Automated drone-controlled bombardment by a land-based Marquis-class.
Artificial tsunami attack by the Dominator-class at sea.
Satellite bombardment by Space Combatant Integrated Arms Platforms.
Yappy's super-scientific destruction protocols are powerful enough to wipe out a city or two in a single day if they so choose.
However, the Orcs have not been deterred by this massive assault, and have even fought back.
When the drones that disperse the death fog infused with Beatrice's holy power unleashed their biological warfare, orc hunters went drone hunting, and the tsunamis reduced the radius of the attack by forcing coastal cities to abandon their shores.
The same goes for satellite weapons: whenever they enter orbit, their effective range, Orc Champions are there like ghosts and intercept them.
In short, it's not working. Yappy realized how transcendent the orc champions, the equivalent of Holy Knights, were.
-Then crushed by overwhelming mass.
What mass weapon could do that on a battlefield infested with monsters that could intercept the satellites of the universe?
The answer is close at hand.
- Observation of star orbits using the sheath of the Holy Sword. Star summoning sequence can be started.
The comet required to make Lionheart's Blessed Stellar Iron Armor, is used for its purely destructive purpose.
"It's not impossible, but I'm afraid I'm going to need more than just my power to attract something bigger than the last comet."
Beatrice watched as the Demon Lord of Wisdom, Carakael, dropped dozens of comets from the Gate, a recreation of the Last Great War in Lionheart.
But that was only possible because Carakael was a magical gunslinger far beyond Beatrice.
She can't replicate his power on her own.
-What you lack, I make up for with science. With a main device made of stellar iron, the restrictions on space activities are greatly reduced.
He searches for the largest possible comet near Earth's orbit, and settles on a 20-kilometer asteroid, which he drops on Earth---China---the orcs home base.
"This is fucking insane, man, if it wasn't for the Holy Law, this would be the end of the world! It's a reenactment of the Cretaceous Crash!"
Ha-ri and the other common-sense knights of Earth are appalled by this brutally honest plan of destruction.
-Unconditionally true. The inferior organisms should be quiet.
On the other side of the asteroid falling toward Earth, the peacock-class follows the asteroid, carrying Leon and the rest of the TTG Temple's finest.
The globe-spanning peacock is a space battleship. Unable to move without Yappy's main body, which is powered by a divine reactor, even this super weapon pales in comparison to the asteroid.
"What it lacks in numbers, it makes up for in size...the comet that the Lord of Wisdom summoned."
Once upon a time, in the middle of the battlefield as the comet and the sun collided in the final battle against Carakael, Leon looked down at the bluish-blue star Earth, the home of mankind.
"The city will be lost, but it is a sacrifice for humanity's victory over the orcs. Come, let's go."
-Crack!
With that, Yappy fired up the engines on the other side of the asteroid.
Dozens of nuclear engines were installed to propel the asteroid through space, where Beatrice's holy power alone could not pull it.
Advanced nuclear pulse engines, forged by Yakt Spinner, the Holy Knight of Iron and Blacksmithing.
One by one, the engines, each capable of powering dozens of humanity's largest aircraft carriers forever, burst into flames and began to accelerate toward the asteroid.
* * * * *
"Crazy------"
The orcs watched the fall of the asteroid that blocked out the sun.
Even the Black Orcs, who had seen all sorts of weird things in their years of warfare, were surprised.
"Intercept!"
"Nuke it!"
The asteroid was close enough to be visible to the naked eye. There aren't many weapon systems to counter it, and the orcs launch nuclear missiles.
-Kaaaaaaaah!!!
China's legacy, the intercontinental ballistic missiles they've accumulated by ignoring UN offers of denuclearization and paying for expensive maintenance erupt from the ground.
In this war, nuclear weapons are not to be feared. The knights of the TTG Temple have a built-in conceptual defense that nullifies ranged attacks.
The same is true for the soldiers and Hunters under the aegis of the high-rank knights.
However, the destructive power of the nuke itself cannot be ignored, as its explosion crushes the terrain.
Panicked by the shocking reality of a falling asteroid, they wasted no time in mashing the launch button and launching twenty-four such nuclear missiles.
-Ten seconds to impact!
The fission reaction caused by the megaton warheads soon struck the asteroid with the tyrannical pressure of the atmosphere.
"Ugh---!"
The flash of the explosion blinded them for a moment, but they soon saw the result with the naked eye.
"Ahhh------"
The asteroid was unscathed. Dozens of nuclear missiles fired in haste were not enough to destroy a 20-kilometer mass asteroid.
It might have been better if it had been fired at its most vulnerable moment, when it would have been incinerated as it entered the atmosphere.
But even that would be wishful thinking. The comet was pulled from the heavens by Lionheart's secret arts and imbued with divine power by the holy men.
How foolish to destroy it with a weapon of man's making.
"Use it."
The Great Khan gave his permission. Instantly, Maghar, urgently summoned from the Shanhaiguan, answered.
"Yes, High Khan."
Maghar, champion of the Orc God Gokrok, gestured to the 'great tower' before him.
"Gokrok's gaze. Activate."
A great tower with a blazing green gaze flashes down upon the falling meteor.
[With my grace, wipe out the tin cans]
The tower of a shamanic deity that brutally burns those not in its favor. A green beam of light shot from its massive gaze.
-Bam---!
Suddenly, the surrounding sounds disappeared.
Kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak-kwak!
A booming sound, like a crashing wave, echoed towards the heavens.
──────!!
The asteroid collides with the green beam and suddenly, the asteroid stops falling.
"------!?"
It was an unbelievable sight to see the asteroid, which hadn't slowed down since entering the atmosphere, stop over the city.
Or maybe it was the feeling of being propelled into space?
