Chapter 25: A Bitter Battle
Translator: editor3
On the city walls.
The king was clad in a cloak and armor, looking extremely majestic. There were many old mages surrounding him to protect him.
Other than that, there were a few important generals. Among them, the one that the king trusted the most was the commander of the imperial army, Slander. He was a ninth-grade elemental mage and was proficient in battle formations. Slander was the commander-in-chief who guarded the north. He had been fighting the gra.s.sland wolves in the north.

Later, the King transferred him back to the capital and he had become the commander of the imperial army.
Slander was the one who had led the cleanup of the hidden dangers in the capital.
“Your Majesty, the rebels want to use the martial army. It’s too dangerous here,” Slander said in a deep voice.
“This battle is no small matter. I will always stay here and advance and retreat with the warriors of the Faroe Kingdom,” the king said in a clear voice.
His words caused the surrounding soldiers to be moved.
“My lords, I will leave the matter of His Majesty to you.”
Slander knew that he could not convince his majesty. Moreover, at this critical moment, he really needed the king as a stabilizing needle.
“General Slander, don’t worry. If any enemy wants to get close to His Majesty, they will have to step over our corpses!” an old mage said in a deep voice.

If there was anyone in the world who was most loyal to King Farrow, it would be the students from the Hiro Magic Academy.
They were bound to the power of the king. If they did not have the power of the king, the Hiro Magic Academy would become duckweed that had lost its roots.
If they agreed, when the kingdom was destroyed, such a magic academy would also be the easiest to be purged. Perhaps the other ministers and officials could be accepted by the new kingdom, but the mages of the previous dynasty would have to be replaced.
Dong Dong Dong…
In the rebel army formation, the sound of war drums like thunder could be heard.
Countless armies slowly approached the city walls of the imperial city. They pressed down on the imperial city like dark clouds.
Moreover, there was a large group of mages without armor. They were holding magic staffs and were extremely dazzling in the army.
They began to accelerate, accelerate, and accelerate. Their speed became faster and faster. Soon, they broke away from the army formation like a pack of hungry wolves and fierce tigers. They emitted a terrifying magic aura and pounced toward the city walls of the imperial city.
1
This was the rebel army’s mage army. Almost all of them were elemental mages.
1
A fierce siege war was finally about to begin.
1
The rebel army’s elemental mage army was extremely fast, and they quickly rushed over the city walls. Even the magnificent city walls that were dozens of meters tall were unable to stop the footsteps of these mages. One by one, they used magic to fly straight up the city walls.
1
At this time, the kingdom’s mage army also moved with them, fighting with the rebel army’s elemental mages.
Terrifying magic burst out, cutting the city wall, and killing from the ground to the sky.
Elemental mages fell every moment.
Those who could become elemental mages were all talented geniuses. But at this moment, these talented elemental mages died one after another in battle.
It was too tragic.
Ordinary combat aura soldiers would not be able to play much of a role in a battle of this level.
However, after the elemental mage army launched their attack, the rebel army also followed up and began to launch the fiercest attacks from other directions. All kinds of siege weapons were used. They were like waves crashing into the capital.

On the high platform behind the rebel army, the five lords stood behind the representatives of the five transcending powers. They watched the fierce battle on the city wall.
“I didn’t expect that the great wizard Snake G.o.d would leave such a powerful elemental mage army for the Faroe Kingdom. It’s too terrifying,” the representative of the fog temple said with emotion.
“What’s the use of being powerful? If the great wizard Snake G.o.d really dies, without him, the Faroe Kingdom will definitely lose this war,” the holy son of the sun G.o.d sect said calmly.
The five transcending powers had an extremely deep foundation. In the end, after thirty years of development, they had already given birth to a new half-step ultimate wizard.
If it wasn’t for the fact that they were somewhat afraid of the great wizard Snake G.o.d, the five transcending powers wouldn’t have dared to act rashly before they received the news.
This was because the great wizard Snake G.o.d was really too powerful.
The five transcending powers were extremely powerful. Each of them had no less than three pseudo-ultimate mages, especially the holy slan empire and the divine palace. They even had four to five pseudo-ultimate mages.
However, in the end, they had been attacked by the great wizard Snake G.o.d. Each of the pseudo-ultimate mages had died at his hands. Even the most powerful patriarch Bolivet had been heavily injured and forced to sign a humiliating agreement to submit to the Faroe Kingdom.
Moreover, these five top-level pseudo-ultimate wizards were all severely injured and died in just a few years.
The five transcending powers were most worried that the great wizard Snake G.o.d would break through to become a true ultimate wizard.
1
In that case, the five transcending powers would not be able to turn things around in the next hundred years.
It was said that after becoming an ultimate wizard, their lifespan would have a breakthrough and they could live for another hundred years.
“What if Moseley is really still alive?” one of the Lords asked.
What these Lords were most worried about was that the great mage Snake G.o.d was still alive.
This was a true legendary figure. As lords, they were filled with fear towards this person.
“The probability is extremely low. Although I don’t know why King Farrow didn’t die from poison, the biggest possibility is that the Fog Temple’s poison failed.”
The son of the Sun G.o.d sect laughed.
