When Levi and the others returned to the Gray Tower, outside the protection of the blue sea, hundreds of sea beasts were constantly attacking the barrier.
The ground was littered with the corpses of sea beasts and blood was flowing like a river. These sea beasts fearlessly charged towards the barrier.
Most of these sea beasts are controlled by the sea people, who are born to communicate with them. They only need to discredit the wizards as dark and evil in front of these simple-minded sea beasts, and these sea beasts will become their weapons of war.
As for the remaining ones that were not bewitched, due to the instinct of most sea beasts to act in groups, they followed suit and attacked the wizard's territory without knowing what was going on.
Many sea beasts that are rarely seen at ordinary times can now be encountered in the sea beast tide.
At present, it seems that with the protection of the two-ring magic circle barrier [Shelter of the Blue Sea] and the defense of the wizard apprentice, there will be no problem in resisting the first wave of beasts.
Not only that, a total of nine alchemical creatures were also constantly attacking the group of sea beasts. These were the [Alchemical Guards] refined by the tower master. They basically had the strength of high-level wizard apprentices and also used Taishi as their energy core.
Levi and Marco couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Marco, you're back. How's the situation over there?" asked Mylene.
"There is a powerful sea creature and four one-ring sea beasts." Marco said seriously.
"What? Are there strong sea creatures coming in the first wave?" Mailin was a little surprised.
Logically speaking, these sea creatures were the last to appear. Now, it was only the first wave of warm-up, and so many first-ring sea beasts and even sea creatures appeared. Mai Lin suspected that the Star Tower's calculation of the danger level of this sea beast tide was wrong. This was not level three, but perhaps above level three...
"But don't worry, Mylin. Two of those one-ring sea beasts ran away, two were killed, and that strong sea creature was also killed. You have to thank your apprentice for this." Tim said.
"Levi..." Mylene murmured.
Levi smiled and said, "It was only with the cooperation of the two teachers that I was able to kill the enemy."
Next, Levi and two official wizards joined.
These are the low-level sea beasts left over from the first wave of beasts.
Half a day later, everything was cleared up.
In general, rely on the protection of the magic circle barrier.
As long as the barrier is not broken, the apprentices can use long-range spells to attack the sea beasts unscrupulously. When they get tired, others will take over, and they can go back to meditate to restore their mental strength, or drink red and blue potions.
Levi alone killed dozens of sea beasts. If he released his own zombies, killing these sea beasts would be even easier. However, things related to the School of Death are relatively sensitive in the Gray Tower, and Levi does not want to use them. After all, the Ship of the Undead belongs to the School of Death.
Finally, when the first wave of sea beasts receded, the apprentices were gasping for breath, and some even fainted due to mental exhaustion.
In terms of combat endurance, these apprentices are far inferior to legendary knights like Levi. Even the first-ring wizards are not as good as Levi.
Levi looked for some sea beast materials that he could use on the corpses of these sea beasts and collected them. He didn't want the other sea beast flesh and blood, and gave them to the tower as a reserve of supplies for this period of time.
During the sea beast tide, the most abundant thing was the corpses of sea beasts. Levi's scarabs were about to vomit from eating so much. Thousands of scarabs had eaten so much that they were round and could not move on the ground. Levi was afraid that they would starve to death.
These insects are completely ruthless eating machines. They basically eat and poop at the same time seamlessly. Except for sleeping, they spend most of their time eating.
Although Levi did not deliberately select and breed the Holy Armor Scorpions, the quality of today's Holy Armor Scorpions is much better than when Levi first took over.
After all, the worst food these guys eat is sea beast meat, and they often devour the flesh and souls of knights and wizards. It's much better than the food they had when they were in the Scorpion Clan.
Even if all these thousand scarabs were released, even the high-level wizard apprentice would find it difficult to resist, because the shells of these new-generation scarabs were too hard, and ordinary tricks could not hurt them at all. Moreover, they could also bite the spell defense force fields, just like they bit the black air of the great knight. There was almost nothing they could not bite.
Levi estimated that if the transformation continued, the number of these holy armor scorpions would increase, for example, tens of thousands of holy armor scorpions, and even a formal wizard would be frightened and flee. However, his insect control technique was only level three, and he had no way of controlling so many holy armor scorpions, so he was currently controlling the number of holy armor scorpions and did not dare to breed too many.
