YM778.TV Chapter 482: 482
The cold breath from the Endless Sea blew across the sky. The clouds could be seen vaguely. In the sky, two figures flew across the sky, passing through the vast forest.
They had wings on their backs, but they were not angels under the gods, nor were they demons from the Sulfur Hell.
They were humans.
The wings had a metal skeleton and a woven skin. The skeleton was light but strong. It was a magic alloy that had been tempered with fire elements. The skin was woven from Celestial Silk. It was friendly to the wind and flexible.
With the help of the gravity resistance spell on the magic-alloy skeleton and the Wind Spirit Array on the skin, the mages used the mysteries of fluid mechanics and magic to fly in the air.
Their wingtips swept through the air currents, and the two mages formed a team to carry out aerial reconnaissance activities in the designated area. They could control the direction of their flight with a small amount of magic power, flying across the sky like birds.
If they didn’t have the help of the glider and used their own magic power to complete this kind of flying activity, then the two Intermediate Mages would probably fall to the ground after flying for three kilometers.
However, this was the essence and truth of magic-to reach the extraordinary with the smallest price.
At this moment, they were flying like birds, observing the earth through the windproof glasses that were enhanced with the Elemental Inspection spell. They turned their heads from time to time to check on their companions. Although their faces were covered by breathing masks and their expressions could not be seen, they could still see the smiling eyes of their companions, indicating that everything was normal.
” Eagle-2, everything is as usual. Ha, this thing is really f * cking useful.”
The wine-red-haired mage lowered his head and spoke.
” Everything is normal. Eagle-2, no idle chatter.”
The familiar voice of his companion rang in his ears.
The reason why he could achieve such an effect was because of his new equipment.
The tactical buckle on the chest of the Mage’s flying light armor, where the Heavy Explosive Flare was originally hung, was now tied to a small square. That thing had many buttons, and there was also a short stick that could be extended and shortened. After pulling the short stick out, insert a thread into the hole at the top, and then stuff the small cotton ball on the other end into the ear, you could communicate with your companions in real time.
After receiving this new equipment for the first time, even though he had repeatedly reminded himself to maintain the demeanor and dignity of a spellcaster, the noble mage was still shocked beyond control.
Then, he did the same idiotic thing that everyone who just got a walkie-talkie would do.
After hearing the other party’s voice, they would laugh hysterically in the walkie-talkie like an idiot. Then, like a child chasing a kite, they would run around with the thing and run far away to test the maximum communication distance of this thing.
Obviously, this was the first time he had seen such a thing.
It did not require any magic foundation and could even be used by mortals. This was the ultimate pursuit of alchemists. Simple, efficient, and powerful. This thing had never appeared in Goethe, or even the entire continent. Just a small black box had instantly destroyed the battlefield short-distance magical communication link that the Twilight Moon Arcane Center had spent a lot of money to build.
The only one who could provide such a mysterious and great alchemy masterpiece was the legendary person.
Skyquaking Dragon, Sword of Intimidation, Great Alchemist Kant.
Today was the second day of the search and rescue mission. After the first day of the search last night, the flying wing reconnaissance team received this kind of alchemy equipment.
As a result, the efficiency of the entire search and command system had been improved. The observation balloons no longer needed to use complex elemental flashing signals to transmit information. They only needed to press a button to complete the conversation. The various reconnaissance teams could also communicate with each other through this thing to confirm the situation. The safety and efficiency had greatly increased.
And this was just a search.
If it was… What about war?
All mages were knowledgeable and highly educated. They had a vision, knowledge, and experience that surpassed ordinary people. Naturally, they would have better logical thinking and imagination.
They couldn’t help but think about what this thing meant.
He could not help but think that His Highness Kant could casually take out such an item…What did it mean?
Even though he was in the air, the wine-red-haired mage could not resist the urge to tell him.
“Listen, brother, this thing is too powerful, too ridiculous, too terrifying! “We’re only using it to find some missing dragons. In just three hours, we’ve already surpassed yesterday’s progress. If this thing appears on the battlefield… Do you know what this means?”
“Think about it!” he said. Think about it! A battlefield of tens of thousands of people! A huge battlefield! A fleeting opportunity!
