Chapter 187: Changes in Situation
Chapter 187
Outer space, deep in the realm of dreams and chaos.
An enormous war fortress quietly floats in the air.
This world itself is not an ordinary space.
Stars rise and fall, colors distort, and almost liquid sections of light and time flow in the void.
And in this magnificent yet dangerous space, this war fortress composed of many metal structures, rune arrays and super-dimensional components is surprisingly a very unique coordinate.
Moreover, the war fortress itself has a very powerful signal transmission function.
Therefore, as time passed, a group of wizards soon gathered in this war fortress.
In this strange and unknown space, the initial stronghold was established.
And this war fortress was actually the 13th War Fortress to which Lin En belonged.
In the war fortress, you can see many mechanical wizards walking around, manipulating and trying out various mechanical settings.
At the highest point of the war fortress, there were several figures standing there, and they were the current commanders of this stronghold.
Standing on the highest floor of this war fortress were naturally the two wizards Lin En was familiar with, the Great Wizard Earl and the Great Wizard Yod.
However, they were not the only two there, there was a third figure standing in the front.
On the top-floor observation deck, three figures stood on the edge of a storm of surging light, gazing into the distance at an unfathomable dream space.
Earl and Yoder both looked solemn at this moment, with obvious awe in their expressions.
Their eyes all fell on the black-robed figure standing in the center.
The man was tall and straight, his wizard robe fluttering silently like the falling night, and his whole body seemed to merge into this space.
He turned his back to the two third-level wizards and stared quietly at the space fog in front of him with intertwined colors and broken cause and effect.
What is most impossible to ignore is his pair of pale, pupilless eyes.
It was pure white like frost, without a trace of blood and no pupils, as if blocking out all breath of life. Just one glance was enough to freeze the soul of an ordinary wizard and disrupt his magic power.
This person is naturally the "Spirit Eye Wizard".
The great wizard Yoder always had a fierce look, like an eagle or a wolf, but at this moment he did not dare to look into those eyes. Instead, he lowered his head, and his tone was more cautious than ever before:
"Master Lingmou... we didn't know you had come to this world before... Master Jikui... didn't reveal a word in advance..."
The great wizard Earl standing by also had a solemn expression on his face, with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
He knew that this mysterious Spirit Eyes Wizard had previously presented proof of the Morning Star Wizard's status and had clearly stated that he was the backup plan left by the Mechanical Puppet Wizard.
For these middle and high-level wizards at level three, the Morning Star Wizard is almost unattainable.
They are not only superior in combat power, but also fundamentally different.
The evolutionary sublimation of a third-level great wizard breaking through to the Morning Star Wizard is even greater than the evolutionary sublimation of a wizard apprentice breaking through to a formal wizard.
After the Morning Star Wizard showed up, the two Level 3 Wizards quickly started to imagine what was going on.
In the minds of the two, the Spirit Eye Wizard should appear together with the Mechanical Puppet Wizard.
It was just that after the mutation occurred, all the wizards fell apart and were dragged into different areas, causing temporary chaos.
Now that the connection between the Spirit Eye Wizard and the Mechanical Puppet Wizard has been confirmed, the tense nerves in their hearts finally relaxed a little.
For them, having such a powerful person to "hold the fort" is like having a pillar that can save their lives.
"Um."
The Spirit Eyed Wizard's voice was low and cold, and he only responded softly.
His pale eyes slowly swept across the dreamlike misty area in the distance.
After a moment, he turned around and said in a calm, almost icy voice: "I will try to contact the mechanical puppet."
"You two, is there any way to contact the wizard chapter you belong to?"
The two great wizards were both stunned, but then they reacted.
"It should be possible. We can try to send a signal to contact them..."
Hearing this, the Spirit Eyes Wizard's eyes flickered, and he nodded and explained, "That's good. The most urgent task is to build an army of wizards with actual combat capabilities."
The two third-level wizards naturally responded quickly, and promised to summon as many wizards under their command as possible to return here.
The Morning Star Realm is an important level. Only after breaking through to the Morning Star Wizard can one have absolute suppressive power against the creatures under the Morning Star.
From now on, they will not be afraid of group battles, no matter how many there are, they cannot overwhelm the absolute mass of the Morning Star Wizards.
However, the situations of the two third-level wizards were completely different.
They have indeed entered the level of third-level great wizards, mastering powerful witchcraft and profound and complex knowledge.
But they still haven't been able to step into the real dividing line of "Morning Star", and they are still just "mortals".
