Chapter 750: The Dark Lord and the Sage Revolution (XIV)

The next morning.

The sky above the Vaal River was covered with dark clouds, and the wind smelled of burning war.

[Fort Lele] stands majestically on the river bank. The solid stone walls and bridges are like the last barrier of the Kailasel family, separating the northern and southern continents.

The atmosphere inside and outside the fortress was extremely solemn. The 700 family Aurors lined up nervously for defense, their red robes fluttering in the wind, their wands clenched tightly, but their eyes could not hide the faint fear.

The success or failure of this bridgehead fortress will determine the final outcome of the entire Siege of Letherien.

Inside the fortress, Calvin Kelasel was in charge personally. Wearing a red robe embroidered with gold snake patterns, he stood on the fortress's watchtower, his eyes fixed on the enemies who were ready to move in the dense forest in the distance.

His face was tense, his hands tightly grasped the amulet, and he was extremely anxious.

Five days ago, the theory of ten wins and ten losses was in my favor. I kept saying that the Dark Lord had no chance at all. As long as I persisted a little longer, the Dark Lord would eventually be expelled.

Five days later, the Emerald Witch led the team to break through the defense line, the siege collapsed, the Auror class retreated, and after a hundred years of hard work in the family sandbox, they lost to the newbie in the final.

The entire battle can be summarized as follows:
Calvin Kelsera: "Trust me, we will defend to the death!"

Auror class: "I don't believe it. I'm defeated."

As the Auror Commander of the Naga Ring, Calvin created a historical pillar of shame for himself.

He will be nailed to it for the rest of his life, and he will be nailed firmly and hung securely, making people laugh for the rest of their lives.

What made Calvin Kelsera feel most uncomfortable was that the resources of the magic network were rapidly depleting, which made him feel suffocated. The powerful network that once supported the rule of the Kailasel family was now in tatters.

The previous mockery of the Dark Lord's march had no chance at all, the Emerald Witch was nothing more than a lunatic.

After being beaten, Camille Sifani is really strong, she is a real witch.

It’s not that they suddenly became enlightened, but they realized that if they continued to be stubborn, they would lose the chance to escape.

At this moment, opposite [Fort Lele], the Dark Lord's army has completed its final deployment.

Camille Schiffini stood in the center of the front line, her emerald green hair fluttering slightly in the wind, her eyes sharp.

The eight personality masks were distributed in the marching array, each leading the black magician's team to prepare.

This is not just an attack, it is a thorough encirclement and destruction.

"Advance step by step and break down their last bit of resistance!"

The thinker leads the command team to quickly implement the tactics on the sand table into the battlefield layout.

By weakening the enemy's magic network and accurately calculating the terrain around Lele Fortress, she formulated a tactical plan of "segmented suppression and gradual siege".

In front of the bridge outside the fortress, the Challenger Personality Mask personally led the first wave of assault teams. Wearing a red combat robe, she raised her magic wand high, and her cold eyes swept over the black magicians who were ready to go behind her.

Her voice is like a war drum, and she always leads the charge.

The dark magicians responded loudly, and hundreds of wizards chanted the Ouroboros spell together. The silver-white magic power surged like a tide, impacting the shield of the Lele Fortress. The rays of light were like sharp blades, piercing through the dark clouds above the fortress.

The first wave of offensive kicked off the battle.

Inside the fortress, Calvin watched the shield vibrate, his eyes red, and he shouted:

"Open fire! Golems line up, hold off their attack!"

Under his command, the defenders released a series of blazing six-ring magics, and lightning, fire, and ice blades raged wildly on the battlefield.

However, facing the Dark Lord's advance, the Aurors gradually showed signs of fatigue.

The second echelon is led by the Peacemaker personality mask, who is responsible for guiding the large force to advance steadily and disperse enemy firepower.

She stood in the rear, commanding the battlefield in a gentle but firm voice:

"Stand apart and keep the front line stable. Follow-up teams will provide additional firepower to the front line. Don't let the enemy find a breakthrough point."

