“Why am I sensing the Aura of a Super Spell?” the soldier who had led Mo Fan and his crew into the trap exclaimed.

“Impossible, no one can use a Super Spell under the influence of my choir!” Cook snarled.

Wolf Chief stared at Mo Fan, like he was trying to open up Mo Fan’s body with a scalpel and dig out his secret of being able to use his Lightning Magic under the Sound Magic’s disturbance.

“It’s most likely his Super Power!” Wolf Chief frowned with a gloomy expression.

To think that the guy was a Super Mage who had Awakened a Super Power. He had really underestimated this trio!

“Super Power?” Cook was startled.

He thought only old Super Mages could possess Super Powers. The young man was in his twenties at most. How did he Awaken a Super Power, not to mention it was related to the naturally strong Lightning Element?

“Humph, so what if he has a Super Power? There’s no way he can take on so many people by himself!” Wolf Chief grinned.

Wolf Chief was jealous, yet he felt a lot better when he thought the young man was going to die soon.

Human wave attacks had always been the most powerful strategy in the world!

Even though only a few Super Mages would possess Super Powers, the Mages of the Brown Army were everywhere. They just had to construct a single Star Orbit to kill a Super Mage by abusing their numbers!

“Don’t be scared of him. He’s almost at his limit!” Wolf Chief called out.

“Commander, it’s all you now!” Cook yelled at a Caucasian woman.

The woman had a pointy nose, yet her face was oddly masculine. The lines on her face were too distinguished for a woman.

She was as tall as most men, and her eyes were cold and firm, like a soldier who had undergone proper training.

“Raise the Fleet Shell!” the commander ordered firmly. She had no interest in the grudge between Wolf Chief, Cook, Mo Fan, and his crew. Her only desire was to end the fight as quickly as possible!

In six hours, the Federation would be launching its counterattack. That was the real battle she was waiting for.

The fight here was like a little brawl. It did not matter how strong the three Mages from the Orient were. They were merely struggling like little porcupines prior to their deaths in front of her regiment.

The Lightning Magic was oddly powerful, however. It was puncturing through the soldiers’ chests with ease.

The commander did not want to lose too many of her men, and ordered her captains to move into defensive positions.

The Wind Warships began moving as a whole. They still possessed enormous strength despite losing several hundred Mages.

The Fleet Shell was not the real armor of a battleship. It was a defensive system made up of many Light Mages.

As soon as the order was given, Advanced Light Mages immediately took command of the Wind Warships. The whole fleet turned into a battle machine with each Mage as a gear.

The gears had varied sizes. The Advanced Mages were big gears while the Intermediate and Basic Mages were smaller gears. They were providing the battle machine with energy!

Wind Magic was its core. Light Magic was its shell!

The Wind Warships were not actual battleships with decks, hulls, and armor, but the whole fleet was made up of the Light and Wind Magic of around two thousand Mages!

The system allowed the Mages to stack their magic very effectively.

It was similar to machinery components. The components were not useful on their own, yet when they were combined into a machine, the power they could unleash was far greater than their individual power output, provided the fuel was sufficient.

Mo Fan’s Lightning Tyrant had made him one of the strongest Lightning Mages in the world. He could defeat a few hundred Mages with ease.

However, the Light Shell the Light Mages had raised for the Wind Warships was surprisingly sturdy. It was comparable to the defense of a Super Mage like Zhao Manyan.

The Brown Army’s formation was not to be underestimated, since they had the strength in numbers!

—

“There are too many of them. They have come prepared,” Mu Bai analyzed.

Zhao Manyan was almost at his limit. Mu Bai had no choice but to use his trump card now.

The Wind Warships were not their only problem. A whole lot more Mages were raining spells at them from the nearby buildings.

Blizzard and fierce winds, scorching flames and burning light, rolling sandstorms and ferocious tides…

Even though the army mainly consisted of Basic and Intermediate Mages, they had no trouble defeating powerful Mages when they kept bombarding their enemies with spells!

“Mo Fan, I can’t hold on for much longer!” Mu Bai exclaimed, his face pale.

The enemy’s numbers were too overwhelming.

The buildings in front of them had several hundred soldiers. The heads that were sticking out of the windows alone were enough to form a few dozen platoons, let alone the men on the roofs!

The whole building had turned into a fortress with countless cannons aimed at them, and the streets on both sides of the plaza were crowded with Mages too!

The number of Mages they could see were several thousand, not to mention those out of their range of vision behind the buildings.

The bridge was behind them, and it was fully crowded with Mages without the slightest gap between them, like they were holding a protest.

The streets had other buildings too. The soldiers of the Brown Army had occupied their balconies, windows, and roofs!

It was obviously a trap Salan and the Chief Extraditor had prepared for Mo Fan and his friends. Otherwise, why would the Brown Rebels go through so much trouble just to welcome three Mages from China?

Zhao Manyan’s magic Equipment started breaking after a few rounds of attacks, and Mu Bai’s defensive moves had only bought them a few extra seconds.

Mo Fan had only used one or two spells to suppress enemy’s fire.

They might have fended off the fleet of Wind Warships, but unfortunately they’d had no time to deal with the rebels on their sides and back.

“Star Dust!”

The Circle of Crystal Teeth did not require Star Patterns and Star Constellations. Mo Fan could activate it with a single thought.

Mo Fan had no choice but to give up his Lightning Magic when Mu Bai’s defense collapsed. He promptly stacked the Shards into a fortress.

The enemy had overwhelming numbers, so every spell they used would provide Mo Fan with a Shard. The abundant Shards immediately filled up any gaps.

The fortress was extremely sturdy. Mo Fan managed to fend off another round of bombardment. But even though the fortress was continuously repaired by the Circle of Crystal Teeth, it would not last forever.

The Circle of Crystal Teeth was merely stealing a portion of the enemy’s energy as they were constructing Star Orbits and Star Patterns. It needed around ten thousand Shards just to withstand a round of bombardment.

The remaining Shards were not enough to withstand the next round of attacks.

“That guy is ridiculously strong!” the female commander noticed.

Most Super Mages would be dead by now. Yet, their enemies were still holding their ground!
