The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 268: Salamander's Strange Path

After solving Talhe's problem, Richard came to the umbrella cover of the World Mushroom. This area is the "holy land" of the Holy Tree Elves. Except for the holy city built by the Holy Tree Elves, there are no buildings in this area, and even the flower buds of the Holy Tree Elves have been moved out.

In a bird's nest in the center of the holy city, a black crow was sleeping soundly.

Ulises's judgment back then was somewhat wrong. He predicted a dozen years, but he has now been sleeping for nearly thirty years.

During these thirty years, the energy fluctuations in Ulysses' body continued to rise. According to Richard's prediction, today, the energy in Ulysses' body will reach the limit of a level three creature.

If this node doesn't wake up, Richard can only prepare for the worst - Ulysses may very well sleep until he becomes the master of the world.

Looking at the Black Crow whose energy fluctuations were gradually increasing in intensity, all Richard could do was pray and wait. Since Ulysses was also a "god", Richard could only wait.

hum!
A violent energy wave emanated from Ulysses' body, instantly creating a magical breeze in the secret realm.

In an instant, Richard suddenly had a hallucination.

A pitch-black, terrifying beast roared toward the sky, its voice almost shattering the space. It spread its wings, and countless black crows emerged from its wings that covered the sky and the sun, swallowing up the entire sky like the night.

“This is…Ulises?”

Richard looked at the terrifying beast in his hallucination, and a trace of shock flashed through his heart.

Sure enough, every world master is a terrifying creature.

The illusion gradually dissipated before Richard's eyes. He felt his shoulders sink and Ulysses's hoarse voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Gah, I had a really comfortable sleep. I feel much better."

"Really?" Richard suppressed his excitement and said calmly, "You slept for thirty years. I almost thought you were going to sleep until your injuries recovered."

"Huh, thirty years!?" Ulysses said in astonishment.

"Then you guys are almost done with the battle!"

"That's about right. The last Fire Lizard King has just been driven away. It is estimated that he will never return to the Red Sun World in this lifetime. After the remaining Fire Lizard resistance forces in the Red Sun World are wiped out, this war will be over."

"Gah, so fast? You wizards are quite efficient."

Ulysses was surprised at the speed with which the wizard dealt with the Salamander King, but before he could finish being surprised, the changes in the secret realm surprised him again.

"Gah, why are there so many fire lizards in the secret realm? Are you raising them?"

Ulises looked at Richard, his face showing three parts of embarrassment and seven parts of shamelessness.

"Gah, you're too polite. Just let the old mushroom preserve your brain. Why are you cultivating it?"

Richard couldn't help but frown after listening to Ulises's vicious words.

"These are not for you to eat. They are the employees I have recruited over the years. They are all technical talents!"

Ulises said a little disappointedly: "Gah, I thought you had prepared a surprise for me."

However, his disappointment did not last long, because the next moment the World Mushroom conveyed a spiritual message to Ulysses.

Richard still remembered what Ulysses said.

Although he had been capturing slaves over the years, he collected the heads of the fire lizards he killed in the process and gave them to the World Mushroom.

There were enough heads for Ulises to eat to his heart's content.

"Gah, that's very righteous! Then I'm going to go eat to my heart's content."

Richard nodded: "It's up to you. Remember to come out after you finish eating. I need you to escort me to a place."

"Gah, no problem at all."

……

The defeat of Morik, the king of the Salamanders, was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Salamanders' resistance. The biggest support for the Salamanders to hold on until now was Morik, who had not yet returned.

Now that Morik had fled, the Salamanders had no hope of ever expelling the wizard.

In the Yagilite Mountains of the Minar Empire, the remaining high-ranking officials of the Salamander Empire looked at the sky with pale faces.

Although they had anticipated this possibility in their hearts, when they actually saw this scene, they realized that their beliefs were not enough to support them to accept this result.

Pfft!

A fire lizard general slashed his own neck with a knife, and the spurting blood dyed the surrounding fire lizards red.

Harash lowered his head expressionlessly and said in a flat voice:

"Let's go back, there's nothing to see anymore."

After saying that, Harash walked into the cave behind him without looking back.

Deep in the cave, Azuhan, with an expressionless face, was waiting for his father in the conference room.

rumbling...

The stone door of the conference room was pushed open, and Harash walked into the room calmly, then closed the stone door. The moment the stone door closed, Harash fell heavily to the ground like a puppet that had lost its support.

He used his arms to prop himself up, but his arms were shaking badly.

Salamander is finished.

Azuhan walked over and helped his father up from the ground.

"How is Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Harash suddenly asked.

Azuhan shook his head: "She is asleep and doesn't know what's going on outside."

Azuhan helped Harash to the nearest chair. He could feel his father's body shaking.

Sitting on the chair, Harash's eyes were empty and his face was blank. Azuhan had never seen his father with such an expression.

