About a kilometer above Ulambus, there was a huge circular building standing in the sky.
This circular building looked like an arena. Around it were two intertwining runes hovering in the air and slowly rotating, making the entire building look like a magical miracle as it floated in the sky.
This was the greatest masterpiece of the Academy's Silver City, the Sky Storm Altar!
In the beginning, the Sky Storm Altar was also known as the Cloud Hall or the Cloud Arena. But because the kingdom of Erathia had obtained the favor of the angels and obtained the Cloud City Altar that could summon angels, in order to be separated from the Cloud City of Erathia, the Silver City changed the name of the Cloud Hall to the current name of the Sky Storm Altar.
The Sky Storm Altar was mainly used to summon titans. In Ashan, there were also other planes, such as the demons' lair, Sheogh. In fact, Sheogh was an alternate space attached to the main world, and it was an outpost established by the Abyss demons in Ashan. Similarly, in addition to Sheogh, there was also the Elysium Corridor that belonged to the angels, the Mountain Temple where the titans lived, the Kingdom of Dragons where the dragons lived, and so on. Some of these alternate spaces could be entered relatively easily, while others could not. But in Ashan, people called them mystic realms.
These Mythical creatures were closely related to the various races of Ashan. Perhaps it was because the Dragon of Order, Asha, and the Dragon of Chaos, Urgash, had been constantly fighting since they were born. The entire Ashan world had always been in constant conflict, and the main reason for this chaotic war was because of the problem of faith. Therefore, not to mention the various races, even the Mythical creatures found it difficult to watch from the sidelines. They could only choose their own positions in the war and join it.
The area of the Sky Storm Altar above Ulambus was not large, so the power of the magic formation that could be engraved was limited. It could not summon top-notch titans and was a second-level summoning altar.
But even so, having a top-notch summoning altar meant that Ulambus was a large city. When the alarm bells rang in the city below, the two Academy heroes in the Sky Storm Altar quickly received the news.
"Lord Nasir, Lord Galib!" An Archmage who was lucky enough to escape teleported to the Sky Storm Altar through the teleportation array in the city. The Archmage, who was not good at movement, was already panting from exhaustion after running from the outside of the hall. However, he could not care less about panting. As he ran, he shouted, "Ulambus needs your … your support!"
"Hmm?" Beside the altar's magic array, a man in a red robe turned his head first, but his face could not be seen clearly because he was wearing a mask with complicated patterns. This was the Nathir that the Archmage had mentioned.
Nathir was a master of arcana known as' Fire Dancer '. With his outstanding talent in fire magic, he stood out among the mages and became a hero-level figure in the academy. He also had a fiery temper. Upon hearing the archmage's shout, he immediately stood up and asked, "What happened?"
"It's … it's the Dragon Balls!" The Great Daoist Master panted heavily. "We … we fell into a trap! It was a trap. The Dragon Ball was sealing a powerful demon! We accidentally opened the seal, and now the demon has appeared in Ulambus … "
Before he could finish, another academy hero, Galib, shook his head and said, "Seriously, I've already told you not to rashly experiment with treasures that aren't recorded … How much trouble do you want to stir up before you're satisfied?"
Galib, this hero of the Academy, had blue skin and was shining brightly because he was not a human but a djinn. Because he had broken through the shackles of a djinn, he had obtained the recognition of the Academy's mages and become a hero. However, Galib was not good at offensive magic but alchemy.
Galib's complaints were not unreasonable. In fact, the curiosity of the mages in exploring the mysterious side had already caused many troubles, but they did not repent and had always been arrogant, causing such incidents to be unable to be put an end to.
The hot-tempered Nathir did not care so much and directly said, "Galib, I'll go first. If you receive a response from the titans, support us from the sky!"
"Okay!" Galib did not say anything. He nodded and continued to stand beside the magic formation, injecting his magic power to communicate with the titans living in the High Mountain Temple.
Mythical creatures like angels and Titans were reserved. It wasn't that easy to summon them. They had powerful strength and also had arrogant personalities. To obtain the recognition of a Titan, Heroes needed to spend a long time communicating with them. Some of the more impressive top-notch Titans would even set up trials for Heroes to complete.
