Above the mage!

Chapter 414 Turnaround
"Follow Master Theodore and charge forward!"

The entire phalanx of high-level mages turned into a real sharp arrow, crashing into the wave of wind elemental creatures with the force of thunder, forcefully breaking through the tidal army of wind elemental creatures.

The dense green figures were torn into pieces like pieces of paper in front of them.

The erupting elemental energy formed small storms one after another.

Master Theodore was at the front of the team, Count Roland and other noble mages with titles were on both sides of the team, and the others were looking after the rear.

Master Theodore is already very old.

But mages are different from traditional knights. As knights age, their blood and muscles atrophy, and their fighting power naturally weakens.

As a mage grows older, his experience and knowledge will also increase, and he will only become more and more powerful.

Now, as the chief magician of Oakland City, he has demonstrated his powerful strength.

The surface of the obsidian staff he held tightly was swirling wildly, and the tip of the staff continuously emitted colorful magical auras.

Mage Theodore broke through the encirclement of wind elemental creatures with his own strength alone, without stopping for a moment, so that the entire team would not be blocked by the army of wind elemental creatures.

The mage side can see that something is not right and adjust the strategy in time.

As a wind elemental creature that has begun to materialize, the wind dragon also possesses extremely high spirituality and wisdom.

Faced with the sudden change of formation by the mage's side, it instantly realized the other party's intention.

The wind dragon's eyes, made of hurricane whirlpools, looked down, and the huge wings on its back began to flap.

call!call!call!
The wind element energy in the secondary plane of the wind element seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand. The heavy wind sound like pulling a bellows whistled with its movement and came through the wind network.

Then.

Two sky-high tornadoes were formed, whistling through the wind and sweeping towards the magician formation.

As they moved forward, the two tornadoes continued to grow larger. When they left the wind network, they had already connected the sky and the earth, which was extremely spectacular.

So much so that even wind elemental creatures with extremely strong control over air currents were affected and began to stagger.

As the target of the two tornadoes, the pressure faced by the mage phalanx is self-evident.

Gao De raised his head and looked at the two terrifying tornadoes summoned by the wind dragon flapping its wings.

"Is a mere fifth-level creature so powerful?" He felt shocked and excited.

Level five can only be regarded as a middle to high level in the supernatural power system of this world.

What kind of inhuman power will the sixth and seventh rings above possess?
Some of them are hard to imagine.

But to be honest, although it looked scary, he wasn't too worried.

With the help of the farsightedness of his Mandorla Magic Eye, God could clearly see the calm expression on Master Theodore's face.

It was this look that made him feel at ease.

In front of the huge tornado, individuals seem insignificant.

However, the extraordinary power of magic allows an individual to contend with enormous power.

The cyan element on Master Theodore's body became a little more intense, forming a flowing light film on his body surface.

This increased his flying speed again, and he rushed out directly, leaving a green light trail behind him.

In the blink of an eye, he had gone from the arrow position of the team to the point where he was out of the team.

Master Theodore went straight to the two tornadoes blocking his way.

He swung the obsidian staff held in his right hand vigorously.

A flame spewed out from the gem on the top of the staff, spreading rapidly, twisting and climbing like a living thing, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a blazing wall of fire in front of the two tornadoes.

The raindrops falling from the sky evaporated into mist before they even hit the fire wall.

A sizzling sound of something burning could be heard in the air.

【Fire wall technique】

A fourth-level evocation spell.

Two tornadoes and the fire wall collided with each other.

A deafening roar suddenly erupted, causing everyone's eardrums to feel a sharp pain.

The flames and the strong winds clashed fiercely. The wall of fire continued to deform under the tearing of the tornado, turning into countless burning fire snakes hovering in the sky.

The tornado emitted green smoke under the high temperature of the fire wall, and the wind element inside was ignited, causing small explosions one after another.

Master Theodore gritted his teeth, all the runes on the obsidian staff lit up, and he swung the staff downwards.

The wall of fire suddenly split and reorganized into two giant flaming dragons, which drilled into the tornado and disturbed it from the inside out.

As the tornado dissipated, visible air waves spread out in all directions, directly sweeping away the group of wind element creatures gathered nearby.

A smooth path briefly appeared.

"Take advantage of now and charge towards Fengluo!" ordered Master Theodore.

A blue light film rose from the body surface of all the mages in the mage formation, and they sped up and moved forward rapidly.

