Chapter 350: The Iron Triangle Returns

“Wind King Warship!”

“The Wind King Warship is here!”

“The main cannon of a real ancient warship truly lives up to its reputation!”

The warriors, trapped in desperate straits, burst into thunderous cheers that shook their own warship.

Like a white swan, the Wind King Warship descended upon the battlefield at the critical moment, obliterating two Magic Griffin warships in one shot and flipping the battle situation instantly. To others, this seemed only natural.

Yet a flash of surprise crossed Midi’s eyes before fading.

He alone recognized that the towering glow hadn’t come from the Wind King Warship’s main cannon.

It carried an aura he knew well—one he hadn’t sensed in ages.

“Fina?” The name spilled from Midi’s lips, thick with longing.

“Long time no see, Midi.” The familiar, prideful voice crackled through the magical communications, its charm momentarily making him forget the battlefield. “Alice is with me. We’ll talk later—let’s end this battle first.”

End this battle?

Midi replayed Fina’s words in his heart. Countless thoughts swirled before finally settling as a faint smile.

In this life or the last, no matter the crisis, Fina remained unmistakably herself.

They hadn’t met in years, communicating only through letters. Yet here she was, instantly pinpointing their priority and charging forward.

Was this decisiveness queenly grace? Pure efficiency?

Midi didn’t know how to label it. He simply called it “Fina’s way.”

“Alright. Let’s end this.” Midi’s calm reply hid none of the warmth swelling beneath.

“How?” A clear voice like windchimes cut in.

Alice had spoken.

“Kill both temple heads.” No hesitation colored Midi’s answer.

The All-Seeing Demon’s Insight skill had limited his options. Now, pinned by the Leader’s relentless mind-related abilities, he could barely influence the fight.

But with the Queen of Magic Fina and Mist Sorceress Alice here? Everything changed.

Their presence unlocked countless brilliant tactical combos. Weak attacks became unstoppable strikes. The entire battlefield could flip in an instant.

Could they defeat two temple leaders? Midi never doubted it.

He’d tested the Mind Shield earrings forged from the Mind Maze heritage himself—their power justified costing nearly a fleet. And Fina’s Magic Beam just proved both women had more than enough firepower to wreck those warships.

Since that was the case, the only remaining task was to fully demonstrate the attack power of the Hawk Brigade’s Iron Triangle and end this brutal back-and-forth battle before the octopus-headed commanders could react.

This time, Midi could finally focus entirely on confronting the terrifying sect Leader without distractions.

"All units, coordinate attacks with the Wind King Warship. Full firepower, no reserves." Midi’s order echoed through the magical communications.

Reinhardt and Marcel, who were desperately holding against the sect fleet’s assault waves, couldn’t believe their ears. Full firepower now? This seemed like suicidal recklessness!

Even if the Wind King Warship’s strike destroyed two enemy ships and boosted morale, how could this gamble possibly change the tide? Both the skeptical Judge Marcel and loyal Reinhardt felt uneasy.

Before they could voice objections, the Wind King Warship attacked again.

A dazzling light sliced through the sky like divine judgment. Two more Magic Griffin warships erupted into fiery debris.

This time, observers clearly saw the attack originated not from the warship’s main cannon, but from a red-haired woman’s outstretched hand.

Her autumn-maple hair blazed under starlight, the gold-trimmed crimson uniform of the Hawk Brigade accentuating her Valkyrie-like presence on the windswept deck.

Excitement surged through veteran Hawk Brigade members. While newer recruits only knew the "Queen of Magic" and "Mist Sorceress" as old legends, those who’d followed Midi from Sky City to Star Ocean recognized Fina’s crimson hair like a battle standard.

Cheers redoubled as magic energy churned around Fina, forming a kilometers-wide vortex that condensed into a single glowing point in her palm. The third attack lanced skyward, obliterating two more warships.

Six Magic Griffin ships destroyed in three strikes – each more devastating than the Wind King’s main cannon. The tide was turning.

Simultaneously, crimson mist erupted from the Wind King Warship, streaking toward a Fury Cruiser carrying the Fourth Temple’s leader. Within the bloody haze raced a seven-meter red wolf, flaming pawprints marking its path.

Perched sideways on the beast rode a black-haired girl, her hair streaming like war banners. This was Alice Otolopas, Mist Sorceress and master of the red demon Rose Hound – a creature formerly too bloodthirsty to control.

Through Dragon’s Blood White Crystal Pool enhancements and her level 54 Extraordinary Awakening, Alice now commanded the Rose Hound absolutely. No longer limited to mist form like her Fog Demon "Feast of Night", the materialized hellbeast obeyed her every thought.

The Fourth Temple leader launched psychic explosions and sniper attacks through telepathy. His assaults dissipated harmlessly against azure light shimmering from Alice’s earring.

"Your turn ends. Mine begins."

At Alice’s cold declaration, the Rose Hound roared. Blood-mist engulfed the hundred-meter Fury Cruiser below, reducing it to a crimson-stained wreck.
