Compared to before, Isaac has access to more missions, not only because the campaign has been upgraded and is more intense, but also because Isaac's authority has been increased.
However, although there are more missions now, the variety of missions is actually much less than before, because this is a floating sea where combat is the main theme, so the types of missions are naturally very limited.
Unlike before, there are not only tasks of guarding the town, but also tasks of pure production, so it is very safe.
Of course, while the risk level increases, the rewards are also exceptionally high. Combat missions in the floating sea not only yield more contribution points, but each mission also offers extremely generous rewards!
With just a quick glance, Isaac spotted many materials that could be used to build the floating city!
Moreover, many of them are core materials!
Of course, even though it is still a combat mission, the objective of the floating sea combat mission is different from the previous ones. The previous combat missions mainly had two objectives: one was to ambush the ambush personnel of the Mechanicus, and the other was the resource plundering plan that Isaac completed the most of.
The combat missions in the Floating Sea are different; here, it's all about killing!
Lock down an area, then kill all non-Flesh Cult members within that area!
The reason for such an extreme situation is mainly related to the unique nature of the floating sea.
The name "Floating Sea" has two origins. First, it is a sea in the sky. On the seabed, there is not solid land, but an empty sky. Below the sky are the endless sea and other ordinary oceans.
The ocean floating in the air is one of the origins of the name "floating sea".
The other one is related to the production of the floating sea.
As a creation of a great wizard, the Endless Sea contains countless treasures and wonders, among which the Floating Sea is one. It is a magical ocean that floats in the air, and even more magical is that it can give birth to islands that can float in the air, namely, floating islands!
Yes, the special resources produced by the floating sea are the floating islands, which are the key materials for building the powerful floating city!
Although floating islands are not an indispensable material for building floating cities, there is no doubt that having them would greatly reduce the cost and difficulty of building floating cities!
The fact that it produces floating islands is already a special resource that makes the floating sea very important. What's even more amazing is that it can be created quite quickly!
According to the research results of the sect's wizards, it can be basically determined that there are two ways in which the floating islands of the floating sea are formed. One is natural formation, which is to gather the magic power of the four elements and create an island from nothing. Although this method does not require any effort and it will condense on its own, the speed is very slow. Even with the magic power concentration of the endless sea, it would take at least ten years to form a floating island of the lowest standard.
Of course, this speed is actually quite high, enough to drive many wizarding organizations crazy.
Ten years is just a short time; for extraordinary individuals, it's only a blink of an eye.
But besides natural formation, there is an even faster way: to move ordinary islands to the floating sea and use the special magic of the floating sea to assimilate the ordinary islands and turn them into floating islands!
Compared to the former method of natural conception, the latter is far superior!
Not only is the time significantly reduced, but assimilating a floating island with even the lowest standard can be done in less than half a year!
Furthermore, these floating islands are no different from normal floating islands!
With such incredible properties, how could anyone not go crazy?
Fortunately, the Flesh and Blood Cult was the first to discover this sea area and occupied it early on. Other forces, although extremely coveting it, did not choose to join the fight because they were wary of the Flesh and Blood Cult's terrifying strength. Otherwise, the battle would be even more exciting and chaotic!
After all, the Endless Sea still holds many undiscovered treasures and wonders, so there's no need to focus too much energy on it—except for the Mechanicus…
They were already hostile to the Flesh Cult, and now they were even less likely to sit idly by while the Flesh Cult possessed such a treasure trove. Thus, a battle was about to break out and quickly became uncontrollable!
Before long, Isaac selected a suitable mission from the dense torrent of missions—to attack the A1976 breeding farm. The mission was simple: kill and destroy!
Slaughter all the wizards and creations of the Cult of Machines within the area, and destroy all the floating islands within the area that are being conceived or have been conceived but have not yet been taken away!
It's simple, crude, and requires no technical skill.
Moreover, if you have enough strength, the efficiency will be very high.
