In the morning, at the peak pass.

Nolan and Ryan are in the makeshift operations conference room to confirm today's battle plan.

"This morning, the troops of Linfeng City have all been assembled."

"We are fighting at home, and we are superior to Alto City in terms of morale and combat effectiveness.

"The only thing I'm worried about right now is that I don't know how many high-level transcendent forces Roderick has reinforced the Alto City army.

"If we get ambushed in a hasty battle, the advantage we won last night will be lost."

Nolan thought for a moment and said, "At least it's impossible for them to send reinforcements from powerhouses above the eighth order.

"Not to mention how rare the eighth-order powerhouses are, if they had such strong reinforcements, it would be impossible for them to fight so intimidating last night and easily give up the vanguard army camp.

"And as long as it's not an eighth-order transcendent or above, Bai Raven and I have the strength to fight against it, so you don't have to worry about that."

"That's pretty reliable." Ryan let out a sigh.

"For transcendentals, especially high-level transcendentals, crossing the first order is a completely different realm, and the difference in strength is quite large, and it is extremely difficult to surpass it easily.

"But with all kinds of magical equipment, you can now easily fight across levels.

"Alchemy...... It's an incredible power. ”

Nolan smiled, "That's why I want Peak City to vigorously develop alchemy.

"Having said that, since our current combat strength is superior to Alto City, it is better to directly push the battle line forward today and force them to withdraw by force.

"The Sky Knights will be in the sky to support the ground forces, and in the best case, I hope to recapture this transport route today."

Ryan nodded, and was about to speak, when his expression suddenly froze.

On the conference table, the water in the cup in front of him shook slightly, causing ripples in the cup.

Nolan also noticed this strange and said thoughtfully, "This is ...... Earthquake? ”

Ryan frowned: "The Linfeng Mountain Range is rich in veins, and there will never be famines, plagues, earthquakes, and other natural disasters.

"Therefore, nine times out of ten, this earthquake is a vision of heaven and earth caused by high-level demonic beasts or human transcendents......"

The tremor was even worse as he spoke, and soon almost everyone stationed at the pass noticed the tremor of the ground.

"That's movement coming from the direction of Alto's troops."

Ryan looked up at the pass, "Could it be that they are doing something......"

"I'll see what happened."

Noren got up, put on the black raven mask hanging from his waist, and said to Yuna, "How's it going, can you attack now?" ”

"Yes." In her room, Yuna, who was meditating with her eyes closed, opened her eyes, "I'm going to prepare." ”

When she returned last night, she immediately took a large amount of supplements and entered a state of recuperation.

After becoming a high-level knight, her body's recovery ability has increased again, and the intensity of last night's battle is not high, and her body is not completely overdrawn.

So by this morning, she was almost back in shape.

Noren and Yuna meet in the compartment of the magic transport vehicle, and Luo Zhen and Essia, who are in charge of logistics, have equipped them with the "Eye of Odin" and "Valkyrie" that have been prepared.

"Black Raven, Eye of Odin gear, go."

"White Raven, Valkyrie gear, go."

Noren and Yuna held the beam sniper in their hands, and then the two of them flapped their wings and flew in the direction of Alto City troops outside the gate.

The Valkyrie Avalanche equipped with a flight component is faster, thus acting as a reconnaissance spearhead.

Noren manipulated Odin's Eye to activate the stealth circle, floating in the air without slow, and at the same time unleashed a drone to follow the white raven.

However, you don't need to fly too deep, the weather is good today, the sky is clear and cloudless, and the visibility in the sky is very high.

Noren climbed the altitude as he flew, and soon glimpsed the changes that had taken place a few kilometers away—

Just on the edge of Alto's vanguard camp was a steep mountain that was collapsing.

The structure of the mountain seemed to have been completely destroyed, and boulders, trees, and dirt, like collapsed dominoes, fell like clattering heads down the road at the foot of the mountain.

The ruins of these mountains completely blocked the passage, and the landslide stirred up flying dust.

The shaking of the earth and the violent sound of rocks rolling down could be felt clearly even in the air.

Not only that, but after capturing the vanguard camp last night, the Linfeng army stationed a scout team here.

