While the Kaoqi people were still in the heat wave and longing for the arrival of the cool autumn breeze, it was already a late autumn scene on the Montita grassland.
Grant Lake, which had expanded countless times during the rainy season, has shrunk a lot now. The places that were originally river beaches are now covered with lush green grass.
Under the blowing of the autumn wind, dots of light yellow are faintly revealed in the grass, which are the ears of wild wheat.
The cattle and sheep enjoy the sweet grass. To them, it is the milk of Mother Earth.
Different from previous years, Grant City did not let the tribes who originally gathered nearby gradually disperse because of the rainy spring and summer.
The wide and deep moat surrounding Grant City has obviously become another Grant Lake.
The abundant rainwater stored in the rainy season has caused those tribes who originally lived in pursuit of water and grass and migrated according to the seasons like migratory birds to stay.
There are even tribes that have been migrating from the depths of the grassland for thousands of miles. They have settled around Grant City as a symbol of prosperity.
Those hundreds of fortresses were already filled with tribes from far away.
And those latecomers who are not so lucky can only use their own strength to build their own homes.
This caused fortresses to be built one after another around Grant City.
Neither Enleco nor Cecilia expected this matter.
But they were happy about all this, because they had just experienced a war and the Montita Kingdom no longer had much wealth.
And those fortresses have obviously proven their worth.
The battle that just passed was the first and only time in the history of the Montita Kingdom that the enemy did not besiege Grant City.
This is almost all the result of those fortresses.
How to use countless fortresses to make Grant City, the most sacred city in the hearts of the prairie people, impregnable, is what Cecilia is most concerned about.
Unfortunately, the depleted treasury made it difficult for her to spare extra money to build forts around Grant.
But now, those tribes who migrated from far away took the initiative to share all this for her, which naturally made her feel extremely happy.
All she needed to do was to send a few skilled craftsmen to guide those tribes so that the fortresses they built had sufficient solid defense.
And when it is almost completed, send a few magicians there to make the outermost soil of the fortress as solid as rock.
This doesn't cost much and can solve a lot of things easily...
However, compared with the densely packed fortresses surrounding Grant, what pleased her even more was undoubtedly the increasingly powerful Montita Prairie.
The tribes that continuously gathered around Grant brought together the originally scattered forces.
Even Cecelia herself did not expect that there were so many tribes in the Montita Grassland.
The only regret is that most of these tribes are very weak.
However, she was convinced that as long as there were ten years of peace and quiet, these weak tribes would all become prosperous and powerful.
The tribes that came to Grant City and settled down all proved this point.
Cecelia knew very well that the Montita people had adaptability and fertility comparable to those of wolves in the prairie. Just gently close your eyes and imagine the Montita prairie tribe being prosperous, with a large population, and herds of cattle and sheep. Seeing the scene, Cecelia felt extremely relieved and joyful from the bottom of her heart.
What also pleased her was the increasing number of airships gliding slowly in the air.
These craft are getting bigger and faster.
Although there are not so many magicians, and the Montita people hate fire extremely, it is difficult to build a powerful magic army.
However, the thousands of airships and the powerful heavy crossbows deployed on each airship are enough to make any powerful enemy dare not take any chances against the Montita Grassland.
Cecilia has almost absolute confidence that she can deal a fatal blow from the air to any enemy who despises the Montita Grassland.
As a magician, she naturally knows the meaning of these flying boats best.
Being able to fly in the air and cast powerful magic has been the dream of magicians since ancient times.
However, among the wind magic, the most powerful ones, such as "hurricane spell", "dust storm shroud", "lightning storm", etc., all require unimaginable huge magic power to be able to fly and cast at the same time. The magicians of these magics are probably close to the realm of great wizards.
Only fire magic has a large amount of magic that does not cost much magic power, but has amazing destructive power and is extremely practical.
However, it is obviously more difficult to do this. Unless a crazy guy like Chris uses surgery to separate his mental power, I am afraid that not many people can do this.
But now, the flying boat gliding in the air has perfectly realized the dream of magicians of all ages.
What's more, the people driving those flying boats are not real magicians.
Most people can almost do this. The only difference is just that the speed of the flying boat is slightly different.
