Chapter 806 - The Avian Monarch and the Mother Tree!

Chapter 806: The Avian Monarch and the Mother Tree!

In Arcane City, Merlin was strolling alone. He thought of Arcane Wizard Setoh. Along the way, he discovered numerous Spell Casters who originated from Setoh Arcane City.

Such as the Nightmare Lord, the Sorrow Lord, the Arctic Lord and so on, their identities were slightly awkward at the moment. Since Setoh Arcane City was destroyed, they had become nomads.

Of course, Arcane Wizards Augustus and Ceci issued an open invitation to everyone. A large number of Spell Casters from Setoh Arcane City entered these two Arcane Cities. However, these Lords did not commit to any Arcane City.

Merlin also thought about Old Man Etha, whom he met upon landing in Blackwater City. It was him who had led Merlin to embark on the Spell Caster journey. Then, it was Wizard Leo whom, through his Darkness Eye, allowed Merlin to escape many dangerous situations.

Following that, there was also Legend Zado, Teacher Blackfire, and so on. Along the way, many of them had disappeared completely. There was only a small handful of familiar faces left around him that was slowly dwindling.

Perhaps this was the reason why Spell Casters were destined to be alone. For example, an Ultimate Arcane Wizard like Augustus, how could there be any familiar faces left by his side?

“The war must end soon!”

Merlin did not know how much longer the war would continue but they must drive the Atlan civilization back to the Atlan Dimension as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be extremely troublesome. With the infinite resources of the Void Zone within their reach, the Atlan civilization’s development was akin to the speed of light.

In such a short period, the Atlan civilization had been able to create the void-level warship that they had not succeeded in the past few thousand years. Such was the speed of their development.

To end this war, they would have to cut off all communication between the Atlan Dimension and the outside world. This way, the Atlan civilization troops left in the Void Zone would not receive any further back-up.

Previously, the three great Arcane Wizards were preoccupied in the battlefield, so there were no spare resources to cut off the communication lines between the Atlan Dimension and the outside world. However, now with Roman, Chronos, and the others, they had enough manpower to cut off all communication between the Atlan Dimension and the outside world. This was the best way to end this war.

With this thought in mind, Merlin immediately set off toward the Arcane City.

“Legend Glory, hurry up and return to Arcane City!”

Augustus’ voice suddenly sounded in Merlin’s ear. Merlin was slightly taken aback, thinking, ‘Did something happen?’

Nonetheless, he was already flying toward Arcane City, so he increased his speed and soon arrived in Arcane City.

“Swish.”

As soon as he returned to Arcane City and arrived in the main foyer, Merlin instantly noticed the addition of two strangers and a familiar face – the Titan Giant of the Giant Tribe, His Majesty Chronos!

“Your Majesty Chronos, you’ve arrived? These two are…?”

Merlin immediately shifted his gaze to the two standing beside Chronos. One of them was slender in build but exuded an extremely sharp aura, especially his piercing gaze, which seemed to see right into one’s soul.

The other person was extremely genial, so upon the first glance, there was a sense of kinship.

In fact, Merlin had already guessed in his heart. The reason Chronos did not follow Merlin back to the Spell Caster civilization the last time was to wait for the two ultimate existences of the Avian Tribe and the Tree Tribe.

“Haha, Wizard Merlin, these are the two ultimate existences I’ve invited, the Avian Monarch of the Avian Tribe, and the Mother Tree from the Tree Tribe!”

Chronos introduced them briefly to Merlin. The piercing gaze must be the Avian Monarch whereas the genial aura must be the Mother Tree.

According to rumors, the Mother Tree was an exceedingly ancient existence. Almost the entire Tree Tribe was split from his body. All the Tree Folks were his sons and daughters.

The Mother Tree was amazing by himself, and possessed a mild temperament. The Tree Tribe did not possess any invasive intentions and always appeared to be peaceful. Regardless, no one dared to underestimate this Mother Tree.

Apparently, three ultimate existences had tried confronting the Mother Tree before. The Mother Tree transformed into his true form, which was a gigantic tree bigger than any dimension, and simply hung in the Void Zone. No matter how much the three ultimate existences attacked the Mother Tree, he was completely unharmed.

The most powerful capability of the Tree Tribe was defense, and the Mother Tree’s defensive capabilities were mind-bogglingly powerful. Perhaps, he was only slightly weaker than the Slothful Beast.

“I see, you’re the Avian Monarch and the Mother Tree. With your arrival, our confidence is further boosted!”

Merlin was overjoyed. With the addition of the Mother Tree, the Avian Monarch, and Chronos, the Spell Caster civilization now had a total of six ultimate existences. Counting in the Slothful Beast, there were seven ultimate existences.

Such a formidable force would strike fear in any heart!

The Avian Monarch appeared to be highly perceptive. He waved his hand dismissively and said, “First, I must make myself clear. Although the Avian Tribe only sent me alone, we must receive an adequate benefit! I need the Atlan civilization’s void-level warship that’s capable of killing an ultimate existence.”

The Avian Monarch’s words caused the situation to turn tense.

Merlin wrinkled his forehead. Truth to be told, he expected as much. A void-level warship that was capable of killing an ultimate existence was irresistible to any ultimate existence. Previously, Roman had already made this request, and this time, it was the Avian Monarch’s turn.

The Mother Tree spoke slowly, “I’m the only representative from the Tree Tribe as well. However, I’m not interested in the void-level warship. Instead, I’m interested in Wizard Merlin’s Slothful Beast. If the war comes to an end, I hope that Wizard Merlin can lend me the Slothful Beast for some time. Thereafter, I’ll surely return it to you.”

