If Mephistos was a Magician, he wouldn't have fallen for it so easily. Salin's Soul Shock had a warning, and Magicians had many ways to break it. This skill was more targeted at Warriors below level-10 with relatively weak souls.
Salin summoned the Winged Skeleton. It rushed over from the distant Metatlin City and flew out of the floating city.
"Master."
"Extract his soul. I need the details of this military town and the procedures for mobilizing troops here," Salin said, pointing at Mephistos.
The Winged Skeleton didn't hesitate. It walked up and twisted Mephistos's head off. Then it sucked on the top of the skull. Mephistos, the pinnacle of level-10 True Martial, was sucked by the Winged Skeleton into the Blood-Colored Soul Tower in its eye.
After the soul entered the Blood-Colored Soul Tower, Mephistos immediately surrendered to the Winged Skeleton and transmitted the information Salin needed.
Salin summoned Lawson. The Water Puppet walked out and changed into Mephistos's appearance according to Salin's magic image. The soldiers couldn't do anything. Salin only had one Water Puppet.
Before killing, Salin had thought of a follow-up plan. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense to kill a general of the empire. Even if Rex protected him, the two of them would face the outcome of being chased out of the Qinyin Empire.
They couldn't use their own soldiers to suppress it, right? If that was the case, why did they let Rex feign civility in Holy Rock City?
Salin knew the key, so he made it clean. Not only did he kill Mephistos, he also summoned the Winged Skeleton and extracted his soul. No one knew what had happened. The corpse he left behind would be on the Alchemy City's tab in the future.
Salin thought. There were still three towns. If he collected all of them, there would be a million.
Originally, he only planned to take one group of troops so that he wouldn't lose too many when attacking the Alchemy City nest. The Lightning Warriors were strong, but Salin couldn't control them all the time. When he was in danger, he couldn't command the battle.
Now, it seemed that the Golden Plains controlled several of these four towns. Salin could only test them one by one. Otherwise, it would be troublesome when Rex needed troops later.
He could pretend to kill Mephistos, but if he killed everyone, Salin wouldn't be able to get away.
As a last resort, Salin summoned Neris.
The Ultimate Transformation Technique could only fool people for a while. It was different from the Water Puppet's transformation. The Water Puppet could imitate a person's shape and personality based on their soul.
Salin had the same experience in the other three towns. He was careful and only killed the general of the other town. Then, he took the troops of two towns back to Sephiroth's territory.
Salin's floating city carried more than four hundred thousand troops, but it didn't seem crowded at all. It was just that it took a day to mobilize these troops. And that was because he had a large number of Necromancers who used magic to transport these troops to the floating city.
It was impossible to build the capital in one day. When Salin returned, General Town's army was still on the floating city. When attacking a Magician's city, all the troops had to change their equipment.
This would take up a lot of time. No matter how elite an army was, they would not be able to change all their equipment in a short period of time.
If Salin hadn't thought of this day long ago and prepared a lot of magic armor, this matter would be delayed for a few months.
The leaders of the troops of the two towns were actually not as simple as two generals. Before Salin left, he had tricked the army's command group into the commander's tent and ambushed and killed them all. He had a level-thirteen expert in charge, so he didn't run into any trouble.
The entire command system had actually been changed to demons.
Fortunately, these demons were also part of the Temple Army and were well-trained. It was not a problem for them to lead Qin Yin's elite troops. Especially since these evil demons were already familiar with Salin's magic armor, it was easy for them to arrange for the soldiers to undergo assault training.
After another three days, when Salin estimated that the purple angel could no longer hold on, he took the floating city to the Alchemy City's base according to the coordinates given by Raphael.
Raphael brought Salin and the others to the towering mountain peak. Salin's Floating City pressed down forcefully, and a metal path extended from the Floating City, directly into the mountain peak.
The entire mountain shook. On the floating city, Salin released Thunderous Burst, and all the sound transmission magic arrays in the mountain lost their effectiveness.
The insect angel army surged in. Salin had brought nearly a hundred thousand insect angels with him this time.
After the insect angels was the Demon Army mixed with Qin Yin's elite troops. Salin's various warriors swarmed in and occupied the heart of the mountain. After these warriors entered, some Mages entered and immediately provided coordinates to the Controllers on the floating city.
Countless spells poured down, all bypassing the soldiers and attacking inside Boder's Gate.
Boder's Gate was heavily guarded. A group of Magic Shooters was stationed in front of the gate. These Magic Shooters did not know who the enemy was before they were blasted into elemental powder by the Controllers' spells. With the guidance of the Mages, the Controllers on the floating city accurately hit each enemy.
