Chapter 391: Chapter 11 Battle Group’s First Battle
“Blow up this forest?”
Upon hearing this command, the Fire Lizard was stunned.
Although the mbers of the Fire Lizard Battle Group were all Blood Tax, their combat power had not diminished because of it.
On the contrary, they trained harder than normal Fire Lizards in day-to-day practice.
The teachings of their elders told them that on the battlefield, their own strength was the only thing they could rely on.
And these people were the elite of the Blood Tax.
They had been selected to join the battle group and then trained by a top-ranking Silver Horn Noble.
They were dressed in the most powerful armor and ard with terrifying weapons they had never seen before.
They had thought they were about to enter an unprecedented, dreadful battlefield to fight creatures more ferocious than those in myths and legends.
But now, Richard was actually asking them to blow up a forest.
“What’s the matter? Do you have a problem?” Richard asked with a slight frown.
Obedience was the soldier’s duty, and he didn’t need a group of soldiers questioning his commands.
“No problem, sir,” the Fire Lizard responded loudly.
Although they had so doubts about Richard’s orders, their five years of training had taught them not to ask why.
Soldiers just needed to follow orders.
Richard nodded, “Good, be careful. You’re going to have a tough battle ahead.”
Soon, the Fire Lizards divided into five teams as per the combat company. Three teams lined up in order, while two teams served as guards for the shooting squads.
The Fire Lizards aid their Fireball Guns at the dense forest ahead, and under the command of the company commander, they began their Magic Concentrated Fire.
“First Company ready, fire!”
In an instant, a hundred fireballs, each with an energy level of 300, shot into the dense forest, the crimson flas almost engulfing it.
Before the glow had even faded, the Second Company commander shouted, “Second Company, fire!”
The next mont, another hundred fireballs fell into the dense forest.
This ti, the red light beca even brighter. In the elent-enriched environnt created by the first batch of Fireball Technique, the power of the second batch was significantly enhanced.
Soon, the third batch of fireballs also fell into the forest.
This ti, a huge fla erupted, a small Fire Elent Storm coiling like a python through the blaze, instantly carbonizing several giant trees.
But it wasn’t over yet. Since the Fourth and Fifth Companies hadn’t participated in the shooting, their Fireball Guns were naturally handed over to the shooting team.
With each shout from the First Company commander, the fourth and fifth batches of fireballs fell into the forest.
anwhile, the Fireball Guns from the first batch had already completed their spell cooldowns.
The cycle had begun.
Boom, boom, boom…
The roar of the spells echoed in the ears of the Fire Lizards, but beneath this mighty sound, so Fire Lizards sharply detected sothing amiss.
The ground beneath their feet seed to be trembling.
“Sothing’s beneath us! Dodge!”
With a sowhat shrill alarm, a huge vine whip burst forth from the ground, instantly knocking a Fire Lizard who couldn’t dodge in ti.
“Don’t panic! Continue firing!”
The First Company commander bellowed, turning his head to delegate the directing of the firing to his deputy, while he himself drew his scimitar and charged toward the vine.
With a swish!
The scimitar unsheathed, instantly igniting a layer of golden flas.
A surge of energy erupted from the company commander, his arm muscles bulging.
He swung his sword.
The sharp blade traced a transparent streak through the air, followed by a piercing sound of wind by everyone’s ears.
This cut had split the air like butter, leaving a vacuum trail.
Boom!
The huge vine collapsed with a crash, the golden flas spreading from the break point along the falling vine.
But this was just a beginning.
Before the company commander could sheath his sword, the ground kept trembling, and several new vine whips tore through the earth and surfaced.
Accompanying them were countless smaller vines, sprouting from the large vines like tentacles, each swing producing a fine blade of wind.
“Attention everyone, activate combat mode!”
Following the command of the company commander, a buzzing sound suddenly filled the battlefield.
Golden patterns began to appear on the Fire Lizards’ single soldier armor, and although the outer shell of the armor was coated with a green camouflage layer, it couldn’t hide the intense gold light.
Energy flowed like blood through the armor’s filigree.
And when these filigree patterns were fully lit, the armor ca to life.
Swhish, swhish, swhish…
The dense sounds of drawing swords filled the battlefield, the next mont, the roaring of the wind sounded like dragon roars through the forest.
Hundreds of swords swung in unison, their slashes nearly forming a wall of wind, the vines’ wind blades crashing against it like waves but the wall stood firm like a rock.
Richard watched quietly from a distance.
“Not bad, your Fire Lizard Battle Group looks pretty good,” Ulysses comnted, unable to resist praising the performance of the Fire Lizard Battle Group.
“Of course,” Richard replied with a hint of pride in his smile, “These Fire Lizards are the elite among their kind. They wear armor and wield weapons produced by the famous Alchemy Master of the Fire Lizard Empire, incorporating techniques from both Wizard and Giant Dragon Alchemy.
Moreover, these Fire Lizards have also learned the ‘Standard Battle Skills’ created from integrating all the advanced combat skills of Fire Lizard Empire on New World Island.
It would be unreasonable if they weren’t strong.”
