On the Seven Towers

Watching the war angels led by Sariel using the weapons of the God of War, fighting hard with the great magicians and knights surrounded by vines and flowers, Gabriel said: "Don't watch, all Sariel can do is delay for a while. Let's go first, Anar, Muriel is sorting out the books and equipment, and will leave from the teleportation array later."

Ye Zi watched the war angels being wrapped by vines and then died under the sword and axe magic. While feeling sympathetic, she couldn't help but admire Gabriel's decisiveness. She could feel that the war angel in front of her had no fear of fighting, but was filled with grief and resentment. He was eager to rush down and fight side by side with them. But he suppressed all these emotions and was calmly controlling the magic array.

The teleportation array that Gabriel mentioned covered the entire floor of the room, and the core of the magic array was a silver longbow embedded in the ground. This artifact originally belonged to a demigod archer under the command of the God of War, who could break through all spatial barriers and reach the target directly. After his death, the divine bow was collected by the war angels, but no inheritor qualified to use it was found. So at the beginning of the establishment of the Tower of Brilliant Wings, the war angels of that generation made it into a very powerful teleportation array.

Gabriel took out a few crystals from the storage ring and placed them on the energy points of the array. He closed his eyes and felt it and said: "The Cross-Boundary Bow has just been opened, and the stored magic power is far from the best state. The enemy's space blockade has also greatly limited the teleportation distance of this array. In order to allow the people behind to get out of here, I must put the teleportation point close enough. After you go out from here, you should appear in a block not far from the Royal Magic Tower. Don't stop at all, leave here immediately and try to meet up with the people in the China Tower Office. Then find a way to get out of the city and go to the Chinese territory. Miss Ye Zi, I need your help here."

Ye Zi said seriously: "Sir Gabriel, the Tower of Brilliant Wings has a great connection with me and has helped me a lot. I will definitely find a way to let the China Tower accept you."

"Very good, you won't be disappointed." Gabriel said.

"What about you?" Mei asked.

"I will teleport out after you, and then try to attract the attention of some enemies in the city. This way, you will have a better chance of sneaking out with the others. Don't worry about me, their main force is still fighting Sariel, and the enemies outside may be easier to deal with." Gabriel saw the magic arrays start to activate one by one, and asked the other three to stand in the middle of the magic array.

"We have to agree on a gathering place, right?" Mei asked anxiously.

"If we can all escape successfully, we will meet in Black Mountain or on the way to Black Mountain. Remember, you must be decisive on the road, and don't give anyone who uses old friendships to hinder your progress a chance!"

Mei nodded heavily, and then the three of them disappeared in the middle of the activated magic array.

——————————————

Outside the Chinese office, Luo Ling stepped onto the shaft of the carriage and sat next to Li Tianrui.

"Let's go!" She gave a clear command, and three carriages galloped out of the city. These were the last seventeen people in the Chinese representative office. After receiving Liu Pengfei's warning, Luo Ling did not hesitate and made a decisive decision to retreat.

"After you leave the city, go directly to school overnight, don't stop and wait for me." Luo Ling said.

"Team leader Luo, let me go with you. After all, I am about to reach the middle-level magician now." Li Tianrui said.

"And me, I have investigated so many Tianwang capitals, and it is impossible for anyone among you to be more familiar with the environment of the capital than me. If we need to avoid pursuers, I know many small roads to get rid of them. If we need to hide temporarily, I can also quickly find a suitable refuge."

"The fewer people who support Ye Zi, the better, so that it is not easy to attract the attention of the enemy. But Katarina's ability can indeed provide various help, count you in. Li Tianrui can't go, your task is to safely escort the staff here to Black Mountain."

"Okay."

Under the effect of acceleration magic, the convoy was more than twice as fast as normal. We galloped all the way to the city gate on the sparsely populated streets at dusk. However, from a distance, the city gate had closed, leaving only a small opening for people returning to the city.

In the past, a small team of soldiers guarded the city gate, but now there were more than a hundred people waiting in full battle array. Seeing the three carriages coming, the leading officer raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him raised their spears and crossbows. These people looked neat and disciplined, very different from the city defense army, and they were actually the guards responsible for the safety of the palace.

"Her Royal Highness has ordered that the city gates be closed tonight, and no one is allowed to pass!" said the officer of the guards.

"Team leader Luo, this situation is difficult to deal with!" Li Tianrui said while holding the reins, "Although it seems that there are not many strong men, if we force our way in, I'm afraid our losses will not be small."

"You let everyone prepare for battle. We will use courtesy first and then force. I will try to "communicate" with the officer first. If it doesn't work, as soon as I make a move, Catalina will be ready to kidnap people." Luo Ling said.

"Okay." Catalina, who was sitting on the other side of Li Tianrui, picked up the whip and held it in her hand, then leaned forward slightly, ready to attack.

Li Tianrui gestured to the back, and the soldiers in the car behind either picked up their rifles or prepared to cast spells.

Luo Ling stopped the car and said to the officer from a distance in the car: "Come here."

The Royal Guard officer hesitated, but seeing Luo Ling in her robes and the March mark on her chest glowing, he came up and said, "Mister Magician? What do you want?"

"We are leaving the city on the orders of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Her Royal Highness the Princess did not say that she would issue any orders to leave the city."

"Did you know that there is a special operation outside the city tonight?"

"This... I don't know."

"This is Her Royal Highness the Princess's secret mission." Luo Ling spoke with a condescending tone, "Since you don't know, it means you are not qualified to ask."

"If there is no direct written order from Her Royal Highness the Princess, I may have to ask for instructions..." The Royal Guard officer hesitated.

"Listen, as a high-level magician, I don't have time to waste on you and let you delay the princess's mission. Even if I knock you down now, what does it matter? Do you think that with a small mid-level warrior like you, anyone will care about your life or death?" When saying this, Luo Ling released her mental power, and the Royal Guard officer suddenly felt that he was in a storm and could not muster any resistance at all. The soldiers behind him also felt this pressure, and their formation was temporarily disrupted.
