Chapter 543: Single Strike Style; Exit! (1/2)
In the Sequoia Corps, the silver, full plate arcane master watched the siege of the Fearotz Stronghold and muttered to himself, “Something seems wrong.”
The tall arcane master wearing dark red thorned armor asked cautiously, “Lord Divana, what’s wrong?”
“The enemy is reserving their strength. They are clearly trying to buy time. I don’t understand why. Because if those from the Thorns Swamp also reach them, they will only suffer more. In a normal scenario, shouldn’t they be trying to focus on exterminating us first and then turn around to take on that demihumans-plus-monster army?” Divana spoke.
His gaze also turned to the airship which rose up on the other side of the Fearotz Stronghold, “Just like that airship, I don’t understand the reason.”
......
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Sonic booms that could blast the eardrums rapidly approached.
The flying monsters finally reached close enough to be seen by the arcane masters in the Fearotz Stronghold.
There was a two-meter long mosquito reverberating a terrifying bloody arcane power; a monster that seemed to be a mixture of an eagle and ox; a five-meter long white snake with two heads that could fly without wings; a crane-like bird with its entire body bubbling as if it were rotten; ......
“Blood Duke Mosquito!”
“Eagle-Ox Wind Demonic Beast!”
“Dual-Head Serpent!”
“Rotten Poison Lord!”
Powerful swamp monsters familiar to the Royal Thorns Corps swarmed towards them.
Boom!
A platinum arcane energy cluster wrapped in purplish black flames shot out from the airship and drew a long trajectory in the sky.
Divana raised his brows and mumbled to himself, “White Dwarven Artifact Cannon? Suicide?”
The arcane energy cluster emitting powerful arcane energy fluctuations did not hit any of the short-tempered monsters. However, it successfully enraged them.
In an instant, they swept towards the airship.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Various kinds of arcane powers blasted onto the airship.
Facing such a number of monsters with a single airship was certain death.
“What!?”
However, at that moment, everyone held their breaths as the airship rapidly bloated up.
Under the bombardment of the terrifying arcane powers, the airship did not shrink but expand. In a moment, it became a spherical shape.
The sounds of elastic material stretching to their limit echoed in the sky.
Almost every flying monster felt the threat of death and flew back in haste.
Boom!
However, they were too late as the bloated airship violently exploded.
Countless streaks of flame rushed out along with the shockwave.
A second sun appeared in the sky above Fearotz!
Everyone changed their expressions.
Within the radiant sun, countless monster scraps rained down.
Some surviving monsters screamed as they scattered away, completely losing the momentum they had.
“They actually changed such an airship into an explosive type artifact with such power! Even the White Dwarven Artifact Cannon has been discarded?” The confident and narcissistic Divana changed his expression.
“Merlin!”
The hearts of Meraly and the others skipped a beat when they saw the second sun above the Fearotz Stronghold.
“Relax, Merlin won’t be on that.” Ferguillo spoke to calm them down.
“Because if Merlin was in it, the first arcane energy cluster would not have missed.”
......
Grandmaster Yi narrowed his eyes as he watched the second sun and mumbled to himself, “The master is a monster, and the metal clockwork war avatar that follows him is also a monster...... It can even give up the White Dwarven Artifact Cannon so easily...... But that explosion has destroyed at least half of the flying monsters, right?”
“Charlotte, drink this Lunar Dew and prepare for battle. Is it because we seem like easy targets? Whatever the case, we have been marked.” Next, he took out a potion bottle from his sleeve and threw it to Charlotte.
“Lunar Dew? Marked?”
The fatigued Charlotte repeated his words.
“Lunar Dew is the most powerful stamina recovery potion of the Lunar Corps from the Era of the War with Dragons. It’s made by mixing Lunar Flower Nectar with the Spring of Life.”
Grandmaster Yi took a glance at her and pointed towards the sky.
Charlotte raised her head and saw several Depraved Troll Knights diving down towards them.
Without any effective aerial interception, the Depraved Troll Knights could freely look for targets to attack.
The Depraved Troll Knights did not target them because they were powerful arcane masters busy in training, nor did they have any specific objectives to hit them. Rather, it was because Charlotte and Grandmaster Yi were far away from the other Corps arcane masters, making them seem like easy targets.
Charlotte turned to look at Ayrin in the Trauma Room subconsciously.
She did not know what Ayrin was encountering right now, but she could see his body spasming while his expression looked fierce.
You have been protecting me all this time, now it’s my turn to protect you!
The fatigued Charlotte could not even muster enough strength to open the bottle. Determination flashed across her eyes. She bit open the potion bottle and gulped down its content.
Whoosh!
It felt as if a clear spring surged out within her body.
She trembled. All signs of fatigue rapidly faded away.
She felt refreshed, as if she just woke up from a good sleep and was strolling in the morning forest with fresh air.
The clear-headed Charlotte cheered, “Grandmaster Yi, as expected of the Lunar Corps best stamina recovery potion. It’s incredible!”
Guuu......
However, at that moment, her stomach rumbled and a stirring pain transmitted to her brain.
“Grandmaster Yi, why is my stomach hurting?”
Charlotte’s face turned beet red.