If for two centuries, the Kingdom of Kaoqi has stood out among the others with its so-called strongest Holy Knights, then these warships flying in the air and using deadly mines as weapons will undoubtedly be the most powerful corps in the next era. .
The only thing that makes Cecelia feel a little worried is that the Kaoqi Kingdom has also mastered the skills of building airships from those stolen airships.
Fortunately, the Kaoqi people were unable to create that mysterious nuclear crystal. They could only use real magicians to make the flying boat fly in the sky.
After all, the number of magicians is limited. With the rich and developed resources and wealth of the Kaoqi Kingdom, it can only own a few hundred spaceships.
The reason for this is precisely because the number of magicians is always a bottleneck that cannot be bypassed.
Cecilia never knew whether the much smaller airships currently available in the Montita Kingdom could become opponents of the much larger and powerful warships of the Kaoqi Kingdom.
However, I secretly guessed that with the thousands of airships currently in the Montita Kingdom, they should be able to gain the upper hand in the battle with their numerical advantage.
What really bothered her was the magic corps riding on the flying boat.
The range of the explosive fire is obviously far beyond that of the crossbow.
In the battle that just ended, it has been proved that this short gap in shooting range requires countless Montita people to pay for it with their lives and blood.
That short distance of a few hundred meters was almost covered with the blood left by the heroic soldiers.
In the unlikely event that this extremely cruel scene reappears in the air, Cecelia doubts whether the Montita Kingdom can still afford such a huge loss.
After all, exchanging numbers for final victory does not mean exchanging sacrifices for the lives of the enemy.
Having just experienced an extremely cruel war, Cecelia absolutely did not want the people of Montita Grassland to lose their lives on the battlefield again, and she absolutely did not want death to come to those tribes again.
No one knows better than her how important everyone is to Montita Prairie.
Cecilia threw the chip in her hand aside and stood up slowly.
She obviously intends to leave this huge problem to those guys who are naturally fond of solving problems to think about.
The City in the Clouds is still as noisy as ever.
The disaster that happened once seems to have been forgotten from people's minds. The Montita people are a nation that only focuses on today and the future. They are not willing to remember the sorrow and suffering of the past.
However, the noise at the moment was somewhat different from the past.
Although the people of Montita Grassland are not good at grasping politics and situations, they still clearly feel that the war has not completely left the grassland.
The explosion that killed dozens of teenagers at the most important moment in their lives, and the incident where the airship was stolen by the Kaoqi people, all warned the Montita people that they were still under the shadow of war.
What frightened them even more was undoubtedly the promulgation of the unprecedented law.
All traditions seemed to be replaced by stronger constraints in an instant.
Those who clamored to marry the widow of the famous Sophie Enchantment Master were eventually exiled to the depths of the grassland, affecting nearly twenty tribes.
All of this makes the Montita people feel the ubiquitous shadow of war.
And the front camp, which had never been dismantled, made everyone understand that war was around them.
The road was full of hurried pedestrians.
The noisy market, the silk-weaving looms that brought the greatest benefit to the Montita prairie, had stopped turning.
The brick kilns used for firing fine porcelain have also extinguished their fires.
Cattle and sheep, regarded as the most precious wealth by the Montita people, were sent to be slaughtered in batches.
None of the meat was wasted, it was all marinated and air-dried.
The sound of forging can be heard everywhere in Grant City, and the clang of hammers hitting anvils is constant day and night.
The bows and arrows that the Montita people were best at were sealed away, and the heavy and thick crossbows were even distributed to the hands of children.
By Grant Lake, soldiers training hard can be seen everywhere, and the flying boats in the sky are even more numerous than falcons.
The buzzing sound resounded throughout the world.
Looking at all this, almost everyone felt that the horn of war was still echoing in the Montita grassland.
On the highest platform of the Cloud City, the flying boats are neatly arranged there.
The Montita man, whose body was covered with those ugly spider-like strange ornaments, was carefully getting into the slender and narrow flying boat.
Compared with the huge air battleships of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, these airships are just simple patrol boats.
Moreover, in this endless grassland, wood is a very noble and extremely rare resource. Therefore, these flying boats can only use a small amount of wood to make the supports, and the outside is covered with thick cowhide.
If the Kaochi saw these flying boats, they would surely deride them as kayaks.
