How to carry out a rescue during a magical disaster, legon still has experience.
In the Demon Disaster Realm, the ones developing new islands were not all Sky Knights; there were also ordinary people responsible for life and production. Although they generally had the strength of Tier Two to Tier Three to face the crisis, they still couldn’t cope with the terrifying magical disaster.
Sotis, demons flew all over the sky, beast-like demons ran wild on the flat ground, while countless snakes and insects writhed in the undulating hills and ravines. Sotis, a Super Demon with magic power so strong that it could tear the dinsional mbrane passed by, and the magic wind from its breath could easily blow ordinary people into dust.
At this mont in the City of the Ship’s Rudder, it seed like both situations were present.
Although the apparent strong enemy was the Destruction Battleship like the Steel Giant God, as it bombarded, the dinsional mbrane within the city beca very unstable, and quite a few small demons had already appeared, while so street-side plants began to mutate.
More threatening were those Annihilation Knights pouring out of the shipyard, entering the streets to implent order suppression for the Empire.
Faced with such a situation, the usual practice of the Order Investigation Corps was to find a way to stealthily evacuate the residents.
Now, legon was doing the sa.
However, under the Empire’s control, the Destruction Battleship did not care about the losses in the City of the Ship’s Rudder at all. To attack the ancient giant ship of the Island Founder, it continuously used bizarre vertical light cannons. If those light spheres did not hit the Fallen Island Battleship, most of them would fall into the city.
legon didn’t rule out the possibility that the Empire deliberately considered this point, intending to make the Fallen Island Battleship hesitant, unable to exert its full power.
After eliminating the Annihilation Knights suppressing the port, legon had many private ships leave while negotiating with those related to the guild who owned large ships, hoping they would help rescue the residents.
Flos Sky Realm was originally peaceful, and the most common on the sky islands here were workers and tourists, with few adventurers. Even an area like the Aomori Islands, which was popular among fledgling Sky Knights, was not close to the City of the Ship’s Rudder, so the guild here was small, and there were few Sky Knights. Apart from the unique Fellowship of Fortunate Stars stationed here and the Sky Knights needed for shipbuilding, few strong individuals would co.
The Empire was well-prepared, having thoroughly investigated with the Soul Apex, and there was even more emptiness here in terms of combat strength when they arrived. Nevertheless, there were so Sky Knights, and it was their help that legon sought.
Of course, so people were unwilling, so legon had them leave on other people’s ships, requisitioning their ships in the na of the guild, which would provide compensation later.
anwhile, the cavalry from the Flower Sword Group sent out to report had already left the island, subsequently to be supported by combat boats from the Order Flower Sword Corps. The dinsional shock caused by the appearance of the Destruction Battleship had left the City of the Ship’s Rudder in a slight magical disaster, resulting in complete failure of communication equipnt.
Afterwards, legon returned to the city with his people and began persuading others to leave with him.
The streets had scattered Annihilation Knights and demons born from the disasters triggered by the Destruction Battleship. Although many people were scared, they felt safer staying indoors, and only a few were willing to head to the port under their protection.
The might of the Destruction Battleship fully reached the Transcendent Demon level. It was rely entangled by the Fallen Island Battleship; the people in Flos Sky Realm had no idea what disaster would occur if it fully destroyed the city.
Even though its main target was the Fallen Island Battleship, streets hit by the light spheres still got affected, coincidentally striking near the roads where legon was leading the evacuation. The destruction shock waves from the reversed attribute tore apart the foundations of a series of buildings, causing many structures to collapse like dominoes and slide down the island’s slope like a landslide.
The knights blocked the landslide from affecting this area by smashing the building debris. The civilians beside them were terrified into speechlessness by seeing the mangled limbs in the debris, deeply realizing the wisdom in the Flower Sword Knights’ suggestion.
However, a large area of houses collapsed, exposing a group of people who were originally advancing under the shadows of the buildings.
Distant thunder rumbled, and several Annihilation Knights surrounded the group like black lightning.
"They’re damn persistent!" cursed the vanguard among the Order Knights.
"Protect the civilians, I’ll handle this!"
legon pulled the reins of his falcon, rising in blue light and lightning, circling to gather power before diving swiftly like a thunderbolt arrow through these Black Armored Knights. As the thunder roared past, the Annihilator Flesh on them producing Annihilation’s Thunder was utterly insignificant.
The Order Knight Commander, not discussing certain exceptions in the Celestial Group, were the strongest individuals in Nebis.
legon decelerated slightly, just about to return, when he noticed the world in front of him suddenly slowing down dramatically.
This, one, move, is?
Bewildered and with sluggish thoughts, he didn’t have ti to think, narrowly avoiding a beam suddenly passing beside him at a crucial mont. It dispersed rapidly like starlight points, and on the end of its extended line, within a dinsional rift, stood a person cloaked in a Divine Eye Cloak.
"Quick, go!"
Seeing the commander moving strangely slow, the Order Knights realized he was afflicted by an effect similar to the weakening spell the witch had used earlier, leaving one to take the civilians away while the others returned to support.
They spread out to prevent that kind of spell from targeting multiple people at once.
Within the dinsional rift, with the Eye of God gesturing with both hands, Starlight Lines continuously shot out, crossing to sweep and annihilate this street area, slicing swathes of houses and pavent into fragnts.
