The night nearly concealed everything, on this moonless night, dozens of airships moved slowly forward in the sky like ghosts.

The surroundings were eerily silent, with no sound except for the magic engines.

But no one aboard the airships dared to relax. They all stared intently at the screens in the cockpit as if a monster might appear any second.

"Boss."

A voice suddenly came over the communication device in the cockpit of the Grym's Nest.

"What is it, Alice?"

Elliott tapped his small earpiece and switched the call on the terminal over.

He was lying on the chair in the cockpit, his feet propped up on the control panel, looking as though he had no energy left.

There were actually only five people in the Grym's Nest— one in the dining room, another in the engine room, leaving only three in the cockpit.

"Are we really okay passing through the territories of the elves and dragons so blatantly?"

Alice's worried voice came through the earpiece.

"Although our armaments can handle the dragons or elves, our goal is to pass through the enchantment, if we lose..."

"Don't worry," Elliott's calm voice interrupted.

"That's why we threw the elves' watchdogs into the human world and provoked the elves and dragons to war. By now, they must be in chaos and won't even notice us passing overhead... Besides, their magic can only detect our magic. With optical camouflage, they won't pay us any mind."

"Is that so... Well, if boss says so, then so be it."

"Don't call me boss. It's stranger than calling me leader."

With that said, Elliott hung up the phone.

Due to the lack of moonlight, the distant scenery was mostly obscured, visible only through radar, infrared, and magical detection devices to confirm the situation ahead.

"We're about to enter dragon territory."

A male voice came from the terminal.

As he said, after passing through the fractured mountain range, it would lead to the vast forest sea of the elven territory. Although beyond that lay the distant Arctic ice fields, diverting slightly would lead to a bottomless abyss canyon and then to the location of Dragon Valley.

Dragon Valley, almost a place where various gigantic rocks and paths to cloud-capped peaks merged, with countless caves and passages connecting between the rocks and peaks, forming a massive nest.

However, as long as one passed through the area between Dragon Valley and the ice fields, they could make it through to the other side.

"But boss, what's on the other side exactly?"

"Don't call me boss."

Elliott sighed.

"Call me alliance leader..."

As he spoke, the lights in the cockpit suddenly turned red, and a piercing warning sound blared!

Elliott straightened up and adjusted the controls, causing the Grym's Nest to shift dramatically. Then, a ten-meter beam of light shot directly from the position of the Grym's Nest, catching a small airship that had been behind it off guard, directly engulfing it in the beam.

"Airship 14 destroyed, confirmed resurrecting at The Ais Empire."

Looking at the information on the screen, Elliot furrowed his brows.

"Miss World."

The directional broadcast from the Grim Nest emanated Elliot's voice ahead.

"I thought it was the god of this world who came to us first, but I didn't expect you to make the first move."

"That's right."

A thousand meters away in the sky, dear World was floating in mid-air. Unlike usual, she was clad in mechanical armor at this moment. Just as she had finished speaking, she released the handle in her right hand, and the massive cannon that had just emerged from the void slowly rotated before gradually retracting back into the void.

Primary sequence weapon cooling, secondary sequence weapon activating.

With the sound of machinery ringing out, behind dear World, a pair of claws extended from the void and directly connected to the armor behind dear World. Two handles extended forward, appearing at dear World's side.

dear World grabbed the handles and pulled forward, eight claws, each as large as a fortress battleship, burst forth from the void!

"I'm doing this for your own good, why don't you understand~"

dear World smiled slightly as the eight claws lunged towards the fleet of Snake eye's warships!

"Bad kids need to be disciplined~"
