Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything
Chapter 257 What a grand display!
A thick, heavy haze covered the entire sky, which even the blazing sun could not dispel.
The sunlight, weakened considerably after passing through the thick clouds, fell on the wasteland, inexplicably carrying a gloomy and somber tone.
Looking out, the wasteland is covered with dense fungi, stretching across the mountains and fields like a dark carpet, seemingly without end.
Jagged, black mountains stretched out in the distance, with what appeared to be large flocks of birds flying above them.
A strong wind howled past, making the fungi rustle and ripple like waves.
A group of lesser demons scurried through the fungi, chattering and waving their short forks to swat at the fungi along the roadside, seemingly searching for food.
However, at that moment, a fungus that had been hit by the short fork suddenly convulsed violently, and the next second, a mouth-like slit suddenly split open on the surface of the cap, emitting an extremely piercing shriek.
The loud sound carried far across the wasteland, so sharp it hurt the eardrums.
A group of demons instinctively covered their ears, their faces contorted in pain.
Before they could catch their breath, some purple or dark gray fungi suddenly shot out tentacles, wrapped around all the lesser demons, pulled them close, and then opened their blood-red mouths full of sharp teeth, snapping them off with a snap.
In an instant, blood spurted out.
The screams quickly subsided, leaving only the chilling sound of chewing.
Before long, the chewing sounds disappeared, and the neighborhood returned to silence.
Thus, the unexpected hunt came to an end.
This is Shedakla's daily life.
This is the 222nd level of the Bottomless Abyss, a world of fungi and bacteria.
Here, low-level demons are merely food for fungi and edible fungi; all sorts of strange fungi and edible creatures are the true rulers.
Any alien creature that strays into Shedakla will fall victim to the endless, bizarre attacks of fungi and edible creatures, ultimately becoming fertilizer.
Deep in the wilderness stands a bizarre castle made entirely of fungi.
At this very moment, in the hall deep within the castle, Panmo sat on a chair formed of fungi, his gaze fixed intently on Zugmoy at the head of the table.
The outside world has a rumor that Lady Fungus is a plant life form, but this is not the case.
Lady Fungus is actually an alien creature, but she possesses many characteristics of plant life, such as immune toxicity, paralysis, shapeshifting, sleep, and intimidation effects.
In addition, her power is related to fungi, which is why people who don't know the truth mistakenly believe that she is a plant life.
Lady Fungus's appearance resembles an unfinished human sculpture.
Her torso, composed of odorous flats and curled fungi, happened to form a shapely woman.
Four fibrous horns protrude from the brow bone, and sharp claws grow from the hands.
Her lower body was a bundle of thick, whip-like pseudopodia covered in fungi, and her skin was covered with disgusting swirling ecchymoses of gray, blue, purple and black.
Even just looking at the silhouette, Lady Fungus's body curves are quite charming, so alluring that they are irresistible.
But once you actually see her face, all desires will vanish without a trace.
This is also the typical appearance of most demon lords, always inspiring fear, dread, and even nausea.
Demon lords as beautiful as the Succubus Queen are ultimately few and far between.
"The army from Dawn City will arrive here soon. Are you confident you can handle them?" Pan Mo asked in a deep voice.
Lady Fungus glanced at him and said leisurely, "Don't worry, now that we've signed the contract, I will definitely keep my promise and do my best to help you fight off the wizards of Dawn City."
Pan Mo's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and he said no more.
Based on his understanding of the Dawn Council, Dawn City would definitely not send out its entire force in this war; it would be necessary to leave people behind to oversee both Dawn City and the Turin plane.
In other words, at most two of the four rule wizards will be deployed.
One of them is very likely Xi Nan, who was recently promoted.
In this way, it wouldn't be difficult for him and Lady Fungus to deal with them together.
The key lies in the mid-to-high-level combat power at the bottom.
The demons, fungi, and spores under Lady Fungus's command are not known for their strength. They are estimated to be defeated by the Silver Legion and the Dawn Council in a short time. At that time, the consequences would be unpredictable.
Panmer believed that Mrs. Fungus certainly understood this as well.
But she remained calm, suggesting she likely had other tricks up her sleeve.
"Never mind, there's a contract in place anyway, so I'm not worried about her not doing her best."
Pan Mo pondered silently to himself.
