Chapter 211 Blooming in many directions
Chapter 211 Blooming in many directions
(4k words long chapter)
The change in the entire battle situation first appeared when the iron bird was preparing to land on the floating island.
A huge hand emerged from the dark hole at the bottom of the base of the floating island.
Abes also immediately thought of the giant.
Before this, Abes had encountered two giants.
A giant that spewed black water and produced undead creatures under the great cemetery outside the east gate of the royal capital was suppressed and sealed using the statue base of one of his brave teammates;
The other one was a lizard giant that could continuously absorb vitality and strengthen itself. Together with General Paddy, they held it back. Finally, they used magic grenades to blow it up until only its head was left, which they placed in their own protected space.
The situation now is exactly the same as when we encountered the giant that day.
No, it should be said that the situation may be even more critical!
After all, when dealing with the giant in the Undead Factory that was spitting black water, he had the assistance of several mages from the Mage Tower, and that guy had basically no active consciousness and combat ability.
The main trouble is that he has the ability to turn even ordinary things like sand and stone into undead creatures.
When dealing with the Lizard Giant, General Paddy and his officers fought desperately to delay time, allowing Abes to call on a large number of magic grenades and grenadiers trained effectively by Gaviling.
But now, what can Abes do about a giant hiding in the floating island of the Mage Tower?
There will be no more help from the wizard or General Paddy, because he is the only force left in the royal capital where the entire battlefield is located.
There will be no chance to use magic grenades or other iron and fire things, because weapons that can attack as high as the sky have not yet been developed.
The magic cannon in Abes's hand is nothing more than a catapult with greater range and accuracy, plus a bomb made using the same principle as a grenade.
If you want to fire directly upwards and hit the target, the requirements are still not met.
Without help, he would no longer have the help of the various new weapons that he was proud of building.
This led to a conclusion: the only ones who could fight against those crises, apart from the air force fighters that he had selected and trained with great difficulty, were the spellcasters who had the ability to fly...
"Damn it!"
The high maneuverability of the iron bird I designed is used to deal with spell formations and cannon shells, not to deal with giants.
Some people may think that giant creatures are often slow, but Abes, who has dealt with them personally, knows very well that these giants that appear without a head or tail are not slow at all.
More importantly, the giant he encountered was not a simple giant...
The North once had a long friendly history with a branch of giants, the cloud giants.
I am very familiar with and understand the cloud giants.
This is also the reason why, when the group of mages saw themselves fighting with the "giant figure" underground in the cemetery, they chose to help the giant figure attack themselves first.
However, whether it was the Cloud Giant or any other type of giant, Abes never knew that they could transform sand and stone into undead creatures; or absorb vitality and use it to strengthen their own appendages.
And if the huge figure hiding in the floating island of the Mage Tower also has corresponding troublesome abilities...
Not to mention Abes's followers, even the entire royal capital might be in danger.
----------
But things are far from over.
Since it is blooming in many directions, the shock of just one giant is not enough. Some other intentional or unintentional arrangements also broke out at this time.
Therefore, the second, third, and even fourth and fifth surprises are ready to follow at any time!
For example, old Winston's actions.
Just as the giant's hand appeared, a gleam of light flashed in old Winston's eyes. He seemed to touch the straitjacket on his wrist unintentionally, and then shook it gently. The straitjacket seemed to be instantly stretched open by some force and slipped off his body.
Old Winston, who was supposed to be controlled by the straitjacket, actually freed himself from it easily at this moment.
The magical light that flashed across his fingertips explained the reason behind it.
"The seal has been broken. How could this happen? How could I not feel it?"
Hiruga tried frantically to sense her own sealing technique, but the magic power she drove out was like a drop in the ocean.
"Giant, and the invalidation of the seal, so this is the surprise he gave me..."
A bright green light flashed in old Winston's eyes...
