Extraordinary Sailing

end of august.

On the New World, the aftershocks of the "Sea of ​​Fog" incident are still fermenting here.

Some forces were overjoyed, while others were devastated, and all kinds of confrontations, both open and secret, could never stop for a moment.

And at dusk on a fine day.

In the upper reaches of the San Francisco River in the southern part of the New World, which seemed to be undisturbed by those disputes at all, the three small two-masted mixed-sailing boats were almost completely integrated into the surrounding environment, and only barely revealed a trace of strangeness because they went upstream. They slowly docked in a piece of river water Deeper wooded river banks.

The optical invisibility effect slowly dissipated, revealing the dark green background of the sailboat.

It was still the wet season. Although large warships could not enter the inland river, there was no problem with this small privateer.

Aiwen, who had activated the "Venom" armor on his body, walked out of the cabin, reconfirmed the target's situation from the spiritual network, and waved his big hand to issue an order:

"Abandon ship and land!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A series of lean figures that are more agile than a cheetah, all flew to the river bank in just two minutes, and took advantage of the opportunity to enter the dense forest to hide.

Now it is only three kilometers away from the target location, which is close enough for wizards, and the risk of exposure will undoubtedly be greatly increased if they advance from the open river in a big way.

Aiwen was in charge of holding the formation, and after the last one set foot on the river bank, he scanned all the combatants in this operation.

Headed by Aiwen himself [Brand Swordsman], Anita [Great Knight], and Geer [Tree of Life Totem Warrior], three third-order transcendents, plus a powerful foreign aid wearing a hooded robe that no one can imagine.

Extraordinary-level pirate cadres: William, Alec, Baldwin (Pipkin), Zenaro (Totem Warrior of the Tree of Life), Jasmine (Tide Messenger), Jeanne, Granny, O'Neill (just joined under the "Oathbreaker" of

In addition to those lost in the sea of ​​mist, the number of "Pipkins" has increased to fifty during this period, becoming the strongest team of extraordinary people in the "Dragon Cavalry Pirates".

Angie and Olivia deserve credit for their hard work.

There is also the "Venom" army composed of 300 elite pirates. Although they can only be equipped with a simplified version of "Venom" that can be increased to the senior apprentice level, it is already a powerful force that not many forces can show.

In addition, Milan, Boris, and Gary are three orthodox transcendents from "The Horn of the Storm".

As for the navy directly under his command, Vader, the sail captain who Ivan is more optimistic about, and Fleck, who is no longer a recruit, are the only two potential stocks who hope to be promoted to formal knights by their own strength, but they did not bring them.

They have been following Aiwen for nearly three years. Under the supply of cultivation resources far exceeding that of the past and Aiwen's careful guidance, the two have both reached the peak level of trainees, ready to launch the final sprint to the formal knight.

Even if the hope of the third rank is slim, it is the most stable orthodox extraordinary path after all. It can also be promoted normally in the kingdom's officer system like Gary, and it may not be an important part of the "Garriot system" in the navy.

Aiwen doesn't even have a shortage of formal knights of ordinary standards now, so naturally he won't delay them.

besides.

Because it is related to his career as a wizard and the future of the "Activation School", the fledgling Aiwen can be regarded as mobilizing all the forces under his command, leaving no leeway for breaking the boat, and it is bound to crush the past with dignity.

Only success is not allowed to fail!

What's more, there is Samuel, the evil alchemist, who is a 25-year-old boy, so that Ivan is fully qualified to learn from Huggins' actions when he captured the "Heart of the Ocean", do his homework in advance, and know himself and the enemy.

Since the capture of Samuel, Aiwen sent a large number of seagulls here. As soon as he saw the "blasphemers" haunting the neighborhood, he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

"From now on, everyone is silent, and only transmissions through the spiritual network are allowed. Headed by the 'Phikin' troops, let's go!"

Olivia, who was following Aiwen, tacitly threw an egg-sized organic tourmaline.

imit——

【Gem Witchcraft Mimicry】

A burst of dim colored brilliance flashed away, and the team of nearly 400 people slowly disappeared into the forest.

And as long as you look up from this position, you can see a huge bastion mixed with many mechanical structures standing quietly in the sunset on the towering river valley cliff not far away.

At the same time, in Gaoya Fort.

The head of the school, Cedric, looked at the two official wizards and ten wizard apprentices below. The setting sun shone on his face through the narrow window of the bastion, and his expression was a little dark and difficult to understand:

"Have you memorized the teachings of the fog of order? You are ready, the messenger has sent a message back, and they will make a special trip to 'High Cliff Castle' tonight to hold an initiation ceremony for you."

"Yes, Your Excellency the Chief!"

For the "eternal life" that is almost at your fingertips, the first batch of evil alchemists who are preparing to welcome their new life can only be excited.

Ever since the "blasphemer" who was the envoy visited "High Cliff Fort" and exchanged letters several times. With the [Omnic Template] layer as a fig leaf for the possibility of spiritual detachment in the future, a "unified" opinion was gradually reached internally.

More precisely, the faction of the school that supports cooperation easily overwhelms the faction that opposes it.

Afterwards, the personnel of both parties could not wait to launch the first step of cooperation, taking the path of "small-scale pilot" first and then "large-scale rollout".

As for why the other party chose "High Cliff Fort" as the location for the initiation ceremony, Cedric, who did not express much on this matter, also knew it well.

It is nothing more than declaring a miracle to expand its influence, and taking this opportunity to absorb more wizards from the "Mechanical Immortality School" to join the "Secret Cult of the Mist of Order".

After reporting the news to the first batch of "volunteers", Cedric turned his head to look at the second and third seats around him, and said nothing more.

However, as a figure who can sit on the chief throne of the school, he also has his own considerations.

