"Whoo!"
In the high sky, the raging wind howled, bringing bone-chilling cold that seemed to penetrate the marrow, extremely icy. In such high altitudes, humans couldn't function normally.
Low temperatures would steal away their body heat.
Oxygen deficiency could become their deadly cause.
Combined with the howling winds and the different air pressure from the ground, ordinary people would undoubtedly endure extremely harsh conditions here. How could they function normally?
However, at this very moment, above the suspended warship in the clouds, a young man appeared.
The howling cold wind didn't take away his body temperature; it only made his coat rustle, sprinkling countless sparkling fire powders, as if a god descending from the sky, incredibly awe-inspiring.
Rozen, relying on the protection of Kinu, resisted the external influences. Even in such high altitudes, he remained composed, solving the issue of oxygen deficiency with magic. He could freely soar through the sky, even leaving the atmosphere and venturing into space without any problem.
Such Rozen only gazed at the warship ahead, displaying a provocative smile.
That smile seemed to provoke the other side, causing the land battleship named Daedalus to suddenly move.
"Crack..."
The main cannon on the warship turned completely, aiming towards the disturbance in front.
The main cannon of Daedalus protruded from the ship, targeting Rozen.
"Boom!"
In the next second, under the firing sound of the cannon, the fierce artillery barrage, like a rushing flame, blasted towards Rozen's location.
"Bang!"
In the explosion, the shell hit Rozen's location, creating a burst of flames and a wave of fire, like a magnificent fireworks display in the high sky.
Unfortunately...
"Is this the only resistance you can muster right now?"
In the midst of the explosion, a voice slowly sounded.
"It's a bit disappointing."
Rozen casually said these words, and his figure, draped in a coat, slowly appeared in the waves of fire, completely unharmed.
"Order."
Rozen threw out a talisman in his hand, making it shine in the high sky.
Then, countless flames turned into projectiles, like a pouring rain of fire, each one bombarding the direction where Daedalus was located.
"Hum..."
The space around Daedalus instantly distorted, making the fiery projectiles, like hitting empty space, all pass through Daedalus's hull and rush towards the rear of the warship.
Seeing this scene, Rozen showed no surprise but instead confirmed once again.
"Daedalus is equipped with spatial magic circuits," he noted.
Though different from Magnus's Kamakiri, which is a spatial transfer type circuit, Daedalus's circuit is distortion-based. However, both are grand magics of the spatial type, that's beyond doubt.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom...!"
Leveraging the distortion of space, Daedalus completely disregarded external attacks, continuously firing its main cannon, making the artillery fierce like fire, constantly bombarding Rozen's direction.
In response, Rozen simply released several Fire talisman, liberating the jutsuryoku on them once again. They turned into countless blocks of flaming masses, heading towards the incoming artillery.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang...!"
For a moment, in the high sky, the collision of artillery and artillery created explosions and shocks, scattering scorching waves of fire. The surrounding clouds were completely blown away, leaving nothing behind.
Rozen, single-handedly opposing a warship, engaged in such a fierce battle in the high sky, astonishing everyone who observed the situation through various means.
But for Rozen, this was just an appetizer.
Since advancing into the realm of "Mind's Eye," Rozen had made significant improvements and refinements to various spells. He gained higher control and usage, even raising his ability to create talismans to an astonishing level. He even improved healing talismans, developing blood-boosting talismans. It's easy to imagine the high level of talismans he could create now.
If this were in the world of Tokyo Ravens, Rozen's talisman crafting skill alone would surpass all technical personnel. Just selling talismans would make him rich.
Therefore, for the current Rozen, just one Fire talisman could rival a professional exorcist specializing in the "Fire Realm Incantation."
Now, Rozen, as if throwing them away, turned these talismans into countless fire projectiles, bombarding the front.
In this situation, no one noticed that among the countless Fire talisman, there were quite a few protective talismans.
These talismans swept through the high sky, like deploying troops, one by one stopping around Daedalus, surrounding it.
"Clang!"
At a certain moment, these protective talismans all burst into bright light, turning into a barrier, covering Daedalus inside.
"————————."
Rozen formed hand seals, chanting the mantra of Ucchusma, capable of purifying tangible impurities.
Under the influence of this mantra, the barrier enveloping Daedalus was strengthened.
And not just strengthened.
Under such extreme reinforcement, something unbelievable happened.
"————"
The originally fluctuating space around Daedalus suddenly stagnated, without any distortion, returning to its original state.
Rozen had reinforced the barrier to the limit, completely stabilizing the space in the sealed area.
This wasn't something difficult to achieve.
"Originally, what we call a barrier possesses various effects."
Some barriers can stabilize spiritual veins.
Some barriers can defend against external enemies.
Some barriers can resist curses.
Some barriers can disperse crowds.
The barrier Rozen is currently using has the effect of enforcing spiritual energy. By strengthening it to the limit, even the most chaotic spiritual energy would return to a calm state.
Naturally, as mysteries of the same origin, under the influence of magic and spells in such a barrier, they would be suppressed, unable to cause any disturbance.
In other words...
"The development of this 'Anti-Magic Barrier' finally proved its worth."
Rozen smiled suddenly.
Immediately, Rozen's coat fluttered, propelling him at an astonishing speed toward Daedalus.
An entrance to the barrier sealing Daedalus opened, allowing Rozen to smoothly enter.
In this way, Rozen landed smoothly on the deck of Daedalus, boarding this land-based warship that couldn't be interfered with by external forces.
Just in that instant...
"Impressive."
A voice, seemingly helpless yet admiring, echoed.
"To be able to board Daedalus with your own power, no wonder Edward Rutherford regards you highly."
As the voice fell, a figure slowly appeared on the bridge.
It was Edmund.
