Chapter 757: Confrontation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The pitch-black Void Zone was crowded.
There were Rock Creatures, Light Believers, Spell Casters, and the most conspicuous of all, fleets of ice-cold jet-black wars.h.i.+ps. In terms of numbers, however, the Spell Casters seemed to have the upper hand.
“Rumble.”
Suddenly, the doors of the ice-cold jet-black wars.h.i.+ps opened. From the inside, burly robots with powerful auras surged out. Every robot emitted an aura comparable to an ordinary Legend.
Moreover, on the few larger wars.h.i.+ps, even more powerful robots emerged. The robots produced by the dimension-level wars.h.i.+ps were comparable to Honored Legends.
Soon, the s.p.a.ce surrounding the confrontation was tightly packed with robots. Seeing these dark martial arts robots before their eyes, all the Spell Casters present could not help but suck in a sharp breath. Such a scene would be forever etched in their minds.
Back when the three great Arcane Wizards accidentally broke open the seal over the Atlan Dimension, a brutal war ensued. Dense formations of robots and fleets of powerful wars.h.i.+ps fired light cannons mercilessly. Several Lords were killed during that time.
Many had thought that they would not witness such a scene ever again in their lives but unexpectedly, they were back for a second encounter.
Merlin also led a squad. He was observing these Atlan civilization wars.h.i.+ps. Compared to the empire-level wars.h.i.+p he obtained from the Origin Lord, there seemed to be some changes… However, the changes were purely external. He was quite sure that the essence remained unchanged.
As for the martial arts robots, Merlin was extremely familiar with them, especially the martial arts robots produced by the empire-level wars.h.i.+ps.
The dimension-level wars.h.i.+p, on the other hand, was Merlin’s first encounter. Currently, in his spatial ring, there was also an empire-level wars.h.i.+p. Despite having sufficient energy for the wars.h.i.+p, he lacked the necessary materials to manufacture martial arts robots. Thus, he was not able to produce more martial arts robots. All he could produce were ordinary robots.
In this war, the ordinary robots were completely useless.
Furthermore, Merlin did not even consider mobilizing the wars.h.i.+p. After all, the Atlan civilization possessed even more wars.h.i.+ps, and had more understanding of them. Employing an Atlan civilization wars.h.i.+p to defeat the Atlan civilization certainly would not end well.
This was unless Merlin’s wars.h.i.+p outnumbered the Atlan civilization. However, that would be impossible, judging by the dense formation of wars.h.i.+ps scattered throughout the Void Zone. At the very least, there were a hundred wars.h.i.+ps, not including those that were still emerging from the Atlan Dimension.
Basically, except for the ultimate existences, the Atlan civilization was the most powerful among them. The only shortfall of the Atlan civilization was that they did not have an ultimate existence.
Nonetheless, with the protection of the two Rock Tribe Progenitors as well as the Lord G.o.d of Light, this shortfall was negated.
The three great Arcane Wizards stood quietly in the Void Zone as they surveyed the huge army before them. The number of Rock Creatures dispatched was painfully small as the previous war had already damaged its foundation. All that was left in this war were the two Progenitors and a handful of Lord-level Rock Creatures.
Harming an ultimate existence was incredibly difficult. Even when the three great Arcane Wizards had surrounded and attacked the Lord G.o.d of Light, he was only slightly injured.
With three ultimate existences against two, they only had a minimal advantage. Unless all three great Arcane Wizards were as powerful as Augustus, they would not be able to inflict harm on the Rock Tribe.
In addition, there was the Lord G.o.d of Light. Hence, the three great Arcane Wizards would be completely engaged. They would have to rely on their many years of experience.
Both sides knew the importance of the first battle. Otherwise, the Spell Caster civilization would not have gathered all its strength.
If the Spell Caster civilization was defeated in this battle, then the Lord G.o.d of Light would most probably enlist the help of other G.o.d organizations in the G.o.d Alliance to eradicate the Spell Caster civilization.
