Chapter 1415: Invasion
Translated by Jim
Edited by RED
Since the Holy Kingdom was the Wizard Union’s true enemy, they did not take away any wizards from the defense wall to invade the dwarves.
Moreover, even Wizard Brennan didn’t believe the dwarves would have a way to fight back.
What they wanted was to flex their authority, take care of the Mountain G.o.d’s followers, and pick a new Dwarf-King.
Since King Dunba had died, if the dragons weren’t planning to do anything, the dwarves had no power to disobey.
Wizard Brennan was confident in his moves, but there was one big miscalculation he was making: underestimating the number of the Mountain G.o.d’s followers.
He thought there would only be a few hundred or thousand at most, but there were in fact two million elite dwarven faithful. If they realized King Dunba had been killed, they would all die fighting!
After all, King Dunba knew what he was getting himself into when he disobeyed the G.o.d Ranks.
If the dwarves were going to die, they would die fighting!
Wizard Brennan gathered ten Half-G.o.d wizards, twenty Legendary wizards, and five thousand wizards of other ranks. Just looking at the thirty powerful wizards levitating in the sky was enough to make any heart chill.
They did not teleport directly to the dwarves, instead arriving at the nearest Wizard Union base to reform their ranks.
After they were lined up again properly, all of them began flas.h.i.+ng towards the Furnace Fort.
The Wizard Union had sent out so many Half-G.o.ds not because they believed the dwarves had Half-G.o.ds themselves, but because their famous machines and those twenty Ancient Ground Puppet Kings might catch them by surprise.
After all, the Wizard Union wasn’t trying to end the dwarves, they were just trying to scare them. If they really wanted to wipe them out, a single Half-G.o.d could still do the trick.
Therefore, Wizard Brennan did not think too much about it.
As for G.o.d Ranks, it would be way too much overkill for a race without even a Half-G.o.d, and it could backfire and damage their image in return.
In the past year or two the Wizard Union had met with a lot of misfortunes, so it was time for them to reclaim their name as the foremost authority of the world!
The wizards on the ground continued to flash. Just looking at them was dizzying, let alone those thirty extreme energies in the sky.
The Furnace Fort was five hundred miles away, but the way those wizards advanced was chilling.
“Everyone, we will first penetrate the Furnace Fort and press down every dwarf with our energy, but don’t kill them. Our mission is to get rid of the Mountain G.o.d’s followers!” Wizard Brennan ordered everyone with him.
When the thirty wizards in the sky nodded, they sped up and they arrived above the Furnace Fort before the five thousand wizards on the ground.
“What?” Wizard Brennan suddenly gasped in shock.
As he looked down, he noticed all the wizard dwarves were already standing on top and the ground was covered with other dwarves. They all had fiery gazes in their eyes.
“Mr. Brennan, I feel like something’s wrong!” Wizard Miles blurted out.
“Who are the ones kneeling?” Wizard Brennan also sensed something wrong as he lowered his voice.
In front of the royal palace on the mountain, there were twenty dwarves bound in chains. It was a ruthless way to treat criminals, and was only used on the worst wrongdoers.
Because of this, it was rarely seen in action.
“Mr Brennan, they look like our spies!” a Legendary wizard said hesitantly.
Since they had to know the dwarves’ situation before their invasion, that Legendary wizard was responsible for communicating with the spies.
It would also allow them to pick a new king more effectively.
As for Yoby, they world burn him alive, just like the other Mountain G.o.d followers!
Everything was planned, but their spies had somehow been captured?
Wizard Brennan gazed around and shouted angrily, “I am the Vice President of the Wizard Union, Half-G.o.d Wizard Brennan. I am here at the command of the Union to capture criminals! Any who dare to stop us will be captured as well!”
Wizard Fara flew up from the dwarves as he shouted back, “I am the most powerful wizard of the dwarves, Wizard Fara! The Wizard Union has killed our king and now wants to capture us dwarves? Do you want to end us?” He knew the wizards in front of him were tens of times more powerful than him, yet he sounded confident.
“Fara, I was not expecting you to become a Legend, but do you really think you can take us down?” Wizard Brennan said coldly.
As he spoke, the five thousand wizards on the ground had also arrived. “”They quickly surrounded the Furnace Fort.
As for the dwarves’ Teleportation Circles, they had all been kicked out of the Wizard Union network.
