Within the tent of the camp.
The leaders of the various Wizard Families were gathered together, silently watching the scene unfold on the screen.
Seeing the level 3 Heiness being held back by Mary and the rest, they all wore sinister smiles on their faces. Some of the Wizards who were not on good terms with the old Vampire even snorted coldly.
"Sir Yurga, do you think we should reinforce Sir Heiness?" A few Wizards could not help but suggest.
The onlookers knew that the enemy was only able to hold back the old Vampire because of the Wizard's Pagoda. Once the camp sent enough people to take them down one by one, their abilities would not be enough to threaten the many level 2 Wizards present.
Just as the crowd was getting worked up, the cold Wizard sitting at the head of the group said coldly, "Everyone, have you all forgotten how the Vic Family failed the last time?"
The hearts of the crowd sank, and the voices asking for battle quietened.
That's right. Last time, the old vampire, Heiness, had led most of the Vic family's members and charged into the Lava Hall before they could stabilize their footing. In the end, the sinister Crimson Family had poured boiling lava into the Lava Tunnel, blocking their path of retreat. They had then summoned a level 3 Lightning Dragon to wipe out the Vampires in one fell swoop.
Even though this strategy was simple, it was difficult to deal with with the terrain here!
The Crimson Throne Wizard's Pagoda was hidden deep underground, and it would be difficult to attack them without going deep underground. But if they really brought their army deep into the underground world, it would be easy for the Crimson Family to use the environment to cut off their escape route. From this, it could be seen that the Fire Wizard had put in a lot of thought when he chose this location for the Wizard's Pagoda.
"Then what do we do?" The Wizards present could not help but feel troubled, "Even if the army arrives in the future and does not dare go underground, how are we going to attack the Wizard's Pagoda? We can't just wait for them to starve to death underground! "
That Wizard Yurga laughed coldly, "You're worrying too early. I've already sent someone to sneak into the sea of lava from another route and create a sea of flames there. When the time comes, the enemy will be at the edge of the sea of lava, and will definitely be in more trouble than us. Furthermore, as long as the sea of lava does not subside, they will not be able to absorb magical energy from underground. Isn't that more advantageous to our attacks? "
The sorcerers were overjoyed.
They swept their gazes across the tent, and quickly realized that a few familiar Fire Magi were missing. Thus, they sat back down.
At this moment, the bloody battle continued in the underground magma channel!
Mary, Zacha, and Tigu retreated as they fought. They had already extended their battle line to the vicinity of the Lava Hall. The Flame Monarch's Wizard Pagoda could replenish them with five Fire Shields every minute, and each Fire Shield could withstand around 200 degrees of elemental damage.
Coupled with their own magic resistance and protective force fields, this kind of protection was already very shocking.
Unfortunately, they were facing a Tier 3 Sorcerer.
Although Vampires weren't known for their attack power, their high Agility gave them astonishing attack speed and frequency, as well as the awe-inspiring Lifesteal Regeneration ability. The Flame Shield on the three-man team never lasted more than twenty seconds before it was smashed into ashes by the sharp claws of that damned old vampire.
In the remaining forty seconds, Mary and the other two could only rely on protecting each other and doing their best to counterattack in order to force the elusive blood-red figure to retreat.
As for the wounds that the three of them inflicted on Hynes, they would usually disappear without a trace after a flash of a blood-red halo. The slow-moving Dragonman Zacha became the old vampire's main target, as well as a moving blood bank with unlimited firepower.
Her speed was not as fast, her attacks were not as sharp, and her Lifesteal ability was suppressed by her opponent. She was completely suppressed by her opponent … For the first time, Mary painfully experienced the resentment that her enemies felt when they met her!
In the past, Mary had relied on the many advantages of being a Vampire Wizard, sticking close to her enemies, charging fiercely in exchange for injuries, and then drawing blood to recover. This kind of hateful fighting style was now replicated by the old vampire, and one could imagine the depression and resentment in her heart.
From the start of the battle until now, Mary had been roaring in anger, thinking of ways to trade blows with Hynes.
Unfortunately, even with the protection of the Wizard's Pagoda, the difference in battle power between her and Hynes could not be made up. But as the three of them got closer to the Wizard's Pagoda, the power transmitted by the Wizard's Pagoda also became stronger.
When the three of them were battling Hynes near the entrance of the Lava Hall, the Wizard's Pagoda began to glow with a red light, continuously casting Flame Shields on the three of them.
If one side was broken, another would be cast, and if two were broken, four would be cast …
With the full support of the Wizard's Pagoda, Mary and the other two had seven Flame Shields revolving around their bodies, helping them block the manic attacks of the blood-red figure.
