Chapter 525: Definitely Coming to Scold Me First

~7 min read 1,229 words

Not mentioning it made everyone forget; they all hurriedly looked outward.

The original Dragon Clan was already at a disadvantage, with numerous airships and sorcerers launching an assault on the Dragon race, while Hayden and the Ladder only held the rear.

Now Hayden had shifted due to the arrival of Ange and others, but the situation of the Dragons had not improved; instead, morale plummeted, because from their perspective, another Ladder had appeared in the void.

Although the newly arrived vessel had not deployed airships to fight, there was no doubt it was a Sorcerer Ladder, the enemy's reinforcements.

Already at a disadvantage, and now the enemy had brought reinforcements, so naturally morale plummeted; several Dragons could not help but turn and flee toward the depths of the void.

This was a very foolish move; the void is so vast, boundless, and getting lost inside likely means never finding a foothold, starving to death within it.

Dragons do not possess the survival ability of undead, but even undead dare not get lost in the void, because there is no soul energy here; after enduring for hundreds or thousands of years, even undead must perish.

Dragons cannot last even a few months; they will starve to death very quickly. One can only say they were panicked and chose blindly, unless they were familiar with the terrain, knew of another foothold nearby, or harbored wishful thinking, planning to hide for a while and return after the Sorcerer Alliance left.

"These guys are a bit weak," Lord Nai Ge Li Si said, poking his head out; since the battle did not require him, he naturally projected onto Seeing Ange to watch the fight, while also offering unsolicited advice.

In the void, communication can only occur through the soul, yet the range of communication is even greater.

Anthony tapped his Papal Scepter, and a solemn phantom rose from his body, enveloping him as he sped forward, while adding:

"Because there are no elements here, those elemental Dragons have little combat power and can only rely on sharp fangs and claws; yet Silver Dragons, whose speed depends on wind elements, cannot increase their speed without wind. The only ones with complete combat power are the Ancient Dragons and Black Dragons, but here..."

Everyone searched carefully but found no Black Dragons or Ancient Dragons; a crowd of elemental Blue Dragons, Green Dragons, and Red Dragons were clumsily brandishing their sharp fangs and claws, being driven into chaos by the Sorcerer Alliance's airships.

The people of the Sorcerer Alliance also thought reinforcements had arrived; they saw from afar a Sorcerer Ladder approach Hayden, and then Hayden vanished. Naturally, they assumed Hayden had gone to catch up on old times, not that he had been killed.

So now, when a horde of Angels, Dragons, and Lords of the Dead burst out of the later Ladder, everyone was unable to react.

A flash of light passed, and Fe Ti appeared on the deck of an airship; the armed sorcerers on the deck looked at him in utter bewilderment.

"Hello there," Fe Ti said, raising his hand high in greeting.

"Pur... purple-golden skeleton? Isn't that the Lord... Lord... Lord of the Dead?!" one of the armed sorcerers stammered.

Fe Ti nodded: "Correct." He brought his raised hand down, and his figure suddenly dove downward, smashing through the airship like a cannonball.

The armed sorcerers could only manage to protect their bodies before being blasted away by the powerful impact, scattering along with the shattered airship in all directions.

There was no need to kill anyone; in this void, breaking their airship was equivalent to capturing an entire airship full of sorcerers. Now they just had to wait to sweep the battlefield.

The Little Angel held the Staff of the Archangel, her light wings propelling her as she sped toward the enemy, then with both hands...

Before she could unleash the Holy Light Radiance, Seeing Ange, who had been prepared, tapped her on the head with a finger: "Ow!"

"Waa—ow—" The Little Angel pouted, unwillingly switching to another move. The head of the Staff of the Archangel grew brighter and brighter, then a sphere of light shot out, striking the shield of one airship before exploding violently.

As a combat angel, the Little Angel's fighting skills were extremely proficient; these were engraved in the Sacred Heart of the Spirit, which she had then consumed, just like the bloodline inheritance of Dragons.

Yet this creature loved to unleash her ultimate move at the start; a single Holy Light Radiance would consume most of her power, wasting the majority of her combat strength.

The Little Zombie summoned his Soul Armor but did not advance; instead, he stayed close beside the Little Angel, always ready to block attacks for her.

Silba transformed into a Black Dragon and fiercely lunged forward. His appearance greatly boosted the morale of the Dragon Clan: "A Black Dragon?! It's Black Dragon Darhan; wasn't he petrified by the Undead King? How did he come here?"

Although the reason remained unclear, the fact that the Black Dragon had come to help them was beyond doubt, and the morale of the Dragon Clan immediately increased significantly.

Du Luo Ken removed his hat and pulled out metal spheres one by one, releasing them.

After these metal spheres were released, they flew faster and faster, rolling forward continuously, as if a little hamster inside was pedaling a wheel.

As their speed continuously increased, once they accumulated enough velocity, the metal spheres curved and shot toward the airships.

Upon high-speed impact with the airship's protective shield, the metal spheres instantly exploded into countless fragments, rolling across the shield until they covered it entirely; with a crackle-flash, the shield actually shattered.

"Huh? What is the principle behind this?" Lord Nai Ge Li Si, seeing this scene, asked in surprise.

"Elemental decomposition, hehe. Thanks to my lord having so many World Tree branches, this substance with strong decomposition properties allowed this theoretical counter to shields to succeed. I call it 'Shield Counter.' How about that?" Du Luo Ken said.

As if hearing someone mention him, the God of Life poked his head out in a daze, then was startled by the pitch-black void: "So desolate; not a trace of life's breath."

With the protective shields gone, the difficulty of destroying the airships dropped sharply; even arrows could now shoot directly at the sorcerers on the decks.

However, the results still depended on Seeing Ange. He was seen drawing the Spear of Lei Ting and throwing it with force.

The distant airships never even realized they were under attack before they exploded entirely into fragments, scattering apart.

The Spear of Lei Ting slowly reformed, then was thrown again by Seeing Ange; one airship after another exploded into fragments.

The distant Sorcerer Ladder finally realized the situation was irretrievable. Combined with Hayden's failure to return, they likely also realized Hayden was probably dead, so they no longer cared about the airships and vehicles ahead and took it upon themselves to turn toward the depths of the void.

Fe Ti wanted to pursue, but Anthony called him back: "Don't chase. If you kill everyone, who will go back to deliver the message?"

"Huh? Deliver the message? Shouldn't we kill everyone to prevent information leakage? They saw Fe Ti fighting alongside the Archangel," Lord Nai Ge Li Si asked, confused.
