Chapter 921 - 921 Envoy (1/2)

921 Envoy

Larieth smiled and promptly nodded.

“Rest assured, Sir Dubois, I’ll personally take care of this matter. That damned clown definitely won’t dare to disobey your command.”

Larieth immediately rushed to the Teleportation Gate after leaving the room.

‘The Four Seasons Plain is such a good place… That damned Mafa Merlin, the Merlin Family has put such little strength into the Raging Flame Plane, yet he unexpectedly dares to occupy the Four Seasons Plain.

‘He is truly lucky. I don’t know how he attacked the Grey Beastmen and made them serve him. Those grey-skinned midgets are useless for anything else other than alchemy, but they have so many puppets, and even a low-level puppet can be used for mining…

‘Hmpf, that Mafa Merlin was lucky last time and wasn’t killed by Sir Dubois, but that experience should have destroyed his courage. Now that Sir Dubois gave an order, would he still dare to disobey?’

Larieth obtained Dubois’s nod of approval and promptly rushed to the Four Seasons Plain.

When he left the Teleportation Gate, Larieth specially picked a fort outside the Four Seasons Plain instead of entering the place directly. He used Flight the entire time to reach the Grey Beastmen’s fort. That way, he could study the situation of the Four Seasons Plain.

The Four Seasons Plain had a gentle climate and was covered with rivers. Just by rushing along, he discovered many forests rich in magic plants and medicinal herbs, as well as many ore veins buzzing with activity. A large number of puppets were tirelessly working to extract all these resources.

Seeing that, Larieth’s eyes turned red…

As a 9th Rank Archmage, although he came from the Black Tower, he didn’t have a great background, and he wasn’t particularly powerful for his rank. If he hadn’t recently advanced to the 9th Rank, he might not have gotten involved in the Raging Flame Plane’s events.

He had been gathering wealth and exchanging many precious materials for a while now. He wanted to look for one of the Artisans of the Andlusa Kingdom to forge a True Spirit Magic Tool that could suit his own Meditation Law Set, but his Magic Conducting Rune and Meditation Law Set were relatively unknown. The materials he needed were all precious and valuable.

Until now, he had yet to gather enough materials and hadn’t bonded with a True Spirit Magic Tool. That was why his strength was leaning towards the weaker side within his rank.

Looking at the captured Four Seasons Plain, as well as the wealth gathered there every day, Larieth was very displeased.

Moreover, with the grievances between Lin Yun and the Black Tower’s Heaven Rank powerhouse, Dubois, Larieth immediately took this opportunity to push the matter. And sure enough, Dubois was very shocked and unhesitantly wanted to take away the Four Seasons Plain.

He flew all the way to the Grey Beastmen’s fort, and from afar, Larieth saw a rune floating above the fort.

That was a Nesser Rune indicating that it wasn’t possible to fly over the fort.

This rune would appear in some human cities, but it was useless against anyone at the Heaven Rank. Only those below the Heaven Rank would be unable to fly above such a city.

Larieth noticed the floating rune, but he didn’t take it seriously.

In human cities, that rune was a warning sign because there would be a Sky-Sealing Array set up within the city. Anyone below the Heaven Rank that wanted to fly in an affected area would not be able to.

And the Grey Beastmen’s fort definitely wouldn’t have something like the Sky Sealing Array. With only a warning rune, how could Larieth mind it? He had come to show his power to intimidate Mafa Merlin into giving up the Four Seasons Plain, so he had no intention of backing down.

But when Larieth rushed over, the anti-air magic towers set up on the city walls all changed direction.

Within three seconds, at least twenty of those magic towers aimed at Larieth.

In an instant, twenty purple lights shot out, with fire and ice curling around each of the lights.

Larieth widened his eyes in shock and he immediately cast his Runic Shield before rapidly flying towards the ground.

The purple lights were like bolt spells, closely followed by the characteristic radiance of fire and ice magic as they exploded at Larieth’s previous location.

Suddenly, spatial fluctuations filled the air, quickly followed by a shimmering flash that swept across several hundred meters.

Larieth was affected by it and felt his Flight spell being forcibly scattered as the huge explosions kept pounding against his Runic Shield.

Larieth’s face paled as he fell down. He didn’t even dare to use Featherfall right away, letting himself fall near the ground before quickly casting a Featherfall at the last moment, allowing him to slowly float down.

He looked very unsightly as he glared at the anti-air magic towers on the city walls.

He hadn’t expected the Grey Beastmen’s fort to have so many anti-air magic towers. Every single one of those magic towers was an anti-air magic tower, and they all truly dared to attack him!

‘I’m clearly wearing a robe with the design of the Black Tower, and I’m obviously a human! That damned Mafa Merlin, he actually dared to shoot before asking anything!

‘If not for my quick reaction, that explosion would have left me at the brink of death!’
