"Although their spells belong to the category of darkness spells, they specialize in shadow spells, which is completely different from my darkness spells. Even mages stronger than them might be killed if they aren't careful.
"It is said that a few assassin organizations in the Odin Kingdom are related to the Shadow Tower, and some assassinations seem to be carried out by the Shadow Tower's mages.
"Direct combat is fine, but you have to be careful of their sneak attacks, they are very frightening.
"Their leader came to the Raging Flame Plane this time, thinking that it was a Heaven Rank powerhouse, but that Heaven Rank powerhouse disappeared after coming to the Raging Flame Plane. Everyone, including the Heaven Rank powerhouses, couldn't sense where that person went.
"His concealment ability has already reached a frightening level. If it was an assassination, few people in the Raging Flame Plane would be able to escape. Even those Heaven Rank powerhouses might not necessarily be able to escape.
"That existence has been missing for a long time, and the next time he appears, something big might happen.
"Thus, many people of the Odin Kingdom clearly hate the Shadow Tower, but they aren't willing to offend them.
"Their current leader is the original 2nd in command, but he didn't come to the Raging Flame Battlefield this time. Their leader is the nephew of that 2nd in command, a genius of the Shadow Tower called Dyrrhus. He is innately suitable for the Shadow Tower's inheritance. It is said that his chances of advancing to the Heaven Rank are very high. A Heaven Rank powerhouse of the Shadow Tower once asserted that he would definitely advance to the Heaven Rank within thirty years."
Lin Yun sneered as he mentioned the Shadow Tower.
He had been in some friction with the Shadow Tower recently. The Four Seasons Plain bordered the Shadow Tower's territory, so there would naturally be some friction.
The Four Seasons Plain was a treasure land to begin with. Not only was the climate good, but it was also rich in natural resources. Almost all of the magic metals produced in the Raging Flame Plane could be produced in the Four Seasons Plain, and the reserves weren't small.
Moreover, the Four Seasons Plain bordered the Diluo Mountain Range, and the Diluo Mountain Range was rich in plants and medicinal ingredients. There were even some rare medicinal ingredients that were already extinct in Noscent.
How could the Shadow Tower not be envious of such a place? They attacked from another direction with the goal of attacking the Four Seasons Plain.
However, just as they conquered the territory bordering the Four Seasons Plain, the Four Seasons Plain had already been conquered by Lin Yun. Moreover, the Four Seasons Plain was still under his control.
The frictions on the border had been getting more and more serious. Lin Yun had lost over twenty puppets, while over thirty of the Shadow Tower's mages had been killed.
A few days ago, a mage of the Shadow Tower had infiltrated the Grey Beastmen's fort and tried to infiltrate the Grey Beastmen's fort's forbidden area. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything and was turned to ashes by a puppet.
Some important areas of the Grey Beastmen's fort were covered in Mage Eyes, as well as secret True Eyes. Trying to sneak in was just a dream.
Because of this, Lin Yun had remodeled the Grey Beastmen's fort's defensive system and secretly added True Eyes. Any shadow trying to sneak in would be discovered immediately, and the surrounding puppets would ruthlessly kill them.
This was all done in secret, and when needed, he could even rely on the Grey Beastmen's fort's mana reactor to provide power to illuminate every corner of the fort with True Sight, and all the shadows would appear under the light.
Every team of puppets that went out on patrol had also been modified to detect shadows and use concealment spells.
These puppets were even given orders to capture all mages using shadow spells, and if they couldn't capture them, they were to kill them without hesitation.
The puppets perfectly carried out the orders, so the Shadow Tower couldn't do anything about it. It's just that there were more and more friction at the borders.
Dyrrhus had already seen Lin Yun when he arrived and naturally knew that Lin Yun was the ruler of the Four Seasons Plain. Now, seeing that Hören and Lin Yun seemed to be talking about them, Dyrrhus sneered and walked towards Lin Yun with large strides.
"You are that daring Merlin Family's Commander? Damn b * stard, the one who killed my Envoy was your subordinate, right? Are you provoking the Shadow Tower's prestige? "
Dyrrhus immediately denounced him. He slightly raised his head and stared at Lin Yun with undisguised malice.
Lin Yun indifferently glanced at Dyrrhus.
"Envoy? I didn't see him, I just happened to catch a mouse and casually pinched him to death. "
Dyrrhus' eyes suddenly widened and he released undisguised killing intent. Mana fluctuations appeared, and his narrow eyes were like a viper's as he unwaveringly stared at Lin Yun 'neck. The shadow under his feet kept changing shape.
"Mafa Merlin, do you know that you are about to die? I advise you to hurry up and go back. Don't come here, you are just throwing away your life. You are so young, go back and drink milk for a few years. You might not be able to come out of the Raging Flame Battlefield.
