Player has activated mission series: Protect the Realm Crack!

Activate Step One: Army of Destruction in the Shadows

Mission Content: Investigate the Army of Destruction near the crack. Determine their motive.

Mission Reward: 40 Jogu

Seeing this reward, Link’s heart jumped. He’d made a promise with the Travel Magician to exchange 300 Jogu for the way to fully fix the realm crack. Skinorse had sent someone to bring him some Jogu recently. Now, he had 273. If he had these additional 40, he would be able to solve the problem completely.

In this case, Link accepted without hesitation.

During this time, the airship had risen to two miles in the air. The range of Celine’s large fire gun was 2.5 miles. This height was perfect, with some space for sudden changes.

She took out five Thorium bullets and pressed them one by one into the gun. Aiming at the Dark Elf Magicians in the distance, Celine said, “Shooter in position!”

“Fighters prepare,” Link ordered again.

All passengers on the airship had been trained. They weren’t very familiar, but all were above Level-8. Their brains worked quickly, and voices sounded within half a minute.

“Magicians are in place! Airship vector defense force field activated! Magic cannon charging, complete in 20 seconds.”

“Warriors in place!”

“Cannons in place. Ready to fire!”

Link felt the Mana within the entire airship. It seemed to be bubbling, but it was stable overall. This was the result of using many new spells. After ensuring that the ship was in perfect state, he said to Merlin, “Approach target. Prepare to attack!”

“Yes.”

Merlin turned to give his crew a series of orders. The airship had entered combat state.

Link didn’t stay in his position during this. He didn’t check the magic projection in the command cabin. Instead, he walked to the window and used his naked eye to observe the ground.

The lake below was very wide, more than six miles in diameter. There were many small islands in the center. Those Dark Elf Magicians were there. From his position, Link could see six Magicians in a circle. Thick Mana waves rippled from them. He could sense that each was above Level-7.

There was a stone tablet before each Dark Elf Magician. The tablets were covered in dark purple light that connected the tablets like a belt. Looking from the sky, he could see a dark purple six-point star.

Obvious Mana waves came from the star. He could see a 600-feet-wide pure black matter hovering in the center of the star.

What was pure black matter? It was something that light could enter but never come out of. The most direct characteristic was that it was darker than anything around it. It was an abnormally pure blackness.

Inside it, Link sensed a horribly distorted space. He looked down at the Eye of the Realm bracelet on his wrist. The crystal had a weak red glow. This meant that there was a passage to another realm here. The pure black matter must…was probably the exit to that passage.

Since it could activate the Eye of the Realm, this meant that the Dark Elves were probably summoning some powerful existence. It would be bad news if they succeeded.

So he had to stop them.

But for some reason, Link felt that something was wrong. It was like he’d missed something when calculating earlier.

What’s the problem? Link stared at the magic seal on the island, brows slightly furrowed.

At this time, Merlin reported loudly, “Lord, we’ve arrived at the attack position!”

His voice shook Link awake. He thought for half a second and then ordered, “Shooters attack at will. Magic cannons, prepare!”

The magic cannon was the most powerful and most large-scale weapon on the airship. Its core was a meteorite Gildern had found from the Free Trade Confederation black market in the South. The original idea came from one of the Mage Tower’s apprentices called Akeers. After Link, Eliard, and the others perfected it through deep research, it resulted in this magic cannon.

Its range reached three miles, and its attacks reached Level-16. One attack could cover 1000 feet in diameter. After recharging, it could fire three times consecutively. On this moving platform, it was Ferde’s most powerful weapon.

Celine started shooting as soon as Link gave the order.

Bang! With the gunshot, a white-gold beam shot down from the airship. It crossed almost two miles instantly and shot into a Dark Elf Magician’s head.

The crystalized Thorium bullet was at Level-13 and had impressive anti-magic elements. It should be able to break through any defense barrier in Firuman.

But then something happened.
