Chapter 383 - 383 Tit for Tat, Home Ground
383 Tit for Tat, Home Ground
“Swoosh—”
The roar of a peacock resounded in the sky, and the Five-Color Peacock spread its wings and flew. The five-colored light was even more gorgeous than the splendid light of dusk. The powerful aura of a level-7 magical beast covered an area of 50 kilometers!
Norton waved his hand and released the Sacred Mist Ferry from his storage ring. The members of the Nicholas family flew to the deck of the ferry one after another. The flying ferry soared into the sky and stopped more than a thousand feet in the air, facing north. On the deck, everyone’s expression was solemn as they looked at a shadow sailing over from ahead.
That shadow was also a ferry, and it was not inferior to the Sacred Mist Ferry! The flying ferry opposite was getting closer and closer. Norton and the others gradually sensed a lot of information on the flying ferry. The person on the ferry did not seem to plan to hide. He openly revealed his magical aura and also used his soul power to scan the Sacred Mist Ferry. The two sides met and greeted each other.
!!
Zoro raised his eyebrows and could not help but sigh.
“Such a huge show of force… It looks like the Gale Wind Island is determined to obtain this Magic Stone Mine. Have they sent all the top combatants on the island over?”
Norton’s expression was solemn. “Who would be willing to give up the largest Magic Stone Mine in 5,000 years of the Sebastian Kingdom? I’m afraid there’s no room for compromise.”
Both sides had sent out most of their top combat strength, so it was impossible for them to take it lightly. They would either win or lose. Cooperate and develop? Win-win situation? This was just a fool’s dream. Everyone wanted to monopolize the benefits. It was not just the other party who was aggressive, the Nicholas family had also not thought of giving in. Otherwise, they would not have sent so many of their core combat strength so quickly.
On the opposite side, the Gale Wind Island was the lowest among the four large factions of the Sebastian Kingdom. Of course, to be able to rank in the top four of the Sebastian Kingdom’s magical world and have more than 10,000 years of legacy, the foundation they had accumulated was naturally deep, and their combat strength was also very powerful. Thousands of years ago, the Gale Wind Island had even been ranked first among the factions of the Sebastian Kingdom. However, this faction later lost a few Divine Magi in succession, and their combat strength naturally weakened. Up to now, there were a total of seven Divine Magi in the entire Gale Wind Island.
Currently, on the ferry flying toward the Nicholas family, there were six Divine Magi!! As for the experts of the Great Archmage realm, there were nearly a hundred! The flying ferry from the Gale Wind Island was charging over with a fierce momentum, and there were more than a hundred Magi standing on the deck of the ferry. At the front of the team stood the six Divine Magi. Feng Da was also among them, but he was standing a little to the side, and to the back. Standing in the center and the foremost was a green-robed old man with white hair and wrinkled skin. His name was Pang Mo. He was the former Island Master of Gale Wind Island. He had retired for many years and was currently at level-7 of the Divine Mage realm!
Apart from Pang Mo and Feng Da, the magical power levels of the other four Divine Magi were level-1, level-2, level-4, and level-5, respectively. These hundred plus people faced the Nicholas family opposite which had come with four level-1 Divine Magi and a high-grade level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast. It looked like they could not compare with the number of people from the Gale Wind Island.
“How dare four level-1 Divine Magi fight against the Gale Wind Island?”
“Hehehe, are you guys here to court death? I won’t hold back.”
“That Divine Mage from the Divine Mountain Immortal Island that you guys have a friendship with won’t come out to help you this time, right? She had even said that she would kill and we would die. What a joke!”
“You dare to kill the Venerable Wind Punisher? I’ll definitely teach you a lesson!”
“In my opinion, we should just kill them all. They don’t look like one who knows how to behave.”
“…”
Everyone on the Gale Wind Island sensed the sweeping soul power of the Nicholas family and smiled coldly. On the deck where more than a hundred people were standing, the magical energy in many of them was surging faintly. It was obvious that they were already accumulating strength.
