From heaven?

The bishops present also woke up after being stunned for a short time.

Those wizards' airships did not take off, obviously because they were afraid of the power of the Griffin Knights, which meant that they could imitate their opponents and use the Griffin Knights' speed and height advantages to launch attacks from the air!

"Devi, you will lead the team this time!" Edwell continued to ask.

"I understand, Sir Edwell, I will never come back until I complete my mission!" Devi put his right hand on his chest and swore categorically. Then he led a group of gryphon knights, wearing special cloths. The wrapped kerosene rose into the sky.

"I will also go to meet these devil's believers and try their abilities!" Arno couldn't help but asked Edwell to fight, and also took a piece of kerosene to replace one of the griffins. Knights on a mission.

Hundreds of gryphon knights rose into the sky, their golden hair shining brightly in the sunlight, like pieces of golden clouds.

"Pay attention, those gryphons are in the air!" Lin En warned with a slightly louder tone on top of the tower.

In fact, there is no need to remind, such a big movement cannot be concealed at all. Raphael and others who were thinking about why the liquid always appeared round in mid-air were also forced to interrupt their thinking and got ready.

When these elite troops start taking action, it means that the Holy See is serious about taking action!

In just one minute, the gryphon knights had already rushed to the sky above the royal capital, maintaining an altitude of about a thousand meters, constantly circling, and falling down and swooping for a distance from time to time, passing about three to four hundred meters above their heads. It can be said to be full of provocation, and it also successfully interfered with the performance of the Musketeers. Go to www,

Because no one knows when these gryphon knights hanging in the sky will launch an attack.

"Pyroblast!" Several wizards who couldn't stand the provocation cast spells together after the gryphon knights dived again.

Several fireballs soared into the sky and flew towards several gryphon knights high in the sky. They used the arcane mathematical formula to calculate the enemy's flight position in advance, which was a 100% certainty.

However, their plan failed. The griffon just flapped its wings fiercely and turned suddenly in mid-air, easily avoiding the fire and explosion. Then, instead of making any attempt to escape from the air, it lowered its altitude again. It flew through the air overhead, making the wizards so angry that they all cast spells to fight back.

[Magic - Barrage], [Ice Storm], [Multiple - Pyroblast]...

Dozens of magics flew into the sky at once, but they wanted to rely on their numerical advantage to forcibly knock down these flexible griffins.

It's a pity that Devi, who had expected it, the moment he felt the strong magic wave, commanded everyone to fly high into the sky again, and all the magic failed again...

Raphael quickly stopped him. "Stop it all, don't waste your magic power and fall into the enemy's trick!"

"Damn it, if they could use that magic, how dare these gryphon knights be so arrogant!" Nancy muttered to herself angrily. She and Glenn both learned Lynn and Anthony's improved laser magic, but Lynn Don't let them use it easily, just say that the time has not come yet...

"Be patient, they don't have the guts to come over. If they get too close, they will be beaten down by us. Just treat them as if they don't exist!" Raphael shook his head and said.

The wizards on the tower were very unhappy but could do nothing. Their magic could not span such a long distance and cause enough damage to the high-speed moving griffins.

The opponent is too flexible and cannot hit at all!

Devi led the griffin knights and frequently provoked the wizards on the city wall in the air. After roughly assessing the safety range, most of the griffins dispersed.

Arno did not leave, but fought with a small number of remaining griffin knights. He aimed at the artillery placed on the city wall, commanded the gryphons under him to dive at an altitude of about 500 meters, and then fiercely He threw the burning oil cloth in his hand towards his target.

"Wait, what is that?" Glenn, who had sharp eyes, kept staring at the sky and immediately noticed something was wrong.

"Fire, it's fire!" a wizard shouted loudly.

"Is it some kind of magic?" Dennis frowned as he looked at the fireballs falling from the sky.

"I don't know, but it must be related to those gryphon knights..." Sanchez shook his head, his expression extremely solemn, because the same scene appeared in every corner of the capital, as if there was rain of fire in the sky...

"Magic barrier!"

On the city tower, hundreds of official wizards cast spells together, and a circular magic barrier immediately enveloped their heads. The cloth wrapped in oil quickly disintegrated under the erosion of the flames, and hit the barrier, making a series of explosive roars.

Part of the unburned black liquid stuck to the magic barrier above his head.

At the same time, a pungent smell also reached everyone's noses.

Toxic gas?

Wizards who have studied poisonous gas magic noticed it when this substance invaded the barrier, and immediately closed their breaths vigilantly.

Lin En quickly recognized these dark liquids that had not yet been fully burned, with an expression of shock and surprise.

"Wait...this can't be...oil?!"

"Oil? What is that?" Dennis and others were confused, and it was another word they had never heard of.

"A very critical liquid fuel." Linn answered.

What is oil? It is the blood of industry, the source of power, and one of the most important cornerstones of modernization. In addition to being used as fuel, it can also be made into plastics, asphalt, synthetic rubber, etc.

Although magic-powered internal combustion engines are currently running in the Wizarding Land, which converts hydrogen into magic and causes gas explosions to provide power. The efficiency is much higher than liquid fuel, but the cost is a big problem.

For example, a crystalline magic stone with a standard diameter, worth three magic gold coins, can only provide flight fuel for an airship for five days.

If it weren't for the war, the parliament would support it regardless of the cost, and even use the magic stone reserves accumulated in the past, so that it would dare to continue to supply hundreds of airships.

Once the process of magic is extended to the entire Kingdom of Hadratah, magic stones will definitely not be the mainstream.

Oil is a good substitute. He had asked the kingdom's spies to pay attention to it before. However, oil exploration is not an easy task, and no news has been reported yet.

Lin En did not expect that traces of oil would be found during this war, and that it would be used directly as kerosene. This was simply a waste of natural resources!