The outer perimeter of Boder's Gate was immediately lost.
Raphael was the first to rush into Boder's Gate. Salin and Sephiroth followed behind the insect angel warriors. Sephiroth put on the armor Salin made for him and held a purple-red longsword in his hand, looking murderous.
But after he rushed into Boder's Gate, he only saw corpses on the ground. Raphael's attack power was too strong. After she rushed into Boder's Gate, she found that the rules that restricted her power on the Myers Continent were no longer there. She directly unlocked the seal and raised her strength to level thirteen.
A level-thirteen Battle Angel against these Mages guarding the gate was simply a one-sided slaughter.
Sephiroth was a little disappointed. He had never experienced such a battle. Salin smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is normal. When the Myers Continent advances another rank, our soldiers won't be used for this."
"Of course it's used to conquer the plane. The gods will inevitably descend, and it will be difficult for us to be enemies in the future, at least not in the next thousand years." Salin sighed.
Sephiroth followed the army forward in silence. Boder's Gate isolated the power of the floating city, but it couldn't close the spatial door. The power of the floating city locked the elements tightly. This gate became the best way for the army to enter.
Raphael was the vanguard, killing all the way forward. This was an independent space, not a half plane. It was even smaller than a half plane, but there were mountains and rivers, just no stars.
Although the space connected by Boder's Gate was small, each had an environment suitable for humans to live in. This was the powerful equipment of the Second Dynasty, and it could be deployed at any time.
The Mages of Alchemy City couldn't completely use this equipment, or else they could have brought all the Mages to attack Metatlin City.
Salin naturally understood that he could only use all the power of Boder's Gate after the continent advanced again. Now he had to take advantage of the fact that Alchemy City couldn't completely possess this equipment to take over Boder's Gate.
When the power of the Myers Continent fell to the bottom, although Alchemy City had Boder's Gate, it couldn't be opened.
Now the power of the Myers Continent could accommodate level ten to twelve beings. When Boder's Gate was opened, Alchemy City would move all the important things in, and the Elemental Hand would have complete control of Boder's Gate.
That was why when Salin attacked Alchemy City, Alchemy City was moving equipment, and the things in the warehouse weren't the most important. That was why the Elemental Hand didn't risk their lives.
They gave up on Alchemy City and entered Boder's Gate because Boder's Gate was active and could appear anywhere.
If someone from the Elemental Hand entered Metatlin City and took out Boder's Gate, they could bypass the defense of Sequence Dante and directly enter the temple.
The premise was that Myers Continent advanced again, and Alchemy City had at least six Mages above level 13.
This Boder's Gate was more effective than Salin's floating city. The floating city consumed a lot of energy, and even with the Magic Furnace, Salin wouldn't let it fly for a long time. Boder's Gate itself was equivalent to a magic amplification device.
The problem was that this magic amplification device could only be activated by someone above level 13.
Salin couldn't wait any longer. If he waited any longer, the Elemental Hand would completely develop, and by then, it would be too late to cry.
Inside Boder's Gate, the space was less than five thousand meters high. Huge crystals were embedded in the ceiling, looking like stars, but also like the sun and moon. These crystals flowed in the sky without a fixed position, but they added endless power to Boder's Gate.
This was something more advanced than the Magic Furnace. It was a product created by astrologers and Mages. After the Second Dynasty, it went extinct, and no one could replicate it.
Salin saw the Mage's Castle, which was formed by countless Magic Towers.
Salin didn't feel fear, but was very happy.
"Prince, let's go together," Salin said. He called Raphael to protect him and rushed towards the Mage's Castle.
This Mage's Castle wasn't built by the people of Alchemy City, but a relic of the Second Dynasty. No wonder the Elemental Hand of Alchemy City was willing to abandon Alchemy City and not fight the bone dragon.
With this Mage's Castle, the value of Alchemy City would be too low.
Sephiroth was a little worried, but he knew that Salin cherished his life very much. Since Salin dared to rush forward, it meant that he was very confident.
Of course, Salin was confident again. The Elemental Hand couldn't have a Level-13 Mage at the moment. There was too little time, and they couldn't use the Mage's Castle to level up.
His teacher was an anomaly. Even if there were lucky people who had recently advanced to Level-13, there wouldn't be more than two. After doing some calculations, Salin felt that he could at least escape unscathed. All the equipment he had was usable, so what was there to be afraid of?
Salin followed Raphael, and under the protection of a hundred metal angels, they rushed towards the Mage's Castle that was formed by Magic Towers.