At this time, Hennes finally stopped his attacks and turned around to leave without saying a word.
As long as the Wizard's Pagoda existed, it would be wishful thinking for him to kill the three of them under the protection of the Wizard's Pagoda. Furthermore, if he ventured too deep into the area of the Wizard's Pagoda, it would be easy for the other party to target him.
Even a Level 3 Wizard like him would not be willing to take on the sudden attack of a small Wizard's Pagoda!
Mary and the other two hesitated for a moment, but did not rush forward to stop him.
Through the bloody battle just now, they had a thorough understanding of the power of a Level 3 Wizard. If they were to fight to the death, their chances of winning were less than 20%, even with the full protection of the Wizard's Pagoda.
Once the power of their family was severely damaged, how would they carry on the long defensive battle?
Thus, no matter how hot-tempered and battle-hungry Mary was, she did not dare to anger Hynes too much. Otherwise, the other party might be heavily injured, and the three of them would not be able to escape unscathed.
Following the withdrawal of the main force of the battle, the first contact that occurred before the great battle also ended without a hitch!
…
Fire Elemental Dimension.
Grimm picked up the Heqila Resonance Crystal hatefully, ending his conversation with Alice.
Even though he was in a faraway Elemental Dimension, he was still well aware of the recent happenings in the Wizard World, especially the Flame Monarch's Wizard's Pagoda.
If not for Alice's repeated assurances, Grimm would have long since turned back and started his journey back.
"Do you want a group of teammates who can fight alongside you, or a group of servants and subordinates who will cheer for you? If you're always at the forefront, do you think Mary and the others will have a chance to grow? Believe me, even though they will encounter 'certain' dangers, it's worth it in the long run. It's a must … "
Thinking of Alice's earnest advice, Grimm could only give up on the idea of immediately returning to the Crimson Throne, continuing to carefully explore other dimensions.
In the past month, he had successfully traversed tens of thousands of miles, exploring countless strange fire-elemental lands, and looting an entire Storage Ring full of fire-elemental treasures.
During this time, he had also encountered some indigenous Flame Lords in the Fire Elemental Dimension.
In such a vast Fire Elemental Dimension, any powerful fire-elemental creature could call itself a Flame Lord. The territory they ruled could be a small pool of fire that took up 20 to 30 acres, a strange fiery canyon, or a huge chain of volcanoes.
As for their strength, it ranged from Tier 1 to Tier 3, both of which were at the same level.
Hence, along the way, Grimm killed every level 1 fire-elemental creature he encountered, adding another Flame Crystal Core to his storage. If he encountered a level 2 fire-elemental creature, he would probe it a little, and if he could fight, he would find a way to ambush and kill it. After all, fire-elemental creatures were simple-minded and irritable, and it was easy to lure them out with just a little provocation.
Grimm himself was a powerful Fire Wizard, and with the help of a terrifying Balrog, he could even prepare a concealment spell formation beforehand … No matter how powerful a Flame Lord was, they would not be able to withstand such devastation. Hence, along the way, Grimm had three more level 2 Flame Crystal Cores in his storage.
However, the more one climbed the mountain, the more one would encounter a tiger. This sort of killing would bring him some unnecessary trouble sooner or later!
Some time ago, Grimm had made a mistake and provoked a level 3 Flame Tiger, and since then, he had fallen into a state of frenzy.
In one breath, he had traveled more than six thousand miles in the Fire Elemental Dimension, fighting in the territories of seven or eight Flame Lords. Only then did Grimm rely on his craftiness as a Magus and used a Flame Clone to lure the Flame Tiger in another direction. Only then did he find a fire cave to hide in, and used the Heqila Resonance Crystal to converse with Alice, who was far away in the Magus World.
With Alice's assurance, Grimm put aside his worries and focused all his attention on studying and analyzing the strange world in front of him.
He had to admit that the Fire Elemental Dimension was a high-level dimension that was worth spending a lot of time and effort to understand and control.
Firstly, the size of the dimension was not any smaller than that of the Magus World, and it was also considered a large-scale dimension.
Secondly, the upper limit of the power it could hold was much higher than that of the Magus World, as well as most material planes. After Grimm's analysis and research, he discovered that the Fire Elemental Dimension could hold elemental creatures that were as high as level 7.
This meant that Grimm had to be extremely careful if he wanted to explore the Fire Elemental Dimension. Otherwise, a mere level 2 Fire Wizard like him would not be able to withstand a slap from a high-grade fire-elemental. Not to mention a Tier 7 Fire Elemental, even a random Tier 4 Fire Elemental would kill Grim with a single slap before he could even escape.
