“Saleen, we agreed on this earlier. There is still one more warehouse!” Inbosa glared furiously.

“Let’s talk about it again after we go back up.” Saleen did not refute him. In the current situation, who knew what the battle was like. His perception had been compressed within the warehouse. It was just the situation on the surface. The Bug Angel army was most likely facing difficulty in receiving aid from Floating City. Within an hour, he estimated that most of them had been lost.

If they did not go, would they have to wait until all of them were lost before giving up?

The Bug Angel Warriors all had an extremely high value. Their combat ability was much greater than that of the Holy See’s Blood Knights.

Inbosa huffed and allowed Saleen to step up first. The two left the underground warehouse and were able to see the ground’s surface. Grand Duke Iron Blood’s people had gathered in an orderly fashion by his side.

“Inbosa, we can’t search for it anymore. We have already lost a third of our army!” Grand Duke Iron Blood urged Inbosa.

“Duke, let me go and search for it. I will bring my own people!” Inbosa persisted.

“Alright, I will go with you as agreed on before. We will go for half an hour. If the army’s losses exceed half, then we will have to stop.” Grand Duke Iron Blood said.

Inbosa nodded in gratitude and glanced at Saleen. Saleen said, “I’ll give you half an hour.”

After arriving at the surface, his territory had expanded once more and was impacted by the city territory’s attacks. Saleen’s understanding towards the territory had become even deeper. He was able to contact Nailisi. On Nailisi’s side, Sika was about to leave.

“Let her go up to Floating City and bring away all of our Bug Angel Warriors.” Saleen gave this order to Nailisi and felt slightly more relaxed.

Inbosa took the lead. He stepped on his metal flyers and sped along the streets. Grand Duke Iron Blood followed closely behind him. Saleen followed behind using Jalin’s movement skills.

The smell of blood in the city was thick, causing Saleen to feel extremely uncomfortable. The blood in the air came from the Bug Angel Warriors, as well as Alchemy City’s mages. Of more than 20,000 Bug Angels, more than 5,000 had died. Even more of Alchemy City’s mages had died. After all, not just anybody was able to own a magical tower. The mages lived in tall buildings that were clustered together. After the Bug Angels drilled through them, the entire building had been adversely affected.

Only the mages who could fly were able to escape. However, there had been many Bug Angels wildly releasing wind blades in the sky.

The magical towers’ counterattack had been swift, fierce, and powerful, but the Bug Angels’ defense abilities were too strong and their flight was too fast, so it was difficult to aim at them. After the Elemental Hand’s nine grand mages had summoned the archangel, the situation had become even worse.

The archangel had brought out hundreds of metal angels and started a massacre inside the city.

The archangel had wanted to leave, but under the orders of the Elemental Hand’s elders, she had been intercepted and attacked by mages.

The archangel was about level 13, but she could not fly high within the city territory. She did not give up on the metal angels subordinates and did not want to leave alone.

There had been one person who was an exception. Nailisi held on to Sika and flew up from the ground. Sika’s soul beasts had all been put away and she had to rely on Nailisi to fly, which made her feel extremely strange.

Nailisi had regained her imp form and her tail was wrapped around Sika’s body. The two stuck together tightly. Nailisi’s Lightning Protection skill had been released, so they were encased by a blue electric current.

Sika felt that her entire body had gone limp and numb. Even if she was a nature priest, her resistance against such electric currents was not very strong.

It was thanks to the power of this electric current that Nailisi had broken through the restraints of the city territory and directly went up to a high altitude, flying towards Floating City. The nine great elders were all focused on the battle to surround and attack the archangel, and unexpectedly, none of them discovered that someone was flying.

Everyone trusted in the city territory too much. They thought that there would never be a person who could break through to the outside from within the city territory.

The archangel felt that her power was being forcefully suppressed within the territory and felt extremely uncomfortable. A metallic glow started to flash upon her pure white skin. It was the first time such an incident had occurred ever since she had attained the true power of life.

“Damn it. This is the Myers Continent?” The archangel looked all around, but felt that things were not right.

How could the mages on the Myers Continent have become so pitiful! The mages who had besieged the metal angels mostly released level 7 magic spells. There were some level 9 spells, and level 10 magic spells that were rare.

Wasn’t it said that the mages of Myers Continent all used level 10 magic spells as a sign of attack?

If this place was not the Myers Continent, how could the rules of this plane have such an obvious level of suppression upon her?

The archangel forcefully took fight, observing the surroundings. She saw the broken walls and ruins and mages fighting with the Bug Angels as well as Alchemy City’s army.

Really weak…

Hm? Were those Bug Angels?

The archangel had intelligence and had inherited many memories originating from the gods. She was able to recognize the Bug Angel.

It looked like the damned humans were battling the gods. Who cared whether or not this was the plane of the Myers Continent, she would first help the bugs out. Then…she could consider whether to kill the bugs or transform them into metal gods.