However, Isaac and Phoenix were not the only members carrying out this mission. The Floating Sea is different from other places. Here, Tier 3 is just the basic combat force. In slightly more important places, there are basically Tier 4 Miracle Wizards in charge, and there are even more than one!
Places like those that give birth to floating islands are naturally quite important, so Isaac and Phoenix are not the main force for killing on this trip; their main task is to cause destruction.
kill……
Naturally, this was handled by two other fourth-tier wizards.

I'm a bit tired from training today and really can't type anymore, so I need to take a break. Sorry.
Chapter 246 The Battle of the Floating Sea (Part 1)
However, there is one thing that is quite similar to other battlefields in the floating sea—all spatial teleportation abilities are disabled!
From tiny teleportations to massive dimensional shifts, everything is failing!
After all, both sides were wizards, and they were particularly wary of such matters.
However, the Flesh and Blood Cult has a greater advantage, because although they cannot move normally through dimensions, they can still forcibly tear open dimensional rifts and escape in a critical situation.
However, such a commotion would be too great, making it unsuitable for surprise attacks or direct combat. Furthermore, it would cause significant damage to the dimension, increasing the distance between the dimensional world and the real world. Therefore, for the wizards of the Flesh Cult, this would be a truly powerful move.
The same applies to Isaac. He doesn't care about the depletion of power in the dimensional world, and it doesn't matter if his origin is damaged as a result, since he can replenish it from the demons.
But the growing distance between him and the real world is a problem he can't help but worry about.
There's no way to fix this.
Of course, the cult might have the answer, after all, the cult's dimensional world is so powerful, but it goes without saying that it is an absolute secret, something that a mere high-level wizard like him could not possibly know.
Yes, a minor high wizard.
Normally speaking, a high-ranking wizard is definitely not weak. After all, even in this day and age, the title of demigod still lingers in some small places, but it depends on who you compare him to.
For the Flesh and Blood Cult, it's really not worth mentioning.
Not to mention, Isaac is a mad wizard. Even if he were a fourth or fifth-level wizard, let alone a high-level wizard, he might not know.
After all, bridging the gap between the dimensional world and the real world is something countless dimensional demons dream of.
Therefore, even high-level wizards need to travel by boat to the Floating Sea, just like ordinary people, although the boats might be a little more advanced.
Before long, Isaac led Phoenix to a solitary port, where five people were already waiting: two high wizards and three high knights.
Isaac ignored the three high knights and looked directly at the two high wizards, his eyes narrowing slightly. Sure enough, those who could participate in the floating sea battle were no ordinary people.
The high wizard on the left, dressed in a red wizard's robe, whose magic is as intense as a raging fire, is named Iskandar Mishu. He is a fire mage with multiple fire powers, among which the [Sunfire] is the most powerful and has extremely strong destructive power!
The one on the right wearing a white wizard's robe is a rare light magic user, and an extremely rare one at that. He is a light magic user who excels in combat. Generally speaking, light magic is mostly auxiliary magic and is not very strong in combat.
Of course, the main reason is that there are too few variations. Wizards do not lack powerful attack methods, so there are very few light magic users, mainly because they lack the ability to protect themselves.
Therefore, this is also the most special thing about this wizard named Miris.
Miris is different from ordinary legendary wizards. He has magical talent, and his magical talent is quite high. He initially followed the path of an arcane mage. However, he has an almost fanatical pursuit of light magic. But obviously, if he only learns light magic, his combat power will be weak, at least in the early stages.
At the same time, although he was a genius, given his limited perspective at the time, he was unsure whether light magic would become powerful in the end, or even whether he could make it to the end by relying solely on light magic.
So after two days of deliberation, Miris resolutely switched to becoming a legendary wizard, intending to use the [mysterious] attribute possessed by legendary wizards to give light magic more possibilities.
Perhaps it was his own exceptional talent, or perhaps the combination was truly powerful; in any case, he progressed smoothly on the path to becoming a legendary wizard, and after advancing to the rank of high wizard, he also mastered an extremely powerful ability—[Light]!
