Annihilation

"This time, we can't just aim to repel them. These Three-Eyed Vultures are too vengeful; we must kill them all."

"But, Captain, these Three-Eyed Vultures are as cunning as eels in water, with thick skin, and they can't fight at their full strength in the air."

"I know all that, but we must do our best, otherwise these cunning fellows might come back to harass the Mana Airship after we've repelled them."

The Sky Guard Corps gathered to discuss countermeasures. They were determined to kill all the attacking Three-Eyed Vultures Three-Eyed Vulture time to prevent a recurrence.

As the Barrier Magic was activated, all the Sky Guard Corps used Flight Magic to engage in a fierce battle with the Three-Eyed Vultures. Himmel watched the two sides fighting in the sky and couldn't help but feel worried. If they were on land, he could have stepped forward to help, but here they were thousands of meters in the air, and he could only stand on the Mana Airship and worry for them.

"Heiter, you said if we could fly, we could be of some help fighting these Three-Eyed Vultures."

Himmel's eyes held a hint of tension, and he couldn't help but cheer on the defending forces battling in the sky.

"Himmel, don't dream of the impossible. Even if we could fly, we'd still be no match for those Three-Eyed Vultures. Their Mana is too immense; our attacks would probably just be a tickle to them."

Heiter ruthlessly shattered Himmel's illusions, a bitter smile on his face. Monsters of this level were simply beyond the capabilities of children like them.

"Hmm, what are you two little ones talking about?"

Li Yan appeared beside them at just the right moment and gently patted them on the shoulders.

Hearing the familiar voice, Himmel and Heiter looked up at their Godfather. "We were just talking about the Three-Eyed Vulture. We want to go help the Sky Guard Corps and do our part for everyone on the airship."

As Himmel spoke, Li Yan felt a slight sense of emotion. It had to be said that Himmel already possessed a heroic spirit at such a young age. Fortunately, the era Himmel lived in was not Li Yan's previous life, but this simple and unadorned world.

"Don't worry about that, Himmel. The guards will take care of everything for us."

Li Yan chuckled and patted Himmel's head, then looked up at the guards battling the Three-Eyed Vulture.

Perhaps due to Li Yan's toxic milk taking effect, a member of the guard force was slammed against the barrier by the wing of Three-Eyed Vulture.

"Uh... I think this was just an accident."

Li Yan looked at the guardian mages on the barrier with a wry smile. Many airship staff rushed to open the barrier and take the injured guardian mages into the medical room for treatment.

Himmel and Heiter blinked slightly. In just a few seconds, several members of the guard force were knocked away from the barrier. Only the captain of the guard force struggled to hold on in the air. As a second-level mage, he possessed combat experience and deeper Mana that other third-level mages did not have.

"Dear passengers, if you are a level 3 or 2 mage who has mastered Flight Magic, please gather on the first floor. For the safety of the magic airship, the best way now is for everyone to unite and fight against the Monsters."

The announcement suddenly blared, throwing all the merchants and adventurers on the first floor into chaos. This announcement undoubtedly meant that the staff of the magic airship were unable to resolve the dangerous situation.

"I'm a level three mage, but I might lack combat experience. Can I still go?"

"I am a level four mage. Although I have very little Mana, I still want to contribute my share."

"I am a Warrior. As long as I can fly, I don't care about those Three-Eyed Vultures."

The adventurers on the first floor set off in an orderly fashion toward the rendezvous point, their faces bearing expressions of resignation. Although they lacked the confidence to fight the Three-Eyed Vulture, they were willing to give it a try for the sake of all the passengers on the airship.

Seemingly moved by the adventurers' conviction, Himmel straightened up and stepped forward, determined to do his part, even if it meant sacrificing his life.

"Himmel, where are you going?"

Heiter frantically grabbed Himmel's clothes. He didn't understand why Himmel, a little child, was getting involved in this mess. She wasn't a magician and couldn't fly.

"Heiter, even though I don't have the ability to fly, I believe that as long as you're willing to help, the problem of the Three-Eyed Vultures attacking the magic airship will definitely be solved."

Himmel exhaled a breath of stale air. This world needs heroes, and now is the best time for him to appear as such. Even if he might not be able to help, he still wanted to go and contribute his strength.

Li Yan looked with relief at Simmel, who, despite being weak, unable to fly, and knowing that she couldn't help the passengers on the Mana Airship, still bravely forged ahead, displaying the Himmel of a hero.

Just as Himmel was about to head towards the gathering place of adventurers with his Bootleg Holy Sword, Li Yan gently reached out and pressed his shoulder. "Himmel, if my master finds out about this, I'll be severely punished."

"I don't condone the act of knowingly going to one's death when one is weak."

Feeling the strong hand on her shoulder, Himmel was slightly taken aback. At that moment, the meager Mana on Li Yan's body fluctuated instantly, followed by the unfolding of powerful Mana.

"Sit on my shoulders, Himmel, and I'll show you what a real fight is."

Li Yan gently reached out and lifted Himmel onto his shoulder, followed by the still somewhat bewildered Heiter, carrying two children on his shoulders. At this moment, Li Yan resembled the five- Sett from the Golden Spatula, lifting weights before the battle, and Jiraiya with two toads sitting on his shoulders.

With the activation of Space Magic, Li Yan instantly broke through the Barrier Magic and arrived in front of the Three-Eyed Vulture. At this moment, with Himmel and Heiter sitting on his shoulders, Li Yan seemed to have entered Sage Mode, and all the passengers on the magic airship stared in astonishment.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

A fireball gathered in Li Yan's palm, and a huge fireball slammed straight into the still somewhat dazed Three-Eyed Vulture. With just one ordinary giant fireball at close range, the Three-Eyed Vulture was burned to ashes.

The death of their companion caused the Three-Eyed Vultures to abandon their pursuit of the guard captain. Enraged, they spat a scorching flame in Li Yan 'Li Yan direction, attempting to burn him alive.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Descent!"

A giant water dragon, formed from Mana, charged straight at the other Three-Eyed Vultures. The flames were swallowed by the rising water dragon, which then attacked one of the Three-Eyed Vultures.

As the water dragon opened its roaring maw, the Three-Eyed Vulture, which had been targeted, frantically tried to escape. However, the water dragon seemed to be alive, closely following behind the Three-Eyed Vulture. With one gulp, the Three-Eyed Vulture was swallowed whole. As the water dragon exploded on its own, the Three-Eyed Vulture that had been swallowed was completely turned into blood, which sprayed everywhere.

Two left.

Li Yan looked at the other two Three-Eyed Vultures with great interest, pondering what kind of magic she could use to deal with them gracefully.

"Hiss!"

The Three-Eyed Vultures Three-Eyed Vulture out, realizing that the enemy before them was not to be trifled with. They flapped their wings and flew away in a disheveled manner towards the clouds high in the sky.

"Trying to run? The Black Hole Annihilation!"

Li Yan smiled slightly, and a small oval black hole appeared in his hand. As the black hole appeared, the surrounding air was continuously drawn into it, and the space trembled slightly.

As the small black hole was thrown out, the Three-Eyed Vulture, which was flapping its wings and fleeing at top speed, was completely stuck by the strong suction. No matter how desperately it flapped its wings, its body was slowly pulled into the black hole. The surrounding space gradually distorted, and the suction gradually increased. The Three-Eyed Vulture was pulled into the black hole little by little, like a butcher waiting to slaughter its prey.

Blood mist drifted from the sky, and the captain of the guard force stared in disbelief. Not only the captain of the guard force, but also the adventurers and merchants on the Mana Airship were shocked.
