With its Undead Body and Aura of Fear, a Tier 4 Basic Skeleton Hound was a ferocious monster that could wreak havoc on any Plane of Existence.
However, in the face of the elite battle team sent by the Wizard Association, they were defeated in just three moves, and the ground was covered in blood stains. The pile of rotting corpses also quickly decayed, turning into a puddle of pungent black liquid that slowly seeped into the black soil.
However, it also left behind a Withered Heart and a Resentment Crystal.
Both of them are Grade 4 materials, and they are very valuable.
Looking at his subordinates carefully collecting the spoils of the battle, Henry's face was covered with a short, black beard, but there was no joy on his face.
He stared solemnly at the fog below, his expression cold and resolute.
"It seems like a big guy ran out from below. Otherwise, a monster like the Undead Hound wouldn't have rushed out so recklessly …"
Schreiber, who was standing beside him, waved his Fire Shield and sensed the movement in the valley with a cautious look on his face.
"It's the smell of sulfur and fire … In my opinion, I'm afraid that some demon from the Abyss Realm has come here! Who cares, as long as we meet them, we will get rid of them. I need some Demon Blood to experiment with! "
"If it's only one or two, we don't have to be afraid with our strength, but if there are too many of them …" Speaking of this, even Henry, who has always been arrogant and impulsive, hesitated. "These demon bastards have very hard heads, and it will be very difficult to chop them off!"
"If there are too many of them, we will retreat and let them bleed in front of the War Wizard Tower before coming out to harvest them. Don't tell me you want to die in this stinky Deep Ink Valley? "Schreiber snappily retorted.
With a smile on his face, Henry took the lead and walked into the fog.
… …
Central Continent, Space Fissure.
Compared to the Moyuan Valley, the Space Fissure is a dozen times smaller, so the strength and number of monsters that snuck into the Space Fissure can't be compared to the Moyuan Valley.
But correspondingly, the overall strength of the Andrews Arden Family can't be compared to the behemoth Wizard Association. Thus, in less than a month's time, the heavy pressure he had to bear had already caused him to be mentally and physically exhausted, and he was in unbearable pain.
However, as the head of the Arden family, he couldn't give up. After all, this was his family's territory, and behind him were his trusted subordinates who had followed him for hundreds of years. On this territory, there were nearly six million subjects and countless manors, castles, and villages that belonged to the Alden Family.
As long as one or two monsters escaped from his place, the surrounding villages and citizens would face a calamity.
Although he had tried his best to arrange all the evacuation matters in the territory before the demonic wave broke out, moving most of the people to the area protected by the wizard tower. However, the resulting chaos gave him a huge headache.
The Great Mana Tide was not something that could pass in a day or two. According to previous experiences, the Great Mana Tide would erupt at the beginning, stabilize in the middle, and then slowly fade away at the end. The whole process would take up to a hundred years.
A hundred years … Perhaps this was only a small part of a high-grade wizard's life, but for those mortals who had no one to rely on, it was a long lifetime.
Relying on the family's past savings and reserves, they might be able to gather the subjects and protect them for a period of time. However, as time passed, even the Arden Family would not be able to support them.
Therefore, he only wanted to survive the first ten years of the Great Mana Tide, and when the situation was a little more stable, he would try his best to restore the territory and the subjects to their previous normal state.
However, in this plan, the Great Space Crack was always a huge unstable factor!
If one day, an extremely powerful star beast broke into the territory, and the family's arrangements here could not stop it, what would happen next? Even if one thought with one's toes, what would happen next was extremely terrifying.
To be honest, the reason why the Arden Family was able to firmly defend the Great Space Crack in the first month of the Great Mana Tide was not only because of the family's own power, but also because of the Crimson family's five hundred Magic Machine Legion, as well as Mary and Monash. Gaia …
The core strength of a normal wizard family was the family's internal wizards. Although there were not many of them, they were the core of a family and also the foundation for the family's development and strength.
In order to make up for the lack of basic combat power, most wizard families would also train some exotic beast armies or wizard troops to fight at the frontlines. Essentially, they were just a group of wizard apprentices with the same combat power as wizards. It could be considered as "recycling" those apprentices who had no hope of advancing to the next level.
However, because of the Great Mana Tide, those exotic beast armies had to return to their respective planes, where they protected the Arden Family's ruling order in the secondary planes. Therefore, Andrews was left with only the wizard beast army and a small number of wizard troops to defend the Great Space Crack.
