my age of magic

Chapter 515 13. Captain Mackintosh
There are several rebel archers hiding in the bunker outside the hatch door of the deck. Through the dim light in the corridor, as long as there are people moving in the corridor, there will be messy arrows flying into the corridor. The rebels try to use Bows and arrows blocked us in the cabin on this floor. The tauren Luka rushed to the front with a door panel, but he didn't expect that there was a real archer lurking in this group of rebels.

The man in black was lurking among the group of archers, but he didn't succeed in a single blow, and his figure flashed and disappeared. Only assassins among the archers would flee thousands of miles away if they missed a single blow.Although he couldn't escape thousands of miles away, he had disappeared without a trace.

The tauren Luka saw that my arm was only slightly bruised, so he felt relieved. When the black-clothed archer had already hid in the rebel team on the deck, he uttered an angry growl.

He held a double-edged ax in his left hand, and held a broken door panel with the other hand. He resisted the messy arrows and charged forward. He savagely smashed the double-edged ax on the door frame, and then kicked the door frame connected to the deck. , Several rebel swordsmen ambushing at the door were directly knocked into the air by the sudden huge impact. After a few "plop plop" sounds, they fell on the deck in a very embarrassing manner.

Luka jumped from the corridor to the deck, and his strong body knocked two rebel crew members into the air. He was like an earth storm bear in the New Siakis Mountain, swiping the double-edged ax out of the half-moon-shaped blood mist. The red blade light, the heavy double-edged ax split a rebel in half, and the two rebels held the scimitar and took the opportunity to jump off the mast above Luka's head. At this time, Luka seemed to have a pair of eyes behind him. , at the moment when the scimitar held high by the rebels fell quickly and was about to hit the back of Luka's neck, Luka's body suddenly leaned forward, one foot took half a step forward, and the body was supported by this foot , turned around abruptly.

The double-edged ax turned into a red half-moon, cutting off the two rebels at the back door.

The team on our side has begun to grow continuously. Most of the people living in this cabin are distinguished nobles. Some people took up weapons and carefully opened the cabin door.

After the panic began, people who calmed down immediately realized that blindly avoiding will only end up as lambs to be slaughtered.Only through effective resistance can we win freedom for ourselves.

Luka followed closely behind the leather craftsman. At this time, his hand had been replaced with a long knife, and he hid behind Luka with the other two young knights. They had obviously become Luka. A combat partner you can trust.

Behind them were three young nobles who came out of their luxurious cabins. They were wearing exquisite leather armor and carrying crusader-style sabers in their hands. They looked like generals of the Imperial Guard.Two noble servants with the status of Marquis also joined us. These two servants are physically strong and their hands holding weapons are very steady. It can be seen that they are soldiers who have been on the battlefield and have seen great battles.

El City does not lack such excellent fighters, but in the past three years, few of the outstanding fighters who have emerged from the common people are willing to serve the nobles of El City. The reason is actually the difference between nobles and commoners. The contradictions and conflicts among them reached a new height, which directly caused many outstanding civilian fighters who graduated from the academy to be unwilling to serve the nobles.

The pampered nobles had no ability to respond to this sudden disaster, so when the rebel crew showed their ferocious fangs, they were killed all of a sudden, and their blood stained the wooden floor of the entire corridor.

The two proud young knights, holding Roman swords in their hands, cooperated with each other tacitly. The two of them would always work together to deal with a rebel. This small tactical cooperation made them look very eye-catching, and they were always alone. Holding up the knight's light shield is responsible for defense, and the other's Roman sword is responsible for beheading. From their movements, I can see the shadow of the tactical cooperation of the El City Guard Battalion.

As for the three young men with crusader-style sabers, their fighting methods seemed a bit old-fashioned and orthodox. They would always choose to face a rebel army alone, defeat them in a duel, and give them a very powerful weapon. Die with dignity, this ancient way of fighting that will only be passed down by the imperial guards, in my eyes is undoubtedly asking for death, if these young warriors have the courage to do so when they meet barbarians.

