<h4>Chapter 814: Powerful Reinforcement (Part 2)</h4>


    Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio


    Thebat vessels of Alchemy City had to be of formidable strength in order to stop Cloudflow fleets from heading north. If not for encountering someone of grade-10, Sregl Indbat vessels were more than capable of traveling the seas north of Alchemy City.


    Jason was seated in the mainbat vessel of Sregl Ind. Since Rance had the Godly Items refined from the Fire Element Elf, Sregl Ind should have been safe from any trouble even if they had given their most powerfulbat vessel to Jason.


    The body of thebat vessel was made from the bones of magic beasts, but it was different from the Dragon skeletonbat vessel in that the bones were the same as ordinarybat vessels made from iron and steel. Once the bones had been refined, they were mixed together. On the other hand, the Dragon skeletonbat vessel mainly used the bones of ancient giant dragons to be made into the body of the vessels. They were sturdier and possessed attacking abilities. It was like a magic tower floating on the sea.


    The mainbat vessel of Sregl Ind looked like a sharp metal triangle, exuding ck light. There was nothing protruding on top of thebat vessel. In the front there was a row of nted crystal windows, where the captain of the vessel would usually be.


    The rear of thebat vessel was where the weapons of magicbat vessels usually were. There were rectangr magic stone artilleries that were joined together with metallic stands to form an even bigger square.


    In other words, the four magic stone artilleries that had been joined together would be able to shoot at the same target simultaneously.


    Jason’s boat was too sturdy and was even more powerful than skeletal warships. Not only did skeletal warships utilize a lot of resources, their structures were entirely logical, hence they were easily defeated by Cloudflow. On the other hand, thebat vessel from Sregl Ind was able to take more damage. There was also space on the vessel that was specially for mages to battle. Just like magic towers, the space could enhance mages’ uracy, attacking distance, and reduce the usage of magic chords.


    What made the Sreeger Indbat vessels even more powerful was that there were sound transmission magic arrays on each vessel. As long as they stayed within a certain distance from each other, they would not need coordinates in order to join forces in battle.


    When the winged skeletonmanded battles, he had to rely on his control over the spirits of the dead. Such a method of rying information was unique only to him. No one else would be able tomand his Spirit Fleet. This was why he managed to sink quite a few Cloudflow transport carriers when he personally fought in battle, but when he operated a singlebat vessel on his own, he was defeated easily.


    Besides, all Alchemy Citybat vessels could travel at a speed of more than one-hundred miles an hour.


    There were a total of fourteen ships, fourrge and ten medium-sized. The route that Jason had chosen was a straight one and they would travel twenty-five-hundred miles each day.


    Jason was already rushing as quickly as he could, but by the time he reached Metatrin City, Saleen had already left.


    When thebat vessels approached, it was as if Metatrin City was facing a formidable enemy. There were a number of divingbat vessels underwater near the port of Metatrin City. The soldiers on thebat vessels have been warned not to attack unless the enemy had entered the port. The winged skeleton had no choice but to set that order because he knew that the weapons on the divingbat vessels were not powerful enough to handle powerfulbat vessels on the water surface yet.


    Truman, who was training on White Rock Mountain, had already aimed the magic cannon at the port. He was sweating nervously, but soon after, he saw a small lifeboat approaching the port.


    It was a swordmaster from Sregl Ind on the lifeboat.


    There were plenty of merchant ships in the port. These ships were still unaware of the arrival of thebat vessels and were still busy being filled up with goods. The security forces of port quickly deployed someone to receive the person on the lifeboat. They did not dare to attack hastily because most of the vessels withbat abilities had already been taken away by Saleen.


    That time around, Saleen was only targeting low-level and middle-level magic beasts in his hunt at Oceanic Ice Block.


    When Nichs heard about what was happening, he immediately rushed to the port. After Saleen had left, he became the most powerful person in the city. He was responsible if anything happened at the port. By then, he had already fallen in love with the city and the way of life.


    This was much more interesting than trying to climb up the hierarchy of the Holy See.


    In Metatrin Kingdom, one’s reward corrted to their hard work, but for the Holy See, every honor belonged to God.


    By the time Nichs reached the port, he saw that thebat vessels had already entered and were docked beside the pier that was set aside for military use. There were two types of piers in Metatrin, even the merchant pier could be used to dockbat vessels though. There were empty slots throughout the year to facilitate easy entry forbat vessels.


    Nichs stood at the rear of the pier along with the soldiers of the seventh battalion and a few mages. He saw that the mages of the temple had already rushed to the pier excitedly and had cast spells at thebat vessels.


    The spells they cast were those used for transmitting messages, such as Magic me.


    Nichs’ heart was shaken a little. Saleen had not mentioned anything to him about Sregl Ind, but he vaguely knew that Saleen was expecting the arrival of arge group of mages and had already preparedrge areas ofnd to build magic towers for those mages.


