Chapter 547: Mission Failed

on some manpower when necessary.This way, it wouldn't anger the Empress, would protect Zhao's important military leaders, and would leave Fengming speechless. It was the most appropriate strategy for...The three of them had cooperated before, so they moved swiftly. Lian Ri stood at the front, opening her attack magic array and inserting Lei Yao Jian into the center. Lei Yao Jian summoned heavenly thunder with practiced ease.

Leia followed closely behind, opening her fire magic array. Heavenly flames instantly layered on top of Lian Tian's opened formation, creating a surge of power. Laye witnessed the combination of fire and thunder elements and immediately opened his wind magic array, bolstering the strength of both fire and thunder, condensing them into a massive vortex that charged towards the powerful mage.

The combined magical formation used by the three caused a certain amount of trouble for the Archmage, forcing him to divide his attention. While he used the formation to attack the Archmage guarding the ship, he also had to focus on countering the attacks of the three.

The last remaining Golden Knight had already been strangled under Helena and Grey's joint attack. Raul shielded Golya away from the center of the fight, worried that there might be other hidden enemies on board. Therefore, Raul activated a miniature magic array, protecting himself and Golya in the middle.

After dealing with the knight, Helena and Grey quickly darted to Raul and Celia's side.

"Grey, you go help them. I'll take care of protecting Coralia and Raul."

Helena stood beside Raoul's outstretched magic circle, whispering.

"Okay, be careful yourself."

Gray didn't act emotionally, gripping his sword and charging forward, starting to break up the opponent's attacks.

The two powerful mages were evenly matched before, but after the Ripple's arrival, the attacking mage was disrupted and his defenses were broken by the seated mage on the spaceship.

The powerful mage, shrouded in a black robe, sensed something was amiss. Instead of dodging, he met the attack head-on. He split his own magical formation in two, smashing it into the formations on either side. Then, grasping his staff, he vanished from the spaceship.

"Look out!"

Rpples shouted a reminder to Leia and Raje, that as mid-level mages, they would definitely be hurt by this high-level mage's attack. After all, there was a two level difference.

Leia and Raje almost simultaneously retracted their magical formations, then used their wands to leave the previous location.

The ripple did not choose to recall the magic circle, she was going to use her own magic circle to buffer the opponent's attack, but she immediately recalled the Lei Yao sword into space.

Two deafening explosions echoed, followed by a burst of golden light. The ship's shields and deck were shattered. Even as they fled, the enemy seemed intent on making life miserable for those aboard.

The spaceship's deflector shield shuddered twice, then began to slowly fade. In the next moment, it vanished completely. The deck was breached by a hole the size of a well thanks to the counter-magic of the ripple array, at least preventing the ship from being destroyed entirely.

The Great Mage of the Watchers, Ben frowned deeply, leaped into the air, flipped his magic staff, and opened a larger golden magical array that held the spaceship aloft. Then the array shrunk, encasing the spaceship and replacing the shield.

The attack came fast and ended just as quickly. The battle was over within an hour, and once the people on board the spaceship confirmed its stability, they walked onto the deck. Looking at several underage boys and girls, everyone was amazed.

The great wizard who was in command of the starship landed gracefully on its deck, looking at Ripples and the others. He opened his mouth and spoke in a faint voice:

"Were those people coming for you"

It should be!

The ripples bowed respectfully and said.

Leia, followed by Grey, stepped forward and bowed before speaking: "My name is..."

"I'm Leia Hanni, and this is my knight Grei. We are traveling together to train."

"I am Lianne Rodman, this is my mage Larray!" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I am pharmacist Raul Mues."

"I am Corlyia Nasci, this is my knight, Helena."

The Great Mage Ben Caso, upon hearing this string of names, felt an urge to rub his temples. It didn't matter what these attackers wanted; the important thing was to ensure the safety of these little ones. At least, they couldn't get into trouble on his flagship.

"I understand. Come with me to the hold; I've already informed someone to meet us."

Thank you, Great Magician!

After the battle, everyone, especially the three underage ripples, were completely drained. They obediently followed Ben back to his territory to recover.

The spaceship's speed had noticeably slowed down, and sea monsters were intermittently probing the ship with attacks, trying to get at the delicious things inside.

He had kept the magic circle open, which was a heavy drain on his power. He had to slow down for safety, waiting for reinforcements to arrive, and also preventing that escaped archmage from returning.

Although he was confident in his own abilities, not being inferior to the opponent, he had to consider the people on the spaceship and couldn't go all out. This made him somewhat passive.

Although these powerful clans' children are quite capable, and their bodyguards are no slouches either, the attackers were unable to gain any advantage. They ended up dying miserably with most of them perishing. I believe they won’t be able to organize a truly effective attack anytime soon.

Half an hour after the spaceship continued on its journey, two powerful mages appeared above it using a magic circle. Certain that they were there to pick up their companions, they opened the magic circle and allowed the two mages to enter the spaceship.

With three great mages watching over them, the next hour's journey went smoothly. When the airship landed at the port, Ripples and his companions had mostly recovered. They thanked Ben gratefully before leaving the port.

As he watched several people leave, he turned to his companion and said:

“They truly are elite members of a powerful family. They faced the attacks with composure and handled them effortlessly. Three intermediate mages were able to harass my high mage by layering magic circles, giving me an opportunity to counterattack. They are capable, decisive, and not arrogant – they are indeed good children.”

It seems the rumors that they found something unusual about the phantom beasts and the Hill of Souls weren't just made up.

"It shouldn't be."

Those who were being discussed could feel the gaze of the three great mages and involuntarily quickened their pace. After leaving the harbor, they mounted their silver-armored steeds and, with a clear objective, galloped straight towards Silverwheat City.

La Ye had already reported the news of their ambush to the head of the family. At this time, he patted his horse's belly and came to Lian Yi's side, saying softly:

"Master, do you think this was the Eldest Master's doing"

"Did you find anything"

"Currently unavailable."

"Then don't just speculate randomly, it's very destructive to the brotherhood between the two of us."

Ripples said carelessly.

"Do you still have brotherhood"

La Ye muttered softly, but when Ripples looked over, he immediately smiled and said:

"Rest assured, young master. Whether it's him or not, the head of the family will find out. He asked me to tell you to focus on raising your mage level in Silverwheat City."

"I got it!"

After finishing the topic, the two of them quickened their pace.

On the other side, Kenny received the mission failure message, and almost the entire squad that took the mission was wiped out. The other party directly canceled this mission.

Kenny didn't expect this outcome. He turned to report back to the young master, but as soon as he took a step, he saw Conner Rodman. powerful spirit, severing the contract we made."The pale woman retracted her resentful gaze and stared at Gao Yang with cold eyes."How could this be!"Gao Yang was also surprised for a moment, then im...
