From Witcher to Lord of the Empire

The sea area east of the City of Golden Towers.

The waves are rough.

A fleet of huge dragon ships suppressed the turbulent ups and downs and walked on flat ground amid the waves.

This is an extremely strange fleet. Except for the dozen or so sloops used for escort, the rest are all huge transport ships.

At a glance, these ships may not be carrying nearly ten thousand people, and some small countries may not be able to move to other countries.

Griffins took off from the surrounding frigates, soared in the air and then fell back, driving away the harpies and Hekna who heard the wind. They are actually guarding this fleet.

What's even more weird than this fleet is the wind in this sea area. The turbulence that scares all offshore fishermen is pampering to this fleet. The sails of each huge transport ship are fully swollen in the direction they are heading. , the wind direction did not even deviate from the course in the slightest.

Mossak led a group of druids in rough leather robes and muttered words on the bow of the flagship, controlling the weather.

East held the [Dusk] sword at his waist and crossed him, using his right hand to build a canopy on his forehead.

The King of the Islands stared at the sky in the distance, where a huge teleportation array was gradually lowering its height. Its outline is gradually obscured by the cliffs and mountains along the coastline, but through the edges of those rugged rocks, you can still see the aurora-like ribbons emanating from the portal.

Not only East, but everyone within a ten-mile radius can see this spectacle, and the residents of the Golden Tower City directly below bear the brunt.

Their moods vary.

"It's so beautiful. Is this magic?" East sighed sincerely. "I really should let Geralt's poet friend sing a song here, or let Alice draw a painting based on this scene."

"It will definitely become a masterpiece that will be passed down from generation to generation!"

Mossack shook his head after listening to East's words: "The beauty of magic is not in this aspect. But it is undeniable -"

When he thought of the Golden Tower City below the portal, and what was on the other side of the portal, the old druid couldn't help but sigh sincerely:

"It's really beautiful."

East was recognized and nodded happily: "It's a pity that the view is blocked by those cliffs, so I can't see what will happen soon - Kratz, blow the trumpet!"

"Adjust the direction, get as close to the coastline as possible, and shorten the straight-line distance to the City of Golden Towers."

"We need to give the warlocks some teleportation magic to save as much mana as possible!"

Before he finished speaking, bright emerald-colored spots suddenly lit up around him.

Lan stepped out, smiled at East and Mossack, and slapped the ground, and dozens more light spots were lit around him.

The unicorns who had used the bitter meat trick and had their injuries treated by the Ain El clan appeared one after another.

Lann just made a trip to the Land of Armor, and specially used the [Teleport] and [Travel] skills to repeatedly combine them to bring them back to this world, so as to avoid Avallac'h finding something wrong and killing them to vent their anger and strip them of materials.

"Are these... a few 'bits'?" East paid attention to the wording and looked at the unicorns curiously and restrainedly, "Thank you for your help."

[Ancient Blood is right, we have a common enemy. 】

The voice sounded directly in East's mind, causing the King of the Islands to be surprised again.

Lan looked around at the fleet, turned around and asked, "Is there no problem with the battle on the front line?"

Mossak took over the conversation: "It's not much different from when you left - Nilfgaard has long been exhausted by our battles, and now Vesekid is in charge of the overall situation. He has fully reduced the defense line and no longer launches Attack is what the Southerners want."

"We can therefore squeeze out this force to carry out this operation. The departure of the troops did not attract the attention of any southerners. And after our side completely destroys the Golden Tower City, Vesekid will be in chaos when the enemy's military morale is It’s time to use the remaining troops to launch a general attack.”

"We can also cooperate with their actions from the rear and completely tear apart the nest in the south." East sighed, "Everything is about to end."

Lan nodded.

Exaggerated light began to appear in the corners of the mountains, and occasionally there were storms and lightning. The battles of the Ain El clan are not limited to swords, but the defensive strength of the Golden Tower City, as the capital of the empire, is also second to none.

I heard from Fringilla that the empire's magic research institute is in the Golden Tower City, and there are many warlock troops stationed to maintain logistics. They should all be engaged in battle now.

