"They're here again! Watch out!" someone shouted.
Angele had no time to respond; his expression turned serious as he looked at those wind elementals.
"Damn, they are not wind elementals, they are wind demons!" Justin shouted anxiously. "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
The wizards' faces all turned paler hearing the word.
"I've only heard about wind demons from the tales!" Aria sounded nervous.
"Penetration! Penetration! Penetration! Penetration!" There were strange expressions on the wind demons' faces. They charged toward the wizards as they yelled, "We'll penetrate all the holes!"
Reminder: the wind demons all looked like adult men with muscular bodies.
"Ah!" Monteria blushed and screamed. She quickly put her hand on her butt. She stared at the wind demon that was rotating around her.
The wind demon was chuckling and shouting, its shape shifting. The wind demon looked like a muscular man the last second, but it could turn itself into wind the next second.
"I hate the ancient wizards who created the wind demons!" Aria was also screaming.
Angele dragged Becky to the side and tried to fight off the wind demons that were charging at them using his fists.
"Wind elementals have high resistance, but you can handle the wind demons using spells!" he advised.
The wizards all put up defensive spells or barriers, however, the wind demons were attacking them from strange angles. With the strong chilling wind blowing over their faces, the wizards almost forgot that the wind demons were creations of human beings and their magic resistance was much lower than the wind elementals'.
The wizards were being chased around by the wind demons when they heard Angele's words. Miray was no longer behaving like an elegant noble. He covered his butt with both hands and stayed behind the blue energy barrier he created, checking the surroundings constantly.
"Let me do it!" Monteria was enraged, she took out a hexagonal crystal from her pouch. The crystal had the size of a fist; she threw it at the wind demons.
*BAM*
A large ball of black clouds exploded and surrounded the wizards.
"Dark Cloud Ancestor! Heed my call!" Monteria was shouting like crazy.
The dark clouds gathered and formed a giant that was over 30 meters tall. Angele could only see the upper body of the cloud giant—the bottom half of his body was completely covered by the clouds.
Monteria pointed at the wind demons.
"Dark Cloud Ancestor! Kill those wind demons!"
"Yes!" Dark Cloud Ancestor answered and tried to grab the wind demons.
"Run!"
"Retreat!"
The wind demons were moving at full speed, they disappeared from the area within seconds.
The wizards were a bit speechless.
"That speed…" Angele's head ached. He would only be able to catch the wind demons when he was in the light form. According to the information collected by the biochip, the wind demons were traveling at 10000 meters per second.
The wind weakened as the wind demons left.
Monteria's eyes were red and there were tears in her eyes. The Dark Cloud Ancestor was still in the sky, waiting for her next order.
"Those creatures… Damn… They're so disrespectful!" Aria walked to Monteria and hugged her. "They already left, calm down."
There was a bitter smile on Justin's face. "I didn't expect you to summon Dark Cloud Ancestor here... I would cast a strong spell too in that situation…" He hated the wind demons as well.
"Who created those sick wind demons? Why did they do that?" Miray was still covering his butt with hands. "I'd cast a strong damage spell if Monteria didn't summon Dark Cloud Ancestor." He looked at the other female wizard in the team, but it seemed like the woman was not concerned.
Miray then looked at Justin and Angele.
"Let me explain." Angele released Becky's hand; the woman was so scared that her face turned white.
"I heard wind demons were created by an ancient wizard named Ohalla in a lab accident. Ohalla was an evil wizard, he was trying to create a strong being using the evil thoughts of humans. Sadly, he failed the experiment."
"Which means, the wind demons are wind elementals with the evil thoughts of human beings?" Aria was speechless.
"Well, if you think about it in a different way, he succeeded." Angele shrugged. "Wind demons are always horny, but they are void creatures and can block mid-level spells easily. Also, they move so fast that they can't be captured. If we can take control of the wind demons and equip them with weapons, they'll become the best assassins in this world."
