Is there really such a place in the wizard kingdom? Although the wizards present had heard the news, they were skeptical because the rumor was so exaggerated. Some even thought it was a scam by the church to lure them there.

In silence, Lucas led the group and ran all the way, taking advantage of the trees and bushes to block the way.

But what made the wizards despair was that after they ran out of the dense forest, there was an endless wilderness outside, which meant that they would have no place to hide! Lucas realized that the knights had deliberately driven them in this direction.

At the moment when his concentration was distracted, dozens of arrows flashing with divine light shot out from the dense forest behind him.

“Get out of the way!”

Amidst the urgent shouts, Lucas also sensed the danger approaching, and almost instantly a [Mage Shield] was cast on his body.

However, the solid magic shield was of little use in front of these arrows blessed with magic-breaking spells, and was quickly broken.

One of the arrows pierced through the shield and embedded deeply into his shoulder.

Lucas's face was distorted, but it was more of a look of fear, because the remaining several magic-destroying arrows were shooting towards his chest.

"Kill!" At this moment, the girl's low shout suddenly sounded, and a slender sword blade swept past Lucas, sparks flew, and three magic-destroying arrows were actually knocked down.

Lucas took a few steps back in shock, only to find that the person who attacked him was a young brown-haired girl with delicate features, a little dust on her face, and a hint of coldness between her brows. "Thank you for your help." Lucas said gratefully, thinking slightly in his mind, and soon recognized the girl in front of him.

Ivana, a wizard from the White Dove School, is proficient in plasticity. It is said that before becoming a wizard, she was a child of a noble family and had excellent swordsmanship.

However, just yesterday, the White Dove School’s headquarters was attacked by a large number of witch hunters, and the entire school was nearly destroyed. Only two people escaped and joined the Mutual Aid Society.

Lucas couldn't help but sigh. There were too many wizarding schools that had suffered heavy losses or even been completely destroyed in recent times. The White Dove School where Ivana was located was not the first, nor the last.

"Let's save the thanks for later. Now is not the time to talk about that." Ivana responded calmly and swung her sword again to cut off the arrow on Lucas' shoulder.

Considering the problem of blood loss, Ivana did not pull it out, and this was not the place to treat the wound.

"I know there is a village not far from this wilderness. Perhaps we can get rid of these enemies there." Ivana glanced at the knight rushing out of the dense forest and continued speaking at a very fast speed.

The wizards present were overjoyed, but the joy in their hearts only lasted for a short moment, because everyone saw that it was impossible for them to outrun the cavalry in the wilderness, unless they left some people behind to cover the rear! Lucas gritted his teeth, he knew that now either everyone would die, or he would have to give up some people.

"Look, what is that?" Suddenly a wizard exclaimed, pointing at the sky, and all the wizards looked in the direction of his finger.

As far as the eye can see, black dots appear in the distant sky and are rapidly approaching this side.

Just as Ivina said, when these flying objects got closer, they looked like huge and majestic ships flying in the sky.

The whole body of the ship is blue-green, and there is a huge oval airbag on the top of the ship, which is tightly bound by dozens of sturdy chains, revealing an industrial beauty.

Is this the aerospace airship?

Ivana was astonished. Although she had seen information about this thing in the literature, she could not hide the shock in her heart when she actually saw the real thing with her own eyes.

Such a huge thing can actually fly in the sky! The wizards were not the only ones who saw these sky overlords. The knights of the church also noticed the sudden appearance of the airships, but the speed of pursuit did not decrease but increased. They wanted to catch Lucas and others in one fell swoop before the wizards' support arrived! "Hold on, our reinforcements have arrived!" Lucas shouted loudly to boost morale, but the formal wizards and apprentices around him were still in a heavy mood.

Because in front of them was a cavalry brigade of 4,000 people led by dozens of bishops! The sound of horse hooves hitting the ground was getting closer and closer, and the smoke and dust that rose up was like a wave rushing towards the crowd.

The crossbow arrows were re-strung one by one, and the sharp arrows shone with a hint of cold light under the midday sun.

Ivana held the thin blade in her hand with a serious expression. In order to make the infiltration plan perfect, she did not know each other and had no connection with the bishops who came to hunt down the wizards. She just made relevant escape plans.

For example, there is a secret passage in the village she mentioned just now, which can be used to escape pursuit and gain the trust of fellow wizards.

However, this means that you will also be hunted down by friendly forces without limits!

Ivana was not 100% sure that she could defend against such a dense array of arrows and crossbows.

Just when the witch hunting knights finished loading their crossbows and were ready to fire, a huge roar sounded above everyone's head, followed by a distortion of the light, and two fighter planes with a wingspan of more than ten meters appeared in front of everyone.

It looked like a magnified several times, steel-made Dorgaard falcon, which flew over Lucas and others at an incredible speed. The airflow created by its huge wings blew away the dust around it, and then it rushed towards the brigade of 4,000 knights.

The oncoming steel fighter plane quickly attracted the attention of the witch hunting knights, and they aimed their bows and crossbows at the sky. However, the fighter plane was too fast, at a speed of 360 kilometers per hour, making it difficult to aim effectively.

The next moment, the violent roar of machine guns rang in everyone's ears, almost bursting their eardrums.

Tongues of flame burst out from the muzzle of the machine gun, and a fierce barrage of bullets hit the witch hunting knights, piercing through their armor in an instant and turning their flesh and blood bodies into sieves.

Red blood flew across the battlefield, screams of pain were heard one after another, and the land where the fighter planes passed by left behind a terrifying trail of blood! In just a dozen seconds, hundreds of witch hunters had fallen in a pool of blood during a charge, with corpses and broken arms scattered all over the battlefield, and a strong smell of blood filled the air...
