"Aim at the combat airship at the front and launch!"
Following Lei Xiao's order, the main subordinates and our strong men all stretched out various staffs and guided their respective anti-aircraft spells to point at the target in the sky.
Dazzling magical lights began to light up on the dark mountain top.
I saw that the high-shooting spells cast by the subordinates were either condensed out of thin air on the top of the staff, or they launched large magic arrays containing attacks, causing waves of impressive energy to ripple out.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The golden beam brewing at the top of Ariel's staff first whizzed towards the target.
The anti-aircraft spells of other subordinates and strong men also shot out one after another.
Like meteors of various colors dragging their tails, they converged at high speed towards the fleet of airships that gradually became clearer in the night.
As for Lei Xiao, he also activated several fourth-level attack scrolls at once, and also directed all spells to targets high in the air.
For a moment, Ariel's golden beam, Orr's pale yellow wind cannonball, Chaoyan's blazing fireball, Lina's smooth bone gun, and the various spells fired by Lei Xiao and other strong men turned the dark night into chaos.
The reflection is colorful and the momentum is quite impressive.
Our soldiers who were fighting fiercely on the city wall battlefield saw that the attack on the aerial executioner had begun, their morale increased greatly, and they began to cheer for joy.
However, Lei Xiao and his subordinates on the top of the mountain could clearly feel it.
Under the weakening of the energy-driving magic circle, the spell strength has been weakened to a considerable extent, and the fourth-level powerhouse can still be better.
As for the anti-aircraft spells of the third-level experts, even though they were very powerful at first.
But in the process of galloping, the weakness was still visible to the naked eye, making the brilliance obviously not as good as before.
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty anti-aircraft spells fired by Lei Xiao and others shot straight into the sky and collided with the leading combat airship.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A deafening explosion sounded.
Along with most of the anti-aircraft spells, they hit accurately.
A series of violent explosions immediately swept across the target combat airship, causing the huge hull to begin to shake violently.
However, although the momentum is quite impressive, it is nothing more than that.
I saw that after the smoke gradually dissipated, even though the magic streamer covering the huge hull was extremely dim.
However, it was still not completely destroyed, so the target airship was still safe and sound, and it quickly resumed normal navigation.
"Is that true?"
Looking at this scene in the sky, Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath and his eyes became more solemn.
The anti-aircraft magic will gradually weaken with height, coupled with the weakening of the energy-driving magic circle, such a double blow.
Even if the magic is cast by a fourth-level powerhouse, its intensity may not be much higher than that of a normal third-level powerhouse.
In this case, as long as the opponent's defensive shield reaches level four strength, it will be difficult to defeat it in one fell swoop.
"Don't stop, keep casting!"
Even so, Lei Xiao had no time to think about anything else and immediately prepared for the second wave of attacks.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that after the attack was launched, the location here had been exposed.
We must start the next wave of attacks as soon as possible before the opponent launches a counterattack here.
While Lei Xiao and his team were doing their best to cast the second round of spells.
When the Black Duke, the instigator of all this, saw this, his face hidden under the hood was full of joking.
These 50 combat airships are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles. Each one is blessed with an extremely good absolute defensive barrier, especially enhanced resistance to anti-aircraft spells.
With this kind of perfect defense, coupled with the weakening of the energy-driving magic circle, how easy is it for the Lord Kongqing to successfully destroy a combat airship with only half-measured air defense power?
Furthermore, so what if a few ships are destroyed? The nightmare has just begun!
"Haha, Lord Kongqing, give up, your end has come."
Black mist filled the area around the Black Duke. While holding back Hong Ye who tried to escape several times, he became arrogant in his heart.
"No one can defeat this huge air fleet. This time the humble alien will definitely die!"
…
"Hahaha! The mantis is using his arms as a chariot, and he is overestimating his own abilities!"
At an altitude of 10,000 meters, in the cockpit of the flagship airship in a corner of the huge fleet.
A fat middle-aged man with a sinewy face and a black triangular captain's hat was sitting leisurely on the command seat, with the same playful look on his face.
He is the commander of this airship fleet, Chad, the second commander of the Airborne Blood Skull.
Chad crossed his legs, raised the goblet in his hand, drank the bright red liquid in one gulp, and said with a contemptuous laugh: "Even the regular troops from the Kingdom of Grim and the Iron Hand Islands have seen this.
