"The demonic wave is coming!"
Grim said calmly. Everyone in the meeting was speechless.
None of the people who could sit in this spacious Sorcerer Hall were good people. Fifteen Tier 4 Sorcerers sat around a long obsidian conference table, representing almost all the major organizations in the central continent.
Behind each of them stood two or three juniors or trusted subordinates of their respective clans.
Monash?
Golden Clan
Denel Family
Molten City
Fabrice Family
Annemudo Academy
Entome Family
Bane Family
Arden Family
Ashton Family
Smiley Family
Arisa Family
Munzo Family
Adria Family
Claire Family
Mira Family
Kunis Family
Roderick Family
Hill Family
The Grade 4 Lightning Lord, Armes, was lying on the huge stone plaza in front of the Magus Hall, his azure dragon scales glistening under the warm sunlight.
With him here, no one would be able to enter the hall and pry into the secrets inside.
In the sky above the city, two silver-white giant airships floated quietly, surrounded by dense black dots. In the distant horizon, three towering Wizard Towers stood tall and majestic, their surroundings overflowing with dazzling brilliance.
As this was the first high-level meeting in the central continent, the entire Crimson Wing was on high alert. However, considering that all the Grade 4 Magi in the central continent were gathered here, those who dared to cause trouble at this moment were probably not even born yet!
In this hall, only Grade 4 Sorcerers had the right to sit. Their relatives and subordinates could only stand behind them and listen to them. Without the permission of a Grade 4 Magus, these 'outsiders' had no right to speak, let alone make any decisions.
Magi never had the complicated etiquette and rules of the human nobles, so as soon as the meeting began, Grim went straight to the point and pointed out the main topic of today's meeting.
Most of the attendants and Tier 3 Wizards present might not know what the term Mana Tide represented, but all the Tier 4 Wizards knew exactly what it meant.
According to records, the Demon Tide would erupt in the multiverse once every ten thousand years. An extremely powerful Demon Tide would gush out from the depths of the Ocean of Mana. Its impact would affect all material planes, the Elemental Realm, and the Abyss Realm.
The appearance of the Mana Tide was both good and bad for the dimensional civilization.
The advantage was that as the Mana Tide surged, all power systems that used magic energy as their foundation would become more powerful. The downside was that the Mana Tide would scour the material plane, which would make most of the Dimensional World's Spatial Barriers less safe.
In particular, when the Mana Tide appeared, the Astral Beasts that roamed the depths of the Endless Sea of Stars all year round would come out of their nests and take the initiative to run to various material planes to devour flesh and souls.
Moreover, under the influence of the Mana Tide, the magical creatures in the Sorcerer World would also become abnormally active. It was very likely that they would not be able to control their bloodthirsty nature and rush out of the Black Forest to attack human cities and settlements.
Hence, under the attack of both internal and external threats, every person in power had to be careful in dealing with the possible dangers that might arise!
Everyone in the meeting exchanged glances and discussed in private.
Finally, the bloodline Magus Andrews, who was dressed in white leather armour, could not help but speak.
"Has the information been confirmed?"
From his expression, it seemed like he knew nothing about the Demon Tide.
Although everyone present was a Grade 4 Magus, their individual abilities and innate talents were different. Their specialties were also not the same. Hence, Andrews, who lacked a powerful prophet in his family, obviously did not have a good grasp of the current situation.
"It has been confirmed. It's absolutely true!" Grim said in a deep voice.
Andrews sucked in a breath of cold air once more.
The interval of ten thousand years was too long. It was long enough for most of the creatures in the planes to forget about the terror of the Demon Tide. Even Grade 4 Magi had a basic lifespan of around a thousand years. Most of the time, as long as their luck was not too bad, they would be able to live their entire lives without encountering the legendary Demon Tide.
It was obvious that the Magi present today were not very lucky!
"How much time do we have?" This time, it was Declan who asked.
"About ten years!" Grim sighed, "In ten years, the first Demon Tide will affect the Magus World. When that time comes …"
Although Grimm didn't finish his sentence, the meaning behind his words resonated with everyone.
These people were already standing at the peak of the world. Even the strongest Demon Tide could not threaten their lives. However, it did not mean that their subordinates were not. Their subordinates were not afraid, but it did not mean that their subsidiary territories and secondary planes were not afraid.
Once the Demon Tide swept through, the plane's barrier would be riddled with holes. All sorts of astral beasts and otherworldly creatures could enter the plane and eat to their heart's content. Before they were chased out, the entire territory would be in a mess, and some secondary planes might even break out of control.
