Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Dietrich had already silently begun to activate the Religious Holy Image. His strength was not earned through his own efforts, but instead entirely bestowed by the Lord, who provided him with opportunities, even giving him Mythical Level material, Shalya’s Holy Tear. Now, it was time for him to repay the favor!

Su Li raised an eyebrow: "Even though Blue Mirror Territory has established itself in the Border Prince’s Territory, it must have unique qualities that make it formidable. Although it might not surpass our Hesse Territory, it should not be underestimated. I just wonder what they’ve uncovered in Blue Mirror Lake over the years to cause such a strong Divine Grace fluctuation."

As the territory’s Religious Advisor, Rong’en followed Su Li and said with knitted brow: "Before the battle began, I studied the Manan Faith for a long time. This Divine Spirit is both righteous and evil. Among its followers, the scourgers of Manan are particularly zealous; they prick themselves with sea urchins and then rub salt into their wounds. These darkened followers consider Manan akin to the Dark God."

"Moreover, it is corroborated by an Empire professor who drowned on the fifth floor, believing the Manan Faith had consumed other deities like River God, Sea Giant, and other Sea Gods to develop into its current form."

Huh? Manan also consumed other River Gods and Sea Giants?

This piece of information was something Su Li was hearing for the first time. If that’s the case, it could explain why the opponent’s Divine Power fluctuation is so strong.

Could it be that the opponent discovered a part of a River God’s or Lake God’s remains in Blue Mirror Lake?

While Su Li was on full alert, the ritual within the Manan Divine Hall had already been completely carried out.

"For the glory of Manan! Release — Sea God’s Fury!" The High Priest shrieked, fiercely driving the Magic Staff, embedded with a colossal pearl, into the core rune of the altar.

"Buzz————!!!"

A deep buzz so overwhelming it could stop one’s heart and make one’s soul tremble sounded. It wasn’t an explosion but a horrific resonance created by the instantaneous tearing and compressing of space due to a massive volume of energy. Immediately afterward, a deep blue energy torrent, over a meter in diameter, silently yet with the power to destroy all, sprayed forth from the altar’s twisted seawater!

It lacked the howl of ordinary shells, but its speed exceeded visual detection. Wherever it passed, the air was instantly ionized, leaving a brief, dazzling azure trail. Its target was the cannon position at the cliffside military base, where Su Li stood!

"Not good!" Su Li’s pupils contracted sharply, and a chilling sensation swept over him instantly. He didn’t even have time to think in detail about what it was; his instinct and danger intuition made him react.

"Get out of the way!" he roared, his voice like thunder crashing over the cliffside military base.

Simultaneously, that deep-blue beam of destruction had crossed the short span of a few hundred meters, like a deep-sea spear tearing through the sky, smashing into the cannon position area of the cliffside military base!

Boom——!!!

This time, it was a world-shaking explosion! Far more intense than the Dwarf Cannon!

The dwarves’ proud, solid fortifications were like paper toys, evaporating and disappearing instantly in front of the deep sea energy torrent imbued with Divine Power! A cannon and two mortars, along with the surrounding dwarf artillerymen, turned to dust at the touch of the azure light, unable to even let out a scream!

The terrifying energy shockwave spread wildly in a ring. Hard rock cliff walls were scraped off thick layers effortlessly like tofu, with debris raining down like a storm onto the battlefield and Brionne River below. At the explosion’s center, a huge crater formed, its edges flowing with molten rock and azure corrosive energy!

The violent vibration made the entire cliffside military base tremble and groan, as though on the brink of collapse. The surviving dwarves and air cavalry knights were flung by the shockwave, landing heavily on the ground, bleeding from their ears and noses, dizzy and disoriented.

Dorglin, slightly farther away and quick to react, was slammed by the blast onto a giant rock behind him. Despite spitting blood and dropping his war axe, he was fortunate not to die. His pupils widened with disbelief as he looked at the former cannon site, now a mess of broken artillery and ammunition, and fallen dwarves and knights clutching their wounds and moaning in pain.

And the core target of this destructive beam was exactly where Su Li had just stood!

At the critical moment, Su Li’s figure had vanished from the spot. Hilude displayed speed beyond human limits, seeming to teleport towards him, bringing Su Li along as they rapidly veered to the side.

However, the range and power of "Sea God’s Fury" were truly terrifying. The edge of the destructive azure energy still swept over her like clingy maggots!

Sizzle——!

The Divine Chosen Armor blessed by the Sunfire Church worn by Hilude emitted an ear-piercing sound of corrosion by strong acid as it made contact with the deep blue energy! The sturdy armor plates visibly dulled, losing luster, and even began to soften and dissolve! A cold, heavy, pressing energy with endless deep-sea pressure continued eroding the Divine Chosen Rune on her armor.

But this was not the most terrifying part!

The most terrifying aspect was that after "Sea God’s Fury" tore through the cliff, leaving behind a terrifying crater of molten and corrosive scars, the entire battlefield seemed to be put on pause. Smoke, screams, and the clash of metal were all enveloped by a deeper, primordial fear.

Because beneath the severed cliff face cut by the Divine Power Cannon was not exposed rock layers or rushing river water, but... flesh!
