Chapter 222 007: Thunderstorm
Luo Xi shook his head and said, "Forget it. It's not time to go back yet."
Although this trip to participate in Misella's game was forced upon him by the Elemental Castle, he himself was full of expectations for this journey, and it would be a pity to miss this opportunity.
Lina frowned and said, "Where are we going now? Are we just going to walk there on our own legs?"
Their destination was the Elemental Land, which required them to cross the entire ruined ancient city. They had only walked less than half of the distance, and that was on an airship. If they walked there, it would probably take at least several years.
“That’s a problem.”
Luo Xi suddenly realized that it was a wrong decision not to bring Nilu on this trip. After all, if Nilu was here, she could ride the hellhound on the road now. According to the hellhound's tutorial, it is not slower than the airship.
After thinking for a while, he picked up the map and looked at it, saying, "After passing through the ruins ahead, there is a gathering point. We will make plans for the next step when we get there."
Thinking this way, Luo Xi took Lina on the road.
Meanwhile, Midway.
Although equipped with sage-level defensive magic, this level of magic array was difficult to resist in the face of the aggressive air pirates. After three rounds of salvos from the airship, the defensive magic shattered with a "click".
“Kill!”
"Hahaha, let's have a good fight!"
Densely packed airships swarmed into the airport, and countless sky pirates jumped out of the airships and rushed onto the dock.
These sky pirates are made up of various races, including humans, gnolls, goblins, and kobolds, and all of them are high-level members of their respective races. Most of them have wizard-level or even comparable strength. Most of the humans among them are high-level knights and great knights.
Of course, these ordinary groups are always just low-end combat forces in this battle. What really determines the outcome of the battle are the wizards wearing cloaks who can fly in the sky.
No matter where in the wizard world, there will always be traces of dark wizards, and the ruined ancient city is no exception. Moreover, the strength of the dark wizards here is far higher than that of the South Coast Alliance. There are wizards everywhere, and there are also many high-level wizards. There are even fluctuations in the strength of sages in the depths of the airship. However, the strength of the equal Midway Port should not be underestimated.
The ownership of Midway Port belongs to the Lavitot family, a well-known wizarding family in the wizarding world. The family's influence is mainly concentrated in the Old Crown among the four major wizarding domains. The family's tentacles are spread throughout every corner of the wizarding world. They can be found in almost every wizarding domain. Midway Port is one of their family's industries.
The Lavitot family arranged a sage to be stationed in Midway Port. In addition, there are several high-level wizards and even hundreds of middle and low-level wizards. These are the entire force that maintains order in Midway Port.
It was obviously difficult to resist the aggressive air pirates with these forces alone, so as soon as the battle started, Sage David, who was stationed in Midway Island, issued a conscription order, offering a large sum of money to summon the wizards in Midway Port to fight against the air pirates together.
"Every wizard who participates in the war will receive 100,000 magic stones afterwards! Killing an enemy wizard will be rewarded with 1 million magic stones!"
"Letting these bandits take over Midway Port will not end well for anyone here!"
"Let's go together and fight them!"
The infamous incidents of air pirates massacring cities were not the first or second time. Everyone knew what would happen if they were allowed to capture Midway Port. Therefore, after hearing the initiative of Sage David, the wizards in the port once again organized resistance.
There were no less than a thousand wizards and groups with wizarding power gathered in the port. After their forces were mobilized, they were able to fight against the sky pirates in an instant.
For a moment, the battle between the two sides broke out fiercely on the floating island.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
“Bang!”
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Wizards flew around in the sky, and colorful beams of magic bloomed in the sky, like fireworks exploding above a summer bonfire. There were red flames, blue ice, and even purple lightning that tore through the sky. The light of magic illuminated the entire sky.
These are all powerful wizard magics. Any one of them can create a deep pit when it lands on the floating island. Anyone who is slightly touched by it will be torn into pieces by the magic energy.
Even a wizard as powerful as this would find it difficult to survive such a dense energy bombardment. Wizards could be seen constantly being hit by magic beams, and then either turning into powder in mid-air or falling like a kite with a broken string.
“Kill!”
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The dock was a meat grinder of the battlefield. The aliens who could not fly and the human knights crowded on this narrow piece of land and faced each other with swords, starting the most primitive hand-to-hand combat. For a while, shouts of killing were heard everywhere, and blood was like raindrops that sprinkled into the sky and fell down.
After the wizards in the port joined the battlefield, the chaos originally caused by the breakdown of the defensive magic was quickly calmed down, and the garrison of Midway Port began to resist in an orderly manner under the leadership of Sage David.
“Hoohoo!~”
However, just when the situation seemed to be improving, suddenly, a strong wind swept in from all directions, and a dark cloud suddenly gathered above Midway Port.
This was an extremely thick black cloud, which almost covered the entire Midway Port. Its diameter was more than ten kilometers. Countless purple lightning pythons were rolling endlessly in the black cloud, as if this was a breeding ground for lightning pythons.
"This power... is that of a sage! A sage!"
"Thunderstorm! Level 7 magic Thunderstorm, damn it!"
"It's over, it's over now!"
Soon someone recognized the identity of this magic. It was Thunderstorm, a seventh-level lightning element spell that could only be cast by a sage. Obviously, the sage on the side of the sky pirates had taken action.
For a moment, all the wizards changed color.
Just as the gap between an apprentice and a wizard is indelible, the difference between a sage and a wizard is as huge as the difference between heaven and earth. The energy coefficient that a sage can mobilize is beyond the reach of a wizard. In front of a sage's magic, a wizard can't even resist at all!
"Boom!" Bursts of muffled thunder continued to sound from the dark clouds, and the giant lightning pythons active in them cheered more and more.
After brewing for a while, the giant lightning pythons that were ready to go in the sky seemed to have reached the limit of suppression. With a violent roar, they instantly broke through the shackles of dark clouds and poured down to the earth!
