I'm still considering if I should write another one. Sigh …
The Purple Gold Dragon was frustrated. Its power was suppressed to Level-12, and the city's territory weakened its attributes in Alchemy City. It was also afraid that the Ironblood Duke would die at any moment. In the end, such a powerful dragon had to run for its life, and now these people were chasing it.
It couldn't take it anymore!
When it swooped down, it first spat out dragon breath. At this level, it could spit out as much dragon breath as it wanted. Being suppressed to a lower level had its benefits too; it could save energy.
If a human spat, they might get thirsty, but when a dragon spat out dragon breath, there was basically no stopping.
The Purple Gold Dragon's dragon breath was like extremely fine wind blades, and it also had high temperature attributes. Even the sorcerers who could resist high temperatures couldn't resist the metal particles that were smaller than dust particles in the dragon breath.
Persia wasn't willing to fall behind. He knew that the Duke had lost too many insect angel warriors, and that was why he was so angry. If it wasn't for his persistence, they could have left with the least cost.
Now, only 50,000 insect angel warriors left Alchemy City, and 16,000 of them were Salin's. That meant that out of 200,000 insect angel warriors, only 34,000 left alive.
These were the Ironblood Duke's elite troops. How could the Duke remain calm after losing so many?
One had to know that the Duke had chosen the weakest period of Alchemy City for this attack. The spies in Alchemy City had collected information for many years, and the conclusion they came to after analysis was what made the Duke decide to attack at this time.
The Duke had invested more than 200,000 sets of armor. The value of each set was enough to form a small team of elite cavalry in the Empire. There were also the corresponding magic cores and scrolls, not to mention the magic cannons and large puppets that would be completely destroyed after this battle.
At the dock, the Duke had suffered great losses. In order to land at the dock and attract the attention of Alchemy City, at least a thousand Ironblood Warriors had died there. Alchemy City had lost the Magic Tower, and the Ironblood Duke had lost a Level-Nine warrior.
The Ironblood Duke had won the battle on the sea, but he had used up more magic cores and metal magic bombs.
Such a huge investment, because of his own needs at the last moment, the return was a little low. The Duke had lost the most Predators. They were the foundation of the Duke's family.
Campos felt guilty. If he could obtain the fragments of the god's body, of course, he could make up for these losses. Now that he had obtained a pile of frozen monkeys, Campos was not confident. It would be unfair to the Duke if it was worthless.
After all, he had sworn that he knew what was in this warehouse.
How could it be wrong? When the fragments of the God's body had been transported back, he had been paying attention to them. The materials were divided into three places and no one was allowed to bring any spatial equipment into the warehouse. No one could embezzle these things. Otherwise, Persia would not be so enthusiastic about it.
These warehouses were for long-term use. He had not been away from Alchemy City for long, and he had planted spies in the city. These spies were tasked with keeping an eye on these three warehouses.
Among the metal gears of Inpos, the small gears that were less than a foot in diameter seemed to be endless. Dozens of them were shot out at once. The mages in the team of mages fought back while raising their energy shields to resist.
He couldn't block it!
These small metal gears were as lethal as Level Nine spells. Without the help of the Mage Tower, the mages' defense had more than doubled. To defend against Level Nine spells, they needed at least Level Eight mages.
Three of them rushed forward with hundreds of warriors. Immediately, a storm of blood rained down on the mages.
The leading Level Ten mage was shocked. How could the mages under him be so weak?
Actually, it was not the mages' fault that they were too weak. It was because Salin's territory had become invisible. There was no more electricity running around. It was as if such a territory did not exist.
Where there was silence, there was thunder.
Salin used Cloud Walking. His flying speed was not slower than Campos'. His Thunder Chain Explosion in the clouds shocked all the mages below Level Seven.
"Mages from Alchemy City ambushed my warship at sea. Now, I am here to collect the debt!" After Thunder Chain Explosion, Salin released Thunder Shock loudly. The effects of the two skills were similar. Now, Salin was not fighting one-on-one, so he did not need to use it specifically.
The mages were defeated. The Elemental Hand had been too careless. Although Salin and the others had retreated in a hurry, it did not mean that a thousand mages could chase after them.
The Ironblood Grand Duke was enraged. He turned around and attacked, instantly causing the group of mages to suffer a calamity.
On the dragon, the Ironblood Grand Duke went straight for the leading Level Ten mage. This mage did not use any secret skill to forcibly increase his rank. He was a real magus.
The dragon spear stabbed down. Under the magus' feet, an energy wave flashed. The mage's body moved to the back of the mages. This mage was decisive. He knew that he was no match for a dragon knight.