"Are we going to face a completely destroyed city of golden towers?" East suddenly asked Lan.

Lan shook his head. He had already obtained information from the unicorn.

"Ain El allowed magic to take root in military equipment, but it only popularized foreign objects such as alchemy equipment. And the ability to cast spells is just not good, so at most they are just a group of elite soldiers with particularly good equipment. In One-on-one, he's probably about the same as an elite demon hunter who hasn't undergone the second mutation."

Lan thought for a while and added: "A rich demon hunter who doesn't know how to sign."

"Those are also legion-level demon hunters. They are powerful enough without the seal." East sighed sincerely.

"But after being trapped in the world for so many years, their resources have been concentrated on the research and development of space shuttles. Only the remaining 10,000 royal guards have this kind of power, and the remaining soldiers do not have this level of power. An outpouring of resources.”

"Even for the royal guards, the equipment they currently have may have lost its strength due to lack of maintenance."

Lan shook his head, turned around, and signaled the messenger to blow the trumpet: "It's almost time to fight now. We have to start taking action before the elves react and prepare to retreat!"

"Woo——" the melodious trumpet sounded.

In response to the sound of the trumpet, in the next second, one portal after another opened behind Lan, and one after another warlock stepped out of it.

There are Triss and Yennefer who have been familiar with it for a long time, as well as Tisaya, Keira, etc. who were absorbed after the city of Aretuza was broken three years ago.

At a glance, there are nearly twenty royal advisor-level warlocks, including stronger high-level warlocks like Tisaya, Yennefer, and Triss.

Behind them, more former Arethusa warlock students and students from the original class of Ade Magic Academy who had mastered teleportation spells appeared one after another.

Even if there are still a large number of warlock students who are not suitable for the battlefield remaining in Cintra, the number of spellcasters here has already exceeded one hundred.

This is Lann's warlock unit!

"Get ready for action. All students will stay and wait for our signal to open the portal together." Lan glanced at them and said, "Ace, you will be responsible for commanding them."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the attendant shouted excitedly. He knew what he was about to get involved in, and there was nothing but enthusiasm in his eyes at the moment.

"As for you... just come with me to explore the road first." Lann looked at Triss and the others.

Lan closed his eyes and saw that the several marks he had placed in the Golden Tower City were all close together at this moment.

【Teleport】

——

With a "boom" sound, the dust particles above the head flew down under the huge impact.

Maybe a building fell on top of him, or something huge stepped on him. But no matter what, Fringilla knew that the battle on the ground was definitely not something that she and others should participate in.

Immediately after opening the huge portal, Fringilla used a small teleportation magic to bring herself, three vampires and a unicorn to the basement of the city.

The mansions of the vampire nobles were reduced to ashes immediately after the arrival of the Ain El elves, but this basement was able to protect them temporarily.

It's not that she doesn't want to escape, but she knows that her mission is not over yet.

A bright emerald light spot lit up around Fringilla, startling the astonished vampires.

The sorceress breathed a sigh of relief.

Lann's voice emerged from it, and Fringilla bowed respectfully to Lann: "Your Majesty Lann."

"Take me to the place I asked you to find, and the plan continues."

Without further ado, Fringilla heard this and cast teleportation magic again, leading everyone to another corner on the edge of the city.

With a "boom", before they landed, Lan opened his defense first.

[Quen Sign·Active Shield·Quen Strengthening·Quen Release]!

An elf soldier flying from nowhere hit Lann's protective shield like a rag bag. An equal amount of impact was transmitted from the protective shield to the elf soldier's body at the same time, and multiple forces tore at him. The body of the elf soldier directly smashed his body into pieces.

Lann looked towards the place where the elven soldiers were flying over, and saw a group of crossbowmen staring in his direction dumbfounded. There was also a very familiar Fire Scorpion ballista next to them.

Oh, so it turns out that the elf soldier just now still had a crossbow on his body?

【flash】

Lane disappeared and reappeared without a trace of blood on him.

He turned around and saw that the place where Fringilla teleported was supposed to be a villa, but it was now in ruins.

