Chapter 561: Green-Skinned Garth

Chapter 561: Green-Skinned Garth

As a mage who had undergone body tempering experiments and favored close-quarters combat, Sein remained unfazed by the sight of blood and the chaotic elemental energies around him.

This astonished many on the battlefield.

The knights quickly devolved into a frenzied state of slaughter.

Despite being on the front lines, Sein maintained the composure expected of a spellcaster.

As he flew toward the battlefield’s center, he deliberately navigated toward the area where Jeremy the Rank One knight was located, steering clear of the most intense conflict at the center.

That area was where creatures of Rank One and above—the elite of the Thunderfall World’s forces—were fighting.

The first to engage with these ranked Garths were the strongest among the enslaved creatures legion, along with a few knights who were extremely confident in their own strength.

Sein was not avoiding that section because he was a coward; he merely preferred to join when things were less intense there.

The Rank Three Sky Knight, who previously rallied thousands, had already reached the heart of the battlefield, fighting a purple-skinned Garth standing on the back of a behemoth.

It wore a crown atop its head and its body was marked with peculiar patterns, indicating its significant status among the other Garths in the Thunderfall World.

As soon as the battle erupted, Yuri materialized at Sein’s side, serving as his loyal guard.

After some deliberation, Sein released another four sea lizards.

These creatures had not attained Rank One yet and, in a war of this scale, they were merely cannon fodder.

Without facing struggles and gaining experience, these hatchlings would never truly grow.

Merely feeding them high-quality flesh would result in nothing more than four overfed pigs, rather than the battle-hardened allies Sein required to lighten his burden.

This was the sea lizards’ first taste of an interplanar war, a melee involving nearly two hundred thousand from both sides—a far greater challenge than the beast hordes they had faced in the Knight Continent’s trial zone.

Despite their initial panic and confusion, the young sea lizards soon adapted to the chaos.

Hidden within their wary glances was a spark of burgeoning excitement.

These children were born amidst the beast hordes in the Knight Continent’s trial zone and had endured their rigorous trials.

Leena had hatched them through rituals and arrays typically involved in synthesizing undead chimeras.

Finally, a powerful native could not bear to watch any longer.

The creature that now entered Sein’s line of sight was a green-skinned Garth, merely 1.5 meters tall, wielding a black wand.

Thunderfall World’s Garths were not exclusively blue-skinned; those were simply the most numerous.

There were Garths of various other colors, possibly representing a minority within their species.

On this battlefield, many non-blue Garths appeared, generally demonstrating greater strength and higher status than their blue counterparts.

Sein had long coveted such Garths as trophies and was surprised when one presented itself as an opponent.

This was a true Rank Two Garth, unlike the imposter Sein had previously vanquished in the Rocky Range.

The green-skinned Garth before him had also amassed significant conquests on the battlefield.

It would appear that its height did not hinder its ability to overpower stronger adversaries.

Electricity crackled around its hand, gripping a behemoth’s head that had been charred by its electrifying power.

This head once belonged to an elite enslaved creature from the Magus World, likely possessing at least a Rank One life level before meeting its end at the hands of this green-skinned Garth.

In its black eye sockets, there lingered no trace of its final moments.

The battlefield had claimed many such obscure lives.

Gathering the verdant flames on his back into a pair of wings, Sein propelled himself rapidly toward the Rank Two Garth.

Any lesser Thunderfall World creatures that obstructed his path were instantly scorched or burned to death by the sweeping verdant flames.

Sein’s power was unparalleled among ordinary Rank One creatures.

Meanwhile, the defiant Rank Two Garth unleashed a lightning chain from its wand that reduced the nearest Magus World enslaved creatures to charred particles.

It then sprang forward, leaping toward Sein.

The creatures of Thunderfall World were not only adept at manipulating lightning but also formidable in close combat.

This confrontation was shaping up to be a formidable challenge.