As an extremely powerful transcendent of the same level as Hyonagi, Abes and others, it is obvious that he can keep his brain clear by simply applying a little bit of magic power.
But - old Winston gave up resisting this force and instead gave his heart and soul to it with all his heart.
"You're right. I accept your deal. Take it. Go ahead and take it!"
After finishing his incoherent soliloquy, old Winston finally received the "reward" for his loyalty.
It was an instantaneous filling of magical power, which brought with it an even stronger feeling of oppression.
Afterwards, he also enthusiastically condensed the magic power in his hands into black lightning.
However, this time it was not just lightning, but the lightning was shaped into a certain clear weapon shape.
"Come on, little frost bitch! Let's finish the unfinished battle!"
Looking at the bright green energy in old Winston's eyes and his fighting method of forming magical energy into weapons, Abes finally remembered where he had seen this scene before.
"Goddess!" Abes shouted angrily. Even though he did not use rage, he felt his own anger at the first moment and understood why the original anger could burn out such powerful combat power.
Bright green energy emerged from his eyes, and he was able to shape the energy into weapons for fighting. Wasn't this the performance of those strange goblins who claimed to be believers of "the Supreme God" that he encountered below Tianye Town?
Later, because these strange goblins were too terrifying, he made a bear goblin, Kurgei, become a warrior under his command.
It was also because of the deal between that celestial being and the orcs' god, the one-eyed god Gruumsh, that he was teleported to the underground of the Great Cemetery by the orc bandits and almost died in the continuously produced sea of undead creatures.
Then, after that, Abes arrived at the gates of the royal capital and almost died in the attack on the royal capital;
After that, while looking for the feedback from the scout team, Abes was looking for where the Lizardmen troops, who were almost killed and collapsed by the dragon's breath, were hiding in the area under his jurisdiction, when he saw the bright green energy again.
And this time, Shangshang Tianren even performed a big trick right in front of him, allowing Abes to see how an ordinary, old lizard man was transformed into a powerful lizard giant.
Later, during a special operation against Ravenhold, Abes learned the result of the deal between the Supreme Being and Gruumsh.
That is, the soldiers under General Paddy either died in the battle royale or fell into incurable madness, forcing Abes to lose the elite military resources that he should have obtained.
Abes himself was also caught by the one-eyed god Gruumsh during the battle to climb the city. He injected a trace of madness into his body, causing Abes to now not dare to use rage wantonly.
The longest one recently lasted only twenty-three seconds, and it stopped immediately after rescuing Matthew and the Minqin warriors in the out-of-control iron bird.
And now, the hand of that supreme being reached out to the prisoner old Winston, who was under his careful care, without anyone noticing, allowing old Winston to break free from the seal and gain even more powerful strength.
If my guess is correct, then the giant hand that crawled out of the cannon in the Mage Tower was most likely his work.
And such a stroke of pen...
Hatred, anger, and unwillingness seemed to be about to break through Abes's psychological defenses at any time.
----------
In short, with old Winston's sudden outburst, the air around him seemed to condense at this moment, and the surrounding space seemed to be trembling slightly.
The people around Abes, who were originally paying attention to the movements in the sky, immediately turned their focus to old Winston.
All that remains is a suffocating feeling of oppression.
But then, some other "blooms" appeared, distracting their attention again.
"I've already said it, it's blooming on many sides!"
As if to echo old Winston's mumblings, the sound of an explosion was heard from the direction of the military camp.
Next, it was Anivia, the blonde double-helix half-elf, who flew away in an embarrassed manner.
"It's the prisoners. I don't know what happened to them..."
Anivia's shout made the already tense atmosphere even more tense, and everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Her clothes were blown messy by the wind, and her blonde hair was scattered over her face, covering part of her frightened eyes.
As for Abes and Hiiragi, they immediately re-locked on old Winston.
