The Synthesis Wizard-Chapter 306:Not Just One Yellow Bird
Chapter 306 - 306:Not Just One Yellow Bird
The Magic Crystal Superconducting Pulse Cannon is the standard strategic long-range strike weapon of the sky city.
It belongs to a type of phase weapon, academically known as an elemental particle beam directed energy strategic weapon.
This weapon is immensely powerful, with a single shot capable of destroying a large wizard tower. It is said to have been developed with deities as the hypothetical enemy.
Even a True Spirit Wizard, as powerful as they are, dare not directly withstand a shot from the Magic Crystal Superconducting Pulse Cannon.
However, the Magic Crystal Superconducting Pulse Cannon has significant drawbacks: it consumes an enormous amount of energy, cannot perform continuous or area bombardment, and cannot be overloaded for devastating strikes.
Thus, only a sky city equipped with an elemental furnace can use the Magic Crystal Superconducting Pulse Cannon as a long-range strike weapon.
Just as the superconducting pulse ray was about to hit the Spider Palace, a spider suddenly descended on a thread, precisely blocking the path of the ray.
It ignited with an eerie violet flame, rapidly expanding into a fireball that intercepted the ray.
Compared to the thick ray, the fireball, only the size of a basin, seemed insignificant. Yet, upon contact, the ray was swiftly dissipated and consumed, vanishing in an instant.
The fireball twisted rapidly, transforming into a tall, beautiful woman.
It was none other than the target of the Star Spirit Clock Tower's mission—the Spider Queen! "Gunter Sharp."
The Spider Queen's lips parted, uttering icy words.
"So it was the Star Spirit Clock Tower behind all this!"
Her response was another superconducting pulse ray.
The Spider Queen sneered coldly, waving her dagger to release a large swath of violet flame, effortlessly deflecting the ray with a graceful motion.
If it were just her own power, she would be utterly incapable of withstanding the Magic Crystal Superconducting Pulse Cannon. But now, within her divine realm, even though its power had been greatly weakened, she still received immense enhancement, fearlessly confronting the sky city alone.
The Star Spirit Clock Tower had no intention of engaging in dialogue, and the Spider Queen, seeing this, wasted no words. In a flash, she darted towards the City of Blazing Sun.
Simultaneously, a horde of giant spiders surged from behind her, flooding towards the numerous wizard towers.
A higher-level slaughter had begun!
The violent energy particle fluctuations, like a hurricane, swept across the sky, clearing the clouds for thousands of kilometers around.
Even the Blood River below seemed suppressed, its turbulent surface suddenly calming.
The evil spirits dove into the river, not daring to surface, fearing to be caught in the battle.
In the distance, Su Nan looked up, seeing flashes of light in the sky, with waves of surging, majestic energy fluctuations.
Even from afar, the overwhelming aura was palpable.
"This is the power of a deity," Su Nan silently marveled.
Even with significant injuries and the chaotic laws of the Blood Abyss suppressing her, the Spider Queen could still contend with the True Spirit Wizard piloting the sky city.
At first glance, it seemed the Star Spirit Clock Tower had a slight advantage, but Su Nan, familiar with the unfolding events, knew the Spider Queen must have a hidden card.
As time passed, casualties on both sides increased.
The Wizard's golem legion dwindled rapidly, and more than half of the war constructs were destroyed.
The Petitioners also suffered heavy losses.
From the depths of the Abyssal Demonweb, the once endless stream of Petitioners ceased.
Looking around, only about forty to fifty thousand Petitioners remained on the battlefield.

Su Nan could feel the divine pressure from the divine realm around him had weakened significantly.
The power of the Abyssal Demonweb had been suppressed to its lowest.
But at that moment, an icy, bone-chilling coldness suddenly descended.
In the distant sky, a layer of profound darkness appeared, spreading at an astonishing speed.
In an instant, the entire sky was dyed with a deep darkness, and a heavy, cold aura enveloped the world.
In the darkness, a moon slowly rose.
Unlike the usual bright, jade-like moon, this one carried a faint, eerie aura. Just looking at it made one's body shiver and scalp tingle.
"The Dark Moon," Su Nan inhaled softly.
