Alex shook his head blankly, he only knew that daylight was everywhere and could illuminate every corner of the world. Couldn't this thing reach there instantly and have speed?
"The speed of light is 299,500 kilometers per second, which is enough to circle the continent eight times!" Glenn explained while casting his gaze towards the griffin riders galloping in the distance.
Flying at high speed and under the cover of night, we could only see figures looming in the darkness, making it difficult to aim...
But Glenn was not worried, and soon activated the third ring magic - [Heat Perception]! The whole world changed in Glenn's eyes in an instant. The surroundings were still dark, but the flying griffin knights were extremely eye-catching and turned into red spots of light.
This heat-sensing technique is the latest achievement of their research on light. It allows the caster to see something named infrared by the magic star...
The identities of hunter and prey changed at this moment. Glenn raised his hands, and a scorching ball of light immediately appeared around him. Then a circular reflective layer appeared around the ball of light, blocking all the light...
At this moment, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. The leading Wade could even clearly see the uniformed figures on the airship, and also sensed the fluctuations of magic power.
"Is it a wizard?" Wade thought to himself, but he didn't show any fear.
Their agility in the air is not comparable to that of the devil's followers. Although the opponent's magic is powerful, as long as they can't hit them, they will be living targets!
A sneer appeared on the corner of Wade's mouth, but the next moment a warning suddenly appeared in his heart. Then a powerful beam of light as thick as his index finger shot out from the airship not far in front of him. It was much faster than his reaction limit, and it instantly penetrated the divine protection that he had set up before, drawing a gorgeous arc in the air...
What a fast light… This thought flashed through Wade’s mind before his entire body was cut in two, along with the severed head of the griffin…
The same scene was played out in various places in the sky above the royal capital. One hundred and fifty airships were intentionally arranged into a semi-circular array, and then a massacre ensued!
Strong beams of light lit up on each airship. Before the Griffin Knights could sense the danger, the dense beams of light had already reached them...
The attack came so fast that in a flash, hundreds of griffin knights had their bodies chopped off and fell from the sky with looks of confusion or joy on their faces.
It was not until their companions were attacked that the remaining griffin knights reacted, but they were thrown into disarray for a moment.
Some griffin riders witnessed their companions, who were fine just now, being beheaded after the lasers passed by. They were so scared that they wanted to flee in all directions, but the beams soon swept towards them.
After accumulating strength, the effective killing range of the laser magic is about 120 meters. Ali and others at the center of the circle are like holding a 100-meter-long sword in their hands, which is weightless.
According to the arc length calculation formula, the laser only needs to be moved one degree to sweep across a large area. Not to mention that there is more than one airship in the sky. One hundred and fifty laser beams interweave with each other to form a beam grid covering the entire area...
The previously mighty overlord of the sky was now completely like a bird in a net, with nowhere to escape. Screams and roars came one after another. Under the baptism of the light beam grid, the entire area turned into a Shura field. Countless griffin knights were chopped into pieces, and blood spilled all over the sky.
More and more Griffin Knights realized that escape was futile, so they shouted "For the glory of the Lord" and "God is with me", and then launched crazy suicidal attacks.
This time, Edwyre brought a full 800 Griffin Knights to conquer the kingdom! Even if the unlucky ones who died under the white phosphorus fire and lightning net were excluded, all the members of the Griffin Knights were present, which meant that each ship had to face five opponents.
Under the suicidal attack of the Griffin Knights, more than 20 airships were hit by successive divine arts and fell into the capital below...
…
As the battle in the sky began, the fighting in the royal capital had also entered a fierce stage.
"Don't panic, hold on!" Old York shouted at the top of his lungs, his face full of solemnity and panic.
When he was transferred to the slums of the royal capital for auxiliary defense, Old York felt very regretful. Being safer in the rear also meant that he lost the opportunity to be promoted based on his military achievements.
Who would have thought that after the war started, enemies suddenly appeared one after another from nowhere and appeared directly in the royal capital.
They could still barely deal with the secret guards in black, but after losing the protection of the shadows, facing several rounds of musket fire, the other side did not dare to show their heads easily.
But after those Divine Punishment Knights, who were like human-shaped ferocious beasts, arrived at the battlefield, the front line that had been stabilized with great difficulty was directly broken through in just a few minutes.
They had been retreating again and again, and the number of fallen companions and guards had exceeded 2,000. Under such adverse circumstances and heavy casualties,
Old York could only keep comforting everyone, saying that support would arrive soon and they just needed to hold on a little longer! The sound of dense musketry continued to ring out on the street, and every second there were musketeers who had run out of bullets waving their bayonets and charging, using their lives to slightly block the enemy's advance.
Time passed minute by minute, and the people who persisted finally got the support they expected...but the number of people was much smaller than Old York had imagined, only more than a hundred people, led by Alok and Lydia.
"Lord Alok, is it possible that there are no more men to be mobilized from the royal capital?" Old York's face showed deep disappointment, but he knew in his heart that there were battlefields everywhere and the wizards might not be able to get away for a while.
"Indeed, it's just us!" Alok nodded, and Lydia beside him added confidently.
"But that's enough!"
There weren't many of them, but they were all equipped with the most advanced percussion rifles and three super killer weapons. They were originally planning to support the frontline battlefield, but after learning of the emergency situation here, Lydia immediately brought people over...