Everyone rushed and finally arrived in front of Feng Luo.

This is a huge space crack, like the open mouth of a giant beast, with chaotic energy surging at the edge of the crack.

The green vortex ejected by the wind dragon is continuously pouring out from the center.

The green vortex contained terrifying energy fluctuations, like a sharp blade, cutting through the surrounding air. Even a fourth-ring mage would be killed immediately if he dared to face it head-on.

But fortunately, the space crack is large enough, and there is a lot of space that is not affected by the blue vortex.

However, the turbulent flow of wind elements that continued to overflow from the edge of the crack still caused the surrounding air to distort and deform, forming pieces of flickering halos.

Master Theodore looked back at the four-ring mages behind him and found that their formations could no longer be maintained intact because of the airflow suction force caused by the blue vortex.

"Attack the wind dragon!" Master Theodore shouted, his voice still clearly audible even in such a chaotic environment.

He is also the fastest.

Master Theodore tightly grasped the obsidian staff, and the runes on the staff suddenly burst out with dazzling golden light.

The entire staff seemed to be infused with the power of the sun, and a bright beam of light with a radius of thirty feet rose from the staff.

When the beam of light first appeared, it was just a faint golden light, but it suddenly expanded like a newborn sun.

The dazzling light dispelled the gloom at the moment.

The beam of light released a heart-pounding pressure, penetrating the wind network that was close at hand.

The space crack made a buzzing sound as if it could not bear the heavy weight, and the dark purple cracks at the edge twisted wildly, as if resisting this powerful force.

This is also the reason why Master Theodore led everyone to attack Fengluo.

Despite the instinctive resistance of the space crack, the light column still entered the secondary plane and fell towards the wind dragon hovering in front of Fengluo.

There was a strange color flashing in the wind dragon's pupils.

But it didn't move at all.

Because at this moment most of its energy is focused on countering the Oakland Magic Crystal Cannon.

Compared to the Oakland Magic Crystal Cannon, it is obviously more able to withstand the spells of Master Theodore.

Of course, this is only relative.

The moment the beam of light touched the wind dragon's body, an earth-shaking roar erupted.

The golden light energy submerged the wind dragon like a tide.

The blue vortex around the wind dragon shattered in the golden light, turning into countless tiny wind element particles. [Dawn].

A fifth-ring evocation spell.

It is also the first fifth-ring spell cast by Master Theodore so far.

A first-level wizard may cast mostly first-level spells in combat.

However, the higher the level of the mage, the more likely the spells he or she uses most are not high-level spells, but spells lower than his or her own mage level.

One is that high-level spells have extremely high casting time and spell cost, which is not conducive to frequent casting.

Another point is that the higher the level, the fewer corresponding spells there are, and the more resources are required for spell recipes and constructing spell models.

Therefore, the higher the level of the mage, the number of high-level spells he masters actually decreases sharply.

Master Theodore has always done this before.

Neither the fire shield surrounding his body nor the flying spell are fifth-ring spells.

But now, facing the wind dragon, he finally used his most powerful five-ring spell.

The results are visible to the naked eye.

The joyful expression on Master Theodore's face had not yet fully unfolded before it was suddenly retracted a moment later.

Because the green crystal core in the wind dragon's translucent glass head suddenly rotated.

The wind element particles that were stripped from the wind dragon's body were reintegrated into the wind dragon's body as the blue crystal core rotated.

Although it still looks a little unreal and not as solid as before, it has indeed been "returned to its original owner" and the damage has been reduced to a minimum.

The assault before Fengluo was the key.

But on the main battlefield, the battle between low-level mages and wind elemental creatures is also very crucial.

Every time a wind elemental creature is destroyed, the energy of the wind elemental secondary plane is reduced.

In fact, less than a quarter of an hour had passed since the war began.

But there were too many wind elemental creatures, so everyone cast spells without stopping, one after another, and their mana reserves were beginning to run out.

This is a bad sign.

On one hand, the mana reserves are about to run out, but on the other hand, as far as the eye can see, the number of wind elemental creatures does not seem to decrease at all.

The only one who was happy in the entire battlefield was perhaps Gaode, the Storm Soul who had just been upgraded to the first stage.

It seems that although the Storm Soul is not an energy creature, it has completed its transformation by absorbing pure wind element energy, and its body no longer contains any other elements except wind element energy.

Therefore, in the perception of wind elemental creatures with low intelligence, the Storm Soul is their same kind.

