The Magician of Sound - Chapter 565

South Carolina.

At the coastal South Carolina, a soldier was staring at the sea together with her friend. “I have been here for a long time, but no matter how long I stare at the sea, it still makes me want to say how beautiful it is…”

Her friend furrowed her eyebrows and shrugged. “We don’t have that liberty anymore. Traveling across the sea is impossible because of the sea Magical Beasts. It’s been a few hundred years that humans can’t do anything about this…”

“Yeah. I hope that in the future the sea can be crossed again. Even playing on the beach alone needs to gamble with your life.” She sighed.

“I—” When she was about to reply, her expression changed.

Three giant crabs emerged from the sea, walking on the beach. She quickly raised her gun and aimed at the crabs, “We need to eliminate them first.”

“This is Tango one. Headquarters, we spotted three crabs coming out of the sea and we are planning to eliminate the threat. Requesting perm—” The soldier tried to inform the base about the crabs but soon stopped when she saw more and more crabs making their appearance.

“Tango one? Can you repeat that please?”

Unfortunately, there was no answer from her because what she found was far beyond her imagination. Thousands of magical beasts emerged from the sea, moving toward the beach.

Panicked, the soldier hurriedly informed them of the condition. “We have an emergency. Thousands of Magical Beasts are coming out of the sea. I repeat, we have an emergency.”

When they heard the report, they quickly sent the information to the central base while getting the visual of what happened.

“Call Commander Nathan!” Many soldiers who saw the visual from the camera next to the beach shouted in unison.

In twenty seconds, Nathan entered the room and saw tens of thousands of Magical Beasts began to appear. “Holy… Code Red. Tens of thousands of Magical Beasts have appeared, requesting back up.”

The soldiers followed his command while Nathan calmly gave another order. “Send all our troops here. There is a high chance that the enemy is using this place to gain control of the base.”

The moment they received Nathan’s report, all soldiers were mobilized.

Tens of thousands might be a big number, but compared to millions of Magical Beasts, that number was only one percent.

However, Ria Ross bent on sending the entire troops because she knew this was the perfect place to attack them.

Humanity would have less responsive time compared to any other city. Also, they could send an ambush from Washington or Delaware had the enemy attacked Virginia or North Carolina. The rest of the states were simply too far from the center, which took them longer to attack.

Hence, seeing the number of the enemies was enough for Ria to determine this attack.

President Brent met Ria Ross for one last time.

He was standing with a serious expression, asking, “Are you sure about this decision?”

“Yes. The enemy has come. It’s time for me to go.”

“How I wish I could help you on the battlefield… This is a war for humanity’s survival, but I can’t go with you to the battlefield because of this stupid position.”

“It’s nothing. You have your own task, we have ours.” Ria shrugged.

“Still, those bastards. Why did the EU Base and United Asia refuse to help? This is their fight too. I want to f*ck them up.” Brent gritted his teeth.

Ria laughed and said, “They’re already here.”

“Huh?” Brent furrowed his eyebrows, confused. He had talked with the current leader of the Union, Marsha, and United Asia’s Prime Minister. Both of them refused to send their force because they were afraid the enemies would attack them when they were most vulnerable.

Ria smiled and said playfully, “Have you forgotten who our commander-in-chief is?”

“Kai Carter…” Brent suddenly came to a realization. His body was shaking as he almost fell on his butt. “Don’t tell me…”

Ria made a smug smile and left. “Trust us. You will have countless paperwork to deal with after this…”

Brent closed his eyes and shook his head helplessly, defeated. “That’s something I can do.”

Ria left the room and headed straight to the deployment.

Meanwhile, Nathan found more and more monsters emerging from the sea. The number was already beyond a hundred thousand and it kept increasing.

“Kh…” Nathan gritted his teeth and said, “How do we handle this… Our number is currently equal, but they will continue to appear…”

He asked his subordinate. “What happens to the other coasts? In Rio and Buenos.”

The subordinates quickly contacted the one in charge of that mission and replied, “Sir, they are gone.”

“In that case, this place will indeed become the epicenter of this war.” Nathan clicked his tongue and contacted Ria Ross. “Ria Ross, can you hear me?”

“Yep. Loud and clear.” Ria calmly responded. “How many monsters are there?”

“A hundred thousand… More are coming.” Nathan waved his hand to his subordinates, “Call Ethan, Jose, and Paolo to head straight to the coast. They are going to defend it from the very front until reinforcements arrive.”

“We have the report, Sir. All three of them have arrived. Your granddaughter and her friends have been waiting for action too.”

“…” Nathan nodded and said to Ria, “How many will come to our aid? And how long do we need to wait?”

“We have moved our force close to your area to be honest, so the reinforcement will keep coming… Starting from fifteen minutes. I will be there in thirty minutes. As for our number, considering we need to guard the surroundings, there will be a total of two million soldiers.” Ria answered while checking the data.

“Okay, I understand. I will buy you enough time.” Nathan thought for a moment. “Do you have any information about Kai?”

“I have sent him a message and he will be there as soon as possible. There is still one more task he needs to do, he said.”

“Understood.” Nathan then asked, “I will be waiting for you.”

…

While those two were talking, Michelle and the others had arrived not far from the beaches. They were standing on top of a tall building together with Jose and Ethan.

“Are you sure we can use the radio this time?” Michelle asked, glancing at Ethan.

“It’s fine. This kind of war is too huge, so each commander will give orders according to their situation. And this is a head-on confrontation, there’s no need to hold back. It’s not like we have an ambush.” Ethan smiled and explained while looking at the numerous magical beasts and the soldiers that had been stationed on the ground.

“This is my first time seeing so many Magical Beasts.” Ethan still couldn’t help but astonish by the sheer number alone. The monsters stretched from the left corner to the right corner of his vision. The number was simply massive.

“Five hundred thousands… No, it’s close to one million already. They are really not holding back anymore. This sea race, I really want to beat them up.” Jose harrumphed while observing the horizon.

Suddenly, she found something weird growing on the horizon. She couldn’t help but squint her eyes, trying to figure out what was happening. “What’s that?”

The rest came closer and followed her line of sight, finding a mountain rising above the sea.

However, they soon realized what it was and dropped their jaws to the ground. It was simply impossible for it to happen, especially without an Earthquake.

Leah couldn’t help but mutter, “Tsunami, huh.”