After becoming an official wizard and learning the "Touch of the Scarab", he can officially embark on the path of insect taming in the Insect School. By then, a legend about the "Insect Demon" may be born in this sea area.
After the first wave of beasts ended, the wizards and apprentices did not dare to slack off. They hurried out to clean up the battlefield and cleared all the corpses of sea beasts, while preparing for the second wave of beasts that might arrive at any time.
Levi looked at the blue light curtain and returned to his home to rest. After fighting for such a long time, Levi was a little tired and needed a good rest.
"But the protection of this blue sea is really useful. It's a pity that the inheritance of the magic circle is too rare. There are five official pharmacists in this sea area, but not a single magic circle wizard." Levi sighed.
Magic circles are a comprehensive subject that integrates many disciplines of wizards. It is also the most difficult subject. The resources and time cost required to learn it are extremely high!
Let alone this sea area, even if you look at the entire Endless Sea, there may not be many magic array wizards who are proficient in magic arrays. Excellent magic array wizards are generally cultivated by some major forces at a great cost. These magic array wizards are also firmly controlled by these forces as strategic weapons.
Levi wanted to learn the magic circle, but he couldn't do anything without the right ingredients. He didn't even have the inherited knowledge of the magic circle, so how could he learn it?
If the magic circle is used well, it will be very useful when you build your own base on the island or your own wizard tower in the future.
Levi no longer fantasized about things he didn't have, but took out the body of the sea clan swordsman from the storage bag.
This sea swordsman collapsed on the ground, like a giant octopus. Each of the octopus's eight tentacles held a sharp bone knife. The bone knife was made of the bones of an unknown sea beast. Although the workmanship was rough and primitive, it was not damaged at all when it collided head-on with Levi's golden trident, and it even broke the weapon of the wizard Marco.
This was the first time Levi saw the sea people, so he was naturally very curious. He went to the library of the White Tower and found an ancient book that had been covered in dust for a long time, "Records of the Sea Kingdoms", which recorded a lot of knowledge about the sea people.
Levi looked up books and discovered that this octopus man was a sea warrior called "Eight-legged Siren".
Only the strong ones among the sea people can be called "warriors", and their strength is basically the same as that of a first-ring wizard.
Above them are the "Sea Clan Generals", "Sea Clan Barons", etc. The social structure of the sea clan is similar to that of the kingdoms in the human world, with small lords and big lords, who are enfeoffed layer by layer and are ultimately led by the so-called "Four Emperors of the Sea Clan".
In short, from the description in the book, the sea tribe should have been a very powerful tribe, but it gradually withdrew from the stage of history because of the arrival of wizards. In the Endless Sea, there are four largest sea tribes, occupying the four sea areas in the southeast, northwest, and northeast, and established four powerful sea tribe empires. The rulers of these four empires are called the "Four Emperors of the Sea Tribe". What shocked Levi was that the Four Emperors of the Sea Tribe actually had the strength of high-level wizards.
"The sea tribe is so strong?"
High-level wizard, this is a realm extremely far away from Levi. In fact, even a three-ring wizard is out of reach for Levi, not to mention a high-level wizard of at least the sixth environment realm.
Above the Four Sea Kings, there is another transcendent being, the Sea Clan High Priest, whose status is similar to that of the Pope in the secular world, and whose followers are all the sea clans in the Endless Sea.
"Poseidon."
Levi frowned slightly. To be called "God" by such a powerful sea creature, this Sea God should be at the level of a Nine-ring Wizard, the so-called "Demigod".
But Levi thought about it and decided that if there really was a sea god, it was not something he should worry about.
If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. This time, the tide of sea monsters, like the previous ones, can definitely be survived, but there will definitely be some sacrifices, as long as it is not himself and the Gray Tower.
"Atlan Empire."
Levi muttered to himself, this is the Sea Clan Empire that controls the southern region of the Endless Sea, and the Gray Tower is in the outer ring area of the southern sea. Emperor Atlan is a supreme power of the Soft Clan [Eight-armed Demon Emperor], and he looks similar to this Sea Clan Swordsman, both are octopus people, but the Eight-armed Demon Emperor is of royal blood, while this Sea Clan Swordsman is just an ordinary Sea Clan member.