"Once this battle is over, the preparations on the Astral Plane will be almost complete. Once we reach the Astral Plane, we won't have to worry about being hunted down by Dawn City."
Thinking of this, Pan Mo felt slightly reassured.
The next moment, he suddenly looked up at the window, his eyes becoming incredibly deep.
At the same time, Lady Fungus also turned her gaze outside, a strange smile appearing on her face.
"They're here."
Far from the castle, above the wasteland.
Suddenly, countless huge cracks appeared in the empty sky. Amidst the flashes of light and shadow, towering wizard towers flew out from them, stirring up violent air currents.
At the same time, the ground shimmered with silver light, and hundreds of giant portals materialized out of thin air, opening with a thunderous roar. Countless legions of slaves and golems marched out from them in orderly formation.
In the blink of an eye, the wasteland was filled with a dense array of troops.
A chilling aura spread outwards, eliciting a chorus of screams from the distant shrieking mushrooms.
"Is this Shedakla?"
On the Star Gazing Platform, Pei Ze looked down at the scenery with great interest.
Like the Wanyuan Plain, it was desolate and bleak, with an unsettling atmosphere of chaos permeating the air.
Compared to the Wanyuan Plain, the mushrooms and fungi covering the mountains and plains gave off an extra eerie and desolate feeling, making people feel inexplicably uneasy.
Pei Ze looked at the wasteland a kilometer away, where there was nothing, but under his mental scan, he could see more than a dozen brownish-green plants that looked like a clump of tumors scattering and fleeing.
Phantom mushroom.
Pei Ze recognized the creature immediately.
The tumor-like structure on the head of this fungus is a sensory organ. They use their mouths, which are covered with sharp, calcareous teeth, to feed and attack. Their four short, thick legs enable them to stand and move around.
It is worth mentioning that the Phantom Mushroom is born with advanced invisibility abilities, and these abilities will remain in effect as long as it is alive. They cannot be erased by invisibility removal spells and will only become visible after death.
With this ability, the Phantom Mushroom became a fearsome predator in the abyss.
Many demons have been killed by the Phantom Mushrooms without warning, becoming their food.
hum!
An invisible wave spread out.
Immediately afterwards, a deep, resonant voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.
"attack."
It was Xi Nan's voice.
This newly appointed rule wizard acted swiftly and decisively. Seeing that the army had already established a foothold, he immediately issued the order to attack.
Rumble!
The golem army was the first to launch an attack.
Tens of thousands of golems advanced in formation, wielding heavy fists or spewing forth vast amounts of flames, cold mist, and lightning, constantly destroying the fungi and eddies along their path.
The fungi and edibles of Shedakla generally possess abilities such as stealth, hallucination, and poison, posing a great threat to intelligent beings with physical bodies. However, they have little effect on golems whose bodies are made entirely of metal or rock and which do not have their own emotions.
Under the sweep of the golem army, a large number of screaming mushrooms, purple mushrooms, and phantom mushrooms were forced to reveal themselves and scatter in all directions, only to be subsequently wiped out by the pursuing golems.
In a short while, a large blank area was cleared out of the wasteland.
Only then did the slave legion and the Silver Legion begin to advance.
Just then, a layer of shadowy indistinct shadows suddenly appeared in the distance, sweeping in like a tide.
Only when you get closer do you realize that the shadows are actually countless mushroom people.
These mushroom-men look like oversized mushroom-like figures, with mouths full of sharp teeth and wielding various weapons. They appear chaotic and disorganized, but the overwhelming killing intent they exude sends a chill down your spine.
"A mutated mushroom person?"
Pei Ze raised his eyebrows slightly.
Mushroom people are a special species that exists between plants and animals. They are gentle by nature, feed on fungi, and generally live in groups in the Underdark. They had lived in the deep forests of the Underdark for a long time before the appearance of the Dark Elves, and can be said to be a true native race of the Underdark.
However, Lady Fungus later captured most of the fungus and brought them to Shedakra, whereupon she used her power to transform them into bloodthirsty half-demons, causing the fungus to nearly disappear from the Underdark.
Just as Pei Ze was pondering, the torrent of mushroom people crashed into the golem army, and the two sides instantly clashed, unleashing a bloody storm.
Looking down at the war below, Pei Ze felt a slight sense of emotion.
During the war in the Turin plane, he was also one of the fighters on the battlefield below, just an insignificant pawn. Presumably, the elemental wizards in the sky looked down from above in the same way.