At this time, the melancholic personality asked inappropriately:

"You are a pacifist, and you command in such an orderly manner. Do you have a misunderstanding about 'kill all the enemies'?"

The Peacemaker smiled:
"No, the true meaning of peace is to leave no opponents behind."

The depressed man hung his head in dejection, and said with compassion:
“What if there are too many casualties on the front line?”

The peacemaker said calmly:

"Casualties are our final mission progress. Once we complete it, we win."

While the two personalities were talking, when the first wave of the Dark Lord's march tore open the outer wall of the fortress, Camille, wearing the mask of the Perfectionist main personality, had led the elite team to break through to the south side of the fortress and began to disintegrate the enemy's magic support nodes with a clear goal.

Her voice was cold and precise: "Lock on their magic network resource hub and completely cut off the energy supply of the reinforcement array!"

And the inappropriate voice of the melancholic personality sounded again.

"Then let me ask you, what if the enemy repairs it in advance?"

The Perfect Personality looked at the Melancholic, sighed and said:

"They don't have 'just in case' authority."

"Then let me ask you, Master Personality, is the tolerance rate for the Perfectionist's tactics 0%?"

Sometimes, Camille really felt that Type 6 inherited all the bad aspects of her personality, being both cowardly and saintly.

Fortunately, the other party is just a nagging person and is very obedient when he should be.

"If you can make 0% mistakes, the enemy will have 100% failure."

Camille replied to the Melancholic personality, and before the other party could say "Then let me ask you", she marched towards Calvin Kelasel who was in front of her.

Upon seeing this, the other eight secondary personalities immediately followed the main personality and rushed towards the other party.

With the precise suppression of the black magician's magic power, the magic network nodes of the Kailasel family began to disintegrate, and the counterattack of the defenders gradually became powerless.

By evening, the defenders of the fortress had fallen into despair.

They discovered that the Dark Lord's army was not only large in number and well coordinated, but also formed an unshakable offensive under Camille's command.

The shield of Fort Lele made one last chilling cracking sound in the night, and the shattered magic ripples in the air were like a gorgeous magic meteor, and then dissipated into nothingness.

The Aurors on the city wall looked pale and watched in despair as the Dark Lord's army marched in. The shouts of battle and the roar of magic instantly filled the entire fortress.

On the fortress's observation tower, Calvin Kelasel stood quietly, his eyes fixed on the Vaal River in the distance.

The reinforcements he had hoped for were nowhere to be found, and the surrounding magic network hubs had long been destroyed by the Green Witch's minions. The magic network barrier that he was so proud of was also reduced to ash in several rounds of fierce attacks.

Calvin's hand touched the family emblem on his chest, his fingertips trembling slightly, but his expression did not show any sign of retreat.

"For the Kailasel family."

A hint of determination flashed in Calvin's eyes. He clenched his wand tightly, his heart filled with determination to die.

"No matter what, the Naga Ring will never fall into the hands of those scum."

Calvin sneered, and whispered:
"Let me see how capable your so-called 'witch' is."

He jumped down from the stairs and landed in the central square of the fortress, facing the approaching Green Witch and her eight personalities.

Camille, wearing the main personality mask, walked forward slowly, holding a magic wand, with cold and murderous eyes.

The other eight clones surrounded Calvin and locked him in the center.

"Calvin Kay Russell, the war is over and you lost."

"Followers of the Dark Lord, you are nothing but a group of bandits in disguise of faith! The Kailasel family has guarded this land for hundreds of years. Even if it is lost today, I will make you pay the price!" Calvin said with a sneer.

"Your family is not a guardian, but just a cancer that parasitizes the wizarding class. Glory? It was obtained by sacrificing countless ordinary wizards, right?" The Enthusiast laughed.

"Kailasel's arrogance is like your fire magic. When the time is up, it goes out." The challenger took over the conversation and said sarcastically.

Camille sighed behind the main character mask.

The personality mask is like this: the main personality only needs to be responsible for control, while the other secondary personalities have to consider more things in order to fully express their emotional selves.

