Wizard's Journey

Chapter 321 Surface Ice Plains (Part Twelve)

After one and a half hourglasses.

Buzz, buzz...

Amidst the distinctive low mechanical hum of spaceships, the blurry outlines of two spaceships appeared in the night sky in the far distance.

The muzzle of the massive cannon at the front of the airship resembled a gaping maw of an abyss, unleashing an oppressive aura without restraint.

This is a masterpiece of mechanical art in the wizarding world, enough to make any being below the level of a world lord feel overwhelmed and unable to fight against it.

Whoosh, whoosh...

A chaotic cacophony of flapping wings, howls, and shrieks...

Before the chaotic, swarming mass of slave monsters, a procession of hundreds of orderly Ming wizards appeared. The wizard legion, embodying order and reason, stood in stark contrast to the chaotic, brutal monster army that almost disappeared into the background.

In the night sky, each elemental wizard was surrounded by faint elemental light threads, making them incredibly mysterious.

Two massive spaceships flanked the main body of the vessel, their sturdy, heavy, and indestructible structures providing protection.

At the front of the neatly arranged demon hunter wizard formation stood an elderly, white-bearded second-level male wizard holding a withered wooden magic staff. He wore a wide blue wizard's robe, a tall hat with a bright ruby ​​inlaid in the center, and carried a thick scroll about a meter long on his back. His eyes were deep and wise.

This person should be Alov, the captain of the Demon Hunter Wizard Formation mentioned in the scroll of this mission.

The massive team of Ming wizards hunting demons stopped in unison thirty meters in front of Green, following a wave of their hand from the white-bearded, aged wizard at the front.

All the wizards and slave monsters looked at the mysterious figure on the body of the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab, a colossal creature fifty meters long with its two legs spread open.

A ram's horn skull magic wand, a gray-white spiral-patterned mask, and a beautifully feathered myna bird...

Alov's deep, elemental eyes flashed as he asked in a low voice, "Are you the Grimm Demon Hunter Wizard?"

At the top of the Thousand-Eyed Crab, Grimm slowly nodded, and beneath the Mask of Truth, he asked in a deep voice, "Alov?"

The myna bird on Green's shoulder flapped its wings and flew towards Alov, grabbing the mission scroll from Green's hand. The mission scroll was then handed to Alov by hundreds of black insects the size of fingernails.

The two of them caught each other's scrolls at the same time.

With a "poof," hundreds of black insects scattered into black ash, and the next moment they appeared in front of Alov and burrowed into his sleeve.

The myna bird was a blur, and the next moment it landed back on Green's shoulder from the dimensional gap.

"Hehe, Lord Green, now that the mission has been decided, please lead the way."

Although Alov didn't say it aloud, he was shocked. This thousand-eyed giant crab definitely had the aura of a level three creature, no doubt about it.

This first-level demon hunter dark wizard is actually...

"Um."

After calculating the coordinates in his mind, Green pointed in a direction towards the Thousand-Eyed Crab at his feet.

"Understood, Lord Green."

After clumsily turning its body, the Thousand-Eyed Crab let out a low growl and flew sideways in the direction Green pointed, quickly stomping through the air.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

A legion of demon hunters, composed of numerous sorcerers and slave monsters, followed closely behind the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab as it flew forward, casting large shadows across the sky and gliding into the distance.

These "exotic horror creatures" from outside the nest world left the icy plains silent wherever they went, with some weaker creatures lying on the ground trembling in fear.

After all, most of the creatures on the surface ice plains of the Nest World are just low-level, insignificant creatures.

……

Four and a half months later.

A majestic mountain range, towering ten thousand meters high and covered in snow, appeared. Green gestured for the Thousand-Eyed Crab to stop and wait for a while.

A moment later, the Ming Wizard team and a large legion of slave monsters followed.

Pointing to the towering, majestic mountain range in front of them, Green said to Alov, "After crossing this mountain range, there will be a large area of ​​trees with dark red canopies at the bottom of the valley, and in an unknown place, our mission target, the swarm of ice bats, will be gathered."

Alov nodded silently, his eyes deep and seemingly already having a plan. He quickly turned around and issued mission orders to the group of Ming Wizards.

twitter……

In the demon hunter team, one of the demon hunters, with two purple-headed falcons perched on his shoulders, let out a low cry and soared into the sky.

High in the sky, as the rolling threads of natural elemental power gathered, a gigantic eye several meters in size appeared. A golden pupil in the center of the eye kept rotating, seemingly a kind of sensory magic.

Under the masterful manipulation of elemental power by an ice elemental wizard, a half-meter-long ice bat gradually took shape, so lifelike that it was almost identical to the biological specimen that Grimm had brought back.

As the blood of the ice bat from a small vial seeped into the elemental sorcery, the elemental ice bat flapped its wings and flew away.

Another sorcerer's ear suddenly grew to an enormous size...

Green stared in astonishment at these demon hunter wizards.

Is this the teamwork and cooperation of a team of light wizards? With the complementary knowledge of many wizards, they are indeed far superior to dark wizards who fight alone.