No matter how strong you are, you may still be overwhelmed by sheer numbers.
Because of this, for Yod and Earl, forming a powerful wizard army is even more important than the mysterious spirit-eyed wizard in front of them.
The wizard army is their real reliance.
"That's good."
The Spirit Eyed Wizard nodded, his tone calm but full of authority.
He stood on the platform with his hands behind his back, his wide black wizard robe fluttering in the wind.
"Move as soon as possible. This space is an outer plane... For the civilization of the gods, this is the gathering place of extraordinary power and the place where the afterglow of the gods' will flows."
His low voice fell into the ears of the two third-level wizards, causing them to stand at attention involuntarily and listen to the secrets of this plane.
"In a place like this, any anomaly should not be considered a surprise."
He continued, his eyes passing over the war fortress below that was glowing with rune light, "Unless the gods open up the kingdom of God and stabilize it in the inner realm of law, anything can happen outside of the kingdom of God."
"Here, there is a dreamlike space flow, as well as indescribable strange illusions. Time can be confused in an instant, and the world can change in the blink of an eye. You may have just blinked, but the person next to you has aged ten years."
"What's more, in addition to the harsh environment of heaven and earth, there are also some...unique existences."
He paused, his eyes becoming deeper. "Those strange supernatural creatures have no trace of life and no soul. Killing them will not yield anything. But if you are devoured by them... you will truly become a part of this outer plane and will never be able to leave."
After hearing this description, the two great wizards Yod and Earl could not help but look at each other, with shock and solemnity in their eyes.
As commanders of war fortresses, although they have considerable combat capabilities, their understanding of this forbidden area of the gods is still superficial.
At this moment, the explanation given by the Spirit Eye Wizard not only broadened their horizons, but also made them truly feel the terrifying realm "above the Morning Star".
This is the pattern and vision of the Morning Star Wizard. Even a single word he said is incomparable to those third-level wizards.
At the same time, a strong sense of crisis arose in the hearts of the two.
They knew that they had to find their subordinates as soon as possible and regroup the wizard forces of War Fortress No. 13.
Otherwise, if it drags on, their subordinates may be swallowed up by the natural phenomena here, and if they delay any further, they will lose their own combat power.
All wizards in the fortress are equipped with special communication devices. As long as the signal strength is strong enough, there is a chance to reconnect.
After realizing this, the two of them no longer hesitated and immediately saluted the Spirit Eye Wizard solemnly.
Then he turned around and walked away quickly, heading to the command center, adding more magic circle power, and fully strengthening the communication band, racing against time to find every lost wizard.
And on the high platform, the figure still stood silently.
The pale pupils of the spiritual wizard gently swept across the dreamlike clouds of another world. Between the interweaving of light and shadow, an imperceptible depth and emotion quietly revealed in his eyes.
“I’ve come to this area again…”
He whispered, his voice barely audible, but with a hint of deep hatred.
…………………………
In the material plane, the front battlefield of the Eastern Theater has now become the focus of countless wizards in the entire plane world.
It was a vast land shrouded in golden light, like a god's hand descending from the sky, covering the vast territory between heaven and earth.
The entire area seemed to be baptized by a layer of sacred light. The holy golden light flowed like running water, shining on every inch of the earth and every floating boulder, which was extremely gorgeous.
Even now that the rules of heaven and earth have changed and completely become the rules of the wizarding world.
There is still a very unique divine power emanating from this place, as if the rules of heaven and earth cannot suppress it.
At this moment, billions of wizards are gathering here, ready to thoroughly analyze and control all of this.
Outside the vast golden barrier, a dense army of wizards has already been stationed.
Countless mechanical puppets were arranged in an orderly manner like a tide, from the air to the ground, and then to the research array at the edge of the barrier, crisscrossing and forming a magnificent and sophisticated picture of a war machine.
Thousands of steam armors, psychic turrets, and flying reconnaissance bird-shaped puppets patrol and analyze the periphery of the barrier without sleep;
And each wizard research team is either suspended in the air or stationed on the ground, operating complex instruments to conduct in-depth research on this divine land.
And above the sky, huge war fortresses were quietly suspended, like an array of stars, overlooking everything.
Each war fortress is like a floating continent, huge, solemn, and full of oppression. Its complex structure and dense firepower are far beyond the comparison of ordinary floating fortresses.
At a glance, there were hundreds of such war fortresses floating in the sky.
They are like iron gods, quietly watching over this golden sanctuary. Their shadows cast make the entire earth look dim.
