A Wizard’s Secret

“Illusion!”

Inside the space that was bound by Alcra, there was a tense atmosphere. Everyone was attacking Alcra wildly, so almost no one had noticed this soft voice.

“Hoo…”

Suddenly, the initially violent space quietened. A large portion of the foreign tribes was distracted and stopped attacking.

Only a small fraction quickly regained consciousness. Their faces paled but before they could issue a warning, the sky turned black and darkness descended.

“Boom.”

An incomparably huge Darkness Demon Spirit stepped out of the darkness, its hands emitting endless darkness aura. With an enraged howl, it attacked the ensnared foreign tribes. In the blink of an eye, several foreign tribe members had been crushed dead by the Darkness Demon Spirit.

In addition to its immense powers, the Darkness Demon Spirit could also wield some hallucinating powers of the Darkness-type spells. Most importantly, it could be incarnated into darkness itself, making it impossible to guard against. Especially those foreign tribes who were trapped in the Mind Power illusion were completely unable to resist it.

“Fire!”

However, the fight was far from over. Following the descent of darkness, balls of flames began to spread in the empty space. After the flames appeared, they exploded in an instant.

Anyone who was being swept by this explosive wave could immediately sense that in the flames, there were thunder, gales, and ice crystals. All the various elements had been fused together. This was a terrifying spell fusion!

“D*mn, it’s the Spell Caster, the Spell Caster that we ignored!”

A few foreign tribes which had luckily escaped the Darkness Demon Spirit and the spell fusion could not help but screech. They looked around but could not see the Spell Caster’s silhouette.

Merlin was, of course, standing outside the vicinity of the imprisoned space. He and Alcra complemented each other’s strengths and weaknesses, so their combined powers were infinitely close to a Great Legend. In fact, to some extent, they were not inferior to a Great Legend.

With so many foreign tribes, neither Merlin nor Alcra could have faced them alone. However, with their powers combined, they were able to breeze through without any resistance.

Merlin’s first attack had killed more than thirty odd foreign tribe members. Over time, more of these foreign tribes would be injured and killed, so this was no longer a battle but a massacre.

Merlin was hiding under Alcra’s protection. With Alcra’s binding powers, these foreign tribes could not escape. Anyone who could not resist Merlin’s Hallucinating spells was awaiting death without respite. Even those who were fortunate enough to resist Merlin’s Hallucinating Spells had to continue to face attacks from the Darkness Demon Spirit and the spell fusion. With the help of Alcra’s binding powers, they faced certain death.

Therefore, once Merlin started attacking, he and Alcra were undefeatable!

“Alcra, how are you doing?”

Merlin smiled at Alcra. Since he was wielding the Hallucinating spells and other spells on the outside, it was quite relaxing. Thanks to Alcra keeping the foreign tribes restrained, Merlin did not face any retaliation.

“Phew…”

Alcra heaved a long breath and said, “Not too bad, I think we managed to hold on. The remaining foreign tribes don’t really pose much of a threat anymore. We’ve withstood this first wave of attack.”

“First wave of attack? Alcra, you mean that this is just the beginning and not the end?”

Merlin asked with a slight frown.

“End? Wizard Merlin, none of these foreign tribes consist of the mightiest existences of the open territory. Just wait and see, they’ll turn up…”

Alcra gazed outside the dimension. He was ready. In order to occupy this dimension, there would be a certain price to pay!

…

In the icy cold Void Zone, a burly, glowing foreign tribe member was quietly observing the dimension not too far ahead.

“It should be almost time. They’ve been inside for such a long time. No matter what techniques the mysterious Spell Caster and Alcra could wield, there’s no way they would be able to withstand hundreds of foreign tribes. Now is the best opportunity to seize the dimension!”

This mysterious foreign tribe member was glowing dimly, and upon closer inspection, appeared to be composed of hard rocks. This was a Rock Creature.

“Whiz.”

Just as this mysterious Rock Creature was about to enter the dimension, a golden ray flashed across the pitch-black Void Zone.

The golden ray flew directly toward the mysterious Rock Tribe member, and exploded into a golden burst of light. The next instant, a huge Roc with golden feathers appeared.

“Hehe, Luca, true enough, you’re the earliest to arrive. Why haven’t you gone inside?”

The golden Roc seemed to know this Rock Tribe member, and asked him mockingly.

The Rock Tribe’s Luca frowned and said slowly, “Bordeaux, the Feather Tribe is truly fast, I didn’t expect you to catch up so quickly!”

Luca heightened his vigilance. Although he knew that Bordeaux’s abilities were not the most powerful among the Feather Tribe, his speed was unequivocally the fastest of all. So, he was still a very tricky foreign tribe member.

Obviously, Bordeaux was also looking for a dimension. Luca began to regret playing too safe, and did not enter the dimension earlier to control it. In the end, it made him passive.

Right now, if he were to enter the dimension, most probably, Bordeaux would be the first one to block him.

