Age of Adepts

Chapter 1436 - Battle for the Ramp

There is no forgiveness or mercy in the surface wars!

There is no possibility of reconciliation and coexistence between the invaders on one side and the defenders of the homeland on the other.

Either the invaders defeated the homeland defenders and became the new ruling class of the world, or the homeland defenders annihilated all the invaders and succeeded in retaining their ruling position... there was no other way out!

Therefore, facing the menacing Calamity creatures, the Sorcerer's Association was also forced to use its own card power, a large number of demonic constructs and metal puppets.

Of course, in this regard, the Sorcerer's Association was absolutely unable to match the Silver Alliance.

The main reason why the Silver Alliance chose the western part of the continent to establish their roots was that most of the Wizard Continent's rare minerals were richly concentrated there. They were able to excavate, quench, and transform nearby, and were able to create a puppet kingdom that the world would be amazed by.

Dealing with the onslaught of demonic tides, other witch organizations had to be trembling and cautious, and a single moment of inattention would cause a tidal wave of beasts to flood into the human kingdom they were guarding, weakening the organization's foundation and future.

The Silver Alliance was the only one that was so tough and strong that it pulled out an entire legion of puppets to fight the assembled forest kings head on, blocking the mountainous and sea-like tide of beasts from advancing to the edge of the Black Forest.

If it wasn't for the fact that the puppet army couldn't fight away from the energy pool, I'm afraid that the Silver Alliance would have dared to take the puppet army into the interior of the Black Forest and give the demon kings a plow and kill them.

As for the invasion incident within the Silver Alliance, it was even more under the suppression of the powerful puppet legion, which could only make small local ripples. Once the Puppet Legion suppressed the invasion, those exotic invaders were unable to resist the tidal wave of demon statue armies and revitalized construct forces.

The strength of the Silver Alliance could also be seen from this!

But, success or failure is a devil statue!

It's true that they are unstoppable, but they are too big, too heavy, and too slow to move. As the defending force in the territory, with plenty of energy and load carriers, the Demon Statue Army was able to display its terrifying power to destroy mountains and shake mountains.

But once they left the territory ruled by the Silver Alliance, without the astonishing number of floating airships as carriers and the energy pools scattered all over the place as energy supplements, the mighty power of the Demon Statue Army would be greatly reduced!

As the number one wizard organization in the wizard world, the Wizard Association was able to crush the remaining two major wizard organizations in terms of overall strength. However, it was still far inferior to the Silver Alliance in terms of the technology of constructing magic statues.

Without such superb statue building skills and an abundance of rare mineral resources, the Sorcerer's Association was unable to create their own legion of statues, so they had to adopt a simplified version of the Magic Armor Warrior.

It was a hollow pair of steel armor that had been demonized and was able to perform all kinds of combat actions according to the wizard's wishes.

Such a magical armor warrior is loyal and brave, and it is extremely easy to use.

Probably the only desperate point was - the lack of defense!

The demon statues created by the Silver Alliance were all exceptionally heavy solid metal puppets, even their metal arms were a meter thick. Even if you don't use any weapons, swinging your fist to hit any creature is not stingy enough to be struck by a siege hammer.

The Wizard Association's Magic Armor Warriors, on the other hand, were hollow inside, and while this saved a lot of metal materials, it also caused their defenses to plummet.

Under normal circumstances, the Sorcerer's Association would send out the most large number of Witch Beasts in a bit war, and these Magic Armor Warriors existed solely as guards for the Witch Tower.

But now, the Witch Beasts were extremely susceptible to being 'seduced' by the other side when facing a powerful Calamity Lord with strange infestation abilities. Thus, the Association could only allow the Witch Beasts to retreat to the second line, while allowing this assembled unit of magical armor warriors to be the vanguard of the assault on the Murky Abyss Valley.

Having just suffered a head-on blow from the witches, the alienated beasts that had come through the spatial rift were restrained by the calamity creatures from surging out of the Murky Valley, but instead entrenched in the depths of the mist, silently waiting for the moment when the chain of spatial rules around the spatial rift would break.

After all, the Sorcerer World was also a large location that possessed an astonishing number of powerful sorcerers. When they were aggregated, even the calamity creatures that had scourged so many multi-dimensional worlds were somewhat overwhelmed.

After all, they were invaders here, and would always be suppressed by the laws of the bit plane, making it difficult for them to exert their full strength. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been the absurd scene of a 5th stage calamity lord being killed on the spot by a 4th stage sorcerer.

The lower-ranked Calamity creatures might not be afraid of death, but the higher-ranked Calamity creatures also possessed spiritual intelligence and consciousness that was no weaker than any intelligent race. They were 'delicate', and of course wanted to run and take advantage of them when they had an advantage, but once they discovered that there were powerful existences that could threaten and kill them hidden within the target plane, they immediately wimped out.

These Calamity Little Lords, who were all Level 5 creatures in their own right, were like a bunch of greedy bears, coveting the honeycomb in the tree cave. If there were only bees in the hive, they would want to poke their heads in and gorge themselves even if it meant getting stung a few times.

