Age of Adepts

With the arrival of the demon tide, the flames of war and gunpowder smoke have never dissipated!

Scary news of alien beast invasions or Black Forest riots can be heard almost everywhere in the Wizarding Continent. Either way, it will bring terrible disasters and unparalleled impact to the local mortal world.

From time to time, it is always possible to hear that a certain area suffered heavy casualties due to the invasion of unknown alien beasts, or that a former human country was ruined due to the outbreak of a plague or the invasion of alien beasts... The more you hear such news, the more you will feel. caused panic among the people.

With their wives and their families, they caught up with the few remaining livestock, or hid in the deep mountains, or followed the mighty flow of people to the few areas that have been considered safe so far. Among them, the Elovis region and the Hayworth region under the rule of the Crimson family undoubtedly became the safest isolated islands.

The people living in these two regions have reason to be thankful for their own happiness.

Whenever they see an astonishing number of floating giants floating in the sky, whenever they pass the border checkpoints and see rows of tall and mighty metal magic equipment, a sense of security comes from the bottom of their hearts. .

Because the Crimson Clan had done a lot of preparatory work early on, almost all potential safety hazards in the two regions were monitored in advance. Therefore, during the outbreak of the first round of demon tide, all the strange beasts who slipped into the crimson territory were wiped out by the family armed forces who heard the news.

The direct result of this is that more or less serious invasions of alien races and beasts broke out in 31 large and small areas in the central part of the mainland. But only in the two areas ruled by Crimson, not even a shadow of a monster was seen.

Not to mention the invasion of monsters from other worlds, even the Black Forest adjacent to the Elovis area, where the monster lords have just gathered a group of wild beasts and low-level monsters, and the floating monsters who heard the news before rushing out of the forest Empty giant ships surrounded.

As soon as the Crimson Fleet arrived, without further ado, they airdropped the Demon Dragon No. 1 that was on board. Along with Molong No. 1, there is also a magic weapon battle group with a number of 2,000.

They are no longer the heavy and clumsy old machines that spit out a lot of white steam, but pg-52 combat magic machines that have been repeatedly improved and strengthened by dozens of generations of goblins.

If we look at the overall performance, the basic combat power of a pg-52 battle magic weapon is already comparable to that of a second-level wizard. If you consider the fearlessness and obedience of magic equipment, then their cost performance is far higher than that of second-level wizards.

However, the power of magic equipment cannot be infinitely enlarged.

Basically, the pg-52 combat magic weapon is already at the peak level of magic combat machinery!

This also means that Tier 2 is already the limit of mass-produced magical weapons.

If you want to increase the power of magic equipment, you must use more expensive magic alloys and use rarer metal resources. However, due to the limitation of resources and materials, it is obviously impossible to allow the infinite expansion of magical weapons.

However, the emergence of the magic weapon puppet dragon turned out to earn some face for the magic weapon arm. Relying on the outstanding performance of Demon Dragon One, Goblin Magic Equipment finally has a work that can be produced at the high level.

Therefore, when the huge metal body of Molong No. 1 with a height of 100 meters appeared in the black forest, wading out a spacious avenue with a width of tens of meters in the depths of the dense forest all the way, the herd of beasts that had just gathered together collapsed. up.

The Dragon One with its huge metal body is a super magic weapon that can fight against level 4 wizards. Although there are defects such as inability to move and many defensive blind spots under the body, with the assistance of two thousand combat magic equipment behind him, everything is no longer a problem.

The wild beasts and monsters that had just gathered were like a group of frightened lambs running around in the depths of the dense forest. They were chased and killed by Molong No. 1 and the magic weapon group behind them like a hunt.

Those monsters whose brutal nature was provoked by the demon tide also launched a fearless charge against the magic weapon battle group in groups of three or four. It's a pity that their bravery and rage were all shattered in front of the indestructible tall body of the battle magic weapon.

In the face of the unstoppable metal frenzy, individual bravery and bravery will not help at all. Although sporadic powerful monster lords can also set off small waves, they will be smashed to pieces in an instant like a huge wave hitting a rock, turning into bits and pieces of foam and disappearing without a trace.

Dusk Lizard, Mind Ripper, Gnoll, Woodthorn, Blackscale Lizard, Zephyr, Sagittarius, Forest Troll, Woad Treant, Slime, Armored Bear, Skullcracker Human demons, earth crystal people, hundred-eyed ghosts, stone singers, giant-winged snake dragons...

To be honest, the Black Forest in the wizarding world is simply a treasure trove of monsters. There are all kinds of monsters in various forms, and the number is even more terrifying.

