The Scorching River had rapid currents which could easily knock a cargo ship over.
In the past, no matter how terrible the weather was, a few dozen huge ships would still be transporting goods to the cities along the Scorching River, but there was not a single cargo ship on the river today. The ships were carrying Mages in the brown outfits that belonged to the rebelling army.
The other side of the Scorching River was like a beach the Brown rebellious army had set foot on to invade Banlo City’s green territory.
The Mages were able to use their magic easily once they set foot on land. The Wind Mages joined hands to summon Wind Warships that could fly rapidly above the ground!
The Wind Warships carried thousands of Mages as they advanced. Even those who did not have any Movement Spells just had to stay within the Wind Magic’s coverage to move along at the speed of a jeep.
.
More Wind Warships appeared in series as more Mages crossed the boundary of the Scorching River. The line of defense that had been established near the Scorching River did not put up any resistance.
That line of defense was made up of thick tropical woods. They could grow rapidly into a rainforest under the control of Plant Mages when needed.
Unfortunately, the Mages who were on duty along the line of defense had put on the brown outfits of the rebels too. Even the resistance had joined the Brown tide which was surging fiercely towards the outskirts of Banlo City.
Banlo City had a lot of swamps on its outskirts. The enemy would reach the city as soon as they crossed the swamps.
—
When the first Wind Warship reached the swamp, a loud siren immediately sounded on the other side.
“Warning, you are entering Banlo City without permission. The Andes Federation will attack you if you enter the swamp!”
The warning kept repeating as if Banlo City had a powerful armed force guarding it.
The Wind Warships completely ignored the warning. They went straight across the swamp and attacked Banlo City before it could respond!
“Connect your Star Orbits and Star Patterns just like a normal spell!” the captain of the first Wind Warship said.
The Wind Mages began using their magic. White Star Orbits surrounded the Wind Warship like a circuit that had been activated, transmitting an enormous amount of energy.
“Wind Gear Wheel!”
“Smash through it!”
“This city is ours!” the commander of the Brown rebels yelled.
“The city is ours!” the rest of the army followed.
—
The Wind Magic that poured into the Wind Warship turned it into a Magic Wind Cannon. Huge tornadoes began to rise above the swamps.
The tornadoes were like giant gear wheels, crushing the roads, hills, and structures in their paths.
The hills turned into ravines, while the roads had huge cracks on them. The outskirts of the city were split into several pieces. The fierce winds lashed at the outskirts like giant whips.