"Well, you need to find a way to control them first," Justin interrupted. "I also read about the wind demons, but they're just trouble to me."
"There's a way to stop the wind demons," Angele continued and the wizards all looked at him.
"What?" Monteria questioned, she was still blushing and it seemed like she really wanted to kill the wind demons.
"A force field that is extremely strong. Wind demons will be in trouble if a force field could slow them down. Their bodies and souls are pure wind energy. Wind energy needs to keep moving, the wind demons will lose the ability to move or think if the wind stops. In other words, you can kill them using force fields that can slow them down or stop them from moving," Angele explained.
"You know a lot," Miray praised. "I've never read about the information you mentioned, even in the royal library."
"You're weak, but you do know a lot." Aria was not being polite. "We all know a force field or two that can slow them down, but how strong does the force field need to be?"
"In terms of radiation energy, your energy level needs to be around 1000 degrees," Angele answered.
"A force field with 1000 degrees of radiation energy? We're not talking about Legacy Magic Circle, right?" Aria rolled her eyes.
The incident made the team grow closer and the wizards engaged in more short conversations. People would show their true thoughts during a crisis and they had a much easier time communicating with each other.
Dark Cloud Ancestor would last for three days, so they could rest without worrying about anything.
Aria was still preparing for the portal, she needed to set up the coordinates for her friends.
In the afternoon, the wizards had some snacks and desserts. Aria decided to prepare the coordinates after the food break.
Aria and Miray stood in the center of the rune circle. They stood opposite each other and closed their eyes with a golden circle in hand.
They started chanting the incantation using a language that Angele had never heard of, however, he could understand what they were saying. It was a strange feeling.
"The lord is here. Gather. Void!" The golden circle in their hand started glowing.
The golden light was getting more and more intense. The wizards could barely keep their eyes open.
Seconds later, the light disappeared and two more white robes appeared in the circle. It was a man and a woman; they were also holding a golden circle in hand.
"Thanks," the female white robe spoke in a deep tone, she sounded like a leader of a group.
They turned around and Angele glanced at them.
The woman had an attractive body, she was wearing a ponytail. There was a cold expression on her average-looking face.
The man had a pretty face and clear skin. It almost looked like he was made of jade. The man was tall and looked depressed for some reason.
The two white robes noticed the Dark Cloud Ancestor. Justin and Monteria started talking to them, but Angele and Becky just stayed on the side. They were still resting.
The team checked their equipment and started climbing again. Their speed increased after the two white robes joined them. Dark Cloud Ancestor made sure that no wind elemental or wind demon approached.
Two days later, they finally reached the top of the vine. It was a spacious platform.
The platform was smooth like a large piece of emerald and there was a vase-shaped black stone pillar that was about two meters tall in its center.
Fiona and Anchura's groups were already there, but they found a group of strangers on the opposite side. It was a group of strong wizards wearing long black robes with golden edges. They were confronting Fiona and Simon.
Angele could detect the remaining energy waves in the air, it seemed like they already had a battle.
Fiona's expression loosened after she saw Angele's team. "Attack them! They're elites of the Dark Wizard Tower."
Monteria gave an order Dark Cloud Ancestor and attacked the wizards of the Dark Wizard Tower. The rest of the team also cast spells, there were colorful light rays flashing in the air.
Black strings, red clouds, ice snakes, and other strange things were flying at the members of Dark Wizard Tower. The exploding energy particles turned the platform into a mess and the wind was extremely strong.
Fiona and the other wizards started attacking as well. It seemed like they were following someone's command. They released several blue plates—ice wolves jumped out of them, charging at the enemies. More than 30 ice wolves appeared on the platform within seconds.
The ice wolves could release ice rays through their mouths and there were ice flames burning on their claws. Their enemies would freeze if they were attacked by the ice flames.
Angele activated the stealth technique and stepped back with Becky. He released several rank 2 lion men, but he was glancing around the platform. It seemed like he was looking for something.