Neither side exchanged much trash talk. When the challenger finished speaking, Calvin simply raised his wand, and violent magic power suddenly surged around his body.

His voice was like a roar:

"Foolish witch, I will never let you threaten the rule of Kailasel--"

boom--

A blazing fireball flew out of his hand at high speed, aiming directly at the masked clones in the front array. The flames exploded instantly, and the blazing heat waves rolled in all directions.

The Challenger Mask quickly cast a defensive shield, and soon after, the other clones used magic barriers and efficient movement to disperse the impact of the explosion.

"Disperse the formation and pay attention to your position!"

The Thinker Mask calmly commanded. [Mirror Image!]
Calvin's figure flashed, and four illusory mirror images appeared instantly, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

[Group Invisibility!]
, his figure disappeared from the spot again, and the invisible threat made the clones besieging him fall into confusion for a moment.

However, the Thinker Mask calmly waved his wand, and a beam of [Dispel Magic] cut through the night sky, instantly dispelling the invisibility spell and forcibly pulling Calvin back from the darkness.

"Too naive." The Thinker Mask said lightly.

The Thinker Mask quickly took over the situation. She calmly directed the other personalities to cooperate. The eight clones waved their wands together and suppressed Calvin in the center.

[Human Immobilization Spell*8]
Before being immobilized, Calvin detonated one of his magic net props, and a storm swirled around him. The violent airflow was mixed with ice blades and lightning. At the same time, he completely released the authority to use the magic net.

The Book of Sages has a total of I to IX levels of authority. Before the Dark Lord's declaration, the authority of the Grand Master of the Demon Network was VII, comparable to Terra's [Dominator].

Furthermore, they can temporarily activate Authority VIII and call upon great spells that rival the power of the [Crown].

But times are different now.

The Dark Lord uses unrest as an excuse to deceive the ignorant and attempt to overthrow the orthodox regime of the Naga Ring that has existed for thousands of years!
They stole the fire from the firewood of the Serpent Spirit altar and dug magic from the roots of the Kailasel family. This was not only a provocation to the family, but also a blasphemy to the entire wizard order.

Calvin waved his wand, and magical energy spread out in all directions like a storm, stirring up dust on the ground and shaking the magic net in all directions.

At this moment, he completely removed the restrictions on the magic network's authority and tried his best to call upon the remaining magic network resources.

However, the power of the response to this call was far weaker than he remembered. The joy of mobilizing the power of heaven and earth in the past has now turned into a feeling of emptiness that makes him angry.

【Book of Sages: Authority V】

[Spell Enhancement/Open]

[Magic Web Disturbance/On]

[Magic Web Torrent/Open]

[Shielding Spell/Open (…Identifying special fluctuations, shielding…)]

【Unknown node???】

[The current node bypasses the Sage Network, which is a violation of the Sage Network regulations. Please turn off the bypass device! ! ! ! ]

The channel network that Xia Xiu built using the [Lever of Heaven] is equivalent to the dark web and a "ladder" used to overcome the various blockades of the Sage Network of the Naga Ring.

So, at this moment, Calvin's shielding node crashed headfirst into the intricate [electronic channel] that the lever opened.

He suddenly raised his head and glared angrily at the Emerald Witch opposite him:

"Since the Dark Lord's declaration, the magic network has collapsed and disordered. The thief has stolen the magic network's resources and disrupted the wizard nodes, making it like fishing for the moon in the water for the great powers like us! Now, I, Calvin Kelasel, can only mobilize one tenth or one twelfth of the magic network's resources! What a shame!"

Camille watched all this calmly, standing on the edge of the storm without taking a single step back.

She wore the main character mask, her eyes were like blades, and her voice was clear but revealed an overwhelming confidence:

"Obstinate!"

Following her voice, the eight differentiated personalities each emitted light and joined the battle once again.

They crossed each other in the air, forming magical trails that pointed directly at Calvin's defense line.

Calvin's magic wand drew a blinding trail of flames, and fireballs empowered by the magic net exploded one after another, blasting the surrounding ground into a scorched earth.

