Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 489 - 34 Intense Battle
Chapter 489: Chapter 34 Intense Battle
Having confirmed the location of the encounter, the Wizards began their final preparations to enter the Keroduo Mountain Area.
Richard opened the Secret Realm Rift, releasing war airships one after another. Each of these war airships was specially made by the Military Department, with performance far surpassing ordinary war airships.
There were about five hundred thousand people in the Wizard Army, nearly every ten thousand people received one war airship.
Although this number wasn’t particularly high, it was certainly not low either.
After distributing the airships, the Legion then collected the armored vehicles that had always served as the vanguard.
Although capable of flight, the vehicles’ ability was minor compared to professional Flying Magic Equipment, only sufficient to overcome obstacles. In the primitive mountain area without roads, these vehicles were utterly useless.
Following the norm, all the armored vehicles were stored in Richard’s Secret Realm.
After gathering the equipment, the massive army set off once again.
Within two hours, the Keroduo Mountain Area had already come into view for all the Wizards.
Richard, looking at the Keroduo Mountain Area, spoke to Ulysses on his shoulder, "This is going so smoothly, it seems those Galaxy Mayflies had already arrived ahead of time."
A brilliant light shone in Ulysses’ eyes as, under the gaze of the Divine Eye, every blade of grass in the Keroduo Mountain Area became incredibly clear.
The illusions prepared by the Galaxy Mayflies were directly seen through.
Through Ulysses’ eyes, the Mayflies ambushing in the Keroduo Mountain Area seemed to cover the sky.
"Not a small number, at least seventy to eighty million."
Richard merely smiled lightly, "Just seventy to eighty million. Although the Legion is now without its vanguard, our war airships aren’t just for show. Breaking through their defense shouldn’t be a problem."
"What about the Galaxy Mayflies flanking from both sides?"
Ulysses looked into the distance where, in his vision, swathes of Mayfly-shaped clouds were swiftly approaching.
"At least seven hundred million."
"How far away are they from us?"
"Not very sure, my eyes aren’t range finders. But I estimate they won’t reach us within half an hour."
"That’s manageable then."
Once they entered the Keroduo Mountain Area and deployed the Mist Barrier, even seven hundred million Mayflies wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.
But first, they had to get into the Keroduo Mountain Area.
Richard informed via the psychic network, "Prepare to meet the enemy; the enemy is roughly seventy to eighty million."
Upon receiving Richard’s intelligence, all of the White Wizard commanders instantly perked up. In the psychic network, the commanders of the White Wizards began to exchange jargon and some internal slang of the White Wizards to ensure that the breakout would proceed smoothly.
Richard also joined some of the discussions and, together with Delis, arranged positions for a number of Black Wizards.
Among the Wizards pulled from the front, not only White Wizards were present. Compared to the large number of White Wizards, the Black Wizards were fewer, but the number of powerful ones was surprisingly high.
Despite currently having over eighty White Wizards, the number of Black Wizards in the Legion was nearly double that of the White Wizards.
Although these Black Wizards weren’t as overwhelmingly powerful as Delis and Richard, a significant portion of them were elite Black Wizards selected from an initial gathering of Wizards.
In combat, these Black Wizards, when fully utilized, were not inferior to a Legion of one hundred thousand White Wizards.
One hundred kilometers, seventy kilometers, fifty kilometers... The Wizard Army was getting closer and closer to the position where the Galaxy Mayflies were ambushed. Ulysses could even see the brilliance of energy being gathered by the Mayfly generals in the Mayfly Army.
Finally, at the thirty-kilometer mark, the Wizards made their move.
"Legion Magic Concentrated Fire prepare, release the Meteor!"
The next moment, the vast Wizard Army, numbering over half a million, swung their magic wands in unison. Their spells drained the free elements for dozens of kilometers around, and the Magic Fluctuations, resonating with one another, created a breeze of magic power.
Such massive fluctuations, as masters of manipulating energy, were immediately noticed by the Galaxy Mayflies.
Although they were surprised that the Wizards had seen through the illusions they had carefully prepared, it was no longer important.
They just had to stall the Wizards for half an hour, and the following Mayflies could annihilate the Wizards at the entrance of the Keroduo Mountain Area.
In an instant, tens of thousands of Energy Light Spears, like a rain of arrows, covered the sky.
The perpetually night sky of the Galaxy World lit up, brightened by the Light Spears!
Buzzing...
Tens of thousands of Light Spears struck the Legion’s barriers, erupting into bursts of energy fireworks.
The Wizards remained expressionless, calmly raising their left hands. On their left arms, an armband shone with a faint light.
"The Magic Armor of the Legion is working very well," Richard noted, looking at the vast barrier in the distance, unable to help but remark.
The armband on the Wizards’ left arm was the Legion Magic Equipment distributed by the Military Department. The Wizards simply needed to inject Magic Power, and the Wizard Army could autonomously form a Legion Shield with this Legion Magic Equipment.
As the incessant rain of Light Spears fell amid bursts of energy fireworks, the Legion Magic of the Wizard Army was finally completed.
