That night, there was a serious Wizard invasion in the territory of the Giant Barbarian Elephants.
After a brutal battle, the leader of the Giant Barbarian Elephants paid the price of being heavily injured to force the terrifying human Fire Wizard to retreat with the help of his five companions.
However, just as the monsters in the Black Forest were confused and running around like headless flies, on the second night, Giant Hammer Mountain, which was occupied by nearly a hundred ogres, was also set ablaze. The rumbling of the flames shook the forest.
The intense battle continued for the entire night.
When the sky brightened, the Magical Beasts were shocked to discover that the Giant Hammer Mountain had been burnt beyond recognition.
As for the leader of the Ogres, the Twin-headed Ogre Zach, he was even more furious. If not for the advice of the Three-headed Magical Hound Angujia, he might have already led all of his subordinates to attack the human's Wizard's Pagoda.
It was no wonder that Zach was so violent. During the battle the previous night, the despicable and cunning human Wizard did not even land on the ground. Relying on the flying ability of the Manticore, he hovered thirty to forty meters in the night sky. Then, like a naughty child pouring boiling water on an ant's nest, he fearlessly used a large area of effect Fire Elemental Sorcery to destroy the Ogres' nest.
Adult Ogres knew how to dig holes in the mountain to avoid the unpredictable weather. However, most of the Ogres only set up simple tents or shacks in the campsite.
Therefore, when they were faced with a despicable being that soared high up in the night sky and continuously spreading elemental flames, they could not come up with any effective ways to attack the enemy other than covering their heads and dodging or desperately throwing rocks to chase him away.
In the entire Ogre camp, the Twin-headed Ogre Zach was the only one who knew Wizard Spells. However, he only knew Bloodthirsty Rampage and did not know anything about lightning element Wizard Spells. Thus, when faced with a situation where he could only take a beating without being able to retaliate, he could only stomp his feet and curse.
After a night of bombardment, the Giant Hammer Mountain became a mountain of ash.
The few trees that were left in the first place were all ignited. The violent flames turned the Giant Hammer Mountain into a barren mountain of rocks. It was a desolate scene of smoke and fire.
However, there were not many Ogres who died. Instead, there were many who fainted from the thick smoke and were burned by the flames. With the terrifying regenerative abilities of the Ogres, such injuries would heal in less than half a day.
For two consecutive nights, the territories of two groups of monsters were raided by human Sorcerers. This undoubtedly made the remaining monsters even more vigilant.
As expected, it was the Wyvern that was attacked on the Third Night.
By some unknown means, that abominable human Wizard had snuck under the cliff where the wyverns lived, planted a large number of alchemy bombs, and then collapsed half of the cliff with a fireball.
This kind of insidious and cunning method instantly caused more than half of the Wyverns to lose their nests.
This completely infuriated all the monsters in the surrounding Black Forest. They gathered together and angrily denounced the atrocities of the human Wizards. They strongly requested to launch another surprise attack on the human Wizard Pagoda and swore to chase the human Wizards out of their territory.
However, the experienced and prudent Three-headed Hellhound Angujia shook his head vigorously. With a sorrowful expression, he recounted the events of the Beast Tide attack launched by the old feudal lord.
Hearing that the Wizard Pagoda was built underground, the Giant Barbarian Elephants, who were as large as mountains of flesh, immediately retreated. Even though they had immense strength and had never feared anyone in the Black Forest, the nest of the other party was underground. They could not reach it no matter how long their noses were!
Were they supposed to topple the mountain of earth and dig a tunnel to attack the Wizard's Pagoda?
The rest of the Scarlet Flame Tigers and Abebe Bee Men were large enough to burrow underground, but after hearing Angujia's description of the Sea of Fire attack, they immediately gave up.
Without the meat shields of the Giant Barbarian Elephants and Ogres, they were not foolish enough to use the lives of their tribesmen to attack the sturdy Wizard's Pagoda!
However, if they did not uproot the Wizard's Pagoda, they would not be able to tolerate the unbridled sneak attacks of the human Wizards. Thus, the leaders of the Magical Beasts discussed among themselves, but could not come up with a suitable solution.
"All of you, shut up!" In the darkness, Medusa swayed her slender waist as she slithered out. "If you don't dare to take revenge on the human Wizard's Pagoda, then send someone to block their entrance and force them to negotiate with us!"
"Negotiate?" A few of the leaders of the Magical Beasts revealed shocked expressions.
"That's right, negotiate!" Dana straightened her snake tail, causing her body to grow larger. "Since no one dares to fight, then we'll negotiate with the human Wizards! The forest here is vast, enough for everyone to live here. There's no need to kill all of them! "
"What if the human Wizards don't agree?" Queen Abebe was the only female in the tribe of Bee Men. She had just settled here with a few warriors, and there were less than a hundred of them in the tribe. Their abilities were the weakest among the Magical Beasts, and thus they did not dare to start a war easily.
