Chapter 564 Against a Flying Airship
As soon as the Wind Elementalist realized that he had been caught by the enemy, his first reaction was to try and move away.
Since he didn't excel in close combat, he knew he would get killed at this rate. Even a Fourth-Class Aura Master could easily subdue him if he allowed himself to get pounced on.
"Get off me!" He roared. He had to get his distance if he wanted to even have a chance to win.
However, as he tried to forcefully remove the hands grabbing him by using his cane's Slime Ability, he realized that his Artifact could not be activated!
"Anti-Magic?!" He said in shock as he realized that his Float Spell had also been canceled.
He also found out that he could only remain floating, thanks to the man holding him up.
However, he knew that Anti-Magic items couldn't just affect a single target.
In this case, the man grabbing him should also be affected! It doesn't add up at all.
"What are you--" He wanted to threaten the masked man who had grabbed his head, but he immediately felt something off.
His energy, his life, and his strength started leaving him!
What was even more insane was how he felt some of his Spell Models disappearing!
"You! Stop it!" He was furious and wanted to curse, but he didn't have enough energy.
Soon, he heard his men calling for him.
"Let go of Sir Silas!"
"Sir Silas! We're coming!"
"Capture the masked man!"
They all shouted and cast a few targeted spells. However, they didn't dare cast a strong spell as it might affect their Superior, who was being held hostage.
"Let go of him, and we won't be chasing your subordinates!" They shouted.

On the other hand, the Masked Man didn't seem to have heard their words as he continued with what he was doing.

"Oh… It's not that bad…" Clovis muttered as he confirmed once again that Extracting with the help of his Divinity could produce a better result.
He had actually obtained three new Spell Models from this middle-aged man. It was a feat he could rarely accomplish.
Then, after confirming that the man was wasted and could no longer give any decent extraction results, he threw him to the ground, which made the enemies fumble as they hurriedly tried to catch their barely breathing superior.
As soon as they caught him, they immediately realized how gravely "injured" he was and shouted in horror.
"The masked man was a Vampire?! No, he's definitely using a Forbidden Art that consumes the life force of his target!"
"We need to kill him!"
"He must be one of those Dark Magicians! Capture him!"
Clovis heard their shouts but remained composed and looked up in the sky.
The three combat airships weren't making their moves yet. They weren't sending people as well, so he knew that he had plenty of time.
"Since they're not coming down to save you… Then they must've given up and allowed all of you to perish." Clovis muttered as he observed the 12 Arcanists who had stayed in the area.
As for the others, they were chasing the Arcanists Squads from Kirkham City, believing that they had the strength to subdue them.
"Hmph! Come down here if you're scared!" One of the Arcanists taunted as he drew a weapon. It was a whip that was emitting a fiery energy.
"Alright, I'm coming down…" Clovis said as he started to activate the power of the Devil's Face Mask.

In the meantime, while Clovis had disguised himself as the Masked Devil Incarnate and started fighting the enemies, Pearl also decided to make her move.
Just a few moments before the battle started, she heard Clovis' telepathy, asking her to help Denise escape safely.
She certainly didn't mind doing that since she believed that it was an easy thing to do.
"She already has a Dark Spirit on her side. I'm sure she'll be fine..." Pearl muttered as she hurriedly followed Denise's footsteps.
"Found her…" She muttered after confirming Denise's movement.
As a Dark Alchemist, Denise doesn't have good mobility. This was why she was at the center of the Torrent Squad, the safest position in their formation.
She was protected by her squad and was moving steadily to the depths of the forest. They weren't heading to the nearest town since another squad had decided to take that path.
Apparently, the four squads had moved in separate ways to ensure that the enemy forces would also be divided. Furthermore, they would be able to counterattack if they confirmed that the number of people chasing them had dwindled.
It was a decent strategy they had devised in such a short period of time.
In any case, they were also itching for a battle after escaping from the Vampire's Castle, so they also wanted to release their energy.
"Ahhh... This is not good." Pearl suddenly muttered as she realized that one of the Airships was actually aiming at the Torrent Squad!
The Airships seemed to be capable of navigating through the darkness and could sense the movement of the Arcanists!
'Not good…'
Pearl realized that the Airship's cannon had started aiming at the Torrent Squad's path, and Leonel and the others weren't aware of it!
It must be because their Magic Zone couldn't reach the Airship above them!
Without any more hesitation, Pearl activated one of her high-level Elemental Spells.
"Storm Surge!"
