Chapter 754: Aerial Combat
Kashin had just gotten more than 20 meters off the ground when the scroll of engraved magic above him came crashing down like a giant meteorite.
In fact, according to their previous deployment, this place had already been surrounded. The reason why they had not taken action was simply because they were afraid of Kashin's amazing archery skills, so they decided to wait until after dark.
At this critical moment, Xiaosha suddenly let out a scream, and then he used a circling move and flew out of the coverage of the spell as fast as lightning.
However, right behind it, the huge meteorite as big as a hill, the blazing flames and the overwhelming hail seemed extremely terrifying. These powerful attack forces instantly knocked down a large number of cattle and sheep of the herdsmen.
Seeing that his arrows could not reach the enemy, Kashin decisively ordered Xiaosha to flee to the south. He knew very well that it was not a wise move to fight the enemy head-on at this time. After all, they were outnumbered and would be the one who would suffer in the end.
And below, Her Royal Highness the Princess was leading a group of royal hunters. They all crawled on the ground, watching Kashin soar into the sky like a flash of lightning, successfully avoiding the coverage of two rounds of spells.
The princess gnashed her teeth in anger. She pulled up the weeds in front of her and said bitterly, "Damn it! We were so far away, but he still found us! This man's perception ability is beyond imagination! We really failed this time!
But it doesn’t matter, let’s just wait for news here. I don’t believe that no matter how cunning a fox is, it will definitely not escape the hunter’s pursuit... His luck can’t always be so good. Next time we must be more careful and stay away. This guy is really a tricky enemy..."
Kashin held the baton tightly in his hand and observed the magic attacks around him intently. He flexibly directed Xiaosha to dodge every attack of magic skillfully while constantly increasing the flight altitude.
All this requires him to accurately predict the enemy's magic attacks. Kashen wears heavy anti-magic armor, which allows him to resist ordinary magic attacks, so he is confident in his safety and has no fear.
As the altitude gradually increased, Kashin's heartbeat became faster and faster. When he was about 300 meters in the air, he didn't even dare to look down, for fear that he would feel dizzy due to the altitude.
However, at this height, Kashin fired the first armor-piercing spike without hesitation. This upward-shot arrow was like lightning, darting through the belly of the warhawk and accurately hitting the opponent's falconer. In an instant, the armor-piercing spike pierced the falconer's body, killing him on the spot.
This attack was a great success in the first air battle, and Kashin used this kill as a sacrifice for his own battle.
After some difficult maneuvers and dodging, Kashin finally succeeded in rising to a height of 500 meters, basically in the same airspace as the opponent's falconer.
At this time, the armor-piercing cone in Kashin's hand had a range of 300 meters, and its terrifying deterrent power of almost hitting the target every time had already posed a huge threat to the falconer. However, factors such as the gliding speed of the war eagle and wind force would affect the accuracy of the shooting, but Kashin did not seem to be affected by these.
This was all thanks to his hard training and solid basic skills. Even when he was meditating, he would constantly simulate archery in his mind, so his archery skills had reached a certain level, and he could be successful no matter what situation he faced.
After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, the situation on the battlefield remained deadlocked. In this tense atmosphere, only a knight riding a top-quality war eagle showed extraordinary strength and determination.
The flying speed of this war eagle was extremely fast, far exceeding the war eagle ridden by Xiaosha. It flew freely in the sky like a flash of lightning. However, despite the amazing speed of this war eagle, its owner was not in a hurry to attack Kashin directly, but adopted a guerrilla tactic.
The knight was obviously afraid of Kashin's archery skills. He knew very well that if he was hit by Kashin's arrow, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, he cleverly used the maneuverability of the war eagle, constantly keeping a certain distance from Kashin, sometimes circling, sometimes diving, trying to lure Kashin into shooting.
However, Kashin was not an opponent who was easily fooled. He saw through the opponent's intention at a glance and remained as steady as a rock, not moved at all.
No matter how the opponent accelerated or changed its flight trajectory, Kashin could accurately judge the opponent's true purpose and would not be fooled at all.
Under such circumstances, the two sides fell into a stalemate. The other warhawks watched from a distance in the rear, not daring to approach easily, for fear of being involved in this fierce air battle.
Obviously, Kashin's tactics had been thoroughly studied by the enemy. They knew that only by ensuring their own safety could they have a chance to attack.
However, what they never expected was that the enemy could control the war eagle so skillfully that they could engage in a thrilling battle with them in the air and not be at a disadvantage at all.
You know, they need at least two years of hard training to master the flying skills of the war eagles. Now, the enemy has demonstrated such superb air combat capabilities in a short period of time, which undoubtedly brings them great pressure and challenges.
The development of this air battle was completely beyond their imagination, and the situation became extremely difficult. Both sides were wary of each other, especially the sharp arrow in Kashin's hand, which made them dare not be careless at all.
"Little fool, can you take off again?"
The Warhawk took off decisively without responding. Kashin took out the Supreme Edition pocket watch and turned on the rangefinder function to make sure he had an idea of the altitude. The pocket watch soon showed more than 400 meters!
The local area relied on its top-quality pet to climb too high. Kashin took the opportunity to instantly condense a telekinetic arrow on his forehead and controlled it to shoot at the enemy. It did not wake up from its dream until the telekinetic arrow fell from the sky and appeared in front of the opponent.
The telekinetic arrow instantly pierced his skull. At this moment of climbing, the magician couldn't even open his eyes. He was hit. However, the war eagle was slow, and the telekinetic arrow was dead.
Killing him was secondary. There were clouds above at the moment, and Kashin's fight with the enemy was just to conceal his own intentions. This time he climbed up, he wanted to enter the clouds to cover his return and deal with other falconers.
The principle is the same as jungle warfare, emphasizing concealment. At this moment, the animal trainers witnessed the tragic death of their teammates and were extremely anxious, and Kashin suddenly disappeared.
Half of them climbed up to search for the enemy, while two went to rescue their teammates from falling. They had not expected an air battle to occur during this roundup of the prisoners, and they only needed air support, and they had never expected that there would be heavy casualties.
While sighing, some falconers planned to fight to the death regardless of the danger. Being timid would only lead to defeating the enemies one by one. They could not take care of the super long-range archery and the terrifying armor-piercing cones this time. They should stop being timid, otherwise everyone would die.
