Wizard's Journey

Chapter 414 The War to Annihilate the Dark Empire (Part Six)

With a loud "bang," the exquisitely decorated door of the Crimson Nest was smashed by Kredia.

Green and the Level Two Old Witch followed closely behind, and both dispersed the elemental activated creatures that had only been briefly summoned.

Because the body shape of creatures activated by elements is obviously not suitable for combat in the relatively small space of the Crimson Nest.

After a Demon Hunter Dark Wizard falls to the ground, he will instinctively summon elemental-activated creatures. This is because the Demon Hunter Dark Wizard is still unfamiliar with the alien world during this period, and there are unknown dangers in the darkness of the unfamiliar environment. This is the most vulnerable period for the Demon Hunter Dark Wizard.

As soon as they entered the Crimson Nest, they were shocked by what they saw.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Green was the first to understand.

The ground floor hall of this fiery red nest is over two hundred meters in diameter and is decorated in a magnificent manner. Flame patterns are carved everywhere, and decorative red gemstones are inlaid in the most conspicuous places in the hall.

But at this moment...

In the center of the hall, the towering corpses of the locust-men stretched for over twenty meters, their pale red blood flowing freely and emitting a nauseating, pungent odor.

A level three demon hunter was floating in mid-air above a pile of corpses, seemingly guarding some kind of magic circle. He had an indifferent expression towards the pile of corpses below him, which was a nightmare scene.

"Abyssal moss?"

Green stared at the patches of pale black moss on the pile of corpses, muttering to himself.

The level three archmage raised his eerie green eyes, looked at Grimm, and exclaimed in astonishment, "A first-class medal of honor?"

Green took a deep breath and bowed to the Level 3 Demon Hunter Wizard.

"Master, how much longer will it take to cultivate these abyssal mosses capable of withstanding the purification of the world's rules?"

As Green was questioning them, a chaotic scream of locusts erupted from the higher levels of the Crimson Nest.

"what……"

Grimm's two-colored eyes beneath the Mask of Truth narrowed slightly before he waved to Kredia, signaling her to go and provide support.

Kredia nodded and rode the chimera giant scorpion up the hollow layer of the Crimson Nest. The level two old witch thought for a moment and then followed.

The level three archmage who was cultivating abyssal moss gave Grimm a serious look.

Although several first-level honor medal demon hunter wizards did arrive during this demon hunting expedition, as far as he knew, they were all third-level demon hunter wizards who had been assigned special missions by several holy mark wizards.

As for this first-class demon hunter wizard who possesses the Medal of Honor...

"Since you possess a First-Class Medal of Honor, you should know the ultimate goal of this Demon Hunting Expedition. The cultivation of Abyssal Moss involves three steps. The first step is to use the blood of the creatures of this world to purify it by concealing the world's rules. The second step is to spread the Abyssal Moss across an empire to achieve a localized catastrophe, causing this world to lose its ability to completely eradicate it. The third step is to spread the Abyssal Moss to every corner of this world, triggering a great catastrophe."

The witcher spoke in a hoarse voice, neither too loud nor too soft.

With a pair of eerie green eyes, this level three demon hunter wizard floated above the thousands of locust-man corpses at the bottom of the Crimson Nest.

Some of the locust-men did not seem to be completely dead, and they groaned and moaned softly amidst the pile of corpses.

Such a wizard, to the locust people of the Flame Soul World, is truly like a demon depicted in mythology.

"The length of the first step of concealing the world's rules and purifying the environment depends on the amount of blood. Obviously, as the capital of the Dark Annihilation Empire, the blood of the Locust People is plentiful. In just one month, mature abyssal moss that can completely resist the world's power and purify itself can be cultivated here."

A month?

After thinking for a moment, Green said in a low voice, "But our current mission is to destroy the Crimson Nest in the Darkborn Capital. The soul slaves atop the Crimson Nest are causing enormous losses to the Demon Hunter Wizards fighting in the air every moment. Won't destroying the Crimson Nest here hinder the Abyssal Moss cultivated in the magic circle?"

Beneath the wide wizard's robes and cloak, a wicked smile appeared on the lips of this level three demon hunter archmage, revealing his clean, white teeth in Green's field of vision.

"I have found the weak point of this Crimson Nest. It can be easily destroyed with a concentrated attack of 10,000 degrees. And destroying the Crimson Nest will have no effect on the abyssal moss that is being cultivated in the magic circle."

Ten thousand degrees?

Nodding, there was a Level 3 Demon Hunter Wizard, and above him were several other Demon Hunter Wizards. It was quite easy for them to launch a combined attack of 10,000 degrees.

