Chapter 338 The Giant Beast is Coming
Time passed by minute by minute, but the city of Parami was not quiet late at night.

The army's heavy firepower was mobilized to a fortress ten kilometers west of the city. Such a large-scale mobilization could not be hidden from everyone's eyes and ears. For a time, rumors spread throughout the city, and many people speculated whether it was the Fanged Hounds that attacked the city. Some people had even begun to pack up and prepare to leave the city to escape, but more people gathered in the church's city hall to seek explanations and shelter.

But obviously, they could not get the truth, and could not even meet with the top leaders of the Vatican.

At this moment, Bishop Jacob, Battle Sister Salina, Paladin Hank, Luo Jun and Ophelia were not in the city. They all went to the fortress to wait.

It can be said that all the top combat forces in the Holy See are on high alert for the arrival of Mosaius.

At the same time, they were also closely watching the speed at which the positioning device moved.

"The light spot that is suspected to be Mosaius is coming in a straight line at a constant speed, and is still 200 kilometers away. The other light spot has been hanging behind it for a distance, keeping a certain distance and moving forward carefully. It should be a member of the exploration team monitoring its movements."

After listening to the report, Jacob nodded, stood on the top of the fortress, looked west, and frowned.

Luo Jun, who was not far away, was taking the time to regulate his internal breath and adapt to the state of rapid progress.

Looking around, various city defense equipment has been arranged on the top of the city wall. The large-caliber gun barrels are all facing west. The operators are not even ordinary soldiers, but iron cans with steam coming out of them.

This kind of oversized city defense equipment is difficult to operate flexibly by manpower.

There are two rows of self-propelled artillery parked on the ground outside the fortress. This kind of weapon is not as powerful or large as the huge city defense artillery, but it is more flexible.

At the same time, there were several airships hovering in the sky, with two rows of powerful bombs hanging below, ready to bomb the enemy at any time.

All the soldiers had no idea what kind of enemy they were about to face, they only knew that this was a battle that depended on the survival of the city of Parami. The military orders were as firm as a mountain, and they were predicting the upcoming battle while making the final adjustments to their weapons.

Finally, as the sun slowly rose, the sunlight shone from behind everyone to the earth, illuminating the golden desert all the way, and on the distant horizon, a small ball of sand was reflected...

"Is that... the dust kicked up by the army? Or is it a sandstorm?"

Standing on a tower several dozen meters high, the horizon was less than ten kilometers away, which should be very close. All the soldiers became nervous and began to operate their weapons.

But Bishop Jacob showed a surprised expression. The report just now said that they were still two hundred kilometers away. How come they arrived so quickly?

"Report the distance again!" Jacob ordered.

"Um... there are still about 130 kilometers..."

"It's still that far away?" Jacob looked towards the horizon in surprise. There, the cloud of dust was getting higher and larger, but there was no sign of it getting closer...

"Don't think of your opponent as an army or a monster..." Luo Jun said, "Think about its size... It's like a mountain, and what we see now is just the tip of the mountain that has just emerged!"

"High mountains?" Jacob looked into the distance. Although he had known for a long time that Mosaius was of amazing size, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he still had no specific concept of it.

A beast that is as big as a mountain...

Soon, the soldiers also realized that something was wrong. The cloud of sand kept rising and getting bigger. From a small cloud at the beginning, it gradually turned into a sandstorm that covered the sky. It was as if an illusory wall of wind and sand was slowly pushing towards them. The terrifying feeling of oppression made the horizon seem small!
"What exactly are we facing..." The young officer Raymond widened his eyes, then rushed up to the tower excitedly: "Your Excellency the Bishop, please tell us, what exactly is our enemy!" "To be honest, I'm not sure either." The bishop checked the positioning map: "What is the maximum range of your city defense artillery?"

"Range?" Raymond frowned and asked, "In terms of elevation angle, the maximum range is about 35 kilometers, and the effective range is within 10 kilometers."

"Adjust the angle to the longest range," Bishop Jacob advised, "Wait for my message, and then fire together!"

"It's hard to guarantee the accuracy and power of a projectile at a high angle..." Raymond hesitated.

"If the kinetic energy is not enough, we can use high-explosive grenades." Jacob looked at the growing dust in the distance: "As for accuracy, it is the least of our concerns..."

Mosaius moved very quickly, and the huge dust soon had the effect of covering the sky and the sun, making the city defense soldiers tremble. Raymond kept urging, "Are we not in the firing range yet?"

"No..." Jacob looked at the light spot on the map. It was still forty kilometers away...

There are still a few dozen kilometers to go, and it already feels like this...

Luo Jun was also a little shocked. According to estimates, Mosaius was at least several thousand meters high. Adding on the large amount of sand and dust covering its body, it looked like it was probably nearly ten thousand meters in size!
This is not the altitude, but the actual height from its feet to its head!

Moreover, this thing is not like a mountain, pointed at the top and wide at the bottom, but it is a whole big mass. The visual sense of oppression is much stronger than that of a real mountain!

Numbers are the most honest, but also the most deceptive!

Thousands or tens of thousands of meters, it sounds easy to say, but when you really see it, it’s a completely different concept!
Is this kind of monster really something that human power can match?
"Alright! We're 30 kilometers away!" Jacob immediately notified the city defense forces: "Open fire!"

Boom boom boom!

The sound of the city defense artillery came one after another. The shells were fired at the farthest elevation angle, drawing a huge parabola, and finally were submerged in the sand and dust without causing a single ripple...

"This..." Jacob was also a little dumbfounded. He never expected that the army's firepower would be so small in front of Mosaius...

At this moment, several thick tornadoes suddenly appeared in the distance, like spiral air columns connecting heaven and earth, and began to rotate around the sandstorm, continuously sucking away the sand and dust!
"That's the power of the elemental faction!" Battle Sister Salina said in surprise: "Who has this extremely strong wind attribute ability?"

"It's not the elementalists, it's the treasure." Luo Jun knew that this must be the exploration team starting to take action to stop Mosaius. There was no particularly powerful elementalist in the team, so there was only one possibility.

Master's Bagua Tiger Finger!
In the vast nature, the Bagua Finger Tiger can actually exert such tremendous power, it is worthy of being a mythical treasure!

This is just a side confirmation that the master is indeed safe and sound...

Just when Luo Jun breathed a sigh of relief, a reminder sound suddenly rang in his mind.

"Trigger mission: Stop Mosaius!"