"The Spider Queen has absorbed the Crescent Moon Divine Authority so quickly."
Su Nan now understood why the Spider Queen could repel the ambushing Wizards.
Her compatibility with the Crescent Moon Divine Authority far exceeded everyone's expectations, allowing her to absorb it in just a year or two.
Perhaps not perfectly, but enough to recover her injuries and greatly enhance her power.
The sudden turn of events threw the Star Spirit Clock Tower into chaos.
Before they could react, the moonlight, imbued with a dark essence, cascaded down like liquid silver.
Though intangible, when it fell upon the City of Blazing Sun and the war constructs, they were struck as if by a heavy blow. The energy fields on their surfaces flickered and distorted wildly, rippling intensely.
Over a dozen small wizard towers were the first to fall. Their energy fields collapsed rapidly, and upon contact with the moonlight, the towers disintegrated into dust.
In a flash, over a dozen small wizard towers, along with the Wizards inside, were annihilated.
Buzz! The sun-like orb above the City of Blazing Sun shone brightly, releasing a stronger golden halo to protect the surrounding wizard towers, barely withstanding the cold moonlight.
But other war constructs and golem puppets were not so fortunate, disintegrating under the moonlight.
In an instant, the Star Spirit Clock Tower, which had seemed to have the upper hand, was now in dire straits.
Su Nan, watching from the shadows, had to release liquid metal to envelop his body, shielding himself from the cold moonlight.
Looking at the cold moonlight that almost covered the entire sky, Su Nan shook his head slightly.
The Star Spirit Clock Tower had prepared for everything, except for the Spider Queen's rapid absorption of the Crescent Moon Divine Authority, greatly enhancing her power.
For deities, Divine Authority is the source of power.
No matter how obscure or narrow the Divine Authority, it grants the deity immense power.
Moreover, the Crescent Moon Divine Authority is far from obscure; it is a rather potent one.
Now, the Spider Queen was no longer a foe a True Spirit Wizard and a sky city could handle.
The key was that the Spider Queen had not revealed her true strength initially, deliberately suppressing her power to engage with the Star Spirit Clock Tower. Only when the war reached its peak, and the Star Spirit Clock Tower was deeply entangled, did she bare her fangs.
The Star Spirit Clock Tower miscalculated, leading to the failure of their meticulously planned operation.
The consequences of this failure were undoubtedly severe.
The Dark Moon hung high in the sky, its cold moonlight suppressing the Star Spirit Clock Tower while empowering the spider demons.
The empowered spider demons surged forward fearlessly, attacking the Star Spirit Clock Tower.
The situation took a drastic turn for the worse!
"Hiss!"
At the center of the Abyssal Demonweb, the massive Spider Palace came to life, its sharp legs moving like a whirlwind as it charged towards the City of Blazing Sun, spewing a thick glob of venom!
Sizzle!
The venom landed on the golden halo surrounding the sky city, sizzling and emitting white smoke, while the golden halo visibly dimmed.
Buzz! The City of Blazing Sun fired a superconducting pulse ray, striking the Palace Spider, causing a massive explosion and leaving a huge crater.
Yet, the Palace Spider felt no pain, raising its blade-like legs high, tearing through the void to slash fiercely at the City of Blazing Sun! The two colossal beings clashed violently in the sky! As time passed, the situation increasingly favored the Spider Queen.
Under the combined assault of the Palace Spider and the Spider Queen, the City of Blazing Sun gradually found itself overwhelmed, forced to contract its golden halo to protect itself.
Without the City of Blazing Sun's protection, the other wizard towers' situations worsened rapidly.
Under the fearless, ferocious attacks of the spider demons, the energy fields of the wizard towers were breached one after another, plummeting to the ground in smoke.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, the City of Blazing Sun finally took action.
The sun-like orb above the city suddenly blazed with intense light, rapidly expanding like an inflating balloon. With a thunderous roar, the orb burst, releasing countless rays shooting in all directions.
Not a single one missed!
The Spider Queen's expression changed slightly, her figure flickering like the wind, precisely dodging the incoming rays.
The Palace Spider, however, was not as agile. Its massive body absorbed most of the rays, instantly riddled with holes, crashing to the ground like a falling star.
