Badge in Azure Chapter 1397 The Elemental Hand’s Brutality Part 2

Among the surviving troops, the captain knew of Prince Saleen. He even knew that Saleen was a powerful mage, like the current empress of the empire.

What the feared was Saleen going off to save Safilos and ending up dead, which was why he asked Saleen to provide reinforcements to Holy Rock City.

The mages who attacked them were too powerful, and he deemed Saleen too ill-prepared to take them on single-handedly.

“You people did good. I’d take you all in on behalf of Safilos. Come with me. No need to worry about cleaning up the battlefield, since no one will be left alive down there, ” Saleen said as he opened a portal to take the warriors to the Floating City.

The transport was a piece of cake, as no one dared to resist.

Saleen then summoned the Violet Angel along with about 300 Bug Angel Warriors, over 100 demons, and some ancient warriors and star figures.

His ragtag forces numbered about 1,200 units. He was hoping to see which ones would be the most lethal to the mages.

Alchemy City’s mages wanted to engage with Safilos and no one was more aware of that than Saleen. That was why he took a carriage to Safilos’s city—to attract the mage’s attention.

If he was seen getting along with Safilos, those mages would have been pissed as hell.

Naturally, Saleen was using Safilos to irritate the mages of Alchemy City, but he never thought they would decimate the entire city. Safilos hadn’t declared war on the Elemental Hand, so why did those mages overstep their boundaries by doing what they did?

You sh*ts go about killing civilians just because I showed up, huh?

If he let the Elemental Hand get away with this, no one would get near him in the future.

An intense killing instinct welled up in Saleen as he cranked up the speed to over 500 kilometers an hour. Thirty minutes later, he was in Safilos’s city.

The city walls were already demolished. Hundreds of mages in the sky cast magic below.

They were working at a leisurely pace, apparently not taking Safilos for a fool.

Safilos was a level-10 true might, and there were six level-10 mages in the sky. Among the rest of the sorcerers were over a dozen level-9s. Most of the remaining sorcerers were at level-7.

Saleen might have been at level-11 at the moment, but he was still guarding against level-7 magic spells.

The city walls were crushed by level-7 mages.

The Elemental Hand suffered significant losses while clashing with the skeletal dragon. How did they manage to assemble hundreds of sorcerers in their broken conditions? That being said, Saleen had seen his fair share of grand battles and had more than 100,000 enchanters in the Floating City.

That kind of power no longer concerned Saleen. He was more afraid of high-level gods.

“Rafel, do you have a lot of experience fighting mages?” Saleen asked Rafel, who was near him.

“No. My god never picked fights with humans. That would been a calamity,” Rafel answered; this surprised Saleen. From his perspective, Rafel’s combat capacity was above her current level.

The angels of the Metal God were daunting, so the Metal God was probably equally strong. A level-18 god was the most prevailing being in existence.

So, even gods like that came to fear humans then?

Rafel seemed to know what was going on in Saleen’s mind. She said in a low voice, “My lord, humans have astronomical numbers. It wasn’t just the ones on Myers Mainland. The number of humans back then had grown so much they started giving the gods real headaches.

That’s when Saleen realized the only advantage humans had when fighting gods was superior numbers. With the races subjugated by humans and their allies considered, humans could have dominated the entire crystal wall system.

Back in the day, humans acted as if they owned the crystal wall system. They destroyed countless sovereigns, all divine kingdoms.

Saleen suddenly realized that the powerful gods had been outnumbered by humans. What’s more, humans, in a crazed state, had plundered planes and inflicted more damage than the crystal wall system could withstand.

“Well then, go out and get yourself some experience.” Saleen cast Lightning Constellation and his territorial powers were released, shrouding all mages in the area within.

Rafel attacked in silence. One-hundred metal angels appeared from behind. They were all summoned from the Floating City.

The Lightning Constellation in the sky unleashed lightning bolts. Despite being at level-11, they were not fatal to humans. None of the mages of the Elemental Hand knew that. They scattered and scurried like frightened rats, trying to take cover as the lightning bolts flew from above.

Rafel had an easy time dealing with a bunch of people who’d lost their will to fight. Yes, the enemy were mages. Yes, they were acting like timid sheep.

In addition, the level difference between the two parties meant that Rafel only needed to focus her attention on the six level-10 mages.

Saleen observed closely and found that none of the six were the elders of the Elemental Hand; they were newly advanced young people. Amazing.

Godd*mn! The Elemental Hand had become even more treacherous!

“Don’t panic!” The six core level-10 mage trainers shouted using magic that shocked mental powers. While their magic was several orders of magnitude behind Thundering Shock, it was still effective.