Now there was a sudden earthquake and landslide, and even the nearby pioneer camp was buried.

Noren saw that the scout team was fleeing towards the pass in a panic, and he didn't know if all the members had withdrawn from the camp in time?

"Nolan, this is ......"

Seeing such a spectacular landslide, Yuna's heart was also shocked.

"It must be Alto's ghost." Nolan's face was gloomy.

"You're here, these guys...... In order to achieve the goal, it is really unscrupulous. ”

After the landslide, a large number of rockfalls and trees completely blocked the transportation channel, and it was difficult to clean it up in a short time.

This not only hindered the ground forces of Linfeng City from launching an attack, but also achieved the purpose of cutting off the passage, which can indeed be called killing two birds with one stone.

"To cause a landslide earthquake of this scale, the opponent should be a seventh-order earth mage."

He quickly made a judgment, "Search ahead, and if you find that mage, kill him immediately!" ”

"Roger." Yuna made her way through the rockfall and continued to fly forward.

Then she was surprised to find that the Alto City troops, which had been stationed here last night, had retreated several kilometers.

At the same time, either the ground collapsed, or rockfall blocked, and these kilometers of transportation routes were completely destroyed.

Seeing this tragic situation, the corners of Nolan's mouth twitched in anger.

Okay, okay, that's it, right?

At this time, the tremor on the ground subsided for a while, and Yuna took a look around, and said, "I have found no trace of suspicious mages, do you need me to catch up with their large army and take a look?" ”

"Nope." Nolan took a deep breath and thought, "The big army has already retreated so far, and that mage was just casting a spell nearby, so he definitely didn't go back that soon.

"I think he must have been hiding in the woods by the road. Follow my drone, let's go get him! ”

Next to the transport passage was a dense wood, and if the enemy hid there, it would not be easy for them to be spotted from the sky.

Nolan's mind moved, and the drone plunged into the nearby woods, and began to search for the surrounding souls with mental detection.

Yuna lowered her altitude and flew close to the ground with the drone, and it wasn't long before there was another violent vibration on the ground.

Don't think about it, it's the opponent who is sabotaging again.

However, he was close to the epicenter, and through Yuna's perspective, he could already hear a rumbling sound in the east of the woods.

Rushing towards the source of the sound, the drone's psychic wave soon captured the location of all enemies in front of it.

"Target!"

Noren shared the drone's information with Yuna while reminding, "Be careful, there are quite a few spiritual reactions ahead, and there are at least three seventh-order transcendents!" ”

"Roger!"

Yuna raised her beam sniper cannon, and although there were trees in front of her to obscure her vision, she still locked onto one of the most spiritually powerful seventh-order transcendents to shoot.

"Whew-"

The white beam fused through the trees in its path, shooting straight at the opponent.

However, after the blow, no one was fatally injured in the mental power detection from the drone.

Yuna looked intently and saw a seventh-order knight holding up a shield and a brown-robed mage behind her.

This destructive beam was blocked by the seventh-order knight.

"Hehe, after being defeated by our army, did the white ravens of Linfeng City finally make a move?"

Mage Revi sneered and slapped his hand the ground.

"Boom—"

The next moment the ground trembled, and the surface in front of him began to deform and break, and the originally relatively gentle terrain rose and fell at the same time, forming a mountain wall that vehicles and horses could never climb.

In addition to the adjacent transport routes, there is also a small road in the vicinity where horse-drawn carriages can cross the Linfeng Mountains.

In fact, this is the only and only way between Peaks and Flamel.

But now, under the terraforming of Rivi, the roads and terrain here are completely destroyed, and if you want to get to Flamel again, you have to take a long detour.

"Grass, it's really giving you face!"

Seeing that Levi had done all the bad things, Nolan was furious and controlled the drone to fly towards the dead end of his field of vision.

"Yuna, I'll give you a chance, you seize the opportunity to kill him!"

As he spoke, he activated the drone's third spell.

Immediately, a powerful wave of spiritual power condensed into an invisible giant hammer that fell from the sky, slamming into Levi and his escorts.

