Elissa and Rome looked at the creature before them, their faces paling.

If saying it's a biological possibility isn't accurate, then it's a giant meatball about ten stories high, covered in eyes!

Life seems to be dormant, all the eyes on top are closed.

"Thomas the Doubtful (the seventh apostle), degraded form." Shuei looked at the monstrous creature before her, her expression unchanged.

The Enhancers were busy on the behemoth, extracting various tubes.

Hui turned back and looked at the saints and saintess behind him.

Thomas, one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus, is the seventh card in the Apostle deck. He is known as "doubting Thomas," a label that appears on his card. Even on the day of Jesus' resurrection, he remained skeptical and did not believe.

"Suyi Saintess, how did this card become like this!" Alice exclaimed.

"Hui took a deep breath and said, "As the Bishop's card, after the Bishop's deterioration, it also suspected the Bishop and was then buried under the diocesan ground for transformation."

"How is that possible!" exclaimed Alice.

If she hadn't been on the battlefield of the fighting domain, she might never have seen the dark side of the church.

"Nothing is impossible. The Land of the Rising Sun claims to be eternally bright, but at least here the holy light will never shine through." Xiu said calmly.

"Saint Huey, I accuse you. You defame the Heavenly Archbishop, you

"Alisa, this is the Bishop's domain card. Think about it carefully," Shui looked at the stunned girl in front of him, his tone seeming a little helpless: "This morning, the first message from the Bishop on the upper battlefield was that the magical storm had triggered a magical resonance, which was quite troublesome. He ordered me to unseal the [Corrupted Apostle] and attack the [Nation of Magic]."

Elisha took two steps back.

"This is not true."

"Alyssa, Cynthas has fallen. The wheels of war keep turning, you know we have no choice." Xiu shook her head, her expression filled with regret.

Elisha stepped back two paces, drawing a card that shimmered with purple light from the deck.

"No, definitely not in this way."

Before she could finish, suddenly, a silver sword pierced through Eliza's back, and her expression of disbelief froze on her face.

Fresh blood flowed down the specially designed bleeding groove of the silver blade, converging into a card, 【Holy Blood】!

"Luo Luo Mi Ni"

"You swore an oath, to dedicate yourself to the faith. I'm sorry, Elissa, but the time has come." Bald RoMi shook his head, his expression complex.

The holy maiden slowly fell, her eyes gradually losing their sparkle before slowly closing.

And the apostle below slowly opened one eye!

"Summoning requires a large amount of medium," Sui commanded, "and then some."

"We really are terrible," Rome muttered, glancing down at Alyssa lying on the ground.

The girl's blood is still slowly melting into the card.

"Don't think about it, Rory. The bishop has let the whole thing deteriorate. If we don't sacrifice her, she'll soon become that kind of thing too. Now that she has offered her holy blood, she died a righteous death." Xiu didn't even glance at Elissa, only focusing on the apostles below.

"What about us" Romy exclaimed suddenly.

Xiuyi was taken aback, then laughed, a very unnatural laugh.

Twelve days later, the east coast of 【Magic City】.

The piercing sound of sirens echoed throughout the city!

The real war has come.

The Tang sisters in the magic academy dormitory were feeling down lately, sleeping lightly and easily woken by the hooting of owls. Taking the letter, Tang Wuyue's pretty face paled.

"Sister, quickly, the enemy is coming."

When the sisters arrived at the port of London, it was already in utter chaos.

The Rising Sun Country, with nearly its entire military force deployed, had hundreds of warships on the surface of the sea.

Offensive magic cards flew from the fleet into the city as if they were worthless!

A purple card transformed into a fireball, trailing smoke as it crashed toward the 【Magic City】, but was blocked by the 【Magic Matrix】.

But still, stray magical flames fell, being blocked by [Water Sphere].

{Magic Matrix} is a super large defense card that can only block magic cards with star levels higher than a certain level.

Comrades! No matter where we come from in the Lionheart, no matter what we do, at this moment we should stand united!

The speaker on the watchtower, Tang Wuyao, was known to Brito.

