my age of magic

Chapter 518 16. Forced Landing
The shrill sound of birdsong resounded in the sky and reached the ears of everyone on the deck. It was like a needle was pierced into the ear in an instant, and everyone on the deck immediately covered their ears with their hands, with painful expressions on their faces. The look, the weak-willed person even threw the weapon, held his head in his hands, and squatted on the ground in pain.

"Ah!" Captain Mackintosh beside him held his head and groaned in pain.

At this moment, I also felt as if someone had pierced my eardrum. The pain penetrated deep into my spiritual world. The sharper the hearing, the clearer the pain.

And my hearing is not bad, so it brings me more pain than others.

At this time, I did not show the painful expression that I should have. It is because my pain tolerance is much higher than others. Childhood, so now it seems that this kind of pain that only pierces the eardrum does not make me feel any stronger. On the contrary, this pain is only experienced for a short moment.

My self-healing ability allowed my body to recover to its best state in an instant, so instead of squatting on the ground in pain, I stood in the captain's cabin and stared at the wind snakes 300 meters away. Like me, there are only a few soldiers left on the deck. I didn't expect there to be strong men on the airship who are strong enough to withstand the sonic attack. Obviously, these soldiers have also noticed each other, and everyone has a tacit understanding He held the weapon tightly in his hand.

Unexpectedly, the first wave of Wind Snake's attack turned out to be a sonic magic attack, and before it rushed up, the people on board suffered a big loss.

The flying speed of those wind snakes was originally instantaneous, plus the speed of the giant crossbow arrows that flew out was super fast, the wind snake flying at the front had no time to dodge the giant crossbow arrows, and hit it head-on.

There was a 'bang' sound in the air, and a huge crossbow arrow made of fine iron shot directly from the wind snake's head. A thin sword was put into the scabbard, filling the wind snake's leather bag to the brim, the arrow tip protruded from the tail of the wind snake, and the sharp sword tip was exposed outside, the whole wind snake didn't have time to make any sound, directly Fall from the sky.

The other two arrows were not so well aimed, they passed directly through the group of wind snakes respectively, and disappeared into the air without a trace in an instant, the sharp arrows frightened the wind snakes to scream.

The bullet shot out by my shotgun hit the eye of a wind snake almost at the same time, the white crystal blindfold of that wind snake shattered, and the whole bullet of the shotgun exploded into a handful of flames. In the whining sound of the wind snake, it was deeply embedded in the eye socket of the wind snake, and the pain caused the wind snake to roll violently in the air, and fell from a high altitude, but only a few seconds later, the snake went blind. The one-eyed wind snake stubbornly adjusted its body and flew up from below.

Twenty-odd wind snakes rushed over like twenty-odd sharp arrows. Under the attack of the sound wave, none of the crew members could stand up quickly and organize an effective counterattack. Only me and a few soldiers You can also stand on the deck.

The one-eyed wind snake with one eye injured fluttered its wings and rushed towards me desperately angrily. I held up the shotgun steadily and aimed at its other eye...

When we launched the first round of attack, the wind snakes were about 300 meters away from our airship. When I was about to fire the second shot, those wind snakes had already rushed forward. They whizzed over the airship with a huge cyclone. The huge wind brought by the wind snakes blew the people on the deck upside down, and there were screams from the deck below. The hurricane directly blew away, and the body fell to the outside of the airship, turning into a black spot in an instant.

Captain Mackintosh was holding the rudder of the airship tightly with both hands. At this time, he had recovered a little bit. He opened his eyes and saw that I was holding a gun and aiming at the wind snake that fell behind against the hurricane. A wind snake had already rushed to the bow, but everything rushed towards the captain's cabin. Captain McIntosh's expression changed in fright. At this critical moment, he shouted loudly: "Be careful!"

And stretched out his hand to pull me away, to avoid the pounce of this one-eyed wind snake.

'boom'

The projectile of the second shot shot out at the same time his hand touched my arm, and the dark red ballistic directly pierced the other eye of the wind snake, and a ball of scarlet blood burst out from that crystal eye of the wind snake , spilled on the deck.

A pair of its eyes were all abolished by the shotgun, and the three-meter-long snake-shaped body lost its sense of balance in the air, and rolled in a ball towards the captain's cabin here.