    Nichs did not rush to the front, choosing to observe from afar instead. He saw the mages cheering like a group of farmers, weing a person disembarking from the strange-lookingbat vessel.


    He was a mage dressed in a long ck robe, with a gentle expression on his face. He looked younger than forty years old. He had probably advanced into a sorcerer before thirty years old, so his looks would never change from then on.


    This ck-robed mage nced around before saying, “Why isn’t Saleen here?”


    Nichs felt a prick in his ear. He was secretly listening in from afar, but did not expect to be found out by the ck-robed mage. When thetter spoke, he even cast a small spell at Nichs.


    Nichs was furious, but he quickly contained his anger. The man was calling for Saleen directly and hade all the way to Metatrin City. It was clear that he knew who Saleen was.


    Even if the background of how Saleen became a king was unclear, he was now also the husband of Lex, which was a known fact. Despite that the mage seemed disrespectful in the way he called for Saleen...


    “He must be Saleen’s elder! Yes, this must be Saleen’s teacher.” Nichs thought.


    Another person might not have been able to infer so much, but Nichs had survived in the Holy See for so many years, so he was very familiar with unspoken etiquettes and rules of the world. If that man was Saleen’s teacher, then there was nothing for him to be upset about. Even though he only had two rows of magic symbols on his magic robe, which meant that he was only a grade-8 sorcerer.


    Nichs quickly rushed over once he came to that conclusion.


    “My respects to Lord Mage.” Nichs greeted politely.


    Jason took one look at Nichs and was surprised. The news that had traveled to Alchemy City did not include Saleen defeating the armies of the Holy See, so Jason was unaware that Saleen had taken in a grade-9 holy master.


    “You are?”


    “Lord Mage, I am a follower of His Highness, Saleen. My name is Nichs, a fallen holy master,” Nichs answered honestly.


    “It is impressive of Saleen to be able to get someone of grade-9 to join him.” Jason nodded.


    “Lord Mage, I was defeated by His Highness, Saleen. I chose to follow him willingly.”


    Jason smiled gently and was not bothered by what Nichs said. Most Sregl Ind mages had been living in an enclosed environment, so they would not understand the cunning ways of the world. Jason was extremely smart and could urately judge a person’s intention. That was a talent as much as it was an ability demonstrated only by a certain level of training in magic.


    “I am Saleen’s teacher. Since you are his follower, bring us to Saleen’s pce. He is a king after all.”


    Nichs nodded and turned around to dismiss the soldiers of the seventh battalion. When he turned back, he saw many sorcerers of different levels disembarking from thebat vessels. That was when his heart was truly shaken.


    Jason had brought along thirty-six sorcerers in total. Although most of them were grade-7 sorcerers there were so many of them even grade-9 sorcerers would have to think twice before attacking.


    There were also swordmasters, grand swordmasters, and even archers that were beyond grade-7.


    No wonder Saleen had been waiting and dying. Nichs did not expect Saleen to have such powerful reinforcements!


    Nichs led Jason andpany back to the temple. No one dared to crowd around along the way. When so many mages appeared together in one ce, everyone would be in a hurry to hide. In fact, there were a total of thirty-seven sorcerers including Jason, and one-hundred and twenty-eight grand mages. Such a concentration of powers could easily turn the entire city into a graveyard.


    No one was concerned about the white-robed mages behind the grand mages. The news of so many mages suddenly appearing in Metatrin City would quickly spread around the entire Maind without the need for spies.


    Jason smiled when he saw the temple. Saleen was quite extravagant, but it was good because the exterior of the temple looked impressive and tall and looked simr to a magic tower. If a magic tower had been built in that way, the cost of resources required would have been terribly high. He wondered if the resources that he had given Saleen might have been used on the temple.


    With a nce, Jason could tell that the defense of the temple far surpassed most magic towers. He was afraid that it was out of fear of death that Saleen had wasted so many resources in order to build something so massive.


    The mages that hade from Sregl Ind earlier had been staying in the temple all that while and had alsoe forward to wee Jason. There were so many of them that time around. If Saleen had not built something like that, they would not have been able to stay there together.


    When Nichs led Jason through the temple, the soldiers on duty in the temple came forward to conduct a security check. They were only dismissed after Nichs whispered a few words to them.


    When Jason saw that Nichs did not berate the soldiers that had onlye forward to carry out their duty, he was pleased. This follower of Saleen’s was pretty good.


    “I want to use a magic array to talk to Lex.” Jason walked up to the third story. Beyond that was upied by Saleen’s bodyguards. Sound transmission magic arrays and teleportation portals were all there.


    Once they were connected to Daliang City, Jason spoke to the sound transmission magic array, “Is this Lex?”


    There was silence over at Daliang City as someone quickly broughtLex to the sound transmission magic array. She did not know what was going on, except that someone had called for her. Lex spoke to the sound transmission magic array patiently, “I am Lex. May I know who this is?”