Wizard Fara kept calm. “Wizard Brennan, of course not, but the Wizard Union has no more right to interfere with us dwarves!”
“You are a part of the Wizard Union and you dare to disobey us? How dare you say we have no right to take care of the dwarves!” Wizard Brennan yelled again his voice sharp.
“So many wizards, but perhaps they are afraid to start a G.o.d Rank war?” a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Wizard Brennan suddenly turned his gaze and he was stunned. “Headmaster Abel, the Wizard Union has notified the dragons to not interfere with our internal affairs! Do you want to start an all-out war?”
Even as he spoke, the giant Golden Castle suddenly appeared in mid air, and Abel flew out with all his Summons including the Mountain G.o.d, the G.o.ddess of the Hunt, the Ice G.o.d, and the G.o.d of Black Fog.
With all nine G.o.d Ranks, the thirty wizards in the sky sensed an extreme pressure, while those five thousand wizards below couldn’t even take a breath.
“Yes I did receive your notice, but Yoby, the heir to the throne of the dwarves, has pledged loyalty to me, so the dwarves are now my people!” Abel smiled and nodded at Wizard Miles before turning back to Wizard Brennan.
Wizard Miles gazed forward, and could only sigh.
He was the one who had helped Abel, but in just a few years Abel was already a Half-G.o.d with many G.o.d Rank Summons…
Especially those four G.o.ds. They had all been chained up by the Wizard Union for many years, yet they were resurrected in no time!
“Headmaster Abel, you have no right to do that!” Wizard Brennan yelled again.
“All the dwarves agreed and I have the dwarves symbol of ultimate authority, so the Wizard Union should just give up!” Abel smiled. A little hammer appeared in his hand. It was the dwarves’ symbol of ultimate authority.
“Headmaster Abel, do you know what you are doing? We are not trying to end the dwarves, we are just trying to capture the Mountain G.o.d’s followers and treat them like the followers of an evil G.o.d. After everything is taken care of, we will let the dwarves live on!” Wizard Brennan did not back down. Instead, he increased his voice to let the dwarves hear him.
At first he thought his words would make the dwarves think again, but they did not. In fact the fury in their gazes intensified!
“Wizard Brennan, you must not know how many of his followers there are among the dwarves!” Abel shook his head with a sheepish smile.
Wizard Brennan immediately sensed something wrong.
“There are almost three million dwarves wors.h.i.+ping the Mountain G.o.d. You said you are not trying to end the dwarves?” Abel smirked at him
Wizard Brennan was stunned. No wonder the dwarves had such a big reaction.
If the Wizard Union hadn’t push them so hard, they would not have so willingly become a subordinate race under Abel.
“d.a.m.n the Intelligence Department!” he groaned.
The Wizard Union Intelligence Department rarely disappointed, which was why the top ranks of the Wizard Union never expected so much ha.s.sle to come from this.
Killing a few followers was a walk in the park, but three million of them was a completely different story. Even if they all lined themselves up to be killed, it would still take a long time!
“Headmaster Abel, please excuse us. Our Intelligence Department did not know about this information, so I believe we will need to reconsider our actions to avoid further conflict!” Wizard Brennan admitted carefully.
He knew it was already a reality that the dwarves became Abel’s people, so it was best for him to let the G.o.d Rank wizards decide what to do next. All a Half-G.o.d like him could do was avoid further conflict!
“No need, do you really think the Wizard Union will take back their order?” Abel smirked again.
He came here as soon as the dwarves had pledged loyalty to him.
The first thing he did was lock down the entire Furnace Fort and recall all the dwarves outside.
Afterwards, he ordered Wizard Fara to capture all the spies, and told Yoby to announce the death of King Dunba before declaring the dwarves were now under Abel’s protection.
Abel’s ident.i.ty as Grandmaster Bennett was extremely well-regarded by the dwarves, and they were extremely grateful that he helped them fight a G.o.d Rank war in the front lines. Considering the dissatisfaction they had just experienced with the Wizard Union, it was an easy decision for the dwarves to make.
Of course, even if they hadn’t, Yoby, as the heir to the throne, had the right to dictate the dwarves’ fate.
Furthermore, Abel was a Dragon Headmaster with the Mountain G.o.d as a Summon. They did not feel any less honored to serve under him!
