Chapter 1455: Air Raid
Ahead is the capital of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].
That is, the decisive battle of this voyage.
Ronald wanted to preserve as much of the advantage of his surprise attack as possible before he arrived. With the full force of the flying spell, the original journey of about three days was directly compressed to less than one day.
When the two of them came over the city from the air, it was exactly two hours before the wee hours of the morning.
At this moment, the inhabitants of the city are still resting.
In addition to the night patrol casters, they also roam the streets and alleys, and large swaths of the city are shrouded in darkness, with only sporadic lights and some street scenes.
In all fairness, the casters of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] are quite attentive to the construction of the city.
Ronald and Kostadt flew through the air, revealing rare buildings that no other city on the entire Southern Continent could see. In addition to large banks and industrialized shipyards, there is even a large central hospital.
Especially when it comes to urban planning.
The city's streets are functionally well demarcated from the various districts, and the smooth roads are well maintained on a daily basis.
At an angle looking down below.
It can even clearly discern the direction and development plan of the city's future expansion.
“……”
"This is not the level of planning that a city on the southern continent should have."
Seeing this scene, Ronald judged with great certainty:
"It seems that our enemies have not only quickened their grasp of the original texts by possessing the Book of Interpretation, but have also taken advantage of this to learn a lot from the books."
Kostadt followed suit and expressed his opinion:
"At the moment, the level of construction in the city is not as good as [Springs], but if this trend continues, I am afraid that they will soon catch up with [Grad]'s footsteps."
“……”
Ronald and Kostadt exchanged their views on the city as their figures streaked across the dark night sky.
The Nine Precepts Secret Meeting is an advantage for the excellent construction of the city.
But for attackers like Ronald and the two, it also brought quite convenient conditions for attack.
It's just flying in the air, and it doesn't even need any scouting spells to assist.
Ronald turned his gaze around and saw a solemn building in the northeast of the city. While the scale is not small, the other buildings are quite far away from here, and there is a very open square in front of it.
From this visual information alone, Ronald dared to conclude that this must be the administrative building of the city, and there is almost no other possibility!
“……”
Looking at the building, Ronald stared.
The enemy's base camp was in front of him, and he had no intention of sneaking in and sneaking around to assassinate him.
Instead, he is ready to use thunderous means to take down the other party in one fell swoop.
So Ronald looked at Kostadt beside him and said the first order to the other party tonight:
"Kostadt, you're manipulating the weather to rain nearby. The process tries to keep the impact as low as possible, so that no one can find out, just create an environment where I can cast spells. ”
Kostadt immediately understood Ronald's intentions.
Her master prepares to cast the spell of Hammer of Rain and Mist, using the most furious thunder of all abilities to wipe out everyone in the building below!
"Sir, I see!"
The maid nodded slightly, then broke away from Ronald's flight guidance and began to control the air flow to raise the altitude by herself.
Spells that affect the weather are no small feat.
At this high level of normal casting, overly exaggerated mana fluctuations will definitely alarm the caster below.
The caster of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].
But Ronald has been investigated in detail.
Once the other party is aware of their attack in advance, it is likely that they will come up with corresponding countermeasures. Although in terms of destructive power alone, lightning spells do dominate among many forces.
But there are definitely a lot of weird spells of all kinds in the canon system.
If you happen to come up with a Faraday cage or something like that, it's a lot of fun.
Meanwhile, Ronald watched from below as Costa's figure flew upward.
In order to fulfill his request, the maid chose a very simple countermeasure.
She raises herself as high as she can, keeping the cast area away from the perception range of the enemies below.
And by the darkness before the dawn of the morning.
Costadt blew a large cloud into the sky from a distance.
Rising higher above the clouds, she began to cast a spell to induce the celestial phenomena in preparation for the next two currents of air for rain.
To the extent that he can, Kostadt has done the best he can.
Seeing this, Ronald no longer worried about this, but looked at the mouth below and began to recite his spell incantation:
"Its name is Styx,
The black water flowed down to the foot of the dark and precipitous cliff......"
As the spell activated, the Divine Comedy - Inferno's perceptual spell overlays downward.
The result also lifted Ronald's mood.
Probably because of the tense environment in recent days, many high-level personnel of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] gathered in the administrative building tonight and did not return to their respective mansions to rest.
Ronald could distinguish carefully, and even clearly identify several powerful holders of the original canon.
And even more fortunately, these guys are still quite vigilant though. But because Operation Kostadt was far enough away, none of them noticed the changes taking place above the city.
"Whew-"
Ronald exhaled, everything was planned at the moment.
So he summoned "The Hammer of Rain and Mist" from his hand.
Holding this quaint and powerful text, Ronald stood quietly above the dark sky and began to wait for Kostadt to change the weather.
At the same time, the maid is carrying out Ronald's task perfectly.
On the premise of ensuring that no trace is revealed, Kostat carefully controls his spells little by little above the sky, making subtle changes to the weather.
With patience and meticulous operation, almost a quarter of an hour passed.
The airflow drawn by the continuous casting gradually grows, and finally the rainfall requirement is satisfied. Kostat seized this tipping point and directly collided two air currents under his control into the air, and then buried them in the clouds directly below.
Bang Bang –
Ronald below immediately felt a chill on his face.
The first drop of rain, like a signal that Costadt brought him, quietly fell on Ronald's face.
Ronald whispered thanks to Kostadt.
Then he held the tablet engraved with cuneiform in front of him, and he recited it in a firm tone:
"The sky is set in the daylight,
The earth is separated from the margins,
The name of the Son of Man has not yet been established! ”
Night-
The city was still silent at night.
With the sudden fluctuation of magic power, a dazzling thunderbolt exploded in the air, illuminating the entire sky.
