Mage? Spell Engineer!.

Chapter 591 Working together
The mages who stayed behind in the Tower of First Flame were all transformed into nutrients for the Mother Goddess to cultivate her minions. The holy First Flame was even polluted and degenerated into a sore on the earth that oozed pus.

In fact, the corresponding demigod "Fire Thief" had long been corrupted, and the monster "amniotic fluid" flowing out of the "fire" was precisely the sewage secreted by his rotting internal organs.

At this moment in the tundra, there was no great wizard to stop these "ground flies".

Their long limbs exert maximum speed as they sprint in all directions, using their sense of smell, hearing, and innate sensory abilities to search for all creatures on the main material plane.

Wherever they pass, plants rapidly mutate, with stems, leaves or roots swelling and releasing gray-black spores.

These spores will float in the air for a while as the monsters pass by like the wind, and then they will fall to the ground, killing more creatures and turning into black water like the current state of the Tower of First Fire.

The animals that didn't have time to run away were naturally eaten up after being caught up by the monster. There were also a few "lucky ones" who inhaled the spores that floated across the ocean before the monster arrived, and quickly decayed, releasing flying flies and insects from their wounds.

The mages from Istani's Magic Tower and the Tower of Time who arrived at the scene were unprepared for these monsters. Similar to the Saga, they found it difficult to control their will after hearing the shrill cries and the approaching pollution, and almost lost their ability to cast spells.

A small number of mages who were new to the game and connected to the spell cloud were able to miraculously resist the overwhelming howling. Their minds were dull at best, but with the spell cloud they could still launch quick attacks in an emergency.

They soon discovered that these abominations that had rushed into their world and threatened to destroy their homes were surprisingly tenacious.

Magic that kills with energy is not a problem unless the mouthparts or vents are focused, otherwise they can be repaired or protected by the exoskeleton.

Using kinetic energy to kill, such as shooting with enhanced guns, or the mages' own [Flying Arrow], will certainly cause short-term damage to the "ground fly", but the wounds on the monsters heal quickly.
Not only did it heal, it also proliferated. The thick tumors became buffer pads, and the tumors with a bag of pus could be considered reactive armor.

In short, mid- and low-level magic cannot break defense.

The mages fought and retreated, and some were bitten by ground flies if they were not careful. Then their bodies would change, and they might turn into new ground flies or spread fuel.

In short, the situation at the First Flame Tower was beyond the Magic Guild's expectations. The reinforcements from the Istani Magic Tower also retreated one after another until they reached the so-called "safe distance".

The chief of the Tower of Time used many precious alchemical tools. All of a sudden his whole body began to shine, with different auras radiating from it.

This time, more spellcasters broke free from the mental interference caused by the monsters' roars. The archmage once again gave everyone a signal and performed a large-scale spellcasting ceremony with them.

Everyone had an extra crystal in their hands, which was essential for the Tower of Time. They adjusted their directions so that the refracted light paths converged and shone onto the Chief of the Tower of Time.

They began to perform star magic, and even though it was still daytime, they forced their way through the ice field to allow the aurora and the stars to descend.

Whether it is the aurora that is like a ribbon, or the one with a tail that looks like a comet falling to the ground, they accurately find and cover the members of the army of ground flies.

They suddenly froze and suffered a lot of damage.

Considering there is a transmutation laminar flow between the main material plane and the astral plane, it is difficult to say what exactly was dropped, but at least it is useful.

Unfortunately, for many monsters, they are just a little bit away from being completely eliminated, and just that little bit away, they will heal and return before long.

Unless there is a military force that can destroy all of these things in one blow.

Well, maybe there really is one. A ring gradually emerged in the starry sky.

The chief master of the Tower of Time narrowed his eyes. As a member of the Arcane Senate, he certainly recognized what the ring in the air was - it was the super-large ring of the "ladder system"! It was the first ring of the airship, a high-altitude ring that relied on the reverse thrust engine to adjust its posture.

As expected, the ring steps lit up, but this time what came out were not aliens or aircraft heading for space, but rather distinctive airships. They sounded shrill alarms and descended directly.

It is very strange that the airship uses a portal, and the giant portal lasts for quite a long time, which means the transmission distance is not far.

The chief of the Tower of Time was a little confused until he saw the meaningless majestic horns on the airship, the brownish skin, and the cabin that looked like a North Sea speedboat.
It's the dwarven airship fleet! And the next level ring is nearby.

It seems that the cooperation between Byrne and the Dwarf Confederation is progressing rapidly, and even the ladder system can be replicated by them.

Good cooperation, at least now we are in urgent need of help.

The leader of the "ground flies", the winged creature, was enraged when he saw the airships that were much taller than himself, and regarded these dwarves in the sky as his mortal enemies.

The monster bent its hind legs and gathered strength, then kicked with all its might while frantically flapping its wings, trying to compete for flying height, climb onto the airship, and deal a fatal blow to the passengers inside.

After appearing, the dwarf airship dropped mithril alloy ropes from both sides of the cabin, and the chains were almost blown to the ground. The monsters were immediately excited and kept pulling and climbing on the ropes.

Will the airship be pulled off balance and flipped over by them? Will the leader be able to reach the airship itself by flapping his wings?

Impossible. Of course the dwarves would not let this happen.

After releasing the chains, the cluster of airships immediately began to take action - power on.
All are released in an extremely short period of time, and the ultra-high voltage currents rush down along good conductors, penetrating the air between each other, forming a power grid that is impossible to escape from.

"Oh, right, electricity. Lightning magic has special power against the monsters created by the Mother Goddess." This has been verified.

The situation was temporarily under control from being extremely bad, but the pollution center kept producing ground flies and releasing spores to swallow and spit out pollutants.
As long as the airships and mages stop, the balance will tilt towards the Mother Earth again because she has achieved continuous blood transfusion.

At this moment of anxiety, the ring steps flickered again instead of lighting up continuously, indicating that this transmission came from a very far place.

What fell this time were several rocket-like objects that were teleporting headfirst at high speed. They only slowed down slightly when they were about to hit the ground, resulting in them being half-embedded in the ground near the pollution source.

Those were air-dropped anti-magic devices. They were placed in solid shuttle-shaped vehicles and started working after being driven into the ground.

This is what Rorschach had been preparing since Oward. It is similar to the No. 1 bomb fired from the Imperial Cannon, but it is long-lasting and can be quickly dropped to a certain place in groups of six. Its own energy can last for month, and it can be replenished with transmutation dust fuel later.

After the device started operating, the most superficial spores and small flies began to fall and shrink, and the primary pollution faded away like ice and snow melting, revealing the devastated ground.

Within the coverage of the device, the monsters that were paralyzed by electricity lost the support of the Mother Goddess's power and fell to the ground in pain.