The inside of this kayak-like airship was also small and crowded, and it was pitch black because there were no windows, so it was impossible to see anything clearly.
There was a strong smell of asphalt everywhere. This dirty material was used to reinforce the shell and plug gaps and loopholes.
When the airship rises to a high altitude and penetrates the clouds, they can also maintain a sufficient temperature inside the airship without freezing the people inside into ice cubes.
Everyone who got into the flying boat sat in their own seats in the dark. They could only quietly do their familiar work.
The only thing that can bring out a little bit of light in the flying boat is the weak and dim blue light emitted by the nuclear crystal.
Except for the captain who is responsible for controlling the direction of travel and controlling the wind-wing magic circle, who can see the outside situation through the reflection of a series of mirrors, only the person at the front who controls the heavy crossbow can see the front through a small hole. scene.
When the spacecraft was parked on the ground, the people inside felt extremely hot and stuffy, but when it rose to a high altitude, the unimaginable cold turned the inside into a world of ice and snow.
Only the thick felt blankets and cotton robes were used to resist the terrible cold.
Although the environment inside the airship is so harsh, everyone who is able to enter it is full of pride and pride.
As usual, when the last ray of sunlight at dusk gradually fell below the horizon, when the darkness of the night and the dots of stars slowly emerged, a particularly slender ship with five pairs of narrow wings appeared. The flying boat was pushed out of the nearby warehouse by a team of magicians.
This spaceship looked so different. It was completely black, and under the cover of night, it seemed like a black hole appeared through the basket.
Even the five pairs of wings did not reveal the brilliant golden light like other flying boats.
This black flying boat is like a bat quietly haunting the night.
And those who control this spaceship are also full of mystery.
There was even a figure wearing a magician's robe among the group of people, and his expression looked extremely serious.
These people got into the flying boat.
"Where are we ordered to go this time?" the magician asked, with a thick accent in his tone. He was obviously a native of Montita.
"It seems we have to travel a long way." A dull voice came from the darkness: "We have to cross the mountains and enter the Kaoqi Kingdom to bring back the sentinel sent out last time."
"Going to the Kaoqi Kingdom? I hope it will be as safe as last time." Another person said in a low voice.
"Can we abandon the sentry in the dangerous Kaoqi Kingdom for our own safety? He has done so much for all of us, and now it is time for us to repay." The voice just now sounded again, he was obviously The leader of this trip.
"The time to set off has arrived, everyone should prepare themselves." The leader said slowly.
Suddenly, the dark cabin became quiet.
Suddenly, countless dim lights lit up in the darkness. Some of these lights formed a mysterious magic circle, and some formed a series of stars.
Although these dim lights are still not enough to illuminate the place clearly, they make everyone feel a little at ease.
The fear of darkness exists in everyone's heart after all, and just a little light can greatly weaken this fear.
With a buzzing sound that was lighter than the usual flying boat, this distinctive black flying boat slowly rose into the sky.
Looking from a distance, under the cover of night, it looks like a ghost wandering in the dark night, flying silently into the sky.
However, the people who controlled this spaceship were obviously still not satisfied with the protection given to them by the dark night.
The flying boat got into the clouds, and the thick clouds became its most perfect concealment.
After entering the clouds, the temperature inside suddenly dropped so low that the person responsible for operating the heavy crossbow had to temporarily plug the small hole tightly with a strip of cloth.
But in the clouds, he had no work to do. No one would fire the precious, powerful and deadly crossbow arrows while they were still shrouded in thick clouds.
The thick clouds blocked anyone's view.
There was silence in the cabin. No one would chat while carrying out such a dangerous mission. Relaxing at this moment would only lead to their death.
And as a whole, death will be distributed fairly among everyone.
No one would do anything that would harm others or themselves, not to mention that they were all elites selected from thousands of people.
The black spaceship was gliding among the thick clouds. The leader, the captain who controlled this strange warship, gently placed his hands on the two balls on the top of the left and right armrests of the seat.
He focused all his energy on it, and a dim blue light enveloped his hands.
Unconsciously, the airship accelerated and flew forward. Compared with the warships built by the Kaoqi people, it was obviously not easy for this airship to reach extremely fast speeds in a short period of time. .
