not even daring to blink.

Following a second deafening explosion coupled with a glass-shattering sound, the barriers of the city crumbled as the water drills threatened to descend into the city.

Civilians and soldiers below let out heart-wrenching cries as many shut their eyes in preparation for their ultimate demise. But then a loud and furious voice boomed across the city, giving the people a feeling of hope in this hopeless situation.

"CALTON IS NOT YOURS TO TAKE!" Prince Bryon's furious voice boomed across the skies as his eyes lit up with power.

A fierce tempest of wind exploded from his body, surging far and wide as it took the shape of a sphere. The expansion of the wind sphere was so rapid, that it quickly replaced the fallen barrier just a second after it was broken.

A deafening explosion rocked the city once again as the water drills smashed into the wind sphere surrounding the city. The fierce clash seemed to last a few seconds before the water drills began receding.

Almost instantly cheers from citizens and soldiers alike boomed across the city. Just when they thought all hope was lost Prince Bryon had stepped in and saved them from doom.

Unfortunately, Prince Bryon didn't share such sentiment with them. His frown was even more profound than before. It became clear to him that the sole purpose of the initial attack was never to destroy the city in one go, but the barriers!

"Darius, have our soldiers prepare for an invasion! This battle is far from over." Prince Bryon ordered with a stern look on his face.

"Yes, My Lord!" Darius responded with a light bow before vanishing and leaving the prince alone.

Outside the city, the third Sea Lord, Corsair appeared in view. He was a grizzly middle-aged man with a hulking figure and darker-toned skin. His upper half was left bare, revealing thick chest hairs, bulging muscles, and countless scares, a testament to the countless battles this man had fought.

Meanwhile, below he wore typical pirate pants and boots. His left eye was covered with an eye patch while his thick grey beard complimented his black bandana tied over his head. Around his neck were necklaces made with an equal amount of beads and bones, with a skull-shaped pendant attached to it.

His four black angelic wings fluttered majestically but what truly gained the attention of everyone was the spine-shaped bone whip in his hands with the bull skull hilt. This weapon kept twisting back and forth as if it possessed a life of its own.

"Hahahahahahahaha!" The third Sea Lord's domineering laughter filled the air, sending shivers down the spine of all those who heard it.
