At the end of August.
On the new continent, the aftershocks of the "Fog Sea" incident were still fermenting.
Some forces were celebrating, while others were in a mess. All kinds of open and covert confrontations did not stop for a moment.
At dusk on a fine day.
In the upper reaches of the San Francisco River in the southern part of the new continent, which seemed to be unaffected by the disputes, three small two-masted mixed sailboats that had almost completely blended into the environment. They only revealed a trace of abnormality because they were going against the current. They slowly docked at a deeper river bank with lush vegetation.
The optical invisibility effect slowly dissipated, revealing the dark green color of the sailboats.
It was still the rainy season. Although large warships could not enter the inland river, small privateers like these were not a problem at all.
Elvin, who had activated the "Venom" armor on his body, walked out of the cabin and confirmed the target's situation through the mental network. He waved his hand and gave an order.
"Abandon ship and go ashore!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In a short span of two minutes, all of the figures that were even more agile than cheetahs had already flown to the riverbank and entered the dense forest to hide.
They were only three kilometers away from the target location, which was close enough for the wizards. If they continued to advance on the river without any cover, the risk of being exposed would undoubtedly increase greatly.
Elvin was responsible for holding the line. After he stepped on the riverbank last, he glanced at all the combat personnel in this operation.
With Elvin himself [Branded Swordsman], Anita [Great Knight], and Gör [Tree of Life Totem Warrior] as the leaders, there was also a powerful external aid in a hooded robe that no one would have expected.
Extraordinary level pirate cadre: William, Alec, Baldwin (Leatherman), Zenaro (Tree of Life Totem Warrior), Molly (Tidal Messenger), Jeanne, Jeraldine, Onions (who had just joined the "Oathbreaker")
Other than the loss in the Fog Sea, the number of "Leathermen" had increased to fifty during this period of time. They had become the backbone of the "Dragon Rider Pirates" team.
Angel and Olivia, who had worked tirelessly, deserved the most credit.
There was also the "Venom" Legion made up of 300 elite pirates. Although they could only equip the simplified version of "Venom" that could be enhanced to the Senior Apprentice level, it was already a powerful force that not many forces could bring out.
In addition, Milan, Boris, and Gary, the three orthodox superhumans from Storm Horn, were also present.
As for Vader and Flake, who Elvin thought highly of in the navy, Vader and Flake, who were no longer recruits, they were the only two who had the potential to become official knights on their own. However, Elvin didn't take them with him.
They had been following Elvin for nearly three years. With the resources and guidance of Elvin, both of them had reached the peak of the Novice level and were ready to make the final push to become an official Knight.
Even if the hope of reaching Grade Three was slim, it was still the most stable and orthodox path of Transcendence. They could also be promoted in the kingdom's officer system like Gary. In the future, they could not be an important part of the "Garriott Faction" in the navy.
Elvin didn't even lack ordinary official Knight now. Naturally, he wouldn't hold them back.
Apart from that.
Because this matter was related to his own path as a wizard and the future of the "School of Activation", Elvin, who was gradually growing stronger, could be considered to have also mobilized all the forces under his command, cutting off all means of retreat, leaving no room for escape. He was determined to crush the enemy fair and square.
He could only succeed and not fail!
Moreover, with the traitor Samuel, the evil alchemist, there, Elvin had the conditions to learn from Huggins' actions when he seized the "Heart of the Ocean". He had done his homework in advance and knew his enemy well.
From the moment he captured Samuel, Elvin stationed a large number of seagulls here. When he saw the "Blasphemer" appearing nearby, he had already realized that he couldn't wait any longer.
"From now on, everyone is silent. Only communication through the mental network is allowed. Led by the Leathermen, let's go! "
Olivia, who was following closely behind Elvin, tacitly threw out an organic tourmaline the size of an egg.
Imit —
[Gem Witchcraft: Mimicry]
A dim colorful brilliance flashed, and the team of nearly four hundred people slowly disappeared into the forest.
As long as one looked up from this position, they would be able to see the towering cliffs of the river valley not far away. A huge fortress with many mechanical structures stood quietly in the sunset.
.....
At the same time, in the High Cliff Castle.
The chief of the school, Cedric, looked down at the two official wizards and ten apprentices below. The setting sun shone on his face through the narrow window of the fortress. His expression was somewhat gloomy and difficult to read.
"Have you memorized the doctrine of the Mist of Order? Get ready. The messenger has sent back a message. They will make a special trip to the High Cliff Castle tonight to hold the initiation ceremony for all of you. "
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
Immortality was almost at their fingertips. The first batch of evil alchemists who were ready to welcome their new life could only be excited.
Ever since the "Blasphemer" who was the messenger visited the High Cliff Castle and exchanged a few letters in the middle. With the [Wisdom Machinery Template] as a cover for the possibility of spiritual transcendence in the future, the internal department gradually reached a "unified" opinion.
To be more precise, the faction in the school that supported the cooperation easily overwhelmed the faction that opposed it.
Then, the members of both sides could not wait to start the first step of cooperation. They took the path of "small-scale experiments" and "large-scale expansion" later.
As for why the other party chose the High Cliff Castle as the venue for the initiation ceremony, Cedric, who did not say much on this matter, knew very well.
It was nothing more than a declaration of a miracle to expand the influence of the school and use this opportunity to attract more Mechanical Immortality School of Wizards to join the Mist of Order.
After informing the first batch of "volunteers" of the news, Cedric turned his head to look at the second and third seats beside him and did not say anything more.
However, as a person who could sit on the throne of the school's first seat, he had his own considerations.
