Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy Chapter 601

Chapter 601: Chapter 599: The sorcerer world faces disaster

Land and resources are finite; throughout the thousands of years of the sorcerers' rise, territory has never been freely obtained, offending countless races in the process.

The momentum of the sorcerers' rise was extremely swift, causing the neighboring races to feel deep apprehension.

Races like the Lei, the Black Scale, and the Feather, which directly border the Alien Race, have been seeking opportunities to suppress human sorcerers for years. Among them, the Lei Race has been the most active, but time and again they have been repelled outside the sorcerers world, suffering heavy losses.

Finally, they awaited an opportunity to breach the defenses and charge straight in.

Led by the alliance of the three races, their troops advanced irresistibly. After more than six months, they slashed their way to the heartland of the sorcerers–Truth City.

“Alas! Our incompetence has led to the Botta Blood Plain and the Chanay Continent drenched in blood for thousands of miles, even Truth City has lost half of it.”

“Yes, blocking their advance along the way, countless sorcerers have fallen, and the losses have been devastating.”

“Those Alien Ancient Kings have become increasingly cunning; we simply can't hold them back. We can only retreat according to the previous plan, it is a forced measure.”

When the Alien Race raised a large army to attack the sorcerers world, the sorcerers naturally would not let them succeed. Aside from the important fortresses and checkpoints, they set up multiple ambushes along the way, continuous grand formations, and treacherous forbidden lands; they thought of every possible defensive strategy.

But under the strong sweeping force of the Alien Ancient Kings, the Arcane Wizards were unable to resist, and the result was a continuous retreat.

After the sorcerers' remnant forces retreated, the Alien Race did not spare any. They slaughtered humans and razed cities wherever they went, leaving behind devastation. In the process, a large number of humans who failed to escape in time were killed, or discovered and executed by the Alien Race.

These reports coming back disturbed the hearts of the Arcane Wizards immensely!

Within the Truth Hall of the Council of Wise Men, sighs of the Arcane Wizards could be heard from time to time.

“What's the use of talking about this now? If we lose the inner city as well, how will we have the face to meet the King of the Long Sky, the King of Ten Thousand Woods, cough cough cough.”

Seeing this, the Great Sage Battler Gardner, seated at the head of the hall, spoke up loudly.

Having been wounded in earlier battles and not fully healed, the act of speaking aggravated his injuries, causing him to cough uncontrollably.

“The Great Sage is right; if we lose the inner city of Truth City, we will be eternal sinners in the sorcerers world. We cannot afford to retreat any further,”

“Then let's fight with them. If the city stands, we stand; if the city falls, we fall.”

Battler wasn't the only injured person present; in fact, most of the sorcerers bore some wounds, and not a few were more seriously injured than he was. Some Arcane Wizards even lost their lives in the war.

After all, even with their outstanding combat abilities, Arcane Wizards are but Level 4 beings and are no match for the Level 5 Alien Ancient Kings.

A single misstep in a battle beyond their level could cost them their lives.

Now, the afflicted Arcane Wizards could be counted on one hand, only three left; this was considered a rather fortunate situation. The majority of the remaining Arcane Wizards had gathered in the inner city of Truth City.

“Cough cough, everyone calm down, I haven't finished speaking yet.”

Seeing unrest brewing in the hall, Battler spoke up again to draw everyone's attention.

“The Great Sage has something to say, please speak openly.” Since only one Great Sage was present, the other Arcane Wizards naturally showed him some respect.

“I did not speak earlier to motivate everyone to die with the enemy, but to tell you some great news. You must be wondering why some familiar faces have not been seen, like Great Sage Hardy, Evin Scholar, Great Sage Joyer.”

Battler continued, his voice clearly reaching the ears of those present.

His words piqued the curiosity of many. Indeed, it had been a long time since the three had been seen, and if they were aware of the situation in the sorcerer world, they would definitely not stand idly by.

“Could it be that those three went to carry out some important mission with the King of Ten Thousand Woods and the others?” Someone couldn't help asking.

“It's both yes and no. In fact, the three of them entered the secret realm together to be promoted to Level 5.

Three years ago, Wizard Hardy and Sorcerer Ivan had already become Void Kings, and they left Danaila with the King of Ten Thousand Woods and the Ice Queen to handle an extremely important matter in the extreme beast plane. Currently, all Six Great Void Kings are on their way back, and they will arrive within days.”

Battler didn't keep them in suspense and briefly stated the news.

Upon hearing his words, a sudden silence fell inside the Truth Hall, followed by a burst of uproar.

If the Great Sage didn't mention it, no one would have thought that the sorcerer world had suddenly spawned two Void Kings, with their strength soaring to unprecedented heights.

“Is it really so, Sorcerer Ivan?”

“Of course, why would I deceive everyone at such a time?”

“Very good, truly worthy of the Evin Scholar who always surprises us, really making us feel ashamed. Compared to him, we seem to have lived in vain.”

However, the fact that Sorcerer Ivan is one of the two newly ascended Void Kings is truly shocking.

After being stressed by Battler, everyone believed what he said, and many were filled with emotion, except for Hotter and Candi, who had returned from the Underground World, they only smiled without uttering a word.

They had anticipated this situation.

To a certain extent, they had contributed to it. It's just that Ivan was somewhat inconsiderate – becoming a Void King without saying a word, causing them to hear the news from others.

“And what about Wizard Joyer?” someone asked.

“He's still in the secret realm. The situation is unclear for now.” Battler paused for a moment, slightly shaking his head.

In the past, there were three Great Sages among the Arcane Wizards, two of whom had received strong support from above. It was impossible for him not to have other thoughts.

After knowing the promotion conditions of the three, he felt a lot more relieved. Support is support, but success still depends on one's own accumulation of strength. Otherwise, it would be a waste of a golden opportunity, and the path ahead would become unclear.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the Truth Hall.

“Sorry to disappoint you, I failed to be promoted. I will join all of you to fight side by side, vowing to defend the inner city of Truth City with my life, until the return of the Six Great Void King Wizards.”

The person who appeared was none other than the Joyer Somoye everyone was talking about.

Compared to a decade ago, he had clearly aged a bit, obviously due to the impact of failing to become a Void King.

“Joyer Wizard has arrived just at the right time, now we have even more confidence in defending Truth City.”

“We have the Six Great Void Kings, and truly compared to them, those Alien Race outside the city are nothing but a bunch of chickens and dogs. They will soon pay for their sins with blood and possibly face the extinction of their race.”

“Blood for blood, exterminate their race!”

“Fight, fight, fight!”

Led by the two Great Sages, the Arcane Wizards' morale soared, and they itched to follow the Void King Wizards immediately, to invade the Alien Race's own territory and wash away the shame of the past few months.

Inside the city, the Wizards were prepared to forsake their lives, with all sorts of defensive formations fully activated.

Outside the city, the Alien Race military camped with their weapons at the ready, surrounding the Wizard Sacred Land so tightly that not even water could leak through.

The final great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