I followed at the end of the team, with four series of stone drum totems floating on my body, to ensure that all members of this temporary team could feel the magical aura of the stone drum totem, and to ensure that these soldiers could maintain an ice shield on their bodies. An auxiliary magician can greatly boost the morale of a combat team.

Because of this, under the leadership of the tauren Luka, this improvised battle team, like a tiger entering a flock, smashed through the rebels on the deck, killing them and fleeing in all directions. The black-clothed archer stood at the highest point of the mainmast, and shot his second arrow. The target was Luka the tauren. The jet-black arrow was hard to spot in the night sky, and the arrow went straight through Luka's shoulder armor, deeply embedded in the thick muscles of his shoulders.

Luka looked at the black arrow in surprise, and angrily pulled the arrow out of the shoulder armor, with a barbed tip, bringing out a handful of blood.

The tauren Luka's light armor was made by me in the blacksmith's shop with a steel plate mixed with magic red copper. It is very solid. I didn't expect this black-clothed archer to be able to shoot through it with one arrow. Then, I was shocked that the arrow could still pierce Luka's 'petrified skin'.

I confidently thought that Luka wearing this armor would be able to withstand any attack on the battlefield. It seems that I am a little arrogant.

Many people think that archers are the nemesis of mages, and the longbow in their hands is the biggest threat to mages, but in the eyes of Heidi, the mage is also the nemesis of archers, and the magic skills of mages are also very important to archers. big threat.

On the chaotic deck, members of the combat team began to chase and kill the rebels who were fleeing and planning to hide. The death of the young rebel captain caused them a lot of panic, and the rebels on the deck lost their lives. The will to fight, I can hear that some kind of battle is going on in the cabin under my feet. The first floor below the deck is the civilian rest area. In the rooms there, a large number of civilian fighters who went to the imperial capital to enter the world gathered.

There was a hint of paleness in the sky, and the entire airship became extremely noisy before dawn. The rebels could no longer control the battle situation on the entire airship, and they were completely defeated.

I stood at the door of the cabin, looking up at the black-clothed archer on the top crossbar of the mainmast. His eyes were also watching the entire deck of the airship. At this moment, after he shot an arrow at Luka, he held the longbow in one hand, and kept rubbing his shoulder with the other hand. It seemed that he could not shoot in succession. Such a powerful arrow.

After taking a look at the wound on my arm that had gradually healed, I decided to fight him back.

I rarely use the magic of 'time stagnation', because I think this magic will make me dependent. After using it frequently, I will slowly lose patience and quietly perceive the unique rhythm and rhythm of each magic skill , will become very dependent on the 'time stagnation' magic.

I don't need it to help me increase the success rate of casting spells, because I can grasp the rhythm of these magic skills very well. When casting 'Ice Shield', I don't even need it to help me increase the casting speed, because my casting' Ice shield surgery 'very skilled.

But 'Frost Arrow' is different, it requires at least two and a half seconds of casting time, and will condense a very obvious magical ice arrow in front of the caster's body, allowing the opponent to have enough time to prevent and prepare. Therefore, I It takes the two seconds of subdimensional space given to me by the 'time stop' magic.

When we were learning the magic skill of 'time stagnation', the teacher Heidi asked us to quickly complete the casting of this magic skill within one second. It is a very scary thing for Heidi's tutor to fail the basic class of magic skills, so the students in the Magic Academy are very proficient in the magic skill of 'time stagnation', including me.

Quickly draw a light blue magic circle in the air, let yourself enter a very mysterious space, surrounded by empty and dead silence, this is a sub-dimensional space where only I exist, I am in this space It can only stay in the space for two seconds. I can draw a magic circle in this space and chant spells at will, as long as the spells are correct.