However, he has now become one of the latter, experiencing the feeling of looking down on all living beings from a high place.
Shaking his head, Pei Ze gathered his thoughts and gazed into the distance, his eyes sweeping hundreds of kilometers away until they landed on the distant fungal castle.
Countless black specks of demons flew out of the castle, hurtling towards them like lightning.
The Iron Cavalry Demon, the Giant Bull Demon, and the Flame Demon—all of them were mid- to high-level demons.
These are the true main forces under Lady Fungus's command.
The mushroom people are nothing more than cannon fodder and low-ranking soldiers.
Seeing the enemy's main force mobilize, Xi Nan did not hesitate to issue the order for the Wizard Tower to attack.
Amidst a deafening roar, hundreds of wizard towers hurtled towards the demon legion like meteors.
Halfway through, countless beams of incantation swept out like a storm, instantly killing thousands of demons.
Immediately following, a large number of golems flew out of the wizard tower and charged fiercely towards the demon army.
Pei Ze also released two thousand demon statues, including one hundred Ming Kong demon statues.
Due to time constraints, he only had time to upgrade one hundred of the Sky-Piercing Demon Statues.
Even so, one hundred high-level fourth-tier combatants are already an extremely powerful force.
As soon as they clashed, the Sky-Piercing Demon Statues raised their right hands in unison, slashing forward like sharp axes. In an instant, a muffled tearing sound, like cloth being ripped apart, was heard, and the void twisted and cracked, forming a visible crescent-shaped silver light that ripped through the sky.
Dimensional Slash!
The level 5 elite fire demons that were targeted didn't even have time to resist. In an instant, they were shredded into dust by a hundred dimensional slashes, their bodies exploding into a cloud of blood mist, and then swallowed up by the spatial turbulence.
Wow!
The surrounding demons immediately showed expressions of horror, and hurriedly created distance between themselves.
When had they ever seen such a terrifying golem?
Could it be the legendary magical construct?
The wizards inside the wizard tower were all taken aback by what they saw.
Including a number of lawmakers.
"A magical construct?" Yin Yongqin's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but he quickly dismissed his guess. "No, that's not right. This power is not even at the level of a magical construct."
Arcane constructs such as Arcane Guardians and Arcane Mechs start at least at level five.
Although these golems are powerful, they are not yet at level five; at most, they are at the mid-to-high level of level four.
Even so, Yin Yongqin's shock did not diminish in the slightest.
"Has Pei Ze invented a new golem?"
Yin Yongqin was filled with amazement.
With the example of the Thor statue before, Yin Yongqin guessed after a moment's thought that this must be another statue developed by Pei Zexin.
"To be able to even create a level four golem, this enchanting skill has definitely reached the level of the sixth rank, and it is even possible that it is the seventh rank."
In fact, the enchanting skills required to craft a level 4 golem and a magical construct are not much different; the only difference lies in the quality requirements of the raw materials used in the crafting.
Since Pei Ze was able to develop a new level four golem, then once he advances to become a rule wizard, creating magical constructs will be a piece of cake for him as well.
This level of skill is so high that calling him an enchanting master is perfectly justified.
Looking across the entire Astral Alliance, there are definitely no more than twenty wizards who possess such enchanting skills.
"Potion making, alchemy and enchanting, and rapid improvement in strength—how exactly does Pei Ze manage to juggle so many things at once?"
Even Yin Yongqin, who had lived for thousands of years and was very knowledgeable, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement at this moment.
Rumble!
A deafening roar echoed across the desolate plains.
Screams and howls echoed endlessly.
As more and more demons attacked from the direction of the castle, the war gradually intensified.
The three legions fought a fierce battle against the mushroom people and demons.
The Wizard Tower and the elite demons are locked in a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, the wizard tower where the nine councilors were located flew straight across the battlefield without stopping, heading towards the Fungal Castle.
Several blind elite demons along the way tried to stop them, but they were blasted to ashes before they could even get close.
In the blink of an eye, the nine wizard towers arrived near the Fungus Castle, forming an encirclement.
Two figures floated out of the castle; they were none other than Panmer and Lady Fungus.
Pan Mo glanced around with a gloomy look, a cold smile appearing on his face.
"All nine permanent members have been mobilized just to deal with me; that's quite a show of force." (End of Chapter)