"Interesting, it turns out that there are so many races in the Endless Sea." Levi sighed slightly after reading this ancient book.
Then he searched the sea swordsman's body and finally found a storage bag similar to a conch.
There are many shining gold coins in this storage bag. It seems that the sea people also use gold to trade. On these gold coins, there is an eight-armed giant who stands tall and exudes monstrous demonic flames. He has a terrifying appearance and dense flesh tentacles under his head, and a pair of flesh wings that cover the sky and the sun on his back. It must be the eight-armed demon king, one of the four emperors of the sea people.
In addition to these gold coins, there are also thousands of Tai stones, which may have been stolen by this sea creature from other wizards.
Suddenly, Levi found a portrait in the corner of the storage bag. It depicted a heroic female knight. She was wearing a gorgeous cloak, silver armor, holding a giant sword that did not look like a woman could use at all, and riding a white unicorn.
"The Knight of Flowers?"
"Why is there a portrait of the Knight of Flowers on this sea creature?"
Levi was confused, this was totally unrelated.
Levi had heard of the name of the Knight of Flowers when he was still in the human world. In the Shining Tavern, there was a "Flower Wine" named after the Knight of Flowers. Levi thought that this legendary knight was dead, because the name of the Knight of Flowers seemed to have been passed down for hundreds of years.
But now it seems that the Knight of Flowers is not dead? Maybe he has come to the Azure Realm and become a wizard.
Levi was confused. The actual situation was that Pedebiao's father, Vandro, had suffered a great loss at the hands of a female legendary knight, the Hundred Flowers Knight Irina!
After suffering a loss, Van der Rohe could not forget the Knight of Flowers, so he painted this portrait based on his memory and placed it in his bedroom to admire it every day.
The silly son Pedebiao is determined to avenge his father and take the portrait away. If he meets the Knight of Flowers one day in the future, he will vindicate the Eight Swords Style!
Then he collapsed and died, directly defeated by Levi's hands.
Originally, based on the intelligence that Pedebiao had, he didn't think that except for the two second-ring wizards, there was anyone in the gray-white tower who could defeat him. Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, the second-ring wizards would definitely be on guard against the second-ring strongmen on their side, and would not dare to attack easily. Even if they did attack, they might not be able to stop him.
Unfortunately, he ran into Levi, who had just reached the fourth level of the Black Demon Blade and whose strength had skyrocketed. With the Nine Nine Returns to One and the Nine Golden Swords, he killed Pede Biao instantly.
Levi was moved when he learned that the Knight of Flowers might also be in the Blue Realm. If he had the chance, he wanted to pull the Knight of Flowers into his own Knights of Dusk, so that this knight order composed entirely of gentlemen would also have female knights.
In the following month, the second wave of beasts did not arrive, which gave the Gray Tower a chance to catch its breath.
Levi also took advantage of this time to work hard, and just like when he faced the Duke of Montenegro, he felt the pressure again. When Levi worked hard, the outside world was already in chaos.
In just the first wave of sea beasts, two first-ring wizard organizations were razed to the ground in this sea area, and two islands became ownerless lands. After the sea beasts, they will be taken back by the Tower of Stars and auctioned off.
Generally speaking, for wizards who died during the sea beast tide, unless they were important and powerful, the Pan-dimensional Wizard Council would not initiate an investigation procedure for ordinary first-ring wizards. Because there was no need, every time there was a sea beast tide, many wizards would die, which was within the tolerance of the Pan-dimensional Wizard Council.
Although this is cruel, to some extent, the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council also regards the tide of sea beasts as a test for all wizards in the Endless Sea.
Survival of the fittest.
This primitive and brutal elimination method is also the most effective. A large organization also needs regular blood transfusion. Otherwise, with the strength of the Pan-dimensional Wizard Council, it is impossible to cause the so-called sea beast tide in the Endless Sea.
However, so far, more than a dozen second-ring organizations in this sea area have safely passed through the first wave of sea beasts, and everyone is nervously waiting for the arrival of the next wave of sea beasts.
