Age of Adepts

1002 Chapter 1002 - Family Battlefield

Wizarding World.

Scattered Tarin, Alois Region.

The Wizard War that took place between the Fabreth Family and the Crimson Family was still going on.

Since one side was a large wizard family while the other side had only just been promoted to a medium family in the past few years, the serious inequality of power between the two sides also made this wizard war to be fought on the Crimson Family's territory from the beginning.

At the beginning of the war, the Crimson Family had already occupied nearly 80% of the territory of the entire Iroquois region. But as the war progressed, the Crimson family gradually lost all their outer territories and resource points, and the family's power retreated back to the family's place of origin centered on the Flame Throne and the small town of Sonta.

It could be said that in terms of the situation, the Crimson Family had lost completely!

According to the usual rules of the witch war, at this point, the Fabreth Family could already stop and send representatives to negotiate with the Crimson Family on the issue of defeat compensation and territorial division. Although it is impossible for the Fabres family to annex all of the Crimson family's mundane territories and resource points, there is still no problem with receiving 60% of them as war reparations.

But what was strange was that even after pushing the Crimson Family back to the land less than 400 kilometers away from the family's origin, the Fabreth Family still had no intention of stopping. The sorcerers, apprentices, and mundane armies of both sides were fighting to a bloody end near the small city of Sonta, and had already destroyed three cities directly under the Crimson Family with a population of 30-50,000.

And in response to this kind of behavior that was seriously beyond the scope of the witch war, the past very active Scatterland Tallinn Association had surprisingly remained silent, seemingly acquiescing to what the Fabres family was doing.

The only reason for this situation was the 4th ranked wizard standing behind the Fabreth Family.

No one would dictate to a 4th rank wizard what he or she did.

In this bizarre land of the Sorcerer Continent, a 4th rank represented absolute power!

No sorcerer or an organization of sorcerers would want to stand against another 4th order sorcerer. Unless the two sides had a grudge that couldn't be resolved, a confrontation between 4th ranked witches would rarely happen. This was because the rest of the witches were too weak compared to the 4th rank witches.

If a confrontation did occur between two 4th ranked witches, it might be difficult for them to kill each other, but destroying the person or object that the other loved and the family power that the other had built up could not be easier.

It was under the fear of the rat that all the 4th ranked witches kept each other in check.

No one was willing to offend a long established 4th rank Alchemist for a new rising family with no backing or background. Therefore, with regard to what was happening in the Alois region, many wizard families or organizations were just silently watching and savoring it, but no one intervened.

There were also many small and medium sized Sorcerer Families or organizational forces that were willing to wave their flags and even charge the front line in order to please the Fabres Family. Therefore, in the face of the menacing enemy, the Crimson Wizards could only retreat again and again, eventually stabilizing the battle line at a place 120 kilometers south of the small town of Sonta.

The reason why the battle line was able to stabilize here was not due to the Crimson Sorcerers' great strength, but... the 4th stage Magic Puppet Dragon.

With the 4th stage Magic Armament Puppet Dragon as their core battle force, along with hundreds of goblin chariots, and 3 floating giant ships, plus thousands of metal magic weapons... maintaining such a huge army of magic weapons, the amount of magic crystals that the Crimson Family was losing on a daily basis was incredibly high.

If it wasn't for the extensive application of the Magical Melting Furnace, which solved the energy supply problems of several of the big guys themselves, I'm afraid that the loss of magic crystals alone would have been enough to bankrupt the Crimson Family!

But even so, the goblin chariots and metal weapons still need a huge supply of magical energy. Therefore, with the family's place of origin at their back, after recharging their energy once, their active attack range can only reach 120 kilometers.

If the enemy cuts off the energy supply line beyond this range, I'm afraid that the last power belonging to the Crimson Family will have the possibility of a complete collapse.

Of course, the outnumbered Fabreth Family was not willing to be blocked by a 'small' Crimson Family, so they frequently sent teams of sorcerers to break into the vicinity of the small city of Sonta. Or poisoning, or breaking war facilities, or slaughtering the Crimson Family's leaders... All kinds of tactics, but all of them had brought huge losses in personnel and resources to the Crimson Family.

The Crimson Family, unwilling to wait for death, had the small town of Song Tower as a solid backing, so naturally they were able to confront the other side with all their might.

The other side's witches dared to barge in and attack, kill and destroy, then the Crimson witches dared to ambush in secret, depleting the Fabres Family's witches' numbers bit by bit. In particular, the worm witch Billis, the magical woman Emelia, the dragon witch Winyl, and the vampires under Mary were the most impressive performers.

After years of bloody witch wars, the unsung Winrielle had managed to advance to the 2nd rank, becoming a powerful bloodline witch capable of transforming into a 2nd rank fire dragon. If it wasn't for the time limit of the transformation, I'm afraid that Wenliel would be able to immediately crush several of the old 2nd rank within the family, becoming the first person in the 2nd rank witch.

