Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

A similar scene is playing out in other countries as well. After the end of the constant time in Earth's space, the remaining navies of each country will be directly teleported to the vicinity of the Enterprise, where Muirsey is located.

Chapter 452 The Second Great Collapse (5)

Two days after the launch of the Shenzhou Taixu Mountain Giant Pagoda

In outer space, a pink light continuously struck the shield enveloping the Earth, creating ripples.

But it was all in vain. No matter how hard Alicia tried to break through the Sunbathing Defense Shield generated by the Tower of Babel in Mount Taixu, it was to no avail. Moreover, she did not dare to go all out.

The magical girls inside St. Freya Space City watched in silence as Principal Alicia disappeared into the distance.

"Still unable to contact the director or vice principal?" Lucifer asked.

After a moment of silence, someone answered.

"There's still no way. All means of communication with Earth have been intercepted by the Solar Defense System. We can only observe the situation on Earth using optical methods now."

"Is there really no other way? Are we just going to watch from space?"

How about using lights to create Morse code for communication?

"We tried, but there was no response from Earth. All the major countries on Earth are engulfed in war, from Europe, Asia, the Americas, to the Mu continent, everything is a scene of endless conflict."

"We can only watch from the sidelines for now; we have no other means of contacting Earth, let alone entering it. The only teleportation device within the space city that could connect us to Earth has already been destroyed."

When someone mentioned the teleportation device, the magical girls around them all looked rather displeased.

Since there are quite a few magical girls from China, most of them didn't even have time to realize what was happening when the anomalies first appeared on Earth.

But soon they suddenly discovered that some magical girls from China had formed a tactical squad and destroyed the teleportation device of St. Freya Space City at top speed.

This also made Alicia and the others realize that the 8th Witch appeared together with the 7th Witch, and that many magical girls from Shenzhou had already been controlled.

The magical girls inside the space city were forced to fight against the magical girls of Shenzhou who were being controlled.

However, the magical girls controlled by the 8th Witch displayed an unbelievable fighting level far exceeding their own abilities, as if they were a single entity, and almost killed some of the magical girls on their first encounter.

Fortunately, there are many magical girls in the space city, quite a few of whom have mastered the ability to heal with magic, and there is also an S-class magical girl whose power is "Benefit of All Beings".

After finally defeating the controlled magical girls from Shenzhou, they imprisoned them all.

This battle, though not large in scale, did not result in many deaths, but quite a few magical girls were seriously injured.

However, with the teleportation device destroyed and the Sunbathing Shield blocking it, the magical girl with the ability to jump through space is currently unable to ignore this Sunbathing Shield, which is mixed with magic.

As a result, the magical girls completely lost their means of traveling to Earth.

The magical girls remained silent, their gazes fixed on Earth with complex emotions, and also on the pink light that kept trying to penetrate it.

“Actually, there is a way,” a magical girl suddenly said.

"Selena? You have a way?!"

"I remember your powers are related to space, does that mean you can now pass directly through the Sunbathing Defense Shield?!"

Selena listened to the other magical girls' joyful voices but did not respond immediately.

"..."

Seeing this, the other delighted magical girls gradually fell silent.

"Principal Alicia has six witch gems, and counting the 7th witch's, she has seven."

Selena's voice was flat and indifferent, making it difficult to discern any emotional fluctuations.

"I have a relatively in-depth understanding of those six witch gems."

When she said those words, the other magical girls nodded silently. Indeed, as one of the earliest first-generation magical girls of St. Freya Academy, Selena had considerable authority and could directly access and study witch gems.

Then, the magical girls heard what Selena said next.

"The database within the Witch of Reason's Gem should contain records of technologies for breaking through such planetary shields. The power of [Scientific Reason] encompasses all technological creations; if there are technologies for creating planetary shields, then naturally there are technologies for breaking them."

"The power of the Void Witch's Gem can manipulate space. Research on the [Existence of Void] power has led to the theory of using technological means to open portals. This gem could also directly open a portal to the interior of Earth."

"The power of the Thunder Witch's Gem, [Basic Thunder], can also dispel the Planetary Shield. After all, although the Planetary Shield is mixed with magic, its main body is still various high-energy particles, and the Thunder Witch's power can still manipulate these high-energy particles that make up the Planetary Shield."