On the Whale Song Island, Morpheus's face was grim. Just a month ago, the soul of Hillcos, their organization, was shattered.
He specially sent people to the Black Sail Island to take a look, and saw that the Black Sail Law Enforcement Council had been razed to the ground by some extremely violent force.
There are also traces of various sea beasts crawling by.
As for Hillcos, he had disappeared without a trace and was obviously dead. He was either devoured by a sea beast or his body was destroyed.
Although Hillcos's strength is not that great, he is also an official wizard of Whale Song Island.
At its peak, Whale Song Island had twelve official wizards.
Now, there are only ten left!
We lost one person in the exploration of the strange realm, and now we have lost another one in the tide of sea beasts.
Morpheus did not think that the sea beasts had killed Hillcos. Hillcos was a first-ring wizard after all, and he was able to protect himself in the first wave of sea beasts. Morpheus seriously suspected that it was wizards from other organizations in this sea area who had killed Hillcos.
Among them, the most likely one is the Gray Tower. After all, the legendary knight of the Gray Tower caused a great loss to Whale Song Island in the strange world, and now he is still at large.
Thinking of this, Morpheus sent a message to Harant, saying that during this attack on the Gray Tower, the legendary knight must not be let go, no matter if he did it or not, he had to be killed.
And in the dark seabed, there is an ancient and peculiar underwater castle.
The castle is located in a hidden underwater canyon. The entire castle was carved out of an underwater mountain. It stands tall and majestic and is very spectacular.
This is "Bitch Castle", the residence of the Deep Sea Baron. After launching the mobilization, the Deep Sea Baron returned to his castle and sat high on his coral throne.
In front of him was a tall and thin sea creature with eight tentacles. This was none other than Sword King Vanderro, one of the four generals of Biqi Castle, a strong man of the Soft-Bodied Tribe, and the father of Pedebiao.
The Deep Sea Baron has a total of four generals under his command. In addition to Vanderro from the Soft-body Tribe, there are also the Ghost Claw Butcher Akin from the Crustacean Tribe, the Yellow Flash Bob from the Soft-body Tribe, and the Red Devil Pike from the Soft-body Tribe.
These four generals all have the strength of second-ring wizards, and three of them are currently on the front line commanding the sea tribes and sea beasts to invade the Wizard Island.
Only Van der Roh stayed with the Deep Sea Baron because of his identity as a military advisor.
"Vander Luo, what do you want from me?" Deep Sea Baron suddenly asked.
"My Lord Baron, my good-for-nothing son, Pedebiao, is dead. I want to lead a team to avenge him personally." Van der Rohe said coldly with a gloomy face.
Not long ago, he sensed the news of his son's death through the soul jade left behind by his son. He did not expect that his son would die on the battlefield at the front line so soon.
Before Pedebiao went to the battlefield with full confidence, old Van der Rohe reminded his son again and again not to underestimate the enemy and to come back alive no matter what.
But unexpectedly, the last time they met had become the final farewell between father and son.
"Vander Luo, I understand how you feel now, but now is wartime, and war is inevitable. Even if my son died on the battlefield, I would not be surprised at all. Everything must be considered for the great cause of the revival of the sea race. You are the most important person around me. I need you to stay here to help me make plans and command the entire army. Now is the beginning of the war. It is undoubtedly unwise for you to go to the battlefield and expose yourself to the enemy.
By the way, which wizard organization did your son join?" asked the Deep Sea Baron.
"Baron, he went to the Gray Tower." said Van der Roh.
"I understand. When the time is right, I will personally lead the army to attack the Gray Tower. A mere second-ring wizard organization can be destroyed with just one slap of my hand. Hehehe..." The Deep Sea Baron laughed wildly with his big mouth full of sharp teeth.
…
The year 1024 of the Holy Era, the month of the furnace.
Several months have passed since the first wave of sea monsters hit.
During this period, there was no ring of existence in the subsequent tide of sea beasts. Instead, there were a large number of low-level sea beasts, which fearlessly rushed towards the wizard tower like moths to a flame.
With the two-ring magic circle barrier, although the attacks of these sea beasts were fierce, they were all survived without any danger.
However, the consumption of Taishi also made Mai Lin worried.
