This crazy wizard is quite stable

Chapter 348 Prince Norns: Hmm, is it possible to reconcile?

At noon, the blazing sun hung high in the sky, and the silvery army of puppets stood in formation on the plain. The Silver Knight, with a long sword at his waist, stood at the forefront of the formation. Unlike the slightly excited puppets behind him, the Silver Knight's crystal-like eyes held a hint of helplessness.

Yes, helpless.

Although this was their first time fighting alongside Isaac, ...

The Silver Knights knew that they had no part in this war; Isaac was the one who did the fighting, and they were just responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

This news was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the Silver Knight's somewhat burning heart.

However, although it was frustrating, there was nothing that could be done, after all...

Since they really weren't of any help in the upcoming battle.

Of course, this does not mean that their mission is simple. Although they cannot fight for Isaac, the Silver Knights learned from Mishukant that their real mission is to demonstrate their strength!
If they perform well this time, the Puppet Legion will receive a major upgrade and will then participate in the war in the new world as a mercenary group, bringing Isaac a continuous stream of wealth.

Of course, I'll also gather some information about the new world.

Above the puppet army, Isaac stood in the void, his white wizard robes fluttering in the wind. Liuli was still wearing her black and white maid outfit, standing expressionlessly behind Isaac. On her shoulder, a gray-furred mouse was clinging to a piece of virtual divinity and gnawing on it.

Of course, it's not actually eating, and virtual deities can't be eaten either. This is just a method for the mouse to study the death power contained within virtual deities.

Isaac originally intended for the mouse to fuse with this virtual godhood, gain the power of a fourth-tier virtual deity, and adjust its own power from top to bottom. After the mouse's own godhood system advanced to the fourth tier, he would then replace it with another virtual godhood to broaden the scope of its divine path.

Alternatively, if conditions permit, one could directly ascend to the fifth-tier virtual godhood!

Continue to achieve a breakthrough!

But in the end, the mouse rejected the suggestion.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Having spent a long time with Isaac, the mouse's thinking has already leaned towards that of a wizard, and it has even developed its own set of efficient research methods based on its own divine species characteristics.

This is what we now call "mouth technique".

Through this act of gnawing, the divine power contained within the virtual deity is gradually unveiled to the mouse, and then integrated into the mouse's own deity network.

The only drawback is that this still doesn't change the awkward situation it faces as a divine species—insufficient faith.

Gods do not rely heavily on faith. Whether it is to enhance or restore their power, the power of faith is not a necessity. However, the reason why gods frequently wage war for faith is that the power of faith is a very good catalyst for gods, which can maximize the enhancement of gods' power in the shortest amount of time!
Moreover, this improvement is permanent!

Unfortunately, all of this is basically out of reach for the mouse, at least for now. If it wants to become stronger, it can only cultivate little by little.

Hearing the long-lost "creaking" sound, Isaac's mood improved even more. He gently raised his left hand, and the Book of Gods quickly turned the pages. The hideous phantom of the Void Worm appeared behind Isaac, and the shadowy spatial fluctuations covered the entire puppet army.

The next moment, the three thousand puppet legions and Isaac were simultaneously swallowed up by the spatial fluctuations!
When they reappeared, they had already arrived at the border of Prince Norns' territory!

"Hiss!!!" XN
This spatial teleportation directly ignited the emotions of all the spectators secretly watching this "duel." All the spectators behind the scenes couldn't help but stand up from their seats, their eyes wide open, their faces full of disbelief, and the temperature in the real world couldn't help but rise a few degrees.

This is because Isaac and the others did not use ordinary phase space teleportation, but rather phase space teleportation personally performed by the evil god Void Worm!
And its strength is as high as level four!

It's already outrageous enough that an evil god would personally help a mad witch; it's the kind of thing you wouldn't even dare to dream of. Not to mention, this evil god also used more than the required power of a fourth-tier being!
It's important to understand that Outer Gods are not the same as Wizard Knights. They don't have any restrictions on the third or fourth tier when using their power. For Outer Gods, any power, regardless of its size, is forbidden from being used in the real world!
Unless you pay a certain price.