We all have to stay away, not to mention a bunch of trash who don’t even know what aerial combat is!”
"Lord Chad is right. How can Leng Yan's little princess and those losers like Kong Qing City Lord be the opponents of Lord Chad?"
A thin adjutant with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came up with a wine bottle. He first poured wine for Chad, and then echoed: "As long as Wangxing City and the ants below are destroyed, the original city of Kongqing City Lord will be completely destroyed."
It’s up to me to deal with it!”
"Fanyin City, Gelin City, Lanleng Castle, Kongqing Town, Cishi Town, Mailan Town, and Luolong City... It seems that plundering so much wealth and women will keep us busy for a while."
The smile on Chad's greasy face was a little more vulgar, and he shook his head leisurely and said: "Fortunately, the eldest prince Lengyan is a stupid spendthrift, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get this piece of fat.
If this kind of thing can be crowned king, it would be a big joke, hahaha!"
"What Master Chad said is true. Such a good job is rare in a hundred years. The brothers have been eagerly preparing to show off their skills."
The skinny adjutant chuckled, licking his chapped lips and said: "I wonder what the lambs of the Cold Flame Kingdom are like. They are really exciting."
"Don't worry, it won't be long before we can have a good taste."
Chad put down the goblet in his hand, and the corners of his mouth curved into a cold arc on his fat and murderous face.
"Master Kong Qing, and the little princess Leng Yan, if you meet this commander, you will be unlucky. Your corpses will be trampled under my feet. Everything you have worked so hard for will belong to this commander!"
After he finished speaking, arrogant and unbridled laughter immediately resounded throughout the cockpit.
"Send the order and send out all the escort pterosaur puppets to destroy that kid's air defense position!"
…
"emission!"
Under the cold moon, on the mountain top where magic waves are surging.
With a wave of Lei Xiao's big hand, the second wave of attacks was fired out, turning into dazzling and deadly rays of light, still focusing fire on the airship at the front.
This time, I only heard a "crash, clatter, clatter" sound of the barrier breaking.
The combat airship at the front finally burst into a dazzling and shocking fire, and fell crookedly and quickly like a huge burning fireball.
Because this huge fleet of airships came across the Songyin Mountains.
Therefore, the airship that quickly burned up in the air, like a shriveled rag bag, quickly fell into the valley, causing a violent explosion.
"Very good!"
Seeing that she successfully shot down the opponent, Ariel immediately cheered with joy on her face.
However, there was no trace of ripples on Lei Xiao's tense face, but instead became more solemn.
According to the opponent's traveling speed, before the enemy fleet, which symbolizes death, arrives at Wangxing City.
We can shoot down at most one tenth, which is 5 ships. This is obviously a drop in the bucket for a huge fleet of 50 ships.
This is under ideal circumstances without any interference from the other party.
In addition, after the airship was shot down, the opponent quickly readjusted its formation and did not show any panic.
This undoubtedly means that even though they are notorious air pirates, the professionalism of the opponent's fleet is by no means inferior to those of regular military fleets with considerable strength.
"It seems that things are much more difficult than imagined."
Lei Xiao just frowned and thought of this.
A group of locust-like black shadows suddenly flew out of the vast fleet of airships high in the sky, rushing straight towards the mountain peak where Lei Xiao and others were.
"Lord, it's a pterodactyl golem puppet!"
Chaoyan soon discovered the true identity of the group of black shadows. He frowned and said: "The number is around 50, all of them are of the third level!"
"It seems that this is the opponent's escort force. Let them get closer, and then we will contain them and try to kill them all. This will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on our air combat forces."
The staff of nature in Lei Xiao's hand flashed with lightning, and a faint sound of thunder began to come from the top of the staff.
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao waved his hand, and all the divine arm archers appeared and began to draw their bows and unload their arrows.
After hearing Lei Xiao's order, the other subordinates also chanted in low voices and got ready for battle.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that the current situation could not be more obvious.
If we continue, there will be death and no life ahead, and we can only rely on another force on our side.
At the same time, on the other side of the mountaintop opposite.
Another dense black shadow sprang out at great speed, but in the direction of the huge group of airships.
Under the moonlight, hundreds of puppet knights riding puppet griffins and holding slender lances gradually became clear.
