Chapter 161: The Game of Genting (6) (All the people who voted were cuties)

Due to the previous fear that the Cloud Ascending Wing would not be able to fly steadily in the strong winds, the Tengu Clan was not scheduled to join the first wave of the attack on the Medici mage camp.

But now that the bad weather conditions have been contained, these impatient fellows naturally jumped off the airship, and their mission at this time was to assist the Usang troops to land safely.

Breathing in the air that lingered after the heavy artillery fire—the Tengu Patriarch loved the strange "sweet" smell, the perfect pleasure when looking down on the earth from the sky - it was even more refreshing to see the wingless Uzo allies carefully slide down the ropes or float down to the ground under the effect of the "group feather fall", and watch some of them turn blue with fear of heights.

The ballistas on the airship fired a large number of crossbow arrows with ropes into the earth, and the trained crossbowmen were very skilled in controlling the angle between the ropes and the earth.

The angle should not be too large, so that the person will fall to his death if he slides down, and it should not be too small, and the long time in the air will make the person on the zipline a live target. In addition, make sure that the rope has some slack and cannot be tightened and straightened.

This is how the Dusaki samurai landed, and they slid down one after the other with stone pulleys and a rappelling rope with knots on it.

As for the Free Folk Swordsman, he naturally has better treatment.

The samurai gathered around the captain, and their commander tore open the "group featherfall" scroll issued by the mages and jumped off the deck of the airship with all the team members.

The rest of the story is interesting, as the freefolk swordsmen need to keep an eye on each other, and no one can be stuck on deck under "any excuse".

It is also important to brace yourself during the fall and observe if there are people around you who fall headfirst to the ground - this is not uncommon, and people who fall from a height are likely to lose the correct perception of the direction of gravity, especially if some people have their eyes closed due to fear of heights.

Once this situation is discovered, the people around must correct it in time, after all, the "feather fall technique" cannot prevent the death caused by the broken head and neck.

On the whole, however, the landing of the Uzags went very well, with a full twenty bands of freedfolk swordsmen and a few more Dudi slave warriors darling down in the mage camp of Medici.

After the previous bombardment, the defensive positions built by spells have been razed to the ground, and the long craters and blazing flames have become the main theme of the place.

The soldiers of the Usang divided into small groups to cover the "ice and snow giant tree" standing in the center of the camp in a small group of flag teams. Again, it was the Slaver Warriors who took the lead to prevent spell traps that might not have been triggered.

This wasn't overly cautious, as spell traps such as explosive runes buried deep in the ground and acid orbs that would only be activated under certain circumstances were discovered. After paying the lives of nearly a hundred slave warriors, the U-san finally came to gather around the Ice Giant Tree.

Due to the repeated shelling and bombardment of the airships, the elemental pool under the feet of the Ice Prophet and the Snow Prophet had shrunk to a radius of less than two hundred feet. Although it is still cold, it is no longer able to penetrate the bone marrow as before.

The co-leader of the Free Folk Swordsmen, their co-captain, was very commanding, and did not choose to directly use the lives of the Dufall slave warriors to pave a path through this frozen realm.

The Flag Bearer quickly waved the yellow and red pennant in his hand, and he was delivering orders to the Tengu team in the air. The captain of the U-Sang Wing prepares to have the Tengu throw a "Falling Flame Strike" based on the marked target.

As the sky darkens, the archers unleash arrows with small jars of red phosphorus that burn to mark the Tengu's aim.

At the same time, in order to prevent the Medici mages hiding behind the Frozen Realm from using spells to interfere, the Captain of the U-Sang also had the grenadiers use small ballistas to throw alchemy bombs into the barrier. The sound of eardrums irritating continued to sound, and the trained soldier covered his eyes with his arms to avoid the glaring flashes that followed.

The Tengu's "Falling Flame Strike" accurately hit all of the marked targets, and they sang the praises of their "great achievements" in the air with a variety of voices.

The incendiary bombs containing white phosphorus burned through the snow on the surface of the elemental pool, and the ice beneath the ground slowly turned into small pools of water, and the power of the ice and snow that could have repaired itself seemed to be powerless to stop the destruction.

If it weren't for the fact that the staff also wanted to explore the secrets of this strategic spell, the order was to capture as many of the Medicki spell casters as possible. Seeing the end of the enemy's crossbows, the Captain of the U-Sang even thought about whether to simply order the Tengu forces to completely burn through their last hiding place.

But his optimism didn't last long. The continuous exothermic process of the White Phosphorus Incendiary Bomb, called "Falling Flame Strike", fills the elemental pool with steam, allowing new elemental summons to appear.

Steam bats are born from boiling pools of water, and they are a type of elemental creature just like the Ice Demon Bats. Although the Steam Demon Bat is not as cold and cruel as the Ice Demon Bat, its nature is more domineering and sensitive.

The boiling water gurgled to drown out the hissing of their wings, and the steam that swirled above the night and elemental pools made their already unseemly translucent figures even more imperceptible.

The tengu with the wings of the clouds on their backs made a lot of noise in the air, which made the temper of the steam demon bat a little more obedient. They pounce viciously on their opponents like real "little devils", spitting boiling steam breath into their faces.

Both the Tengu and the Usan on the ground were struck by this, and the unlucky ones with the steam beard were immediately clawed by the steam bats. Outrageously, their claw strikes are often aimed at the blisters on the victim's face, and for a time they are full of grief.