The mages realized that the lightning attacks only temporarily paralyzed their targets. Becoming paralyzed in battle would have been lethal; the thin bolts didn’t seem very accurate.

It was easy to evade the lightning bolts by concentrating on where they flashed.

The mages retaliated right away. High-level magic spells were cast everywhere, turning into six different waves of attacks. All spells of the six major elements took turns being cast. Rafel disappeared and charged to where the six sorcerers were.

Her crimson spear struck the oldest mage. His equipment shimmered with magic light as he stared in disbelief at the spear protruding from his chest.

Saleen chuckled. Rafel was at the pinnacle of level-12 when she undid the seal on her powers. The Inferno Spear was a weapon the Metal God had crafted for a beloved goddess. As long as the divine powers were maintained, the spear’s sharpness would put Nailisi’s Gray Memory to shame.

As Rafel yanked the spear out, a metal shield appeared on her arm, blocking a beam of gray light aimed right at her.

Wham! The shield the disintegrated into hundreds of pieces. Saleen was startled. It was Disintegration.

The success rate of that spell was lower than the Death Ray. If it met its target, it caused irreparable damage. Rafel was frightened to death at the thought of this. The mage trainer was only a level-10 but could successfully cast an instant-death spell on her.

Had she not been an angel with superior equipment, her body would have disintegrated in the blink of an eye..

Bestowed by her god, that shield had gone to waste. Rafel pivoted and launched another spear at that mage. Suddenly it became infused with green patterns, and the six eyes opened at the tip and locked onto the mage who used Disintegration.

How foolish that mage felt to be locked down by a weapon that had flown out of its owner’s hand! How could this have happened?

This was no time for questions. The six eyes on the spear consumed a large amount of divine power to lock onto the mage trainer. It slashed the huge metal shield the mage trainer had conjured and penetrated its lower abdomen.

Then the six eyes blinked as divine powers seeped. Green branches took root in the mage trainer’s body, sucking its life force dry.

Finally, a shriveled corpse collapsed to the earth. Then the other four mage trainers cast their most powerful spells at Rafel.

No way she would have taken them head-on. Level-10 mages could cast level-11 spells, and getting hit by level-11 spells was dangerous. Her equipment had been crafted by Saleen, but Rafel did not feel secure enough.

The reason was, Saleen only been at level-10 when he made that equipment.

Rafel was faster than the mage. Spreading her wings, she flew to greater altitudes before turning around. Four level-10 magic spells missed their targets: Saleen immediately sensed that something was off.

None of the mage trainers had abilities to cast level-11 magic.

The Elemental Hand was not so fearsome and its newly appointed mages were not yet experienced in combat.

Unsurprisingly, Saleen wondered if he’d been too cautious. He had been trying to lure snakes out of their lair but ended up with earthworms instead.

“Saleen!” Safilos shot up from below. His eyes were bloodshot as he roared, “Kill those assh*les for me! They’ve destroyed all my cities!”

“As you wish. Saleen saw Safilos swing that demonic blade of his to help Rafel out. Saleen himself followed the metal angels to kill the mages hidden by Lightning Constellation.

Safilos took on two level-10 mage trainers. Rafel’s task became easier as Saleen pursued the flying targets.

A sheet of ice with a diameter of over 100 meters appeared in the sky, conjured by tightly packed Icicles.

Saleen took only a second to finish the combo consisting of tens of Icicles. The spells rained all over the place within a 100-meter diameter, killing over half the remaining mages below level-8.

The metal angels charged at the mages Saleen was attacking. Their metal swords glistened with magic light. The power of the six major elements coiled around their swords, nullifying the magic shields that the mages brought up altogether.

After the metal angels came to embrace the faith of the God of Magic Net, their metal swords became imbued with anti-magic powers.

A huge flying device hovered high in the sky. It had a diameter of over 300 meters. Nine mages were standing on it, surrounded by 500 super puppets.

“Saleen has appeared. What now?” The youngest of the nine asked. They were true level-10 mages and had powerful equipment unlike those fakes down there.

“The intel was correct. That woman’s an angel.”

“No need to clash head-on. Record the whole thing and make the announcement when we get back saying this mage has betrayed humans and is allied with the gods.” The older mage had nefarious thoughts, coming up with ways to deal with Saleen in seconds.

“Are you people talking about me?” Twelve Saleen look-alikes appeared in the huge metal flying device; 11 were illusions. The one fighting down there was an illusion, too.

The mages were shocked. They all knew of Saleen’s notoriety since Alchemy City was no longer deemed to be of any value to him. If it hadn’t been for Saleen, something as treacherous as the skeletal dragon would not have been summoned in the first place.