Such a team might not have much of a problem in dealing with ordinary sorcerer wars, but if they were to be used to defend against star beasts or magical creatures that could cross the endless void and invade the sorcerer world, it would seem to be insufficient and dangerous.
So far, only two star beasts had broken into the wizard world through the Great Space Crack.
The rank four fish-shaped star beast was injured by Mary, and then it died in the hands of the Arden Family's Winged Dragon Squad. The other rank three star beast was personally killed by Andrews under the wizard tower.
In addition, there were more than a hundred monsters and monsters that came in. Among them, the lowest level was a rank two advanced vicious beast. In the mortal world, it would be easy to slaughter a city and destroy a country.
But here, it was just the most insignificant minion on the plane battlefield!
However, starting from the 37th day of the Great Mana Tide, the turbulence of the Great Space Crack became more and more intense, and the creatures that came out of it were more inclined to the Abyss Demons.
The small ones were only rank one or two Flame Devils, Longhorn Devils, Cerberus, Quaset Devils, Vlos Devils, and Succubi. The big ones were high-grade Demon Hunters, Hezrou Devils, Glabrezu Devils, Serpent Devils, and Balor Devils.
Andrews suspected that a certain Great Lord of the Abyss wanted to invade the wizard world and took advantage of the Great Mana Tide to open a plane passage from the Abyss Realm to the Great Space Crack. That was why so many ugly and annoying Abyss Demons were sent to his territory.
As everyone knew, the Abyss Demons were irritable, full of malice, arbitrary, violent, and had no sense of morality. No one could predict their next move.
They often invaded other planes, bringing destruction and fear.
They were committed to destroying and destroying everything, including their own kind, and took pleasure in doing so.
They resisted order, and even the Lord of the Abyss could not make them act according to his will.
Unless they were controlled by magic, they would never unite, and it was impossible for them to carry out any actions with a plan. Their previous thoughts would be overturned in the next moment. They did not care whether their plans could be completed or whether their goals could be achieved.
They only cared about whether their cruel, tyrannical, and bloodthirsty nature could be satisfied. Apart from that, they did not care about anything else.
In the end, the Abyss Demons were just a group of evil souls or evil thoughts created by the Will of the Abyss. They were ugly and evil creatures without any rationality to speak of.
When other monsters roamed other planes, they would have to consider whether they could survive the battle and enjoy the feast of flesh and blood later on. But these Abyss Demons did not care about that. Even if they knew that this was a battlefield of flesh and blood where death was certain, they would still rush over as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Fight, fight, and fight again until they fell into a pool of blood.
Even a level-4 wizard like Andrews would have a headache if he encountered such a bloodthirsty demon.
No matter how many Abyss Demons there were, they could not threaten his life. However, the Wizard's Pagoda of War posed a great threat to the Arden Family.
After all, all Abyss Demons were powerful evil creatures that practiced both magic and martial arts.
They had black magic-resistant skin covered in magical tattoos, and their physical strength was unprecedentedly strong. They could completely withstand the violent spells of the Wizard's Pagoda of War and kill a group of Wizard Beasts.
The demonic spells they cast could also cause visible damage to the Wizard's Pagoda of War.
More terrifyingly, most of the high-level demons had the "Precise Teleportation Spell," which could instantly teleport them to any place in the battlefield. With such a special ability, the wizards could no longer use the tactic of using Wizard Beasts to block the enemies from afar and then use the Wizard's Pagoda of War to bombard them.
If any wizard from the Arden Family dared to leave the Wizard's Pagoda, he would be surrounded by a swarm of Abyss Demons. No matter how powerful one was, no matter how powerful one's spells were, one would still die when faced with a team of butchers.
Therefore, after the death of two level-3 wizards, none of the wizards from the Arden Family dared to leave the Wizard's Pagoda.
Therefore, the task of stopping the Abyss Demons from escaping the battlefield fell on the team of Wizard Beasts. In front of the massive and powerful Abyss Demons, the Wizard Beasts were like a pack of hounds facing lions and tigers. Other than barking in despair and wailing, they could not stop the Abyss Demons at all.
Therefore, as some of the Abyss Demons escaped from the battlefield and entered the family's territory, the flames of war spread.
In just a few days, the entire territory of the Arden family was engulfed in the flames of war. Miserable cries of human beings could be heard everywhere. Demonic creatures wreaked havoc everywhere. The human society that used to be peaceful and peaceful had become the sacrificial offerings and sacrifices of this demonic tide.