Directly above this golden barrier, infinitely high and far away, close to the edge of the sky, a miraculous mechanical structure is suspended in it.
It is a "pinnacle floating fortress" that gathers the essence of the entire wizarding world's mechanical civilization.
If an ordinary war fortress is compared to an armored carriage, then this huge existence is an interstellar battleship that surpasses it.
Billions of rune circuits flowed across the surface of the fortress, as if the entire sky was trembling with its existence.
Under the command of the main brain of this mechanical fortress, the entire front-line war zone was divided into countless grids.
Every wizard, every puppet, and every piece of equipment operates with extreme precision, to the second.
It should be noted that in the initial battle in the Eastern Theater, only ten war fortresses were able to gather an army of tens of millions and overwhelm the entire battlefield.
And now, more than a hundred war fortresses have gathered here, representing not only an increase in strength, but also a full mobilization of the entire mechanical city!
At this moment, the number of wizards, wizard apprentices, and mechanical puppets gathered here has exceeded "100 million".
But this is understandable. After all, under the order of the lord of the Mechanical City, wizards from all over the plane world gathered here.
The number of official wizards gathered in this war zone at this moment has reached an astonishing scale.
There are nearly ten high-level wizards who hold the title of "Morning Star".
And below them, the third-level great wizards, second-level wizards, first-level wizards and even a huge number of apprentices have already filled the entire battlefield like a tide.
With the combined efforts of these wizards, the research on the golden divine barrier that covers the entire area has advanced at an astonishing speed.
Many wizards perfectly combined theory with practice, constantly deciphering the mysteries and rules hidden behind that layer of brilliance, and constantly moving towards the realm of gods.
Among the more than one hundred war fortresses, there are several larger and more complex floating fortresses suspended in the sky at the forefront, and their momentum and pressure far surpass the others.
Those were the private fortresses of the Morning Star Wizard. Each one symbolized the power and will of a top-level being and was the true central nervous system of the entire battlefield.
One of the floating fortresses is the most eye-catching. Its structure is made of high-strength mithril and star energy alloy. Rune lines are spread all over the body, emitting psychic energy fluctuations like stars.
The entire fortress seems like a combination of a witchcraft fortress and a scientific research palace.
Inside the core command room at the deepest part of the fortress, there was a figure standing quietly in front of various panels.
He was wearing an extremely simple white robe, his hair was as white as snow, and his back was straight, but there was no sense of majesty or oppression.
Instead, he looks more like an elderly and gentle librarian, or an old man obsessed with academic research.
However, if a powerful wizard is present, they will notice it immediately.
There were four clear and solid witchcraft radiation marks flashing on his body. That was the iconic energy structure that only a "Morning Star Level 4" wizard could possess. He was obviously a Level 4 Morning Star wizard.
Even among the fourth-level Morning Star Wizards, this old man's identity is quite unique.
Even in the Mechanical City, his power and status are enough to rank among the top five.
His identity is the famous Warhammer Master, a great sage of mechanics.
At this moment, he was compiling the latest data sent by the wizard research team into his brain.
Golden spiritual energy gathered at his fingertips, transforming into countless configuration models that rotated and flew in the air, constantly combining, analyzing, and reversing.
In just a few moments, he had figured out a way to break through the barrier.
"Based on the current model deduction and high-frequency oscillation simulation results..." He raised his head slowly, speaking in a steady voice, "In ten days and eleven hours, we can completely break this divine light shield. The next step..."
As he spoke, he packaged all the intelligence he had compiled into a high-energy data stream and sent it to the top through an encrypted channel.
In that pinnacle floating fortress where the lord of the mechanical capital personally sits.
After doing all this, he slowly turned around, revealing a face full of traces of time.
It was the face of an old man with a peaceful and kind heart, white eyebrows like silver, and a pair of eyes as clear as lake water, yet deep and unfathomable.
His eyes fell on a young figure standing not far away.
"Martha," he said gently, "for the time being, you should stay with me."
Martha, who was standing not far away, was shocked when she heard the words. She immediately showed an excited and respectful look and bowed quickly: "I will obey the master's order!"
Previously, Martha sent Daven to the Mechanical City and took him to meet the Warhammer Master.
And Daven became the Warhammer Master's favorite student, so in the eyes of the Warhammer Master, the little wizard Martha still had some weight.
Now that the two sides meet again on the battlefield, the Warhammer Master doesn't mind protecting the little wizard.
Especially this little wizard seems to have a good relationship with his disciples.