The tide of sea beasts has been going on for several months. After experiencing such intensive attacks by sea beasts, there are still countless sea beasts rushing in like a tide. The gray-white tower is like a lone boat in a storm and may be capsized at any time.
Because the first ring did not exist, Levi had been practicing breathing techniques on the ninth floor of the Gray Tower most of the time in the past few months, except for hunting some low-level sea beasts.
Through his continuous efforts, the Hunchback Dragon Breathing Method has reached its limit, and the Black Whale Breathing Method has also broken through the ninth level.
Levi——
Hunchback Dragon Breathing Method: Level 10 (Extreme), Special Effect: Dragon Spine (Liquid).
Black Whale Breathing Method: Level 9 (347/150000), Special Effect: Whale Back (Gaseous).
…
Inside Levi's body, it was like a dragon's spine poured with thick asphalt, supporting Levi's burly body. The power contained in it was inexhaustible and boundless.
The endurance effect brought by the tenth-level dragon spine has been significantly improved compared to before, and should be three times the eighth-level extraordinary endurance.
This allows Levi to transform into a tireless war beast in the next tide of sea beasts and tear apart more sea beasts.
After reaching the ninth level of the Black Whale Breathing Technique, the extraordinary power finally transformed.
[Whale Back (Gaseous): The back of the swimming black whale can carry mountains, rivers, seas, and all living things. The black gas gathers on your back, strengthening your back strength!]
This is the special effect of whaleback.
The giant strengthens his arms, the red lotus strengthens his core torso, the ostrich strengthens his legs, and the black whale strengthens his back.
Levi's back is broader and thicker than before, with devilish muscles twisted on it like black snakes coiled on it. There is a slight bulge in the middle of the back. This is the whale's back, angular, broad and powerful!
He could feel the surging power in his back with nowhere to go. So he leaned against the wall of the practice room, leaning against it with only two and a half seconds of strength, fearing that if he used more strength, the wall would explode.
boom!
The walls were trembled.
"Iron Mountain Backrest! No, it should be called Whale Mountain Backrest!"
Levi gave this move a nice name.
"My strength has increased a lot, so I will be more calm when facing the tide of sea beasts next time. The Hunchback Dragon has reached its limit now, and it will be difficult to break it in the short term. The only breathing methods that I need to practice are Red Lotus, Phoenix, and Black Whale." Levi breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at himself in the mirror, black scales, frost arms, ostrich feet, flaming body, whale back, dragon spine, blood wings. Add the hump and the touch of the vampires sticking out of his chest, and a total of nine different monster features appeared on Levi.
“Strong is beautiful.”
Levi's face was calm, and in an instant, all these characteristics disappeared, returning to his original appearance.
With the Hundred Faces in his hands, as long as Levi wants to be handsome, he can become a handsome uncle like Earl Silver Mountain at any time, but that would be meaningless.
Being handsome or not is something only stupid mortals care about. Levi only cares about whether his fists are hard enough and whether he can survive in this world dominated by gods, powerful beings and wizards.
He walked out of the gray tower and saw the tired apprentices resting, taking drugs, and recovering their physical strength and spirit.
During this period, everyone's nerves were tense and they didn't dare to relax at all, even Levi.
Levi learned from Teacher Meilin that the tower master would be able to come out of seclusion next month.
By then, the three-ring wizard Hermann will be able to make his debut.
However, only a few official wizards and Levi knew about this news, and the apprentices were all kept in the dark.
After hearing this, Levi was completely relieved.
As a three-ring wizard, you can safely ride out this tide of sea monsters.
I just don't know what the tower master will look like by then.
"Sanhuan, the lifespan starts from 500 years. In the human world, it is enough to witness the downfall and rise and fall of many families." Levi sighed.
Although he had advanced to the legendary level, he had no idea how much the legendary level had increased his lifespan.
Because the way of knights is not like that of wizards, which has a completely systematic theoretical system. The amount of life extension for each link has been continuously summarized and calculated by generations of wizards.
However, looking at the history of the Seven Kingdoms, those who could reach the level of Legendary Knights were rare. And many of these Legendary Knights died before they reached the end of their lives, and there was no communication between the Legendary Knights. Because generally speaking, there was only one Legendary Knight in an era, and it was difficult for there to be more legends.