When the battle is completely heated up, the commander will lose control of the army. This kind of thing will never happen again!”
” With this, the commander of an army can even order a ten-man archer team to move forward ten meters from the archery position a few kilometers away!”
” Do you know what this means?!” he asked excitedly.
“Does this mean that this commander is very stupid?” his companion replied indifferently.
“.. F * ck! I’m talking about the absolute advantage of information on the battlefield! All the changes, all the details, there’s no need to use the messenger to report, and there’s no need for the commander to stand on the high command platform and risk being attacked by the enemy’s Sniper Mages to observe the battle!”
“The military textbooks will be rewritten! The art of war will be renewed!”
His companion was still observing the ground, and he replied casually,” And then?”
“And this thing was taken out by His Highness Kant!” he shouted frantically. And he had taken out at least a hundred of them in one go! He must understand the true use and value of this thing. This means that his hometown must have used this thing to fight a long time ago!”
” And this is only used for battlefield communication. It’s an auxiliary alchemical equipment. What about the ones used in battle? Like the alchemical weapon that he used to blow up an entire elven air force in the sky above Lucerne in a few minutes! And those green-skinned creatures and the strange things that the Valentans are holding!”
At this point, he suddenly lowered his voice. Is he really from Aurora?”
His companion finally turned his head. What?”
“Think about it. With such alchemical equipment and weapons, there must be more things that we don’t know. If it was the Aurora Empire, if it had such weapons and facilities, how could it have been almost destroyed by the foreign tribes? Then how powerful are their enemies?”
“If not, then where did His Highness Kant come from?” the mage asked softly.
” What’s the meaning of this?” His companion was stunned for a moment before he finally turned around and continued to observe the ground.
“Of course!” The mage said,” If even we can think of it, why can’t the others? “If those important figures, the masters of the Council, the rulers of the various countries, and the experts of the continent discover this, they will definitely be curious. Once they are curious, they will…”
“-and what?”
“Yes… You will…” The mage was about to say something when a strange expression appeared on his face.
“So, is there any meaning?” The wingman’s tone was calm, neither curious nor worried.” So what if we found out? So what if he was curious? His Highness Kant must have figured this out, which is why he took out the alchemy equipment. He doesn’t care, and there’s only one reason why he doesn’t care.”
” When you have the power to destroy an entire army, destroy a city, paralyze a medium-sized country, and inflict heavy damage on a hegemonic country with a single strike, your secrets will be forever kept a secret. Everyone will respect your privacy and your right to keep your secrets.
At this point, the Mage’s wingman glanced at his talkative companion.
” Don’t worry. The big shots have experienced more than you, so they are smarter than you. The big shots have more than you, so they are more timid than you.”
“What do you mean?!” The mage nodded blankly.
“It means…” His companion blinked and turned around. Under the protection of dozens of Eyes of Lucius hidden in the clouds, the core hub in the center.
It was the place where the people from Aurora were.
He was here to coordinate the overall situation and command everything.
” Get ready,” the wingman said with a smile.” Goethe’s new era is coming.”
“Ah?” The mage said,” I acknowledge His Highness Kant’s power, and I’m also grateful that he saved Goethe. I’m even a little envious of his ability to woo the Elven Empress, but the new era…Wasn’t this too exaggerated? How can an outsider bring a new era to a country?”
“Then let’s wait and see.” His companion said,” Let’s go and take a look at that canyon!”
They used magic power to raise the head of the glider slightly. It rose to a certain height and then began to slide down again. Through the thin clouds, the cold air was still cool even after being softened by the breathing mask. The spellcaster flew in the vast forest and slowly approached the mountain.
After flying for a while, the mage couldn’t hold it in anymore. He had actually just started another topic.
“You said that His Highness Kant and the Phoenix King…Are you serious?”
” Look!” Suddenly, his companion’s solemn voice sounded.” Look!”
” What?!” The mage was shocked. Then, he heard his companion say,” One o’clock direction-that canyon!”
” What?” He looked in that direction, but there was no reaction from the elemental sensing spell of the goggles.