"How's it going?" He asked Flingilavige, who was looking at the ground.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. This place has been destroyed." The sorceress lowered her head. "The carved magic circle is completely unusable, but the magic materials stored here can still be used to help with the use of magic."

Lan's task for Fringilla was to store spellcasting auxiliary materials and carve magic circles throughout the Golden Tower City.

However, given the current chaotic situation in the Golden Tower City, most of the buildings used to hide the magic circle and materials will probably be smashed.

"Fortunately, we have more than one place to prepare," Fringilla said.

The teleportation magic was connected again, and the positions of several people were transferred one after another.

After four transfers, they finally arrived at a villa that had not yet been affected.

Lann nodded with satisfaction. If their luck is so bad that all the magic circles are destroyed, things will be a lot more troublesome soon.

【Teleport】

Lan tapped the ground, and the warlocks headed by Tisaya suddenly appeared here. Then he opened the protective shield again, firmly protecting the warlocks inside.

"Everyone, you can start."

…

It is not without reason that the noble class in the north has always despised warlocks.

In a sense, warlocks are really not good at fighting. They are more like a group of "scholars" who study magic than "warriors".

They learn how to control chaotic energy, which extends to various fields such as biology and physics, and they develop various magics. The so-called "killing spells" are just incidental to these studies, and only a small number of warlocks can master them. Learn specialized spells that have direct lethality.

Because these spells are likely to backfire on the caster due to neglect of control.

The pampered warlocks rarely delve into combat, which leads them to often die in some funny ways: such as stray arrows, or the killer's dagger.

But now, a group of well-prepared warlocks are gathered here. They are in the center of the enemy, protected by people, and have sufficient casting materials and even magic circles to provide chaotic energy.

They started casting spells.

An Ain El Elf Legion Commander suddenly felt a drastic change in the energy around him.

A portal suddenly opened next to him, but what came out was not a person, but a huge boulder carrying terrifying wind pressure!

The leader of the Elf Legion roared and used teleportation spells to avoid the stone, but the guards around him were not so lucky and were all crushed into mincemeat.

The angry Elf Legion Commander looked around, and sure enough he found a trebuchet on the wall not far away. At this moment, the surrounding gunners were reloading the trebuchet with stone bullets. A warlock opened the portal on the only way the stone bullets must pass, and was muttering in his own direction.

Sure enough, another portal appeared in front of him.

Damn it! What kind of city is this? Why are there so many large siege equipment and warlocks inside? Why are we here? !

The stone bullets just fired from the gun mount were enough to shatter a building. At this moment, with the help of the warlock, this force was heading towards this side through the portal without any reduction in gravity!

Damn it! There's no way to hide!

The head of the Elf Legion's eyes were about to burst.

However, in the next second, a bolt of lightning with astonishing power fell from the sky, piercing the stone bullet directly and smashing it to pieces!

Boom!

No, this is no longer lightning, but a substantial thunder pillar! The dazzling light even made the Elf Legion Commander's eyes feel burning!

However, before he could get into the mood of surviving the disaster, another beam of lightning came, this time on his head.

Boom!

He and his armor were all reduced to ashes, and the trebuchets and gunners not far away followed closely and received the same treatment.

The sky became covered with clouds within two breaths, and the sun seemed to be swallowed up, giving out no light at all. The twisted thunder snakes shuttled between the clouds, blending with each other until they expanded to an extent that the clouds could not bear, and then crashed down!

Boom!

More than twenty northern warlocks gathered together, shouting magic spells like carols, and the magic circle on the ground emitted light that was not weaker than thunder and lightning.

There are no less than ten magic gems embedded in each node of this magic circle!

There are countless such formations in the Golden Tower City. Even if the runes used for communication are destroyed, the material itself can still communicate the magic and become a part of the thunder and lightning in the sky.

This was performed by more than twenty high-level warlocks - [Arzu Thunder Technique]!

Boom! ! ! ! !

The sky is covered with dark clouds, but the Golden Tower City under the dark clouds still shines like daylight!

…

Offshore, the sky is clear.

All the clouds in a radius of twenty miles seemed to be sucked away by the small area above the Golden Tower City.

The lightning reflected in East's eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful!"
