The dream-like blue color fills the sky.

Behind Charles, flashing summoning arrays emerge one after another, and out of them are the dreamlike creatures that should only be stored in legends; This is a life made purely of energy, it is between the physical and the non-corporeal, it exists in the material world and not in the material world, every moment, every minute and every second, they are always changing their properties and forms, and the visitors outside their borders are the etheric dragons.

They have the shape of a dragon, but they also have manta ray-like wings, and their bodies are transparent, like soft glass, suspended in the air, but this form is not stable, it is always changing, like a rainbow with a blue background.

One by one, the Cruz wizards stopped their spells, for they found that their spells had no effect on these strange creatures, which were themselves part of the energy, as if they did not exist in the present world, and the sharp lines of law, the irascible elemental magic tore through these fantastic creatures, but could not harm them in the slightest, as if they had struck an illusion that passed through their transparent bodies.

Everyone discovered this fact one by one, and their attacks could not hurt these 'dragons' in the slightest, and the entire battlefield gradually fell into a strange state of stillness, and the wizards, the soldiers of the Empire, all stopped in a daze, and looked at this qiē and this magnificent scenery with some silence.

But eventually someone realized what it was.

"These are ......"

"Aether Dragon ......"

"I didn't expect them to really exist, and the records of the Fanur people are not absurd legends."

The sorcerers whispered, passing on secret knowledge that only they knew about in private. However, the Imperial Commander above the Black Sword Barrier was furious, he was not interested in these so-called knowledge and legends at all, but the wizards left their posts without permission, which greatly reduced the firepower density over the battlefield for a while. He found the head of the wizards, pointed to the strange creatures and said loudly, "I don't care what they are, but now your task is to get them out of the way, and I don't want to see any of these messes on my walls!" ”

He threw a tantrum. only to find that the wizards were looking at him strangely. "What's wrong, did I say something wrong?"

"Those are the elves from the Aether, Your Excellency, they are symbols of pure energy in their own right, our spells cannot hurt them in the slightest, have you ever seen water droplets drowned in the ocean, not to mention that for us, they are the real ocean." The wizard leader replied politely.

The knight commander scratched his head: "I don't care which of you is a drop of water and who is an ocean, but you always have to sue me." How to deal with these things, right, I don't want my soldiers to die in vain. ”

"Your Excellency, you don't have to worry at all, if the Fanur people are not lying, the greatest characteristic of the Aether Dragons is that they exist in two worlds at the same time - their constantly changing energy forms maintain the connection between the Aether and the material world, and if you can't fight them in both realms at the same time, then your attack will not damage them in the slightest." The wizard leader looked at the beautiful creatures beyond the walls with an appreciative look, but the knight commander was clearly unhappy with his gaze. At least he thinks it shouldn't be looking at the enemy's gaze.

Of course, he didn't understand that the ether dragon was a symbol of mana. Their blue color became the color of the Buga flag, and although Buga was known as the Silver Alliance, their emblem was an eye on the turquoise sea, symbolizing the two poles of the mage world, knowledge and magic.

"Doesn't that mean I can't do anything about them, and we just surrender?" The knight commander replied angrily.

"Why do you say that, Your Excellency?" The wizard leader looked at the knight commander with a feigned surprise. But in the bottom of my heart, I was full of contempt for this poor man who knew nothing about the nature of the world.

"They can attack me, but we can't attack them, can this battle continue?"

"Your Excellency, I don't think you need to worry about that," the wizard leader smiled slightly, "The Aether Dragon is a fragile and beautiful creature. It's not as powerful as you might think, and while they may seem huge, it's just because the energy naturally diffuses in our world. And the strength of these creatures is actually very weak, although they represent the energy itself, but they cannot grasp the middle law, which is like saying that humans represent a kind of life, but they cannot manipulate life, just like this law, you and your soldiers cannot attack it, it is because it cannot attack you either. ”

The commander didn't understand it at all, but he at least understood the last sentence, and couldn't help but frown and ask, "Are you saying that these things don't have the ability to attack at all, so why did our opponent summon them out and pretend to be a ghost?" ”

"I'm afraid not, I mean, it's not that they can't attack you, but the realm of ether and the world of matter are parallel worlds, the two worlds do not affect each other, and if they want to affect our world, they must be converted to our world-"

"Wait, I see." The commander interrupted the self-righteous fellow and exclaimed, "You mean I can attack them when they switch into our world, right?" ”

The wizard leader looked at this guy with some surprise.

The knight commander couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, thinking to himself that these self-righteous guys, if he could, he wouldn't bother to deal with these god-like guys. However, he had one last question, and before leaving, he asked, "Mr. Wizard, since these things are so fragile, then the person who summoned them must not be able to do anything else, I think you should be able to deal with him, and don't let him do anything else." ”

But this time, he didn't get the answer he wanted.