Commander of the Ghost Fleet.

All the card masters in the city understand the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold". They have all started relying on the terrain and setting up defensive magic cards.

Nearly all the students and teachers who participated in the Academy Cup from Winter Lion are here, while the students of Heavenly Saint Empire have been placed under house arrest.

Tang Wuyao moved, launching her **Five Thunder Sword Formation** to cut down a missile. As light flashed, she suddenly saw countless black dots appearing in the sky.

【Holy Heavenly Horse Knights】!

Countless celestial steeds were summoned to the skies, forming battle formations.

Tang Wuyao roughly counted, there are more than 2000!

The steed neighs.

The knight at the head, gleaming silver from head to toe, pulled down his visor and charged with sword drawn.

First Squad Pegasus flew towards the city.

"Want to summon a flying card"

"I don't have that in my deck!"

Faced with the arrayed military cards, the card masters seemed a little flustered. After all, they were still students, and it wasn't an exaggeration to call them a motley crew.

At this moment, the tip of the towering Imperial Dharma Master Tower behind him suddenly glowed red.

Looking back, it was Miss Farna standing on the rooftop. Even with her wizard robe billowing in the wind, one couldn't miss the girl's graceful figure. She held cards in her hand, murmuring to herself.

"[Arcane Sentinel], Transformation Summon! [Arcane Watchtower]!"

In the city, the spider-like 【Arcane Sentinels】 moved to the front line, eight tentacles gripping the ground, raising their bodies and transforming into watchtowers!

Before the Storm of Arcane Power arrived, it bestowed a portion of the domain card's authority upon her only granddaughter. Now, Miss Farna is naturally to serve as the Heart Card Master on the [Imperial Mage Tower].

The

magical watchtowers burst forth with all manner of colors as the pegasus knights approached, weaving a net of light in the air.

The Pegasus knights crashed into the magic web, and for a moment, they were thrown about like rag dolls. They couldn't break through at all, and suffered heavy losses in an instant.

These "sentinels" are stationed to guard the Overlimit Card Master's domain. They're not joking around.

The Tang sisters were astonished, but their expressions quickly darkened. They remembered that not long ago, Lu Cheng had said he could use his lightning sword to weave an electric net to deal with the noble air force. Now, the person who said those words was gone.

The Imperial Fleet wanted to bombard the Watchtower, but the powerful magic was blocked one by one by the Matrix. The pegasus knights couldn't fly into the city for a while, it was really troublesome.

However, the Imperial Navy was also well-prepared.

Although Haiteng is dead, Haiteng's invention remains. The classic combination of 【Holy Water】 【Holy Fire】 can be attached to a magic shield and burned, quickly consuming the energy of the magical matrix.

The fleet drew closer, and the first batch of holy water was thrown.

But before the holy fire could be lit, the top of 【The Emperor’s Law Sage Tower】lit up again.

A multitude of mechanical contraptions were unleashed, {floating enchantment balloons}, rising from the rooftops. Holy water and holy fire were thrown onto these cheap balloons, yet not a single drop touched the {magic matrix}.

The Imperial fleet's ferocious attack seemed to hit cotton, causing no threat at all.

Seeing this scene, all the card masters in the city burst into cheers.

Even the mana on the mage tower eased slightly. With her control, she was incapable of manipulating her grandfather's domain, thankfully, these magical mechanical cards were capable of acting independently.

As it stands, the city's defenses are formidable. As long as the Imperial Mage Tower doesn't malfunction, we should be able to hold out for a while longer.

On the sea of the Land of Rising Sun, the Saint Maiden is still sailing hard.

Acting on the principle of exploiting others' waters while never touching his own, Lu Cheng hauled a fish from the waters of the "Land of the Rising Sun."

He frowned immediately, this card had been tainted by corrupted energy.

The fish I caught yesterday was still good, everyone ate a hotpot of fish last night, but today, how did it become like this.

Things don't look good.

This means that the entire sea area of the "Land of the Rising Sun" may have been polluted.

