Chapter 631
Chapter 631 Frail as Rotten Leaves
On the distant horizon, three hippogryphs were desperately fleeing.
They flew up and down, turning, tossing, and performing all sorts of evasive maneuvers.
The elven archers on their backs were also fruitlessly drawing their bows and loosing arrows at the massive metal ship chasing behind them.
Sadly, the metal ship continued to fly above the cloud layers. The arrows of the elven archers were whisked to the side by the powerful wind vortices outside the ship before they could hit their target. The plates at the bottom of the vessel opened up, revealing several black cannon barrels. Over twenty to thirty purple energy lasers the width of bowls fired in a single volley.
Energy lasers of this level could envelop a space of over a hundred square meters with every volley. No aerial unit within the area could rely on their agility to avoid such a dense concentration of an energy barrage.
Two of the three hippogryphs failed to escape in time and were riddled with holes before the horrified gazes of Hegus and Cidaris, the bodies of the beasts exploding into flesh and blood. The elven archers on their backs didn’t escape their ill fate either; they died along with their steeds.
“It’s that metal demon!” Cidaris roared furiously and pulled out an elven saber from his waist.
After all, those who cruised along the sea couldn’t possibly outrun that which flew in the sky!
Seven minutes later, the flying ship caught up with the two battleships. Both ships were sunk amidst much creaking and groaning from three rounds of concentrated fire.
For a moment, large amounts of debris and countless struggling elven warriors floated in the sea.
The flying ship didn’t seem to be concerned about these weak elves. Its large hull adjusted itself once again, giving up on exterminating these capsized elves, and turned around to fly toward the Echo Isles.
There, the Dark Witches and Pale Witches had emerged from their stronghold and were standing before the main fortress of the main island. They were looking upon this massacre above the sea from a distance!
“Disregarding the magical crystal exhaustion and cost, such metal fortresses that can fly in the skies would truly be undefeatable and powerful existences within all lesser planes.” The Third Grade Dark Witch Uzzah couldn’t help but nod and give her praise.
Alice might only be of First Grade, but if she could offer up this flying ship, then she just barely had the right to cooperate with her.
Uzzah, who had still been holding some doubts about this partnership, immediately became all smiles.
The Fate Witches might have plenty of magical crystals and were extravagantly using the flying ship. However, in the end, they couldn’t produce someone who could hold down the fort. Thus, Uzzah just might be able to obtain the dominant position in this operation and make Alice bow to her every whim and fancy!
On the other hand, the Third Grade Pale Witch in charge of guarding this island didn’t directly show herself. Instead, she hid within the strong fortress and used her Spirit to assess this strange flying ship silently.
Even she couldn’t help but treat it as the flying ships of the Silver Union when she first saw it– transportation vehicles that could only ferry passengers and goods. However, her Spirit was immediately arrested outside the ship by a peculiar energy field layer when she extended it toward the ship.
Hmm? An energy field?
The Third Grade Pale Witch was surprised once again.
Could the Fate Witches be so wasteful as to put on an energy field for such a massive battleship?! How many magical crystals had this cost them!
These unpredictable Fate Witches.
The Third Grade Pale Witch sighed helplessly.