The wizards present all looked at the charr in the sky with trepidation.

"Mr. Commander, you are wrong, the meaning of the aether dragon itself is beyond your imagination, the aether dragon cannot grasp the law, but he can. We don't yet know who this master really is, but we can be sure. He holds a deeper law that all of us present can testify to, and just a moment before we all felt the shock from the sea of magic. ”

The wizard leader shook his head with a solemn face: "You may not understand this yet, Your Excellency Commander, but I have a little advice for you." You'd better use your men to cause him a little trouble, or we might not be his match. ”

"What," the commander was startled, "but he looks much younger than you." ”

"The wizard's world is about the power of knowledge, not age." The wizard leader replied.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm not sure," the wizard head shook his head, "it's just a guess, but you can bet I'm wrong, Your Excellency, Commander." ”

The commander glanced at the robed wizards and thought to himself that he had guessed wrong.

And he didn't know that everyone in the room had the same idea.

……

Vanna looked up and saw exactly such a scene.

She saw the soldiers of the Empire launch a Jedi counterattack. The blue ocean looked so dazzling, but it was incredibly vulnerable, and the Aether Dragon's attacks were far less dazzling than their appearances, and she could clearly analyze that the strength of these strange creatures would not exceed the Silver Peak, and most of the Imperial knights on the city walls were no more than equal. And happily, when the Aetherdragons attacked, they also suffered casualties very quickly, and attacks that had previously been unable to deal damage to them were switched to the physical world. The first time they are knocked out of the air, but the aether creatures that fall from mid-air tend to end their lives in a strange way.

It was like a dazzling self-detonation. Their transparent bodies slammed into the city walls, and then exploded into a light blue ripple, under which the Imperial soldiers were unscathed, and the walls were not damaged in the slightest, the only change was made. It was the spells of the wizards of the empire that began to thin out; The lady vaguely understood what was happening, but to her surprise, the number of etherdragons was decreasing very quickly, far faster than they were dying, and it seemed as if they had filled the sky before. But in an instant, there were only a few left.

Where did those aetherdragons go?

She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she didn't quite understand what the problem was. But what really made Ms. Vanna a little confused was that this was what Brando asked her to see? If she could appreciate how he had failed, but she clearly didn't see the frustration on the face of the descendant of Darus, Brando kept smiling and looking into the air, and that confident look never subsided.

The aether dragons in the sky finally disappeared one by one.

But this is not good news for the wizards of the Empire.

They were having a hard time talking, they had never really seen these legendary creatures, and they didn't expect that the other party would burn mana after death, so it only caused one result, that is, all the wizards who were caught off guard were burned out of their magic power at the first time, and a few slightly more senior wizards were okay, but the apprentice classes around them were almost pale at the moment, staggering.

The Aether Dragon is upgraded from the Wind Spirit Baby Dragon and the Spider, and this trait is also in the same vein.

But soon someone discovered a new problem:

"They're not disappearing at the right rate."

"No, that's not disappearing, it's a transfer to the Aether Realm, Captain!"

The wizards were much more knowledgeable than a mere swordsman like Vanna, and immediately realized what the problem was.

But at this moment, Charles was turning the cards, and the law of the traveling mage was like a fire, burning in his body, and the fire seemed to ignite his eyes, causing the same silver light to shine in them. He looked condescendingly at the Cruz fortress, and his mind seemed to have two different consciousnesses, one thinking about the battle and the other counting carefully - after the Imperial wizards were muted, the gargoyles began to gain the upper hand again, and although they still had to face the difficult Imperial longbowmen, at least they did not have to face the risk of being torn apart by terrible spells at any moment.

What's more, the magical defense on the black sword barrier is gradually weakening, and the wizards who injected magic into them are also burned out of mana at this moment.

And in Charles's body, the mana that had been completely consumed in order to summon the ether dragon was slowly recovering little by little, and the speed of recovery seemed to be gradually increasing with the speed of the ether dragon's disappearance.

And the magic of these rises. It was re-injected into the board of the Aether Dragon.

Then, a whole new batch of Aether Dragons appeared in the sky.

The Cruz were looking up at the sky, and a significant number of them even opened their mouths wide.

"Look over there, there's over there!"

"It's up here, too!"

"Kill them!"

"They're gone again!"

"There's a new monster again!"

There was chaos above the walls, Imperial soldiers, wizards. They watched in amazement as the aetherdragons appeared and disappeared, disappeared and reappeared, but each time they disappeared, they brought with them new companions that seemed to increase as if they had progressed geometrically. No one knew what was happening, but it was as if the Aetherdragons had literally converged into the ocean, and when they attacked for the last time, the terrifying tsunami scene had finally arrived, facing thousands of enemies, even the proudest of the Cruz. I couldn't help but throw away the weapon in my hand a little weakly.

