Tactics never needed to be complicated. The simpler a tactic was, the more effective it would be. Tactics in novels and movies that were so complicated that they required lists to be memorized would most likely die in unexpected accidents along the way.
When the witches descended from the sky, it was also time for the three-man team to forcefully ambush them. The May Rain squadron was stuck in a dilemma.
"Should we deal with the aerial attack? Or should we deal with the ground attack? "
This was a simple pincer attack. Since Rorschach had prepared at the right time, he had the initiative.
Isabella had also perfectly executed her previous mission of silence. Now, she had even sent out a single person to bombard the enemy with heavy firepower. This made the aerial attack even more threatening than the ground attack.
The perfect timing allowed this simple and straightforward tactic to become unusually deadly.
"… We need to defend against all of them!"
Miranda Sophie stepped forward as the leader of the May Rain squadron.
Her magical armor swiftly opened up and transformed into a spellcasting platform.
The Legend-ranked archmage's magical staff floated above her head as she closed her eyes and muttered an incantation. She completely ignored the aerial attack right in front of her and instantly entered a focused spellcasting state.
"Activate the first to seventh spell formations. Amplify."
The spell formations that had been set up long ago with her at the center activated. Numerous magic stones and magical crystals flashed with light as numerous gigantic purple magic missiles began to take shape.
The next instant, she opened her eyes, causing purple lightning to explode within them. Her eyeshadow, which had been drawn with a special ink, also started glowing with lightning.
"Light of the Arcane Arts, Starfall!"
The archmage waved both her hands as lightning intertwined on her magical staff. Then, her magical staff suddenly exploded into the sky. When the expensive magical staff completely transformed into shards filled with magic energy, arcane energy spread from the ground to the top. A purple net began to weave through the sky and finally ignited the entire world.
Thousands of purple lightning bolts weaved together into an arcane net. When the purple meteors created by the net fell down, the might of this net was enough to make one think of the sky collapsing and the earth shattering.
"Activate the eighth to twelfth energy storage spell formations. Spell model — Lava Wall."
The final mage of the May Rain squadron, Elaine E. Dacro, a level 4 fire mage, also stepped forward.
She put her palms together and spread out her left hand. Then, she casually swiped her slender middle finger across her palm and pulled. Along with a frightening mana fluctuation, a similar lava wall slowly rose.
She was surrounded by a flaming coat of feathers. Her magic robe had already turned to ash in the wind. She didn't turn around and directly activated all the remaining energy storage magic circles. She borrowed a huge amount of mana reserves and pulled up burning obstacles on the ground as she charged forward.
This was not the end.
Elaine continued to draw a circle in her palm, and the wall of flames suddenly began to extend in two directions, forcibly encircling the charging trio.
In the sky, the arcane stars were about to fall. This wall of flames and smoke created by the murky lava blocked off all escape routes.
Never challenge a well-prepared Great Mage in a Mage's territory. The scene before his eyes undoubtedly proved this point.
From the start of the battle until now, the Spell Formation that had been storing energy for half a second had stored enough mana and Spell Modeling. After the spellcaster paid the price regardless of the cost, two large-scale spells were instantly summoned, forming a Spell Combo that represented death.
"Stand behind me!"
Matt's angry roar was still ringing in everyone's ears. His wall-like giant shield had been activated once again. Combined with the force field outside, a hexagonal ice crystal shield covered everything. The steel giant raised his shield and truly transformed into an eternal fortress.
* Boom! *
* Boom! *
* Boom! *
The situation on the battlefield changed several times in an instant. Nobody expected the May Rain squadron to launch an aerial attack with their magical traps.
Even when danger loomed over them, they still unhesitatingly chose to bombard their enemies head-on.
It should be said that as expected of the Mayflower Rain squadron, as expected of the believers of cannon fire tactics. Even at the most dangerous moment, they still chose to use the tactic they were best at. Perhaps for them, destroying the enemy was their only defense.
But at this moment, when Miranda and Elaine were both in a state of exhaustion after forcefully exploding with power, the aerial attack was right in front of them. It seemed like the two of them would die.
And the reason why they were able to use their full power without hesitation was naturally because …
"The Book of Ten Thousand Spells has been activated. Summoning a designated magical puppet — Nini."
Ariel floated in midair as her magical tome flapped in the wind. When she locked onto one of the pages, a pale shadow materialized.
This shadow was a short silver elf girl who resembled a goblin. She fiercely waved a magic staff that was even larger than her own, which emanated the mysteries of ice.
The next instant, the shadow of the War Goddess appeared above May Rain's head, wielding a gigantic shield of ice.
"Designated spell: War Goddess Evelyn's Ice Protection."
The War Goddess of Ice violently clashed with the descending inferno. Smoke and explosions shook the entire mountain. Nobody expected that both sides would simultaneously bombard each other's main forces.
Fire and ice continuously clashed. The invaluable explosives rapidly transformed into real fireworks. Piercing, exploding, wild laughter, and flames swept through the entire mountain.
But when the explosions started to dissipate, everyone simultaneously inhaled a breath of cold air.
The shadow of the War Goddess had already shrunk to less than one-tenth of her original size. However, her sturdy shield was still in perfect condition, and the May Rain squadron was completely unharmed.
No, they weren't completely unharmed.
The silver elf girl Nini, who had summoned this powerful spell, had already turned into a shadow and started to dissipate. Naturally, the powerful defensive spell also disappeared with her.
Not only that, but the page of the Book of Ten Thousand Spells that depicted the girl's appearance had also gradually turned into an empty white page.
The spectators outside the arena were discussing spiritedly. They had already noticed that the summoned girl's appearance was exactly the same as the ice mage who had just left the arena. The camera also very respectfully cut to May Rain's ice mage Nini, who was watching the battle with a face full of anxiety.
As the shadow completely disappeared, Nini actually revealed an expression of extreme pain. She bent over, and if her companions hadn't helped her in time, she would have collapsed on the spot.
On the other side, May Rain's Falling Stars had also ended. Under the protection of the Avalanche Crusher's shield, Matt's steel giant still hadn't fallen.
However, just because the shield was fine didn't mean that the person was fine.
The Totemic Warrior was smoking from head to toe. The parts that kept popping out were probably all over the place.
The result of the collision seemed to be unharmed, but in reality, both sides had paid an extremely heavy price.
