The final black tide eruption was extrely fast.
The black waves that previously needed several months to travel from the Abyssal Eye to the two continents were now almost being pushed forward by an invisible giant hand.
Ocean current movent patterns were completely inapplicable to the current speed of the black tide's movent. After the Stargate Council's observation point closest to the Abyssal Eye sent out a signal, only three minutes passed before the second observation point issued a warning signal.
These two warnings spread at maximum speed to the Red Sea and the far north.
Fortunately, ever since Saul and Gorsa began cultivating red worms, the two front lines against the black tide had been in a state of alert.
After receiving the warnings, they imdiately entered maximum alert status.
Currently, the Red Sea had one fourth-rank wizard from the Tribunal—Elo.
The Sighing Wall was guarded by Floco.
Although the bone army Saul had cultivated couldn't be brought out to increase combat power for the two locations, under Keli's leadership they had attracted the attention of quite a few anchor point monsters, reducing so pressure on the front lines.
In less than a day, the latest black tide had reached the warning periters of both factions.
anwhile, Saul remained stationed on Stat Continent, but he had co to the location of the ultra-long-distance teleportation array.
To provide tily support to the Sighing Wall, the Stargate Council and Tribunal had jointly funded the construction of another ultra-long-distance teleportation array in another location in Dwarf Valley.
Now, as long as Saul wanted, he could instantly reach either front line.
Saul was stationed here so he could rush to the scene imdiately when anchor point monsters appeared anywhere.
Of course, if large numbers of anchor points appeared in both locations, Saul alone definitely wouldn't be able to provide rescue in ti.
But they weren't really just waiting for passive defense in place.
After the Stargate Council received the black tide eruption warning, Byron and the half-elf had already set out with red worms.
They would head near the Abyssal Eye and directly surround it with red worms that could resist anchor point monsters, preventing anchor points from running everywhere.
When the Abyssal Eye completely opened, that would be the mont for Frim to take the stage controlling Sky City.
According to the wizard world's plan, this eruption of the Abyssal Eye would be the final strike of resurrection and would definitely use all its strength.
The three major factions of the wizard world were also cooperating fully for the first ti.
As long as they weathered this crisis, the abyss that couldn't resurrect would ultimately et its end of annihilation, and the entire wizard world would be saved.
At the Sighing Wall, Maria stood at the highest patrol point, calmly facing the sea breeze as she gazed toward the ocean.
The sea had already changed from deep blue to ink blue, while the distant horizon was pitch black.
The scattered wizard towers standing in the distance, along with the wizards standing on them, were all their most steadfast warriors.
And this ti, besides the Sighing Wall's own wizards, they had so additional allies.
The rmaid Coral with rose-red long hair was sitting cross-legged beside Maria.
She was a ssenger Floco had stationed here.
Originally, after learning about the commotion rmaids had caused at the Red Sea, Maria didn't trust rmaids. But Saul had inford Maria that Floco was their ally.
Out of trust in Saul, Maria also accepted the rmaids' help.
Now the rmaid clan was responsible for monitoring information in the sea, while the Sighing Wall's wizards watched the sea surface.
At the sa ti, rmaids who could move normally in the black tide would also be responsible for rescuing wizards who fell into the black tide due to pollution.
anwhile, wizards on the sea surface would also try their best to protect the rmaids, who weren't very powerful in combat.
At this mont, Coral suddenly spoke. "Wizard Maria, Lord Floco says the black tide has arrived."
Maria nodded and raised her hand to release a light circle toward the sky. This light circle continuously expanded as it rose in altitude, gradually becoming a halo that everyone could see, suspended high above the Sighing Wall.
This halo represented level one alert.
Less than a minute after the halo rose into the sky, the First Wizard Tower farthest from the continent suddenly fired a shot toward the ocean.
The cannon ignored wind resistance and ocean resistance, directly entering the black waves over ten ters high and accurately hitting the rotting monster hidden inside.
The Sighing Wall officially fired the first shot in resisting the black tide!
...
On the other side of the world, the Red Sea had engaged with the black tide even earlier.
Defenses surrounding half the continent rose up. Nearly all wizards from the Tribunal, Evernight Empire, and Black Fla Empire had co to the Red Sea coast.
Through the Tribunal's deliberate propaganda, people on Nephret Continent all knew this battle was different from previous ones.
In previous battles, if they lost, it ant parts of the continent would disappear, and people's living areas would decrease.
But if this battle failed, Nephret Continent would be completely pulled into the abyss of destruction.
Many people didn't know about the Abyssal Eye's existence, but this didn't prevent them from understanding that the black tide was an existence capable of destroying the world.
Thousands of wizards fought on the ocean and against rotting monsters in the waves.
The dense Red Sea Tree forest tried hard to absorb pollution from the ocean, not letting the coastal land suffer erosion.
Mido worked hard to coordinate all Red Sea Trees, adjusting their work efficiency according to different black tide pollution intensities, making each Red Sea Tree's lifespan longer and pollution absorption ability stronger.
In the sea area before her, Wizard Royer and the successfully resurrected Wizard Stuart personally guarded here, not letting any monsters break through the defense line to harm Mido.
Evernight Emperor Alexandra stood on the cliff behind Mido, responsible for all logistics coordination.
This ti, he would stand together with his sister until victory or the final mont arrived.
Their position was at the continent's tip. The flas Royer released into the ocean didn't extinguish but instead transford into shark-like creatures with sharp teeth, attacking every rotting monster that tried to approach the Red Sea Tree forest and Mido.
Stuart beside him seed to stand motionless in place, but soon his head looked around in a circle. All the places he looked at turned up monsters, and these monsters seed to lose their original targets and began attacking each other.
"Hey, Stuart, do you still have that whip your boss gave you last ti?"
Stuart raised his right hand. "Yes, but I won't use it lightly."
"I don't need you to use it lightly—just protect Mido at critical monts." Royer smiled carelessly. "As for us, life or death doesn't matter."
Once anchor point monsters appeared, they were counting on Mido to contact Saul to co over imdiately.
Forr Chief Frim now had other tasks and had already left Nephret Continent, while current Chief Elo was responsible for the southwestern coast's defensive arrays and wouldn't leave the defense center unless extre circumstances arose.
Currently, the Tribunal's numbers and high-rank wizard count weren't as many as before, but they had to resist an even more powerful black tide.
They could only hope that Frim and Saul's plan would succeed.
Stuart didn't turn back, only firmly promised, "Don't worry. Unless I die first, I won't let Mido suffer the slightest harm."
At this mont, Mido, who had been the focus of everyone's attention and discussion, suddenly trembled. Royer imdiately stopped attacking and rushed to Mido's side like a caregiver.
"Mido, what's wrong?"
Mido said to Royer in a cute, young girl's voice: "Anchor point monsters just appeared at the Sighing Wall. Lord Saul has already rushed over."
Royer's heart tightened. Now that Saul had gone to the Sighing Wall, if anchor point monsters appeared at the Red Sea now, Saul definitely couldn't arrive in ti.
He imdiately returned to Stuart's side. "Anchor points appeared at the far north first. Get ready. If anchor point monsters appear here too, I'll go up and hold them off first."
Stuart tensed his face. "I'll let you rest in peace."
Royer: "Damn!"
