Chapter 44

Although it was more accurate to say 10 tons of mass rather than 10 tons of gravity, the brief duration of less than two seconds caused the "Magic Square" to instantly lose six minutes of its evolution time, leaving it with less than 10 seconds, nearly depleting it.

The "Magic Square" did not display the "Void Magnetic Field" talent of the Gold Dragon Clan, perhaps because the cost would be even greater. In fact, with the SEG core unit of the "Dragon General" tactical armor generating repulsion shields, the significance of the "Void Magnetic Field" was not as great.

In another world, the pinnacle of human technology overlapped to some extent with the talents of the Gold Dragon Clan. After all, both were based on metal application technology, and the existence of interchangeable elements was entirely expected.

Despite the enormous consumption required to activate and maintain the "Magic Square" module, the results were extremely significant.

Struggling to prop himself up from the ground, Centurion Mate of the "Red-Eyed Lion" saw stars, and a sudden surge in his throat caused him to uncontrollably spew a mouthful of purple blood.

If he hadn't reacted quickly and narrowly avoided the sharp edge of the opponent's giant sword, striking the blade's spine with all his might, he would have been mercilessly slain like the other soldiers.

Even so, the immense force transmitted through the blade directly injured his internal organs, and even part of his armor was mysteriously stripped away and disappeared.

The opponent's methods were truly too bizarre, not only causing massive damage but also forcibly stripping away armor, which was even more brutal than breaking through defenses.

Another blazing fireball whistled through the air, but Lin默 swung the Dragon Slayer Sword in a baseball swing, ruthlessly batting the magical attack into a shower of fire.

It was simply too overwhelming.

This scene made the fourth-rank mage West from Portland frown deeply, his body trembling.

Suddenly, the opponent gave him a sinister cold laugh, terrifying him so much that he retreated hastily, stumbling and falling on his buttocks again.

The Portland mage had no doubt that the giant blade could effortlessly cut through his magic shield.

He quickly fished out a pale pink glass bottle of magic potion from his body, unscrewed the cap, endured the incredibly pungent and strange smell, and gulped it down. It felt like a fire immediately ignited in his stomach, the taste in his mouth was nauseating, but the effect of the potion was immediate. The majority of the active fire element energy, which had been largely depleted, surged back into his body, not only restoring him to a large extent but also stabilizing and recovering his mental energy in the fiery sensation.

Feeling his strength restored, the Portland mage decisively cast a magic shield on himself and, without hesitation, made a strategic retreat (or escape). For a noble mage to engage in combat with such a terrifying warrior was not only a loss of dignity but also extremely foolish.

"Huey, let's leave this place!"

The Tese Empire's air knight Rois shamelessly rode his ninth-rank giant bird, the Thunder Sparrow, flapping its wings to generate a powerful airflow, quickly ascending into the sky, leaving this dangerous and contentious place.

The dragon rider's thrown dragon rider spear had not injured the Thunder Sparrow's tendons. After careful wound treatment and bandaging, it did not affect normal flight.

Although the fleeing Tese air knight was out of reach, the dragon rider did not focus his attention on the injured Portland centurion and fourth-rank mage. Even if he could resolve these two powerful enemies at the moment, he would inevitably pay a significant price.

It was better to continue preying on the weak, or to use the advantage of strength to continue attacking the enemy's weak points. As long as his stamina and battle qi did not run out, with the "Magic Square" Dragon Slayer Sword in hand, Morin, the dragon rider of the Sylan Empire's Royal Dragon Rider Corps, was an increasingly formidable existence.

"Damn it!"

Faced with the knight with negative integrity, Centurion Mate of the "Red-Eyed Lion" was furious but helpless. He had been caught off guard and suffered a great loss, and he might not be so lucky next time. He did not want to be swatted like a cow fly again.

Chasing those poor little soldiers was not a very satisfying task, but dragon riders in any world had never shied away from taking over the army's business.

Although it had little tactical significance, it had special strategic value.

Such large-scale slaughter of low-ranking soldiers would certainly shake the morale of the Portland Republic's vanguard forces, and the upcoming series of military actions would be significantly affected or delayed.

This was exactly what Lin默 and the Gemini sisters needed.

The temporary rest camp of the Portland "Red-Eyed Lion" vanguard unit was unexpectedly attacked by a demon, with blood and flesh flying and screams echoing.

The Portland people never expected that before they could even capture the nearby small fort, a powerful Sylan knight would counterattack, placing his sword at their throats.

Those who kill will be killed, this is the fate of invaders.

The "Magic Square" Dragon Slayer Sword, after devouring a large amount of enemy weapons and equipment, saw its maintenance time increase. By the time Lin默 had cut through the Portland "Red-Eyed Lion" vanguard unit, the maintenance time had risen to eleven minutes.

With a casual gesture, the "Magic Square" module left by the gold dragon for the dragon rider shrank back into a bracelet form. Lin默 had no intention of turning back for another charge. Without hesitation, he plunged into the Green Mist Forest, disappearing into the dense woods. For a regular army to hunt down a ninth-rank powerhouse in the forest was no easy task.

Don't underestimate these low-ranking soldiers. Once they regained their senses and formed a battle formation, their sheer numbers could overwhelm a ninth-rank powerhouse. If high-ranking powerhouses could solve all disputes, why would countries maintain armies? In reality, the ultimate strategic victory still depended on the strength of each soldier.

"Report, the evacuation of Pine Town is complete. We will arrive at Assembly Point 1 in 3 hours."

Thanks to the pristine and unpolluted electrical environment of this world, the military special radio communication devices carried by the Gemini sisters and the "Dragon General" on Lin默's body could almost reach the theoretical maximum communication range, with no interference.

The people left in Pine Town to distract the Portland army were prepared to evacuate at any time. Lin默's latest orders, conveyed through the Gemini sisters, prompted everyone to immediately gather, carrying what they could, and unhesitatingly abandon the nearly empty town to the Portland people.

While Lin默 was entangled with the Portland vanguard "Red-Eyed Lion" vanguard unit, the Portland camp to the east of the town lost its commander again, and even the noble mage suddenly left, causing the offensive to fizzle out. This gave the Gemini sisters and the Pine Town defenders the best opportunity to evacuate.

Assembly Point 1 was already pre-set as a temporary camp for reuniting with scattered personnel in case of an emergency.

The "Dragon General" helmet's display screen showed an electronic map, a product of the combination of light mirror technology and science. Through a high-altitude bird's-eye view and digital photos, with manual supplementation and drawing, a simple bird's-eye map was created.

Due to the influence of clouds and the planet's curvature, this application method had a reconnaissance radius limit and could not achieve the same effect as space satellite reconnaissance.

The electronic map marked the direction of the Gemini sisters, who were heading to Assembly Point 1. This was a low-precision positioning result achieved in an environment without other artificial electromagnetic signals.

Without satellites and signal base stations, it was impossible to accurately determine coordinates. In fact, the world they were in, more accurately, the planet, had never been divided into meridians, and latitude and longitude coordinates were non-existent.

A group pushed aside the dense vegetation blocking their path, moving through the edge of the Green Mist Forest.

"Charlie, urge everyone to speed up. The Portland people could catch up at any time."

With Lin默 absent, Li Muxin naturally took on the role of commander for the final evacuation team from Pine Town.

"May I ask, where is Lord Morin now?"

The newly appointed Pine Town guard captain, nicknamed "Three-Eyes," Charlie, asked the Gemini sisters with a somewhat reverent tone.

To him, these two sisters seemed to be more than just rangers. Those who had just participated in the town's defense battle said they were also very powerful mages.