And what do they see now?
An evil god, in order to help a mad witch in battle, actually directly invested fourth-order spatial power!
It's only used for traveling!

Is this reasonable?

Is this still the Outer God they know?
Everyone watching this battle had a very solemn expression. At this moment, Isaac's status in their hearts was elevated once again, regardless of whether he was a fourth- or fifth-tier warrior!
At the same time, a sense of apprehension arose, after all, no one knew whether the current Isaac was still Isaac...

Although such things are rare, they have happened among mad witches before. Never underestimate the methods of evil gods!

But Isaac's surprises for them went far beyond that!
On the other side, after Isaac led his puppet army to the border of Prince Norns' territory, the puppet army transformed into streaks of light and dispersed. Under the command of the Silver Knight, they split into six groups and surrounded the prince's territory from six directions!

At the same time, five divine lights flew out from Isaac's body, transforming into five divine shadows that shot out in all directions, completely surrounding the princely territory of about one million square kilometers!

The wild forest surged across the land, and countless tree people rose from the ground!

Layer upon layer of purple space appeared and disappeared, and eerie purple light surged in like a tide, determined to engulf everything!
Golden meteors fell to earth, transforming into knights wielding swords and shields, cutting through thorns and brambles, breaking through layers of obstacles!

"boom!"

A hundred-meter-tall dwarf wielding a giant hammer slowly rose from the earth. The moment he shifted the hammer in his hand, waves of turmoil surged forth!
Opposite the dwarf was another statue a hundred meters tall, but it was not a dwarf, but an orc!

Wielding a sharp, giant axe, with muscles as robust as mountains and tattoos resembling the face of a demon, he exuded an unparalleled aura of menace!

In an instant, all five gods appeared!
Everyone fell silent at the same time; they knew something bad had happened…

"Boom!" Sure enough, on the other side of the real world, in the place where the theocracy was located, countless divine lights accompanied by rage descended from the sky, once again demonstrating to the world what divine power was like!

Without a doubt, the gods were enraged!

Throughout the ages, Isaac was not the first wizard to covet the power of the gods, nor was he the first to succeed, but he was definitely the most successful one throughout the ages!
Although these five gods seem somewhat weak, only at the fourth level, they are still genuine divine power. And most importantly, these five guys not only obey Isaac's every word, but can also move freely in the real world!
That's incredible!
This unbelievable scene sparked some strange thoughts in them: if they could do the same, wouldn't the world be...?

This idea is dangerous, but now they have absolutely justifiable reasons to do it!
At least, they believe they have that reason!

However, unlike the shock of others, Isaac did not take it to heart, because in a sense, the true gods and the outer gods are the same. Neither can exert their full power in the real world. Let alone exert their full power, the true gods are only slightly better than the outer gods, that is, the price they pay for using their power is less.

Even so, the power they can use in the real world is at most the fifth rank, and that's a pseudo-fifth rank with a very short duration. If it goes on for too long, ordinary gods simply cannot withstand that enormous cost.

Therefore, the only ones capable of attacking Isaac in the real world are at most some fourth-tier beings, and for Isaac now, no matter how many fourth-tier beings come, they're just freebies!

Therefore, he merely glanced in the direction of the Holy Kingdom before transforming into a streak of light with Liuli and flying towards the center of the Prince's territory, where Prince Norns and his subordinates were already waiting.

A moment later, Isaac brought Liuli to the center of the Prince's territory—Kyrgyz City.

Kyrgyzstan was originally the central city of a marquisate. After its original owner died in battle, it was granted to Prince Norns by the emperor. It sounds unbelievable, but that's how it was for the marquis.

The vast majority of marquises, apart from the title itself, do not inherit their lands. This is because most marquises are members of the Terra royal family. They are given a marquis title and some money, but the empire doesn't have that many territories to grant to them.

Of course, if you're willing to explore new avenues, that's a different story.

