The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 189 The Golem Descends from the Sky

Multicolored lights exploded in the night sky above the palace.

Lia fell from the night sky like a light feather, drifting with the evening breeze.

All the protective magic on her body was dispelled, leaving her paralyzed, and even her consciousness became blurred under the influence of some kind of mind-affecting magic.

"It failed..."

As she fell, Leah felt the icy, biting wind brush against her cheeks and tug at her clothes.

Below them stood a magnificent royal palace complex, where countless guards looked up at them with disbelief.

"What have I done today...?"

"He betrayed his father, was stripped of his crown prince position, and blasphemed the great gods..."

"I was too impulsive after all, hahaha..."

Leah felt like she was dreaming, a crazy dream.

In the cold wind, the princess of the sun elves closed her eyes.

Leah wished this were all a dream.

When I woke up, none of this had happened yet...

……

"Your Highness, you're awake?"

Inside the palace, Leah rose from her luxurious bed, panicked:
"Did Father's ritual succeed? Have humans truly reverted to a barbaric race incapable of magic?"

Beside the bed, a maid dressed in the gorgeous and elaborate traditional elven attire smiled:

"Your Highness, are you still half asleep? Or did you have some strange dream?"

"Humans... uh, are they that new race that has only appeared in the last few hundred years?"

"I remember they seemed to have some primitive villages, kind of like goblin kobolds..."

Leah looked bewildered.

After a long while, the Sun Elf prince finally smiled, as if suddenly realizing something:

"It turned out to be a dream."

Princess Leah recalled that it was a very bizarre, fantastical, and absurd dream:
His close friend Alamir was imprisoned by humans; he himself was captured alive by humans during the war; he fought alongside humans in the Mind Flayer City; the two countries had maintained friendly trade relations for many years; and humans even produced many high-quality and inexpensive goods…

What a strange dream.

Princess Lia stepped out of the room and met her beloved father and her brother, who was jealous of her status as crown prince. She greeted them, and her father responded with a warm smile.

She returned to her daily life, enjoying the palace's delicacies day after day, practicing magic, and dreaming about what she would do after inheriting the throne.

Soon after, Leah completely forgot about that absurd dream.

Finally, one day, Lia put on the crown and was crowned in front of countless sun elves.

At that moment, a blinding light pierced through the dream.

……

light.

Leah saw the light.

Rapid flashes of light erupted from all directions.

Princess Lia opened her eyes and saw bursts of dazzling flashes of light erupting high in the sky, which was not sealed off by the space barrier.

One after another, elemental-powered airships and high-ranking human spellcasters appeared in the night sky. — This was due to the spell [Teleportation] and the [Teleportation Jump] function of the airships, which were an improvement on the Mind Flayer's ship technology!
Hu Hu Hu.

A huge bone dragon swept past Lia and caught her as she fell.

"Are you alright, Your Highness?"

Lia struggled to her feet and looked back at the figure in shimmering gold robes standing on the bone dragon's neck.

El-Erian.

"King of Mankind, my father is performing a ritual. He has captured Seymour and is attempting to erase the fact that humans once possessed magic..."

El-Erian raised his hand:
"No need to say anything. We already know."

“That’s what we’re here for.”

As night fell, General Saul's voice descended from the sky:

"Sun Elf King Larklais and other legendary spellcasters, immediately cease high-level magical rituals."

"Otherwise, you will bear the wrath of all Eldoron."

"Follow my command, soldiers of Eldoron and the golem legions, seize the Sun Elf's palace!"

More than 50 giant airships opened their hatches, and huge figures, three to five meters tall, jumped out of the air.

Knock knock knock, knock knock knock.

These sturdy figures crashed into various locations within the royal palace complex, each creating a large crater in the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

Ta Ta Ta.

These towering figures emerged from the smoke and dust with heavy steps.

—It's a golem!

The main types are iron golems and rock golems.

These invulnerable golems remain unharmed even when falling from hundreds of meters in the air.

The iron golem raised its greatsword, and the rock golem took heavy steps, ignoring the guards' attempts to stop it, and marched toward the brass palace where the ceremony was taking place.

"What is this?"

Are these sculptures moving?

"Is it a statue activated by the [Animated Object] spell?"

The palace guards were completely bewildered by these unfamiliar enemies.

"Wait, I remember now, this is the [Golem] weapon that the Eldoran army has kept secret all along, right?"

"A golem? That secret weapon against demons?"

The sun elf warriors raised their bows and arrows and fired at the golem.

Arrows rained down on the towering golems.

"Stop these moving sculptures!"

"We must not allow them to approach His Majesty Larklai's brass palace."

At this moment, the elves still harbored a sense of wishful thinking.

Since golems are the secret weapon against demons, they shouldn't be too difficult for elves to deal with.
