Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Arrival of Tier 4 Demons

“So you like using the Guardian Tree Scroll, huh?”

Ron laughed, “Luckily, my father made some before he left and stored them in the warehouse. I’ll send you five later, and you can always come to me for more.”

“Additionally, I can privately send you 20,000 grams of Divine Power Crystal.”

“As for whether you want to stay put or become a Support Wizard, that’s entirely up to you.”

This genius named Lor has quite a big heart, wanting to obtain enough Divine Power Crystals to become a Fourth Ring in one go.

Even if he had them, he wouldn’t really give them, especially during wartime.

If something happens to this guy, everything is for naught.

“Borrowing is fine; gifting is out of the question,” Lor shook his head.

After half a year, his Spiritual Power now totals 2,400 points.

20,000 grams of Divine Power Crystals would at most elevate his Spiritual Power to 3,900 points, useful but not much.

Incurring such a huge favor isn’t worth it.

As for the Guardian Tree Scroll, he didn’t mention it much; it’s all accounted for and will be repaid together when the time comes.

“Alright, consider it a loan,” Ron maintained his smile, “Pay it back whenever you want, without interest. How about we just make friends?”

“Fine,” Lor agreed decisively.

The outcome wasn’t out of his expectations.

Even with all the senior officials around, it’s unlikely they’d give him too many Divine Power Crystals directly.

Given that most Faith Wizards have gone mad, Divine Power Crystals are far more precious now.

During the war, prices may not rise, but after the war…

Once Ron and Lor concluded their discussions, the meeting ended.

Lor steered the spaceship towards the Cooper Wizard Tower.

He only needed to wait in the Wizard Tower for Ron to send over the 20,000 grams of Divine Power Crystals and five Guardian Tree Scrolls, and then calmly wait for the Abyssal Demons to cross the Endless Sea and reach Betula Continent.

…

Half a month later, near the coast of Betula Continent.

Over thirty Abyssal Demons, each with distinct appearances and ranging from twelve to over a hundred miles tall, charged enthusiastically toward Betula Continent.

Most of these demons bore injuries, with the most grievous retaining only a head.

The demon with only a head was about twelve miles tall, its entire face dominated by a giant purple eye, looking exceedingly terrifying.

Ignoring the gray, web-like Defense Shield surrounding Betula Continent, the demons relentlessly charged inland.

“Sizzling—crack—roar—”

As soon they made contact with the Defense Shield, their skin felt as if it were burning, engulfing them in searing pain, causing them to howl and retreat.

“Damn, these so-called wizards are truly damned!” A demon with a horn retreated a hundred miles, glaring at the gray energy lines spaced over three miles apart in the web-like Defense Shield with gritted teeth.

The Abyssal Stone Tablet records that during the Ancient God era, their ancestors never encountered such peculiar things.

Typically, once past the Ancient God’s defense lines, they could feast in the Material Plane.

Whether they could return to the Abyss… does that matter?

“Let’s see if this thing can be destroyed,” suggested the single-eyed demon with only a head.

“Alright!”

“Agreed.”

…

A group of Fourth-tier demons suppressed their inner tumult, decisively deploying their abilities against the Defense Shield.

Inside the Defense Shield, tens of thousands of various ships formed phalanxes, rushing towards this side.

Each phalanx contained hundreds of ships and tens of thousands of First to Third Ring wizards.

They moved in harmony, as if connected by invisible threads.

“Our war begins,” murmured an elderly wizard in a green robe at the forefront of the phalanx, gazing at the over thirty demons outside.

…

In the center of Betula Continent, at the towering highest level of the green Wizard Tower.

Ron gazed at the nine light screens before him, asking gravely, “Have all mortals been evacuated twenty thousand miles from the continent’s edge?”

“Already evacuated.”

“Evacuated.”

…

Legislator representatives nodded collectively.

Evacuating some mortals within a half-month using large transport ships wasn’t too difficult.

If they couldn’t accomplish this, they wouldn’t be appointed as representatives by the Legislators.

“Good thing we’re not too close to Murphy Continent; those Fourth-tier demons have just arrived.”

Ron sighed with relief at their words, then immediately asked, “According to my estimation, in about a month, there will be Third-tier demons entering the continent. How are the concentrations of mortals within each empire and kingdom?”

For him, the most crucial task now is protecting mortals.

If done well, there will be significant rewards post-war.

If poorly executed, severe punishment will follow.

Even though his father is Speaker Warren, he can’t escape.

“I’ve completed the migrations for Hammer Kingdom, Moon Mountain Kingdom… and others.”

“I have…”

“I…”

…

While listening to each Wizard Tower’s task progress, Ron calculated silently whether there’s enough time to concentrate all the mortals.

After all representative legislators finished reporting, he simultaneously completed the calculation and immediately said:

“Allen representative, deploy a fifth of the ships to aid Barry in evacuating mortals.”

“Jonash representative, deploy a seventh of the ships to…”

…

“Understood.”

“Got it.”

All representative legislators had no objections to Ron’s arrangements, recognizing his acknowledged abilities.

…

The fifty-seventh floor of the Cooper Wizard Tower.

Lor absorbed the last piece of Divine Power Crystal, exhaling softly as his Sea of Consciousness swelled nearly double in Spiritual Power.

With his current Spiritual Power, he can fully exert the extreme strength of the Meteor Technique combined with the Gravity Technique, a 3.6 Ring potency.

“The necessary preparations are complete; now it’s just a question of when the Abyssal Demons will invade,” Lor extended his perception outside the Wizard Tower, observing the busier than usual ships, feeling a surge of excitement.

He had once promised himself to truly rise in this era.

Now, he’s taken the first step.

As long as there are enough resources, his rise will be a hundred or a thousand times faster than other wizards.

For him, war is both a crisis and an opportunity.

While Lor envisioned the future, there was a commotion from the Continent Communication Device in his Space Ring.

He took it out to check and immediately connected upon seeing it was Bruno’s message.

“Lor Wizard, the Fourth-tier demons have reached the outside of the continent and started battling with single Elemental Mages,” said Bruno respectfully, “Representative Ron mentioned that in about a month, Third-tier demons will invade the continent.”

“If you insist on being a Support Wizard, please be prepared.”

“Alright, understood,” Lor nodded, then asked, “Have you arranged for Levan and the others?”