Getting back to the main point, the original Kyrgyz territory was only about 300,000 square kilometers. Under Prince Norns's "management", it expanded to its current size in a very short time, and Kyrgyz City, located in the center of the prince's territory, also experienced tremendous development.

The entire city was shrouded in a powerful barrier, powered by thirteen mage towers. Even a fifth-tier expert would be unable to break through this barrier before its energy was depleted!
This is also one of the reasons why Prince Norns did not immediately go out to meet the enemy when he sensed something was wrong, but instead stayed in Kyrgyzstan to wait for Isaac. Going out would mean certain death, while staying here might offer a glimmer of hope.

Of course, this glimmer of hope was not that he was expecting the royal family to come to his rescue. He already knew that he had been abandoned by the Terra royal family. His only hope was the tallest of the thirteen mage towers in the city!
That was a fourth-tier mage tower that he had built at great expense. There were currently sixteen fourth-tier mages inside. Although only one fourth-tier arcane mage and one fourth-tier monster knight could obey his orders, with the help of the fourth-tier mage tower, there was still a chance of victory!

"You came."

"Hmm." Looking at the huge statue rising in Kyrgyzstan, Isaac nodded while taking in the city, or rather, the thirteen mage towers within it, with great interest.

These thirteen mage towers are both the energy source of the city and the nodes of the magic circle that open the gate to a new world.

This made Isaac realize that in the upcoming battle, he needed to avoid affecting the thirteen mage towers as much as possible, or at least not damage them too much. Although he wasn't afraid even if all sixteen fourth-tier mage towers in the city attacked him at once, there was no need to go through all that trouble.

Another thing is, if this thing is destroyed, it will be a hassle to repair. If we save our energy, we might be able to use the remaining energy to open a new world gate after this battle and see what the new world is like.

Thinking of this, Isaac immediately sent a message to the five gods, asking them to hold back their power so as not to damage his mage tower.

After giving instructions to the five gods in his mind, Isaac looked at Prince Norns, who was on high alert, and Remington, the construct life form who was still standing beside him.

Looking at the two of them, and recalling the past, Isaac felt a pang of sadness. It was truly...

"Can we reconcile?" Although he believed he had the strength to fight, Prince Norns did not make a move immediately. Instead, he softened his stance. Even if he could fight and even if he won, he might not be able to kill or dare to kill Isaac.

Because Isaac is a mad witch, and because the battlefield is on his territory, if Isaac is killed here, won't the territory explode?
Since killing is not an option, reconciliation is naturally the best strategy, after all...

"We don't really have any serious grudges against each other, right?"

Upon hearing this, Isaac couldn't help but smile and actually nodded.

Yes, strictly speaking, there was no real grudge between them. The one whose "Supreme Bone" was dug out was the eldest brother, and the one who took the "Supreme Bone" was the royal family, not Prince Norns. The one who directly caused his mother's death in childbirth was the Mad Witch Master of Mischief, who is also dead.

So, why did they get to this point?

It was all a twist of fate that Isaac was targeted. Prince Norns was never really after Isaac, but rather the Solomon Territory behind Isaac, and Isaac's father—Gaia Solomon!

The resurrection of Remington was also intended to deal with Solomon's territory, but it just so happened that Isaac was also affected.

But it's not deep either.

In aristocratic society, this kind of conflict is relatively easy to resolve, since interests are everything.

Take Caesar, for example; didn't he also abandon his "bones-rigging feud" with the Terran royal family?
Of course, this is only a preliminary abandonment. If Caesar is to truly give up this hatred, then both sides need to exchange more benefits. But in any case, judging from this small example, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this grudge can definitely be put aside.

Unfortunately, that was the way nobles did it, and Isaac was just an ordinary wizard. What he wanted, Prince Norns couldn't give him either.

Therefore, Isaac shook his head and said calmly, "There's no point in saying all this now. I'm here today only to have one thing on my mind. So, you and Remington are going to die. If you choose to commit suicide, I can assure you that I won't lay a hand on them."

As he spoke, Isaac revealed a wicked grin, "So you'll have a chance for revenge~"
