Chapter 418: Chapter 415: Inhuman Attack

"Ronald?"

"Something’s happened!"

Faced with such sudden incidents, the two sitting in the cabin naturally couldn’t remain indifferent. Almost simultaneously, Ronald and Heloise rose and headed outside the cabin.

But it was already too late.

They had only just left their room when an even more piercing and terrifying sound of metal twisting came from all directions, and the floor under their feet began to twist and warp to the side.

It was as if outside the ship, a giant with infinite strength was gripping the hull with both hands, trying to break it in two!

At that moment, the Caster’s protection on the ship simultaneously failed.

Once again, the howling wind and rain over the Sinking Sun Sea reappeared, and the waves hitting the hull now had their intended effect, along with the violent, rhythmless surges, making it nearly impossible for anyone inside to stand firm on the ground!

Ronald, enhanced by "Divine Comedy," possessed excellent hearing.

So, apart from the nearby sound of the hull bending, he could faintly sense something outside slapping the water.

If they remained indifferent now, it would be like deliberately seeking death.

"Philis, the ship’s going to be destroyed, hold me tight!"

"Will it hinder your movements?"

"No problem!"

A fleeting eye contact passed, then Heloise embraced Ronald from behind, and all the movements were completed in the blink of an eye.

At that instant, the corridor at the end of their field of vision in the cabin twisted completely into a mass and gradually stretched towards their direction.

"From the standpoint of the relationship between the entire earth and the sky, we will begin to form our comprehension!"

Quickly reciting the incantation from "Astronomy Master," Ronald also gently rubbed his fingertips, with the powers of the "Angel" and this round both taking effect, immediately tearing open the cabin above them, revealing the churning dark clouds in the sky.

Time was urgent, every second counted.

At this moment, Ronald didn’t plan to continue chanting spells. Relying on his ridiculously strong physical condition, he leaped up twice for leverage and quickly jumped out of the cabin below.

Boom—

Almost the next second after they left.

The spot where they had just been standing was engulfed by the twisted hull, leaving no extra space. Even Ronald, if he had hesitated for a moment, would have been caught in this attack.

Back on the deck continuously slapped by the waves, Heloise immediately exclaimed from behind Ronald:

"What is this thing, a sea monster?"

The perpetrator behind the attack on the ship was right in front of them.

Huge tentacles had the ship firmly grasped in three places and then began to tighten inward like a python strangling its prey. From the severely warped hull at Ronald and Heloise’s current location, even the barnacles clinging to the tentacles were clearly visible.

At this moment, Ronald also understood why the "Fury" power’s reconnaissance hadn’t given any warning. After all, the attacker wasn’t human, but a giant octopus-shaped sea monster!

Although they had anticipated enemy attacks,

the sight of a real-life sea monster, which they had only seen in movies before, still left Ronald somewhat astonished.

"What on earth is the composition of the water in this sea area that it can sustain a cephalopod of this size..."

In fact, even with the ship about to be completely destroyed, only a small part of the sea monster’s head and tentacles were visible above the water, with a much larger shadow beneath the turbulent waves indicating its massive size.

"We need to go up to the sky, we can’t stay here!"

After loudly reminding Heloise behind him, Ronald immediately activated the abilities of this round and the balanced round, his body tracing an arc as he shot up high into the air before finally hovering.

At this moment, looking down from a high vantage point, their view was severely obstructed by seawater and the typhoon.

However, there was one thing that Ronald was certain of.

— This ship was completely doomed.

"Philis, I don’t remember reading in any books that there is such a large octopus in this world!"

"Don’t ask me! I’ve never even heard of the school that could create such a monster."

Boom—

Having flown into the air and spoken only a few words, a shadow beneath the sea surface launched another tentacle. The gigantic tentacle, several meters in diameter, burst through the turbulent waves of the typhoon, mercilessly striking down below the water’s surface with the splashing waves.

Bang!

In an instant, the spray of water exploded upward, far more realistic than any special effects in movies.

The sea monster, leveraging its enormous body, had an impact like high-yield explosives detonating directly on the sea surface.

"There’s someone fighting!" Witnessing the scene, Philis, who had just taken to the air by the power of Ronald’s spell, immediately exclaimed. The ship they had boarded when setting out to sea had already been completely destroyed by the sea monster, and now this creature lashing out with its tentacles toward the sea’s surface could only be attacking someone!

As Philis spoke, it was Ronald who acted even faster.

He was not entirely sure if his "Astronomy Master," of which he only mastered the first three methods, would be effective against the monster in front of him. Although he had personally experienced the attack method of pulling up cargo ships when fighting a Caster from "Nine Commandments."

But this sea monster...

It was simply too huge!

Judging only by the part protruding above the water, it was definitely a super monster with a body length of over fifty meters. To give a more vivid comparison, if this creature were transported directly to the set of Ultraman, it would still be larger than the average monster!

In order to maximize the possibilities, Ronald began chanting continuously, mobilizing as much power from the original text as possible.

"Earth as a whole is also a meaningful sphere..."

"Earth is located at the central place..."

"In the world of the Earth, there is a point with a fixed ratio to the existence of the sky..."

After several incantations, Ronald truly felt that the original book in his hands reached the best state it could achieve at this moment.

Then, he shifted his gaze downward, locking onto the tentacle on the sea surface.

"Arise!"

"..."

Whether it was an illusion or not.

At the same time Ronald shouted, it seemed that even the typhoon ravaging the sea surface paused for an instant.

Boom—

Suddenly, a bolt of thunder that should not have appeared streaked across the sky.

A thunderclap signified the flow of time starting again, and the storm continued its howling as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Above the sea surface.

The breathtaking scene finally appeared before the eyes of all who were still alive.

The spells of this round and the average round that Ronald activated were successful.

The terrifying behemoth beneath the sea surface, dragging countless seawater, was forcibly pulled up by his spell!

The previous estimate of fifty meters was still mistaken.

This was definitely a gigantic monster beyond imagination, truly the dominator of the ocean!
