In the furious seas west of the Pearl Islands, a massive metal ship is breaking through the waves, the Light of the Seven Towers, preserved by a magical seal and rediscovered thousands of years later. It unfurls a massive shield that envelops a large expanse of the surrounding sea. If you count carefully, you will find that there are eight large steel ships that are moving around it in a starry circle. These are the eight largest capital battleships of the Western Continent Republic, and these steel monsters have now undergone simple magical transformations, and newly carved magic circles have made them stronger and faster. And the Houyi and Xingtian, who were walking with them, completely lost their momentum, like ducklings swimming beside the swans.

The furious sea was very calm under the shroud of this shield, this was because Xiao Chen and the others placed the artifacts on the Houyi and Xingtian on the Light of the Seven Towers, and fused the power of the artifact into the shield through the magic circle on the four pillars, so that the area covered by the shield could not only resist the wind and lightning, but also spread the power of the artifact to calm the sea conditions to a larger area.

Xiao Chen stood on one of the high platforms, his hands pressed on a disc in front of him, and he maintained the shield with the other four Sages. After he began to manipulate the shield on the Light of the Seven Towers, he realized that the shield was not actually generated by the power of the Holy Rank Mage itself. The main role of the Holy Rank Mage is to maintain the stability of the shield, as well as to adjust the strength of the shield itself according to the sea conditions at the time, and the energy of the shield actually comes from a large number of magic crystals in the ship's bottom hedron warehouse. Therefore, the work of maintaining the shield was not as tiring as he thought at the beginning, especially after matching the artifact from He Xiaoxi, even the energy consumed became less.

Cleveland stepped up to the platform and said, "Your Excellency, you've been working for four hours. Let me replace you. In fact, we now have plenty of Sages, and you don't have to maintain this shield every day. ”

"This is also an experience in itself, the Light of the Seven Towers is a treasure trove, whenever I come to maintain the shield, I am connected to it, I can slowly experience how the ancestors of the Seven Towers used the power of magic in this work, it has given me a great boost these days. Xiao Chen said.

"I see, you really don't miss any opportunity to learn. No wonder you and your companions have been able to reach the Holy Steps so quickly and comprehend so many wonderful learning methods. ”

Xiao Chen said, "In the past few days, how has the operation of teaching magic to the soldiers with magical talents on several ships around the world progressed?"

Cleveland said: "There has been a lot of progress on the road these days, after all, these are the elite of the army of the Republic, and many soldiers have initially mastered the spell-casting skills of low-level magic, and have begun to embark on the path of dual cultivation of magic and martial arts." In my opinion, as long as the original solid foundation of the Republic is added, the element of magic is added. The strength of the Western Continent has more than doubled. ”

"That's best, you may not realize how powerful our enemies are. In the Western Continent, we have completely lost contact with the Eastern Continent these days, and we don't know what the situation over there has become. Xiao Chen said with some concern.

"You don't have to worry too much, I know a lot of past history now, even in the era of the Seven Towers, those mages didn't have the power of the two continents, and we now have an unprecedented advantage. ”

"I hope so. ”

Xiao Chen gave up the control console to Cleveland, and in a flicker, he came to the deck of the Light of the Seven Towers, and he saw the veteran Sage Strani standing on the deck, looking at the sky in front of him.

"The sky has changed. Strani said.

"Yes, we're almost out of the berserk. I don't know what awaits us after this. Xiao Chen said.

"It's definitely a lot of fun. Straney smiled, "Your Excellency Xiao Chen, I find that you seem to have a little bit of guilt in your heart when you face us people. ”

"Guilty?" Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, but then he nodded and said, "If it is said that I have to drag you into the war, maybe there will be a little bit." The Western Continent is a place that has said goodbye to war for a long time. Although there have always been many rebellions, bandits, and the like, there has not been a real national war for many, many years. The more I read the history of the Western Continent, the more I feel that you are actually living happily. It is really a shame for you to drag you out of the happy life under the Holy Maiden and to fight against God. ”

"No, Your Excellency Xiao Chen, you are wrong. Actually, a saint like me would be grateful to you. Strany patted him on the shoulder with a rough hand, "It's been a long time since I've reached this realm, whether it's the gods or the devil, the saints have always said that our enemies are them, but in fact, no one thinks they really have a chance to cross the furious sea to fight these fateful enemies. Because generations of past Sages did not have such an opportunity, they became very powerful and then left this world from their hospital beds. This is also very sad for us, isn't it? How difficult it is for a person to cultivate to the Holy Rank, and there is no room for development, and how unwilling it is. So, at least for me, you gave me this opportunity, the chance to kill the enemy on a real battlefield, or to die in battle. I...... Very happy. ”

Xiao Chen was quite moved when he heard these words, because even he didn't dare to say that he was ready to die. Although he continues to work hard, he still hopes that the Tower of China can survive various crises at the minimum cost as in the past. He wanted to say that everyone should get through this safely. But suddenly I felt that it was difficult to speak in front of a determined warrior like Strani.

Strani said, "You don't have to comfort me. If this has a day, it will be a good ending for me, not just me, but a few other old guys thinking that way. ”

"Thank you!" Xiao Chen said sincerely.

"Straney is right, and I think so. A voice came from behind the two of them, it was the Lucia Sage, who was good at healing. She walked up to Xiao Chen and said, "I just accidentally overheard your conversation. Your Excellency Xiao Chen, even ordinary people who are still living on the Western Continent should also thank you. The arrival of the gods is undoubtedly a disaster, it is you who gave us the opportunity to stop him, otherwise we would have stayed in the Western Continent and would not have been aware of his arrival, and then it would have been too late.

In fact, not only are we aware of this, but the fighters on these ships are also aware of this. And how could such a thing not be sacrificed?"
