Wizard's Journey

Chapter 999 Desert Scorpion

The world of desert scorpions.

The second crimson full moon hung high in the sky, and three years later, the ominous aura caused by the wizard's will spread to every corner of the world, and the space fortress descended completely.

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

The guardian wizards stationed in this world flew over, passing through the crowded passage made of demon hunter wizards and slave monsters within the fortress. Several wizards, exuding the aura of desert sand, arrived at the Hall of Holy Marks and bowed to the two esteemed Holy Marks wizards seated high above.

Beneath the mask of truth, Grimm's three-colored eyes gazed at the several guarding wizards, all of whom were level three archmages and bore a strong local aura.

The group seemed to feel considerable pressure, holding their breath and their bodies stiffening.

Different fundamental rules of the world lead to significant differences in the evolutionary systems of their biological populations. Often, as resident wizards become more localized over a longer period, they will more or less study some wizarding systems adapted to foreign cultures and incorporate them into their own wizarding knowledge. When these wizards return to the wizarding world, they will unknowingly contribute their own unique contributions to the rich and diverse wizarding system of the wizarding world.

"Where is the ruler of this world?"

"The Kiss of Souls asks."

"Reporting to the great Stigmata Wizard, the Desert Scorpion World was one of the first independent worlds to join the Wizard Alliance on its own initiative. Therefore, it has long been adapted to the rules and atmosphere of the Wizard World. The creatures of this world will not change because of the arrival of the Space Fortress."

The shaman guarding the garrison answered respectfully.

"In addition, besides this Desert Scorpion World, there are several other closely connected worlds nearby that all follow the desert rules. It is said that the most powerful Desert Emperor Eagle World maintains an extraordinary friendship with some great True Spirit Wizards in the Wizarding World. Therefore, these desert worlds hold a very high position in the Wizarding Alliance, and we resident wizards dare not interfere too much."

Uh……

Green looked at the Soul Eater's Kiss. ​​This level six Saint Mark Archmage had obviously not collected much information about this Desert Scorpion World, and was somewhat silent at this moment.

"Okay, I understand. In that case, let's go and invite them in person."

……

The space fortress stood in the sky, and the three-hundred-meter-tall Flame Soul Ten Thousand-Headed Bird carried Green, Little Eight, Soul-Eating Kiss, and several garrisoned wizards away. The aura of the source of darkness was incompatible with the desert rules of this world. A huge and terrifying shadow fell to the ground and quickly passed by, disappearing in a flash.

The powerful, alien life force in the sky left an endless, desolate, and oppressively quiet place in its wake.

"What is this?"

During the flight, Green pointed to a hundred-meter-high sand pyramid on the ground and asked a question.

Within the perception of the essence of truth, the black and white structure of the wires on the face of truth, a large number of sand scorpions were trembling and hiding in the sand because of their group. As for the interior of this pyramid, the face of truth could not explore it thoroughly, and it was all blurry.

"These are sand tombs unique to several desert worlds in the vicinity. Some powerful desert creatures drive their slaves to continuously build these sand tombs that conform to the rules of astrology. On the eve of their death, they seal themselves with their last breath. They are alternative guardians of these desert worlds, possessing incredible power and are extremely strong."

"A rather unique culture," Green nodded.

Only after the Flame Soul Ten Thousand-Headed Bird had gone far away did a large number of sand scorpions, ranging from tens of centimeters to several meters in length, emerge again from the seemingly calm desert, their compound eyes gazing up at the terrifying darkness of the distant sky.

……

"Two distinguished guests from the wizarding world, please make yourselves at home!"

This is a powerful sand scorpion, five meters long, covered in a hard, blackish-red keratin layer. It possesses the aura of a fourth-level world master that undoubtedly surpasses that of any individual creature. On the golden table are abundant and sweet desert fruits, delicious and tempting, and sweet spring water bubbling up from the ground.

Far behind this Sand Scorpion King, a massive pyramid tomb is being built by tens of millions of weak Sand Scorpion slaves.

"Scorpion King, would you be interested in conquering the mountain world with me? With the addition of the Scorpion King and these powerful sand scorpion legions, the journey will surely be much easier."

The Soul-Devouring Kiss sat on a strange fruit that resembled a lotus root, inviting the Scorpion King to join her.

"I am truly sorry, as this great Stigmata Wizard can see, my Sandy Tomb is under construction. I must constantly supervise these lazy fellows to ensure they put in 120% effort to build it, so that before I feel weary of my life's journey and die, I will have a place for my soul to rest."

As it spoke, the giant scorpion manipulated the yellow sand and triggered the rules, resulting in the appearance of a contract of fate.

"As you can see, the contract stipulates that my desert world can only be unconditionally commanded by the True Spirit Wizard after the Alliance officially launches the Civilization War, but the Alliance has not yet officially announced the start of the Civilization War."

Green keenly noticed that within the power of yellow sand and astrological rules in this desert world, there was a faint, mysterious force mixed in.

"Hmph..."

With a smile, the Soul-Devouring Kiss left a red kiss mark in mid-air, followed by the appearance of a mountain heart, which landed on one of the Scorpion King's giant pincers.

"After conquering the mountain world, if you were to place the heart of the world's greatest mountain atop your sandy tomb, I think that would be an unprecedented honor! Scorpion King, what do you say?"

The moment this insignificant heart of a mountain landed on the giant pincers of the Desert Scorpion King, the Scorpion King's dozens of compound eyes were fixed on this dazzling gem, as if it were the most beautiful thing in the world, shimmering with an unbelievable luster in the sunlight!

"Hehehe, a crystal that amplifies mystical power, this guy's taken the bait."

Little Eight chuckled slyly in Green's ear.

"Brilliant and breathtaking, it even attracts the light of stars. It is a tear of a galaxy fallen from the mortal realm by the stars beyond this world. If a heart of the largest mountain could be placed atop the tomb, it would indeed be an honor never before bestowed upon any Scorpion King in history!"

The Desert Scorpion King seemed to see the magnificent Heart of the Mountain atop his pyramid tomb after its completion, and he was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.

"Alright, give me a month to assemble the legion, and my Sand Scorpion army will conquer the mountainous world!"

……

A month later.

Sand scorpions from all over the world are surging toward the space fortress that has been in this world for countless years. Their numbers are so great that they are like an endless tide, so much so that the space fortress cannot carry them all.

"We've reached our limit, let's go."

While riding in a space fortress with the Desert Scorpion King, Grimm issued the order to the wizards stationed at the combat command post to begin the expedition.

With a rumble, the two space fortresses slowly broke through the chaotic layer of the high sky, the Garment of the World, and entered the Void World, heading towards the Mountain World amidst the turbulent void.
