The surrounding space suddenly cleared up, and large numbers of harpies in the sky were frozen into ice sculptures and fell below the clouds. The three-ring spell showed its powerful power at this moment.
“Crash!”
However, before Luo Xi could catch his breath, the sound of flapping wings was quickly heard again, and large groups of harpies gathered from all directions. The area that had just been cleared was instantly filled up. The number was even greater than before, and they surrounded the airship in three layers inside and outside.
The airship's defenses were already very sufficient, but facing so many harpies it was still insufficient. The already damaged protective magic quickly became even more riddled with holes, and more and more harpies took advantage of this to rush onto the deck and attack the crew.
"Fight! Fight!"
"Cut them down!"
At this point, the crew members had already used all their strength to fight to the death. However, they were outnumbered by the harpies in both strength and numbers. Except for the unicorn, it was difficult for the rest to defeat any harpy alone.
As a result, casualties soon appeared on the deck, starting with the goblins. Although these small magical creatures were proficient in all kinds of magical equipment, their individual strength was weaker than that of ordinary humans. They were now the first targets of the harpies' first wave of attacks.
Ordinary people might be able to withstand the wails of the banshees for a while, but these little guys couldn't bear it. Their fragile bodies were torn into pieces by the sound waves. Even if they were just hit by the aftershocks of the sound waves, they would bleed from all seven orifices and fall to the ground and die.
More than a dozen goblins fell down instantly after just the first wave of contact, and some of them were protected by other crew members.
Apart from the goblins, the situation of the rest of the crew was also quite bad. No matter whether they were human slaves or minotaurs, their individual strength was at best limited to the knight stage, and they were far from being able to compete with the wizard-level harpies.
In a short while, the crew members fell to the ground and died one after another. Even three of the thick-skinned Minotaur died. The situation was already precarious.
"Damn it!"
Luo Xi in the sky frowned. He had spent all his fortune to build this wizard ship. He finally assembled a team that could barely sail. Now he saw that he had lost almost half of his men in one go. It was impossible for him to say that he was not anxious.
If he continued like this, the airship would be destroyed here. He didn't care about staying behind and immediately threw several high-level spells at the harpies. At the same time, he summoned all the undead servants such as Hellfire and Balder to help in the battle. He didn't summon them before because he wanted to reduce the loss of mental power. Their fighting style was too rough, and he was worried that they would cause too much damage to the airship during the battle.
But now they are all about to be wiped out, and they can't care about the damage. At worst, they can find a way to repair it after they get through this stage.
“Boom!”
“Hoohoo!”
“Crackle!”
After casting several large spells such as Ice Sword, Thunder Spell and Storm Tide, the harpies that surged up were repelled again, and the originally dire situation was slightly recovered.
"Hawk Harpy, why is there a Harpy here!?"
"Damn it, this is too much!"
At this moment, a sudden sound came to my ears, and I saw several airships with billowing black smoke suddenly flew over from behind. It seemed that they had just broken away from the battlefield of the Dark Wing Clan and were fleeing in this direction.
"ah!!!"
These newly appeared airships immediately attracted the attention of the harpies. These monsters let out sharp screams and rushed towards the new prey. All of a sudden, the pressure on Luo Xi's side was greatly reduced.
Luo Xi's eyes lit up, knowing that this hard-won opportunity must be seized.
"Reynard, follow me forward!"
He raised the Grim Reaper's scythe, and the static force field expanded to the maximum in all directions. At the same time, the mental force field was fully mobilized and spread out to both sides.
The mental force field of a mid-level wizard was a whole level higher than that of the harpies present. When this powerful mental force swept over, these creatures immediately felt fear instinctively.
Harpies are non-intelligent creatures, and their behavioral logic is no different from that of jungle beasts. They bully weak creatures at will, but simply avoid strong creatures. They are typical examples of bullying the good and fearing the evil.
If there were no other targets at this time, these harpies would have attacked Rosie recklessly no matter how scared they were due to the suppression of their tribe. However, a new target appeared at this time, and the frightened harpies changed their targets and rushed towards the other airships. Only a few less agile harpies continued to attack this side, and they were all wiped out one by one by Rosie wielding the Grim Reaper's scythe.
Leonard in the cockpit also saw this. Being experienced, he immediately increased the horsepower to maximum and followed closely behind Rossi.
In this way, Luo Xi waved the Grim Reaper's scythe in front and released powerful magic to clear the way, while Leonard behind him just followed in the airship, moving forward along the bloody path that Luo Xi had continuously killed.
After breaking through like this for more than ten minutes, there was finally light ahead.
"Sir, look ahead, it's three o'clock!"
While Luo Xi was fighting, Leonard's voice suddenly rang in her ears. He was shouting at Luo Xi through the magic loudspeaker on the airship.
Luo Xi looked in the direction he described, but saw a large empty area in the middle of the thick clouds at the three o'clock direction. The diameter of the area was over several hundred meters, as if a door had been opened in the sea of clouds.
Obviously, this is the passage between the sky world and the land world, the sky gate! In addition to the constant sky gates in specific places in the sky world, occasionally due to the changes in airflow and elements, some sky gates will appear randomly in certain places, like the one in front of you.
However, these sky gates are not very stable. They usually do not last long before being swallowed up by the boundary cloud and disappear. The same is true for the sky gate in front of us. At this moment, it can be seen with the naked eye that it is gradually shrinking.
Luo Xi rushed over there quickly. Fortunately, there were not too many harpies gathered around. After several high-level magic bombardments, the surroundings were quickly cleared out. He took this opportunity to land on the deck.
At the same time, Leonard also drove the airship into the sky gate and disappeared completely under the sea of clouds. (End of this chapter)
