1364 Heavy obstruction (1)

The micro-missiles launched from the ground were so fast that the three armed airships that were attacked first had no time to put up their protective shields before they were hit in their vital parts by the missiles.

In the violent explosion, the armed airship was quickly dismembered, and the passengers inside were swallowed by the sea of fire. Painful screams were endless, and fireballs fell from the sky one after another. Only a few mages were lucky enough to escape.

Then, the armed airship that was hit fell to the ground with a huge explosion, and thick smoke and flames rose into the sky.

The remaining armed airships finally raised their protective shields and intercepted the missiles one by one. However, under the terrifying impact of the explosion, these protective shields could not last for long.

The defensive strength of these protective shields was designed to counter the intensity of the war on the continent. However, the attack power of Holy Dragon city’s weapons far exceeded this standard. It was not a strange thing for them to be broken in a short time.

Fortunately, the people participating in this operation were the elites selected from the three great empires. They had rich commanding experience, so even when they were attacked, they still commanded in an orderly manner.

While actively defending, they commanded the armed airships to fight back. Missiles were fired from the armed airships, heading straight to the launch site.

The ground suddenly rang out with a loud noise. There were sparks everywhere, and gravel and dust soared into the sky. It looked extremely shocking.

The mages flew out from the armed airships one after another. They were unable to play their role to the fullest within the airships, so they dodged like a swarm of bees, searching for the position of the enemy to attack.

However, it was only at this moment that they realized that there was no enemy around. It was as if the attacks from the weapons were automatic.

It could be said that from the beginning until now, they had been fighting against invisible enemies!

The dozen or so Hao Yue mages had grave expressions. After confirming that there were no enemies in the surroundings, they immediately ordered their subordinates to rescue the injured. At the same time, they sent even more mages to Scout the surroundings.

The matter was already very clear. The enemy must have already understood their movements, so they had set up an ambush here.

The feeling of being schemed against was very unpleasant. It was as if they were like silly rabbits that had fallen into the trap set by others.

“Things have changed. It’s obvious that the other party is well prepared. I guess there will be more ambushes waiting for us. Now, everyone, how should we deal with them?”

A mage from the blazing flame Empire who was proficient in alchemy looked at the broken pieces of the weapon on the ground with a gloomy expression. He had already confirmed the origin of this weapon. It was clearly the same type of weapon that had attacked the military camp.

Through this, he could confirm that the two attacks were done by the same force.

One of the three armed airships that had been shot down belonged to the flame Empire. After a search and rescue, only a few dozen survivors were found. The rest had died in the explosion.

With the new and old grudges added together, this bright moon Wizard was even more eager to see the mastermind behind the scenes and settle all scores with them.

However, as the person in charge of the raging flame Empire, he could not let his emotions get the better of him. He knew that there were many dangers ahead, yet he still allowed his subordinates to risk their lives and continue moving forward.

I think we should wait here and contact the rear to send more armed airships to support.

The bright moon Mage from the Eternal Empire felt that they should not continue advancing. The ambush just now had already shown him the power of Holy Dragon City.

In just one wave of attacks, they had already lost three armed airships and over 2000 elite combat personnel.

In the three great empires “close to a hundred years of history, there had never been such heavy casualties. Looking at the charred remains on the ground, even the dozen or so determined Haoyue mages could not bear to see it.

The bright moon Mage of the Eternal Empire didn’t want his subordinates to suffer any casualties, so he suggested to wait for reinforcements.

“If we don’t move forward after suffering a little casualty, how are we going to figure out the enemy’s specific situation? Time was extremely precious right now, and the slightest hesitation could lead to more unforeseen circumstances.

The other party is like a sharp sword hanging over our heads. It can fall at any time, but it doesn’t necessarily fall on anyone’s neck. Therefore, the earlier we get information on the enemy, the more beneficial it will be for us.

If the other party is really a threat to us, then the information we collect will be extremely important. It will also prompt the Empire to send troops to eliminate them in the shortest time possible!”

The radiant Empire’s wizard Hao Yue strongly opposed it. His long white beard trembled as he spoke, clearly very agitated.

The reason why this mage was so excited, other than wanting to figure out the enemy’s intelligence as soon as possible, was because the missing Bishop was his younger brother, and several of his disciples had also died in the explosion just now.

Two consecutive heavy blows had already caused this radiant Empire wizard to be in a state of Fury. If it was not for the fact that the operation required the three parties to negotiate, and the radiant Empire could not resist the enemy’s attack alone, this bright moon Wizard might have already led his men and set off!

Although the radiant Empire’s mages were swayed by their emotions, what he said made sense. If they were to cower, they would likely miss the opportunity.

Although they had been ambushed, they had been prepared for casualties before they set off. In the end, when casualties appeared, they had chosen to retreat.

If this matter were to be spread back to the Empire, they would most likely be ridiculed. To wizard Hao Yue, this was a humiliation that he could not bear.

After some serious consideration, the mages decided to continue moving forward.

However, before that, they still contacted the rear to send armed airships to collect the bodies of those who died in the attack. No matter what the reason was, they could not let their bodies be exposed in the wilderness.

After taking care of everything, everyone returned to their respective armed airships and continued to move forward. However, they were much more cautious this time. The protective shield of the armed airships was always on, and the weapon system was always pointing at any suspicious location.

Although doing so would increase the energy consumption of the armed airships, it was completely acceptable. If there were no accidents, the energy stored in advance was enough to allow the armed airships to go back and forth smoothly.

But even so, they were soon hit by the second wave of attacks.

Dozens of drones suddenly appeared and started shooting from a distance. The energy weapons they carried had a long range and were powerful. Their speed was far faster than the armed airships.

The main purpose of these drones was to investigate and block. They were usually equipped with energy weapons and had strong survival and combat power.

In the eyes of the mages, the flying drones were like annoying flies, flying around the armed airships, making them feel annoyed.

They wanted to shoot down these annoying things, but the weapons on the airships couldn’t lock on to them at all. On the contrary, the weapons of these drones were extremely sharp. It only took a dozen attacks to penetrate the protective shield of the armed airships.

The battle had only lasted for a few minutes, but the huge armed airship was already covered in wounds of all sizes. Although it was not enough to cause the airship to crash, it still caused a lot of trouble.

During this period, some mages tried to leave the ship to attack, but after being turned into fireballs, no one dared to run out and show off.

Seeing that the damage on the armed airships was increasing, and that only a few droids were damaged and had fallen, the bright moon mages could no longer hold back their anger. They rushed out one after another and surrounded the droids.

As soon as the bright moon mages, who had the strength of King-tier cultivators, made their move, they immediately shot down several drones, making everyone on the armed airship cheer in unison.

However, at this moment, a ray of light flew past in the sky, and streaked across the body of a bright moon Wizard.

The bright moon Wizard did not even have time to scream before he was cut into two by the stream of light. He was then hit by the energy beam shot by the drone and turned into dust in an instant!
