Chapter 406: 424 Transform! Black Iron Magic Puppet_1
Grand Mage Blackhand looked at the group of ferocious undead dragons ahead. Even if he took them on, it would only lead to a more horrific death.
For Stania’s current status, there was no reason to fly into the desolate Dragon Bone Wasteland and stand against these apocalyptic-level opponents alone.
Or have Chris and Patton been lost in Stania’s prestige for so many years?
If it were a normal enemy, Grand Mage Blackhand would have taken his wand and charged forward to teach them a lesson.
But now his opponents were this group of undead dragons. Just a rough look, Blackhand found quite a few of them had already reached the Legendary level.
Even though some undead dragons were still far away from becoming Legends, they must have had the potential to become ones.
After all, these undead dragons mostly came from the dragon tombs in the Dragon Bone Wasteland.
Dragons who could return to the dragon tombs before death usually lived for an impressive period.
For dragons, the older they were, the more powerful they became.
It’s important to note that dragons had many valuable treasures on them. If they hadn’t been strong enough when they were alive, they would have been dismantled and utilized by greedy humans or other races.
Seeing the next attack from the undead dragons about to come, Blackhand hurriedly instructed the Magic Guard Trainee beside him: “How many people from Blackhand Spire have joined the Magic Guards? Gather everyone who isn’t dead or injured! Bring everything you can carry before joining your seniors in the Old City District to wait for my arrival!”
“Master…”
The Magic Guard Trainee seemed to grasp what Blackhand was planning to do.
“What are you waiting for?”
Seeing his student still hesitating, Blackhand angrily put his foot on his buttocks and yelled, “Get moving! While I can still hold on, you’d better be quick. When the time comes, I won’t be able to worry about your life or death!”
Having reached this point, the Magic Guard Trainee didn’t dare hesitate any longer. He immediately dashed away without looking back.
Meanwhile, the combined attack of Frostfire and other undead dragons’ second full-tilt attack was drawing close.
Grand Mage Blackhand kept a grim face as he flew to the top of Blackhand Spire, rhythmically striking the tiles with his wand.
“Clang… clang…clang…”
When the dragons’ breaths were heading straight for him, Blackhand calmly and quickly chanted spells.
Soon, a pitch-black space appeared above the inevitable path of the dragon’s breath. It connected to an unknown area, and some breaths were directly absorbed into it when they came in contact.
Once the breaths had crossed this space, the scale of the undead dragons’ breath attack had diminished by one third.
But it was still deadly enough!
However, Blackhand had more tricks up his sleeve.
Blackhand loudly chanted spells, and at that moment, the Black Iron Spire below him seemed to come alive, slowly twisting.
“Crack… rumble…”
A thick mana barrier stood in front of Blackhand Spire, blocking some of the breath attack. The remaining unblocked breaths hit the Blackhand Spire directly.
However, when the smoke from the explosion cleared, Blackhand Spire remained virtually undamaged. Blackhand, standing atop the tower, was sweating profusely and panting heavily.
It was clear that surviving that attack was no easy feat for him.
Compared to his struggles, the use of breath attacks by the undead dragons seemed much more effortless.
Since one or two rounds of breath attacks don’t bring you down, let’s try a third and fourth round!
Frostfire stared angrily at Blackhand. What puzzled him was that, despite facing such a critical situation, a faint smile appeared on Blackhand’s face.
“Has this little insect gone mad?”
Just as Frostfire was thinking about it, he was surprised to see that Blackhand Spire’s appearance seemed to have changed.
Upon closer inspection, it no longer resembled a Mage’s Spire, but had transformed into a massive black iron Magic Puppet.
“Hum…”
In astonishment, Frostfire heard a sharp buzz coming from the enormous black iron Magic Puppet.
Soon after, a faint glow appeared on the Black Iron Magic Puppet. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the glow originated from a complex array of inscriptions on its body.
“The three Floating Cities indeed have hidden talents…”
Frostfire had also lived through countless years and naturally knew about the three Floating Cities. To master such magical techniques, even in the entire continent, this peculiar-looking bald black-faced mage would be an influential figure.
“However, if this Magic Puppet is your only source of reassurance, you’re underestimating us!”
Frostfire sneered, shaking his neck with a continuous cracking sound.
It had to be said that the massive black iron Magic Puppet had aroused his will to fight. Ever since he had arrived in Stania, he had been crushing everything in his path.
That had become quite boring over time.
Just when Frostfire was about to engage in close combat to change the mood, he was surprised to find that the movements of the black iron Magic Puppet opposite him had become somewhat strange.
The enormous black iron Magic Puppet swayed its body in coordination with Blackhand, manipulating the magic elements in the air to summon multiple lightning strikes into the sky.
Though each lightning strike looked enormous and menacing, their landing spots were rather odd, striking directly between the black iron Magic Puppet and several undead dragons.
“Crack! Boom…”
After a series of thundering explosions, besides blowing some deep pits with shattered bricks and debris everywhere, nothing else seemed to have happened.
“Did it miss?”
Just as Frostfire was thinking about this, the black iron Magic Puppet suddenly turned and quickly fled away without looking back.
Now that almost all Blackhand’s students had fled, there was no need for him to stay here and resist so many undead dragons.
It was quite a surprise that the massive black iron Magic Puppet could move so quickly.
However, being constrained by its enormous size, the movement of the Magic Puppet was quite conspicuous.
Frostfire didn’t think that it would easily escape his sight.
Without hesitation, he immediately chased after the escaping Blackhand and the massive black iron Magic Puppet.