The domain of a superpowered card master being completely contaminated was something Lu Cheng couldn't imagine, nor had he ever heard of such a thing.

It seems that we've put everything on the line, pooling all the spectral fleet's resources to barely defeat [Sindragosa], but things don't seem to be getting any better.

It has been a full week since the Ice Dragon was destroyed.

He really wants to go to 【The Mage City】, after all, his plan may ultimately still need the support of their own card masters.

But the biggest problem is also the only one.

Although Lu had a wide range of interests, he was prone to seasickness and knew nothing about sailing or sea routes.

When we parted ways, I thought I could find it again, but now it seems difficult!

That's enough.

A new recharge is complete, let's float for now. The real business is to return to Heika and find Master Lu.

Although the card [Lu Ban] has a very low favorability rating with Lu Cheng, paid consultation is still possible. Lu Cheng will be discussing shipbuilding component advice with the master today, and besides, he needs to rely on Gongsun's power to quickly complete the card making process.

The eyes closed and opened.

In the bamboo grove.

Lu Da Shi is furiously hammering at something.

"Master, please take a look at these materials."

Lu Cheng took out 【Dragon Bone】 and 【Ice Dragon Core】 from his deck. The bone immediately piled up like a small mountain in Luban's courtyard.

And a fist-sized crystal nucleus floated in Lu Cheng's hand, radiating a chill.

"Well, the materials this time are passable." Luban glanced at the pile of bones and said.

"Uh, Master, I'd like to discuss something with you about the workshop."

"1,000 paper money! We'll bring people in, this time you design it yourself." Lu Ban didn't even lift his head.

Lu Cheng bargained for half a day, successfully lowering the price from 1000 paper money to 1200. After paying, he started customizing his card.

Then, blueprints appeared one by one.

This step, Lu Cheng was still quite familiar with.

"What ability do you desire" Lu Ban asked.

"Tough!" Lu Cheng replied without hesitation. "Master, my design is like this:"

Lu Cheng was modifying the blueprint, sketching out a skeletal armor prototype. Using a Dragon Core would be perfect for powering it. Sindragosa's defense was truly impressive. If not for losing her caster at the last moment, it's hard to say how things would have turned out.

That's the power of [Frost Armor]!

"Superficial!" Lu Ban shook his head, "Attack is the best defense, have you heard of that These materials should be used to build an ice-based magical tower!"

As expected of Gongshu's ancestor.

"But I'm really afraid of dying. I'm going to do something big." Lu Cheng said.

The core of the building ship is quite fragile. Without protection, it would be vulnerable just like last time, allowing someone to get close and breach its defenses, which would be very troublesome.

"Coward!" Luban rolled his eyes at Lu Cheng. "Fine, I'll follow your design. Just wait for your parts card!"

After customizing the 【Dragon Scale Armor】 and 【Dragon Bone】, Lu Chengma rushed to Youdu Mountain without stopping.

The sea fortress is responsible for defending the North Sea branch, but the Tiger Pass on land seems very thin. It must be strengthened defenses, after all, in Lu Cheng's plan, this place cannot be captured at least.

To reinforce the Tiger Pass, one relies on both the walls and biological barriers. So, both need to be strengthened.

First, let's start by refining [Black Iron Ore].

These ore from Youdu Mountain have very good quality, but the original ore was difficult to refine in the past.

That's because Lu Cheng's main body is too weak.

Now, it's different.

Using the Yin Fire Furnace Heart from 《Mirage》 is worth a try. Besides, 《Mirage》 needs to be fitted with parts anyway, and a legendary card furnace just sits there idle.

As for summoning the Mirage Tower and incurring such a heavy lifespan penalty, Lu Cheng decided to not dwell on it too much for now.

If this wave can't be improved, then it won't be viable in the plan at all.

But if one survives in the plan and successfully finds the Immortal Path, then perhaps they could understand something about the Rika and solve the issue of lifespan once and for all.y to cultivate the giant spectacle, [World Tree of Illumination].During the long honeymoon period of peace and shared development, the World Tree with its abundant branches and leaves extended to all...