She was also the only one of the Crimson Witch who encountered a 3rd rank enemy witch and still had the confidence to kill the 2nd rank with her own strength to return to the family compound.

As for the other Emelia, she was also the one who had been promoted to 2nd rank during this witch war.

And her current form had also changed drastically compared to earlier.

After completely fusing the soul of the Demon Spore Princess, Emelia also had both the soul origin of a human witch and the Demon Spore clan. Now, apart from the part above her waist, which still retained the form of a human girl, her lower limbs had completely transformed into the form of a Demon Spore similar to an octopus.

People called her the Demoness purely because she was able to transform into the Demon Plant form at will, becoming a humanoid demonic plant that could walk upright.

As long as she was in an area covered in green vegetation, she was the equivalent of a carnivorous magic plant with the 'Passive Invisibility' and 'Visual Evasion' effects enabled. Furthermore, her natural instinctive 'Demonic Spore Infestation' was able to control all life forms that were infected by demonic spores.

Therefore, witches who fought her often faced the horrible situation of losing control of their own body parts.

Compared to these two rising stars, Worm Witch Billis was as powerful and evil as ever!

In the head bounty list released by the Fabreus Family, Worm Witch Billis even overshadowed the 3rd level Blood Queen Mary, becoming the highest on the list and the Crimson Witch that the other party wanted to kill the most.

Ever since the Fabreth Family and Crimson Family started the Witch War, more than twenty Fabreth Wizards have died at the hands of Worm Witch Billis. Although the vast majority of them were only rank 1 witches, it was still an unbearable blow to the Fabreth Family.

In order to kill this Insect Witch Billis, the Fabreth Family had also racked their brains.

Unfortunately, Billies with a Worm Swarm Billet was just so hard to deal with.

When encountering a fellow witch or an opponent who was too strong, Billis would dodge as long as he could, never bumping into an opponent of equal strength. However, once he encountered a low-ranked Worm Witch on a mission, Worm Witch Billis was more ferocious than ever.

Wherever Worm Witch Billis passed, there was literally not a blade of grass to be seen!

Wizards...kill, drain all their essence to nourish themselves!

Apprentice...kill, and dump a full bellyful for the Bug Generals!

Ordinary warriors...killed and used as placentas to incubate the flesh and blood of the bug army!

A worm witch like him, who could only rely on killing to evolve, was simply like a fish out of water when it came to war and immediately exploded with twelve thousand passions. Other wizards still needed to return to their quarters for supplies and rest after a battle, but he, on the other hand, spent night and day shuttling from battlefield to battlefield, looking for any opportunity to attack the enemy.

When he encountered a wizard who came to snipe at him, Billis fled as fast as he could, even if he had to abandon thousands of insect troops to do so. The flesh and blood of his enemies was his incubator, and their lives were his energy source... He was like a killing machine that never knew how to tire, either killing in the battlefield or on his way to the killing field!

Facing such a ferocious and cunning guy, the Fabreth family also had a headache.

Even for him, the Fabreth family sent a 3rd level sorcerer to participate in the siege, but unfortunately, he still escaped with a broken tail, abandoning most of the insect army and all the demonic mantis to slip away.

However, after half a month, using the flesh and lives of the Fabreth Family's sorcerers, Insect Witch Billis was once again active on the battlefield, unable to see the mess and unbearable situation he was in during his last miserable escape.

For this reason, the Fabres Family had repeatedly raised the bounty on Worm Witch Billis' head, also allowing him to successfully overwhelm Mary and rise to the top of the must-kill list.

Apart from these core 2 ranks, the ones that still performed well were those vampire witches.

Being able to transform into bats and demons to increase their mobility or evade enemy pursuit, being able to suck the enemy's blood to replenish their own energy loss, as well as possessing the incomparable ability to sneak and hide... These abilities combined together made the vampire witches into bloody assassins who could fight and replenish.

They were instructed to travel all over the battlefield, and once they found a target to attack, they would immediately call on their friends and quickly gather up a far greater number of witches than the other side, and then raid in a big way.

Don't look at them as if they were usually so cautious and timid, but once they rushed into the battlefield, they were all as fierce as human warriors. They have no fear of physical trauma and are willing to fight with their enemies in exchange for injuries, which is the most difficult part of Vampire Shamans.

If it wasn't for their weak elemental strength and lack of sharpness in attacks, I'm afraid that their killing power would be no less than that of a solo 2nd stage witch.

At least in this Sorcerer War, the vampire group had also beheaded more than a dozen enemy sorcerers, and their numbers even overshadowed those of 2nd-ranked Dragon Zacha and Goblin Tigure.

It couldn't be helped, after all, Dragon Zacha and Goblin Tigure were only good at large scale position battles.

In this kind of wandering encounter, they were both incapable of leaving each other behind and were themselves easily targeted by the enemy with a purpose, so it was really very difficult to capture heads!