With this understanding, the Storm Soul was like a fish in water, absorbing the energy of the wind element unscrupulously and happily.

Even the wind element energy in the area was not enough for it to absorb, so it began to move around tentatively.

Gao De hesitated for a moment.

After all, the situation on the battlefield is chaotic.

Although wind elemental creatures regard the Storm Soul as a friendly force, they will not attack him.

But spells have no eyes, and with Storm Soul running around on the battlefield like this, there's a high probability that it'll be affected by the spells of mages on other ships, and it might have to be remade if it's not careful.

But Gaode thought that if he missed this opportunity, how could there be such a continuous supply of wind element energy for the Storm Soul to absorb?
Finally, he gritted his teeth and decided to take the risk and give Storm Soul freedom.

Without Gaode's restrictions, Storm Soul let loose completely and headed straight for the most intense part of the battlefield, the Crown of Thorns.

The most intense one also means the most wind elemental creatures are defeated, and the more wind elemental energy can be absorbed.

It had clearly just entered the first stage of form. At this moment, a deep emerald green light spot had appeared at the core of the Storm Soul's body.

That is a sign that the energy core is beginning to condense.

Once the energy core is completely condensed, it means that the Storm Soul has entered the second stage form.

After that, it can absorb free energy from the outside world through the energy core to complete its own advancement.

In other words, the Storm Soul in its second form is no longer a money-eating beast that needs to be "fed" by God, but an "adult" who can support himself.

Generally speaking, whether advancing to the first or second form, it requires spending huge amounts of money to purchase corresponding treasures to strengthen the Soul of the Wilderness.

Gaode's Storm Soul upgrade is not only progressing rapidly at this moment, but also completely free.

How can one word "earn money" describe it?
The Storm Soul was extremely fast. After Godel released the restrictions, it arrived at the area where the Crown of Thorns was located in just a few blinks of an eye.

The huge beam of light shot out from the Oakland Magic Crystal Cannon shot up into the sky, still in a fierce confrontation with the green vortex spewed out by the wind dragon in the wind network.

However, the Orrick crystal that served as an energy source had already begun to turn white, which meant that the magic power contained within it was about to be exhausted.

The area surrounding the straight column connecting the golden light column and the green vortex is surrounded by the most wind element energy.

The Storm Soul almost instinctively moved upward along the column of light, continuously consuming the overflowing wind element energy.

At the core of its body, that spot of emerald green light was growing slowly but steadily.

Before the wind.

Master Theodore looked particularly ugly.

In contrast, there was a barely perceptible hint of pride in Feng Long's huge pupils.

"This wind network has greatly reduced the power of my spells." Master Theodore explained the fundamental reason.

Count Roland saw that something was wrong: "Master Theodore, what should we do?"

Under the reduction of wind networks, even a five-ring spell cannot directly annihilate the wind element energy that makes up the wind dragon's body.

This allows it to use the blue crystal to reabsorb the dissipated wind element energy, thereby minimizing the damage it suffers.

"Unless you can enter the secondary plane and face the wind dragon directly." Master Theodore murmured.

But this is impossible.

The wind network has not yet taken shape and can only allow third-order wind elemental creatures to pass through. Therefore, the wind dragon is restricted to the secondary plane of wind elements.

But this restriction works both ways.

Even though their lowest mage level is the fourth ring, they are also unable to enter the secondary plane of wind element through the wind network.

The three-ring mage was not hindered.

But the problem is, even if a third-ring mage can pass through the wind network, what can he do when facing a fifth-level wind dragon?

You cannot enter it, and the power of all spells cast will be reduced by the wind network when passing through it.

"Attack, attack! It's just that the effect will be greatly reduced, but it's not useless!" In this situation, it is meaningless to worry too much about things that cannot be changed. Master Theodore gritted his teeth and gave the order.

He placed his staff horizontally, and the light shone again.

【dawn】!
The four-ring mages who received the order all used their most proficient four-ring spells to attack the wind dragon through the wind network.

The battlefield is divided into three areas.

One is the bombardment launched by the high-level magician formation on the wind dragon.

The other part is the continued confrontation between the Wind Dragon and the Oakland Magic Crystal Cannon.

The last part is the battle between the fleet and an unknown number of wind elemental creatures.

In this intense situation, no one noticed that a slightly sneaky figure was rising up along the "line" between the green vortex and the golden light column, approaching Feng Luo.
