Chapter 493: Spatial Displacement, Reversed Directions, This is the Power of God!
Five round iron balls, propelled by electromagnetic force, sped towards the distant Tower of the Heavens at twenty times the speed of sound.
A distance of two kilometers, at such a speed, would not even require a second to cross…
However, the situation was quite the opposite. The speeding iron balls, under the influence of some force, gradually slowed down until they barely reached t...

Chapter 492: You Shall Hold the Kingdom of Heaven, as the Right Hand of God!
At noon, in the Seccas Empire, celebrated as the 'earthly paradise' and 'where stars shine brightly,' the sound of artillery fire was incessant outside the sacred city, but inside, it was unexpectedly quiet, or perhaps it would be more apt to describe it as deathly silent.
Countless devout followers lay unconscious on the streets and squares, faces still adorned with a fervor that came from deep ...

Chapter 491: The Scorch Cannon, A Nuclear Blast at the Holy City!
It is commonly known that the changes in the moon's phases are related to the sun's radiation and its orbital period around the planet.
According to the observations of wizards from the prophecy school, the lunar cycle in this otherworldly realm is about 30.25 days, roughly equivalent to a month.
No, perhaps it should be said the other way around: the number of days in a month is determined by the cyc...

"What do you mean by 'they all speak English'? Can't we, the British, speak English? What do you mean by 'the accent is off'? I also think that the guys from Canada, as well as those from the southern United States, don't speak proper English!" General Arthur Wellesley was itching to drag this real Quebecois troublemaker, who spoke English with a strange accent, out and have him shot a hundred times over. Yet, his reason told him he really couldn't do anythin...

Chapter 479: Siege
General Arthur Wellesley began to withdraw his troops from New York. Withdrawal is always the most complex operation, especially when you have an army with the intent to pursue right in front of you, it becomes even more troublesome. General Andrew Jackson, who took over the defense command in New York, although not as experienced as General Arthur Wellesley, was not someone to be taken lightly. Once he confirmed the British were withdrawing, he began to hara...

The safety of New York, in some respects, is even more crucial than that of Washington. This city is the true essence of the Northern United States. Therefore, when the British forces, under the leadership of General Arthur Wellesley, besieged New York, the United States truly felt immense pressure. Even when the state militias from the South attempted to relieve New York but were roundly defeated by the British, the Southern call for revenge significantly di...

However, the British, after all, are not comparable to those barbarians from the colonies. The British of this era still possess a robust martial virtue, even within the British Army. Despite the demoralization they've suffered from the security operations in Ireland over the years, a few cannon shots were not enough to cause any significant issues. It was indeed disheartening that the wealthy fled first, but despite the heartache, the British defense did not...

Strictly speaking, against defenses riddled with bombproof shelters, barbed wire, and trenches, relying solely on cannons cannot fully solve the problem.

Even with the Panama Railway operational, allowing for the import of large quantities of saltpeter from Chile, the consumption of saltpeter was significant, an...

Because of Luo's actions, the casualty rate of the first phase's examinees dropped to zero, thereby increasing the success rate for passing the first phase of the test.

An aura influenced by emotions or willpower can usually have a significant impact on ordinary people. Theoretically, using one's aura to overpower another's consciousness can even lead to death without laying a finger on them.
If both individuals are Nen users, unless there's a huge disparity in strength, it's difficult for the aura to have any effect.
Of course, if the strength gap is sufficiently large, the stronger party can use their au...

After the gate was closed, Qi'an patted his chest, "How come even a minor True Immortal can beat me now? Could it be that I've been secluded in cultivation for too long and am out of touch with the times?"