"If he dares to disagree, then we'll force him to agree!" Dana's beautiful face revealed the ferocity unique to Magical Beasts. "Even though we don't dare to attack the human Wizard's Pagoda easily, we can seal off their entrances and exits. If the human Wizards refuse, then we'll take turns sending troops to seal off their entrances and exits. I don't believe that they can last long without supplies from the outside world … "
Dana's suggestion was clearly more in line with what everyone wanted. The Magical Beasts all thought hard before agreeing to her suggestion. However, when it came to who they should send as their representative, the demonic creatures all showed signs of fear on their faces.
Just like Magical Beasts, no Magical Beast would trust a human Wizard. That human Wizard was filled with a murderous aura. If they were to send someone over, they would be sending themselves into a tiger's den, with no return!
Just as the Magical Beasts could not help but decline, Medusa once again stepped forward.
"I was the one who suggested this, so let me go!" Medusa looked around with her beautiful eyes. "But it's too dangerous for me to go alone. Who can accompany me …"
When Medusa's eyes landed on the Twin-legged Flying Dragon King Lark, it broke out in a cold sweat for no reason. It had a feeling that if it were to recommend itself, its life as a demon would end right there and then.
The few new and old Magical Beast leaders either did not have a suitable physique, or rejected it for some reason. In the end, this difficult task fell on the "unlucky" Three-headed Magic Hound Angujia.
Angujia had lost one of its heads in the previous terrifying battle. After a period of recuperation, a giant blister had formed where the dog's head used to be. It looked like it would be able to regain its title of Three-headed Magic Hound in a few months!
But now, it was the weakest Magical Beast apart from the Bee Queen. Hence, under the persuasion of the Magical Beast leaders, it could only grimace and accept this dangerous task.
Nighttime.
Medusa and the Three-headed Magic Hound Angujia went around the campsite of the Troops at the outer perimeter, squatting at the only path in and out of the Flame Cave.
Finally, they intercepted the human Wizard, Tower Leader Grimm, who was about to leave.
Both sides began a dangerous negotiation at the entrance of the Flame Cavern, and in the nearby forest, there were many scouts sent by the leader of the magical creatures.
After Medusa's threats, the detestable Fire Wizard, the master of the human Wizard's Pagoda, was finally forced to sign a temporary ceasefire agreement.
Within two years, the human Wizard's Pagoda was not allowed to develop any territory in the northern forest. Any Wizard belonging to the Flame Monarch's Wizard's Pagoda was not allowed to enter the territory of the Magical Beasts.
Correspondingly, the Magical Beast leaders also acknowledged the existence of the Flame Monarch and placed the surrounding twenty miles under the jurisdiction of the Wizard's Pagoda. No Commander-level Magical Beast was allowed to cross the border and abduct the subordinates of the Wizard's Pagoda. They were also not allowed to attack humans who entered the safe zone of the Wizard's Pagoda.
Even though the agreement was simple and crude, it showed that both parties were not willing to expand the scale of the war. The entire agreement was only limited to Commander-level Magical Beasts and the Wizards of the Wizard's Pagoda. It did not mention anything about the ordinary Magical Beasts and Wizard Apprentices.
This was also a foreshadowing of the constant 'friction' in the future!
The moment the agreement was announced, it won the approval of all the Magical Beasts.
They all agreed that the agreement effectively bound the hands and feet of the human Wizard's Pagoda and chased the annoying human Wizards out of the Dark Forest. As for the troops and apprentices sent by the humans, while they were working hard to hunt the wild beasts and Magical Beasts in the forest, the Magical Beasts were also happily hunting them.
As for Grimm, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
The establishment of the safe zone would increase the image and prestige of the Flame Monarch's Wizard's Pagoda in the hearts of the troops and apprentices. A rule of the battlefield that even the Magical Beasts had to obey would boost the morale of everyone.
Compared to the Magical Beasts, the humans were the most cunning fellows who used the rules!
Furthermore, using the agreement to restrict the terrifying Magical Beast leaders would undoubtedly increase the safety of the Flame Monarch's Wizard's Pagoda. This was the only way he could leave the Flame Monarch without worry and complete the damned mission his family had forced upon him.
But before he left, he still had to transfer a large portion of his authority to Grimm. After going through the complicated and strict transfer of authority, Grimm had almost gained control over the entire Wizard's Pagoda. Other than Grimm's residence on the fourth level and the entire fifth level, Grimm could enter and leave any part of the Wizard's Pagoda as he pleased.
He believed that with the cunning Grimm guarding the place, as well as Lin Yao's support in the dark, as well as the two 'Demon Spies', An Gujia and Dana, the Flame Monarch would not have any problems.
Furthermore, the small-scale Teleportation Formation on the fifth level of the Wizard's Pagoda had already been set up. If anything happened to the Wizard's Pagoda, Grimm only needed to be willing to spend some Magical Crystals to return to the Flame Monarch!