If the evil alchemists collectively joined the Mist of Order, on the surface, he, as the first seat, would obviously be the one who would lose the most benefits. However, he could see that most of the people in the school were ready to move. It was a school of Dark Wizards. What could he expect from the perseverance and perseverance of the members of the school?
"But, this is good too …"
With the bait of "immortality" hanging in front of him, at least he could easily distinguish the thoughts of everyone in the school. Then, he could rely on the Mist of Order to seize greater benefits for himself.
Suddenly.
Boom!
Cedric, who was deep in thought, suddenly changed his expression and stood up. The second and third seats beside him did the same, but they were half a step slower.
In the sharp spiritual senses of the three peak wizards, a gloomy and huge magic wave suddenly exploded outside the redoubt. It was as if a hole had been torn open in the material world and connected to a dark and strange place.
The next moment.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream suddenly sounded from the lower level of the redoubt, followed by the roar of the alchemists' guns and cannons.
Roar!
Soon, in this hall filled with shadows, a group of more than a dozen giant shadow wolves that were taller than humans suddenly rushed out and pounced on the apprentices standing below.
Cedric, who reached out his hand and pointed a dazzling light ball to dispel all the darkness in the hall, saw this group of intruders and his expression changed slightly.
"Shadow creatures?! The Blackspirit school? "
Although they were all from the same school of Dark Wizards, there was not much hatred between them. Why would they declare war on him at this time?
Outside the High Cliff Castle, about a kilometer away from the cliff.
Kaka, the Shadow Wyrm, whose body was more than ten meters long, was lying on all fours on the ground with its tail raised high and a low growl came from its throat.
In front of it was a hole that was deeper than the night, and it was spitting out giant dark blue wolves one after another.
As soon as they appeared, they would turn into shadows under the setting sun and rush into the High Cliff Castle to kill.
The Shadow Realm was a magical world that existed parallel and coexisted with the material world where humans lived. It was a dark realm with a dim light, and it could be understood as a projection of the material world.
In this world, there were mountains, rivers, continents, oceans, and even various human cities.
However, everything in this world was distorted. It was filled with the contrast of black and white, and the colors were monotonous and dull. No normal human would want to stay in this place for long.
When the Shadow Realm overlapped with the material world at a certain moment, it would form a natural wonder called the Black Dam.
If a barren land of the Shadow Realm manifested in a remote place in the material world, it would not have much of an impact. However, if the nest of a powerful Shadow Realm creature became the Black Dam and descended into the material world, it would definitely be a disaster.
Elvin had once obtained many coordinates of the Shadow Realm from the Shadow School dark wizard, Simpson, who was hiding in Katarov's Death Portrait.
Of course, they did not dare to touch the extremely dangerous ones, but a small nest of shadow creatures with hundreds of shadow wolves was not a problem.
Kaka, who had obtained the blood of an orthodox shadow dragon, was enough of a deterrent to them. He dared not say anything else, but it was enough to let them distinguish between friend and foe.
Of course, a natural disaster like the Black Dam could not be created, but a large number of transcendent materials could be used to forcefully connect the Shadow Realm and the material world to establish a small realm passage.
Behind Kaka.
The wind of spirituality whistled.
The portable ritual [Position Ritual — Red-Haired Witch] that Olivia had made in advance had been rearranged. Circles of complicated red rune arrays were already in an activated state.
Pipi, the "Bramble Crown Sea Snake," had officially crossed the limit of 50 meters and become a large sea monster. Due to its huge size, it did not travel on land with Elvin. Instead, it was directly teleported by Kaka's [Black Cavity].
At this moment, under Elvin's command, the Demon King had coiled up his steel-scaled body and surrounded the ritual, acting as the last flesh barrier. In terms of defense, it was not much weaker than a steel barrier of the same size.
Pipi was speechless. Is this something a human would do?
At the same time, Elvin, who was standing inside the ritual, raised his hands high.
Whoosh —
When the Shadow Demon Wolf broke into the fortress and caused chaos, the [Puppet Bomb] in the sky that used alchemy bombs as a body and had a pair of transparent air wings had also arrived at the predetermined position.
As Elvin waved his hand.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
It was as if missiles with guidance functions were rushing down.
At this time, a brass door appeared at the top of the bastion.
The first seat of the school, Cedric, used the fort-like wizard tower's teleportation ability to step out. The three chiefs followed behind him.
When they saw what was breaking through the air, the two of them were instantly scared out of their wits.
Whoosh!
Cedric quickly waved his hand, and a large brass book with a complicated lock appeared in front of him. There was a piece of leather paper clipped on the inside of the book that was somewhat uncoordinated.
Deto-
[Witchcraft — Ignite]
A bright red light wave spread out quickly.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
This wave of "Puppet Bombs" that fell from the sky exploded one after another in mid-air. It did not hurt the bastion at all. It was many times better than the defensive barrier used by the priests of the "Eternal Fire".
Just as the wizards who came to the top of the bastion cheered and rejoiced that their first seat countered the alchemy bombs with a simple witchcraft.
Elvin's expression did not change at all. He raised his hand again.
Rumble …
Hundreds of earth dragons under the soil seemed to be the tracks left by torpedoes when they broke through the water. The "Puppet Bomb" was obviously applicable not only in the sea and air, but also underground.
The breath of destruction shrouded the hearts of all the wizards.
It was as if he was determined to bury the entire High Cliff in one breath. All the evil alchemists felt their scalps tingle, and their expressions changed abruptly.
"When did we provoke this enemy?"
"How many alchemy bombs did they prepare? How much did it cost? "
"F * ck, can't afford it?!"
