Thorne Merlin, who was taking the lead and killing the Elemental lifeforms at the edge of the fort, sighed in relief when he saw Lin Yun leading the Planar Legion into the battle. He had been feeling restless before Lin Yun arrived, but nothing could be done about it. The number of enemies was too frightening. Even if the Planar Legion he was leading was unprecedentedly powerful, he didn't have any confidence in facing so many enemies.
Losing was equivalent to losing the Flame Demon Fort. This was a disgrace to Thorne Merlin, who rarely lost.
Fortunately, Mafa Merlin led the Planar Legion over and stabilized the situation for the time being. With his decades of experience in Planar Wars, he could naturally see that the Flame Demon Fort was no longer in danger. What he needed to do next was to steadily defend the fort, and it wouldn't take long for this battle to be won.
Just as he slashed with his sword and the Sword Aura tore through a dozen Ash Elementals, three silhouettes suddenly flew out of the fort and pounced into the endless Elemental lifeform army.
"He … He's crazy!"
Thorne Merlin was so startled that he almost let go of his greatsword. He had already recognized that one of the three was Lin Yun, while the other two were powerhouses from the Ancestral Land with the power of an Archmage.
'Isn't this f * cking nonsense!?'
Thorne Merlin's expression turned gloomy. He had nowhere to vent his anger and kept slashing with his greatsword, tearing apart the Ash Elementals.
At this moment, the situation was already very clear. Although the two Planar Legions had completely turned the situation around after merging into one, there were simply too many elemental creatures. Even if he were to walk out of the fortress rashly and fall into the heavy encirclement of the elemental creatures, he would still face danger. With his decades of experience, he knew that he had to steadily defend and counterattack. Only then could he protect the Flame Demon Fort.
'But what did that b * stard Mafa Merlin do? He actually dared to bring two Archmages and charge into the Elemental Legion. Isn't that courting death?
'I really can't understand how such a brainless guy was appointed to the Raging Flame Plane by the Ancestral Land's Family Council. Damnit, that's a part of my authority.'
He suddenly thought of something. That guy had just joined the clan council. Could it be that he wanted to show off and establish some military merits to show off his status as a councilor?
Although it was necessary, there was still time to perform …
In fact, when Thorne Merlin saw Lin Yun leaving the Flame Demon Fort with two Archmages, his mood was very complicated. That damned bastard had crippled his son. It could be said that he had a grudge that wouldn't rest until he was dead. The last few times he saw Lin Yun, he had resisted the urge to attack. If Lin Yun died in the hands of the elemental creatures, he would definitely be very happy.
However, the current situation was clearly a little special …
He had experienced Lin Yun's strength a few months ago. By relying on two powerful Magic Tools, he could stand shoulder to shoulder with him, a 5th Rank Sword Saint. In the dangerous Raging Flame Plane, Lin Yun's strength could be considered at the peak and could even turn the tide of the battle. This was also the reason why he sighed in relief when he saw Lin Yun rush to the Flame Demon Fort.
Although he hated Lin Yun, he had no choice but to admit that that damned guy wasn't weak. He would play a decisive role in the struggle for the Raging Flame Plane. If they lost such a peak powerhouse, the Merlin Family's Planar Legion would be very passive in the future.
This was the reason why Thorne Merlin's mood was complicated. Although he hated Lin Yun to death, he didn't want Lin Yun to die immediately, at least not before the end of the Raging Flame Plane's campaign.
He was truly on edge at this time. He had arrived at the Flame Demon Fort early and was besieged by the Elemental Army. He clearly knew how frightening those Elemental lifeforms were. If he was truly surrounded, even if Mafa Merlin's strength could compare to his own, he might not be able to escape. After all, no matter how powerful a mage was, they would still run out of mana. Facing the endless siege of Elemental lifeforms, he felt that Mafa Merlin might not have the opportunity to return to the fort.
"Heavens, are those three courting death? Could it be that they don't know how frightening the Elemental lifeforms outside the Flame Demon Fort are? They actually dared to rush out …"
In fact, it wasn't just Thorne Merlin who saw them. Several thousand Planar Legion members also saw those three silhouettes and were startled speechless.
They were truly courting death …
"That young guy seems to be High Mage Merlin, and the other two are Sir Ida and Sir Yuri …"
The group that had followed Thorne Merlin to the Raging Flame Plane naturally didn't recognize Lin Yun, but the Planar Legion members that had just arrived recognized Lin Yun. Even these High Mages and Expert Swordsmen could see that doing so was very dangerous, it was no different from courting death.