What needs to be done now is to collect the blood of this world with all our might, so as to cultivate mature abyssal moss that can withstand the purification of the world's power more quickly.

It's unknown how many Level 3 Demon Hunter Wizards are currently cultivating Abyss Moss in the Dark Annihilation Capital.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The howling from the higher-ups of the Crimson Nest gradually subsided, and after things calmed down again, more than ten demon hunters of various forms flew down, throwing one corpse after another into the pile of corpses within the magic circle.

These witch hunters all focused their attention on Grimm.

The First Class Medal of Honor is like a shining beacon for witch hunters, no matter where they are.

"How many more locust-men are there up there?"

After throwing down the corpses of the locust-men that had been lifted up by the power of nature, Kretia said to Grin, "This Crimson Nest is about a thousand meters long, and we've already cleared about six hundred meters of it."

Three-fifths?

After glancing at the pile of corpses and estimating their size, Green nodded and waved to signal the witch hunters to continue collecting fresh locust-men and corpses.

As the numerous witchers took to the air once more, and Green was about to fly upwards from the hollow center of the Crimson Nest, three more witchers rushed in through the gate. Among them was Wiki, who resembled a small giant carrying a giant hammer.

"Hahaha, Green!"

Vicky laughed and, along with two other witchers, rushed into the main hall of the Crimson Nest. The door blocked a giant spider over twenty meters long from entering.

"roar!"

The giant spider roared with its hideous mouth wide open, and suddenly shot out a spider silk, which was skillfully dodged by the three demon hunters who were prepared.

"snort!"

The level three demon hunter wizard who was cultivating the abyssal moss magic circle snorted coldly. With a wave of his magic staff, the soil outside the entrance of the Crimson Nest suddenly surged and then transformed into a giant hand, which grabbed the giant spider.

"The art of large-scale burial!"

After the wizard let out a low roar, the giant spider howled and was dragged into the ground by a giant hand, disappearing without a trace.

"roar……"

Another small soul slave monster appeared, resembling a deformed, ugly rat, and pounced on it. With a loud shout from Wiki, the giant hammer smashed it into pieces.

A buzzing, vibrating sound wave echoed.

Not only the other two demon hunter wizards, but also Grimm and the level three demon hunter wizard who guarded the abyss moss couldn't help but twitch their eyelids slightly.

In terms of strength alone, this guy is really too strong, at least reaching the second level of Green's Wild Transformation!

"I'll set up a hidden magic circle!"

A male wizard with a secondary head growing from his shoulder spoke, and quickly took out a large handful of crystals, seemingly a wizard with some expertise in magic circles.

Green had learned about the side effects of this multi-headed bloodline witchcraft from the wizard apprentice who practiced the three-headed dog bloodline witchcraft during his own wizarding apprenticeship.

As his understanding grew, Green's knowledge of bloodline magic also gradually underwent some new changes.

No magical achievement can be 100% perfect. For every goal achieved, there is a corresponding cost. This is what is meant by leveraging.

The downside of bloodline magic is that it can influence a wizard's behavior and judgment from other directions, but the benefits are equally obvious: it can greatly enhance abilities in a short period of time and has a function similar to developing acquired talents.

This is precisely why, despite knowing the side effects of bloodline magic, so many wizards still choose to practice it.

What wizards need to do is to constantly overcome this side effect, rather than ignoring its advantages.

Even the establishment of the Knights' Perseverance Academy was based on bloodline sorcery.

"Um."

After nodding to the two-headed wizard, Green said to Wiki, "You're in charge of guarding this place."

"Hmm? Okay."

Wiki slammed the giant hammer into the ground with a "thud" and agreed.

Green then turned to another demon hunter wizard armed with the Mechheart armor beside him and said, "You and I will go up there and do our best to collect the corpses of the locust people inside this Crimson Nest, and then destroy the Crimson Nest."

Collecting corpses?

The demon hunter, armed with the Heart of the Mech, seemed to be encased in a layer of metal. He was puzzled as to why the corpses of the locust people were being collected here, but because of his status as a first-class medalist, he dared not question it at all.

With Green around, the level three demon hunter wizard was spared a lot of trouble.

In terms of status, this Level 3 Demon Hunter Wizard is far inferior to Grimm, but Grimm is only a Level 1 Demon Hunter Wizard. Ultimately, the rules of the wizarding world are still divided by power levels, and Grimm must maintain sufficient respect.

Two "whoosh" sounds.

Grimm and the demon hunter armed with the Mechheart armor flew upwards from the hollow section of the Crimson Nest.
