They had, very unfortunately, walked into a hunting party sent out by the harpies
It was a small party of no more than thirty harpies, and most of them were just ordinary harpies They were two st their ranks One of therade harpy witch
These stubborn felloere coh they were much weaker when co the way of the ship Alle wave of spells Sadly the two mutated harpies were able to escape
The very next day, the floating battleship was surrounded as it flew over a chasm The harpy army had hurried over thebattleship cruised forith great difficulty
The harpies were circling and flying around the egg-shaped barrier Their piercing shouts were so loud they could even shatter the eardru to theic eleed at the defensive barrier ooden spears in their claws These crude attacks ainst ordinary beasts, but they were completely useless when used to attack a defensive barrier
As such, a thousand harpies attacking in unison achieved absolutely nothing Other than causing so they achieved was exhausting a little of the ship's reserve energy They had absolutely no chance of cracking the defensive arrays!
However, there were so their ranks
Harpies were usually creatures with gray feathers and ugly appearances They looked more like birds than humans However the mutated individuals had already shed the feathers on their bodies Only a few patches of blue feathers remained on their joints
Their exposed skin hite and sures were slim and curvaceous, with exceptionally delicate and perfect facial features However, their eyes were as red as blood, their fingers crooked and sharp, and a pair of horrendous claws grew beneath their thighs where their feet was supposed to be
Honestly, if one were to ignore those ugly wings and claws, these harpy witches could be said to be extre to Gree, soanizations on the East Coast Those were the mixed-blood descendants born of human adepts and harpy witches
Of course, this also proved that some human adepts had really unusual tastes!
The adepts attacked with all their strength to drive the harpies away They couldn't be allowed to dealthe battleship Spells of every color and effect exploded like fireworks around the ship One after another, the harpies were engulfed by powerful elementium vortices
A snowstor a layer of light blue frost over every single harpy caught in it Countless harpies tried their best to beat their gray wings, but they could only feel their wings beco heavier and heavier
Eventually the harpies started to fall froained their ability to fly after they left the area covered by the snowstorm Still, the appearance of the stor chaos into the ranks of the harpies
A wind adept standing not far froe area-of-effect The peaceful skies were suddenly filled with danger and terror Invisible tornadoes of wind hid in the air Any harpies that accidentally stu winds Pungent mists of blood would erupt in the air
Greeolems or use his Flame Fiend Transformation Instead he took out his Fire Lord’s Scepter and behaved as any other fire adept would, slowly firing off one fire spell after another
He ceaselessly chanted and cast spells His loud and fir out, and a red pillar of fire was conjured in mid air Powerful ripples of fire spread out froulfed by the ripples would be burnt to death Even those that survived had their wings charred and ruined, and were sent falling a thousand round
The ordinary adepts had no ability to fly after their feathers had been completely reduced to ashes
As Greem continued to channel several powerful fire spells, he looked about at the chaos going on around him Periodically, fire would burn in his eyes and a powerful Scalding Ray would shoot out towards the harpies
It ay too ainst these unar Ray wasRay shot out continuously, piercing through the bodies of the harpies and sentencing them to a painful death as they fell from the air Black patterns would spread all over their body as they fell
The poison from the Scroll of Voodoo would quickly take their lives even if the Scalding Ray hadn't ed to kill them
Feathers and blood filled the air around the battleship
The harpies were being slaughtered by the adepts!