-Tactical maneuver.
At that moment, an iron power enveloped the asteroid, it was an iron shield to withstand the opponent's attacks. The asteroid seemed to withstand Gokrok's gaze as it was polished by the Blacksmith God.
"Helkan, your great warrior is here!"
The giant statue moved. It was the Statue of Devotion. From its base, the embodied power grew larger and larger until it finally touched the falling asteroid.
"Abomination. Smash it."
Balbaza, champion of the Orc God Helkan, poured his power into the asteroid, and the Helkan's spirit body, revealed by the Gokrok's gaze, swung a massive fist at the asteroid.
The moment the fist collided with the asteroid-──
-Crack!
The asteroid shattered into pieces and fragmented scattered in all directions.
"Crazy!"
"No way!"
On the other side of the asteroid, the knights aboard the Peacock are horrified at what they see.
Who could have imagined that a 20-kilometer asteroid would be shattered by such a destructive force?
"We're not done yet, tin cans."
Champion of the Orc Hunting God Skunik, Skira raised her great javelin.
The great javelin of Skunik aims at the peacock-class that has emerged from behind the shattered asteroid.
It is a giant bomb, the orcs most powerful throwing weapon, imbued with the power of the Hunting God and fired by the Champion himself.
"Impale and die, my prey."
Boom!
And with that, a massive javelin erupted from the ground.
* * * * *
"They smashed the asteroid, that makes no sense!"
The ship's interior is in an uproar, and rightly so.
It's an asteroid. It might not be the size of a real planet, but the unreality of destroying a 20-kilometer star is something straight out of a Hollywood movie.
"It's impossible------"
Holy Knight Koo Dae-sung was stunned by the reality in front of him, but what about the other knights?
"I can't believe they made it that far."
"Your Excellency Karina?"
All eyes turned to her, as if she knew what was coming.
[Karina.]
Leon appears on the screen, his tongue still in his cheek, but he doesn't look like he's witnessed the impossible.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
[The idols of Helkan and Gokrok, then there must be a third idol.]
"An orc idol is a monstrosity, one for a historical battle. To have three of them is unheard of."
[The very existence of the Orc High Khan is unprecedented]
The Orcs, savage raiders, have a strange habit of erecting "idols" in their strongholds.
The strongest divine weapon possible only when the divine power of the orc god worshiped by the great tribe is fully filled.
[Coming soon, there are probably only three people in this age who can handle it]
One of them is in Shanhaiguan.
Karina realized her role.
"Lord Spinner, we will move to the stern."
She grabs her sword and heads out. Karina strapped on Yappy's antigravity device and climbed up the windswept ship.
"Karina."
Leon was there first and held a holy spear.
"May I borrow it?"
"You can carry it."
Karina shook her head at Leon's words.
"Your Majesty must have all the power you can muster, and besides--I've faced that Skira's great javelin once."
Without hesitation, Leon handed his holy lance to Karina.
The Lionheart King's holy spear.
Unlike the common Holy Knight's holy sword and holy lance, which are blessed by a single god, the Lionheart King's holy lance is blessed by all of the gods.
The Lionhearted King's holy artifact can contain the full power of any number of gods.
"Ventasis, Dragonia."
Karina called to the two gods.
[Ready, my avenger]
Ventasis, god of darkness and vengeance.
[I had the power to bring forth my children, but I leave it to you.]
Dragonia, god of gold and contracts.
Karina Dragonia is a Holy Knight who represents both gods.
She holds a holy lance that contains the power of both gods.
"Die, tin cans!"
The hunting god's spear is hurled. A great javelin that shudders the city with its sonic boom alone. Against it──
"Skira's great javelin is a must-have. If that's the case, I'll have to smash it from the front."
Karina dashes from the peacock-class ship's bow, and the moment she steps on it, Yappy's electronic catapults propel her vertically ahead of the ship.
To the hunters of the Orc Hunting God, Skunik Great Javelin is not simply for hunting common beasts.
This is a wild land where murder and savagery reign supreme. The orcs have fought endlessly against the menacing beasts that threaten their clans.
For the hunters of Skira, who ride beasts under the protection of their hunting god, javelins are meant to hunt the great beasts.
In the wilds, where life and death can mean the difference between life and death, the spears of the orc hunters have always kept their clans safe.
The Great Javelin of Skira is its pinnacle.
An artifact of the Orc God of Hunting, it is a deadly javelin that can be thrown as long as the champion who wields it is alive.
Its piercing power can slay even the beasts that call themselves gods.
'The power of darkness is the ultimate cutting power. The golden power is the savage destruction of a dragon.'
Karina's two opposing forces, Ventasis, the god of darkness and vengeance, and Dragonia, the god of gold and pacts, specialize in killing and destruction.
The darkness of Ventasis sharpens the blades of his avengers. Formerly known as a dragon god, Dragonia's destructive power is so overwhelming that even his status as a covenant god cannot hide it.
'The Holy Law, with its destructive power alone, is unsuitable for personal use, but ------'
Spreading enormous power is a flashiness that only young people like, Karina is a thoroughly practical character, but at the same time, her experience of sleight-of-hand allows her to focus this enormous power with precision.
The tip of the holy spear touches Skira's great javelin. With this power, which is difficult to control, it pierces a large javelin targeting the peacock-class from the front.
"Hmph, this brings back memories. I've never fought Skira's great javelin before."
She is also an Orc Butcher, second only to the Lionheart. Against orcs, she's a bit of a hardened Holy Knight.
"Die, tin can!"
"You're a nuisance. Get out of here, beast."
The next moment, two massive forces collide in the sky above the city, and──
All the clouds within a hundred kilometers radius were pushed away.