The Feather Tribe’s Bordeaux raised his head and replied coldly, “This news was spread by the Rock Tribe, hehe, so I knew that you would arrive first. However, it looks like you’ve let the idiotic buffoons go ahead first to exhaust Alcra’s strength. Luca, your insidiousness had not changed at all. Even after so many years, you’re still the same.”

“Bordeaux, I’m not going to continue listening to your nonsense!”

Luca was somewhat angry. Bordeaux was not worth his time. With his unbeatable speed, Bordeaux had always been the trickiest and most infuriating one among the numerous preeminent Great Wizard-level foreign tribes.

Therefore, Luca did not want to waste time entangling himself with Bordeaux. He turned around, and flew toward the dimension.

“Swish.”

Bordeaux’ speed was extremely fast. He appeared once again, and blocked the Rock Tribe’s Luca’s way.

“Bordeaux, what do you want?”

Luca’s expression was gloomy as he stared at the golden Roc Bordeaux.

“Luca, why the hurry? Are you hoping to monopolize this dimension? Hehe, behind me are the Giant Nestia, and the crazy Spell Caster Kubale as well as some other top foreign tribe members. Even if you manage to temporarily control this dimension, how long can you last?”

Luca’s expression changed, and he looked at Bordeaux. “You want to join forces with me?”

“That’s right. The two of us can join forces, and each of us will occupy half of the dimension’s core. That Alcra is insignificant and can be easily defeated by any of us. The real trouble will come later from Nestia and Kubale. They’re the most troublesome of all. As long as the two of us can occupy the dimension first, even when they arrive, what can they do? As long as they’re not a Legend, they cannot expel us forcefully!”

Bordeaux’ words seemed to contain an iota of logic. Previously, Luca’s intention was to monopolize it but the thought of facing the giant Nestia and the Spell Caster Kubale gave him some pressure. These were the mightiest existences below a Legend in the open territory.

Even though they were the mightiest existences below a Legend, they would have to join forces to occupy this dimension. Luca looked at Bordeaux with a conflicting gaze. On one hand, he really wanted to occupy and absorb the dimension’s core. It would take at least a few decades for him to break through to become an existence comparable to a Legend.

On the other hand, it would be difficult to occupy the dimension for long-term where its dimension coordinates had been publicly announced. Only by joining forces with Bordeaux, and relying on his speed and his powerful attacks, Luca would not need to fear Nestia and Kubale.

“Very well, Bordeaux, but we must swear on the Ultimate Order!”

Finally, Luca bit his lip, and conceded with Bordeaux.

“That’s for sure. We must swear on the Ultimate Order!”

Thus, the two of them swiftly took out their oath stones, and swore on the Ultimate Order. With the sworn contract, the two had officially reached an agreement before entering the dimension.

“Okay, let’s go now. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Nestia and Kubale arrived first.

“Oh? I heard that Alcra is occupying this dimension. Alcra is quite unique, he’s a second-generation Tree Folk, and his abilities are comparable to a preeminent Great Wizard.”

Bordeaux knew some information about Alcra but they were similarly outstanding opponents who were equivalent to the preeminent Great Wizards, the mightiest below the Legends.

“Alcra is indeed quite troublesome but more than ten teams with over a hundred foreign tribes have already taken the lead, and entered the dimension. Most probably, they have already defeated Alcra and are fighting among themselves for the controlling rights of the dimension. If we go in now, who can stand up against us? I’m sure it’ll be easy for us to obtain the controlling rights of the dimension.”

Although Luca had arrived long ago, the reason he did not act was to allow these foreign tribes to enter and fight Alcra beforehand. With both sides sustaining losses, he would then enter and gain control of the dimension in a single swoop.

“Haha, Luca, you’re still so insidious!”

Luca’s mouth tensed up but he held back and did not get angry. Immediately, he turned around and flew toward the dimension in a distance.

…

In the dimension, the Tree Folk Alcra was in his true form. Numerous roots were deeply buried in the air, absorbing traces of Elemental Origin. With this foundation, his binding powers were more stable than ever, so he was able to keep more than a hundred foreign tribes who were comparable to Great Wizards tightly bounded.

Awaiting them was the combined massacre by Alcra and Merlin!

Following the death of a Rock Tribe’s preeminent Great Wizard at last, more than a hundred foreign tribes were killed. The chaotic aura of war still lingered in the air. Even space was considerably broken, and was mending quickly.

Merlin glanced at the Tree Folk Alcra. The Tree Tribe’s disposition was truly distinctive. As long as they could control a dimension, the Tree Folk could wield truly inconceivable strength! Alcra had a constant source of energy just by having its roots in the air of the dimension. Drawing on the Elemental Origins, he had a steady stream of power. Therefore, it was very difficult to break Alcra’s restraint. At least, these over a hundred foreign tribes could not accomplish it.

“Okay, now we can rest and recharge for a bit…”

Merlin was also preparing to use the elemental crystal stones to replenish his Magic Power. However, before he could finish his sentence, he saw Alcra shaking violently. At the same time, Merlin also felt that two foreign tribe members had entered the dimension.

“Finally, they came… Wizard Merlin, get ready, the toughest battle is upon us!”

Alcra’s tone revealed an unprecedented gravity.