The Achiever's Personality rushed forward, and the silver-white Ouroboros spell condensed in mid-air and smashed into the flame barrier created by Calvin.

With a loud roar, the barrier cracked, but was immediately reinforced by the shield technique chanted by Calvin.

"Do you really think you can stop me like this?"

Calvin snorted coldly, and the magic circle under his feet suddenly lit up, and a [solar ray] blasted towards the ground like a punishment from heaven.

A beam of light passed by, and the masked clone of "The Worrier" dissipated in the light.

Camille gritted her teeth behind the main persona, but remained calm.

"Thinker, back off!"

She gave orders calmly, her voice like a sharp sword piercing through the chaotic battlefield.

Under Camille's guidance, the remaining personalities quickly adjusted their formation.

The Zealot swerved to Calvin's flank at great speed and threw several [Magic Missiles] in an attempt to tear through his shield.

The challenger kept breaking through from the front, with the magic wand in his hand spewing out blazing flames, colliding head-on with Calvin's flaming arrows, and flames spread everywhere.

"Is this all you can do?" Calvin roared. He raised his wand and the flying spell allowed him to quickly rise into the air. High in the sky, he looked like a ferocious falcon, overlooking the battlefield below.

"dispersion!"

The Thinker gave the order, and Camille and the Peacemaker immediately approached from both sides, with spells and lights interweaving to block Calvin's retreat.

But Calvin's [Counter Spell] was as precise as a sharp blade, neutralizing their attacks one by one.

But things are different now. Every time he uses the counterattack, Calvin's breathing becomes heavier.

The power of the magic network once made him omnipotent, but now, he felt like he was fighting against the ocean with his bare hands.

The lack of magic network resources gradually made his attacks sluggish, but the enemy continued to press forward.

After a series of intense battles, only three of the eight personality masks remain, two of which are already full of cracks.

Moreover, the perfectionist mask of the protagonist was cracked in half, revealing Camille's cold and beautiful face.

"Even if I have to die, I will not bow my head."

Calvin panted, his face full of determination. He raised his wand and tried to gather magic again, but found that only a faint light was left in his hand. His voice was low and hoarse, with reluctance:

"The Kailasel family...won't..."

However, when he was about to say this, what came to his mind was the disastrous defeat in the battle, the enemy's relentless advance, and the Dark Lord who had not yet taken action.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face, and he murmured:
"Kay Russell... I underestimated you after all."

Camille didn't give him any more chances.

She raised her wand and said in a cold voice:

"Goodbye."

A dazzling beam of light shot out from the tip of her wand, and the silvery-white light hit Calvin directly in the chest.

The magical power penetrated his body like a poisonous snake, completely devouring his remaining vitality.

He uttered a howl of pain, lost his balance, staggered backward, and finally fell from the city wall into the Vaal River.

The cold river water instantly swallowed up his figure, leaving only a few lonely ripples that gradually spread and dissipated into the silent night.

From then on, with the drowning of Kailasel, the five-day "Siege of Letherien" ended.

The fledgling Emerald Witch delivered a perfect answer to the war. The victory of the Dark Lord's march completely bankrupted the strategic goal of Kaelacel's long-term control of the southern Muggle base, and shook the foundation of the Kaelacel family's control over the southern part of the Akares continent.

The day before Camille Sifani arrived at Letherien.

The news headlines in Letherien, Akareth, and even the entire Naga Ring are still:

The Unspeakable Man-Eating Demon King Approaches Letherian

In addition to this headline, there are three other related headlines that are spreading like a virus throughout the Naga Ring. The Serpent Spirit Crystal Wall Council has tried every possible means to stop the crazy spread of these news:

"The Seven Cities Rebellion Erupts on the Zelko Continent"

"Ancient Magic Revival in the Continent of Lortan"

"A large-scale wizard class equality movement emerges on the continent of Elsin"

I won a prize, an egg steamer and some other random prizes. I heard there is another big prize, which will be announced in two days. I have been communicating with the organizer recently, and I heard that I can have a free banquet. There are indeed a lot of things going on recently.
