309 Cloud Catch
Catherine's original plan wasn't complicated. She led her legion to the door on her own initiative, and used the most direct method to force the barbarian overseer of the Third Expeditionary Force to come out and meet her. And the reasons are all ready-made, because Catherine sheltered the sheep of the Neutral Legion, resulting in the death of his dragon lice warriors. Of course, the barbarian warrior who did it against the sheep must be captured first. Although the Overseers are not sure, it was the barbarians from the Third Expeditionary Force who attacked the sheep.
The smoke in the sky was gathering more and more, and they seemed to be brewing something. Until now, Catherine still couldn't tell what the effect of this large witchcraft was. She waited, watched, guessed. There are many kinds of witchcraft, such as exorcism, which is equivalent to a kind of protective magic, such as the power of totem, which is used to enhance the physique of the caster, and such as sΓ©ance, filth, etc., can be found in similar magic and divine magic. And this witchcraft in front of me is a little unbelievable.
But the answer won't have to wait long to be revealed.
From the far center of the world, in the direction of the Thunderbolt of the Sky, a huge object flew faintly. It seemed to be slow but fast, and it quickly caught Catherine's attention.
Cloud?
Catherine narrowed her eyes and looked around for a moment, recognizing that it was a large, flat bone, a cloud floating in the sky in the Silver Dragon King's spirit world.
It had been a few days since the last time the Dog Legion's Evil Star had disappeared, and there had been no sign of the clouds in the past. Catherine had almost forgotten that there was such a strange thing in this world.
The cloud flew towards the growing ring of smoke in the sky. No, perhaps it should be said that the smoke ring is constantly adjusting its position. Stuck in the line where the clouds are going to drift.
What would be the result of the encounter between a ring of smoke produced by large-scale sorcery and a strange floating skeleton?
Catherine waited silently, watching the cloud of bones drift closer and closer. The ring of smoke grew thicker and thicker, swelling and wriggling in midair, like a giant beast desperately trying to break free from its shackles. The object it wants to devour is the floating skeleton that flies straight in. The giant beast straightened up, opened its mouth wide, and bit down on the oncoming bone cloud. The two behemoths collided in midair, and the Ring of Smoke slammed into the bone cloud.
There was a "boom", and the heavens and the earth trembled. The floating bones made a loud noise. The golden trampled the horse's hooves in a panic. Nearly knocked Catherine off her horse.
Catherine simply jumped off her horse, and she looked up at the sky. The bone cloud was struggling forward like a living thing, but the Ring of Smoke had tightened it. The pillars of smoke that stretched to the ground pulled downwards together, and the skeleton was slowly dragged to the ground.
It turned out that this large witchcraft was used to catch the clouds floating in the sky. Catherine gasped. Such a scale and a prestige. This makes this sorcery seem close to or even comparable to the power of altar magic. However on the eastern continent. Altar magic has long since disappeared into the dust of history. In other words, there are still large-scale spells that can be called miracles on the Western Continent, which makes it a little difficult for the female magicians of the Eastern Continent who think that their magical civilization has been quite developed.
Catherine was shocked by what she found. As a magician cultivated by the Eastern Continent's magic system, she realized that the entire Eastern Continent magic community may not know "what witchcraft is" at all. The female mage made up her mind that the next time she had the opportunity to contact Master Griggs again, she would definitely tell Master and her teacher Quisling this important information.
The bone cloud was pulled by the thick smoke and fell unwillingly to the ground.
"Why are they arresting this cloud?" Catherine asked the old dog beside her.
"Overseer, it's hard to fathom. The old dog's answer was not unexpected.
"Didn't your Lord Scorn have such an idea?"
"This is beyond the power of Lord Evilstar. I've never heard that these clouds can be captured this way. β
"If the Evil Star knew that the clouds could be captured, would he still go to the clouds?" Catherine laughed suddenly, "I'm very curious now to see what lies on these mysterious clouds." β
Catherine rolled over and rode on gold, and drove slowly towards the barbarians' gathering place. The old dog and the Siggy demons immediately followed.
In fact, as the bone cloud fell, the barbarians' firewood pyres burned out. The flames gradually died out, and only a small amount of smoke still drifted away. One by one, the barbarians lay on the ground, and there was no movement. When Catherine got closer, she found that the barbarians had no signs of life.
The Overseer walked around the gathering with her dogs, convinced that the barbarians were dead. This is a typical sacrifice, that is, the price paid for performing large witchcraft.
"Go and get the army leaders to set out. Catherine ordered, "Let's go and grab that cloud." β
The barbarians spent so much money to capture this bone cloud, and it was clear that the bone cloud itself was an extremely important thing. Catherine didn't mind, and took the opportunity to get the good stuff first.
Driven by the military leaders, the army of dragon lice marched towards the place where the bone cloud fell. And Catherine took the lead, under the protection of the Siggy Demon. Her instincts told her that the barbarians probably did not expect that the great sorcery that would cost them so much this time. Most of them didn't have time to carry away the falling bone clouds.
Sure enough, after walking for about an hour, Catherine saw a hill-like skeleton appear in front of her. The hill was deserted, and the barbarians did not seem to have arrived.
"Overseer, wait for the troops behind. The old dog then suggested to Catherine, "These clouds are a bit strange, and Lord Evil Star has disappeared since he ascended the clouds." β
Catherine asked the gold to stop, just watching from a distance. With her eyesight, she could already see that there was a dense forest growing on the bones. Forest means wood, soil, and there may be animals and birds living in the forest. This is a completely different geographical form from this world, and the terrain is full of life.
Looking at the forest, Catherine became a little irritable. She realized as if she had missed some key information, the floating skeletal clouds, the forests on the clouds, the barbarians' big witchcraft, catching the clouds, these things seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember them for a moment.
Catherine closed her eyes and forced herself to be still. She struggled to recall the various books she had read in the past, searching for the contents of them. Finally, it dawned on the female mage that she had found the answer. (To be continued.) )