However, the captain was very confident. As long as his airship flew in the air at the fastest speed, no air battleship in the Kaoqi Kingdom could catch up with it.
The outside world has experienced day and night, but for the people in this narrow and crowded cabin, they can only judge from their numb limbs and stiff bodies that they have gone through a long period of time. time.
Only the crossbowman at the front and the captain had the opportunity to appreciate the vibrant feeling under the bright scenery.
But even they see mostly foggy, thick clouds.
No matter it is day or night, this ghost-like flying boat always burrows from one cloud to another.
The captain was obviously an extremely cautious person. Even in the dark, he seemed to be extremely afraid of being discovered by a pair of sharp eyes that could penetrate the darkness.
At this moment, not only was he concentrating, but he also let the magician use the magical magic unknown to them to peek around.
"About fifty kilometers ahead, there is a field that monitors magic control." The magician suddenly said.
"I plan to go around and mark the area that I must avoid."
The captain said hoarsely that he was tired from nearly a whole day of long-distance flight, but what made him even more tired and exhausted was that he had to be vigilant at all times to prevent his whereabouts from being exposed.
A ray of blue light made the originally invisible magic barrier clearly visible, and the captain carefully turned the direction of the airship.
Just when his mood calmed down a little, suddenly, the magician who was monitoring the surroundings screamed in panic.
"No! A surveillance barrier rose out of thin air under our feet. Once we leave the clouds, the target will be exposed immediately! But if we don't leave the range of the barrier as soon as possible, we will also be discovered sooner or later, and the wind wings will spread out The fluctuations of wind magic will cause the clouds to gradually dissipate!"
"Then let's stop the wind wings." A person in the darkness interrupted.
"No, it's difficult for our airship to speed up all at once. If it slows down every day, it will be impossible for us to escape from the pursuit of the Kaoqi people." The captain immediately objected.
"Then we can only fly as close as possible to the edge of the barrier, and then look for opportunities to escape from here." Another person said.
"I can only hope now that the surveillance magic has not completely covered this cloud, and a part of the cloud is still dragging outside the barrier." The captain sighed helplessly and said.
With this sigh, the cabin suddenly became calm.
The captain once again turned the flying boat around and headed towards the thickest part of the clouds.
When the flying boat broke out of the clouds, almost everyone's heart was in their throats.
"Run away! We have been discovered!" the magician said obviously in a panic.
Although nothing could be seen clearly in the darkness, everyone in the cabin subconsciously looked at the captain.
The captain didn't answer. He just pressed his hands tightly against the two balls that controlled the spaceship. The blue light covering his palms reached an unprecedented brightness. At the same time, , the spaceship also increased its speed to an extent that was unimaginable in the past.
No one knew where the flying boat had flown. Only the crossbowman at the front gently pulled off the piece of cloth stuffed in the small hole.
He glanced outside, and then asked melancholy: "Are we going back like this? Are we just going to abandon our sentry and return without success?"
"No, we shouldn't escape." First someone jumped out and said.
"I also agree that we cannot leave our scouts in this dangerous enemy country." Another person stood up and said.
"I think we should temporarily withdraw from Montita and report this failure to Lord Sant. Whether we sneak into Kaoqi again or send another team, it will be better than what we are doing now. While your traces are exposed, continue your adventure," the magician said.
"Your wisdom has obviously exhausted your courage. We will never give up on any grassland people. Have you stayed in the City in the Clouds for so long that you have forgotten that being a Montita is the most important thing. One thing?"
After hearing what the magician said, someone immediately objected sternly.
"Damn it! Stop arguing, and escape from this dangerous place now. However, I don't intend for this mission to end in this way. Let's make a gesture of escaping to the border first, and wait until those Kaoqi people relax. After that, turn around and go around a *** to the scheduled meeting point."
Most people were happy about the captain's decision. Only the magician sighed. It was obvious that he did not agree with this decision.
At this moment, in that quiet, far away from the bustling Vedsk Mountain Col, in that seemingly simple, but actually extremely strong castle, Haguero was staring at the phantom that appeared. , a map that is exactly the same as the real scene.
Near a small town that seemed not far from Vedsk, a red light spot was flashing.
Beside Hegeero, stood quietly an old priest. He was wearing a white robe with a scarlet collar symbolizing the God of War sewn on his collar.
