My Space-Time System-Chapter 583 The Calm Before The Storm II.

A Week ago.

After sailing on the vast body of Ocean Tribirus for 4 years, The Stellar Warp Vanguard units arrived at different sides of the Synder empire and were stopped for interrogation and search by the coast guards.

The crew were disguised as merchants carrying large quantities of goods unique to the Tigeria empire. When questioned about their motives for carrying out such a dangerous journey, they explained how they discovered the market gap and how they planned on profiting from it if their journey went well.

Although both countries were enemies, they didn't stop normal citizens that didn't have ties with their governments; especially when it was beneficial to the Synder empire, since they didn't have any strong independent sailors willing to cross Ocean Tribirus.

However, this didn't mean they were not under suspicion or would be let go just like that.

The coast guards wasted no time in scanning the ship. Since it was a matter of national security, the scanning devices used by the Coast Guards were multiple times more powerful than those used in the city. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗ｏ𝚟𝚎𝚕.ｏｒｇ

The scan didn't detect any high-level individuals or weapons on the ship except for the ship's arrays and weapons that protected them from the beasts of the ocean. Even when the contents of every crew member's amulet were searched, it was only random things like personal belongings, mid-level weapons, and a few priced possessions like mid-level crystals.

Seeing that nothing was out of place, and the goods stated were present, the coast guards allowed them to pass.

…

Back to the present, A Leviathan's Embrace had finally arrived close to the marked area, not too far away from Coastville.

The Leviathan's Embrace was an unreleased marvel of magical engineering and nautical craftsmanship given to The Stellar Warp Vanguard unit by the Tigeria Empire. It was a ship designed for navigating the most treacherous of oceans and confronting the fiercest sea monsters that roam the deep.

The ship boasted an imposing silhouette, with a sleek, ebony hull that seemed to absorb the light, making it nearly invisible against the night sea and sea creatures.

It was armed to the teeth to combat sea monsters. It featured an array of magically enhanced cannons along its sides, capable of firing enchanted projectiles that could pierce the toughest of sea creature hides. The prow of the ship concealed a colossal harpoon cannon designed to harpoon and immobilize the largest of sea beasts.

For its defences, the Leviathan's Embrace possessed shimmering shields that could envelop the vessel, sealing it off from the ocean's depths. However, what made the vessel special was its ability to submerge.

As the Levithan's Embrace was arriving at the marked destination, it began gradually descending into the ocean. As this happened, its barriers were immediately activated, further adding to its absurd concealment.

In no time, the vessel reached the bed of the ocean and its entire crew which consisted of Aquamancers disembarked, leaving only the Captain onboard.

Without receiving any instructions, the crew went into position and began drawing the formation for the ultra-long-distance formation.

While most of them were carving out the formation, a group moved out to a not-too-far location and began digging.

Lo and behold a pile of thranium crystals had been buried in the area!

Without an atom of surprise, they carried the Thranium crystals back and began placing them in specific parts of the formation.

These were the power sources for the formation planted by the League not too long ago.

…

Aquastrum, Tigeria Empire.

Emperor Tidewalker IV was dressed in an armour with an intricately designed crest on the chest plate, depicting a stylized wave rising from the depths, symbolizing the emperor's dominion over the sea. The crest was adorned with rare aquamarine gemstones that glistened like the ocean's surface in the sunlight.

Standing beside him were the 9 strongest members of the empire which made up the council, and right in front of them were millions of soldiers who had been training nonstop for that day.

Emperor Tidewalker IV stood upon a grand, elevated platform overlooking a sea of loyal subjects and valiant soldiers. He raised his hand, commanding silence, and began to speak:

"Valiant warriors, and faithful allies,

Today, we gather not in celebration, but in determination. We stand at the precipice of a challenge that will test the very depths of our resolve, the strength of our unity, and the power of our conviction. We find ourselves compelled by fate and duty to take up arms against an adversary who threatens our way of life, our freedom, and our beloved realm.

Our enemy seeks to cast a shadow over the bright horizon of our future. They will soon learn that the strength of our spirit matches the boundless depths of the sea that surrounds us. Just as the ocean is both serene and tempestuous, we, too, possess a duality of strength and resilience that will carry us through the tempest that lies ahead.

With courage in our hearts, the sea at our side, and the legacy of our ancestors guiding us, we shall prevail. Our empire's story is one of resilience, tenacity, and triumph. Today, we add another chapter to that epic tale—a chapter written in the ink of our bravery, the blood of our sacrifice, and the indomitable spirit of the Tigeria Empire.

For Tigeria! For glory! For victory!"

The crowd erupted in thunderous cheers, their spirits lifted by the emperor's words, ready to follow him into the storm that awaited.

…

At the League of Assassins' hideout.

The Masked man stood in front of every member of the League except for Blake and spoke.

"Today is the day you have all been training for. Today is the day you get your revenge against the Synder Empire for all the atrocities they have committed toward you and millions of people."

"Today is the day we set them ablaze with their flames!"

The members of the League were shocked by the sudden announcement but nonetheless cheered as their blood began boiling.

…

Inside the mountain's peak, Cassius turned to Blake "It is time."

At that moment, the darkness array shut down, and Blake who was now at the Angel realm opened his eyes.
