Chapter 936: The Raging Flames of War (Part 2)

Even after he had returned to the magic tower, that Legendary Master, who cast the Meteorite, still wore an expression of disbelief .

“That’s impossible! The murlocs can’t possibly have such skill!”

However, the facts were plain in sight .

The murlocs had mastered enough means to fight legendary spells . And this ability of theirs could not only be used for defense but also be used to attack .

From the scene of destruction of that cliff earlier on, their means might seem somewhat crude, inadequately refined and precise, but there was no doubt how mighty it was .

That means was also at the legendary level .

On the inside of the Highest Tower, there was a circle of light by the side of the warning array . The middle of the ripple of light was like a mirror, reflecting the scene of the sea .

The dark green color was rippling on the surface of the sea . It was thick, heavy and utterly turbid . And inside the warning array, there were indications showing that the murlocs were dying in large numbers . Following the deaths of such a large number of murlocs, there was an extremely strong aura that was rising .

“Sacrifice… The weak wants to resist the strong . This is the only means left for it to do so!” an old Legendary Master snorted . “Those shrimps really have nothing much to boast of, except for the fact that they are very fertile . They can offer a sacrifice of eight to ten thousand in one go, but still, that’s nothing much to them!”

The Legendary Masters looked at each other with bitter expressions .

A sacrifice of eight to ten thousand at a time? What kind of creature would be summoned!

Offering sacrifices was a very traditional spellcasting method, and it was most commonly seen in summoning spells . It was not unusual for early spellcasters to offer sacrifices to the powerful existences of other worlds to borrow their power .

Before Master Lamperus came up with the “Modern Spell” system, the human’s spellcasting system was called the “Sorcery System . ” This system was best known for two things . The first was that it absorbed the blood of various creatures for powerful strength and long life . The second was that it showed great enthusiasm towards offering sacrifices to the existences of the other worlds so as to benefit from the other side .

When it came to the study of sacrificial spells, the humans were the world’s greatest experts!

However, time flew, and the years drifted by . All traces of the Witch Age were worn away with the passing of time . By now, apart from a handful of unofficial mages who did not undergo proper training, there were very few mages who still worked on studying the sacrificial spell . This spell, though mighty and powerful, was too dangerous . In particular, it was a spell that could easily provoke unknown beings that were unpredictable and difficult to communicate, thus leading to great trouble .

So by now, most mages no longer pondered about it . Even for the legendary mages who were in the magic tower that very moment, most of them were not good at means of offering sacrifices .

At this moment, as they watched how their enemies could possibly put up a resistance against their legendary spells by means of a large-scale sacrifice, many of the older mages suddenly felt a sense of absurdity rising within them . It was like going back in time to a scene that took place many years ago where the humans, with their backward magic techniques, fought against the elves who were very skilled in magic .

Especially the few senior Legendary Masters who had lived from the Witch Age to present day, their expressions were so weird that they were even harder to read .

“In those days… This was how we had fought the elves…” and old mage could not help muttering . “Could it be that history is repeating itself again?”

“History will not repeat itself!” a young mage said angrily . “We are much more powerful than the elves had been back in those years!”

With that, he manipulated the magic array and launched the defense system of the Highest Tower into motion .

A huge gem at the peak of the tower emitted a brilliant light that shone as bright as the sun . Then a stream of blazing red burst out all at once . Its speed was so incredulously fast that before the murlocs could react, it had hit the surface of the sea .

With a loud bang, that part of the sea that was hit exploded . Also because of the high temperature, there was evaporation that resulted in the rise of large tracts of water vapor .

Amidst the water vapor, it could be clearly seen that at least a few hundreds of murlocs had been blown apart . They died so horribly that it was an unbearable sight to behold .

“The biggest problem with the sacrificial spell is that it’s slow . So long as we counterattack fast with slow, we are able to deprive them of any chance of exerting their power!” that young Legendary mage cried loudly . “Even if those shrimps learned our methods from many years ago, so what? They don’t have the backing of powerful gods, nor do they have enough masters to take control and call the shots . Just relying on such slow-moving means like making sacrifices alone, they will not be able to resist the various means of the Highest Tower at all!”

The Legendary Masters looked at each other, and many of them showed guilty looks .

As the years added on to their age, their strength certainly continued to increase . But their fighting spirit, on the contrary, was greatly worn away by the passing of time . This Legendary Master who had brazenly launched an attack might even be the weakest mage among them all, but his fighting spirit and courage had put his seniors to shame .

“You’re right!”

“That bunch of damned shrimps! They think that they have the right to be so arrogant just because they secretly acquired some of our means from many years ago? In their dreams!”

“Let’s teach them a good lesson! Let them have a taste of the prowess of the modern spells!”

“Since they have come to court death, we’ll grant them their wish!”

“After fighting this battle, the coastal region will be able to enjoy at least a hundred years of peace!”

“A hundred years? Haha! After we’re done fighting this battle, we’ll set off in all directions and utterly annihilate the entire murloc race!”

The Legendary Masters went on clamoring as they turned to look out of the magic tower, at their respective area of control . Then relying on their potent magic power and precise control, they cast swift and vigorous spells, one after the other . The surface of the sea exploded and became a turmoil of tumbles . Among which, severed arms and broken legs flew around chaotically . No one could tell how many murlocs died .

At the same time, a piercing warning alarm rang in the Highest Tower . This icy cold and intimidating voice was continuously repeating itself, requesting everyone to drop everything at once . The stronger ones were to head to various positions to prepare for war while the weaker ones had to hurriedly take shelter .

Had the people of the Mifata Federation ever seen something like this? For a moment, many people panicked, and there was chaos out in the streets . People were shouting, crying and cursing all at the same time . Even though the soldiers and patrol mages did their best to maintain order, it was only up to the extent of preventing severe mayhem .

And at this point in time, somewhere beneath the surface of the sea, an altar of skeletons was emitting dark green light rays .

Countless murlocs with insane expressions were swimming from all over, rushing towards the altar .

Once they entered the region of influence of the dark green light rays, their bodies would rapidly decompose and melt . Most were completely decomposed even before they touched the altar and become green pus . Only a few managed to touch the altar . But the moment they did so, their blood and flesh melted completely while their bones were absorbed by the altar, and this integration of bones made the strange altar become slightly bigger .

And such a situation persistently repeated itself .

If it had been the other races, they would absolutely not be able to afford such a loss . But for the murlocs, though they had nothing much to boast of, had a massive population .

Just for this war, they had been preparing for a long time . Especially in the recent few years, the murloc race had been crazily multiplying its number .

Now was the time to use these resources!