But if there is a venomous snake in the hive that threatens to kill them, then losing their lives for a few mouthfuls of food is not worth it.

The four small Lords of Calamity who had retreated back to the bottom of the Earth Rift Canyon were now in a dilemma as well.

Advancing, there were a large number of incredibly powerful sorcerers gathered above, taking turns rushing up to besiege them, even a calamity small lord like them would be hard to bear. Retreating, outside the spatial rift, the boss of several Calamity Small Lords, that 6th Order Calamity Lord Dilmas, was guarding there.

If the few of them returned without success, with Dilmas's temperament, he would definitely pick an unlucky person at random and eat them alive to punish them for their cowardice and failure!

In such a dilemma, the four Little Lords of Calamity could only desperately dispatch a huge herd of beasts from their own different dimension, hoping that they could rely on them to defend the gorge, waiting for the moment when the chain of space rules would be loosened.

As for rushing out to fight with the witches, as long as the legendary fire witch was still guarding the exit of the canyon, they would be suicidal to think that way.

That legendary fire witch was so huge that it was almost impossible to squeeze into the canyon. This way, without his strong support, the remaining super-powerful ones who dared to enter would have to face the combined attack of the four Little Lords of Calamity.

It was really possible that if this stalemate continued, their constant erosion and contamination of the spatial rift below could drag time to the moment when the spatial rift was able to hold the 5th rank power.

Once that moment really arrived, the four calamity small lords that could fully exert their power would absolutely sweep through the entire Sorcerer World in a devastating manner. Those so-called strong Sorcerers would have to hide back in the Sorcerer's Tower, trembling and surviving inside.

At that time, I'm afraid that the major Sorcerer organizations would only be spared, and all the territories and resource points would be lost to the Calamity creatures.

If this really happened, even if they had to sell their iron, the major Sorcerer organizations would have to use their last resort to plead with the great Sorcerers who had left the Sorcerer World to return from the depths of the Star Ocean.

After leaving the Sorcerer World and severing most of their ties with the Sorcerer Plane, it was unknown whether those Great Sorcerers would still be willing to risk their lives to return to help.

Even if those great sorcerers were willing to return to their aid, both sides were suppressed at the same level of power within the Sorcerer's World, and it was a huge unknown whether or not those great sorcerers would be able to repel the Calamity Lords' attack.

It was precisely because both sides had reasons not to retreat, and an exceptionally bloody offensive battle inevitably broke out.

............

The first Demon Armor Warrior Thousand Team put into the Moabuchi Valley Grounds, and it only took half a day for the entire army to be wiped out.

The entire underground area of the Mo Yuan Valley was filled with ten thousand heads, beasts crowding beasts and beast after beast, it had almost become a monster jungle of alienated beasts stacked on top of each other.

The legions of Magic Armor Warriors had only advanced five hundred meters before they were blocked by the raging alienation beasts on the slopes. The two sides engaged in a fight to the death there, and the final result was that the alienated beasts took out the Magic Armor Thousand Troops with fifty thousand casualties.

Just when the first Magic Armor Troop lost everything, the second Troop trampled through the blood and mud, pushing through the wreckage of the armor and the broken bodies of the beasts in their way, and rushed step by step into the slope of death.

And this time, they were followed by a team of nearly a hundred sorcerers, clear elemental sorcerers.

When the second Magic Armor Thousand Team once again fought with the alienated beasts, violent and terrifying elemental fluctuations flooded in the rear, and then like a torrential rain, elemental sorcery began to wildly wreak havoc throughout the battlefield front.

The violent lightning storms like thunder, the sharp earth spears that sprang up from the ground, the swirling tornadoes wrapped in countless wind blades, the ice blades and snow swords that fell from the sky, and the large area of pale green poisonous clouds....

The sorcerers' attacks did not deliberately avoid the magical armor warriors, but threw them as hard as they could at the most densely populated areas of all the alienated beasts.

Under the sweep of the violent sorcery, not to mention the flesh-and-blood alienated beasts, even the Magic Armor Warriors with their steel bodies and the sturdy and anti-demon runes painted inside their shells were unable to withstand such a level of sorcery attacks.

Hundreds of alienated beasts fell dead at the front of the battlefield, their corpses completely crushed and torn apart by the violent sorcery, turning into a mass of unrecognizable scattered corpses or blood stains all over the ground. The slopes of the Rift Valley that had absorbed the monsters' blood and water were then trampled on by a pair of heavy and solid iron footboards, quickly becoming extremely sticky and slippery.

But all of this apparently did not prevent the cannon fodder of the two different worlds from continuing to fight bravely and courageously to the death!

Thus, the next batch of dissimilar beasts continued to emerge, crashing into the magical armor warriors who were trampling on the corpses and blood sauce, before a berserk sorcery descended from the sky, once again turning the battlefield into a bloody and cruel slaughterhouse.

The sorcerer's side relied on the sorcery to clear the field, and the magical armor warriors steadily advanced down the slope a little.