The Mother Tree’s request, on the other hand, caught Merlin by surprised. It seemed that the Mother Tree desired the Slothful Beast.

The Slothful Beast was well-known throughout the Void Zone. It was just that in comparison with the void-level warship, the Slothful Beast’s importance seemed to pale. Moreover, everyone knew that they were unable to control the Slothful Beast.

Merlin gazed at the Mother Tree. The Mother Tree was always filled with warmth and laughter, so it was impossible to decipher his intention. Nevertheless, if he just wanted to borrow the Slothful Beast, it was not a big deal.

“Sir Mother Tree, the Slothful Beast is controlled by me, so I’m afraid others won’t be able to control it. I don’t mind lending it to the Tree Tribe but I have to go with the Slothful Beast.”

After some thought, Merlin finally replied.

The Mother Tree did not seem to mind. “Of course. Only you can control the Slothful Beast, otherwise, no one would be able to do it.”

Since the Mother Tree only requested for the Slothful Beast, this problem was solved. Next was Chronos.

Merlin knew that if they did not sort out the rewards now, these ultimate existences would not be united in the upcoming war. So, the outcome could be potentially disastrous.

“Your Majesty Chronos, may I know what’s your request?”

Chronos laughed. “Although I also desire the void-level warship, I’ve already made a deal with you and Setoh. You’ve already helped me find a drop of heritage blood, so that’s my exchange with you. Hence, I’ve come to the Spell Caster civilization to uphold my part of the deal.”

Since Chronos would not participate in the division of the void-level warship, it was much simpler. Currently, the only two who were truly interested in the void-level warship was Roman and the Avian Monarch.

Naturally, this group would most probably include Wizard Augustus and Wizard Ceci! Now that the Spell Caster civilization had lost an ultimate existence, naturally, they would have some inclinations on how to deal with the void-level warship which was capable of killing an ultimate existence.

This was an additional problem to solve. After some consideration, Merlin spoke, “Sir Roman, Your Majesty the Avian Monarch, this void-level warship indeed belongs in the hands of the Atlan civilization. However, once the war resumes, no one knows what will happen. Perhaps, the void-level warship might even be destroyed amid the chaos. Therefore, perhaps we can discuss who the void-level warship belongs to after we obtain it?”

The Avian Monarch cast a sideways glance at Roman and nodded. “To discuss its division without even obtaining it, is indeed unrealistic.”

Roman replied coldly, “I’ve already agreed with Wizard Merlin, so I don’t have anything more to say.”

Merlin was slightly relieved. At least, the situation had been stabilized for now. As for resolving the conflict between them, it was completely impossible. Unless, the void-level warship was destroyed, so no one would get anything.

“Wizard Augustus, Wizard Ceci, right now we need the help from the Avian Monarch and Roman. Above all, our priority is to defeat the Atlan civilization and allow the Spell Caster civilization to heal and recuperate. This is the most important. Everything else is secondary.”

Merlin hurriedly explained himself to the two Ultimate Arcane Wizards. However, Merlin’s concern was redundant. No matter how much Augustus and Ceci wanted to get their hands on the void-level warship, they were still poignantly aware of the real needs of the Spell Caster civilization.

Which were stability and peace!

“Very well, then, it is agreed!”

Merlin smiled.

“Wizard Merlin, this time, I’ve brought with me an army of eighteen upper rank Giant Kings, thirty-nine middle rank Giant Kings, and numerous lower rank Giant Kings.”

Chronos’ sincerity was well-reflected in his actions. He brought so many Giant Kings with him. An upper rank Giant King was comparable to a Great Lord 1 among the Spell Casters.

Eighteen Giant Kings plus twenty-six Great Lords from the Spell Caster civilization totaled forty-four Great Lord existences. This number was even greater than the past glory days of the Spell Caster civilization.

Moreover, coupled with Roman’s gravitational force field, no one below the level of an ultimate existence could pose a threat to them.

Nonetheless, they had to be cautious about the Atlan civilization requesting for back-up from inside the Atlan Dimension. Above all, they also had to watch out for the possibility of the God Alliance joining the war.

“Your Majesty Chronos, how much do you know about the God Alliance? If the Lord God of Light were to approach them personally, would he be able to convince them to join the war?”

Merlin asked slowly.

Chronos shook his head. “The eight largest god organizations that make up the God Alliance don’t have very amicable relationship with one another. Basically, each is doing their own thing. Even if the Lord God of Light approached them personally, it would be futile, unless he could produce something that could tempt the Lord Gods. However, I think the possibility is very slim. If the Lord God of Light has anything that could tempt these Lord Gods, he would just keep it for himself. He wouldn’t offer to share it with the other Lord Gods.”

Chronos did not believe that the God Alliance would be persuaded by the Lord God of Light. He understood the gods too well, especially the Lord Gods of the eight largest god organizations. Their relationships were not only unharmonious but there was also some subtle competition between them.

If not for these reasons, the God Alliance formed by the eight largest god organization would be powerful beyond imagination. What force could stand against it?

“Something that could tempt the Lord Gods…”

Merlin muttered under his breath. A thought suddenly flashed across his mind Back then, when the Lord God of Light was injured and was supposed to sleep for a thousand years, he was eventually lured by the Atlan civilization using a Lord God divinity.

“A Lord God divinity… The Atlan civilization has something that could tempt the Lord Gods!”

Merlin’s heart sunk. If the Atlan civilization could give away a strand of Lord God divinity, they must be able to retrieve more. Now that the odds were not favorable toward the Atlan civilization, they would definitely find ways to entice the other Lord Gods from the God Alliance.
