【First Update】
The prisoners in Black Prison City swarmed out of the city. The first problem they faced was not how to escape, but how to eat. The prison guards took away all the food that could be eaten. It didn't matter if the prisoners wanted to leave immediately or stay on the island, they couldn't not eat.
The food in Black Prison was not good. Other than a few powerful prisoners, most people did not have enough to eat.
A portion of the prisoners also knew that without these bullies to bring them away, it was almost impossible for them to leave Black Prison Island. These people had long given up on any thoughts of survival. Seeing the twelve prisoner leaders bring their own people to the east, the prisoners did not continue to fight, but instead gathered together to discuss what to do.
Salin's troops headed west, bypassing Black Prison City. Salin turned his head to see the changes in Black Prison City. He sneered and increased his speed.
If Salin's army reached Black Prison City at this time, they would definitely clash with the prisoners.
His calculations were not bad, but it was a pity that he had the Eye of the Soul. There were no mountains near Black Prison City, so he would not fall for this trick.
The real battle only began when they were within a hundred miles of Black Prison Volcano.
Here, Black Prison Island had deployed a large number of soldiers, and they were defending according to the terrain.
These prison guards did not care about life and death. Moreover, the armor of the prison guards had a certain protection against the Drum of Fear. Raphael's beating of the Drum of Fear could only reduce the fighting strength of the prison guards, but it did not cause the enemy's formation to collapse like in other cities.
The War Puppets swarmed forward, attacking the fort guarded by the prison guards in the narrow mountain path.
The strength of the War Puppets was average, but the most unbearable was their super strong defense and continuous fighting strength. These puppets approached at the fastest speed. The crossbow bolts and divine arts from the fort did not cause much damage to the puppet army.
The attacks of the puppet army also made people speechless. These puppets had their own tasks. The puppets at the front threw iron pellets and cleared the soldiers on the walls of the fort. These pellets bounced above the fort, and every one of them was covered with sharp thorns. The bouncing of the pellets was related to the earth magic formation on the pellets, and the thorns would only pierce the enemy when they touched them.
Raphael was also impatient to command the army at this time. The army behind him slowly changed their formation, spreading out from both sides and surrounding Black Prison Volcano.
If the Black Hell Volcano erupted now, Salin would suffer heavy losses.
How could Salin and Raphael think of such a problem? When they came, they had already prepared for the worst. Even if the entire army was destroyed, there was nothing they could do about it. The entire Black Prison Volcano was over a thousand meters high and the slope was extremely gentle. There were countless divine rune formations set up around it.
On the map, Salin could see over 6000 divine runic arrays. In addition to the temporary ones that were set up every day and those that couldn't be seen from the edge of the volcano, it was likely that there were over 10,000 divine runic arrays here.
If there were no soldiers guarding the area, Salin would have led his followers to attack. However, there were at least two hundred thousand enemies in the mountainous area. Salin had to cut off their wings before he could make his move.
Do not underestimate these small fries. Whether it was magic or divine arts, there were ways to concentrate everyone's power to attack together.
Although it would be difficult, this was the center of Black Prison, so there must have been similar arrangements and methods.
The ferocity of the Church came from their numbers. If they had a leader to gather the followers, it would be difficult to deal with them. In the end, the reason why Sacred City was defeated was because there was no one to take the lead and the people's morale was low. Salin conquered more than half of the Tanggulas Empire before he made his move. This was to put pressure on the people of Sacred City.
Salin did it very cleverly and naturally.
The battle for more than a year had left a shadow in the hearts of the people of Holy Church. They thought that the floating city was invincible.
It was indeed difficult for Sacred City to defend against the attacks of the floating city. However, if millions of followers gathered and fought with all their might, Salin didn't know how long it would take for him to take down Sacred City, and he also didn't know how many soldiers he would lose.
At that time, Salin could only send the most powerful warriors and mages, including himself, to attack.
There were many level 10 warriors in Sacred City. With the divine runic arrays and the ruins left by the gods, how could they not have the power to fight back?
Salin's actions, and the entire war, were like a chess game that had been set up.
He slowly clenched his fist. When he punched out, the enemies would be so terrified that they only wanted to run for their lives.
Black Prison Island was different. Not only did it have more powerful warriors, but it also had the Warden. Salin wasn't sure about the level of the Warden, but seeing that the Chief Judge didn't dare to disobey the Warden, he knew that the Warden had been suppressing others by at least one level.
Now, Salin wanted to force the Warden to come out and engage in a decisive battle.
His Insect Angel Legion didn't fly up. Instead, it mixed with the other legions and advanced through the small paths in the mountains. A light muffled sound came from the Black Prison Volcano. Both Salin's army and the troops of Black Prison Island stopped after hearing this muffled sound.