"The Wind Witch's Gem has rather unique powers, but the [Flowing Wind] effect should influence the particle flow of the planetary shield, so opening a small to medium-sized entrance should be possible."

"The Ice Witch's Gem Power [Stagnation Ice] and the Death Witch's Gem Power [Death of Living Beings] may not have very effective methods, and it's unknown whether they can stagnate or kill the planetary shield."

"Only the witch might know this."

After Selena finished speaking, she remained silent for a while.

The other magical girls remained silent, their gazes fixed on the pink light in space.

In short...

Selena uttered just two words, then opened her mouth, unsure whether to continue.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and most of the magical girls present knew why Selena hadn't continued speaking.

"Anyway, what?" Lucifer didn't care about any of that; she frowned and looked at Selena.

Selena pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, closed her eyes, and spoke in a cold and hard tone.

"...In short, any of the Witch Gems has more than one way to open the Sunbathing Defense Shield. Once it's open, we can immediately rush to Earth to support Director Muirsey. The 8th Witch will be no match for us!"

"..."

Why?

Some of the young magical girls who had just enrolled wanted to ask why Principal Alicia, who possessed seven witch gems and had received a vast amount of magical power from all the magical girls before her, could not open the Sunbathing Defense Shield.

However, these young magical girls quickly realized something and fell silent.

However, one of the brown-haired, heterochromatic-eyed seventh-generation magical girl students still spoke up instinctively.

"Huh? But why hasn't the principal called yet... mmm!"

"Pado, stop talking!" (whispering)

Before the magical girl could finish speaking, her mouth was covered by her classmate.

The other magical girl upperclassmen were glancing at her subtly.

However, the magical girls then suddenly heard Selena's cold voice.

There's nothing to hide.

Selena then said...

"Principal Alicia is indeed unable to unleash the power of any of the Witch's Gems and cannot dispel the Sunbathing Shield."

"She can't do anything."

Off the coast of Tokyo, afternoon

More than a dozen optically stealthy fighter jets silently flew over Tokyo, photographing everything in the city and transmitting the images to the Enterprise.

"Chief, we have arrived in Tokyo," the adjutant's voice roused Muirsey from his half-asleep state.

"..."

Muirsey remained silent for a while after waking up.

The three-day voyage went smoothly. After crossing the Pacific Ocean from Los Angeles, the Enterprise was searched by the Chinese Air Force and Navy, but it was not detected because it was cloaked and the Chinese did not search it with full force. This allowed the Enterprise to successfully cross the Pacific Ocean and arrive in Tokyo.

Muirsey knew why the Enterprise was going so smoothly.

Because the cost was that Emilia was seriously injured, and Mu Continent lost almost all of its air force and navy. The battle ended in total annihilation, keeping the main forces of Shenzhou's navy and air force tied up around Mu Continent.

Ten more army groups from Shenzhou were also on the Mu Continent, engaging in fierce battles with the Mu Continent's army.

If it weren't for Emilia and the Mu Continent's army's desperate delay, the Enterprise would never have been able to fly to the Western Pacific so easily.

In addition, Du Shushu forcibly stabilized Earth's space for two days; otherwise, Shenzhou would have already sent more troops out of its territory. The torches that Wei Hua had unfurled also resisted the influence of the Taixu Mountain Tower, allowing most of humanity to remain conscious instead of fainting.

Fortunately, in the past two days, Muirsay and Wilvie have managed to devise a device that can temporarily resist the effects of the Taixu Mountain Tower.

Muirsay sighed heavily, nodded to his adjutant, and then looked at the images of Tokyo on the screen.

"They've reached their limit too."

While pondering how much longer Du Shushu and Wei Hua could hold out, Muirsay looked at Tokyo Prefecture, which had been almost fortified by Shenzhou.

"Prepare to set up teleportation beacons so that the remaining troops from various locations can teleport here."

"Take Tokyo as our base of operations, then head to Mount Taixu in Shenzhou."

"Yes," the adjutant replied.

Tokyo, a city that has been under the rule of China since the Third Witch Incident, has now been completely fortified.

Looking at the fortress defenses everywhere and the Chinese troops stationed there, Muirsey was honestly reluctant to confront this tough nut to crack. However, the Enterprise couldn't avoid Tokyo, which was not only a fortress but also the largest Chinese military base in Japan.

