Chapter 442 - 259: You’ll Never Know Unless You Try
"Have they escaped?"
Inside the Starlight Wizard Tower, watching the two Wizard Towers retreating in disarray on the screen, Sunan sneered slightly.
Lize, standing behind him, couldn’t hide her delight and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a great burden had been lifted from her shoulders.
The battle had developed to this point, and the victory of the Star Alliance was beyond doubt.
The sword hanging over their heads had finally disappeared.
At least, it had disappeared for now.
However, the war wasn’t over, and it was their turn to counterattack next.
Lize glanced at Sunan, who had already issued the pursuit command.
The Starlight Wizard Tower rapidly pursued the enemy, with the Master-Touch Puppet and Secret Puppet following closely behind.
The flying fleet stayed behind to assist the Golem Legion and Demon Pattern Knight Order in exterminating the Black Wolf.
"Tower Spirit No. 1, how much energy is left?"
[Main container energy remaining: 4.29%.]
"Has it consumed that much? Activate the reserve energy."
[Reserve energy activated, remaining energy increased to 54.29%.]
"Activate the Dissociation Cannon Type II."
[Command received.]
A thick, grayish beam swiftly shot out from the top of the Starlight Wizard Tower, crossing more than two thousand meters in an instant and accurately hitting the Night Shadow Wizard Tower!
Buzz!
The energy field enveloping the Night Shadow Wizard Tower instantly collapsed, its durability reduced to zero. The remaining dissociation beam struck the tower, as if an invisible beast had taken a fierce bite, leaving a large chunk missing from the tower.
Following closely, countless spell beams rained down, riddling the Night Shadow Wizard Tower with holes.
The Night Shadow Wizard Tower quickly followed in the footsteps of the other Wizard Towers, falling to the ground, trailing smoke.
"Damn it!"
Witnessing this scene, Youxi felt both furious and heartbroken.
After accumulating for over three thousand years, he only had five Wizard Towers under him, and now four of them were destroyed in an instant, obliterating millennia of effort, leaving his heart aching as if bleeding.
But no matter how angry he was, Youxi dared not turn back to retaliate; instead, he had to speed up his escape.
Yet he soon found that no matter how much he accelerated, he could not distance himself from the Starlight Wizard Tower behind him, remaining within its long-range firepower the entire time.
Spell beams continued to bombard, occasionally interspersed with a dissociation beam. The durability of the Dusk Wizard Tower’s energy field was visibly dropping rapidly.
[Warning! Energy field durability is plummeting, remaining at 30%!]
[Warning! Energy field durability is plummeting, remaining at 20%!]
[Warning! Energy field durability is plummeting, remaining at 10%, entering danger zone!]
As soon as the warning from the Tower Spirit finished, another dissociation beam hit the energy field, instantly reducing its durability to below 5%.
Seeing this, the Wizards of the Dark Throne could no longer sit still.
"How have they not run out of energy yet? Not even a large Elemental Pool has this much energy!"
"No, if this continues, the Dusk Wizard Tower will surely be destroyed as well!"
"Lord Youxi, let’s abandon the tower!"
"Yes, once we reach the Wolf Tide Plane, we’ll have time to recuperate!"
Youxi’s face was extremely grim.
Abandoning the Dusk Wizard Tower after retreating?
This was his greatest reliance apart from the Wolf Tide Plane!
Without the Dusk Wizard Tower, his status in the Dark Throne would inevitably plummet, unable to recover vitality for a thousand years.
However, in the mere moment of his hesitation, the Dusk Wizard Tower’s energy field was finally depleted, completely collapsing and disappearing.
In the distance, a dazzling light blossomed at the top of the Starlight Wizard Tower, a new wave of firepower was brewing.
"My lord!" The Wizards were extremely anxious.
Youxi took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice, "Abandon the tower!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and left the Dusk Wizard Tower one after another.
The next second, countless beams of light engulfed the Dusk Wizard Tower, and with a rumbling sound, the massive Wizard Tower fell to the ground trailing smoke.
Youxi and his more than twenty Wizards transformed into streaks of light, rushing towards the forest without looking back.
"They’re quite decisive."
Sunan chuckled and pursued without pause.
Youxi himself was immensely powerful, and these Wizards under him weren’t weak either, with even several Level 2 Wizards among them.
Even the Spell Tower Type II, with its dispersed power, posed little threat to these people.
Over a distance of just a few kilometers, the Starlight Wizard Tower only managed to kill four Level 1 Wizards.
The remaining individuals had already fled into the forest.
From the high vantage point, embedded in the center of the dense forest was a vast clearing, where a towering gate over fifty meters high and more than twenty meters wide stood, with countless Black Wolves continuously pouring out from behind the gate.
In a flash of light, Youxi and the others had already rushed into the gate, disappearing without a trace.
"A Plane Channel," Sunan’s eyes flickered slightly, immediately issuing a command without hesitation, "No. 1, dimension traverse!"
[Energy remaining: 5.29%, insufficient for dimension traversal.]
Sunan frowned slightly.
Unlike ordinary creatures that can enter other planes through Plane Channels, a massive war structure like the Wizard Tower cannot cross Planar Channels and can only perform dimension traversal.
But doing so consumes a considerable amount of energy.
The recent intense bombardment had been so satisfying that there wasn’t even enough energy left for dimension traversal.
Lize suggested, "Let’s wait. The Plane Channel won’t close immediately, and we have enough time to wait for the army to push forward before counterattacking the Wolf Tide Plane."
Sunan shook his head, "Doing so will surely let those guys get away."
To eradicate the threat, those Wizards needed to be completely eliminated for his conquest of the Wolf Tide Plane to go smoothly; otherwise, allowing the controllers of the Wolf Tide Plane to escape would complicate the process of taking over the plane.