If the Spell Caster civilization managed to gain an upper hand, then it would buy them some precious time to recruit other life-type civilizations to fight the Atlan civilization, Rock Tribe, and Light G.o.d Organizations.
Hence, this battle was crucial for both sides. There was no room for mistakes.
“Finally, this day had come. The last time we fought the Atlan civilization, I was merely an ordinary Legend. Now, however, I’ve become a five-Maxim Great Legend!”
Teacher Zado tightened his fist. The five Maxims on his body gradually appeared above his head. One of the Maxims even showed faint signs of near transformation.
Legend Zado did not want the war with the Atlan civilization to break out. However, at this juncture, it was out of his hands. This was not just a civilization war or a tribe war but the most critical war in the history of the Spell Caster civilization, and destined to be the most brutal.
Other than the Legends from the three great Arcane Cities, there was also a special group of Spell Casters. Each of them exuded a powerful aura that converged into sequences of storms in the Void Zone.
These Legendary Wizards were the highly despised plunderers among the Spell Caster civilization. Usually, they plundered dimensions, and killed ordinary Legendary Wizards, so they were despised by many.
Nevertheless, faced with such a critical battle in the civilization war, they still obeyed the commands of the three great Arcane Wizards and fought alongside them. Although the plunderers were despicable, their combat skills were much superior to the ordinary Legends.
Among them, there were also a few Honored Legends and even a Lord!
This Lord was called the Bloodriver Lord. According to rumors, because of the amount of bloodshed and plundering he had committed, all the Maxims he consolidated were blood-red.
He was the only Lord who was born among the plunderers. Nonetheless, Bloodriver Lord was utterly terrifying. He had consolidated a total of four ultimate Maxims, the same number as the Nightmare Lord.
However, even the Nightmare Lord was wary of the Bloodriver Lord.
According to more rumors, every dimension pa.s.sed through by the Bloodriver Lord was bathed in a sea of crimson light. All those dimensions were left completely lifeless. Hence, very few Wizards were willing to a.s.sociate with the Bloodriver Lord.
Nevertheless, the Bloodriver Lord was now one of the twenty-eight Lords who had joined the war.
The fact that even the plunderers were conscripted proved that the Spell Caster civilization had truly ama.s.sed its maximum strength.
“Haha. Setoh, Augustus, and Ceci. From today onward, the Spell Caster civilization will go down in history as one of the many short-lived civilizations in the Void Zone. The Spell Caster civilization had merely entered the Void Zone for three thousand years. How dare you try to occupy such a vast expanse of dimensions?”
The two Rock Tribe Progenitors sneered. In terms of history, unquestionably, the Spell Casters were the youngest civilization. They had only just stepped foot into the Void Zone three thousand over years ago but had managed to occupy a vast expanse of dimensions, to the point that the Rock Tribe had almost run out of living s.p.a.ce.
Throughout the billions and trillions of years in the Void Zone, the Spell Caster civilization was the only one, the most miraculous civilization!
“Is that so? Becoming history? Perhaps, it wouldn’t be the Spell Caster civilization that becomes history, but I’m sure, the Rock Tribe will become history!”
A murderous aura flared on Augustus’ body. He currently held immense loathing against the Rock Tribe. Nevertheless, even if the three great Arcane Wizards were to jointly attack the two Rock Tribe Progenitors, they would still be able to escape easily.
However, Augustus was decided on one thing. If the Spell Caster civilization survived this threat, then they would annihilate the Rock Tribe civilization, no matter what the cost. Even if they would have to bear the risk of payback from these two Rock Tribe Progenitors, the Rock Tribe civilization had to be annihilated.
“Hum hum hum.”
Suddenly, rays of light began to glow on the jet-black wars.h.i.+ps. All the Spell Casters could almost sense the terrifying power contained within.
The war was starting!