Therefore, Levi didn't know how long the legendary knight could extend his life. However, it should not be difficult for a legendary knight to live for 200 years without any illness or disaster.
But Levi was not sure whether the lifespans of the legendary knight and the wizard could be superimposed, so Levi had always calculated his own lifespan based on the wizard's lifespan.
But it's too early to worry about these things now. Levi is not yet 40 years old, and there is still plenty of time to break through. In less than one or two years, Levi can advance to a formal wizard, and then, it can be regarded as a true journey of a wizard.
Levi patrolled the island and killed some remaining sea beasts. He also went to see Leviathan where he was hiding. Leviathan was currently safe and slept in an underwater cave all day. This also made Levi feel relieved. With Leviathan, he could run away at any time.
Three days later, another wave of sea beasts swept in. There were also no extraordinary sea beasts. Finally, with everyone's joint efforts, they resisted this wave of sea beasts.
But Levi could sense that after more than half a year of fierce fighting, everyone was exhausted, even Levi himself was a little numb. Although they were all low-level sea beasts, their numbers were too large and the trouble they caused to the Gray Tower was still not small.
The gray tower's Taishi reserves were also visibly decreasing. The second ring magic circle had been open for half a year and was burning money every moment.
But no one dared to let go. Once they did, it would take a lot of time to activate the magic circle again. By then, when the sea beasts came, it would be too late.
Without the protection of the magic circle, the wizard apprentice would not be able to resist for long against hundreds of sea beasts.
In the outside world, some wizarding organizations are not as lucky as the Gray Tower.
The second-ring wizard organization [Mangrove Hut] was destroyed by the attack of the powerful sea tribe.
The Mangrove Lodge is a second-ring wizard organization that is older than the Gray Tower. It has been established for more than 500 years. This organization even experienced the last sea beast tide and successfully survived. It is also possible that because this organization has experienced it, it did not take this sea beast tide seriously. In order to save Taishi, after persisting for a few months, the organization withdrew the magic circle barrier after feeling that the frequency of sea beast invasions decreased. sea beast army to flatten this organization. The leader of the organization, the second-ring wizard [Mangrove Sage], was killed on the spot by the two sea clan generals.
As the first second-ring organization to be destroyed in the sea beast tide, this undoubtedly sounded a warning bell for other second-ring organizations. With the experience and lessons of the mangrove hut, other organizations no longer dared to save money. The magic circle was open 24 hours a day. Many organizations without magic circles were trampled. I don't know how many people were displaced and fled on the sea. But without ships and sea beast mounts, relying only on magic, how long can these people last on the sea?
The sea is the home turf of sea creatures and sea beasts!
In short, this tide of sea beasts dealt a heavy blow to the wizarding organization in this sea area.
On the Whale Song Island, under the all-weather protection of the second-ring magic circle [Blue Sea Curtain], the Whale Song Organization, which has ten official wizards and hundreds of wizard apprentices, stands tall. So far, there has been no casualties.
Morpheus felt cold inside as he watched these weak organizations fall one by one.
"If it weren't for the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council, these organizations would not be qualified to share this ocean with me. The law of the jungle is the truth." Morpheus thought.
…
The year 1024 of the Holy Hui Calendar, the month of harvest.
The sea beast disaster continued to wreak havoc, and looking across the entire Endless Sea, in more than half a year, there may be hundreds of wizard organizations that have been destroyed, but compared to the huge base of wizard organizations, this is nothing, and most of these destroyed organizations are first- and second-ring low-level wizard organizations. Only in the inner ring of the Endless Sea, there are a few third-ring wizard organizations that have been destroyed.
In general, this amount of casualties is within the expected range of the Pan-Dimensional Wizard Council. The real big shots in the wizarding world don't care about these “trivial” matters at all. What they are looking at is the overall situation of the entire wizard civilization.
However, for the low-level wizards of the Endless Sea who were unaware of the decisions of these bigwigs, the price of failing to survive the disaster of sea beasts was the loss of their organization or even their lives.
At the end of the harvest month, Levi received good news from Teacher Meilin.
The tower master Hermann came out and successfully completed the third ring.
