Magic Underachiever

After Elisa left the ship, Kepel immediately ordered the iceberg to be destroyed. Without the iceberg as a fulcrum, any number of hellish creatures that come out of the portal will fall into the sea and be counted one by one by the Scarab Company's warships.

Silver Wing retreated from the sky above the iceberg and landed on the surrounding battleships to rest. More than a dozen warships of various types surrounded the iceberg in the center, and all artillery with firing angles aimed their muzzles at the iceberg.

Here we can see the advantages of thermal weapons in the Age of Discovery. The range of advanced artillery far exceeds the range of magic in the ancient magic era.

After a brief calm on the sea, intensive artillery fire suddenly sounded. The flying cannonball pulled out a tracer trajectory in the air and hit the ice wall of the iceberg. The explosion of fire and gunpowder smoke instantly submerged the entire iceberg.

The battle mode that had never been seen before made the hell army very uncomfortable.

Although he suffered very few losses, his army captured the exit on the other side of the portal. But he didn't expect that the exit was actually on the sea, and the foothold was only an iceberg with a radius of only fifty meters. The combat environment was extremely unfavorable to this hell army. When the enemy used ultra-long-range artillery to bomb the iceberg, the hell warriors who captured the iceberg could only struggle to defend.

Fortunately, although the hell creatures are not good at water magic, it does not mean that they are not good at it. The magical advantage allows the defenders to build a strong defensive shield and constantly repair the iceberg with sea water.

Seeing the hell army trapped on the iceberg, Duncan was extremely anxious, and he took the initiative to come to the demon lord Maurice.

Maurice made a throne for himself. He sat in the throne, surrounded by demons, listening to his subordinates' reports on the battle on the other side of the portal, and adjusting the deployment of troops on the iceberg position from time to time.

Duncan humbly suggested to Morris: "Dear Lord Morris. I heard that the enemy is bombarding the iceberg you occupied with naval guns... I think the demons should be sent out at this time, only ten of them, no! Just need to Send five demons and you can destroy all the enemies in front of you."

"Do I need you to order me to command the battle?" Morris said arrogantly to Duncan: "The changes in the main world are really great, and you humans are weaker than I thought. The only thing that hasn't changed is... greed, it can't stand Resist the temptation.

The people on the other side of the portal don't realize how weak they are at all. They think they have hope of defeating us. This is also the reason why I have never used demons, and even only sent a small number of troops to defend the iceberg.

I just let them think that as long as the attack is more fierce and more people participate in the attack, they can win.

The enemy did not evacuate, but kept a distance and bombed the iceberg, obviously waiting for reinforcements.

Then I will wait and wait for more people to come.

That's when it's time to use the demons, now... do they need my demons to destroy them? "

Maurice laughed, and the devil laughed with him.

After being ridiculed, Duncan retreated to the team staring into the abyss. Things turned out differently than he imagined. Staring into the Abyss is a church that believes in the Dread Lord. These demons are subordinates of the Dread Lord. They are also subordinates of the Dread Lord Ergus. They should cooperate sincerely and work together to promote the Dread Lord.

Why... can't I see any devout faith in the Dread Lord among these demons? And the attitude towards these abyss-gazing cultists is like treating a group of clowns trying to relieve their boredom?

Not like a family at all.

And...is a demon who doesn't regard angels as mortal enemies still a demon?

Thinking of this, Duncan couldn't help but look at Jessica and Charles who were sitting and resting aside. A family blessed by angels, a girl with a powerful angel sleeping in her blood, could actually sit in front of a group of demons unharmed.

What he saw and heard today really overturned Duncan's imagination of demons. He walked over to sit next to Sir Charles. He said in a low voice: "Do you have anything to explain to me? Regarding the last time Staring into the Abyss was expelled from the mainland by the Holy See...

The Holy See's comprehensive campaign against us started from the orphanage where demons were sacrificed. We investigated the information of that operation and found that a girl was not killed by the demon for some unknown reason.

And just when those believers were preparing to bury the girl under the devil's altar, the Supreme Holy See suddenly surrounded the orphanage. There are very few believers who can escape from the orphanage, but not none.

Although we don't know if you were there at the time, that girl would have been as old as Miss Jessica if she were alive... "

Jessica on the side immediately became nervous when she heard this, and quietly put her hand on the holster.

Charles patted Jessica on the shoulder and said, "Relax, if Bishop Duncan wants to expose us, he won't tell us."

Then Charles said to Duncan: "You are right. I am the informer...Jessica is the girl who was not killed by the demon. I thought at the time that her blood came from a higher demon, so let us summon the demon fear.

But the mad believers insisted on burying her alive.

At that time, I just wanted to save Jessica, and then explore the secrets of her ancestors, so as to obtain higher power from that demon. So I reported it to the Holy See, and then adopted the rescued Jessica as Charles.

Now it seems...I was wrong.

The demons at that time were not afraid of Jessica's demonic blood, but because she had a powerful guardian angel.

You know my secret, what are you going to do? "

Duncan looked around and found that no Abyss Gazing Church was paying attention to this place, so he whispered to Charles: "If I expose your affairs, neither the Church of the Most Good nor the Abyss Gazing Church will let you go. But since what happened before, it can no longer be undone.

Just like this world is about to be destroyed by these demons.

The Abyss Gazing Church will also grow stronger and replace the Church of the Most Good in the world. And I will definitely have a lot of power in the Church of the Abyss Gazing Church...

At that time, I can use my influence to absolve you of your crimes, but you have to do something for me."

Charles asked: "You need me What to do? "

Duncan looked around again and said, "I don't believe that angels and demons can coexist peacefully. When these demons knew that the First Empire of the Main World was gone, they had no pressure to kill humans. But without the Cloud City, Morris did not dare to touch a human protected by an angel.

This shows that Morris did not tell the truth. He knew who the angel who guarded Jessica was. An angel whose name alone could make Morris feel afraid...

And what kind of human family can make such an angel willing to protect it?

If Miss Jessica is willing to join Gazing into the Abyss, it must be the supreme honor of Gazing into the Abyss! "