It was a battle that no longer made sense.

Charles seemed to be harnessing this sea of magic full of power, the blue magic energy gathered at his feet, the commander of the empire did not think of attacking him, but unfortunately it was meaningless, whenever they were about to achieve their goal, a pure silver shield appeared in front of Charles, it was the hymn of protection, and Hipamila held the meaning of the mountains. With a steady stream of mana from the ether dragon, she chose the target of this spell countless times.

The last scene Vanna saw was that the blue sea completely obscured the walls of the Black Sword Barrier. It wasn't like she hadn't seen such a spectacular scene, but it was in the midst of a holy war, when she faced the most powerful wizard of the Saint-Osor.

She seemed to finally recognize the young wizard.

"It turned out to be him!"

The lady seemed to muttered to herself in disbelief: "He didn't even die, a rare genius among the wizards of the Black Tower, I should have known about it." He's always been so unexpected. ”

Brando was slightly stunned, this seemed to be the second time he had heard something like this, and he couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Charles in the sky.

But by this time Vana had withdrawn her gaze, the Cruz had been completely defeated, and the reinforcements in the fortress had not yet arrived. She could already imagine what was happening. "You won," she replied calmly, "I just didn't expect that forty years later, he would actually become a great wizard...... The Wizard of the Black Tower finally had a wizard leader after a thousand years, and those who made the decision back then must not have thought of it today. But what did you get, grandson of Darus, except for the hatred of the Empire. ”

Brandor knew that the lady known as the White Shadow Swordsman must have misunderstood, she thought that Charles had crossed the Extreme Plains and become a great wizard, but he didn't expose this misunderstanding, in fact, it was this misunderstanding that he needed at the moment.

And as for what he gets-

He looked at the blue reflection in the sky and shook his head slightly, what he had gotten, the Imperial people would never understand.

……

Count Tonigel has gone mad.

Whether in Swallowcastle or in Grey Haven, from the north of the kingdom to the south south of Ampessel, or from Jean Denel to the dense forests of Goran-Elsen, any place inhabited, whether by nobles, commoners, or even unidentified and ill-intentioned people, was talking with great interest about the news that had come back from Balta since the weather had turned cold in the north and a light snow had fallen for a moment or two.

The royal party is almost crazy.

With the exception of Macaro and Sir Overwell the Wolf, everyone acted like sharks smelling blood, and they had long been dissatisfied with the Earl who had pointed fingers at them, and this resentment was now clearly vented in some way. Secret letters were passed through these people to Macarro, the real principals of the royal party, and every word written on them was enough to make the most daring radicals shudder.

It is full of exhortations, insults, harsh rebukes, questioning, and even slanderous words.

Macaro could also smile bitterly at Overwell, these things were so obvious that he couldn't help but doubt the IQ of his colleagues, but what made him doubt his own IQ even more was the other part of the letterhead piled up on his desk. These letterheads are not slanderous, but come from letterheads farther north that convey some kind of message.

The words on those letterheads, written in bright red handwriting, were enough to make anyone who read them think that he was reading some absurd story.

On the 25th of the Frostfall Month, Count Tonigel captured the Black Sword Barrier, a battle in which there were few casualties except for the gargoyles lost by the Count himself, and then Count Tonigel forced (or rather escorted) the entire Imperial army to hold a grand welcome ceremony for his Eruin envoys, and then released all the Imperial soldiers prisoners, and compensated the Knights' Gate for the cost of repairs as a courtesy.

On the twenty-seventh day of the frost month, Count Tonigel and his envoys passed through the Torro Gorge and defeated some of the local nobles of the Cruz who had come to provoke.

On the thirtieth day of the Frostfall Month, Count Tonigal and his envoys captured Torro, and after extorting a large ransom of what he called 'Reputational Damages' and 'Moral Compensation', they released all the nobles.

On the 7th day of the month of the Winter Qin, Count Tonigel defeated the Summer Solstice Knights of the Cruz.

On the fifteenth day of the Winter Lyre, Count Toniguel and his envoys defeated the Anzeruta Local Legion.

On the nineteenth day of the month of the Winter Qin, Count Tonigel......

……

Macaro and Overwell silently read the last sentence of the letterhead, then gently placed it in front of Princess Griffiin, and couldn't help but ask a little tiredly: "Well, Your Highness Princess, can you please tell me, Count Tonigel, what he wants to do when he falls to the ground?" ”

Princess Griffiin also glanced at the letter with some humility, and then smiled reluctantly at her two close ministers: "I think...... Lord Earl, he should be measured. ”

"Yes, right?" Makaro silently looked at Her Royal Highness the Princess.