In an instant, five hundred huge meteors—with diameters exceeding twenty meters—appeared in the sky. Under the Wizard’s control, these meteors traced an elegant parabola and precisely hit the formation of the Galaxy Mayflies.
Boom!
The meteors burst over the broad front line, and the dual attack of physical Elements instantly shattered the Galaxy Mayflies’ energy shields.
The next moment, the Wizard Army again waved their magic wands. Countless fireballs, like the apocalyptic rain of fire, formed a Fire Element Great Wall stretching for tens of kilometers along the front line.
Richard, commanding from the center of the battle, murmured under his breath, "It’s still not enough."
With that, he leapt forward, his body becoming larger as he flew.
Joining him were numerous Black Wizards who, having been tested in war and assisted by the Wizard Army, were nearly equivalent to a minor World Master.
If nothing went wrong, this combination of Black and White Wizards would become a new battle tactic after this war.
Richard flew above the legion, a ten-thousand-strong White Wizard group backing him. A continuous stream of Magic Power infused into his body, a ten-thousand Wizards’ enhanced soul network distributed the wear and tear on his spiritual power.
The next moment, Richard’s body condensed its glowing light, pointing his magic wand forward, a dazzling aurora river surged from the tip of the wand, instantly piercing through the Mayfly Army.
This strike had reached the strength of one hundred thousand Energy Levels!
But this was just the beginning, the diversely skilled Black Wizards, empowered by the White Wizard Army, began showing off their special abilities.
Delis transformed his body into a Shadow Gate, summoning a formidable Shadow Army. With the amplification from the ten-thousand White Wizard Army, he even summoned a group of Third Level Shadow Flying Dragons.
On another front, a Shaping Wizard’s elemental body suddenly swelled to nearly ten meters, with a wave of his hand, countless Runes transformed into a pitch-black point in his palm. Another wave, and this black point was already on the Mayfly Army’s energy barrier.
Boom!
A mushroom cloud of Fire Elements rose, incinerating hundreds of thousands of mayflies to ashes.
With the assistance of the Legion, the Undead Wizard opened a gateway to the Undead Dimension. A portal of bones burning with eerie blue ghost flames released countless crazed Undead craving the flesh and souls of the living. Under wizard control, they surged towards the Mayfly Army like a tide.
The Soul Wizard felt somewhat powerless in this war since the Galaxy Mayfly’s soul network distributed the soul damage. Thus, they turned themselves into humanoid Magic Equipment, from which the White Wizard commanders, with their support, began to unleash even deadlier Legion Magic.
Meanwhile, the soldiers of the White Wizard Army were also busy, unleashing rounds of Magic Concentrated Fire. The Wind Element and Fire Element storms directly formed a Burning Wind tornado reaching thousands of meters high in the Mayfly Army.
The ashes of the Galaxy Mayflies almost piled into a mountain.
"Damn, when did these wizards become so powerful?" cursed a general in the private psychic network of the Mayfly generals.
The combat effectiveness of the wizards had taken them by surprise. Since the start of the war, the wizards had been on the defensive. Their capabilities, though versatile, didn’t seem special to the Mayflies.
Black Wizards were specialized in individual combat power like the Mayflies; the White Wizard Army was like the Mayfly Legion.
They had all these things.
But the current combat effectiveness of the wizards overturned their understanding.
They were the intercept troops, not as arrogant as the flank encircling troops. They were confident their preparations were sufficient.
Both the arrangement of illusions and the choice of formations were impeccable.
But none of them had expected the wizards’ combat capabilities to be so formidable.
"Stop yelling, how long until the flanking troops arrive?"
"Fastest is fifteen minutes."
"Fifteen minutes? We can’t hold out even five!"
The Galaxy Mayflies were also counterattacking. Their Light Spear beams were even more numerous than the wizards’ spells. Torrential rains of energy beams struck the wizards, with many spells detonating midair, turning into free Elements.
Even within the Wizard Army, some Black Wizards were blasted to bits by the Galaxy Mayflies’ Light Spears.
But this didn’t slow the wizards down.
The wizards were charging, like Heavy Armored Cavalry across the plains, vowing to crush anyone standing in their way. freёnovelkiss.com
"Then let them through! My tribe can’t afford more losses!"
"Move aside? But the orders..."
"To hell with the priests’ orders, all the old soldiers are dead, and my tribe can only serve as cannon fodder next!"
Amid roars within the psychic network, the Galaxy Mayflies fought while retreating, pulling back to the Keroduo Mountain Area.
Centered around the War Airships, the Wizard Army charged unstoppable into the Keroduo Mountain Area.
Before the last wizard entered the Keroduo Mountain Area, he glanced to either side. The encircling Mayfly forces could now clearly see the vanguard.
The Giant Beast was a fraction too slow to close its jaw.
...
Five minutes later, the encircling Galaxy Mayflies converged in front of Keroduo Mountain Area, staring at the mist-enshrouded region, their general fell silent for a long time.
Finally, an old Mayfly spoke, "Report the news of this battle upwards..." after a pause, he added:
"Also, request an aerial strike."