"The 'God of War Beacon' has brought us traces of the intruder. Sir Duke, do you need to talk to the priest there personally?" The God of War priest said slowly.
"No need, I believe they may not give me much useful information. It can be seen that the intruders have escaped their surveillance range, and I can't see if the magicians there show any signs of continuing to track them. "Hagero said calmly.
"It's a pity that we, Kaoqi, don't have the magic surveillance devices that are spread in every corner of the kingdom like the Kingdom of Leiding. Otherwise, those intruders would not be able to fly at all."
An officer on the other side said angrily. The helmet he was holding was dotted with fluffy red ostrich tassels. It was obvious that he belonged to the Holy Knights.
"There is no need to be discouraged. Maybe those intruders have not escaped from our hands. If I guessed correctly, the intruders who appeared suddenly without knowing it must be the same as those who were discovered by us one after another some time ago. And it’s related to the falcon that was killed.”
"It's hard for me to believe that these falcons flew thousands of miles from that city in the clouds to here. It's even harder to believe that they have to go through such a long flight before they can bring the information back."
"I am sure that there must be Montita people sneaking in near Vedsk. They are the owners of those falcons, and they are also the spies installed by the Montita Kingdom in Kaoqi."
"And that mysterious spaceship that suddenly penetrated deep into Vedsk was most likely to take them or the intelligence in their hands away."
"If this is indeed the case, maybe we still have a chance to keep the mysterious intruder here." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Hagero's mouth.
"Your Excellency, have you ever thought about searching the surrounding area to find out the informants of Montita who are lurking here?" the officer asked again.
"It's not necessary, and it's also quite difficult. I don't know if you have heard of the way of life of those Montita people. They are very good at enduring hunger. A little dry food can even keep them alive for several months."
"And their uncivilized minds allow them to have a harmony and understanding of the natural world that we can hardly imagine. And those falcons give them superb vision that you can never imagine."
"If we want to find those Montita's informants who have sneaked in among these high mountains, I am afraid that even if we deploy all the troops in the kingdom, we may not be able to do it."
"However, we can cut off their communication with the City in the Cloud. The airships that brought them here can be discovered by us. As long as we block their escape route, these informants planted near Vedsk, It doesn’t make any difference at all.”
Having said this, Hagrid looked at the God of War priest next to him.
The old priest naturally understood what Duke Hegeero wanted to confirm from him.
He nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty the Duke, what you said is absolutely correct. Since the beginning of the war, the Military God Church has always been vigilant about everything around it."
"I am absolutely certain that within a radius of 300 kilometers, no other 'God of War Beacon' channel has been established."
"Besides using the power of the gods, I have never known that there is another way to send messages to another place thousands of miles away." The priest said confidently.
"Some magicians are also able to travel across extremely long distances and deliver messages." The evil mage Trode, who had been standing far behind, suddenly interjected.
"However, a magician who can do this will definitely not be an ordinary person. It is completely different from the believers of the God of War who use the power of the God of War to convey messages. The magician wants to use the method I mentioned to convey the message. , the distance of message transmission is related to the magic power they possess." These ugly and terrifying evil mages added.
"Although there is no shortage of powerful magicians in the City in the Clouds, Cecilia must be absolutely unwilling to use the power of those magicians in this way. What's more, most of the powerful magicians in the City in the Clouds are from Solo. The former aiders of the Finn Kingdom not only did not have the ability to communicate closely with those falcons, but they were also less likely to survive in a difficult environment for a long time like the real Montita people."
"From various signs, it seems that the informant of the Montita people lurking near Vedsk is a native Montita person." Hagueiro said with certainty.
After saying all this, he once again turned his attention back to the map.
"I am sure that these respectable invaders will come back to continue their mission." Hegeello said as if talking to himself.
Among the mountains in the north hundreds of kilometers away from Vedsk, a black shadow quickly passed over the low but rolling hills.
At a glance, it looks like a black swallow, lightly passing over the undulating lake surface.
This black shadow is the flying boat that mysteriously sneaked into the center of Kaoqi just now.
This time, the reason why it took the risk to fly out from the thick clouds that gave it excellent concealment was because it had to avoid the direction that had just alerted the attention of the Kaoqi people.
