Annemdor Academy.
Inside a dark and dim witchcraft room.
Mirva, who had not shown himself for a long time, was talking to someone through a magic mirror.
As the only source of light in the secret room, the magic mirror emitted a gloomy green light. Not only did it not illuminate the space, but it also filled the place with a gloomy atmosphere.
The magic mirror was divided into several images, each of which had a strange figure. If one zoomed in, they would be surprised to find that the figures in the images were all famous grade 4 wizards of the Tower Forest.
Every single one of these reputable and honorable fellows was a major figure that could shake the Central Continent with a stomp of their feet. However, at this moment, they were like a group of rats hiding in the sewers, panicking and feeling very upset.
At this moment, in a corner of the magic mirror, Matthew, who had sparse hair and swollen eyes, asked in a low voice, "Has this news been verified? Don't tell me it's fake news and wants us to fight amongst ourselves … "
On the other side of the mirror, Nicholas, who had a gloomy expression and a cold glint in his triangular eyes, said in a low voice, "I just sent Declan away … He's here to persuade me to surrender!"
Hearing this name, the Magi in the water mirror couldn't help but curse.
"Declan, this bastard really has no balls …"
"Hmph, he must be under Grimm's control, that's why he said that …"
"Don't take his words seriously!"
… …
In the secret room, Mirva said in a bitter voice, "The one who came to find me is Alfred!"
The people in the water mirror fell silent and turned their gazes to Mirva.
"What did Alfred say?"
"Alfred and you have a good personal relationship. Did he say the same thing?"
Hearing the questions, Mirva's expression became even more bitter.
"This is no longer a rumor, it's the truth! It's said that Clara, Declan, and Alfred were not the only ones who experienced Mary's Nightmare Weave. Tatas and the other two councilors of the Alliance were also there … "
"How powerful is it?"
Mirva took a deep breath and said, "It's enough to fight against super powerful beings, let alone normal wizards like us!"
The secret room suddenly became silent.
Everyone lost interest in talking, and the atmosphere became abnormally oppressive.
After a while, Wizard Nicholas finally opened his mouth and asked Mirva, "Mirva, what do you think we should do next? Fred … has been killed, we … we … "
Everyone in the water mirror looked sympathetically at Nicholas.
It couldn't be helped. Apart from the Randner Family, Nicholas' territory was the closest to the Crimson Family's Elovis region. If Grim wasn't willing to give up, his next target would be either Vice President Mirva or Nicholas who was close to the tiger's den.
Thus, compared to everyone else, their doom was even more direct and urgent!
Although Nicholas's question was vague, everyone understood what he meant.
In truth, everyone wanted to know what Vice President Mirva, the only person capable of leading them after Guild Leader Fred's demise, would do. Fight or surrender?
If everyone was determined to fight to the death with the Crimson Family, it would be extremely difficult for Grim to unify the central continent. Don't forget, there was another famous name in the central continent, "Scattered Forest of Pagodas"!
Scattered Forest of Pagodas … This directly pointed out the unique distribution of families in the central continent.
The areas were scattered, and the Wizard's Pagodas stood in great numbers.
There were many Wizard Families in the central continent, and it was normal for them to rise and fall.
Whenever a Wizard War broke out, no one would care about the change of territory. The Wizards only cared about the control of the Wizard's Pagoda.
Some small Wizard Families were weak, but if they were invaded by other large factions, they only needed to gather their core members to defend the Wizard's Tower, and they would be able to defend against the attacks of enemies several times their size.
If they could not take down the Wizard's Tower, it would be useless no matter how many territories they occupied.
They could not keep attacking the Wizard's Pagoda forever. Once the army retreated, the power of the Wizard's Pagoda would radiate out again, and the land and people that were taken away would return to the original owner. They would only lose some resources!
Thus, in the central continent, it was extremely difficult to truly and completely destroy a Wizard Family. Without the courage to bite off all their teeth, there was no way they could take down the Wizard's Pagoda one by one.
Even though the Crimson Fleet led by Grim had displayed the ability to take down the Wizard's Tower in Freid's territory, they had also revealed some shortcomings.
If they wanted to take down a Wizard's Pagoda, they would definitely need high-level Wizards, as well as massive weapons of war like Floating Battleships or Magical Puppet Dragons. Even if they had all these things, the price they would have to pay would be staggering!