Of course, the Steam Bats are not completely immune to any blows, and their bodies are translucent but still solid. Whether it's a slash with a knife or an axe, or a heavy blow with a shield, it can damage the body of the Steam Demon Bat.

The attacked soldiers launched a counterattack, and the steam bats were constantly cut into several pieces. Similar to Ice Demon Bats, these elemental creatures will find a way to deliver the final blow to their enemies when they die.

The dead steam bats turned into a hot cloud of steam, and any soldier within five feet of them who were not agile enough to jump away in time would face the danger of being burned in a large area again.

The sudden attack of the steam demon bats caused a commotion among the Usang people on the ground. The airship commanders kept trying to communicate with the wing commander on the ground, reminding him to change tactics in time.

But what they don't know is that the real crisis is gathering at the top of their heads. A fireball was launched from the observation deck of an airship and soared into the sky, turning into a firework that illuminated the night.

A large number of flying carpets swooped down from above the clouds, each one controlled by a mage, and even some of the most prestigious black-robed mages took on the role of pilot. At this time, the passengers on the flying carpet were ordinary soldiers dressed as a large number of Medici soldiers.

This is the last "counter-assault" in Quisi's previous plan:

The blizzard weakened the airship's lift, preventing it from climbing higher into the air. Therefore, it is impossible to see the ambush set up at the top of the cloud in advance;

Thanks to the thousands of years of accumulation of the Mediqi Empire, although the flying carpet is an expensive spell creation, it is not a problem to mobilize a few hundred in a short period of time, although it is not necessary for every mage to have manpower;

After the bombing, the Usang not only lowered their flight altitude again, but also left the airship without enough fighters to garrison it.

The strategy of one link after another gradually turned the situation around, and the advantage of the airship as an air fortress was gone. The riot of the Usang ground forces caused by the steam bats sounded the clarion call for a counterattack, and the agreed fireball technique was the signal to open the floodgates.

Mediki's flying carpets are like the water of the heavenly river, tearing through the camouflage of the night and pouring down on the airship. The elite warriors untied the eagle's beak from their shoulder armor, and the elite beasts provided by the mages turned into a black cloud and swept away the enemies below.

The beasts are responsible for harassment, the mages are responsible for driving, and the warriors are specialized in destruction. Soldiers in teams of 10 on a flying carpet jumped down at the same time as the aircraft approached the airship's airbags.

They lit their torches, drew their swords, and slashed at the airbags beneath their feet—although the skin was sturdy, the "Demolition Houses" team gradually mastered the art of slicing through the holes—one of them kept pulling out rows of holes with his spear, and two of them grabbed their scimitars in unison and tore through the holes.

Spotting the enemy's wanton destruction of the airship's airbags, the Damage Guards tried to stop it, but were harassed by the Patrol Eagle while climbing the rope ladder. The Ezo people were cut in the face by the claws of the eagles, the beaks were pecked blind, and they fell down the rope ladder in horror and died.

The mages of the U-sang began to prepare for a counterattack, but were sniped by their fellow Medics. After unloading the soldiers on the flying carpet, the mages also gathered in groups of three or five, and with their numbers and mobility, they fought the enemy's flying boats.

According to the tactics discussed in advance, the Mediqi side uses the black-robed mage as the core and the gray-robed spell as the auxiliary. The former is responsible for casting powerful offensive spells, while the latter defends against attacks by different forms of spells by their numbers.

"The division of labor symbolizes order, and order is power. This proverb of the devil of Batzu once again proves that those guys from the lower realms still have some foresight.

The battle ended with the fall of the first airship, and at the same time, the "Flying Fortress", which had damaged a large number of airbags, was directly defeated by the great demon king of gravity, and the airships formed by the alliance of the nobles of the Japanese were damaged one after another.

Any mortal who fell from thousands of feet in the air could only let out a cry of helplessness and pain, and only a handful of Usang spellcasters managed to escape back to the ship's flagship, which was suspended in the air using an anti-gravity circle.

The Medidic warriors, who also used the "group feather fall technique" to land from above the airbags, immediately launched a charge against the already stunned Usang ground legion after completing the "demolition" work.

The morale of one side is like a rainbow, the other side is terrified, and the results of this are already evident at the beginning of the battle. Not to mention the large number of soldiers who have sprang up on the ridge behind the mage's camp to join the teamfight, and through the hidden holes dug by the mages in advance, an elite army of soldiers rushing to the battlefield from the northern port cities is hidden inside.

Compared to the ground, the situation on the battlefield in the sky is more complicated.

Some of the flying boats, with their good maneuverability, are still dogfighting with the mages who ride the flying carpet. It was only when Quest and the half-lich Sneijder summoned by him appeared in the ship belonging to the Admiral, that these resistances had become futile.

However, the results of this "Genting Game" are really amazing.

"The golden cicada is out of its shell? or abandon the pawn to protect the car?"

When Quis personally opened the way to the stern staff room of the general general, I don't know if it was the result of not silently reciting "Brother Chicken's blessing", but when it came to clearing the customs, he found that the boss was actually a kind of goods - the silver warrior armor placed in the staff room was easily rounded and flattened by the force field giant hand - Obviously, the equipment that broke out was also a Xibei cargo.
