The Wizarding Age

Gagaga...

With a burst of noisy and piercing ga-ga cries, the scattered fire crows suddenly exploded, choosing to stay away from the goblin convoy and circling outside the range of the artillery attack.

They no longer charged on a large scale, but formed attack teams in twos and threes, constantly rushing into the vicinity of the convoy from all directions, and continuously corroding the energy shield with sticky fire liquid. Once the attack was completed, they quickly withdrew from the artillery attack area and continued to circle outside waiting for an opportunity.

The number of combat magic machines was not too large, not enough to overturn all the skies around the position. And once their artillery fire was dispersed, the lethality to the fire crows would not be so great.

"Huh?" Seeing this scene, the goblin commander Pike was stunned and muttered to himself: "Is there a leader among this group of fire crows?"

Most adult fire crows are level 1 monsters. Although their strength is good, their intelligence level is obviously not comparable to that of humans. Only when a level 1 advanced or level 2 fire crow queen is born, the intelligence of the entire group will be significantly improved.

Only a higher-level Fire Crow King could have such wisdom, see through the flaw that the goblin convoy could not move quickly, and take the initiative to evacuate the battlefield.

Pike immediately picked up the binoculars and tried to find the Fire Crow King among the flying Fire Crows. Sure enough, following the direction of the cry just now, Pike saw an exceptionally majestic and huge strange Fire Crow.

On its head, there was even a circle of golden feathers, and from a distance it looked like it was wearing a strange crown.

It seems that this guy has not only become the leader, but also has the tendency to evolve into a king!

"Mane, pay attention to the position xxx, the Fire Crow King of xxx, I want you to take the magic machinery team to shoot it down! The convoy will provide you with fire protection..." As soon as the main target was found, Pike immediately issued a battle order.

Mane, the captain of the magic battle team, who was hiding in the battle magic machine and was struggling to attack the fire crow, turned his body upon hearing this, and immediately locked onto the strange-looking fire crow through the tactical goggles and the hidden triangular window.

"Go, shoot down that ugly turkey for me!"

In its extremely arrogant and shrill laughter, 11 battle magic machines rushed out of the energy shield, firing fiercely while approaching the target area.

After hundreds of years of technological updates, the current battle magic machines are no longer comparable to the old-fashioned steam machines of the past.

The standard equipment of the PG-52 battle magic machine is two Mark 2 magic cannons on the shoulders, two magic rapid-fire cannons on the chest, and a quadruple magic ray gun on the arm. There are also sixteen rounds of goblin missiles in the weapon bag behind...

Such a powerful firepower makes the PG-52 battle magic machine completely comparable to a level 2 wizard. At least on the front battlefield, the metal magic machinery squads lined up in dense battle formations can be called battlefield sweepers.

Wherever they go, goblin missiles slowly rise into the sky and plunge into the fire crows with piercing screams. The exploding warheads are filled with a large number of metal projectiles and arcane crystal fragments. They explode continuously in the air, and the scattered metal projectiles can completely overturn a large area of ​​space.

Although flying monsters such as fire crows have excellent magic resistance, otherwise they cannot easily pass through the cracks in space. However, they lack hard scales on their bodies, and their physical defense is much inferior.

Therefore, facing the overwhelming metal barrage, the fire crows were beaten with feathers flying, black blood splashing, and fell from the sky with a shrill scream.

But more fire crows exploded angrily, rushing towards the battle magic machinery squad with protruding energy shields from all directions. The fire liquid arrived before the birds!

A series of fire liquids spurted towards the magic machine team.

"Open the shield... open the shield... remember to open the shield!" Mane's scream resounded through the communication crystal.

The hubs of the corners of the combat magic machines flipped over, revealing diamond-shaped crystals, and quickly propped up energy shields of various shapes under the infusion of magic energy. The protection of these energy shields alone may not be too strong, but when they are superimposed and shielded, they have a larger protection angle and higher defense toughness than the original version of the magic energy protection shield.

Taking advantage of the energy shields blocking the fire liquid spitting from all directions, the combat magic machine team fired crazily with all their might. One by one, the magic energy cannons and rapid-fire cannons sprayed out energy fireballs of varying sizes, blasting the swooping fire crows into blood mist. And the quadruple magic energy ray guns installed on their arms made a continuous sound, using scorching rays or frost rays to knock the fire crows down from the sky.

In the communication channel, the crazy roars and screams of the goblin mechanics filled the air.

At this time, there was no need to bother with any tactical command. Blocking the enemy's attack and pouring all their own artillery fire on the enemy, this was the only thing they could do!

