Hikari was the only one on the first airship. Most of the other wizards were staying in their own rooms. It seemed like they had suffered too much during the last battle.
Angele could feel the chilling wind blowing at his face as he approached the airship.
"I've tested the defense. I'm going to activate the defense rune and let them in. Be careful, everyone, "Hikari suddenly shouted and squeezed the crystal rune in his right hand.
Angele returned to his airship.
Angele patted Night Sparrow's head and stood by the railing, looking down.
Angele stood on the deck and watched the man walk into the cabin and disappear into the darkness.
The deck was empty, not a single person was there.
The two Cloud Bees couldn't stop their momentum in time. They crashed into the deck of the ship and rolled for a distance.
The atmosphere was getting heavier.
* * *
"I'll do it!" A muscular wizard from the first airship stepped forward. He was holding a large black longbow in his hand.
In his field of vision, rows of data kept changing under the two Cloud Bees that were attacking him.
The surface of the three ships seemed to have lost its luster, and their original colors dimmed.
"Alright, let's get ready." Angele stood up. "I'll be leaving now." He pushed the chair away and left the room.
"I'm not sure how many of us will make it to the central continent alive," Hikari spoke in a light tone.
'Cloud Bees: Estimated data is as follows.'
"How long until we reach the nest of the Cloud Bees?" Angele questioned in a light tone.
Before anyone could react, they saw a flash of red and yellow light, and the two Magi were sent flying. They rolled on the deck and hit the side of the ship. Then, they lay on the deck, motionless.
* CHI *
Zero's voice echoed in Angele's ears. He relaxed a bit.
Angele's expression changed after hearing the words. He turned his head around and looked at the others. The two Cloud Bees had already broken free from the translucent net and were flying above the deck.
A group of white robes gathered on the bow of the first airship. They were staring at the two white dots flying in front of the airship anxiously.
As they got closer, the two white dots finally revealed themselves.
"You're in trouble. I heard from Perry that you're an expert in magic circles." Angele turned his head to the side and spoke in a low voice. "The array glyphs on the ship …"
On Angele's own ship, Perry and the other two changed their attitude toward Angele. There was a faint hint of flattery, while the others were indifferent.
"No, the Cloud Bees won't let go of anything that flies over them. As long as they can eat it, they won't give up." Hikari shook her head.
"Mentality of at least 24 …" Angele finally understood why there were so many wizards in the team, but there were so many casualties before they reached the central continent. This terrifying and troublesome creature was equivalent to a flying Grand Knight with a tortoise shell all over its body. It had an extremely strong physique and extreme resistance, and it also had very troublesome long-range attacks.
"Yes."
"About half a month."
"His Talent Field was destroyed within seconds. That kind of attack …" A female wizard's face turned pale. "Arian's Talent Field is even stronger than mine …"
"Forget it. I'll think about it later." Angele's brow furrowed.
Although he was confident in his own abilities, he had never seen the Cloud Bees before. He was not sure how strong they were, but he was a bit worried.
"Sure."
* WHOOSH *
"Also, the bottom cabins of the three airships are filled with large amounts of magic stones. The defensive and offensive runes are engraved in the bottom cabins. It's fine if there are advanced magic circle masters here, but do you think there are advanced magic circle masters among the wizards who are willing to join us?" Angele sighed.
"It's hard to say. We'll need to do some tests first." Angele turned around. "But I think you shouldn't put too much hope into it." Angele's expression turned serious.
Inside the room, the oil lamp on the wooden table was swaying slightly, but no one said a word.
The two wizards' bodies were covered with a thick layer of white frost. They were not breathing and there were two stingers in their chests.
Angele did not think too much about it. Perry and the other wizards were just average wizards after what they did that day. On the other hand, Baron seemed to be getting along well with the black-robed wizard who had joined him in a pincer attack.
Angele stood on the side and watched quietly. Blue light dots were flashing in front of his eyes.
Blue light dots were flashing in the dark forest, but Angele had no idea what kind of plants or animals they were.
With the passage of time, everyone's expressions changed.
'So, these three airships won't be destroyed. They're sturdy, but I can't engrave strong magic circles on them.'
* DANG DANG *
The two white dots seemed to have sensed the change and immediately stopped circling around. Suddenly, they rushed in a straight line towards the group of people standing at the bow of the ship.
Angele noticed that there was a thin layer of white light around their bodies, protecting them from any danger.
"Alright, I'll take some rest." Baron turned around and walked to the cabin.
A white glow appeared on the surface of the crystal.
"The Cloud Bees have high Stamina and resistance, and they're good at fighting. I'm afraid that many people will die if we're not careful, "Angele spoke in a light tone.
Angele stood in front of the group with a serious expression on his face. The rest of the leaders stood slightly behind him. No one spoke, and the atmosphere was getting tense.
The arrow hit one of the Cloud Bees and exploded. The arrow turned into a sticky, translucent web, trapping the two Cloud Bees inside.