The direction of cloud drift near the north is very unfavorable for this airship. Because of this, it is much safer to hide in the rolling mountains than to be discovered by others high in the sky.
The mountains blocked people's sight and also greatly weakened the magic used by magicians to monitor the surroundings.
However, this is also an extremely dangerous gamble. The abrupt mountains and the mountain walls that will suddenly appear from the front to block the direction of progress are extremely difficult for this light and agile flying boat. A deadly presence.
Although some people proposed to slow down the speed of the airship slightly, for the captain, it was also a gamble, because after slowing down the speed, once discovered by the enemy, it would be difficult for them to escape from the roundup.
Risking death or risking capture, almost everyone chose the former.
The dance of death was dancing on the blade of the god of death. Everyone in the flying boat fell into silence, and they prayed devoutly in their hearts.
"How far is it from the meeting place?" The captain suddenly asked in the midst of his busy schedule.
"There's about a hundred and fifty miles left," the magician said. He was obviously hesitant when he said this.
"You'd better get ready as soon as possible now. When you get there later, you can fly down to pick up that person." The captain said decisively.
"I'm still worried about whether your plan is feasible..." The magician frowned and said, "If you let me go down to the ground, it's not difficult. If you let me take that person up to the top of the mountain, it'll be the same. It's easy, but jumping from the top of a mountain to a flying boat is probably not that easy, not to mention being able to stabilize your body and prevent yourself from falling."
"This is the only feasible option. You should be very clear about what reducing the speed means." The captain said slowly.
"This is risking that person's life. He could have waited for us to pick him up next time." The magician argued.
"Everyone of us here is also risking his life. I think since the sentry has undertaken the task of spying on the Kaoqi people, he must have realized that death is nothing to him. .”
said the captain, and suddenly added: "None of us here is afraid of the possibility of death, at least that's the case with me."
"Me too,"
"me too!"
"Me too…"
In the darkness, other people also expressed their opinions.
The magician sighed helplessly and chose silence.
"After you get down there, ask the sentinel to give you the magic crystal that records the information and take it with you. For him, the possibility of jumping on the flying boat may be very small, but for you, it is not difficult. "The captain said in a low tone. After saying all this, he fell completely silent.
There was dead silence in the cabin, and no one commented on this this time. It was obvious that everyone had expected this incident.
In that fortress, Hageelo was paying close attention to the clear and realistic map in the center.
"We haven't found any trace of the intruders yet. Have they escaped?" the old priest next to him asked cautiously.
"Maybe." Hagrid replied decisively.
"Could it be that the place where the Montitas meet is not near Vedsk at all?" another officer asked.
"Maybe." Hagriro still gave the same answer.
This time, everyone fell silent.
"Ask the magicians to stop the magic monitoring and start it again after half an hour." Hegeero ordered.
After saying all this, he walked towards the window.
In the sky outside the window, there are huge battleships flying in the sky everywhere.
They are ready for their first move.
Although this is simply an easy hunt for Haguero, he still goes all out, because this will prove whether the brand-new tactics he envisioned can truly suit the situation that no one has ever seen before. No one has ever known it, it is completely different from the battlefield in the past.
Looking at the slowly flying battleship in the distance, looking at the energetic battleship that he loved, as if waiting to soar into the sky.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Hagriro's mouth.
He waited quietly, waiting for the signal to attack.
Although he was not sure, Hagrid had a hunch that there would be a pleasant hunt for him today.
His intuition has always been very accurate, whether it is victory or danger, he can feel it in advance.
Suddenly, a cry of joy awoke him from his thoughts.
"The target finally appeared."
Hagero walked to the front of the map in three steps and two steps at a time.
In the center of the map, a red bright spot was flashing.
The red bright spot had no intention of slowing down at all, but it was obviously turning around, as if planning to escape.
"All hands on deck!"
Hagrid ordered excitedly, and he quickly rushed towards the door.
The officers who were standing there seemed to wake up suddenly at this moment. Excitement and noise enveloped the place in an instant. However, these battle-hardened officers knew very well what their jobs were at this moment.
Outside the castle, in the mountain col, hundreds of warships crowded into the open and spacious mountain col, one after another, rose into the high blue sky.
They lined up every ten and flew towards the distance.
Less than a hundred kilometers away from Vedsk, a black spaceship was speeding toward the southeast.
