This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 227 We won!

 Four huge meteorites broke through the thick dark clouds and fell from the sky.

 Seeing this desperate scene, even the Silver Moon Knight's eyes widened.

This is a real nine-level spell, Meteor Explosion. It is indeed a legendary mage of the plasticity system. The enhanced version of Ice Storm just now is also a magic spell of the plasticity system.

The Evocation School specializes in all powerful offensive spells. Fireball is their specialty, and Meteor Explosion is their signature spell.

Mages from this department also have a particularly outrageous ability—allies are unharmed.

  Mages of the evocation school can create a special magical space to protect their companions from their own magic.

In other words, no matter what large-scale spells they cast, they can throw them at will without fear of accidentally injuring friendly troops.

Four meteors fell, and not even the Silver Moon Knight could stop them. His sword might be able to cut the meteors open, but it couldn't stop them from falling. The effect of exploding into a meteor shower was even more terrifying.

After four muffled bang bang bang bang bang sounds, three meteors missed the target and hit the desert far away. The shock wave knocked away hundreds of people. This, but the last meteor hit the center of Lane's army.

 After the violent explosion, hundreds of Lane soldiers died on the spot, and countless others were injured.

From the blueprints obtained from the Alchemy City, the magic cannon uses strong wind pressure to accelerate the cannonballs. With a few modifications, the magic circle that creates the wind field can continuously emit strong winds.

But it doesn’t matter, Amber Xiu was not going to stop, and lightly patted the armrest of the Golden Throne, another large dark cloud gathered, and a heavy rain fell, giving the people of Lane a chill.

Before these paladins broke through the clouds, he put away the golden throne, moved a huge cannon barrel from his private space, and carried it behind him.

Just when Amberxiu was about to continue casting spells, the Ryan Legion finally flew out four rays of light and rushed towards Amberxiu.

Amberxiu pressed a switch, and the gun barrel behind him began to make a buzzing sound. Violent wind blew out from the mouth of the gun barrel, and Amberxiu felt a strong pulling force, which quickly brought him into the high altitude.

 Lane's legendary paladins finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to take action against Amber Xiu.

 “Come and see the effect of jet flight.”

And such elite Lane people have several legions, and the barrier will come as soon as possible.

 “But let’s see how long you can last!”

Amber Xiu sighed: "This Silver Moon Knight has a good eye. He knows that this barrier cannot stop the meteor explosion, so it was useless just now, but now it is just right."

 There are only a thousand people in the entire Raging Tide Kingdom who can jointly cast spells, and they must prepare in advance.

Amberxiu looked at it and couldn't help but say something awesome.

The casualties caused by this meteor explosion were more than the number of people killed by Lane in the past year.

Facing this situation, Amber Xiu made only one choice—to run away decisively.

The power of the meteor explosion is so terrifying that ordinary soldiers have no way to resist it. No matter how many defensive spells you add, they will only be crushed into mud by the huge meteorite and then exploded into fly ash.

The Silver Moon Knight ignored the rain on his body and said loudly: "Open the defensive barrier!"

Thunder of pure energy and burning meteors cause damage in completely different ways. The Silver Moon Knight is quite familiar with spells and his response is very precise.

Amber Xiu, who was hanging in mid-air, was not very satisfied with the result. Without the guidance of the dice of fate, only one of the four meteors hit. No wonder Meteor Explosion is called the Shame of the Nine Rings. The hit rate of this thing is really low. If you are fighting against others, this kind of spell will be completely useless.

The light priests who were busy rescuing the injured immediately put down their work, connected the power of the holy light together, and opened a huge holy light defensive barrier on the position.

This kind of battlefield group spellcasting is not something that ordinary armies can do. It not only requires the same source of power, but also requires long-term cooperation.

As soon as the barrier was opened, large thunderbolts fell from the sky, but these thunders were all blocked by the barrier, and the violent energy was conducted into the sand sea by the barrier, without causing any harm.

  The effect of the flying spell can only maintain a speed of fifty or sixty kilometers per hour. This is a limitation of the spell, and it is difficult for ordinary people to break through it. As for jet flight... Amberxiu has not tested it, but it is now estimated to be at least 300 kilometers per hour.

It’s not that the alchemists couldn’t think of this, but that no one could fly in the sky carrying such a thing. Flying naked at hundreds of kilometers per hour, even a barbarian would be blown off a layer of his skin in just a few minutes.

Even if a metal shell is added, this way of flying is still too dangerous, and the mortality rate is probably more than 70%. With something as convenient as the teleportation array, alchemists have no incentive to study such a dangerous method of flight.

Amboxiu's entire body is made of mithril. His body is strong enough. In addition, the Lich has a phylactery to protect him, so he dares to play with such a dangerous thing.

Those paladins also used flying skills to fly into the sky. In order to prevent Amberxiu from escaping, they also specially surrounded Amberxiu from all angles.

Who would have thought that before the encirclement was closed, Amberxiu would run away, and run so fast?

