The more Grim thought about it, the angrier he got.
But he had never lowered his head to reflect on it. If he had not pressured Fred so much, how could he have shown such a trump card?
Fred himself was only at the mid-tier of grade 4, and as his lifespan approached its end, his strength was declining instead of rising. He was already showing signs of weakening. Moreover, forcefully fusing with Fort Kothrin was not without a price. The price was so great that even Fred had to think about it carefully.
After Fort Kothrin was activated, its power source was provided by a source of mana somewhere underground. It could not leave the area within five miles of the ley line node. Moreover, every time Fred forcefully fused with Fort Kothrin, he had to pay the price of a hundred years of his life.
To be honest, Fred could not afford to pay such a price!
He was now seven or eight hundred years old, and he had less than two hundred years left to live. If he were to waste another hundred years, it would mean that his life would soon come to an end.
It was because of these concerns that Fred did not dare to try this method of pushing his strength to the pinnacle of grade 4, even though he had researched this method.
Even if the Crimson Fleet had reached the origin of the Entom Family, Fred still hoped that he could use the activated castle to repel the enemy instead of forcefully fusing with Fort Kothrin. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he really did not want to use such a decisive move.
As if noticing Fred's embarrassment, Grim's hand glowed with a red light. His lips moved slightly as he silently sent out a few words.
Soon, the magic puppets beneath the Crimson Fleet sped up and overtook the Magic Mechanical Legion, striding toward Fort Kothrin that had transformed into a giant life form.
And it was not the only grade 4 creature that had entered the battlefield.
In the sky, a loud and clear dragon roar resounded.
At the edge of a floating warship, the smooth and perfect body of the grade 4 Lightning Lord Armes appeared. It opened its mouth and let out a dragon roar, spreading its majestic draconic aura across the sky and earth. Then, it flapped its wings and dove down from the warship.
A grade 4 Magical Machine of War and a grade 4 Dragon Lord …
In the towering Fort Kothrin, the old, stooped Fred was sitting on a tall stone chair, his hands caressing the strange crystals embedded in the armrests to control this humongous lifeform.
Seeing a powerful opponent coming from the ground and a powerful opponent diving down from the sky, Fred's face slowly turned pale. He lowered his head to look at the rune crystal hanging in front of his chest. He clenched his teeth for a long time, unable to make up his mind.
In the end, he gave up on the urge to fuse. He grabbed the two central control crystals and began to fight back fiercely.
At this time, Fort Kothrin was like a huge beast. With a roar, its two thick stone legs suddenly stopped, and rows of thick stone pillars rose in the path of the Golem Dragon, temporarily blocking it.
Seizing the opportunity, it focused all its attention on the Tier 4 Dragon that was diving at high speed.
After being activated, Keslin Castle was over a thousand meters in size. Meanwhile, the Tier 4 Thunder Lord, Armes, was only thirty-five meters long when fully extended. However, Fred was on full alert, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
The reason was none other than his strength!
After being activated, Keslin Castle was extremely huge, and its strength was astonishing. Such a colossus was naturally as unstoppable as a Heavenly God against low-grade creatures, crushing them like rotten twigs. However, once it faced a powerful opponent of the same level, it would be unable to move, and the opponent would find an opening to attack.
Keslin Castle was powerful, but it was useless if it could not hit the enemy!
Under Fred's control, the Woodmen of Fort Kerslin stood up like a ferocious giant beast. Their two thick legs were like inverted mountain peaks as they swept across fiercely. Although its movements were slow and sluggish, its huge body and violent strength caused its every move to be accompanied by an irresistible wild hurricane.
Ordinary magical creatures would be crushed instantly if they were swept by the edge of the violent hurricane, let alone being hit by the giant legs.
At this time, the terrifying power of the Tier 4 Dragon, a top predator, was reflected!
The Tier 4 Thunder Lord, Armes, was like a bolt of blue lightning, weaving between the two mountains. The violent lightning around its body transformed into dancing silver snakes, jumping and exploding between the mountains.
Every time it exploded with power, tons of gravel would fall from the stone pillars.
The entire upper body of the ferocious behemoth was covered in a rain of rocks that never stopped falling.
One was a thousand-meter-tall ferocious beast, while the other was a thirty-five-meter-long Blue Dragon. From afar, it looked like a mastiff chasing after a dragonfly. Although the ferocious behemoth had the absolute advantage in all aspects, after a round of battle, Keslin Castle, which had the advantage in size, was at a disadvantage.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the Tier 4 Thunder Lord, Armes, focused his attacks on Keslin Castle, where the ferocious behemoth's head was. Unfortunately, Keslin Castle's defenses were tight, and its two thick front limbs kept chasing after Armes. Many times, Armes would rather use its giant claws to block the Thunder Dragon's attacks than let a single strand of lightning fall on Keslin Castle.
