Chapter 746: Leena and Undead Army

Chapter 746: Leena and Undead Army

Sein had no prior experience commanding large legions in battle.

His most extensive command during the Thunderfall World War had been over two hundred knights and several thousand native creatures from Thunderfall World.

This was his first time commanding tens of thousands in a melee between legions of over a million strong.

However, Sein proved to be a competent commander, seemingly born with a natural aptitude for leadership.

His keen understanding of those living at the bottom of the social hierarchy and his ability to seize subtle opportunities on the battlefield made him a better candidate to lead the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring Army than even a seasoned Rank Three grand mage.

For this Verdant Wilderness World War, the esteemed Dean Archimedes of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring did not arrive in person.

One of the two senior deans of the tower was stationed in the space fortress.

Sein’s status as tower master’s apprentice placed him on equal footing with this group of Rank Three grand mages.

By the end of the war in Artemisia Forest, Sein was commanding not only the tens of thousands of native creatures led by the Green Spikefur King but also coordinating the other legions of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring Army.

The three demigod-level Sea Kings were also included in the list thanks to Sein’s connection with Tourmaline.

As for Maya, the demigod-level centaur, she was cooperative to get on Sein’s good side.

Throughout this battle, none of the Rank Three grand mages challenged Sein’s command.

After all, these new faces among the Rank Three grand mages were recent joiners to the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring.

Formerly heads of several large mage councils in Viridescent Land, they were now effectively Lorianne’s “employees”.

These mages, reputed to be among the most knowledgeable and intelligent beings, were not naive in interpersonal interactions, especially since these Rank Three grand mages were veterans who had lived for thousands of years.

Having just joined the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring with a relatively shallow foundation, they were already eager to please Sein, whom they saw as the “tower master’s heir”. Why would they challenge him?

After the conflict in Artemisia Forest ended, Sein led the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring Army further north.

With over a million-strong legions engaged, completely annihilating the opponents would prove challenging.

Of the four hundred thousand-strong hostile legion that faced the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring, only about two hundred thousand were slain.

The remaining two hundred thousand were scattered as they were defeated, fleeing in all directions across the Artemisia Forest battlefield, with the majority heading north.

However, since reaching the outskirts of Lush Verdant Forest, Sein had yet to see Lorianne.

She was deep in the heart of the forest, fighting against a group of otherworldly gods, alongside Gregory.

Even at the forest’s edge, Sein could feel the waves of heat emanating from the center, radiating explosive energy throughout the plane.

Simultaneously, as Sein reached the periphery of Lush Verdant Forest, Leena, from the distant Western Archipelago of the Magus World, arrived at the Verdant Wilderness World.

Bringing Leena here required using the Undead World as a transit point, and the cost of summoning across such immense distances naturally exceeded what Sein previously paid to bring her to the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring.

Without the support of the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring’s fortress base and his own savings, Sein would not have been able to afford this.

Leena did not arrive alone; accompanying her was an army of tens of thousands of undead creatures.

This massive arrival was also why Sein was able to receive approval from the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring to draw so much energy from the fortress.

Sanchez, the demigod-level skeletal dragon, stunned the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring’s mages as it emerged from the spatial gate.

“The apprentice of the tower master is indeed impressive. He’s only a Rank Two, yet he can already summon demigod-level undead creatures?”

The attention of the mages was captivated by the presence of the skeletal dragon, only very few noticed a black-robed mage standing on the dragon’s spine.

Sein, mounted on the demigod-level Green Spikefur King, spread his arms to welcome Leena, who had just arrived in this realm.

Despite being a skeletal dragon, Sanchez retained the inherent pride of his draconic brethren.

To him, even the enormous green hedgehog beneath Sein seemed insignificant.

Having traversed the long corridors of time and space to reach Verdant Wilderness World, Sanchez was about to unleash a resounding howl to the skies.

However, a surge of violent vibrations and energy blasts from the heart of Lush Verdant Forest interrupted it.

The soul flame in Sanchez’s huge eye sockets flared with intensity as it asked, “What the hell is this place? Why are there so many creatures of Rank Four and above fighting so intensely here?!”

It turned toward Leena, who had just dismounted from its back and rushed into Sein’s embrace.

Unfortunately for Sanchez, the pair seemed lost in an affectionate exchange, oblivious to its complaints.

Meanwhile, the undead legion was already mobilizing. Among them, the most elite Rank Two undead creatures had been thrust into the fray.
