//The solution for that, Ein, is to produce superhuman characters.//
Bernard said, "OK, well, good morning, comrade. I am going outside to help in the defenses, so please excuse me."
Goujon left. He walked up the street, and levitated up and then stepped onto the wall.
"Good morning, Nikola."
"Good morning, Bernard. I hear you had a visitor?"
"Oh, yes. He seems to be an outsider, so I was extra polite to him."
"Hehe, he is probably some sort of spy. No matter, let them see what they can see. Why should we care if they get worried?"

Haraldur, having recovered control of his body's flight, easily dodges the laser shots. "So, we have the dream team back, brilliant. Why bon't you two actually go and fight some bad guys, I mean, that is the point, right? Oh, wait, I remember, you are fascists now."
Haraldur spotted the airships, and thought: OK, I have done some attacking, but defence of my comrades must come first. He dropped down right in the path of the airships: they would have to get past him before reaching Laus.
Nikola, we have airships coming towards you. Set your attacks to have affinity for floating objects large than a dinghy. Also set it to attract to the magic used, you know the sort I mean.
//The one remaining tower is unshielded, right?//
Haraldur spotted the one remaining tower, and there seemed to be someone in a high ranking uniform there. Hmmm...
Extending in his right hand a massive pair of bolas, with the balls made of iron and the size of wrecking balls. He spun them around him, and himself around them, and then made himself be still in relation to the ground, and left go. The massive bolas hit the tower on the bit which was the super strong chain, causing the ends with the metal balls to wrap around very fast, until both hit the same side of the tower, blowing out a whole level, causing the tower, with Vincent on it, to to fall, down onto an airship, along with the bolas, which killed a few mages, and made a hole in the deck, but caused no structural damage.
Around Haraldur, wind speed started to increase. Then, he started to spin himself, as a tornado surrounded him, but it was a tornado in reverse, it squashed things on the ground, and threw things in the air to the ground. Below him, the city walls began to collapse. He started to move towards the airships as the wind speed increased.

Salazar smiled to himself. Intelligence had been right, there had been a small uprising, and it has been put down.
Anyway, time to launch an attack of his own. Draven will not mind if he does not know, besides, it will be worth it just for mapping of the area. Peasants, even trained ones, are scum afterall.
He and his entourage flew back towards home, and preparation.

Tesla received Haraldur's message, and relayed it to his comrades. Then, including Bernard, they fired off yet more charged arcs.
20,000 shots from Laus, all hitting the airships due to attration. Despite the fact the first ones, by Tesla, destroyed utterly unshielded towers, most are not as powerful. They should be considered of equivalent destructive power as a grenade, so what effect 20,000/3 (approx.) would have on a heavily shielded airship will be an interesting thing to see how strong those things are.

//Where is Kahn?//
The serpent was going very fast now, and in the distance a lone mountain appeared on the horizon, surrounded on all sides by flood plain.