Thus, if the many level 4 Wizards present decided to fight to the death with the Crimson Family, even if they were to retreat and defend, it would give Grim a splitting headache.
The Crimson Fleet under Grim was indeed terrifying, but there were only three level 4 Wizards in the family who could hold the fort: Grim, Mary, and Armes.
They could not possibly charge at the front and personally lead the fleet to take down the Wizard's Pagoda one by one, could they? If they were not there, just the Crimson Fleet alone could be defeated by any level 4 Wizard present, forcing them to flee pathetically.
When that time came, the time it would take for the Crimson Family to unify the central continent would be extended indefinitely.
This way, the group would have the confidence to wait for an opportunity to turn the situation around!
They did not believe that the three great Wizard Organizations would sit back and watch as Grim ravenously devoured the central continent, taking a huge piece of meat that he had been drooling over for a long time.
One of the most fundamental reasons why the situation was so calm was that the Crimson Family had erupted too fiercely, to the point that the three great Wizard Organizations had yet to react.
There had been many Wizard Wars in the central continent in the past, but most of them were long and boring. Traversing a wide area to directly attack the nest of the other party, ending a Wizard War with a single arrow through the heart …
To be honest, a Wizard War like this had never happened before!
Thus, the three great Wizard Organizations did not expect the situation to develop so quickly after the conflict within the scattered Forest of Pagodas erupted. As a result, the situation had gotten out of everyone's control right from the start.
What decided the outcome of a Magus war was not the large number of low-ranked Magi, but the few high-ranked Magi who were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns!
At the start of the war, the three great Wizard Organizations could send powerful fighters to observe the battle, waiting for an opportunity to intervene and change the outcome of the war. This arrangement was enough, or at least they thought it was enough.
After all, Grim had appeared at the Wizard Association the last time. Even though the power he displayed was very strong, it was only comparable to killing a Witch. He was still a long way from becoming a powerful fighter.
However, what surprised them was that the Legendary Fire Wizard had improved again in just a few years. Not only had he defeated the Golden Titan Monash, but he had also heavily injured the Curse Wizard Sevorius in a 'fair fight'.
This … was clearly out of the Wizard Association's expectations!
Since Sevorius was defeated by the Legendary Fire Warlock Grimm, they could only send more powerful beings to deal with him. However, these fellows were either roaming the depths of the Endless Sea of Stars or doing some extremely important magic experiments in seclusion …
Even though the Wizard Association wanted to mobilize them, even if these powerful fighters were willing to give up their current missions and benefits and return, the time and price they had to pay to return from the depths of the Endless Sea of Stars was abnormally huge!
If they could not mobilize the powerful fighters, then they would mobilize the army …
However, the dangerous and vast Dark Forest itself was a natural obstacle. It might not be a problem for the Sorcerer Association to use a small teleportation circle to send a few powerhouses over, but it would be impossible for them to send an entire army of sorcerers over.
Using the floating airship as a transit?
Even if they mobilized the troops and arranged the logistics properly, it would take at least two months for this to take shape! With the Crimson Fleet's current attack speed, two months would be enough to get rid of most of the diehard members and stabilize the situation in the central continent.
When that time came, what would the Association's army do?
Moreover, if they mobilized a large number of the Association's troops, how would the Northern Witches and the Silver Alliance react? With the three forces tangling with each other, just expressing their attitudes and coordinating their stances would probably take up a lot of time.
By the time they came to a conclusion, the central continent would have already become the Crimson Fleet's world!
In short, the Crimson Family's hidden strength was too great, so great that once it exploded, even the three great Magus organisations would not be able to react in time.
However, the three great Magus organisations were more concerned about what they could gain from this internal strife in the Scattered Tower Forest. In front of the few Grade 4 Magi of the central continent was a choice between life and death!
Their eyes flickered, and their expressions were vicious, but they were also filled with grief, anger, and distress.
Once upon a time, they were peerless fiends of the central continent who could cause the heavens and earth to tremble with a stomp of their feet. However, when they met an even more unreasonable and tyrannical god of death than they were, apart from grief and anger, there was no other way for them to vent their frustrations.
Depressed … Yes, all of them were extremely depressed!
To put it bluntly, Grim being able to become a Grade 4 Magus at such a young age was all thanks to the combined efforts of everyone present. However, they had been forced into a corner by a junior, and they might even have to bow to him in the future …