This time, it never got into the clouds to hide its traces, because the captain already knew clearly that the Kaoqi people must have mobilized dozens of magicians to closely monitor the hundreds of kilometers.
No matter where they flew, there were at least five or six monitoring magics locking them tightly. No matter how thick the clouds were, they could not stop such an intensive search.
In fact, when the dozens of detection magic barriers suddenly appeared at the same time, everyone on the flying boat already knew that they had fallen into a trap carefully laid out by the Kaoqi people.
When we got to this place, even the magician stopped saying anything against it.
There was an extremely heavy atmosphere in the cabin, and in addition, there was also a deep sadness.
Everyone is grieving for the brave man who unfortunately died.
When I jumped on the flying boat just now, the slight bump caused the outer skin of the flying boat to be slightly broken.
But the human body is extremely fragile. Looking at the sentry who is moaning softly and appearing to be dying, everyone can only pray for him silently.
I hope he can persist until he sees the white city in the clouds.
I hope he can wait until the priests use the golden holy water of life to pull him back from the edge of death.
But at this moment, no one wanted to say anything.
They even have no way of knowing whether they can escape danger safely.
At this moment, the only person who could control their fate, apart from the captain who controlled the flying boat, was the magician who was monitoring the surroundings.
The crossbowman at the forefront had already placed the powerful arrow on the open bowstring.
His eyes were always staring ahead, as if waiting for the target to appear.
Suddenly, the magician's frightened voice came from the darkness: "The Kaoqi people's flying boat has caught up!"
"In what direction and how far away is it from us? Which direction is safer for us?" The captain asked a series of questions.
"Their flying boat is about 120 kilometers ahead of us on the right side. It is splitting into two roads and intends to block our way..." As the magician spoke, he asked suddenly and screamed in surprise. .
"No! Dozens of magicians flew out of the city of Vedsk. The one headed by them was incredibly fast. It was simply not a speed that humans could achieve!"
"Now we are in trouble! The magician who is catching up is probably one of the super magicians in the Kingdom of Kaoqi..."
Hearing what the magician said, everyone on the flying boat immediately became nervous.
Because they all know very well what "Super Magician" stands for.
In that tragic battle carried out in the raging storm, almost half of the casualties of the soldiers, whether on the Kaoqi side or the Montita Kingdom, were caused by those super magicians.
The power possessed by those super magicians has obviously far exceeded the scope of human beings. To ordinary people, they are almost equivalent to the existence of gods and demons.
At this moment, no one in the flying boat thinks that he has the ability to challenge the majesty of the gods and demons.
The captain turned the mirror to the direction pointed by the magician. While watching there with vigilance, he turned the bow of the ship and sailed to the right.
Out of fear and worry about the super magician, he was willing to compete with the Kaoqi fleet.
Maybe, he can still pass through the gaps in the fleet. Maybe, he still has a chance to find a breakthrough possibility from this direction.
In the fleet on the opposite side, on the most slender and narrow flagship, Haguero was looking with satisfaction at the scene displayed on the mirror above his head.
The black airship turned around, which was exactly what he wanted. In fact, he was planning to have a good contest with this unique airship.
The only thing he regretted was that he found that his original plan of going on a hunt had obviously come to nothing.
The speed of the airship was obviously far beyond his expectation.
"Tell me, with our speed, can we catch up with the intruder?" Hagriro suddenly asked forward.
An officer immediately became busy. After a while, he raised his head and replied: "The speed of the intruder is quite alarming. We can only intercept it unless we chase it at the fastest speed. But once it escapes, we will It’s going to be hard to catch up.”
"Tell me, how long can we maintain the top speed?" Haguero asked.
"Twenty minutes, this is my limit." The magician who sat in the magic circle and allowed the air battleship to fly replied.
Hagrid thought for a while and said, "Twenty minutes is enough."
"Accelerate to the extreme speed, prepare the main crossbow with a honeycomb, and prepare the auxiliary crossbow with four volleys," Hegeiro issued a series of commands.
On the battleship, almost everyone took action immediately.
Looking at the big red bright spot in the mirror, Hagrid showed a sneer.