The two bees were enlarged. Their bodies were white and there were circles of blue stripes on their abdomens. They were about the same height as a human. The bees were making some strange noises when they were flying. Their brown compound eyes reflected the wizards on the airships.
The Cloud Bees were blown away by Baron and Reyline every time they tried to attack the airships. However, they were not injured at all.
He held the bow horizontally and pulled the string hard. With a squeak, the longbow was fully drawn, and a transparent arrow was placed on it.
He stood quietly at the side of the ship. Half an hour later, a figure slowly walked out from the cabin behind him.
* BAM *
A pair of siblings approached Angele and asked about the situation, but nothing else was heard from them.
"We can't let the airships get damaged. That's the most important thing," Baron said. "Among all of us, only a few of us are the strongest. When the time comes, we will take the initiative to try and see how the Cloud Bees are doing."
Angele thought for a while.
"Don't count on me. You know the material of this airship. The pine wood is tough, heavy, and hard. However, the conductivity of the wood is not good. I can't do anything about it. The best magic circle is useless without a medium, "the man responded in a low voice. The man answered in a low voice. He was the one who killed Baron with Angele the other day. He was also the one who contacted Angele before the fight started.
The four remained silent for a while, trying to figure out a way to deal with the Cloud Bees.
Only Reyline and Baron were fighting. The rest of the wizards did not do anything reckless. They just observed and calculated the data, trying to figure out the situation of the two Cloud Bees.
'Strength: 11 +, Agility: 8 +, Vitality: 8 +, Spirit: 24 +, Talent: 1. Ice Defense Field – Their powerful Spirit allows them to specialize in the defense and control of ice energy, allowing them to withstand attacks of more than 30 degrees. 2. Defense: They can fly backward to reduce the impact of the attack by more than half. Their force field defense could also deflect about half of the energy impact to both sides. 3. Poison Sting. Release stinger. Damage is unknown. Other Talent: Unknown. '
The two wizards' friends ran to Angele with a serious expression on their faces.
'Simulation completed. Comparison of reference objects completed.'
"Arian, are you alright?" One of the wizards ran to Arian and helped him stand up. "Oh! Heavens!! "he suddenly cried out in alarm.
Before Angele could say anything, he saw two people rushing to the airships. One of them was holding a mace while the other one was holding a crossguard sword and a shield.
Angele was familiar with most of the wizards on the airship.
A black shadow jumped into the airship and landed on Angele's shoulder. It was a Four-winged Night Sparrow.
"Watch out!" Angele raised his right hand.
"Yeah." The man nodded.
They looked like flies surrounding a piece of bread.
The two entered the cabin and returned to their own rooms.
Angele thought for a while in the room, but he could not come up with a good idea. He closed his eyes and took a rest.
"Baron! I'm ready! "Angele sent the message to Baron and Reyline using energy particles.
This was a man with a sinister face. He wore a long black robe and was completely hidden in the dark night. Only his slightly exposed pale face was somewhat conspicuous.
* BAM *
"However, the three airships are equipped with magic matrices that can activate defense and attack runes," Angele suddenly said. "I don't know how strong they are."
He lightly jumped down from the side of the ship, and his footsteps on the deck were crisp and clear in the night. Baron jumped down from the railing after Angele.
Reyline and the other wizards released lightning bolts, but they were all dodged easily. Even if they were hit by the lightning bolts, they would still fly back to the deck.
The rest of the wizards stood up as well.
On Reyline's airship, all the wizards were following his lead. It seemed like they were convinced that Reyline had defeated them. Reyline also had an assistant, a beautiful witch who looked no more than 20 years old. It was said that she was Reyline's cousin. She just wanted to join the discussion between the four leaders of the three ships. She decided to be Reyline's assistant.
A little ahead of the three ships, two small white dots were flying around in front of the fleet.
"What's up?" He walked to Angele and spoke in a light tone. "Are you done with your discussion?"
"Good luck to all of you." Baron put on his hood and followed Angele out of the room, disappearing into the darkness.
In the night.
An old man in a white robe crouched and checked the airship. He turned his head to the side and shook his head.
"Green, tell me the truth. How strong are the defensive runes on the airships?" Baron called Angele from behind.
The light of the two moons shone down, covering everything with a faint layer of white.
The Cloud Bees were still dizzy from the impact. Angele asked the wizards to keep an eye on the Cloud Bees while he walked to the two injured wizards.
In the blue sky, three black ships were suspended by hot air balloons in the shape of bread, slowly moving forward.
The black needles were about half a meter long and pierced through their chests.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The situation on the three airships did not change much. The only thing that changed after Angele mastered the crystal runes was that the wizards all lowered their heads and bowed to him.
The man interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.
"Is there a way to avoid them?" Baron questioned.
"That's easy. The Cloud Bees usually come in pairs. We can give it a try." Reyline nodded.
Reyline and Baron changed their attacks a few times, and the power of each attack was stronger than the previous one. The Cloud Bee's power had already exceeded 40 degrees, but it was still unharmed. It continued to attack without any hesitation.
