Wizard: Starts with Advanced Meditation

At the same time, Bilim and Jaehero on both sides had also taken their positions and begun to draw sorcery runes in their consciousness world, clearly ready for battle.

"roar!!"

In an instant, a piercing roar shattered the surrounding silence, and a battle was about to break out.

The first to pounce were a group of flying magical beasts. They mechanically flapped their wings and instantly split into three groups, viciously attacking the three of them.

Their strategy was simple and brutal: to take down the three people from the air at all costs, and then join forces with the ground monsters to encircle and kill them.

Meanwhile, the monsters on the ground were not idle either.

They activated their demonized organs one by one, and instantly various buzzing sounds resounded in the passage, waiting to unleash a wave of magical bombardment on the three people in the sky.

Seeing this, Hughes and his men decided to strike first.

Taking advantage of their current air superiority, they planned to launch a preemptive bombardment of the ground before the flying monsters arrived.

The next moment, Bilim shouted:

"I've prepared a barrage of fireballs to stop those stinky birds!"

The magical beasts in the air were divided evenly, with each group consisting of two level-one magical beasts, posing a considerable threat to them.

As for Level 0? It can be ignored at present.

"Buzz—"

Upon hearing Bilim's request, Hughes immediately raised his hand and cast a short-range protective shield around him, causing a dense silver ripple to appear on his body.

At the same time, he created a slowing space around the three of them, and several Ice Dust Flying Demons that were charging at the forefront were immediately frozen in mid-air.

Not only that, several of the later-arriving Tilitz Winterbirds also failed to stop in time and collided with the stationary Ice Dust Flying Demon.

"Bang, bang bang—"

"Gah! Gah gah!!"

On the other side, taking advantage of the fact that the monster in the air was temporarily restrained, Bilim also made a move, slamming the short staff in his hand, which was engraved with flame patterns, downwards.

"Crack—!"

The next moment, the crimson crystal at the top of the staff burst forth with dazzling flames.

"Whoosh...whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Immediately, countless fireballs erupted from the tip of the short staff, pouring down like a torrential rain.

Fireballs exploded one after another, and in an instant, a series of booming sounds resounded on the ground, even causing the passage to tremble slightly.

"BOOM!! BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"

The ground instantly erupted in waves of flame, weaving into a raging net of fire above the horde of beasts.

A scorching wave of heat surged from the flames, quickly filling the entire passage and dispelling all the surrounding chill.

Those monsters that couldn't dodge in time were instantly engulfed by the flames and turned to ashes in a flash.

"Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!"

But at that moment, several enormous, bloated monsters covered in ice and rock armor slowly emerged from behind the herd.

"Splash! Splash!"

Their demonic hearts pounded wildly in their chests, and with each contraction, a massive amount of earth element gathered, causing the surrounding rocks to rise into the air and condense into a giant rock shield several meters wide above them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom boom!!"

The next moment, the fireball that came from above collided with the giant rock shield with a loud crash, but the heavy shield did not budge and withstood the bombardment of the fireball.

Upon closer inspection, the rocky surface of the giant shield seemed to ripple with a faint earthy yellow hue.

"Buzz...buzz...buzz!!"

At the same time, giant, yellowish-brown nozzles emerged from their mouths, all locking onto the three people in the air with a deafening buzzing sound.

As if drawn by a force, the other magical beasts also rushed to the vicinity of the rock-armored magical beasts, hiding under the protection of the giant rock shield as much as possible.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!! Swish swish swish!!!"

Immediately, they unleashed a barrage of breaths and spittle, a dense barrage of attacks sweeping towards the three people above like a sudden storm.

Seeing this, Hughes raised his hand and set up a deflection field.

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

In an instant, a silver energy field spread out beneath the three of them. The incoming attacks changed their trajectory upon contact with the field and crashed into the rock walls on both sides.

But at that moment, the flying magical beasts broke free from the constraints of the slowed space and pounced straight at the three of them.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Fortunately, Jaeiro intervened in time, conjuring dozens of ice spears that shot towards the freed flying monsters.

"Sizzle! Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!!"

"quack!"

Bilim immediately turned his staff around, and the surging fireballs were redirected to blast the monsters attacking from the air.

"Hughes!"

He turned his head, a rare seriousness on his face.

"Disable the deflection field and the slowing space first. You go and deal with those monsters on the ground—their thrusters are almost fully charged!"

Below, several nozzles were already glowing with an earthy yellow light. The energy contained within those nozzles was so powerful that even they, as formal wizards, felt a sense of threat.

"Watch out! Although they belong to different races, they cooperate very well!"

Jaeiro conjured dozens more ice spears and fired them at the next wave of enemies.

Hearing this, Hughes nodded and then raised his hand to deactivate the deflection field and the space-slowing effect.

The next moment, the ground offensive surged forth, while the unrestrained flock of birds in the air also rushed towards the three like a surging tide.

Fortunately, both Bilim and Jaeiro have extensive combat experience.

They immediately changed their strategy, setting up defenses while rapidly maneuvering through the air, doing everything they could to avoid attacks from all directions.

Hughes immediately swooped down, releasing resistance rings as he flew, pushing away all the attacking monsters.

but.

"Buzz—!"

When he was a few meters above the ground, he suddenly stopped and halted his dive.

He stopped directly above the herd of beasts, his eyes fixed on the nozzles, seemingly deep in thought.

……

"Buzz...buzz buzz buzz..."

On the ground, the nozzles in the mouths of those magical beasts were almost fully charged.

The yellowish-brown halo grew larger and larger, and the terrifying fluctuations that made one's heart tremble became stronger and stronger.

suddenly!

"Buzz! Buzz buzz buzz!!!"

The halo around the nozzle suddenly receded, transforming into a solid, earthy-yellow light that was almost tangible, indicating that a devastating attack was already poised to strike.

The next moment, a burst of light erupted.

"Snap—Snap snap snap snap!!!"

Suddenly, without warning, the ground cracked rapidly.

The next moment, countless icy thorns surged from the ground and coiled around the giant beast that was about to fire its cannon.