No matter what spell he used, it would be blocked by a dragon of a higher level. However, that dragon spear could not withstand it.
He was fast, but Salin was faster. A layer of crystal armor appeared on the surface of Salin's body. The friction between his body and the air made the surface of the armor burn.
Salin appeared in front of the mage and tapped his forehead with a finger.
The mage's forehead exploded, but there was no blood or brain matter. Under the attack of Crystal Finger, the mage's head shattered into dust.
Salin had used up half of his magic strings in pursuit of killing power. If a Level Ten mage had seen his attack, it would not be so easy to hit him next time. The reason for this was that Salin had too little practice with Crystal Finger. A single practice would use up half of his magic strings.
Salin had too many skills to practice. He did not have the time to use Crystal Finger for combat training.
It was enough to deal with a mage who had just seen Crystal Finger. When the Level Ten mage saw Salin's finger coming, he still had the time to cast a Dark Barrier. But this Level Ten spell was pierced through by Crystal Finger. The mage had no chance to regret. His head had already been pierced by Salin.
After killing the Level Ten mage, Salin casually put the body into his star ring.
There were still many valuable items on a Level Ten mage. In an environment like Alchemy City, public items could only be stored in warehouses. Personal items were carried everywhere. No one could trust others.
This mage had worked hard for hundreds of years. In the end, Salin had benefited him. No one would have thought that there was a spell that could pierce through the shield of a mage of the same level and kill him in one hit. When Rafael was in his prime, this skill had not been created by him.
Inbos knew about this skill of Salin's, and when he saw Salin instantly kill a Rank 10 Mage, Inbos felt terrified. If he did not have the Soul Split skill, he would have died without a doubt.
In terms of speed, Salin's speed was so fast that humans could not bear it. It might be second only to a movement skill like Rainbow Spell.
Salin had released half of his Magic Strings. After killing a Level 10 Great Wizard, he wasn't done yet. He simply opened a Level 10 scroll and unfolded the Canopy of the Dark Heavens, trapping the dozens of Wizards around him and preventing them from moving. Then came Icicle. Icicles with lightning mageweaths had strong penetrative power. In the Curtain of Darkness, these mages' attributes were already weakened by half. They could not see Salin's attack. Dozens of mages were shot in the head at the same time and fell to the ground.
Salin was a strong Level Ten Great Mage. After the mages lost a Level Ten mage, the threat of a Level Nine Magic Shooter to him was much smaller. So he began to attack unscrupulously. Even though he only had half of his magic strings left, his combat power was no different from an ordinary Level Ten Great Mage.
His magic strings were twice as many as an ordinary mage's.
Neris saw Salin kill his way into the group of mages, but she did not dare to let her guard down. She put away the 12 Movements of Purgatory. Regardless of whether the insect angel warriors were under great pressure in their equipment, she transformed into the incarnation of the demon god, took out the gray memory, and rushed into the group of mages.
Against low-level mages, the lethality of the four of them was really great. The Level Ten mages under the Iron Blood Grand Duke did not even make a move, and the True Martial Arts powerhouses were also watching from both sides.
The mages continued to retreat. The city wall was more than four miles away, and they could not provide any support. The mages under the Duke, on the other hand, were on guard against the appearance of any terrifying figures in Alchemy City. Everyone had seen the giant statue. If it were not for the fact that they were slightly slow, these mages would have forced the Duke to leave long ago.
Mages would not risk their lives for something that they could not defeat.
Seeing the mages fleeing in all directions, the Iron Blood Grand Duke could not be bothered to kill anymore. He did not want to offend all the mages in the world. He just wanted to teach these people a lesson.
"Let's go." Salin saw the Iron Blood Grand Duke put away his dragon spear and replaced it with a bow and arrows. He drove away the mages who were still persisting, and he suggested leaving.
In the city, the Archangel who was still fighting looked at the floating city in the sky and seemed to think of something.
Sky City? With this thing, how could the mages of the Myers Continent be so weak? Without the Magic Tower and the magic amplification device, the Archangel was confident that he could kill dozens of times in this city.
On the north side of Alchemy City, the huge magic matrix cracked open. In the green aura, there was a terrifying purple color. It looked like condensed blood, but it also looked like the internal organs of some creature had been squeezed out and turned into gas.
The nine elders of the Elemental Hand were also concerned about this summoning matrix. Seeing the summoning matrix crack, the nine elders were very depressed.
"Failed again?"
"Yes, failed again. It seems that the stability between the planes is no longer reliable. We can't use such powerful summoning spells in the future."
"Yeah, I just don't know what will be summoned this time."
