Wizard Immortal

Chapter 425 Situation

"Morningwind City has fallen?"

Adir frowned, surprised and shocked by the sudden news.

How much time has passed?

At this point, less than a month had passed since he returned to Maison from the cursed world.

Just a few days ago, an envoy from Morrowind City had come to the capital and even visited Adir on behalf of Morrowind City's shrine.

But now, the once peaceful Morningwind City has suddenly fallen, inexplicably taken over by underground creatures. This change is truly astonishing.

"What exactly is the situation?"

Thinking of all the changes that had occurred, Adir's expression turned serious, and he looked intently at Andra in front of him.

Seeing Adir's solemn expression, Andra didn't dare to hesitate and quickly spoke.

The course of events was not complicated.

Although Morningwind City is located on the border of Silvermist Forest, it has been at peace for a long time and has not encountered any significant battles for hundreds of years, so its defenses have long been lax.

With such lax defenses against a well-prepared surprise attack from subterranean creatures, the fall of Morningwind City is not too surprising.

Adir was not surprised by this result.

The only thing he cared about at that moment was where the underground creatures' offensive had reached.

Half an hour later, after learning the information brought by Andra, Adir hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, and soon got into a carriage and headed outside.

Stepping outside the gate, there is a straight and wide road.

This road was built specifically for elven nobles. It was neat and sturdy, and there were very few carriages or horses on it. Therefore, it was not crowded at all, but rather spacious.

But at this moment, the road was suddenly crowded with people. Elven knights riding white horses passed through with anxious expressions, many of them looking tired, as if they had been traveling for a long time.

After observing from the carriage for a while, Adir realized that these elven knights were most likely messengers sent from various places.

The fact that the subterranean creatures have launched a massive attack is impossible to conceal. News will inevitably reach all cities and even the major elven families, and without exception, they will all head towards the capital.

Even Adir received the news too late, after all, he had been immersed in the world of destiny for a long time and had not paid attention to the news around him. He needed Andra to tell him the news in person.

King Castor and Kural must have already received the accurate information and may have even formulated a corresponding strategy.

Thinking of this, Adir felt a little more at ease, and his originally serious expression gradually calmed down.

Sure enough, not long after, definite news came from the palace.

In just a few days, more than a dozen cities, including Morningwind City, have been attacked by subterranean creatures, and half of them have already been confirmed to be occupied.

The same was true for Morningwind City. Although the city was located on the border and its defenses were stronger than those of other cities, it also suffered a greater blow. Not only was the entire city occupied in the first instance, but even the priests and bishops stationed in the city were unable to escape.

Over the next two weeks, various news reports emerged frequently, constantly updating the battle situation and causing the surrounding circumstances to change continuously.

A month later.

"Is the situation in Gloria this bad too?"

Sitting in the quiet courtyard, looking at the white scroll in his hands, Adir's expression was somewhat solemn.

Gloria is both the leader of the Black Wizarding Alliance and the inheritor of the snake woman's bloodline.

Back when Adir was in the Dark Wizarding Alliance, he got along fairly well with this snake woman. Although she later left the Dark Wizarding Alliance, they maintained a certain friendship and connection because of their previous relationship and Adir's help in refining the Deep Blue Breath Potion.

At this moment, what Adir held was a letter written by Gloria herself to Adir, which briefly described the current situation of the Black Wizard Alliance.

Similar to the Silvermist Forest, a large number of subterranean creatures have also launched attacks in the areas ruled by the Black Wizard Alliance. However, unlike in the Silvermist Forest, the creatures attacking the Black Wizard Alliance's territory are primarily a subterranean kingdom of black dwarves.

Similar to the surface world, the underground world is not monolithic, but divided into many factions, each with its own goals and interests, and each choosing different routes of attack.

The subterranean creatures attacking the Silvermist Forest were primarily Dark Elves, while the main forces in other areas differed.

However, at this time, neither the Silvermist Forest nor the Black Wizard Alliance was having an easy time.

The underground world is undoubtedly very powerful. Its strength, accumulated over thousands of years, is unleashed in a single day, and the resulting power is enough to shock any force in the Maison region.

Relying on the strength accumulated in the past, Silvermist Forest and the Black Wizard Alliance have managed to hold on, but they are currently struggling and feeling immense pressure every day.

"It's a pity about that World Stone."

After reading the letter in his hand, Adir thought of the jade stone from back then and felt a little regretful.

At his current level, many things are no longer secrets.

When Gloria attacked the Emerald Hand and seized the Emerald Stone, its purpose has now been revealed: to set up a powerful magic array at the headquarters of the Dark Wizarding Alliance to defend against attacks from subterranean creatures.

With the power of the World Stone, as long as it can be unleashed, the power of this witch array is destined to be strong, and it can be used to resist a large number of attacks.

However, this would likely greatly reduce the power contained within that World Stone.

Adir had previously estimated that the remaining power within that World Stone was at least 500,000 to 600,000 World Energy.

If he could absorb all of this terrifying amount of boundary energy, it would probably be enough to support the next evolution of his superpower.

However, at this point, it's impossible for that World Stone to retain that power anymore.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Even the best things are only worth enjoying if you're alive. The power of the World Stone is precious, but if you lose your life, it means nothing.

"What did His Majesty say?"

Putting down the letter in his hand, and thinking about the situation in Gloria, Adir sighed, then turned to look at the person beside him.

Beside him sat an elven girl in a white dress, exuding elegance; she was Adir's wife, Edith.

She sat beside Adir, holding the much-grown Solana in her arms, saying nothing, only gazing tenderly at her husband, not disturbing his thoughts.

She didn't speak until Adir spoke, looking at Adir and saying softly.

"Father hopes you will also participate."
