Chapter 417: Debut of the First Generation Fighter
The rhythmic ticking echoed continuously on the airship. Sanchez's mind shook as his urgent expression gradually cooled down after decrypting the information. He immediately spoke.
"Now, everyone, turn around!"
Alec, filled with anger and joy, along with the other airship operators, heightened their focus and steered the airships for a change in direction. It was time for their counterattack!
While Sireid rode a massive fire dragon wreaking havoc in the sky, he failed to notice that these airships were not simply fleeing. Several dozen airships quietly changed course, quickly forming an array under Lynn's command, and one after another, lightning illuminated each airship.
"Chain Lightning!" "Thunder Prison—Lightning Storm!"
Over fifty Thunder Wizards simultaneously cast spells, creating an electromagnetic field covering a radius of hundreds of meters in an instant.
By the time Sireid realized something was wrong, the blue-purple lightning had already filled his entire field of vision. The magical barrier around him cracked under the violent arcs, and the speed of his lava fire dragon, beneath him, slowed down.
Subsequently, dozens of concentrated laser beams swept in from all directions. The lava fire dragon, unable to dodge due to paralysis, was like a massive target and was quickly hit.
The most powerful laser, originating from Lynn, struck the dragon's neck, tearing through the tough scales, and lava-like blood sprayed, dyeing the sky red...
However, the other laser beams were not as potent, only leaving small scars on the tough scales, not even breaking through the defense.
"So resilient!" Lynn marveled inwardly.
The strongest laser magic was, of course, his creation, yet it couldn't kill the target directly.
The other beam magics were even less effective, unable to cut through the dragon scales.
To avoid friendly fire, Lynn had the airship array spread out, reducing the power of the lasers to some extent. However, their inherent strong armor-penetrating capabilities were enough to cut through metal, and now, breaking through the defenses was difficult...
Even with the recent successful hit from the machine guns, the continuous strafing was not enough to harm the opponent.
"Kill these blasphemers!" "Charge, charge!"
Thunderous shouts filled the air as hundreds of Gryphon Knights, high-spirited, rushed towards the outer perimeter of the airborne fleet, determined to erase the shame of repeated defeats!
However, before their words could fade, the thunderous sound of machine guns rang out. Several Gryphon Knights, who led the charge with shouts of "charge," were engulfed in a hail of bullets in full view of everyone, their bodies turned into sieves.
"Damn, what's going on?" "Where's the enemy?" "Ambush, ambush!"
Piercing cries echoed in the sky. The previously high-spirited Gryphon Knights were suddenly thrown into chaos.
Several invisible fighter jets, enhanced with polarization magic, zoomed past. The flames from the machine guns flashed in the air, and the barrage of bullets instantly pierced through the Gryphon Knights' bodies, tearing them apart.
Blood splattered, and cries of agony were heard one after another.
Although Gryphons had astonishing senses of smell, optical invisibility had minimal effect on them. However, the speed of the fighter jets was too fast for them to determine the enemy's position purely based on smell.
Under the cover of polarization magic and darkness, these fighter jets seemed like invisible reapers, continuously harvesting the lives of the Gryphon Knights.
During this period of counterattack to reclaim the king, the wizards in the alchemy workshop had once again produced four modified magic fighter jets. The pilots were selected from the wizards, and even though some were lacking in training, it was more than enough to deal with these Gryphon Knights.
Lydia, with the most skilled piloting, aimed her target at the massive lava fire dragon within the airship array.
As the button for firing the machine guns was pressed, the guns mounted on the wings opened again, and the linked barrage kept striking the dragon's spine. Sparks splattered, emitting a muffled clash of steel.
"So tough!" Lydia exclaimed similarly to Lynn. After all, the fighter jet's machine guns used not lead bullets but more powerful fixed ammunition, yet it failed to pierce the dragon scales.
However, Lydia was not discouraged. She directly increased her speed to the extreme and charged straight at the gigantic fire dragon in front of her...