The invisibility of the Enterprise is only based on the premise that Shenzhou does not conduct a comprehensive search; it is not that it is completely invisible.

Muirsey also needed a place for Rhine Lab's mobile base vehicles to build military bases, war camps and factories, as well as for remnants of the army around the world to rest and be stationed temporarily.

Indeed, they are remnants of armies from various countries around the world.

In the first round of full-scale attacks by China, within just one day, the troops directly teleported from China had already occupied the capitals and major industrial cities of most countries in the world and captured most of the country's high-ranking officials.

Without logistics and command, the armies of various countries, facing a Chinese army fully equipped with advanced technology and even with interconnected minds, were naturally routed.

The soldiers of Shenzhou controlled by the 8th Witch can communicate directly through their consciousness, which completely exceeded the expectations of Muirsey and the various countries.

This is one of the reasons why the Mu Continent army suffered such a devastating defeat.

The last European city to fall was Moscow. Despite the unity of the people and soldiers of Moscow, they were ultimately no match for the Chinese army, which truly connected every soldier with the spirit of China.

Although a man named Qianjie emerged during the Battle of Moscow, who could easily defeat the Shenzhou soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor with his bare hands like a superman, unfortunately, he was then blasted to smithereens by the plasma cannons fired by Shenzhou's White Tiger self-propelled artillery.

Even ordinary magical girls can't withstand the ultra-high temperature plasma clusters that reach 1 million degrees Celsius, let alone ordinary humans.

"The constant time period has ended."

Muirsey looked up and sensed the disappearance of Du Shushu's power; she no longer had even the slightest bit of magic left.

Next up is Weihua; she can only hold on for a few more minutes.

"Director, the transmission beacon has been deployed!"

The adjutant hurriedly reported.

"Initiate the teleportation."

Muirsay gave the order, looking toward the pink light in outer space that had been relentlessly assaulting the Sun Defense System for two days and two nights.

【Xia...】

Muirsey closed her somewhat tired eyes, and when she opened them again, they were replaced by composure and calmness.

Outside the Enterprise, warships of all sizes, from aircraft carriers and large transport ships to destroyers and frigates, continuously lit up in the teleportation screen and then landed on the sea, stirring up layers of waves.

Inside the Enterprise, a large number of battle-hardened army units were transferred to various decks of the Enterprise, and then quickly loaded into Rhine Labs' air force transport planes and flew out of the Enterprise to make room for more troops.

With no air force transmissions coming, in order to cover the remaining army and air force of various countries as they were transported to the Enterprise, the air force pilots of various countries almost began to risk their lives to delay the controlled Chinese army.

"Director, this is Marshal XXX of the Soviet Union reporting for duty."

"Sir, this is U.S. Five-Star General XXXX reporting for duty."

"Chief, a German general..."

"Sir, a British general..."

One after another, weary marshals and generals hurriedly approached Muirsay.

"You all take a rest for now. I'll take command of this battle."

"...Yes." After hesitating for a moment, the generals from various countries handed over command. They knew themselves that they were unable to command, nor were they capable of commanding, their own country's army.

Most of the remaining armies of various countries have now been teleported to the Enterprise. The highest-ranking commanders of these countries who have temporarily taken command were only major generals. The high-ranking generals of various countries have basically been wiped out by China.

The Mu Continent did not send troops over because Muels stopped them. The Mu Continent had paid too high a price, and Emilia, despite her injuries, had to guard Eden and command the remaining Mu Continent troops. They were no longer able to send troops over.

Muirsey had no choice but to step in herself; she was now the only one with the prestige and ability to command this remnant army from various countries.

Muirsay connected the entire army's communications, transmitting his voice to every soldier.

"I am Muirsey, and I urge all warriors to continue the battle! We have no time to rest; we must take Tokyo as quickly as possible, head to Mount Taixu in Shenzhou, and destroy that colossal tower that will seize the consciousness of every human being!"

"Fight for the future of humanity, brave warriors! I will go to hell with you!" Muirseth's calm voice had a magical quality, soothing the soldiers' exhaustion.

"Fight for the future of humanity!!!" The human soldiers, who already knew their mission and had been waiting all along, shouted firmly.