The archangel made up her mind to first treat Alchemy City’s mages as her enemy. Alchemy City was unlucky. The metal angels’ numbers were not big, but the combat ability of each one was equivalent to a strong level 10 person.

No matter how much the powers of the hundreds of metal angels were suppressed, it would still not decrease down to level 9. The city territory borrowed the aid of the rules of the plane.

The cuts from the metal angels’ epees were sufficiently threatening towards the safety of the magical towers. The nine grand elders had no choice but to suck it up and withstand it. They began to organize a comprehensive counterattack.

Alchemy City had always been on the offensive, but today they had to defend. It was a disgrace.

The Elemental Hand’s operations finally smoothened. Although the number of deaths became greater and greater, the nine grand elders had communicated thoroughly with all of the core mages and began to make arrangements for the battle.

In the city, 360 magical towers flashed. With the nine great magical towers as the core, they faced out layer by layer, forming a gigantic magic array. The destroyed magic amplifier slowly began to regenerate. After half an hour, the magic amplifier would be able to be activated once more.

Once the magic amplifier was activated, all of the mages and magical towers acknowledged by the Elemental Hand would have double the attack capabilities, and their battle-sustaining capabilities would be increased more than 10 times. It was the truly terrifying part of the magic amplifier.

Attack capabilities being doubled meant that the enemy’s defensive power would be decreased by one level.

The city territory originally had a rule that would reduce the defenses of enemies. In the core area of Alchemy City, the overlapping effects of combat meant that the defensive power of enemies would be reduced to a quarter of their original level.

In that half an hour, the Elemental Hand began to constantly use summoning skills. Creatures from all kinds of plans were summoned and fought with the metal angels. The archangel held her long spear and did not attack. She was only directing the metal angels. The intelligence of the metal angels was not considerably high. It was only with her directions that they were able to truly suppress those weak humans.

By summoning creatures, the city’s various kinds of defensive instruments began to demonstrate their might.

Under the guidance of the Elemental Hand, the alchemy crossbows were all fitted with barrels which had been infected with metallic poison. There were explosive arrows. There were even many magic arrows which had been purchased from Metatrin City through a middleman. Even Saleen did not know that he had sold items that had been purchased by Alchemy City.

The magic arrays had been sold by Saleen for a price that was cheaper by more than half of Alchemy City’s. Alchemy City’s manufacturing costs were not low. Purchasing them was cheaper than making them themselves.

The products of Metatrin City’s alchemic factory showed great quality. The explosive arrows were a rare type of alchemy crossbow barrel and were difficult to store. Furthermore, if the sharpness was insufficient, it would be difficult for it to inflict a fatal injury upon its target.

If the barrel exploded outside of heavy armor, it would become inferior to a rupturing arrow that could pierce through heavy armor.

The gigantic alchemy crossbow shot down from a height. It was only after it was embedded into the metal angel’s body that it would cause a severe explosion. This explosion would cause an elemental counterbalance, or even elemental turbulence, which would be fatal towards an elemental creature like the metal angel. Of course, it was not common. Its value was equivalent to a level 9 magic spell scroll.

Level 9 magic spell scrolls could only be used by a mage who was at least level 8. If it was the alchemy crossbow, a soldier and a magic apprentice would be able to operate it. That was why the alchemy crossbow was so expensive. There were too few level 8 mages. As for magic apprentices, Alchemy City could easily gather hundreds of thousands of them.

A large hole appeared in the metal angels who had been hit. It was difficult to heal the hole as it continuously eroded the metal angel’s body.

Once the archangel saw, it immediately aimed the long spear at the crossbowman on that floor.

The crossbowman panicked, fired three metallic explosive crossbow barrels in succession, and threw aside the alchemy crossbow and escaped with the magic apprentice.

Boom!

A red current hit the tall building. Half of the building, that had been built with magicite, was immediately destroyed by the energy current. The crossbowman had escaped quickly enough. He jumped along the side of the building with a long piece of rope tied around his body.

The archangel saw that the alchemy crossbow had been destroyed. There was no point in looking for the crossbowman. Instead, she directed the metal angels to attack the magical tower in front of them.

Saleen had gone along with Inbosa and arrived at the southwest part of the city. This time, Inbosa had a very easy time. He retrieved a gigantic metal puppet from his spatial equipment. The puppet was not an offensive model. After its four huge metallic legs expanded, a magic drill appeared at the bottom of the puppet.

Although the magic drill was valuable, it was much cheaper than the Dissolution Spell scroll.

There were complicated magic patterns on the drill. The puppet began to drill into the ground. Grand Duke Iron Blood and the Iron Blood Warriors cleared the surrounding magical towers for Inbosa. All of the warehouse’s surroundings were protected by magical towers. Fortunately, the magic amplifier had not regained its function, so the Iron Blood Warriors’ defensive powers still existed.

Saleen propped up his Water Shield helped Grand Duke Iron Blood while he was at it. Inbosa retrieved dozens of metal machinery, installing them onto his puppet and arranging it to form a last minute small metal fortress.