The Petitioners fared even worse.
Where the rays passed, the spider demons vaporized without even a scream.
In the blink of an eye, the Petitioners' formation was shattered.
Seizing the opportunity, the City of Blazing Sun tore open a spatial rift and vanished into it.
The remaining wizard towers followed suit, fleeing in disarray.
In an instant, the Star Spirit Clock Tower escaped the battlefield, leaving behind a scene of devastation.
The Spider Queen gazed at the slowly closing spatial rift, sneering, but made no move to pursue.
Having fought Wizards for years, she knew well the price the City of Blazing Sun had paid for that powerful strike.
It was said the core of the City of Blazing Sun was the Heart of the Blazing Sun, the most precious part of the sky city—the sun-like golden orb.
To escape, they had destroyed the Heart of the Blazing Sun. Gunter Sharp had undoubtedly paid a heavy price.
In comparison, her losses were negligible.
The damaged Spider Palace could be repaired.
As for the fallen Petitioners, she could slowly replenish them from her followers.
With the Crescent Moon Divine Authority now absorbed, she could expand her sphere of faith, increasing the number of followers.
In a few centuries, the lost Petitioners would be replenished.
In the distance.
Watching the City of Blazing Sun disappear into the spatial rift, Su Nan frowned slightly.
The outcome was decided. The Star Spirit Clock Tower had suffered heavy losses, just as he remembered.
But what puzzled him was that the Spider Queen didn't seem severely injured.
If so, why did she later disappear?
Or was it his presence as a butterfly that caused a change in events?
Su Nan quickly dismissed this thought.
He had almost no interaction with the Star Spirit Clock Tower, and his encounter with the Spider Queen was limited to a single clash over two thousand years ago, hardly enough to influence this event.
Logically, this event couldn't have changed because of him.
If it wasn't a change, then there was only one explanation.
This event wasn't over yet!
Su Nan's eyes flickered, and he concealed his presence even more.
If his guess was wrong, with the Spider Queen still retaining most of her combat power, he couldn't possibly intervene. The best course was to leave quietly, ensuring the Spider Queen didn't detect his presence.
But if his guess was correct, it meant there was likely more than one "yellow sparrow" present.
As if to confirm Su Nan's speculation, a massive silver vortex suddenly appeared in the distant sky.
Following it, a sky city, similar in style to the City of Blazing Sun but with a darker, colder architectural theme, emerged from the vortex.
Behind it followed numerous wizard towers and an army of massive bone giants.
"The Bone Hunters!" Su Nan's gaze sharpened.
The Bone Hunters were the iconic war constructs of the Dark Throne. The identity of the newcomers was clear.
"The Dark Throne!"
Even when surrounded by the Star Spirit Clock Tower, the Spider Queen had remained composed. But upon seeing the Dark Throne, her expression changed drastically.
Known for her cunning, the Spider Queen quickly realized the situation, her eyes twitching slightly.
"If Gunter Sharp knew he was being used by you, I wonder if he'd be furious enough to vomit blood."
"Whether he vomits blood or not, I don't know. But you will die here today."
A deep voice echoed from the sky city, resonating across the heavens.
Deities and True Spirit Wizards had clashed many times in the Realm of Truth, and they were well acquainted.
Hearing the voice, the Spider Queen immediately knew who it was.
"I knew it was you, Jude. You always loved scheming behind the scenes."
"Being called a schemer by the Spider Queen, the master of Schemes, should I feel honored?"
"Do you think this is enough to kill me?"
"We'll see."
The last words carried an unmistakable cold, murderous intent.
As the words fell, a superconducting pulse ray shot from the sky city, whistling through the air as it hurtled towards the Spider Queen.
The Spider Queen snorted coldly, deflecting the ray with her dagger, while pointing a finger. Thousands of spider demons on the ground let out
a chilling, heart-rending scream, their bodies igniting with violet flames, surging towards the Palace Spider.
The Palace Spider quickly became a ball of fire, its wounds healing visibly under the flames. In moments, it was back to full strength, screeching as it charged at the enemy.
Above the Blood River, where a fierce battle had just ended, a new war erupted! (End of Chapter)