If the evil alchemists join the "Fog of Order" collectively, he, the chief, will suffer the most damage on the surface. But he can see most of the people in the school's eagerness to move. It is a school of black wizards, so what can we expect from the perseverance and perseverance of the members of the school?

"However, that's fine"

With the bait of "eternal life" hanging in front of him, at least he can easily distinguish the thoughts of everyone in the school, and then he may not be able to rely on the "fog of order" to obtain greater benefits for himself.

suddenly.

Teng!

Cedric, who was in deep thought, suddenly changed his face and stood up suddenly. The second and third seats beside him were the same, only half a step slower.

In the keen spiritual perception of the three peak wizards, a gloomy and huge wave of magic power suddenly exploded outside the bastion. It seems that the material world has been torn open and connected to a dark and strange region.

next moment.

"ah!"

A shrill scream suddenly sounded from the lower level of the fort, followed by the roar of guns in the hands of the alchemist.

Aww——

Soon, in this hall full of shadows, a group of more than a dozen huge shadow demon wolves with heads and shoulders higher than human height also suddenly rushed out, and flew towards the group of apprentices standing below.

Reaching out and pointing out a dazzling ball of light, Cedric, who dispelled all the shadows in the hall, saw the faces of the intruders change slightly:

"Shadow creature?! Hellinger school?"

Although they belong to the same school of black wizards, they don't have much enmity, why would they undeclared war against themselves at this time?

Outside the High Cliff Fort, on the side away from the cliff, almost one kilometer away.

The "Shadow Dragon" Kaka, which was already more than ten meters long, put its limbs on the ground, raised its tail high, and let out a low whining sound from its throat.

In front of it is a hole that is deeper than the night, and giant wolves covered in dark blue are spewing out one after another.

As soon as it appears, it will turn into a shadow in the setting sun, rush into the high cliff castle and start a killing spree.

The "Shadow Realm" is a magical world that coexists with the material world in which human beings live.

In this world, there are also mountains, rivers, continents and oceans, and even various human city buildings.

But everything in it is distorted, full of contrasts between black and white, and the colors are monotonous and boring. It is a place that any normal human being would not want to stay for a long time.

When the "Shadow Realm" and the material world merge and overlap at a certain moment, a natural wonder called "Black Embankment" will be formed.

If a barren patch of the Shadow Plane manifested in an inaccessible part of the physical world, it would certainly have no effect. But it would be a catastrophe if the lair of a powerful shadow world creature became a "black embankment" and came to the material world.

Aiwen once obtained a lot of coordinates of the Shadow Realm from the "Shadow School" black wizard Simpson who hid in "Katarov's Portrait of Death".

Of course they dare not touch the extremely dangerous ones, but there is no problem with small shadow creature lairs with hundreds of shadow demon wolves.

Kaka, who happened to have obtained the blood of the orthodox shadow dragon, has enough deterrent power against them. I dare not say anything else, but there is still some deterrent power for them to distinguish between enemy and friend.

Of course, a natural disaster like the Black Dike cannot be created, but it consumes a lot of extraordinary materials to forcibly pull it, temporarily communicates with the shadow world and the material world, and establishes a small boundary channel.

Behind Kaka.

The spiritual wind howls.

The portable ritual [Position Ceremony·Red-haired Witch] that Olivia made in advance has been rearranged, and the complicated array of red runes has been activated.

Pippi, who officially crossed the 50-meter limit and became a large-scale sea monster named "Thorn Crown Sea Snake", did not go overland with Aiwen and the others because of his large size, but was directly teleported by Kaka's [Black Chamber].

At this time, under Aiwen's order, the body covered with steel scales was rolled up and surrounded by the ceremony, acting as the last flesh and blood barrier. The defense alone is not much weaker than the steel barrier of the same size.

Pippi: Is this what people do? I am afraid.

At the same time, Aiwen, who was standing inside the position ceremony, raised his hands high.

call--

When the Shadow Demon Wolf broke into the fortress and caused chaos, the [Puppet Bomb] in the sky, which used an alchemy bomb as its body but had a pair of transparent air wings, had also arrived at the predetermined position.

Following Ivan waved his hand suddenly.

call out! call out! call out! call out!

It was as if missiles with guidance functions were rushing down at high speed.

Just at this time, a brass gate emerged at the top of the bastion.

The head of the school, Cedric, stepped out using the teleportation ability of the fortress-type wizard tower, and the three seats followed behind him.

Seeing what was coming through the sky, the two of them lost their souls in an instant.

Swish!

Cedric waved his hand quickly, and a large brass book with a complex lock on the cover and a leather page sandwiched in some uncoordinated inside appeared in front of him.

deto——

【Witchcraft·Ignition】

A bright red light wave spread out rapidly.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

This wave of "puppet bombs" that fell from the sky exploded one after another in mid-air without hurting the bastion at all. It was many times better than the defensive barrier used by the priest of "Eternal Flame".

Just as the wizards who came to the upper level of the bastion cheered and rejoiced that the chief had countered the opponent's alchemy bomb with a simple witchcraft.

Ai Wen's face remained unchanged, and he raised his hand again.

Rumble.

The hundreds of earth dragons under the soil seem to be the tracks left by torpedoes when they burst into the water. The scope of application of the "puppet bomb" is obviously not only in the sea and air, but also in the ground.

The breath of destruction enveloped the hearts of all wizards.

This kind of momentum, which seemed to swear to bury the entire high cliff in one go, made all the evil alchemists feel their scalps explode and their faces changed.

"Shadow creature, alchemy bomb, who provoked this enemy?"

"How many alchemy bombs have you prepared? How much will it cost?"

"Can't MD afford it?!"

It's true that people are sitting at home, and disasters come from all directions.