"It's a pity that it may be difficult to capture prisoners this time." He whispered to himself in a low voice, with a hint of deep regret in his tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, the huge air battleship shot forward as if it was being dragged violently by an invisible giant hand.
There was a creaking sound in the cabin. Obviously, reaching the ultimate speed was also a huge test for the air battleship itself.
At this moment, the two flying boats, one large and one small, were engaged in a thrilling chase, just like a flying swallow meeting an eagle.
Just as Hagero was surprised, the people on the black spaceship were also extremely surprised by the amazing speed displayed by the flagship of the Kaoqi Kingdom.
"What should we do now? Not only can the super magician catch up with us, but the Kaoqi battleship can also push us to a dead end!" The magician said melancholy.
"We might as well fight that battleship! Even if we are going to see the God of Death, we have to bring a companion with us." The man manipulating the heavy crossbow at the front of the cabin said viciously.
"If I could choose the way to die, I would rather drag the dog emperor of the Kaoqi Kingdom to die together." Another person said, his words full of strange anger.
"Yes, die together with the dog emperor of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Even if you die, you must die a hero." Another person said.
"Do you want the Montita Grassland to be engulfed by war again?" the magician asked sadly. Obviously, at this moment, he no longer believed that it was possible to escape from the siege.
"Do you think there really is peace? Do you think the Kaoqi people really intend to give up the idea of annexing the grassland? Even the supreme Sant, second only to Saint Holy, does not think that peace will last long. Heaven is preparing for the coming war." Another person immediately retorted.
"If everyone is aware of this, I will turn the ship around and sail towards Vedsk." The captain said slowly.
Silence once again fell in this small and dark cabin, and all that could be heard was the heavy breathing of everyone and the soft, feeble moans of the person lying on the ground.
With a heavy sigh, the flying boat slowly tilted over, which was proof of turning the ship's bow.
The black flying boat not only turned its bow, but also plunged into the thick clouds.
The thick clouds suddenly concealed its traces.
Although the detection magic that enveloped it was still firmly locked, no matter whether Hegeero was driving the fierce and powerful aerial battleship, he was still wrapping his body in dense thunderclouds and controlling lightning. Drakes, who had rushed thousands of miles here in an instant, could only look at the thick clouds and was helpless.
Although the huge air battleship has powerful weapons, the royal magician also possesses countless powerful magics, enough to shoot down any intruder that dares to appear in front of him.
However, with regard to this thick cloud layer, Haigero and Drechs obviously did not intend to waste their efforts in vain.
They could only make adequate preparations for attack and follow the black flying boat that got into the clouds.
Both Hagero and Drekes were fully confident that they could crush the intruder into pieces in an instant.
At this moment, they were waiting for the moment when the black intruder emerged from the clouds.
Likewise, both Hegeero and Drekes had already guessed the intentions of the Montita people.
However, these two people did not care at all about whether Vedsk would be attacked or how heavy the losses would be in the attack.
Kaoqi was not Drex's homeland in the first place, and Vedsk was not a place he cherished.
As for Hegeello, even if those Montita people unfortunately hit the Emperor, it would not make him feel the slightest sadness. He even very much hoped that the annoying Majesty would unfortunately become a target.
Just as Hagriro and Drekes were each with their own thoughts and wary of the thick clouds, suddenly, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the clouds, and the black flying boat was like a flying boat. Like lightning, it rushed straight towards the palace in the center of Vedsk.
The glaring electric light and the flashing sparks appeared almost simultaneously on Vedsk's layup.
The colorful scene is enough to make anyone who sees it feel enchanted.
What followed was a deafening roar.
The loud noise of the explosion shook the entire capital in an instant.
Almost all the Vedsk people ran out of the house in panic.
Everyone looked in horror at the bright red clouds that were rolling in the sky and shining with dim golden light.
Under the red clouds, a few scattered, dark things were falling from the high sky.
Just as everyone was talking in confusion about what it was and what happened in the sky above Vedsk, suddenly, a dull explosion sounded from a distance.
Immediately afterwards, billowing smoke and dim firelight floated up in the northern corner of Vedsk.
In the smoke and the firelight that reflected the sky, the Vedsk people seemed to see death and wailing.
Some people seemed to see the clouds of war shrouding this city full of glory and splendor.
The smoke rising into the sky is the flag waving vigorously by the God of War.