An Annihilation Knight got wounded in the lines, with his armor cut like it didn’t exist by the starlight.
legon exerted all his might to draw magic power, and his knowing falcon did the sa, yet the surrounding thunder transford from magic power was equally slow. He could only dissipate part of the starlight before him, breaking free from the slow effect only when most knights had fallen.
"Die!"
Both horrified and infuriated by this mysterious enemy, the Knight Commander lifted his Treasure Artifacts, launching a Secret Technique in a charge atop his steed, a green light seemingly cutting through everything, stabbing toward the dinsional rift.
Knowing he couldn’t withstand this move, the Eye of God swiftly cast a spell, withdrawing inside the rift with lightning speed, clearly using an Acceleration Technique.
legon’s attack could only affect the periphery, missing due to his abrupt acceleration.
Except for this mysterious enemy, he had never seen anyone in Nebis capable of entering the rift between two dinsions. It was not the sa concept as traversing a Space Gate, it was like being stuffed between Space Gates.
In the state of acceleration, the Divine Eye perford a complex casting with both hands. legon felt the surrounding magic power pulsating in a discordant manner, but this was not an attack; it was a kind of area imprisonnt.
Glittering starlight chains arose around them, blocking the knights’ path, and the real attack followed swiftly.
In the sky, behind the Steel Giant God, a row of cannon muzzles suddenly lit up, gathering elental light and fiercely radiating towards the ground.
The incarcerating chain formation was essentially marked for aerial strikes.
They were hit.
legon had never witnessed such coordination. Although he could cut through the chains in front of him with his Treasure Artifacts, the mbers’ equipnt was not capable of that. At that mont, it was too late for the knights to leave.
All he could do was unfold the Domain, trying the least efficient thod to defend and buying ti with his life.
Acceleration Domain!
Li Ang leaped down from The Howling Wolf, raised his Magic Staff high, and cast the acceleration effect over all present. The Demon Arm fully threw out the Oathbreaker’s Vengeance Thornlance.
The black spear liberated its form midair, shattering into Counterattack Dark Blades, yet counterattack was rely its passive effect; at this mont, they could weave through and cut the chains as well.
The freed knights quickly dispersed and retreated, while legon flew out of the bombardnt range, circling and gathering strength to head straight for the Divine Eye, who had just returned to the rift’s edge.
The latter was not surprised by Li Ang’s arrival and the subsequent reversal of the situation, simply watching him intently while slowly retreating into the rift, closing the door.
"Apostles of the Six-Ard Saint King, do not go too far. Assist my God in returning to the world, and you shall share in the rewards."
This ssage from the "Divine Eye" echoed in Li Ang’s ears.
The Divine Eye had not only seen him but also the nearby Er i, hence their imdiate departure. They knew these beings’ weaknesses, blocking their casting techniques at every turn, leaving them no room to display their bizarre spells.
Everyone withdrew into the distance, reconvening at another sheltered spot after the Destruction Battleship pulverized the surrounding area.
"Thanks for the support, it’s all thanks to you!"
The always composed legon appeared quite excited as he grasped Li Ang’s shoulder.
"I wondered if sothing like this might happen, which is why I rushed over after finishing on my side," Li Ang said.
"Who exactly are those people?"
"I don’t really know their true background, just that they’re likely the masterminds behind the Empire, this suddenly ergent faction, who have been striving for the revival of their ’God’ for an untold number of years."
legon looked at Li Ang, appearing as if he wanted to ask sothing else, perhaps about why these people’s magic was similar to his, but now was clearly not the ti.
The battle in the sky continued, night had fallen, yet the cannon fire from the two gigantic entities lit the skies as bright as day. The scattered gunfire was gradually damaging the City of the Ship’s Rudder.
legon’s face showed signs of fatigue: "Next, we’ll have to wait for the outside mbers to arrive to carry out the rescue; the mbers here are seriously injured."
The equipnt provided by the Guild to the elite of the Order Knight Order was not inferior even compared to the Celestial Group, except for those who could find truly good items from ancient relics. Even among the Celestial Group mbers, having a full set of Divine Armor was rare.
"Captain, we seem to be fine..." a mber said.
"What’s going on?" legon turned in surprise, seeing the mber point to the newly ford skin beneath the shattered armor.
"So healing power helped us."
legon looked at Li Ang questioningly, the latter shook his head, indicating it wasn’t his doing.
The Knight Commander was puzzled, while Li Ang squinted. He noticed a thin layer of water mist condensing on the knights’ armor.
The climate in the Flos Sky Realm was warm and humid, so mist and dew appearing in the cooling night was not unusual, but the water mist was evidently different, containing a faint layer of magic power.
He turned to the two young girls beside him who knew water best and whispered: "Is it the Water Dragon?"
"It should be," ii replied.
In the sky above, outside the main battlefield of the giant entities, everything was shrouded in haze and hard to see clearly.
Since just now, the Water Dragon transformation had vanished without a trace, and now, this mist was becoming bigger, dimming even the moonlight to an opalescent glow.
The Water Pillar supporting the world was aiding those fighting here in its own way.
"Soone is helping us, which is good. Let’s continue the rescue," legon instructed his mbers.
Beyond the fog, a few large ships were approaching the tallic Sky Island in the night.