The words are few, but powerful, especially when combined with the legendary wizard's [mysterious] attribute, making her even more unfathomable. The current Miris can attack, defend, dodge, escape, and heal...
He is very comprehensive and has quite a reputation among the high wizards of the Flesh and Blood Cult.
While Isaac was sizing them up, the two opposite him were having the same reaction; they had long been paying attention to this rising star of the sect…
Well, it wasn't that long ago, just over a year ago...
Because Isaac has only been a wizard for a few years, his advancement speed is like he's been cheating, skyrocketing all the way!
Of course, they understood. He was a mad witch, the oldest and most insane one at that. Strictly speaking, his speed was slow even among those old mad witches.
Although their time together was short, it did not affect their understanding of Isaac's situation. As early as when he had just advanced to the second rank, he was able to kill a high-ranking knight. When he had just advanced to the high-ranking wizard, he was able to suppress high-ranking wizards of the same rank and even easily kill them. Such a fierce record made even them feel ashamed.
They asked themselves if they could do the same amount of work in the same amount of time.
As they approached, the group greeted each other and then stood quietly to the side. Although the three of them were among the top in the third tier and were the main force or even the last force in other battlefields of the Endless Sea.
But in the floating sea...
It's clearly still far from good enough.
Here, only those at the fourth rank have a certain degree of influence and are the leaders of this mission.
"Hey~"
Fortunately, Isaac and the others didn't have to wait long. After all, wizards value efficiency. In just a minute or two, two figures, one in black robes and one in green robes, flew down from the sky and landed steadily in front of them. Their deep eyes swept over Isaac and the others, and after lingering on Isaac for a moment, they nodded slightly. Then, the black-robed wizard gently waved his right hand.
Above the harbor, ripples slowly spread through the space, and a ship emerged from them before plunging into the sea with a "plop."
However, after the ship appeared, Isaac and the others did not get on board, but stood still.
As the ship appeared, several wisps of black mist emerged from the black-robed wizard. After swirling in the air for a while, they landed on the ship, transforming into the likenesses of Isaac and the others, and then steered the ship away from the port.
“Let’s go, let’s set off too.” Seeing the ship begin to move, the black-robed wizard nodded, and a magic carpet flew out from his robes, floating quietly on the ground. The black-robed wizard and the green-robed wizard stepped onto it one after the other.
Isaac and the others followed.
This is their real mode of transportation.
It is also the most common method of floating on the sea, with one in the open and one in the shadows, working together, which greatly improves safety.
Most importantly, it can greatly reduce the risks posed by traitors.
Whether to travel by sea ship or magic carpet depends entirely on the fourth-tier wizard's decision before departure.
Chapter 247 The Battle of the Floating Sea (Part Two)
The right to decide the mode of travel before departure is reserved for fourth-tier wizards, not even for high-tier wizards. In other words, in the Floating Sea, only fourth-tier wizards are qualified to lead a team.
On the one hand, fourth-tier wizards are powerful enough to be an important fighting force in the floating sea, while third-tier high-level wizards are somewhat ordinary here. On the other hand, it is because once you reach the fourth-tier wizard stage, there are basically no more undercover agents.
In any faction, fourth-tier beings are a significant force, especially fourth-tier wizards.
He would definitely be a high-ranking member on any side. Only a fool would go undercover. No force would dare to take such a gamble. Of course, if you really do take such a gamble and that fourth-tier expert passes the test, then they will suffer the loss!
Getting back to the main point, Isaac and his companions rode on the magic carpet, silently following behind the ship, checking the mission information without uttering a word.
Self introduction?
There's no need. The two fourth-tier wizards have all the information about them, at least the information that's publicly available. Isaac and the others don't need to know the information about the fourth-tier wizards.
Unlike fourth-tier wizards, who are almost never spies, high-level wizards are still susceptible to being turned, and the possibility is quite high.
Therefore, information about fourth-tier wizards will not be given to Isaac and his group, and they may not even be given their names.