Captain Mackintosh dragged me down to the ground, the wind snake covered with hard silver armor scales crashed straight through the guardrail of the captain's cabin, rolled in the air, slid past my nose, and hung on the stern of the ship. On the ramming corner, a sea bowl-thick oak vertical beam of the captain's cabin was directly broken. Its hard scales were not damaged at all. huge sharp ram,

It lost its eyesight, its body was entwined tightly on the ram, it opened its mouth wide, and sprayed out a mouthful of blue venom towards the ram. The venom was very corrosive, and it immediately corroded the copper ram. There must be puffs of blue smoke coming out.

I looked at the terrible damage of the wind snake in horror. If Captain McIntosh hadn't pulled me down to the ground, the one who was tightly entangled by the wind snake and sprayed a mouthful of venom at this time would definitely not be the copper snake. Instead, I was lying on the floor of the captain's cabin.

"Does every magician have such terrifying good marksmanship?" Mackintosh asked me panting. At this moment after escaping from life and death, he seemed to release all the strength of his body.

Captain Mackintosh lay on the floor beside me, looking at me with a wry smile and undisguised admiration in his eyes.

"My childhood was spent in the wilds of the Pai Plateau of the Orcs, and that's where I learned my marksmanship!" I explained to Captain Mackintosh.

"Your childhood? It's hard to imagine, but it's really amazing!" McIntosh struggled to prop himself up and sat up from the floor.

I turned my head and looked at the messy scene on the deck.

At this time, the twenty or so wind snakes roared past the airship, and more than a dozen sharp wind blades shot out from their mouths, rolling and chopping in the air like shining silver scimitars. On the deck of the airship, some wind blades slashed on the floor, cutting the floor into grooves five centimeters deep and several meters long.Some wind blades slashed on the shields of the warriors, and there were clear marks on the extremely strong iron and wood shields. The warriors behind the iron shields were knocked half kneeling on the ground by the huge force.There were still some wind blades slashing on the defenseless warriors. Where the wind blades passed, their bodies in light leather armor were mercilessly cut open by the wind blades with deep and bone-deep wounds, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Several powerful fighters worked together to keep a wind snake behind. When they swung their weapons, they emitted slices of blade light, which seemed to be close to the strength of a rank-[-] fighter. The Warcraft Wind Snake is really more than enough, and Luka's figure is also among these warriors, and I was surprised to find that the leather craftsman was holding a sharp spear at this time. The snake's fleshy wings were pierced.

Losing the speed bonus brought by their fleshy wings, the wind snake could not maintain its flying posture in the air, and fell to the deck. Its body kept blowing the cyclone, and was cut by the knight holding the crusader-style long sword. Lost his head.

The biggest threat of these wind snakes is that they come and go like the wind, they can fly freely in the air, and they have the magic skills 'wind blade', 'corrosion' and 'secondary sound wave'.

They have great destructive power to the airship. With just one wave of attack, they tore the huge sail on the main mast of the airship to pieces with their strong bodies, and the speed of the airship became even slower now.

At this time, the soldiers on the deck had gradually recovered from the pain caused by the sound waves. The surviving crew members did not panic at all. They quickly adjusted the angle of the bed crossbow. Bowstring, ready for a second attack.And the archers who formed the phalanx shot a dense rain of arrows at the wind snakes who were about to fly away in a blink of an eye. Unfortunately, these arrow rains could not cause damage to the wind snakes with hard scales.

I rolled from the ground, half squatted and half kneeled on the ground, held the shotgun in both hands, and continued to shoot at a wind snake that fell behind. Unfortunately, due to the angle, I couldn't reach the eyes of the tower, even with the attached ' The projectile with the effect of the "flame tongue weapon" could not penetrate the scales of the wind snake. When the projectile hit the wind snake's body, it could only lift up a small scale on its body, and could not bring it any real damage.

Seeing the group of wind snakes fly away, they drew a large circle above the sea of ​​clouds and swooped down again.

In the crowd, someone was already shouting loudly: "Shield fighters pay attention to preparations, they are rushing over, block the wind blade!"

It was a strong warrior who spoke, and it was he who stopped a fast-flying wind snake.

At this time, he said again: "Archers prepare, dodge the wind blades before releasing arrows, their weak point is the head!"

There is a leader, who everyone is very convinced by, and the phalanx on the deck is organized again.

……

At the cabin door.

Several young men ran out from the crowd, and I saw a familiar profile of one of them, Captain McIntosh's second mate, Kom. He and several crew members lifted several long and narrow metal boxes from the cabin. Lifting them out, almost exhausting all the strength of breastfeeding, dragged them to the side of the bed crossbow, opened the metal box, and took out cylinders that were as thick as thighs. The length of these dark cylinders was only One meter, I can't see what it is.