Because he is a dangerous fighter, a powerful fighter at the same level as them, it is not a wise choice to keep him out of sight.
not to mention……
Bing Nagi was the first to question, "Prisoners, this old man is also one of the prisoners. If he is unsealed, he can easily make the prisoners make trouble by using some magic."
However, old Winston refused to take the blame.
"Don't put everything on me. The gentleman told me that the prisoners were making trouble because of a few extraordinary people."
Among the prisoners, the extraordinary ones except old Winston?
After being reminded, Abes and Hiiragi were the first to recall.
Weren’t the wanderers who attacked them in the Slime City just a few extraordinary people?
However, there are also differences among the extraordinary people, and Abes and Hiiragi quickly controlled them.
Afterwards, in order to find out more about them and the Breland family, they were also put into the prison in the royal capital.
Abes would certainly not be so stupid as to not guard against the extraordinary people, so they naturally have the same seal on their bodies.
Obviously...it's another celestial being.
Since He could help old Winston unblock, He could also help others unblock.
"That gentleman said that although the skills of these guys are a little bit low, they are enough to cause chaos."
Old Winston's smile became more and more crazy, and Abes felt more and more uneasy.
This is the truth.
When those wanderers joined forces, only Abes and Hiiragi remained fearless.
As for the others around him, Philip who had already entered the barbarian rank, Adechi the warlock who could turn fossils into mud, and his own functional druid who advocated liberation, were no match to them.
It is absolutely enough to cause chaos.
The giant inside the cannon, the unsealed old Winston, and the extraordinary wanderer team belonging to the Breland family, each of these is tricky enough, and when they appear at the same time, they are definitely qualified to put pressure on Abes.
only--
"It's not over yet. Let me represent that person's final arrangement and make a wonderful announcement!"
Like the host of a ball, old Winston raised his hand and pointed to the sky, to the heavens.
Is it...the direction of the Mage Tower?
Is there going to be any unusual movement in the Mage Tower?
"No, no, no, it's another gift!!"
Finally, on the side of the wizard tower, some old Winston-like things emerged.
Climb up high and look far away. No, you don’t need to climb up high and look far away to see clearly.
First, a few wisps of black smoke rose from the burning building of the Mage Tower on the floating island, and then the mages like black dots scattered around and used their own methods to escape, such as flying magic or flying pets, as well as various means of floating and staying in the air.
At this time, a dark creature with wings finally appeared behind the Mage Tower, and then circled low over the center of the royal capital.
Dragon!
It's a dragon attack!
The dragon is attacking the wizard's tower and seems to be about to attack the royal capital!
Judging from the description of its appearance and the bright colors, it is most likely the dragon that appeared in the Lizardman attack.
Once, its breath saved the towns and villages around Sweetleaf from being infested by Lizardmen.
It was also it that, for some unknown reason, saved General Paddy, who was about to be captured by Abes.
Just now...
From the eyes of the huge, dark, winged figure drooped pools of bright green mist the color of swamp gas.
When the bright green light mist falls on the ground, it is as big as a small house. After landing, it will spread a lingering poisonous mist of about fifteen to thirty feet at the landing point.
Not only does it have a visual blocking effect, it also causes toxic damage.
The scene of the light mist falling from the dragon's eyes was like tears flowing from the dragon.
no doubt……
It has become part of the means and plans of the Supreme Being.
I just don't know whether it was voluntary or forced.
On its head, there was a human figure standing.
Because of the distance, I can't see it clearly at the moment.
Abes did not waste his magic to use Eagle Eye to see. With a powerful enemy at hand and many troubles to deal with, he would not waste a ring to get information that he was sure to get.
Anyway, after a while, when the other party gets closer, he will be able to see everything clearly.
Abes was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and his eyes became firm.
No matter how fierce the enemy's attack was, he knew that what they needed to do now was to deal with the crisis at hand.
"Everyone, get ready for battle!" Abes shouted loudly, his voice still echoing loudly.
This is Abes's reaction to the troubles that are blossoming on many sides.
