Chapter 59: A blow to the head of the fairy temple
Merriface believed that the combat power might not be enough to deal with the intruders this time, so she proposed to Midori No. 112 that the additional abilities of the blank class cards could be used to enhance the combat power.
In terms of position, Midori No. 112 is not as good as Merriface, but she has some Clawnpith blood, so she still has to leave in the form she needs to.
Midori No. 112 had no intention of refusing, but the reason was: "Isn't this a very cheap thing?" There was confusion in her tone.
Midori No. 112's words made the monks frown for a moment. As magic props, they are indeed cheap, but if ordinary monks want to buy extra, they will have to save several years of wages without eating or drinking -
—And this is a one-time thing.
"However, before that -" Melphis looked at the two demi-human monks, "Tianjin Crystal, Harbir."
The former's head is so short that it looks like it could be bitten to death, while the sleeves of the latter's monastic uniform are inexplicably bulging.
The two of them took off their monastic clothes with a huff, revealing more of their true appearance. They were the Yu Chong people and the Yi Ya people.
There are a small number of people in the human race who can fly, and there are also many human-sized elves who can fly, but they rely on magic or similar powers to fly; compared to them, the feather insects and winged humans rely on their own light weight.
A race that flies with wings.
They immediately understood and tried to flap their wings to take off. The conclusion was: no problem at all.
"It seems that what has been eliminated is the power of magical flight, not the power of flight." Melissa said almost to herself.
"Wait a minute, is the ghost ship's flight also magic?" Midori No. 112 asked hurriedly.
"Isn't this nonsense? Incorporeal ghosts and undead have no weight and can fly freely without any support. But there are physical undead chariots. The undead chariots are different from ghost battleships, right? Magic power is refined from life.
The power is just that the kinetic energy converted into negative energy equivalent to the life of the undead seems infinite and is not highlighted. Isn't this what you have researched?" Melissa asked rhetorically.
"...I'm sorry, I'm not responsible for the research and development of magic technology..."
"Um, okay, I'm really sorry for the misunderstanding. Now that we know that what is being eliminated is only a kind of magic and not a characteristic, it may be easier to handle. This may not be used." Melphis lifted the restriction
She put her class card away and stuck her head out of the alley, looking up at the flying battleship dominating the sky and showing off its majesty, her eyes flashing with light that represented her innate abilities.
When casting magic in this world, whether it is range magic or magic in the realm of enchantment, there is no such thing as avoiding injuries to teammates. Although the range can be precisely adjusted to allow teammates to avoid damage, or when the races or attributes of the opposing parties are completely different, race-specific and attribute-specific attacks can be carried out.
So that oneself will not be hurt, but precisely because of this——
"The flying battleship relied on a different flight method from ours to successfully stay in the air." She thought.
Although it is just her natural ability to see other people's blue channels clearly, it is naturally not the blue channels in the game interface. What appears in her eyes is a blue air column emerging from other people's bodies that looks like spiritual energy.
Depending on the situation, the direction of the flow may appear. Although it is not very obvious compared to the light of the air column itself, after holding the innate power for so many years, even the slight changes have been memorized by heart.
"Flowing around like air currents, that flying battleship floats in the air with the power of wind." The corners of Melphis' lips curled up, "Humph, I thought there would be some advanced method, but it's just like this
That’s it, it’s easy to handle.”
"Wind? We also rely on our wings to drive airflow when we fly, so what is the principle of your usual flight?" Halbir asked.
"A simple flying magic spell has nothing to do with the wind. It's a magical structure that allows the subject to move freely." Melphis replied.
"However, you said it relied on the wind to fly. How many wind-attribute magic chanters or magic props are needed for such a ship that is more than 100 meters long?" A monk asked in surprise.
"The truth will be revealed when you take it back and take it apart. As long as you understand the principle, like this -" Meliface stretched out her hand outside and opened the huge sixth-level magic circle.
"Come on directly? Why did you run away on the spot just now?" asked Midori No. 112.
"I'm worried that there are some high-level beings there who can forcibly lift the ship in the air by relying on brute force and ignoring the power of the indiscriminate forbidden air. If it's just the wind, it shouldn't be anything special. If one person can generate such wind, it will be flying.
We should use smarter means."
The enemy also saw Merriface's exaggerated spell-casting move, but no matter whether it was the ground troops arriving in separate groups or the flying battleships in the sky turning part of their guns, they couldn't catch up to Merriface's attack——
"[Triplet magic·control weather]"
As long as the opponent's moves require large-scale air control, using [weather control] to deal with it is definitely a tried and tested method - provided that most intelligent creatures cannot learn this and will not waste it.
It takes time to learn magic.
As the Fairy Miko, Meryphis is often responsible for organizing various public events in the temple, many of which require gathering people and nobles in the open air. What if there is no good weather? She has become proficient in using this magic.
Not only were the winds strong, but the direction of the tornadoes generated went directly against the airflow hovering under and around the flying battleship. Even if the people inside the flying battleship seemed to be trying to turn the tide, they could not prevent the battleship from falling.
"Want to make an emergency landing or leave my range? No way."
The second weather was filled with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and thunderclouds formed by secondary phenomena produced by magic. They struck down the battleships with masts like lightning rods because they were flying high, and contained the power of nature.
Thunder!
The flying battleships often erupted in big explosions, fires, and thick smoke at the moment of thunder.
Merriface breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was a little more powerful and had a function like [low-level physical neutralization], it would be able to block this seemingly powerful attack that relied on secondary phenomena.
The enemy has simply found a way to restrain the current combat system of the Fairy Temple, and seize the emptiness where Alice, Midori, and high-ranking fairies are not in the upper order. The combat power has not been substantially surpassed.
So, what is the enemy's purpose? If it is only to this extent, even if it can kill some Midori and cause losses to Titania, how can it withstand the fury of counterattack later?
"Boom!"
The flying battleship that had been showing off its majesty in the sky until just now crashed to the ground with a blaze of fire and was torn into pieces!