Azuhan sat opposite Harash, and at this moment he was also worried. The Salamander clan had lost hope, and all that was left was a lingering survival and a future of destruction.

"Father, activate the Spark Project."

“… Enable it.”

Harash stood up again, and several Salamander generals pushed the door open.

Seeing Harash, a general shouted nervously:

"My Lord Marshal, the fire lizards below can no longer be controlled. They want to fight to the death with the wizards." The remaining rebels are the elite among the fire lizards and also the most stubborn "free men".

They would rather die than live as slaves of the wizard.

Now that the hope of expelling the wizard has been completely shattered, the best outcome that this group of already somewhat crazy fire lizards can think of is to die gloriously on the battlefield.

"Okay, I understand. Tell them not to move yet. I will personally lead them out later."

"Ah!" The two Salamander generals looked at Harash in astonishment. They did not expect to get such an answer.

"Marshal, you..."

Harash looked at the two Salamander generals in front of him and asked calmly:
"Any questions?"

A general said, "Marshal, they can give up, but you must not give up. His Majesty Morik has not died in the battle, we still have hope..."

Pfft!
A huge amount of blood gushed out from the broken neck of the Salamander General. Harash held the Salamander General's head and looked at the other general expressionlessly.

"Do you still have any questions?"

The remaining general was so frightened that he kept retreating. His face was terrified and he opened and closed his mouth but could not utter a word.

Harash is crazy! He actually killed a Salamander General just because of a disagreement!
Harash walked up to him expressionlessly and said in an extremely calm tone:

"If there is no problem, just follow the order."

General Salamander nodded frantically, then fled from the meeting room.

Azuhan walked up to Harash and asked softly:
"Father, have you decided?"

Although Azuhan's eyes were calm, the pleading in them could not escape Harash's eyes.

Azuhan hopes he will change his mind.

"Azuhan, you have grown up."

Harash touched Azuhan's head vigorously, just like he did when Azuhan was a child.

“Adults need to take charge and shoulder those responsibilities.

I am already an old man, and there are some responsibilities that I cannot shoulder, nor do I want to shoulder.

Besides, what the new world needs is seeds, and an old guy like me would be a hindrance if I go there."

Harash spoke in a very cheerful tone, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He looked at Azuhan with a relieved smile on his face.

But Azuhan lowered his head, tears streaming down his eyes.

"Azuhan, you can't cry, especially as a leader!"

Harash's voice suddenly became stern, just like when he was scolding Azuhan in the past.

Azuhan raised his head, his golden dragon eyes were bloodshot, and the sadness in them was as deep as the ocean.

Harash looked serious:

"Azuhan, the future of the fire lizards is in your hands. I don't care what methods you use, even if you go to the wizard and become the most shameful traitor!

The Salamander clan must also be allowed to continue!
Now I want you to tell me, do you have this awareness? "

Azuhan choked with sobs:

"Have!"

"very good."

Harash showed a satisfied smile, patted Azuhan on the shoulder, and spoke with expectation and blessing:
"The future of Salamanders is in your hands."

Azuhan watched Harash stride out of the conference room, his steps as brisk as when he was summoned by the Salamander King.

That year, he became a Silver Horn noble from a Dragon Warrior, and defeated Balasar, the talented general of the Linksa Empire, on the battlefield.

Harash was like this that day, walking briskly with a smile on his face.

Azuhan stood there, watching his father's figure gradually disappear at the end of the cave.

He knew that this farewell would be forever.

Then he turned and left from the other side of the meeting room.

……

The Chiyang World Expedition Record states:

On the third day after the Salamander King Morik was expelled by the Great Wizards Qingshuang and Hellfire, the Salamander rebels hidden in the Yagilit Mountains launched a decisive battle.

In this battle, the Salamanders were led by Harash, the former Marshal of the Morik Empire. A total of 1,572 wizards were killed. All the Salamanders were killed in the battle, and no one survived or was enslaved.

This battle announced that the expedition to the Chiyang World had come to an end, and the Chiyang World had been incorporated into the territory of the great wizard civilization.

……

An underground lava lake and lava sea at the edge of the Yagilite Mountains.

On the lava lake, a huge metal object that looked like a golden shuttle was floating quietly. Then, several fire lizards wearing space suits emerged from the lava sea.

One of them removed his bizarre costume, revealing a Morik Shield uniform underneath.

He quickly walked to a salamander on the shore and reported in a low voice:

"Lord Azuhan, the New World Fleet has been commissioned."

Azuhan nodded slightly: "I understand."

He turned his head to look at the direction of the decisive battle and said in an imperceptible voice:

"Father, goodbye."

The fire lizard beside him didn't hear Azuhan's voice clearly, and asked quickly:
"What did you say, my lord?"

Azuhan shook his head:
“Nothing, notify Spark to board the ship.

We are going to the New World!"