It was the 8 second-order sky knight squadrons summoned by Sarah and Xiao Zhao.
Under the control of Shala and Xiao Zhao, 800 second-order sky knights lowered their bodies, leveled their lances, and charged directly towards the right flank of the airship group.
This is undoubtedly the most powerful air combat force in Lei Xiao's hands, and it is also Lei Xiao's last resort at this stage.
Seeing this, the first batch of enemy pterosaur puppets that first appeared on the front line were about to turn around and support them.
However, they were forcibly intercepted by Sean and other pterodactyl knights and the sky pterodactyl, who were roaring towards them at extremely high speeds.
The two sides chased each other high in the air, and a fierce competition soon began.
Just as Lei Xiao expected, with the blessing of the Quick Walking Pill, the flying speed of Sean and others was obviously better.
Although the overall strength is only a quarter of the opponent's, with its high mobility, the opponent has nothing to do for the moment.
At this point, the enemy's pterosaur puppets were all restrained on the spot.
"Oh? There are about 8 squadrons in number and the strength is at the second level. Can they still summon Sky Knights of this size?"
Chad, who was in the cockpit of the airship, quickly noticed the appearance of our knight puppets with the help of a special induction array like radar, and smiled coldly.
"It's a pity that these toys can't do much for me, Commander."
Sensing the surging sky knights, Chad smiled contemptuously, without any panic, but began to command calmly.
As the second-in-command of the Air Pirates Blood Skull, although he has a violent and cruel personality, he also possesses extremely good commanding methods. There is no doubt about this.
Sooner or later, our sky knights were getting closer and closer.
The dozen or so airships on the right flank of the huge airship group suddenly shone brightly.
Immediately afterwards, fierce long-range attack spells, mixed with special magic artillery fire, began to shoot towards the Sky Knights like a violent storm.
Facing the roaring deadly spells, they exploded all around. Many of the sky knights who were caught off guard were directly shattered and turned into energy particles floating in the air again.
Although in the process of approaching the opponent, Lei Xiao specifically asked Sarah and Xiao Zhao to use a looser advance formation to avoid the opponent's attack as much as possible.
However, the opponent's firepower is too powerful, especially the range attack of the ship-borne magic cannon.
Therefore, before our Sky Knights arrived, we inevitably lost more than one-third.
However, under the clever and exquisite control of Sarah and Xiao Zhao.
Although the opponent's attacks became more fierce, our sky knights galloped and detoured in the night, and soon successfully reached the opponent's flank.
"Let me see how powerful the classic cavalry side attack tactic can be in the sky."
Lei Xiao did not hesitate and directly ordered Sarah and Xiao Zhao to start attacking.
After receiving Lei Xiao's instructions, Sarah and Xiao Zhao gathered their minds, divided the remaining sky knights into five squadrons, and then attacked the five nearest huge airships.
When they got closer, extremely sharp lances were thrown from the hands of the knights one after another, shooting towards the target.
Lei Xiao would naturally not let the limited number of sky knights charge towards the airship guarded by an absolute protective barrier. That would be like moths rushing to the flame.
After all, these behemoths in the sky are completely different from ordinary enemy soldiers.
On the other hand, concentrating hundreds of lances to attack one point will not necessarily be much worse than a frontal charge.
As long as the opponent's defensive barrier can be broken, the fragile and huge inflatable hull will undoubtedly become the best target.
On the increasingly splendid aerial battlefield, we saw our sky knights fighting left and right among the airships against the continuous attack spells fired by the opponent.
Just like a flexible small fighter plane, the old lance was thrown out, and the new lance condensed instantly, and then the next wave of attacks came.
Sure enough, just as Lei Xiao expected, under the intensive projection attack.
Not long after, the defensive barrier of a combat airship was shattered, and it began to fall crookedly into the deep mountains.
However, under the opponent's intensive barrage, the losses of our Sky Knights became more and more serious.
After shooting down 10 of the opponent's airships in succession, there were not many left.
"Are there actually 39 more ships?"
Lei Xiao looked at the still overwhelming group of airships and sporadic sky knights above his head, and began to sweat profusely.
The opponent was not injured, but our main air combat strength was almost completely lost.
This undoubtedly means that destruction will still come as scheduled.
Just when Lei Xiao clenched his fists and began to feel anxious.