” The dense forest that connects to the canyon seems a little unnatural. There are few people here, but the dense forest seems to have been trampled or hit by something…There shouldn’t be any huge exotic beasts growing here.” His companion muttered,” Moreover, this place seems a little quiet…”
Since they were companions, they had a tacit understanding.
“No birds?”asked the wine-red-haired mage.
” Yes, as one of the most lush areas of the ecosystem, this jungle and mountainous area are too quiet. There are very few signs of bird activity.” His companion replied,” Slow down. Let’s fly around this place. Don’t lower our altitude. Our mission is to investigate carefully and carefully, not rashly and rashly. Let’s observe first and see if we can find more signs…” Then report to the command center.”
They turned their bodies and changed their direction with their gliders. The two mages flew in circles in the air, but they were not low. From above, the junction between the canyon and the dense forest was covered with vegetation. If they did not lower their altitude or even land, it would be difficult to find anything.
“How is it? Should we report to the command center?”
“If there’s nothing unusual, how do we report it to the command center?”
The investigation team had to have a certain degree of decision-making power. They couldn’t report to the command center after finding a trace, and then a large number of people would come to investigate but return empty-handed. If every team did this, then everyone basically didn’t have to do anything else.
However, lowering the altitude or even landing was too dangerous.
“What should we do?”
The two of them circled around while communicating.
“I have an idea,” said the wine-red-haired mage.
“What?”
“We didn’t see any birds… Let’s see if there are any birds here.”
He let go of one arm and pointed his finger at the dense forest below. The air swirled and sprayed at his fingertip. Invisible air currents whizzed down and swirled around, accumulating reserved power.
They fell into the forest.
A loud explosion sounded, but it was harmless because the effect of this spell was only to create sound.
It was enough to scare animals.
In the next moment, the birds in the forest were startled and flew out.
It seemed that they were taking a nap. The mage had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his companion shout,”Run!”
Startled, he used Eagle Eye to look down. The adjusted vision allowed him to see the scene below clearly. There was something wrong with the flock of birds whistling out!
All kinds of them, with different sizes and colors, flew out at the same time. Their manic cries were filled with pain. Most importantly, their bodies…It was flowing with a strange purple light!
It was like some kind of foreign object that grew and mutated from his body.
“What’s that?!” he exclaimed in shock.
This was just a subconscious exclamation. He did not expect his companion to answer his question. After all, the two of them were classmates, learned together, and improved together. Their level of knowledge was similar.
However, his companion still answered his question. It was a very correct answer.
“It’s something that wants to bite us!”
“Turn!”
The mages adjusted their direction and lowered their heads. Their diving posture kept increasing their speed, but along the way, birds kept rushing out of the forest. Their speed was extremely fast, almost breaking through the limits of their physical bodies. They ignored the damage to their body tissues and the limits of their functions and chased after them crazily!
“No! They’re too fast!”
“Leave this forest!” the mage shouted.
Under such circumstances, continuing to descend was undoubtedly drinking poison to quench their thirst. However, they needed speed now. The tip of their wings stirred up air currents, and the wind blew in their faces. Strange cries came from behind them, and the ground below was getting closer and closer.
” We’ve been attacked by a group of unknown creatures. Requesting backup!”
In the midst of the crisis, he finally thought of the organization. The mage adjusted the channel and shouted into the walkie-talkie. Then, he pulled out a signal flare from the tactical buckle. He poured magic power into it, and it flashed into the sky!
“We’re about to meet the enemy! They’re coming!” His companion gritted his teeth and shouted,” Get out of the glider! Otherwise, we won’t be able to defend ourselves!”
The mage did not even think about it, and his hands suddenly pulled and loosened.
With a bang, the glider broke away from his back and crashed backward. The self-destruct spell was immediately activated, and the wind pressure turned the threads of the Celestial Gauze into tough thin blades, cutting them wantonly in the air. The corrupted birds were torn into pieces, but more birds screamed violently and chased after them at an even faster speed.
The two mages spread open their flying squirrel suits and sped down. At the same time, their fingertips shone with light as they continuously fired Arcane Missiles.
However, the flock of birds came from all directions, front, back, left and right, killing them endlessly.