"Moreover, you'd better hurry back and look after your little territory. Perhaps one day, those daring subordinates of yours will die inexplicably, and no one will manage the fortress that you've taken so much effort to conquer. Don't blame me for being impolite when that time comes. I'll help you take care of the Four Seasons Plain. Oh, and Diluo Fortress, that's a good place …"
"It would be too much of a waste in your hands …"
Lin Yun sneered as he glanced at Dyrrhus.
"Haha … You should take care of yourself. A lot of puppets have appeared in the Four Seasons Plain recently, and their range is a bit wide. Be careful of those brainless guys killing their way out of the Four Seasons Plain. It wouldn't be good if they killed their way somewhere else.
If there's a mouse that wants to steal something, it's best to be beaten to death. I have a lot of cats, and before I kill my prey, I like to play with them until they're dead. "
The limit on the number of people entering the Raging Flame Battlefield was relatively large, and it was very dangerous inside. Apart from the dangers of the Raging Flame Battlefield itself, the people entering the Raging Flame Battlefield were even more dangerous than the Raging Flame Battlefield itself.
Thus, Lin Yun couldn't bring too many people. The puppet army and the mage army were placed in the Grey Beastmen's fort, and there were only a dozen people coming, including the puppets.
After all, the Andalusia Kingdom had the fewest quotas, and the four forces had even fewer quotas. This was also the reason why the Andalusia Kingdom was at a disadvantage.
Moreover, the Shadow Tower had been in constant conflict at the border of the Four Seasons Plain recently, and a mage that had infiltrated the Grey Beastmen's fort had been killed. There was no need to think about it to know that the conflict would definitely be even more intense.
Especially the strongest few, they had followed Lin Yun to the Raging Flame Battlefield, it was even more likely that the other side would come up with something.
Before Lin Yun left, he had issued a death order. As long as there was trouble, the Shadow Tower's people would be killed first. If there was any friction at the border, the puppet army would increase the border's defenses and kill all those who tried to cross the border.
If the other side took advantage of the situation, the Teleportation Door between the Radiant Fort and the Grey Beastmen's fort would open, and the mage army would lead the puppet army to crush them all.
After such a long time, the number of puppets was enough for Lin Yun to support a large-scale campaign on his own. He wasn't afraid of what the Shadow Tower wanted to do.
Facing Dyrrhus' threat, Lin Yun sneered.
Dyrrhus squinted, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"Mafa Merlin, you'd best pray that you can come out of the Raging Flame Battlefield this time. It would be a pity if you died inside. I heard that there are many dangerous things in the Raging Flame Battlefield, and dying is very normal. You should pray that you don't encounter one, or you'll die a very unsightly death.
"Your soul might be caught and unable to free itself.
"Have you heard of the Soul Devouring Beast? That kind of magic beast specializes in devouring souls. It is said that there are some in the Raging Flame Battlefield. The devoured souls would be tortured in the belly of the Soul Devouring Beast before being digested bit by bit, and their souls would thoroughly disappear from this world.
"I know where that kind of terrifying magic beast is, do you want me to tell you?
"Mafa Merlin, as long as you kneel and apologize to me and hand over the Four Seasons Plain as compensation, I'll tell you and let you live."
Lin Yun had a cold expression as he seriously looked at Dyrrhus.
"It just so happens that I heard that there is a kind of magic beast in the Raging Flame Battlefield that likes to devour mana and blood. After they catch their prey, they won't kill them. Instead, they use their innate ability to seal their prey's mana before slowly devouring their mana.
"It's like raising pigs and beasts. They let their prey's mana keep recovering while they keep devouring it. They would then bite two bloody holes in their prey's body and devour a bit of blood every day.
"Until the prey's mana and blood are all gone, the prey wouldn't die. At that time, the prey would be used as a bone for the cub to grind its teeth. The cub would slowly gnaw and torture it for at least three to four days before it would die. When it died, the flesh and blood of its limbs would be completely devoured, and it would be able to see how it died with its own eyes.
"I just happen to know how to deal with that kind of magic beast, and I also know the environment they live in. I think that your luck might not be too good. You might encounter one this time, so you have to be careful.
"As for the Soul Devouring Beasts, I just happen to know how to deal with them. Moreover, I feel that you'd better be careful. I feel that you fit the taste of the Soul Devouring Beasts."
Dyrrhus clenched his teeth and lowered his voice, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Country bumpkin from Andalusia, don't think that I don't know you. Andalusia is a small, third-rate family. A 7th Rank Archmage who isn't valued by his family might be nothing more than cannon fodder in a place like the Raging Flame Battlefield.