The goblin convoy in the rear also shifted their guns over, using dense artillery volleys and missile attacks to clear the road ahead for them.

This was a cruel trail paved with the remains of fire crows and bloody and fleshy fragments!

The siege of the fire crows was not without any results. After leaving the shield of the energy light shield, the single magic machine protection could not take care of every corner after all. Therefore, under the dense siege of the crazy fire crows, the energy shields of the combat magic machines were corroded or exploded, and then they could only rely on the solid metal shell to withstand the invasion of the fire liquid.

Since the battle, the Magic Machinery Squad has rushed out 700 meters and penetrated deep into the Fire Crows, killing and injuring nearly 300 Fire Crows. They also lost two Magic Machinery.

All of them fell down because their metal shells were burned through by the fire liquid, which caused a huge explosion. Naturally, there was no reason for the goblin mechanics inside to survive.

At this moment, there were less than 200 Fire Crows left in the original huge group.

The Fire Crow King was obviously extremely angry and led his guards to attack the Magic Machinery Squad.

The fire liquid they sprayed was obviously more powerful and corrosive than ordinary Fire Crows. Two more Magic Machinerys were burned through the armor, and then the Fire Crow King nailed the Goblin Mechanic to death in the cockpit with a fire liquid arrow.

However, facing the joint stranglehold of the Goblin Caravan and the Magic Machinery Squad, the Fire Crow King obviously could not find more attack opportunities. After all, the range of the fire crows' fire spray attack is only 100 meters, while the attack range of the magic machinery team covers 300-700 meters.

If the goblin missiles are also counted, the maximum attack range is up to 1500 meters!

Such a huge gap makes the fire crows have to use their flesh and blood to resist the attacks of artillery and energy rays. In the end, the fire crows were naturally defeated!

Finally, the fire crow king admitted defeat, and withdrew from the battlefield westward with a cackle.

In order to avoid the fire crows running around and bringing disaster to the goblin town, the goblin convoy could only chase them closely behind, and the two sides fought and retreated all the way away.

And such scenes, the same scenes also appeared in various corners of the goblin plane.

Fortunately, the goblin plane is a typical low-magic plane. Even if the magic tide comes, the plane environment still rejects magic so severely. Therefore, overly powerful monsters or strange creatures simply disdain to visit here, and their targets are more focused on those higher planes.

In addition, the original number of monsters in the goblin plane cannot form a scale, let alone pose a strong impact on the goblins who are all mechanized.

Therefore, since the outbreak of the magic tide, except for sporadic goblin towns that suffered heavy losses from attacks by strange monsters, large-scale casualties are still rare!

However, not all planes are as "lucky" as the goblin plane.

Almost all material planes are facing internal and external attacks due to the impact of the magic tide.

There are invasions of star beasts, disaster creatures and strange creatures outside, and beasts with magical creatures inside... For a time, all the people in power and the ruling class were overwhelmed and busy.

Even if they guarded tightly, they could not stop the infiltration of demons from other worlds, let alone the surge of beasts from the ancient forest. Therefore, some incompetent people in power could only choose to abandon some civilians and territories, and concentrate the little power they had to protect their manors and property.

As for those abandoned territories and civilians, they could only pray for good luck!

After all, they lacked the protection of extraordinary power. Even if only a 1st or 2nd level monster broke in, it could cause them a huge and unimaginable disaster.

Among these many small and medium-sized planes, many intelligent races that originally occupied a dominant position gave the enemy the opportunity to rise due to mistakes in dealing with the magic tide. As a result, many planes also broke out in internal "revolutions" and realized the change of the ruling class.

However, no matter how hard they tried to stabilize the plane environment, a huge turmoil and chaos that swept all planes still broke out!

Many wise men and scholars in the planes unanimously called this chaotic and turbulent era the "Dark Age". What made them feel desperate and angry was that according to past experience, this "Dark Age" might last for a hundred years...

A hundred years... For most plane creatures, this is their lifetime!

…………

When darkness falls, there is pain and there is happiness!

At this moment, the people living in the Elovis region feel particularly happy.

After the outbreak of the demonic tide, rumors of the invasion of monsters and star beasts have been heard from all over the central part of the continent. There have even been horrifying incidents in some areas where entire villages and towns were swallowed up by monsters.

The more such rumors are heard, the more the tranquility of the Elovis region is highlighted.

After all, this is the territory of the Crimson Family, and it has become the core area of ​​the central part of the target continent. Therefore, there are many more top wizards gathered here than elsewhere.

Their existence is usually not noticeable, but when the real crisis comes, it becomes extremely precious.
