450 Crazy (1/2)

As a leader, Thorne Merlin, who was killing Elemental lifeforms at the edge of the fort, let out a relieved sigh. He had felt restless before Lin Yun's arrival. After all, there were too many enemies, and even with him leading this unprecedentedly powerful Planar Legion, he wasn't too confident about prevailing over so many enemies.

Suffering a defeat was equal to losing the Flame Demon Fort, and to Thorne, who was rarely defeated, it would be a disgrace.

Fortunately, Mafa Merlin led the Planar Legion over at an opportune time, which stabilized the situation. With his experience in Planar Wars, he came to the conclusion that the Flame Demon Fort was in no danger and that they should just deal with the enemies there. It likely wouldn't take long before they were victorious.

He slashed with his sword, his sword aura ripping apart over a dozen Ash Spirits. Suddenly, three silhouettes flew out from the fort and headed straight towards that endless Elemental Legion.

”He… He is crazy!”

Thorne was shaken and almost forgot to continue using his sword. He had recognized one of the three individuals that flew out of the fort. It was Mafa Merlin, while the other two were Archmages from the Ancestral Land.

'He is definitely making trouble!'

Thorne's expression suddenly became sour. He was filled with fury, but he couldn't go deal with the matter. The sword in his hand kept slashing at the approaching Ash Spirits, tearing them apart.

The outcome of the battle was promising, and after the two Planar Legions joined up, they had thoroughly reversed the battle situation. But there were too many Elemental lifeforms. If they rashly pushed into the enemy lines, they would be surrounded by waves of Elemental lifeforms, putting them in huge danger. With his decades of experience, he knew that they could only fight defensively in such circumstances. Defending and counter attacking; only like that could they preserve the Flame Demon Fort.

'What is that scoundrel Mafa Merlin doing? He actually dares to take two Archmages with him and charge into the Elemental lifeforms' main force?'

Thorne truly couldn't understand how such a brainless guy could have been appointed to the Raging Flame Plane by the Family Council.

He suddenly thought, 'That guy just became a member of the Family Council! Is he trying to do something bold to establish his status as a Representative? Although he does need to consolidate his position, the situation has to be taken into account…'

In fact, Thorne's mood had been very complicated when he saw Lin Yun take two Archmages out of the Flame Demon Fort. It was the damned scoundrel that crippled his son, after all. They had an irreconcilable hatred, and Thorne had resisted the urge to attack Lin Yun several times when he saw him before. He would definitely be very happy if Lin Yun died fighting the Elemental Legion.

But the situation was a bit special now...

He had experienced Lin Yun's strength several months ago. By relying on the two Magic Tools, this young mage able to contend against a 5th Rank Sword Saint like himself. In the dangerous Raging Flame Plane, Mafa Merlin's power could be considered at the top and could even reverse the battle situation. This was also why he sighed in relief when he saw Lin Yun and the Planar Legion coming to reinforce him earlier.

Although he loathed Mafa Merlin, he had no choice but to admit that this scoundrel wasn't weak. He would play a critical role in this Planar War. If they lost such a powerhouse, the Merlin Family Planar Legion would have to act much more carefully.

This was the reason that Thorne was in a complicated mood. Although he loathed Mafa Merlin, he didn't want him to die straight away. They had to win this Planar War in the Raging Flame Plane before he died.

Thorne was very scared and on edge at this moment. He had been fighting the Elemental Legion since he first reached the Flame Demon Fort. He clearly knew how frightening those Elemental lifeforms were. If Mafa Merlin was surrounded, then even if they were comparable in strength, it would be hard for him to escape. After all, no matter how powerful a mage was, they would still eventually suffer from mana exhaustion. Thorne felt that Mafa Merlin might really not be able to return to the fort when faced with the endless attacks of countless Elemental lifeforms.

”Heavens, those three are courting death! Could it be that they do not know how frightening the Elemental Legion is? They actually dared to rush straight at them…”

Thorne wasn't the only one who had noticed, the Merlin Family's forces were in the middle of a counterattack, and thus, several thousand members of the Planar Legion could see those three shadows. Many of them were startled speechless.

That really was suicidal.

”That young mage looked like High Mage Mafa Merlin, and the other two were Sir Ida and Sir Yuri…”

The group that followed Thorne to the Raging Flame Plane first naturally didn't recognize Lin Yun, but the ones that had just arrived did recognize him. Let alone the High Mages, even Expert Swordsmen recognized him. Rushing out like that was extremely dangerous.

For a moment, almost everyone in the battlefield was focused on Lin Yun. They weren't shocked by his boldness, but rather were looking down on him, because they could see that this young mage wasn't doing anything after being surrounded by the Elemental Legion. He was actually just hiding behind the two Archmages!

Not making a move in such a situation was not good, even if he was a Commander!