Fifth-Order Soul Spell "Hammer of Judgment": Bombards an area with mental power, causing mental damage, stun, and shock to the soul body.

Due to its size, the drone was not equipped with more advanced offensive soul spells, and in the face of seventh-order transcendentals, it still couldn't cause much serious damage to them.

But that's enough.

Because his purpose is not to kill his opponent, but to create a flaw for Yuna.

Soul spells focus on a stealth and are not defended by regular armor.

Even if it is a seventh-order transcendent, if it is hit by a fifth-order soul spell without defense, it will still have a short period of loss of consciousness.

"Hum—"

The hammer of judgment fell, and the soldiers below the sixth rank in the escort team all had headaches and screamed.

Rivi and the two seventh-order knights were in a slightly better condition, but they inevitably fell into a brief trance.

Taking advantage of this second of flaw, Yuna quickly flew sideways to adjust the shooting angle, completely exposing Levi behind the seventh-order knight to her cannon!

"Whew-"

The beam sniper cannon unfurled the circle again, and when the two seventh-order knights came back to their senses, the destruction beam had already passed by them and was heading straight for Rivi.

However, in the end, Levi was a seventh-order mage with a profound background, and his recovery speed was faster than that of these two seventh-order knights.

Before being consumed by the light, Levi moved, his left hand gripping an orange-yellow pendant on his chest.

It was a square-shaped, translucent crystal, and as he poured magic into it and chanted a spell, the orange-yellow crystal shone brightly, quickly forming an all-round orange-yellow spherical shield around him.

"Uhhh

The torrent of light elementals hit the spherical shield directly, quickly washing away and melting the surface of the shield, but it was unable to completely break it.

Not only that, the beam quickly dissipated, but Rivi's spell still didn't end.

Under his control, the orange-yellow spherical shield grew thicker and thicker, even resonating with the earth.

Countless rocks burst out of the ground, forming its limbs and skull with a spherical shield as its torso.

In just a few breaths, a rock statue twenty or thirty meters high stood on the ground, and with every step it made a deep pit in the ground.

"The seventh-order special spell "Orichalite Colossus" has been recorded.

Knowledge +130.

Effect: Spawns a colossus of Orichalcum with Orichalcum Essence as the core, possessing exceptional hardness and being able to move freely under the caster's control. ”

"It's a nuisance." Nolan frowned.

I actually know special spells, but I didn't expect this earth mage to come from a lot of background.

"How? You can't pierce my glandalbronze colossus. Levi sat cross-legged on the chest of the bronze statue and smirked.

"I'm not going to give you a chance, Olihasteel's arcane empire number one!"

As early as his mission, he was reminded by Roderick to be on the lookout for the White Raven and the various alchemical weapons made by Nolan.

Because before that, there were already three seventh-order mages in Shattered Star City who had been killed by them because of carelessness.

In addition, this time he exposed himself to the enemy's vision in order to destroy the road, so although he was rampant on the surface, he was actually fully prepared.

This seventh-order special spell "Orichese Bronze Colossus" is the capital he is confident that he can survive the enemy's targeting.

The orange-yellow crystal he wears on his chest is the mother of the Orichalcos, a specialty of the Oreja Steel Mountains.

It was through the study of the Yamachi Essence Mother that the Hagang clan created their own secret technique.

With it, Earth Mages can cast Earth spells with less mana.

That's why he still has the energy to cast a seventh-order spell after causing two earthquakes in a row and terraforming it.

Not only is the effect of the Orichalcum Essence Mother, but he can also strengthen some specific earth-based spells.

In fact, there is a normal seventh-order earth-based spell "Rock Colossus", and "Orichales" is a completely superior version of "Rock Colossus".

Compared to the "Rock Colossus", the "Orichal Colossus" created by the Orichalcum Essence Mother is not only larger in size, but also has better body hardness.

And in the area where the leylines are abundant, the power of the earth mage will be strengthened.

At this time, this oymagnum symbolizes the peak strength of Rivi, and it can defend against almost most attacks below the eighth order!

This is also why he has the confidence to boast about Haikou, and dares to say that he has no opponents below the eighth order!