“Closer!”
The birds that were rushing down from below were so close that their wings could be seen with the naked eye.
The two mages looked at each other and put away their Flying Squirrel Clothes at the same time.
The flock of birds flapped their wings and surrounded them. The two of them reached out and grabbed each other’s arms. The inertia of their flight pulled them down in a spin. Then, the two spellcasters drew short staffs from their backs at the same time. They poured their magic power into them, and the elements took shape. One blue and one red, Frost Ray, Blazing Ray. Two light pillars danced around like swords as their bodies spun, sweeping at the flock of birds charging at them. They broke through the encirclement and flew down.
When external objects could no longer be relied on, what was left was the Spell Caster’s own cultivation and attainments.
Flying spell usage.
Summon Feng Xing to resist gravity.
However, Intermediate Mages had limited magic power and could not support long-distance flight.
Moreover, he was still unable to leave the range of the forest… Perhaps there was something even more terrifying hidden below.
The two of them looked at each other and could see the sigh and despair in each other’s eyes.
“Damn it.” The mage mumbled,” If I knew earlier, I would have told Irene that I love her before I left…”
The cries of the birds in the sky were getting closer and closer.
In the next moment, a violent explosion shook the sky.
Then, the mages heard the sharp sound of a large number of objects breaking through the air, followed by a series of explosive booms. The flock of birds behind them was torn apart and fell to the ground.
They raised their heads in surprise and saw a fiery stream of light rushing over from afar. It was extremely fast and powerful like lightning. It arrived almost in an instant. They could see the appearance of that thing clearly.
A set of steel armor…Behind him, a blazing stream of light shot out.
Goethe’s law circle had a private joke. If you saw a big piece of iron with fire spewing out of its butt flying around in the sky or on the ground at an extremely fast speed, it must be the work of His Highness Kant.
Now, the two Spell Casters had a new understanding of this joke.
What big piece of metal with a flaming butt?
There were quite a few cool, fierce, and sexy weapons!
In almost the blink of an eye, the steel armor flew in front of them and hovered. Then, without stopping for a moment, it carried them up into the sky with one hand in each hand. The blazing tail flames streaked across the sky and went straight up.
Then, they heard Prince Kant’s voice.
The two of them nodded like chicks pecking at rice.
“Then I’ll fly by myself for a while!”
Kant threw them out and flipped over. The two mages gathered their magic power and hovered. Then, they saw two flat cuboids rising from the shoulders of His Highness Kant’s armor. Then, he threw out dozens of tiny objects in one breath, dragging long trails of flames as they flew down.
A series of dazzling explosions followed.
The hands, shoulders, and waist of the armor were spewing flames from head to toe, like invisible blades cutting through the surging flock of birds. Then, the mages heard the roar of a dragon in the sky, and a white dragon swooped down from afar. Violent dragon breath spewed out from its mouth, swallowing the surging flock of birds.
“Take these two away first!”Kant shouted.
The two spellcasters who had made great contributions enjoyed a special treatment that most living people in the world did not enjoy-a special dragon sightseeing seat.
It was grabbed by the dragon’s claws and flew away.
They obediently hovered in the air, trying their best to turn their heads to look at the scene behind them. The giant dragon flew further away and flapped its wings to hover in the air. One dragon and two dragons looked in Kant’s direction.
“What is he doing?”
There were also Spell Casters flying over from the surroundings.
Then, the mages saw a dark door open in the sky.
A black shadow that was difficult to see with the naked eye whistled and fell into the sea of trees.
The soil was sent flying, the air waves roared, and the vegetation was swept away. Fragments and remains were thrown dozens of meters or even hundreds of meters high. Terrifying explosions raised high dust, and the area of the forest continued to explode and roar. The violent power shook the sky and the earth, and in an instant, the domain was enveloped in absolute destruction. Everything happened in an instant.
Then, the mages heard a rumbling sound.
A wind with the smell of sulfur blew over.
“.. You’re right.” After a long time, the wine-red-haired mage turned his head and said to his companion,” A new era is coming.”
[PS 1: 5,500 words…] Ah, once a habit is formed, it’s really hard to change it…