"What it is?!"

The Silver Moon Knight looked at the white turbulence in the night sky and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

 As a paladin who knows so much about magic, he is really well-informed, but Amberxiu's jet flight is still far beyond his imagination.

 What the **** is this? !

The Silver Moon Knights could only watch helplessly as Amberxiu continued to widen the distance, and no matter how hard they tried, they could not keep up.

Yue Hua's sword is ready, but the problem is that even the sword's light may not be able to catch up with this weird thing.

Another legendary paladin couldn't help but ask the Silver Moon Knight: "General, what should we do now?" "This... we chase it from a distance, that thing may not be able to fly very far."

The purpose of the Silver Moon Knight is just to prevent Amboxio from continuing to cast large-scale spells, so as not to cause greater losses to Ryan's army. It doesn't matter if Amboxio wants to run away, the result will be the same.

As the Silver Moon Knight spoke, a violent explosion was heard, and the turbulence in the distance suddenly exploded like fireworks.

Silver Moon Knight’s eyes widened, right? This makes him right?

Without any hesitation, Silver Moon Knight said loudly: "Chase!"

This is a good opportunity. It is safer to kill this mage than to expel him. He must be killed while he is unlucky.

The paladins hurriedly caught up, but the effect of the flying spell could not be changed manually, so they had the luxury of using the teleportation scroll multiple times.

These magic scrolls are all gold coins. They are usually used to save lives. I didn't expect that one day they would be used for hunting.

On the other hand, Amber Xiu is unfortunately floating in the air.

 His soul was buzzing because of the explosion just now.

Although I knew that the magic jet engine I modified was not that safe, I never expected that it would be scrapped in just over a minute. Fortunately, this body of mithril was strong enough. It only loosened a few parts, and a living person would have been shattered to pieces.

 Finally recovering, Amberxiu saw those rays of holy light chasing him in a flash.

Amberxiu recognized the effect of the teleportation scroll at a glance, and couldn't help but say: "Is it so luxurious? Ryan is really rich."

 After saying that, he opened his private space again, took out the second magic jet engine again, and buckled it on his back again.

 “Come on, I don’t believe I can’t last two minutes this time!”

Amberxiu pressed the switch and once again turned into turbulence and disappeared in front of the group of paladins.

　　Several legends of Ryan suddenly stopped and looked at each other in utter embarrassment.

The Silver Moon Knight was so angry that he gripped the hilt of his sword so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He extremely suspected that the explosion just now was intentional, just to trick them into using the teleportation scroll.

　　"Leave him alone, this man knows us too well, and every step we take is planned by him."

Silver Moon Knight really has no way to pursue him anymore, the battlefield below is more important.

Anyway, this guy flew far enough, and when he swung the second sword, he couldn't make it back.

Silver Moon Knight dived directly towards the ground, targeting the brightly lit Manna City.

Just like what the Silver Moon Knight said, Amberxiu flew too far, and this thing was not flexible enough to turn, so it was impossible to rush back to block the sword.

The Silver Moon Knight looked down at the city below, took a deep breath, and drew out the long sword from his waist.

A brilliant light that cannot be described in words condensed on the edge of his sword.

 The holy sword was raised high, and then dropped decisively.

The holy light swung out from the edge of the sword was like moonlight. It was initially only the size of a person, but it quickly expanded all the way down the moonlight, and finally became larger than the city of Manna.

The terrifying sword light split through the shattered city front position, leaving a deeper ravine than the previous heavenly warrior, and then continued to cut into the city wall of Manna City.

With one stroke of the sword, the entire Manna City was divided into two halves.

The intense holy light not only left a sword mark, but also penetrated deep into the city and emitted a violent explosion.

This sword blasted out a passage through Manlu City that ran through the entire city.

The Silver Moon Knight is very satisfied with his record. With this passage, who can stop the attack of Ryan's army?

However, just when the Silver Moon Knight wanted to command his troops to rush into Manna City, the majestic city in front of him shattered like glass, eventually turning into countless shining fragments and submerging into the yellow sand.

What kind of city is that? This is just a barren desert.

 “Illusion?!”

Silver Moon Knight felt a breath stuck in his chest. The sword he finally swung with all his strength actually struck an illusion? !

How could Manna City become an illusion? How did they create such a large-scale illusion?

  No illusion can do this, not even the legendary mage!

Silver Moon Knight felt his eyes go dark, opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and then fell towards the ground.

 The other paladins were startled, and regardless of the outcome of the war, they quickly picked up the Silver Moon Knight and flew away.

 It’s just a city of nectar. It doesn’t matter whether it can be captured or not. The Silver Moon Knight is the key. If anything happens to the pillar of the empire, that will be the biggest loss.

Looking at all the evacuated Ryan troops, Amberxiu, who arrived belatedly, said excitedly: "We won!"

 Face the threat from the Silver Moon Knights, they successfully defended the city!