Each of these monster leaders is a frightening and terrifying guy, but once they encounter an established magic weapon battle group, they will become a little shrimp who can fight alone and can't make waves.

In the face of the Demon Dragon No. 1, which is so easy to siege the city and pull out the stronghold, in the face of the fierce artillery battle group that does not hesitate to use mana, in the face of the giant floating ship that dominates the whole situation in the sky... Several thorny monster leaders were killed by demons. After the giant cannon bombarded the scene, the rest of the little guys scattered like birds and beasts, fled into the depths of the dense forest and disappeared without a trace.

For a time, there was no trace of any monsters within three thousand miles of the black forest in the northeast corner of the Ailuoweisi area.

After driving the monsters to a farther place, the magic weapon group did not continue to pursue but chose to withdraw to the family. However, within the border of three thousand miles, the Crimson Fleet has left some hidden monitoring witch formations.

In this way, it is impossible for the monsters to hide any follow-up actions from the eyes of the Crimson family.

A buffer zone of three thousand miles was enough for the Crimson Family to survive this demon tide smoothly.

You know, it is not so easy for the monster lords to organize a large-scale beast tide. They have no concept of logistics support and organizational planning.

With their lord power, they can barely suppress the beast herd for two or three days. Gather the herd, force and induce the herd to move towards the human settlement...

Such a complicated operation is even okay for a while. But once the target of the attack is thousands of miles away, how to suppress the restlessness of the herd and allow them to reach the attack site smoothly becomes an impossible task.

No high-level ferocious beast is willing to endure three or five days of starvation to attack human towns across three thousand miles. After all, any prey that is lying around can be used to feed its hunger. And once the high-level ferocious beasts started to hunt at will, the numerous wild beasts and ferocious birds that had engulfed them would scatter and flee in all directions, making it difficult to control them anymore.

Therefore, to a certain extent, the buffer zone of three thousand miles is enough to become an insurmountable moat for the herd of beasts!

Of course, the crimson family's almost crushing expulsion method is not something any wizard family can learn. He wanted to find the place where the herd of beasts was entrenched in the dangerous black forest, and then dispatched elite family members to disperse the core main force in one go, and drove them away to a certain safe distance.

To complete such an operation, what is needed is an elite and highly mobile team that is not restricted by the terrain and geographical environment.

In most wizard families, there are only a few wizard troops of Tier 4 forces that can barely meet this standard. The rest of the wizard troops either have insufficient fists or lack flying mounts that can maneuver at high speed in the Black Forest...

And once it is impossible to break up the herd of beasts with the force of a thunderbolt, then in the dark and deep black forest, a bloody and brutal formal war will be staged. And this is by no means good news for the wizard troops who have penetrated into the enemy's territory.

The resources and financial resources of the big family are relatively abundant, and they can control multiple wizard troops with strange combat capabilities at the same time. However, most of the small and medium-sized wizarding families may only have a wizarding team that has been pulled together through untold hardships within the family.

And once the main force of such a family is lost in the Black Forest, I am afraid that the entire family will be devastated and reduced to a third-rate power from then on.

Therefore, without complete assurance, no wizard family would dare to send out valuable combat power to raid the herd of beasts. They prefer to wait for work and stick to the wizard tower, and use the war wizard tower and witch beasts to resist the impact of the herd.

With the strength of the monster lords, it is still very difficult to break through an official witch tower.

Therefore, the safety of wizards is also guaranteed, and the wizard army has no risk of annihilation.

However, the huge disaster that the swarming beast horde might bring to the family territory became inevitable!

However, in the eyes of wizards, the loss of official wizards and wizard troops is unacceptable. As for the mortals in the family territory, their losses are nothing more than numbers on the books for the wizards.

Although the death of a large number of people will also cause wizards a lot of headaches, but it is something wizards will never do if they want them to use the lives of wizards to protect these so-called 'properties'.

The loss of 'property' can be made up slowly, but the loss of the family's precious wizard resources becomes absolutely unacceptable!

It is the conservative and short-sighted style of the wizards that makes the beast tide so aggressive and harmful, bringing continuous turmoil and deep suffering to the entire wizarding continent.

Compared with the silos in the central part of the mainland, the three wizarding organizations showed a high level of organization and discipline.

The Silver Alliance has a lot of money and wealth. In order to deal with the demon tide, it began to shrink the population in the territory, temporarily relocating mortals to inland areas away from space rifts and black forests. In the town fortresses on the border, a large number of metal structures and puppets were filled.

Relying on these indestructible and huge number of puppet construct creatures, the Silver Alliance withstood the impact of several waves of beast tides in the Black Forest. Although the financial loss was relatively huge, the people and the territory were protected from danger.
