A sneak attack?
The girls were taken aback when they saw this scene. But then, a series of magical radiances erupted from their bodies. At this moment, these girls who looked like university students who wanted to go on an outing a moment ago finally showed their true colors as the core elite forces of the White Tower of Heaven, the Country of Magi.
In less than a second, they had transformed from defenseless and weak girls to fully armed mobile fortresses.
But at that moment, the figure had already arrived in front of Iona and swung its sword.
"Swish —"
The hexagonal Klein Force Field instantly spread out and blocked the sneak attacker's first attack. This obviously surprised the sneak attacker. Even Colette, who was standing next to him, raised her eyebrows curiously.
However, in the next moment, Iona suddenly waved her hand and everyone saw a huge cylindrical object suddenly appear beside her. It whizzed toward the ambusher.
The sneak attacker did not expect Iona to have this kind of ability. Although it quickly chose to retreat when Iona made her move, it was still a step too late. The huge cannon barrel directly hit the sneak attacker, then pushed it forward and directly pressed it against the mountain wall next to it.
Iona took a few steps forward and raised her head to look at the ambusher, who was pinned against the wall by the barrel of the cannon. It was wearing a tight black suit and a mask, and it was holding a short sword in its hand. When it saw Iona walking towards it, the sneak attacker sneered. Then, it raised its hand ….
"Boom!!"
A scorching laser instantly erupted from the cannon barrel and enveloped the sneak attacker in the blink of an eye. The dazzling flash enveloped everything for a moment, turning everything around it pure white. When the light dissipated, there was no trace left on the mountain wall except for a big hole.
"Hiss …."
Seeing this scene, the young girls couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. They could sense how terrifying the torrent of energy just now was. Just the power of this attack was already comparable to the level-8 evocation spell — Blazing Sun!
And this was just a casual attack from the girl in front of them!
What kind of monsters were there in the Tendo Temple?!
"Please board the ship and get ready to depart."
However, Iona had no choice but to reply as if she had just killed a mosquito. She then let everyone enter the spaceship. Soon after, the metal spaceship took off again, quickly turning invisible as it flew towards the Tendo Temple.
"Amazing …"
After Iona left, the girls who were standing there in a daze finally came to their senses and couldn't help but gather together to whisper.
"Do you know what attack she used just now? It looks like a kind of summoning. I can sense spatial fluctuations …. "
"It should be some kind of teleportation … but why was there no sign of it? Logically speaking, shouldn't there be spatial fluctuations during teleportation? "
"I'm more interested in that ray. It's even more powerful than the Sun Flare Blast, but I can't feel the activity of the Mana elements at all. What kind of form does that ray exist in, and how was it released?"
"I'm more concerned about how she found out there was someone there. You know, I used Detect Invisibility, but I didn't notice anyone following us!"
Although they were all young and beautiful girls, they were also mages. At this moment, their curiosity as mages instantly surpassed their previous nervousness. They immediately gathered together and discussed.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Colette nodded in satisfaction. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a trace of a smile. This was what mages were like. No matter how naive and romantic they appeared to be, they never gave up on exploring, which was what mages needed the most.
But that girl just now ….
Colette couldn't help but frown when she recalled the scene where the sneak attacker's attack was blocked. These children were still too young. They didn't notice the main point at all. Colette was certain that the assailant had come prepared. His weapon might have been specially designed to break through magical defenses, or even erase all kinds of supernatural powers.
Colette had lived for so many years, and she had seen countless assassinations against mages. In fact, if her guess was correct, then the mysterious assassin just now might have succeeded in one blow.
But he failed.
Colette could see the reason very clearly.
The moment the assassin made his move, Colette found that the space in front of Iona had suddenly reorganized itself in a very special form that she had never seen before. This directly caused the assassin's attack to be "diverted" into the space, so it did not have any effect at all!
This was a model that was completely different from the current spatial theory of mages!
It was a rather ingenious design, but it also looked very contradictory!
How interesting ….
Thinking of this, Colette couldn't help but stick out her tongue and lick her lips. She had lived for 1,500 years, which was long enough for a living being. The only thing that kept her going now was the pursuit of knowledge and mysteries in this world. It was precisely because of this that she volunteered to be the "leader" and lead the visiting group to the Tendo Temple. She wanted to find the secrets she was looking for there that could be used for research.
Now it seemed that she had made the right choice.
Before she even set foot on the land of the Tendo Temple, Colette had already found what she wanted to see. A completely unfamiliar, but unusually exquisite, and memorable spatial model.
And this metal battleship ….
Colette stretched out her hand and placed it on the wall in front of her. It was unexpectedly cold, but there was no vibration. It was very stable. Colette could feel a huge amount of energy running steadily in the battleship. It was a structure completely different from the magic she was familiar with.
A completely different civilization ….
Completely unfamiliar knowledge ….
This was what she had hoped for, and it was also the only motivation for Colette to continue living. There were countless mysteries in this world, but for her, many of them were no longer secrets.
And this was just the beginning ….
Thinking of this, the corners of Colette's mouth curled up slightly, forming a smile.
It seemed that she had made the right choice to come here this time.
She wondered what good things were waiting for her in the Heavenly Dao Palace.
At this moment, Colette could not wait any longer.