In this sub-dimensional space, it doesn’t matter if you can’t draw the magic pattern circle. When the sub-dimensional space disappears, I will take the half-painted magic pattern circle together from the magic space. Show the figure, and then complete the rest in the real space, this is the true meaning of quick casting.

Because I used the 'time stagnation' magic, in the eyes of other people on the airship deck, my 'ice arrow' was accomplished overnight, like an instant magic.

A light blue magic arrow condensed with countless ice crystals appeared strangely above my head. At the tail of this magic arrow, the magic elements of the ice system were constantly floating outward. I sighed secretly : It seems that my ice archery is still not perfect, and the overflow of magic elements will still happen.

But this is already my strongest attack magic, and when I used the magic scroll of 'Magic Power Catalysis', I looked at the Frost Arrow that was infinitely close to complete, and said in my heart: It turns out that it is in the hands of a third-level magician. This is how ice archery works. (As a first-level magician, the ice arrow technique I usually release cannot condense the arrow tail.)
This Frost Arrow hardly paused at all. At the moment it took shape, it was pulled by my spiritual power and directly escaped from my control, and shot towards the black-clothed archer on the mast. The flying speed of the Frost Arrow was far faster than any other An arrow is much faster, but it is a bit too gorgeous in the dark, and the crystal clear arrow exudes a white light.

The next moment the black-clothed archer standing on the mast saw Frostbolt, he jumped off the mast without hesitation. The landing point was not anywhere on the deck of the airship, but jumped directly from the airship. Frostbolt When it hit the mast, a piece of sparkling ice burst out like fireworks. On the top of the mast, where the ice arrow hit, a layer of light blue ice crystals condensed on the canvas and the mast.

The quick reaction of the black-clothed archer allowed him to dodge the ice arrow. Like a falcon, he curled up and fell down at the fastest speed.

I didn't expect him to give up the entire rebel army on the airship so easily and escape alone. I know that I have enough ability to protect myself from being injured when it lands, but it would be a bit too much to give up the airship so easily. Hasty.

The moment the black-clothed archer jumped off the airship, those rebels on the deck who had no will to fight, but were desperately hiding from the Luka combat team on the airship, finally lost their last trace of will to fight, and they threw their weapons on the ground , raised his hands and chose to surrender...

……

The battle in the cabin on the lower deck was still going on, and I was about to rush into the cabin on the first floor with Luka to deal with the rebels there.

But at this time, Mrs. Alia ran out of the cabin and brought me another news: According to Viscount August, the original owner of the airship, Captain Mackintosh, was imprisoned in the bottom of the airship. In the cargo hold, and at the same time there are several crew members of the airship.Moreover, he also reminded me that after the death of the captain of the rebels and the melee, the airship was already sailing out of control. Although it was still in the original wind layer, without the captain in charge, the airship would inevitably be will go off course again.

Before Mrs. Alia, who was like a ripe cherry, could finish speaking, I turned around and ran down the cabin.

We successfully rescued the dying captain Mackintosh from the cargo hold at the bottom of the ship. The old captain and his crew, over half a century old, had been starving for two days and two nights in the hold at the bottom of the ship. Haggard and disheveled, in this warehouse, food and drinking water are their greatest enemies. Obviously, the rebels did not send them a drop of water or a grain of rice, they were starving.

He expressed his gratitude to me for saving his life.

Luka took out some food and water from his luggage and handed them to the starving crew members. There were only some common wheat cakes in the tauren's backpack, but for these crew members who had been hungry for three days Said, without a doubt, these wheat cakes are the most delicious food in the world.They divided the food in their hands into several small pieces, trying to get everyone a share, and then swallowed it in one gulp...

I explained the situation on the airship to him. When I said that the airship deviated from the course and was heading towards the Ziqing Mountains.

Having just drank a few sips of water, Captain Mackintosh's expression eased a little, and the water bottle in his hand fell to the ground with a 'bang' sound.