However, once they obtained the recognition of a titan and signed a contract, heroes would be able to summon a titan to fight during battle. These powerful titans had god-like power and were magic treasures for victory in war.
Fire Dancer Nathir quickly returned to Ulambus through the teleportation formation. But as soon as he came out, he saw that the entire city had fallen into great panic!
Roy's Fear Field had always shrouded this city, and the weak soldiers did not even have the will to fight, let alone the civilians. Under the trend of fear, the people living in this city fled everywhere and rushed out of the city gates, wanting to escape. The defense forces of Ulambus could not organize an effective resistance under these circumstances.
Of course, this could not go on. After realizing this, Nathir immediately realized that the city seemed to have suffered a large-scale magic similar to the Madness Curse, so he did not care about the consumption of magic power and immediately began chanting.
About ten seconds later, Nathir waved the magic staff in his hand, and fluorescent magic power light splashed out. This magic light quickly spread to every corner of the city.
This was a lucid magic. Under Nathir's sparing no effort in casting it, the people shrouded in panic finally eased. They woke up from their fear. Although they no longer felt afraid, they looked around blankly.
"Immediately organize the evacuation of the civilians!" Nathir said to the archmage. "Reduce casualties as much as possible!"
"What about you, Your Excellency?" the archmage asked.
"I'll go meet that demon!" Nathir said. "Gather the remaining troops in the city under my command!"
The archmage nodded and immediately went to convey the order. Soon, an army of about four hundred people rushed to Nathir's side. Although most of them were iron golems and gargoyles, there were also a small number of nagas. Nathir estimated that it should be enough, so he rode an elephant and led the army to the square.
In the square, Roy had already killed most of the Academy troops gathered here. The nagas were the melee masters of the Academy, but when they could not get close to Roy, it was useless no matter how strong they were.
The entire square was in a mess. The limbs of the iron golems and gargoyles were scattered everywhere, and there were many lamp pots that had fallen to the ground. They were the remains of the djinns whose bodies had been destroyed. The corpses of the nagas were also lying everywhere. They were the only creatures bleeding in the field. As for the gremlins, they had long escaped under the effect of the Field of Fear.
After Nathir arrived at the square, he saw this scene.
He looked at Roy, who was floating in the air, in bewilderment. When the archmage reported to him, he only said 'a powerful demon', but Nathir did not know how strong this demon was. It was not until he saw Roy that he understood that Ulambus was in big trouble this time!
Of course, Roy also saw Nathir rushing over. This mage-like guy riding on an elephant and surrounded by a group of soldiers looked like a leader-type hero no matter how he looked at it.
Out of probing, Roy did not even bother talking and directly stretched out his hand to send a Finger of Death at Nathir!
Black lightning jumped and instantly arrived in front of Nathir. But unexpectedly, Nathir's body suddenly flashed, and three translucent rotating magic shields instantly appeared beside him. Roy's lightning bombarded the three shields and was annihilated.
At the same time, a ring on Nathir's right hand exploded with a bang.
Nathir was shocked. The ring on his hand was a treasure with the Air Divine Shield magic sealed inside. It was mainly used to defend against this incomparably fast lightning magic. But he did not expect that just one lightning magic from the demon opposite him would cause his treasure to collapse. The magic power contained in this magic had already exceeded the defensive load of the treasure!
"Attack!" Realizing that the power of the demon magic opposite him was extraordinary, Nathir did not dare to be careless. He waved the magic wand in his hand and cast a group Air Divine Shield and Clear Mind on the entire army before commanding them to charge at Roy.
An army led by a hero was completely different from an army led by a hero. With the buff of Clear Mind, the gremlins under Nathir were no longer affected. They waved the iron chain balls in their hands and smashed at Roy one after another. Under the cover of the long-range troops, the iron golems and gargoyles also charged at Roy.
In an instant, Roy was surrounded by these Academy troops and fell into a human wave tactic. He originally wanted to use magic to attack, but Nathir kept buffing the troops from the rear. In addition to the initial Air Divine Shield, when he found that Roy could still use frost magic, he immediately cast Ice Shield on the troops to resist frost attacks. Although Roy's magic could attack these troops, its lethality was greatly reduced, and he could no longer kill the enemies as easily as before.