The ground shook. It seemed like the volcano on Black Prison Island was about to erupt.
All the fortresses along the way lit up with godly lights. Salin saw this, and the flames of war ignited in his mind. There was indeed someone living in this volcano, and it was none other than the Warden!
"Tell them to retreat!"
Salin's Eyes of Soul saw that the volcano didn't only spit out volcanic ash with sparks, but also violent energy. This energy was mixed and impure. There were all kinds of elemental powers, and he couldn't tell the trajectory.
With such a huge formation at the mouth of a volcano, even a dormant volcano would come back to life.
Gusin, who was leading the Puppet Legion, waved his flag and turned in another direction according to plan. Salin didn't even want to lose these puppets. After all, the price of a puppet was enough to buy a few sets of magic armor.
As for the remaining troops, the Demon Legion wore the Demon God Corrosive Body Armor that could fly, and they were the first to leave the attack line. The Demon God Corrosive Body Armor was originally designed for normal battle formations. It was difficult to defend against natural volcanic eruptions.
The Insect Angel Legion was the second to retreat. The Insect Angel Armor could be trusted, but it was a piece of equipment with high consumption. Salin wasn't that wasteful.
Next was the Puppet Legion. These puppets didn't fly. Instead, they ran in the mountains. Their speed suddenly increased to the point that even level three warhorses couldn't catch up.
Rumble!
The volcano suddenly erupted. Black and red smoke rose into the sky. Salin's army moved in the opposite direction in an orderly manner.
Salin knew that this wasn't some Divine Art. The people in the volcano were coming out.
Salin was shocked by the place where the Warden lived. He had once entered the crack in the ground and the lava lake. The temperature was terrifyingly high. Salin didn't dare to stay there for too long.
The Warden treated the volcano as his home. Obviously, he still trained in the area where the lava was active.
"Salin!" The mouth of the volcano was like a huge trumpet. It sent out this voice. Even the clouds in the sky formed a huge funnel shape and started spinning crazily.
Salin smiled and said to the people beside him, "So the Warden knows me. Seems like I'm famous."
Of course he was famous. Which professional on the entire continent didn't know Salin? Metatlin. But with his joke, Zola and the others weren't so nervous anymore.
Only Raphael said to Salin with a serious expression, "Sir, the laws of the dimension have loosened …"
"That's good. If they don't, I won't be able to deal with him!" Salin also felt the loosening of the laws. The sealing power in his body was quickly disintegrating. This kind of sealing skill would automatically dissolve as long as the laws allowed it. There wouldn't be the awkward situation of sealing oneself and not being able to recover.
"Master!" Behind Salin, the three artifact spirits appeared at the same time. Everyone thought that the God of the Weave was in the City of Nature. There had been a few fierce battles, and when people had reached Salin, he hadn't appeared.
"Very good. In a while, attack whoever my lightning icicles attack," Salin instructed.
"Yes, Master." The three artifact spirits answered at the same time, as if they were the same person.
Salin's army quickly retreated. The prison guards didn't dare to stay here. The volcano was about to erupt because the Warden had lost control of his power. Otherwise, the Black Hell Volcano wouldn't erupt even after tens of thousands of years.
As a result, a strange scene appeared around the Black Hell Volcano. Both sides had many troops mixed together and were escaping for their lives. Other than Salin's flying troops, the other soldiers had to leave as fast as possible, or else they would be swallowed by the volcano.
Salin flew high up. He had thought about using a rank 18 scroll in the mouth of the volcano, but if he couldn't lock onto the enemy, the scroll might not be able to kill the Warden.
The Warden lived in a volcano, so an eruption definitely wouldn't be able to harm him.
Salin didn't expect the Warden to be accidentally injured. Even he, who was now rank 13, wouldn't be easily injured in the lava.
Surrounding Salin were metal angels. High up in the sky, the angels didn't flap their wings and just floated quietly, letting the wind blow against them.
"Salin, you've come at the right time. I heard that you have the power of lightning. Let's see if your lightning is stronger, or if my Hellfire is stronger!" The voice came from the mouth of the volcano, as if separated by the thick earth.
Salin frowned. Oh no, this person wasn't a believer, and probably didn't have much respect for the gods. He was a fanatic who worshipped power.
He knew that Salin had arrived just in time for the Warden's eruption of power. The Warden simply took advantage of the loosening of the continent's laws to explode with all his power, letting the volcano resurrect and not caring about the life and death of the prison guards.
He really didn't come at the right time. If he had come earlier, he wouldn't have been so passive.
Salin looked at the speed of his army's retreat. He knew that the flying army wouldn't have a problem, but those who couldn't fly would be trapped here, or directly burned to death.
