Chapter 818: Intensifying
If the knights were considered the kings of solo combat in the Magus World, then the mages were the Magus Civilization’s specialists in mass destruction.
Sein’s mastery of magic, refined through years of relentless research, far exceeded the capabilities of ordinary Rank One mages.
During his Rank One days, he had relied heavily on the Verdant Flame Eye spell as his trump card.
Since advancing to Rank Two and deepening his research into pyro elemental energy, even the spells Sein had relied on during his Rank One stage could now deliver significantly higher damage.
With the aid of his Radiant Heart Magic Rod, Sein’s casting time was dramatically reduced, particularly for spells that harnessed the two special flames he had mastered—the Verdant Flame and the Everburning Violet Flame.
With these flames as core components and the enhancement provided by the Radiant Heart Magic Rod, the destructive power of his spells was greatly amplified.
“Falling Meteorite!”
“Solar Eye!”
“Fire Bats Mass Explosion!”
“Pyro Impact!”
The spells Sein unleashed were all area-of-effect magic with considerable destructive power.
Every pyro element spell cast by Sein carried his unique signature.
For instance, “Falling Meteorite” was a spell familiar to many Pyromancers and Geomancers, summoning a standard crimson meteorite that varied in size based on the mana expended.
However, Sein’s version was different. His “Falling Meteorite” was enveloped in verdant green and violet flames, exhibiting greater destructive power, larger coverage, and a shorter casting time.
In terms of casualties inflicted on the Wild Gorilla Army, Sein even outperformed his mother-in-law, Sia.
Such was the devastating might of magic!
In any interplanar war, creatures of Rank One were relatively rare, and those of Rank Two and above were even rarer.
The Divine Tower of Verdant Spring boasted thousands of full-fledged mages, but only about a hundred were Rank Two spellcasters.
Rank Three mages were even fewer, with their numbers not even reaching double digits.
The same was true for the approaching Wild Gorilla Army. Although they charged from all directions with a show of fierce valor, the majority were still below Rank One in strength.
In contrast, the Wild Gorilla soldiers who descended from the sky and possessed the ability to fly were generally at Rank One or higher.
It was no wonder these tendencies had instilled deep-seated fear and resistance throughout countless civilizations in the Astral Realm.
Yet, not all undead creatures were driven by such dark impulses.
Some possessed a peaceful nature, content to slumber for centuries in their tombs.
As long as they remained undisturbed, these creatures could live in near obscurity.
Sanchez, however, did not fit into this category.
The lively skeletal dragon had spent ages in slumber in the subspace on the Knight Continent and now loathed any force that might send it back to sleep.
As it arrived on the battlefield at the western front of the fortress base, Sanchez spread its massive, bone wings—spanning hundreds of meters—and darkened the sky, making an entrance far more dramatic than that of the petite Kingfisher.
For the Wild Gorilla Army, Sanchez was a thorn in their side.
The Wild Gorilla forces that were invading this time were not the weaklings previously encountered in the Sandstorm World and the Lavender Harmony Plane.
This time, they brought numerous demigod-level soldiers and several Rank Four or higher Gorilla Gods.
With Black Oblivion’s lead, Lorianne, and Milena joined the fray too.
Although Sein could not directly observe the clash between these powerful beings, he could see fiery clouds of three different colors raging in the distant sky.
The most intense battle zone was undoubtedly where Black Oblivion fought.
The flood dragon’s long, shadowy form coiled among stormy clouds, locked in combat with a particularly fierce Gorilla God.
Furious dragon roars echoed across the battlefield, reaching even Sein below at the base.
The arrival of the plant legion and skeletal troops eased the pressure on Sein’s side somewhat.
Yet, the Wild Gorilla Army’s assault only intensified.
The magic shield enveloping the fortress base flickered under the relentless onslaught.
Each time the shield dimmed, another wave of elite Wild Gorilla soldiers surged through.
While repelling attacks from two Rank Three Wild Gorillas amidst the chaos, Sein suddenly heard a deep, rumbling roar coming from the eastern side of the fortress.
It was a sound he recognized immediately—the distinctive roar of a certain dragon turtle.
