The Wizarding Age

The entire battlefield was silent!

Although the arcane masters no longer regarded the wizards as their own kind, but regarded them as evil and cruel creatures like the disaster creatures and star beasts. But when they saw with their own eyes a two-headed wizard who had transformed into a flesh and blood giant bit off his companion's head like a monster and was still chewing it, their hearts were trembling and shuddering!

Therefore, when the fire giant, the two-headed wizard, and the terrible wizard hiding in the astral construct gathered together, the arcane masters' spirits collapsed.

The arcane warning tower that was fighting with the Holly wizard exuded a violent arcane halo, forcing him back, and then threw out a traction halo, pulling the "companion" who was still struggling with the starlight wizard formation, and flew away without looking back.

'Retreat'...

Frightened by the evil wizards, this group of arcane masters retreated without a fight!

Looking at the other party's slightly panicked and crazy fleeing figure, the two-headed wizard couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood foam and said contemptuously: "Hmph, a group of softies who have never been on the battlefield..."

Even Grimm couldn't help but sigh secretly when he saw the other party's back quickly moving away.

The fighting will of these arcane masters is too weak!

Perhaps in the Arcane Empire, only knowledge theory is clamoring, and those old pedants and antiques with profound knowledge also have higher status and power.

With the Arcane Tower, the Floating City, the Demiplane Fortress, and the Arcane Guard, the arcane masters naturally don't need to do it themselves, and it is even more impossible for them to run to the front line of the battlefield like barbaric warriors to fight bloody enemies.

In their cognition, the so-called war is to stay leisurely in the safe rear, press the crystal hub, command the strong ships and cannons (demiplane fortresses), and drive the bottom cannon fodder (arcane guards) to quickly tear open the enemy's defense line.

And they only need to throw grand arcane spells at the enemy with a smile under the protection of the arcane barrier.

War is an art, and what we need to do is to use our knowledge to crush all enemies!

It is under the influence of this war mentality that the arcane masters have become a group of poor guys who are particularly cherishing their lives. When the blood on the battlefield exceeds their tolerance limit, they will turn around and run away without hesitation.

In fact, if they are more rational and firm, with the cooperation of the two arcane guard towers, it is still a high probability to entangle or repel the attack of the three evil wizards. But unfortunately, although the arcane guard tower was not breached, the heart defense of the arcane master who controlled everything in the tower was severely crushed.

This group of trash...

While the wizard Holly pouted his mouth with disdain, he turned around and came to the broken guard tower, smashed a passage with his hard astral hand, and flew in.

After a while, he flew out again and threw a huge crystal of knowledge to Grimm. Seeing his beaming face, it was obvious that he had gained a lot in the tower.

The war was over, and the three of them gathered together again in front of the arcane guard tower.

The two-headed wizard had withdrawn from the transformed state, and his breath was a little weak, and his body was covered with scars of various sizes. There was a fist-sized eye-catching blood hole in his lower abdomen, and scarlet blood was spilled all over the ground.

However, even with such injuries, Mangus was still full of excitement and joy.

With a muffled sound, Mangus threw the remains of the 4-ring arcane master to the ground. A stream of blood kept flowing out from the headless neck, dyeing the large area of ​​soil under him red.

Grimm glanced and did not find any space equipment similar to the storage ring on the remains of the arcane master, so he turned his head and looked elsewhere without mentioning the matter. The Holi wizard seemed to have noticed this, but since Mangus had fought hard enough, he didn't pursue the matter any further.

The three of them cleaned up the battlefield hastily, and before the new enemy appeared, they hurried into the forest and headed straight for the next target.

…………

Ruijing Garden, floating city.

The rage of the great arcanist Furuila could no longer be suppressed, and she almost wanted to blow off the lid of the entire arcane hall.

She roared angrily, slapping the long obsidian conference table in front of her, and her sharp and pointed accusations made the two 4th-ring arcanists so ashamed that they could hardly raise their heads.

After ordering the arcane guards to suppress the two arcanists in a stern tone, Furuila looked around at everyone in the hall, and the anger on her face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a kind of sadness and resentment from the depths of her soul.

After concentrating on thinking about the language, Furuila finally spoke.

"I have received the evacuation order from the Imperial Command... The order was delivered by His Majesty Garcia himself, and it was signed by eleven 7th-ring archmages..."