Soon, the flying ferry from the Gale Wind Island sailed to a location nearly a kilometer away from the Nicholas family and stopped opposite the Sacred Mist Ferry. The two flying ferries faced each other. In the sky above, a Five-Color Peacock was circling in the air. The powerful aura of a level-7 magical beast pressed down directly. Many of the Great Archmagi on the deck of the Gale Wind Island ferry felt the pressure deep within.
“Hmph!” Pang Mo snorted coldly, a cold light appearing in his eyes. He watched as the powerful magical beast aura enveloping the ferry suddenly dissipated without doing anything.
The Five-Color Peacock let out a roar of shock and anger, restraining the dense magical aura that had been too ostentatious earlier.
Pang Mo did not look at the level-7 magical beast circling in the sky. Instead, he looked calmly at Zoro and the others opposite him and said sternly, “Heh! The Nicholas family has quite the air, and had even showed off your might to us from Gale Wind Island.”
Outside the Sacred Mist Ferry, a transparent barrier appeared faintly, isolating all the pressure from the Gale Wind Island. However, facing nearly a hundred Great Archmagi and six Divine Magi, everyone on the deck was a little nervous, especially some of the retainers. The fear in their eyes could not be concealed at all.
Norton was neither servile nor overbearing as he looked directly at the hundreds of Magi opposite him.
“Gale Wind Island, are you sure that you want to snatch this Magic Stone Mine from the Nicholas family?” These words were direct. Pang Mo’s eyes flickered a few times as he retorted.
“I also want to ask this. Is the Nicholas family sure that you want to go against Gale Wind Island?”
Norton did not back down. “The Nicholas family has no intention of going against anyone, but we have made a great effort to find this mine. Of course, we won’t give it up.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Da interrupted. 𝑓𝗿𝚎𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣𝗻𝘰𝘷e𝘭.c𝘰𝗺
“How laughable! This Magic Stone Mine was found by our Gale Wind Island a few months ago. We had other plans, so we did not announce it. Your Nicholas family has appeared suddenly to snatch it first. You’re clearly treating the Gale Wind Island as a pushover!”
Upon hearing Feng Da’s shameless words, many members of the Nicholas family rolled their eyes. He was simply spouting nonsense! Everyone had already guessed this and could not be bothered to argue with them.
Norton said in a low voice, “Don’t say such meaningless things. In short, if the Gale Wind Island insists on snatching the Magic Stone Mine, the Nicholas family will fight you!”
Pang Mo sneered and announced, “Hehe, very well! Alright, let’s fight!”
𝑓r𝘦𝘦𝘄eb𝒏𝙤vel.c𝙤𝙢
“The outcome of today’s battle will determine who owns this Magic Stone Mine!!”
Norton smiled, his expression as usual. “We agree.”
“Alright! Then I’ll experience your family clan’s immortal-tier magical power today!”
Killing intent appeared in Pang Mo’s eyes. As he spoke, he exploded the might of a level-7 Divine Mage’s magical power in his body. He raised his hand and condensed countless ice blades, sweeping them toward the Nicholas family’s ferry with a violent wind!
On the deck of the Sacred Mist Ferry, Norton’s eyes flickered. He exploded the magical power in his body. Instead of using magical power, he made a magic formation.
Buzz!
In an instant, the whole world shook slightly. Countless golden runes appeared in the void, and a barrier condensed in the middle of the two ferries, blocking Pang Mo’s magical attack!!
This was only the beginning. The magic formation continued to spread out… In the middle, there was a magic formation barrier that enveloped Norton and the others. Then, a larger magic formation enveloped the two flying ferries. Then, layers of magic formations appeared outside. Layer by layer, a total of seven layers, they enveloped the 500-kilometer void!!
This was one of the benefits of the Nicholas family being the first to arrive at the battlefield! In the set-up of Norton, the grandmaster of magic formations, this area was already the main battlefield of the Nicholas family!!
