Henan Province Luoyang.

There, 300,000 troops of the Qin Kingdom and the dispatched troops of the Imperial Empire had gathered. They were about to advance through the Sishui Pass to Kaifeng County.

“Are the preparations complete?”

“Yes, they are complete.”

Oswald looked back with a smile. The five Lich Dragons and all the Dark Brotherhood. . . Of course, it would have been better for them to continue recovering, as the Order’s champions had not yet recovered, but they had recovered enough after the battle with Mammon.

What’s more, he had the essence he had obtained from capturing the Archduke Demon of Blood.

This was his current physical strength. If he absorbed all of them, he would exceed 300. Then, he would become a monster stronger than when he wore Rampage, Gigantification, and Blood Daemon. . .

Twenty Superior-class aerial battleships, eight Metatron-class aerial battleships, and two Central-class aerial battleships. Thanks to the recent development of the catapult system by Maesterium, fighters were able to take off with a shorter runway.

As a result, each carrier could carry twice as many fighters than before. In the case of the Metatron class, it increased from 81 to 162, and in the case of the Central class, it increased from 243 to 486. As a result, there were now 2,268 Kaiser fighters.

On the ground, 300,000 infantry of the Qin Kingdom, six land battleships of the Qin Kingdom, one land carrier, and 300 tanks were advancing, and they were accompanied by a tank corps of 500 Tiger tanks and 40 Lion tanks from the Imperial Empire.

‘𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘐 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘪𝘵. . . 𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘬.’

He just prayed that the Empire’s Maesterium Osiris wouldn’t go berserk and start making things like Eastern land battleships. There was no bigger waste of money than that.

It was more profitable to build aerial battleships with the money to build land battleships. The firepower of the aerial battleships was also superior, and the aerial battleships had a much more advantageous position.

On the ground, there was a limitation in the range of vision, but in the air, it was possible to see a wider area. Even the range of the bombardment was longer and the power was stronger.

When these enormous forces passed through the Sishui Pass and headed towards Kaifeng County! A black fog was detected approaching this place. More precisely, it was not a black fog, but hundreds of thousands of aerial monsters.

Soon, Lieutenant General McLaren, the admiral of the Air Force, gave orders to all ships.

“Prepare the battleship bombardment! The target is the large number of aerial monsters ahead!”

Lieutenant General McLaren von Gloucester, who was the commander of the Iberian Fleet Command during the Imperial Civil War, became the admiral commanding the Air Force after being recommended by Oswald.

Honestly, with this level of force, he could have received the position of Air Force commander. . . However, Oswald was the commander of the dispatched forces. Rather than having two commanders in one army and making a mess of the command system, he was given only the command of the Air Force as an admiral.

Anyway, at Admiral McLaren’s command, the aerial battleships came to the forefront and aimed all their cannons forward. The shells were equipped with time bombs so that they would explode at a certain point in the air. Wasn’t that the only way to intercept so many aerial monsters?

Anyway, when the bombardment preparation reports came up from all the ships, Admiral McLaren immediately gave the order.

“All fleets, commence firing!”

Pababababang! Pababababang!

Twenty aerial battleships began shelling at once.

Soon, explosions occurred among the aerial monsters, engulfing them, and a large number of monsters fell to the ground.

As the indiscriminate bombardment of the battleships continued in this way, Kaiser fighters took off from the carrier and began to form a formation. It took a lot of time for the over 2,000 fighters to form a formation, but the relentless bombardment of the battleships slowed down the advance of the aerial monsters considerably, buying time.

━All fighters have completed their sortie!

“From now on, dogfighting is permitted! All fighters, shoot down the enemy!”

2,268 Kaiser fighters flew through the air and flew rapidly toward where the aerial monsters were. The fighters flew into the aerial monsters while emitting fireballs and magic missiles, and activated their shield devices in preparation for close-range attacks.

In an instant, the Kaiser fighters that had dug into the monsters attacked them with machine gun fire. Two 12.7mm machine guns fired and attacked the monsters.

The machine gun bullets tore apart any monster in an instant, and one in thirty rounds was mixed with an explosion, suppressing the monsters with high firepower here and there.

And then!

Bwaaaaang!

Red twin-engine fighters swooped in from above the Kaiser fighters.

They immediately went into a steep dive toward the Kaiser fighters and attacked them with dark magic missiles made of black demonic power. Fortunately, the shields blocked the attacks, but the shield damage rate was quite high.

“Unidentified fighters have appeared overhead! The fighters are attacking our fighters!”

━Anything that attacks us is an enemy! Engage!

At the squadron leader’s words, the fighter pilots immediately began to respond to the twin-engine fighters.

“This is Fox 3! It’s on my tail!”

━Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it!

Tudutudutudut!

Tididididing!

The enemy seemed to have machine guns as well, and bullets poured over the shield, creating sparks.

Then, from the 2 o’clock position on the XY plane axis, a Kaiser fighter flew in and opened fire with its machine guns.

Tudutudutudut!

Kukung!

Then, behind Fox 3, a twin-engine fighter crashed with an explosion.

━Target eliminated!

“Thank you!”