Just a moment later, the wizard whose ears had grown unusually large burst into laughter: "Captain, we've found it!"

"coordinate?"

Alov's words were clean and concise.

After the sorcerer announced a series of coordinates, several energy pressures that startled Green began to gradually form.

Turning my gaze, I saw that eighteen wizards formed a six-star magic circle, and their elemental energies were mutually pulling each other down, accumulating some terrifying super-class magic.

This ability to accumulate combined magic is something that will never be possible among dark wizards.

Among the team of over six hundred Ming wizards, there were three such magic circles. A terrifying energy pressure was accumulating wildly within the magic circles, yet it remained extremely stable and would not erupt.

Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! ...

One after another, elemental activated creatures were summoned and flew to the front of the Ming Wizard team's formation along with the myriad forms of slave monsters, passing over some of the lower parts of the mountains.

Meanwhile, the Ming Wizard Legion closely protected the fifty-four demon hunter Ming Wizards who had gathered the magic of three large super-class magic arrays, as they steadily flew upwards in a parallel path.

Both spaceships can maintain stable combat capabilities even in the chaotic layer of the world, and this towering mountain will not hinder them at all.

This coordinated combat style immediately reminded Green of the regional academy battles during his time as a wizard apprentice.

If we're talking about the current level of Demon Hunter Wizards, when both sides have more than 10,000 members, the Dark Wizards will have absolutely no chance of winning!

"Gagaga, young master, young master, quick, let's go take a look."

The myna bird was excited and impatiently urged on.

Green nodded, gesturing for the Thousand-Eyed Crab beneath his feet to fly into the sky.

As gusts of cold wind swept across their faces, the massive body of the Thousand-Eyed Crab flew from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, and then from the mountainside to the ridge.

Finally, the Thousand-Eyed Crab stopped on the ridge, and Green stood there, overlooking the battle situation of the Ming Wizard Demon Hunter Legion.

A quarter of an hour later.

In another relatively low mountain range in the distance, three terrifying beams of energy suddenly blazed brightly. After a moment of silence, the sky was followed by a deafening shockwave and strong winds that rushed towards us.

"Ptooey, ptooey..."

The myna bird seemed to have accidentally swallowed some snow and soil mixed in with the shockwave, and quickly hid inside the Green Wizard's Cover, spitting out "Pui, pui, pui" repeatedly.

The Thousand-Eyed Crab raised one of its claws to shield itself from the shockwave and strong winds, which scattered the crab's long, reddish-brown fur.

After the shockwave and strong winds subsided, the sky gradually calmed down, and then three white steam mushroom clouds, tens of meters high, appeared in the sky.

Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak...

However, even after the Ming Wizard's surprise attack, the dense torrent of ice bats still appeared as if their numbers had not decreased much, and they rushed violently towards the Ming Wizard's army.

Or perhaps, because there were simply too many ice bats, the reduction wasn't too noticeable.

Or perhaps Green miscalculated the quantity.

hum!hum!

Suddenly, two more dark red beams of light flashed by, and a large number of ice bats instantly disintegrated into a rain of ice flowers and blood. The area covered by the dark red beams of light exploded with a series of "poof, poof, poof, poof".

This is the disintegrating cannon of a spaceship.

After the two spaceships released their main cannon energy blasts, a metal mechanical arm, wielding an energy lightsaber and continuously firing its numerous secondary cannons, charged headlong into the surging torrent of ice bats.

A vast number of bizarre and grotesque slave monsters of all sizes, baring their fangs and roaring, charged fearlessly towards the torrent of ice bats under the command of the Ming Wizard team, together with the elemental activated life forms.

As for the Ming Wizards themselves, apart from a few body-refining melee wizards who also rushed into the battle, most of them began to unleash elemental magic, constantly bombarding the enemy from the rear with elemental spells.

The torrent of ice bats appeared turbulent, but thanks to the orderly and effective coordination of the Ming Wizard, they began to be constantly surrounded and strangled, without even a chance to escape.

The battle lasted for a full hour and a half.

A level 2 Ice Bat King, although considered one of the top-tier creatures among the surface ice field creatures of the Nest World, was blasted into dust the moment it appeared under the spells of numerous Ming Wizards.

A wizard in charge of recording missions handed a crystal ball to Alov.

Half an hourglass time later.

As the demon-hunting expedition team embarked on their journey back to the space fortress, Green, standing atop the Thousand-Eyed Crab, said to Alov, "Your teamwork in combat has truly broadened my horizons; it's something that dark wizards simply cannot match."

While offering compliments, Green felt a pang of regret in his heart.

Just now, these wise wizards ruthlessly collected all the soul-gathering gel-like substance from the canopy of all the strange trees.

"This is what we should accomplish, but in terms of individual combat ability, the Dark Wizard is the true powerhouse."

Alov seemed to be in good spirits; none of his comrades had died in the battle just now.

As the group of witch hunters departed, all that remained was a flattened mountain peak, a shattered ridge littered with corpses and ravines, a scene of utter devastation.

All the dark red canopies had completely withered away.