Hence, in addition to guarding the safety of the territories in the Magus World, the Magus Families also had to maintain order in the secondary planes. In this way, the military strength of each Magus family was stretched to the limit, and they were in dire straits.
"Ten years …"
"Yeah, why is it so short? We only have ten years to prepare …"
Most of the sorcerers looked anxious and troubled.
Perhaps after this wave of Mana Tide passed, everyone's wallets would shrink by a lot!
Of course, not all Magi were so cautious. For example, Lord Alfreid had a calm expression on his face, as if he did not care at all.
His Molten City was located at the center of the central continent. It was not bordered by the Dark Forest, and there were no large spatial rifts nearby. Hence, he was much more relaxed, and he even had the time to worry about other things.
"Lord Grim, since you've gathered us here, could it be that you've made some arrangements?"
Grim said indifferently, "The central continent used to be a pile of loose sand. No matter what we did, we could not unite and form a force. Hence, I feel that there is a need to unify everyone's strength and form a suitable defense. What do you all think? "
Although he said he was asking for everyone's opinion, the two Crimson Giants, Grimm and Mary, were sitting at one end of the conference table. Their mysterious and violent powers were gathered together, causing everyone in the conference to feel a mountain-like pressure.
All the Magi looked at each other, and finally, they could not help but look at the first person on the left side of the conference table, the patriarch of the Golden Clan, Monash. Gaia's body.
Even Grim and Mary were attracted by Gaia's aura and slowly fixed their eyes on him.
Being stared at by so many 'powerful' gazes, even Monash couldn't do anything. Gaia's strength was astonishing, but he was also starting to panic.
This was Grim's first Scarlet Conference, and if he appeared to be too forceful, it would undoubtedly bring disaster to the Golden Tribe. However, as the only Tier 4 Sorcerer in the central continent capable of restraining Grimm, he could not retreat behind the others.
So, Monash? Gaia frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "That doesn't seem appropriate! Our Golden Clan's bloodline is thin, and the number of awakened members is few. If a portion of us are transferred away, let alone those few secondary planes, I'm afraid we won't even be able to protect our family's territory! "
Facing this' thorn 'that had suddenly appeared, Mary's brows furrowed, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. In the past, she might not have dared to provoke this terrifying Golden Titan, but now that she had the support of Nightmare Castle, she was not afraid of him at all.
Although she was injured and the Nightmare Castle was in a mess, Monash was clearly not at his peak either. If they really fought, it was still unknown who would win and who would lose!
Fortunately, although Mary was furious, she knew that today's matter was too important. She could not easily mess it up. Hence, she suppressed her anger and coldly scanned the conference hall with her blood-red eyes. All the Tier 4 Magi who met her gaze could not help but feel their hearts tremble, and they took the initiative to look away.
It was said that Lady Mary had been heavily injured in the battle of laws, but it seemed that her dignified demeanor was not affected much. This caused a few of the Magi who were secretly surging with emotions to frown, and they could not help but reconsider their own plans and plans.
"You seem to be thinking too much!" Grimm had long since predicted their reactions, and once again smiled calmly, "What I'm talking about is not transferring forces from your families to replenish the Crimson Magi. Instead, according to the region and the degree of the impact of the demon wave, the families that have spare forces will transfer a portion of their forces to support the Magus families that have suffered the most."
At this point, Grimm raised his hand, and mana surged in the Magus Hall. A three-dimensional map of the central continent was projected on the table.
"Everyone, please take a look. There are a total of 31 regions in the central continent, and seven of them are in the outer regions that are directly connected to the Black Forest. The Elobis region that the Crimson Family occupies will naturally be guarded by us, and we do not need your support.
"As for the other families, it involves Mira's Kunis Family, Ariza's Manceau Family, Roderick's Hill Family … There are also three regions that are jointly managed by a few middle-ranked Magus families …
"I think that these three families will have to stabilize the secondary plane, guard against the invasion of other planes, and guard against the Black Forest's monsters. They will definitely not have enough troops. Hence, the Crimson Family is willing to provide 2,000 Magic Troops to assist them in defending against the invasion of the demon wave. "
"As for the few of you families that are temporarily free from the threat of the Black Forest, it is not too much to take an appropriate portion of your family's forces. I can guarantee that these forces will not be used in the Crimson Battlefield, and will only be invested in the Magus families that need them … "
After hearing all this, the hall instantly fell silent.
