"Herlin, do you have any countermeasures?"
"Countermeasures? Isn't this already being implemented? Increase the number of wizards.
Look at this young man. He should be at the same level as a wizard apprentice, but he can also use the three skills granted by the Saint Network.
Although the cooling time is relatively long, it is still an important combat power.
What I can do now is to promote meditation as much as possible and create as many wizards as possible.
At that time, no matter who wins or loses, as long as we have the strength, we will not be afraid."
"Didn't you say that without a Saint, the other party is invincible?"
"Of course I can be promoted to Saint Wizard anytime now."
"What? You said you—you, can be promoted to a Saint Wizard at any time?!"
"What? Is there a problem?"
"Then why are you... now?"
"You don't think the birth of a saint in the Demon Kingdom and the outbreak of the continental war were accidental, do you?!"
"Are you saying that if you advance to Sainthood, we will also encounter the same situation that the Demon Nation is facing now—a continental war?"
"If it weren't for the fact that our wizards' foundation is too weak, our numbers are too small, and we were worried about the continental war after the promotion, I would have been promoted to Saint Wizard long ago."
This person is such a monster!
The three of them confirmed this statement again.
…
In the Demon Kingdom, on the front lines, the Queen stood before the palace gates, gazing at the shrinking battlefield in the distance. Her face showed no sign of anxiety or uneasiness at impending defeat. Instead, she hummed a delighted tune.
The Demonic Kingdom was a very traditional supernatural civilization. Supernatural beings held all power. As long as one was powerful enough, they would be directly placed on the throne of emperor according to the established procedures.
In the Demonic Kingdom, magician rank is everything. For example, the current queen is Saint Magician Joan of Arc, Her Majesty.
The great magician is the king of the vassal states, and the magician is the lord.
Likewise, the Magician corresponds to the Great Knight, and the Legendary Knight corresponds to the Great Magician.
Although the Demon Kingdom covers a vast area, equivalent to the combined area of the Federation and Nanzhao, it is mostly mountains, rivers, lakes, forests, and grasslands. Only 3% of the land is suitable for agriculture. This is less than the arable land area of the Federation. Not to mention the agricultural powerhouse Nanzhao.
Typical of a vast land with sparse population.
There were only two knight families. They didn't care about territory, so before the emergence of magicians, the two families were only interested in their own territories. This also provided space for the development of magicians.
After the emergence of magicians, they were also regarded as natural lords by the people because of their awe of supernatural powers. Because of the encouragement of this natural lord, talented wizards were quickly transformed into magicians and began to build their own territories.
The number of magicians continued to increase, and territorial frictions continued. Eventually, a war that affected the entire Western Continent broke out. After a hundred years of war, a new system was finally established.
The empire was divided into territories, vassal states and empires. The throne of the empire was empty and the empire had only one capital.
The so-called imperial throne was given to the legendary holy magician simply because a unified title was needed.
During that period, the Empire's thirst for territory was endless. Decades of fighting with the Nanzhao Kingdom and the Federation resulted in the bloody grasslands beneath Tiandun Mountain.
The imperial capital at the center of the Western Continent was originally just a humble mortal city. Because it wasn't the territory of any magician, it allowed magic apprentices to feel free, so awakened magic apprentices constantly gathered here. Over time, it eventually became the place with the largest number of magic apprentices.
Gradually, it became the place with the largest number of magicians. In the end, all the magicians were concentrated in the imperial capital. Although they had fiefs, they were just their own property.
As magicians gathered in large numbers, exchanges between them became more frequent. Later generations of magicians began to consider their disciples as the continuation of their own traditions. Gradually, schools of magic emerged.
Where there are schools of thought, there are opinions; where there are opinions, there are differences; where there are differences, there is also cooperation.
Through the confrontation and cooperation between the schools, the magic academy was gradually established.
During this period, the magicians' pursuit of magic gradually surpassed their pursuit of territory, and they no longer cared about the territory of the Eastern Continent.
However, the five-year battle at Tiandun Mountain was retained to hone the skills of new magicians. To the magicians of the Western Continent, the Eastern Continent was a backward and barbaric place. After losing interest in their territory, they no longer had any interest in the Eastern Continent.
At this time, the magicians finally gave birth to their holy magician - Her Majesty Joan of Arc.
However, the birth of the Holy Magician also ushered in a continental war.
During the continental war, the Holy Magician quickly became the true leader of the magicians with his absolute strength.
The war was in a stalemate from the very beginning. Although the opponent's cloud-based origin network was not as powerful as the space-based origin network of the Holy Magician Joan of Arc, it was still a very powerful force.
However, her skills in sneak attacks and self-preservation were top-notch. In several decisive battles, when the enemy, unable to defeat them, simply fled, Joan of Arc was unable to defeat them. She was simply unable to kill the opposing Saints, causing this world war to continue for a hundred years.
For the saints who have awakened their origin, time is no longer their most powerful enemy. Instead, the saints from other continents are their greatest enemies.
Defeating the opponent, devouring half of the opponent's continent, and strengthening the essence of one's own continent will become the way of survival for the saints.
A saint cannot fail, failure means death.
This becomes the Saint's first battle, and the most crucial one for him. It is an examination of the Saint by the Origin of the Continent. Only by winning can he become the master of the Continent and settle in the Origin of the Continent.
Making your own original seeds take root, sprout, and grow means that you have the possibility of advancing to a higher level of original life!
After becoming a Saint, the desire for the Origin becomes an instinct, just like an ordinary person's need for food and water.
A serious middle-aged man walked in and saluted Joan of Arc.
"Those three wizards have appeared again. Should we handle it the same way as before?"
"A few mice left. A few turtles came in. It's really annoying! Especially at this critical moment. Forget it, they are all my people from now on. I'll warn them. Anyone who peeks again will die."
"Follow your will, Your Majesty, Saint Magician Jeanne d'Arc."
…
After hearing the message from the three wizards, Herlin said
"Thank you for your hard work. You completed this mission very well. Each of you will be rewarded with 500 contribution points. Okay, go down and rest!"
On the second floor of the Wizard Tower, as more and more intelligence was collected, Herin felt more and more uneasy. According to this world, the Saint was the only great master who saved the people from danger and guided them.
"Your Majesty, the Holy Magician Jeanne d'Arc?"
"only!"
"I originally wanted to accumulate for a while, but it seems I can only take the risk."
