The Witcher: Elemental Lords

In the midst of the vast storm, Doray stood, his body radiating waves of wizardry outwards, his aura gradually permeating the surrounding天地 (tiāndì - heaven and earth/world).

While orchestrating the storm, he was also comprehending it. This was Doray's first time setting up a storm, so he could gain the most insights. He remembered the last time he set one up was when he was at sea.

As time slowly passed, by the afternoon of the first day, no magical beasts had yet come to the Northern Plains Mountain Range, but the storm's range had already expanded to the fourth layer of mountains, gradually spreading from the inside out towards the third layer.

From a distance, the entire Albis Mountain Range seemed about to be enveloped by a layer of storm, forming a forbidden zone of storms.

Within the storm's range, all creatures trembled, fleeing in terror, running towards the outside of the mountain. Doray's actions had already caused the disruption of the mountain range's overall operation.

Besides setting up the storm, Doray had been paying attention to the situation around the mountain range.

The storm was him, and he was the storm. Wherever the storm passed, everything was within his sight.

Just at this moment, the locust tree forest he had been watching was finally reached by the storm's tentacles.

At this time, it had just turned dark.

Within the locust tree forest, a faint aura of Yin slowly rose, blocking the formation of the storm. The surrounding temperature dropped, and the cold and frost disrupted the rhythm of the storm's formation.

At the same time, an extremely sharp mental force shot out from the locust tree forest, fiercely stabbing towards the storm.

Immediately, Doray felt the mental force. He was shocked. This mental strength was as high as Level 6, which was very powerful.

He did not dare to confront it head-on, so he diverted a strand of his mind. A lightning bolt as thick as a thigh suddenly appeared in the sky, striking down fiercely from the storm.

Rumble.

The lightning struck the mental force, and the mental force cried out miserably, retreating back.

Creatures of the Yin attribute are most afraid of lightning and fire. Doray used lightning to restrain them, complementing each other.

At the same time, he released a mental force, contacting the other side.

"I want to control this mountainous area. Do not hinder my actions, and we can live in peace."

The mental force immediately responded, letting out an angry roar, "The human race is untrustworthy." A sinister mental force permeated from the forest, transforming into the appearance of a fox, provoking Doray.

Doray looked at this mental force, somewhat surprised.

Foxes have always been synonymous with wisdom. Who would have thought it would be this thing?

He thought for a moment and said, "I can destroy you at any time. Believe it or not, I will bypass this locust tree forest. Do not hinder my actions."

He raised the storm a little, passing over it from high altitude, truly bypassing the locust tree forest.

Below the locust tree forest, the huge fox ghost looked at Doray's actions, both fearful and resentful.

"It's been so many years of peace, why did you have to come and disturb me?"

Doray replied.

"Because I am currently in charge of this entire mountainous area."

The fox was immediately stunned. It had naturally felt the previous great battle. Every single one of those vast powers could destroy it.

It had no choice but to cautiously retreat back. "I hope you can do what you say."

Doray ignored it and continued to expand the storm's range.

The wind surged, the atmosphere stirred, and the storm rolled over Albis Mountain, as if it were the end of the world.

But the magical thing was that the storm seemed fierce and violent, but it did not have much impact on the creatures in the mountain.

After feeling this, the surrounding creatures calmed down. The only thing that made them uncomfortable was that, affected by the storm, the light in the mountain was not very good. The wind in the sky and the water vapor condensed into a huge storm image, completely blocking the light.

They had to move. Without sunlight, the plants would wither and die. Without plants, some ordinary low-level creatures would not be able to survive, slowly starving to death, and higher creatures would not be able to live either.

What happened on Albis Mountain could not be hidden from others, especially the human race. After the news was passed back, everyone knew that Albis Mountain had changed, and the owner had been changed silently.

With Albis Mountain as the center, large areas of uninhabited land now had a true owner.

This would be a land of wealth, and also an undeveloped land.

Then, a day later, Wassonburg announced to the outside world that Albis Mountain was officially incorporated into its territory, all the way to the foot of the Northern Plains Mountain Range, all under the control of Wassonburg.

Hearing this news, all the forces were boiling.

…

The city lord of Du City had been waiting for this day for a long time. He immediately summoned all the dignitaries, city guards, and militia in the city to discuss together. In just one day, he had gathered 30,000 elite soldiers, heading towards Albis Mountain along Du City.

His purpose was very clear, which was to occupy more territory on the basis that Doray did not have actual control.

Du City has a total of seven counties under its jurisdiction. The city lord of Du City issued an order to all counties to occupy land to the north.

In the past, with Albis Mountain and many terrifying magical beasts, no one dared to do this, but now that Albis Mountain has no powerful magical beasts, isn't it their world?

Du City's actions were no different from those of other prefectures, which was to occupy territory.

They did not carry out the traditional deployment of troops, logistics, and other matters, but instead summoned troops. At this time, they did not even need logistics, heading straight to the north, sweeping and cleaning up, and then setting up occupation signs.

In just one day, Du City advanced more than ten kilometers.

Truly catching Doray off guard.

When approaching Albis Mountain, seeing the situation on Albis Mountain, the Du City city lord slowed down again.

It was too amazing, too terrifying. Albis Mountain, which used to be a dangerous area, was now completely shrouded in a terrifying storm. Black clouds covered the sky, lightning flashed and thundered, making terrifying sounds.

Is this the Great Wizard? Didn't they say he was only Level 5?

The closer they got to Albis Mountain, the stronger this feeling became. That terrifying aura and pressure brought a strong sense of shock.

After advancing a full thirty kilometers into the wilderness, Du City hesitated.

"My lord, are we still occupying it? What if that person gets angry and the storm sweeps over, we'll all be finished," the deputy said in fear at this time.

He had never seen such a terrifying scene. Even the legendary Level 7 wizard, the president of the Glorious Wizard Alliance, did not have the ability to control such a large range of weather, right? If this were placed in Du City, it would probably have destroyed the city by now.

In the wilderness, the large magical beasts had already run away, leaving only Level 2 and 3 magical beasts. It was not easy to sweep all the way through.

In one day, gathering the power of all the counties, they only advanced thirty kilometers outwards, nothing more, and many people were killed and injured.

Seeing this situation, the city lord of Du City hardened his heart and continued to order, "Rest today, continue to advance tomorrow. It's good to occupy a little more now, anyway, the other party hasn't delimited the boundary, right?"

At this time, one of the county city lords hesitated and said, "Lord City Lord, what if our behavior is regarded as a provocation by the other party? That is a wizard who can even kill Level 7 magical beasts."

The city lord of Du City twitched his mouth. He pretended to be calm and said, "What we are doing now is all within the scope allowed by the laws of the empire. We have not crossed the line. The other party will not do anything to us. Now we are expanding outwards for more than thirty kilometers within the scope of Du City. These ranges all belong to your several counties, what are you afraid of?"