Kom and another first officer who commanded the crew to fight exchanged glances, and the two carefully loaded the black cylinder on the bed crossbow.

They actually abandoned the giant crossbow bolts and used this black cylinder. I am very curious about what is inside!
……

When the wind snakes appeared in our field of vision this time, the wind snake whose tail scales were knocked off by me with a gun, locked on me first and rushed towards me.

It flew to a place 300 meters away from me, and I shot again. Unfortunately, the goddess of luck failed to favor me this time. This shot only made a bullet hole in its flesh wing, and the wind snake was not affected in any way. Instead, after getting closer to me, he sent a wind blade at me.

I quickly turned on the 'Ice Shield' to resist. After the wind blade cut through the three ice shields, it finally turned into a wind element in front of me and floated in the air. Captain McIntosh at the side let out a soft breath.

But just when I wanted to aim at the wind snake again, the wind snake opened its mouth again and sprayed out a mouthful of green venom at me...

Looking at the cloud of venom raining down in the sky, I was also dumbfounded.

Even though I have an ice shield, I can't stop all the venom!The venom will spread to some soldiers on the deck near the captain's cabin. At this time, it is too late to condense the ice wall.

"Jijia, Frost Archery!" Morayal's voice came from behind me, and her fragrant breath had already drifted into my nose.

Without hesitation, I condensed a half-meter-long Frostbolt within half a second. Obviously, there is no 'magic catalysis' blessing state, I can only condense the first half of the Frostbolt, but according to Heidi, for For a first-level magician, it is very rare for a magician to be able to release ice arrows.

At this time, I vaguely heard the voice of Moraya reciting the spell behind me. The rich tree essence and wood element were condensed around her. It spread suddenly in the magic circle, and a pentagonal maple leaf with a diameter of about three meters appeared on top of my head, blocking the venom every drop.

And my ice arrow hit the wind snake with a white ray of light, and the body of the wind snake exploded with ice mist. Its body was covered with a layer of white ice, but the fleshy wings on its body were still flapping with difficulty. Floating in the air, failed to fall down.

An emerald green flying spear flew out from behind me, turning into a green light and wrapping around the wind snake. Countless thorns and vines entangled the wind snake in the air, and finally the wind snake couldn't stay in the air. He fell awkwardly on the deck in front of the captain's cabin, struggling continuously.

With one hand propped on the fence of the captain's cabin, I jumped onto the deck, swung the Shura axe and slashed a black gust of wind, chopping off the bowl-sized triangular head of the Wind Snake trapped in the vines.

A crew member next to me was about to rush over with a machete, but when he saw me slashing the wind snake with an axe, he was dumbfounded on the spot.

……

The rest of the wind snakes launched a second round of attacks on the deck of the airship. This time everyone has some combat experience, and there is no sonic attack. Under the defense of more than a dozen shield fighters, the wind blade skills of the wind snake It didn't cause too many casualties, and the archers took the opportunity to shoot a rain of arrows. Although it didn't cause any damage, it slowed down the dive speed of these wind snakes.

Of course, it still failed to stop a few wind snakes from completely tearing up the other sail, and the speed of the airship slowed down again...

The bed crossbow on the side of the ship on the left side of the deck fired again, and the crew shot three black cylinders, and the three cylinders shot at the wind snakes who were about to fly past the airship deck, just before they approached the group of wind snakes, The three black cylinders exploded in unison.

Three huge black nets covered the wind snakes in the air in a hellfire. Obviously, these wind snakes are very familiar with the flames coming towards their faces. The three black nets scared the wind snakes to let out several mournful wailings , all turned sharply in the air and fled in all directions.

It's a pity that the shooter of the bed crossbow is probably not familiar with how to use these black nets. One huge black net lost its aim and somehow hung on the crossbar of the main mast. The black hell flames on the huge net suddenly ignited the mast. With the tattered sails, a raging fire ignited on the mainmast in an instant.

The other two huge nets burning with black hellfire each caught three or five wind snakes. The black nets wrapped the wind snakes, burning billowing black flames, and fell to the deck. He stopped struggling but the more he struggled, the tighter the black net became.

At this time, Captain Mackintosh, who was standing beside me, held on to the railing with both hands, and shouted to the crew on the deck: "Cut off the mainmast quickly, and prepare to make an emergency landing!"