Hearing the extremely harsh word "retreat", the faces of many archmages present turned pale instantly. In the 127-year plane defense war, they heard countless bad news, and they also knew that the Arcane Empire was struggling to support it.

But... the word "retreat" still scared them!

The Morian plane is the origin plane of the archmages. The enemy has already hit their doorstep. Where else can they retreat to? Could it be that they abandon the origin plane and retreat to some secondary planes to live a life of a stray dog?

"Why are there only His Majesty Garcia and His Majesty Newman?" An elderly 4th-ring arcanist stood up tremblingly, staring at Furela and asked.

Garcia and Newman are the two emperors who hold supreme power in the Arcane Empire, but the people of the Arcane Empire prefer to call them "Garcia the Ruler" and "Newman the Arbitrator".

In fact, the Arcane Empire actually practices a parliamentary republic. The Arcane Emperor is more of an honorary title, which does not mean that the Arcane Empire practices the so-called imperial system.

Hearing the old arcanist's question, Furela's facial muscles twitched a few times, and finally she answered.

"The upper echelons of the empire have split. His Majesty Newman does not agree with His Majesty Garcia's views and believes that the empire can continue to persevere. So..."

"So His Majesty Garcia advocates escaping, while His Majesty Newman advocates defending... Then what about those great arcanists?"

"The great arcanists are also divided into two factions. One faction believes that the Morian plane is difficult to preserve, and the core forces of the Arcane Empire must be transferred out as soon as possible before the outer defense line is completely collapsed. The other faction... believes that we can retreat to the interior of the plane and use floating cities and arcane towers to strangle those enemies who dare to invade our world. After all, the strongest strength that the enemy can exert after entering the plane is only the peak of level 4. We have the power of the terrain and are waiting for the enemy to tire. It is entirely possible to eliminate the enemy's elite in the plane..."

"That means we have to use the entire plane world as a battlefield... After such a plane war, even if we win, I'm afraid there will be nothing left in the entire Morian plane!"

Furila was speechless.

The Arcane Empire had invaded other planes before. They certainly knew how much damage would be done to ordinary people when a plane was invaded by a terrifying alien race. Rivers of blood and countless lives were lost. These words were not enough to describe the horror of the plane war.

After a plane war, only one in a hundred ordinary creatures survived.

What's more, the Arcane Empire was not facing an enemy this time, but a huge group of powerful races from the multiverse. It was almost impossible for the Arcane Empire to survive this "natural disaster".

Therefore, the deeper they thought, the more the arcane masters felt that their souls were torn in half.

They also wanted to stay with His Majesty Newman and fight to the death with those alien monsters to fight for a chance to survive. However, the unique rationality of the arcane masters told them that this was only a dead end, and it would make the Arcane Empire be wiped out and there would be no chance of a comeback.

Therefore, silently listening to Furela's whisper about the split in the upper echelons of the empire, all the arcanists belonging to the floating city of Ruijing Garden were bleeding inside, and were torn in half.

"So what do you mean?" Another arcanist stood up.

"At present, the imperial defense line outside the plane barrier is still stable. Apart from a few guys who broke in, the main enemies are only those disaster creatures and individual star beasts. Therefore, the news that the empire is preparing to retreat cannot be easily leaked."

"Remember, the time and number of people left by the empire's upper echelons are limited. Each arcanist above the third ring can only take two people, and the arcanist below the third ring can only take one person. In addition, the empire's upper echelons have reserved 200 transfer quotas for us. After you go back, carefully select and identify, and report the names of those particularly talented little guys. I will put them on the transfer list as appropriate..."

"I emphasize again that the news of the empire's retreat is still highly confidential, and any participating arcanist needs to keep it strictly confidential. At least before the retreat plan begins, I don't want the leakage of information to cause internal chaos in the floating city. Did you all hear it?" When she said the last sentence, Fu Ruila's voice suddenly turned cold and stern, and the majestic aura of the great arcanist instantly enveloped the entire arcane hall.

"Yes!" All the arcanists stood up and nodded.

"Remember, whoever leaks the news will have his transfer quota cancelled immediately. Don't blame me for turning my back on you when the time comes!" After another stern warning, Furela relaxed her expression and waved tiredly, saying, "All of you go down and get ready!"

Looking at the arcanists who filed out, Furela sighed silently and turned back to her residence.
