In just six minutes, the hall of the Magic Association's Blue Bay branch had fallen. The monsters had firmly occupied the hole in the wall, and reinforcements were pouring in from the hole. After a fierce battle, the door finally fell into the monsters' hands.
There were more than ten casualties among the adventurers, and seven mages had also died in battle.
D 'Edarion gathered the rest of the men and retreated to the second floor. He guarded the entrance of the stairs and continued to wait for rescue. The current situation had reached a critical point. The remaining 20 people were exhausted physically and mentally. No one knew when this string would break.
D 'Adrion said to Wiesenhair, "If you still don't see the rescue spaceship in five minutes, you should leave first."
Wiesenhair shook his head. "I don't have enough magic power to teleport. It's just my life. I can afford it."
"It's all my fault." D 'Adrion actually said such words of self-blame. It was obvious that he had also lost hope in the future.
"No, I should be the one thanking you. When disaster strikes, no one can remain unscathed. I haven't left the Mage Tower for more than thirty years. If you hadn't come looking for me, I wouldn't have known that the situation outside was so dire. Compared to continuing my research in the Mage Tower, I'd rather die in battle like a warrior."
"We won't die, at least not today." The female Magician who was in charge of communication suddenly spoke up. She pointed at a large hole in the sky above them. Looking from there, they could see a black dot in the sky in the southwest direction, rushing toward them at high speed.
"That's the alchemy airship that you mentioned, sir." The female magician paused. "I just don't understand. How can we detect magic waves from it?"
"Someone had helped to modify the alchemy airship. It has now become an alchemy and magic hybrid airship."
At this moment, D 'Addarion could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He didn't need to say anything. After seeing the hope of escape, everyone's spirit was lifted. They desperately resisted the monsters that were coming from all directions.
The darkest time had passed. No one wanted to fall before dawn.
However, the monsters seemed to have realized something. Their attacks became more and more violent. The battle gradually turned into a collision of flesh and blood.
In the end, only eight people successfully boarded the alchemy airship. More than half of the original crew had been lost.
D 'Addarion was the last to board the ship. The Dwarf Prince, Maladona, was commanding the sailors on the ship to deal with several flying monsters. Perhaps the only advantage for the humans in this sudden full-scale invasion was that there were very few flying monsters. Because of the special geographical location of the fissure, almost all the monsters that could successfully reach the Dawn Continent were crawling monsters. Therefore, the humans still firmly occupied the airspace even though they had lost control of the land.
This was also the reason why Maledona dared to rely on his alchemy airship to go deep into the enemy's territory.
"The president of the Magic Association!!! Alive!!! "The Dwarf Prince was excited." Can you sign on my ship? In this way, I can double the price when I sell tickets in the future. Oh, no, at least triple it. "
D 'Addario nodded, raised his hand, and used his staff to control the fire magic to leave his initials on the side of the ship.
"Cool!" Maledona rubbed his hands excitedly. Perhaps it was the unique optimism of the dwarfs, he could still entertain himself even in such a harsh environment. "I'll send you to the nearest town, or drive a little further. That way, you'll be safer. "
The Dwarf Prince could not help but boast again. "My alchemy airship is the pinnacle of the human race's patron saint. It can float in the sky for ten days to half a month. Those monsters can only eat our dust. It's even more useful when picking up girls. Last time when I was in Raphanus Harbor …"
D 'Addario patiently listened to the dwarf's nagging and said politely, "Captain Maradona, can you give me a little time?"
"Of course." The Dwarf Prince snapped his fingers. "Feel free to tell me anything." After that, he went to the other side to command the airship. However, this guy stopped after a few steps and pretended to point at the ship. In fact, he pricked up his ears to eavesdrop on the situation here.
D 'Addario did not care. The dwarf did not mean any harm. He just wanted to satisfy his curiosity. The president of the Magic Association found the female sorcerer who was treating the wound on the other side. "Any news from Lilith?"
The latter stood up and saluted. The dwarf who was stitching next to her was so angry that he screamed.
"The cracking work is going well. As you said, this teleportation circle is not complicated. So far, we can determine a general direction. However, if we want to accurately locate it within a hundred miles, it will take another half a day."
D 'Addarion fell into deep thought after hearing this.
"What's wrong?"
After dealing with Merlin, I've been thinking about his behavior pattern. On the surface, he looks like a lunatic and an opportunist, but it turns out that everything he does has a meaning behind it. When he's not strong enough, he likes to take advantage of the situation to break through. For example, this time, he used us to deal with the pursuit of those things, so … I'm a little suspicious now. This time, he also has an ulterior motive, but no matter what, we have to find him first. He must be hiding something about the Apotheosis Ceremony. At this juncture, we have to protect His Holiness' safety first. "
"Are you going to find the future patron saint of the human race?" Maradona's ears pricked up like a rabbit's. Finally, he could not help but interject, "I'll send you there! We've been through life and death together in the past. " The dwarf patted his chest. "It's a pity that he didn't use his real identity last time. I haven't asked him to sign for me yet."
"That area is a little far from here. With the speed of the alchemy airship, it will take us half a day to get there," the female sorcerer suggested. "Let's find a teleportation circle nearby."
"You're talking about an ordinary alchemy airship, not my Lucky Goddess," Maradona whistled and said proudly. Maledona whistled and said proudly, "Don't underestimate my lover. She has undergone no less than 20 modifications. I don't spend much of the money I earned in my life. Almost all of it is spent on her. Now, she's at least twice as fast as her peers. Coupled with the super low consumption, I'm planning to drive her around the world."
"In that case, we can also take advantage of this time to restore some magic power," D 'Addario said decisively. "Then I'll have to trouble you, Captain Maradona."
"Not at all, not at all," the latter said with a smile.
Who was it that said that the blood of the dwarves flowed in the blood of adventurers? Although D 'Addario repeatedly stressed the danger of this trip, it seemed that Maradona's words went in one ear and out the other. The dwarf captain asked excitedly, "Is this considered as me participating in history now?! Is the life and death of the world entrusted to us?! "
"Yes, if we can survive this crisis, your name will definitely appear in all history books," D 'Addario affirmed.