“So when do we go in?” Ulysses asked, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the Elental Storm ravaging the dense forest, “That thing has already started calling the Insect Tide.”
“It’s already started to summon?” A flicker of surprise crossed Richard’s face, “Then let’s go now.”
“Slow down the shooting, slow down the shooting,” Richard said as he took out a crystal ball.
After speaking, Richard and Ulysses suddenly disappeared. When they reappeared, they were in a dense forest.
Booming thunderous noises resounded by Richard’s ears, and a raging fire elent storm nearly carbonized his dragon scales.
The continuous explosions of the Fireball Technique provided an unending force for the fire elent storm, and it did not care whether you were a Wizard or a World Tree Subbody.
No matter who you were, you’d have to suffer a slap from it.
Magic power surged within Richard, and a golden light imdiately emanated from the dragon scales on his body. In front of him, Ulysses had transford into a black and blue firebird.
His body had completely turned to elents, just like many Shaping Wizards.
Boom!
Suddenly thunder struck behind Richard.
The World Tree Subbody finally noticed these two third-level creatures constantly approaching it.
The surrounding Guardian Forest uprooted themselves and bravely faced the fire elent storm, rushing toward Richard.
In an instant, several flaming treants appeared in the dense woods.
Just like the Soviets countering at Stalingrad, even if their branches turned to ash and their trunks to char, these treants would stop Richard and his companion from advancing.
“I’ll handle them.”
Ulysses suddenly changed direction, and the blue-black flas on his body turned completely black.
The fire elents in the firestorm flowed into him like a torrent at his call, swiftly expanding him into a pitch-black flaming beast.
With a flick of his wings, the violent black flas instantly turned several approaching treants into torches.
“Good.”
With a solemn expression, Richard waved his magic wand, and a howling gust of wind instantly ford around him, drastically increasing his speed.
However, this wind not only accelerated Richard but also drew in the elental flas surrounding him.
The scorching air felt like hot coal, and the elental flas continued to erode Richard’s Vajra Body, growing more intense.
Richard held his breath and waved his magic wand, continually casting acceleration spells on himself.
At that mont, he was less than ten ters away from the World Tree Subbody.
Bang!
Richard felt as though he had hit a wall, the massive impact dazing him slightly.
The flas on his body had vanished, and an invisible barrier isolated the World Tree Subbody and the surrounding firestorm.
Facing this third-level creature that had rushed up to it, the World Tree Subbody felt very perplexed.
This creature did not have the capabilities to kill it.
It posed less of a threat than those little ones outside.
Though puzzled, the World Tree Subbody did not intend to let go of this fertilizer that had co knocking.
Even the weakest third-level creatures were still third-level creatures, and their life energy was pri nourishnt for it.
Delicate roots erged from deep underground, stretching toward Richard like tentacles.
But before its roots could extend far, it sensed a powerful presence appearing out of nowhere.
“Level 4 creature?”
The word “Level 4 Creature” suddenly popped into the “mind” of the World Tree Subbody.
mories from its bloodline gave it an instant understanding of level 4 creatures, including strategies to deal with them.
[Hold firm, call for the mother body]
Faced with this plan, the World Tree Subbody chose to comply.
A call travelled along the bloodline to the World Tree in the Inner World.
But what it t was silence.
In the Inner World, the World Tree looked at Garon the Great Wizard in shock and anger.
“Outsider, what have you done?”
Garon the Great Wizard touched his head with a weird laugh and replied, “Heh heh heh, didn’t do much, just added a space anchor to give you a bit of difficulty manipulating space.
Little sapling, stop ssing with your crude rules.
Now you only have one option, and that is to kill here.
Otherwise, wait to beco the handle of my magic wand.”
The World Tree looked at the giant creature before it and suddenly felt a trace of fear inside.
It suddenly realized that bringing this creature into the Inner World was a wrong decision.
…
In the outer world, enormous fungal tentacles reached out from a space rift, burrowing into the ground.
Without Shaping Wizards to break the energy barrier for the World Mushroom this ti, it had to resort to another plan—starting from the roots to capture the World Tree Subbody.
No matter how strong the World Tree’s energy barrier was, it couldn’t protect the entire root system. Once the roots were cut off, the World Mushroom could use its unreasonable strength to pull out the World Tree Subbody.
The World Tree Subbody continued to fight the World Mushroom with its roots, adhering to the strategy of holding firm.
But the mother body it awaited never appeared.
Finally, after nearly half an hour of struggle, the World Tree’s roots were defeated.
The World Mushroom pulled the World Tree Subbody out of the ground and dragged it into the Secret Realm.
At this mont, the fine buzzing of the Insect Tide was already echoing through the forest. Richard shouted to Ulysses, who was still massacring heartily in the firestorm:
“Ulysses, open the space rift, bring that group of Fire Lizards back to the Secret Realm.
The Insect Tide is coming!”
After speaking, he imdiately opened the Secret Realm rift, diving into the Secret Realm.
Although the Insect Tide was formidable, as long as they hid in the Secret Realm, even Wizard Apprentices wouldn’t be hard.