Just like that, the two sides fought fiercely.
The Dragon's Breath was fast and concentrated, and its power was above average even among most Tier 4 magical creatures.
The rank 4 Thunder Dragon circled around the surface of its body, bathing it with its terrifying lightning dragon breath. Even the iron rock that Kothrin Castle had condensed turned red under the bombardment of extreme power, heated up, and then softened into flowing lava, peeling off the huge body of Kothrin Castle.
With just one long and fierce Dragon's Breath, Keslin Castle had been successfully slimmed down by the enemy. Although the thousand-meter-tall body had lost a small part of its size, it was still painful for Fred, who controlled Keslin Castle.
Therefore, the ferocious behemoth pounced and bit even more violently!
However, at that moment, the Puppet Dragon had already smashed through more than ten stone pillars blocking its way, and rushed to the edge of the battlefield. The two terrifying magic cannons on its back fired continuously, and scorching red fireballs bombarded the ferocious behemoth's body, exploding into a large number of fireworks.
Tons of gravel and rocks poured down like a mudslide, and the terrifying scene made one's heart tremble.
Faced with a pincer attack, the ferocious behemoth turned its body, giving up on the Dragon, and suddenly pounced towards the Puppet Dragon. The Puppet Dragon, which was charging forward with an indomitable will, was also taken aback. It retreated without a fight, and as it ran away, it baptized its opponent's body with concentrated cannon fire.
The huge ferocious behemoth only chased for a short distance before it stopped, and then turned around and pounced back, as if it did not dare to leave the giant pit it crawled out of.
Seeing this, the Crimson Family Mages naturally guessed that the giant pit must be hiding a secret that the other party did not want people to know about. Therefore, many Floating Ships began to move forward slowly, and used the magic cannons to join in the siege of Keslin Castle.
Beams of powerful light imbued with terrifying energy, Magic Bullets that whistled as they pounced, and Rapid Sorcery that shone like fireworks … Almost in an instant, the ferocious behemoth's huge stone body was drowned in it.
Inside the ferocious behemoth's raised head, the Mages of the Entom Family hiding in Keslin Castle gritted their teeth and fought back bravely with sorcery.
The brilliant and ferocious sorcery intertwined in the air, exchanging terrible damage with each other.
In such a terrifying battlefield, the low-level Mages could not intervene at all, and could only be squeezed tens of miles away, fighting with the Magic Legion. Only those with strong defensive shields or high-level strength had the right to step into the main battlefield, and join in the siege of the fallen enemy.
In an instant, the whole battlefield was filled with flames, and roars were heard. Terrifying shockwaves formed from the explosion of elemental sorcery were everywhere.
After struggling for half an hour, they were played around by the enemies, and did not even get a decent loot. Fred, who was controlling Keslin Castle, was furious. Looking at the ferocious enemies, his heart was filled with hatred, and he finally made a decision.
He stabbed his left hand into his chest, and yelled as he opened a big wound, but strangely, no blood gushed out from the wound.
Fred gritted his teeth, grabbed the rune crystal, and stabbed it into his heart.
"Forbidden Spell, Life Combination …"
As Fred screamed the spell, the magic runes and lines on the rune crystal that was inserted into his heart lit up one after another, outlining an unusually complicated and mysterious Sorcery Formation.
The moment the Sorcery Formation completely lit up, Fred trembled violently, and his entire body and face aged at a speed visible to the naked eye. His exposed skin was instantly covered with wrinkles and huge molds, and it was as dry as a tree branch in winter.
However, under the communication of the strange rune crystal, there was no longer any obstruction between him and the mountainous Keslin Castle. Their consciousness and aura blended with each other, and there was no longer any distinction between them.
Suddenly, Kothrinburg froze.
The ferocious giant beast protected Keslin Castle under its arms, silently enduring the torrential baptism of the Violent Dragon's Breath, Giant Magic Cannons, and Rapid Fire Cannons without moving.
Tons of broken rocks peeled off and collapsed, piling up into a rising hill under the ferocious giant beast's body.
Keslin Castle seemed to have come to life again, and it slowly sank into the ferocious giant beast's stone body, disappearing without a trace.
The next moment, the ferocious giant beast suddenly resurrected!
It stood up abruptly, and turned into a towering human form.
The rocks covering its body were constantly breaking and wriggling, piecing together and condensing together, gradually outlining a humanoid head, body, and limbs. And as these rocks were constantly waved and twisted, its movements were jerky and clumsy at first, then became more and more skillful and swift.
And the powerful aura that rose from its body was even more violent, thick, and heavy, making it difficult for people to think of fighting against it.
Peak of grade 4!