At this time, everyone's gazes were focused on Lin Yun. They weren't shocked by Lin Yun's courage, they were somewhat disdainful, because they clearly saw that this young mage didn't make a move after being surrounded by the Elemental lifeforms. Instead, he hid behind the two Archmages.
Under such circumstances, he actually didn't make a move to help, even if he was a Commander!
After all, Thorne Merlin, who was also a Commander, hadn't cowered in this battle. He had been guarding the edge of the fort, shocking the Elemental lifeforms with his formidable power and sharing a lot of the pressure with the Planar Legion.
But this Mafa Merlin …
The solemn Lin Yun naturally didn't know that he was being looked down upon by countless people. He only knew that this battle wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface.
He had discovered many suspicious points when he led the Planar Legion to support Thorne Merlin. This battle had lasted over an hour, and during that time, over ten thousand Elemental lifeforms had been killed. But the number of Elemental lifeforms didn't show any signs of decreasing. Instead, it was rapidly increasing.
At that time, he had been thinking, 'These Elemental lifeforms couldn't have been blown over by the wind, right?' He was certain that there was a mastermind behind this and that everything was being manipulated. Under the operation of the Magic Array, he finally found a clue. To be more precise, it was a faint aura, and the owner of that aura should be a Raging Flame Beastman!
In fact, catching that wisp of aura wasn't as easy as he had imagined. There were countless Elemental lifeforms within ten kilometers, as well as the auras of several thousand mages, swordsmen, and archers within the Flame Demon Fort. Even Lin Yun, with his omnipotent Magic Array, had to spend a lot of effort to catch that wisp of aura in this chaotic battlefield.
After discovering that aura, he guessed that it was most likely the Raging Flame Beastmen behind all of this. Otherwise, how could there be so many Elemental lifeforms?
And they were all Fire Elemental lifeforms …
The Raging Flame Beastmen were well-known for their ability to control flames, and the powerful mages of that race had extremely powerful summoning abilities. It was because of this that the peak forces of Okland suffered a lot.
After discovering this secret, Lin Yun knew that this battle wasn't as calm as it seemed. Although the powerful Planar Legion had the upper hand for the time being and was steadily defending the Flame Demon Fort, there was a huge hidden crisis. According to Lin Yun's conjectures, those Raging Flame Beastman mages should be mixed in with the Elemental lifeforms and continuously summoning and controlling them. If they didn't do anything about it, the crisis wouldn't be resolved and would only increase.
And as the battle continued in a deadlock, the Planar Legion would gradually become exhausted, and the Flame Demon Fort would be in danger of being lost. This wasn't an outcome that Lin Yun wanted to see.
And what he was doing now was making his way through the Elemental lifeform army and relying on the Magic Array to find those Raging Flame Beastman mages and thoroughly kill them. That was the only way to quickly end this battle.
But it was clear that those Raging Flame Beastman mages weren't simple.
They were deliberately hiding their auras.
Under normal circumstances, if they wanted to hide their auras in front of Lin Yun and his Magic Array, they definitely wouldn't be able to do it without the strength of Star Sage Joy.
But the current situation was a bit special.
The situation was extremely chaotic, and it was filled with the auras of a large number of Elemental lifeforms, mages, swordsmen, and archers. Trying to find the Raging Flame Beastmen hiding their auras under such circumstances was an inconceivable matter. But the most troublesome part was that the auras of the Raging Flame Beastmen were somewhat similar to those of Fire Elemental lifeforms.
Although this wasn't enough to make Lin Yun feel helpless, it was definitely difficult.
At this time, all his energy was focused on finding the Raging Flame Beastman mages. He simply didn't have the time to make a move and could only order Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin to have these two Archmages protect him.
Then, the people who did not know the truth fiercely despised him.
"Rumble …"
A deafening sound echoed as several dozen Lava Giants surrounded Lin Yun's group of three. Moreover, there were many Ash Elves in the surroundings. At this time, scalding lava flowed down from the bodies of the Lava Giants and sprinkled down from the sky, making it impossible to guard against them.
Although Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin were powerful Archmages, they felt numb when facing so many enemies. As terrifying spells flew out of their hands and bombarded the group of Elemental lifeforms, their expressions gradually became unsightly.
There were too many Elemental lifeforms, and the three of them were still surrounded by countless Elemental lifeforms. Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin were doing their best to tear open a crack in the encirclement, but contrary to their expectations, the speed at which they were killing Elemental lifeforms was far from being able to increase their speed. If they wanted to successfully escape from the encirclement of Elemental lifeforms, they would need the help of at least a 5th Rank Archmage.
But now that they were in a predicament, where could they find a 5th Rank Archmage?
