Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2297 - 699: The Ultimate Showdown [8]
The situation in Caiyu City was quite similar to Florence, with half the sky reddened by battle.
Rommel stepped forward, using just one Magnetic Forbidden Curse to throw the Jade Emperor, of humble origins, into a disarray, thus initiating the first brutal battle on the three war fronts.
What is war? War is the most infectious plague among the masses!
Seeing the Jade Prince leading over a thousand experts from the Jade Court soaring into the sky like a flock of crows, the thirty Demon Dragons resonating the sound scale of the Forbidden Curse could no longer hold themselves back. They unfurled their amber-colored fleshy wings like sails, baring their sharp and gigantic fangs, and one after another, they followed after the experts of the Jade Court, diving straight toward the tree walls and city walls of Caiyu City.
To be honest, whether it was Caiyu City openly summoning a Forbidden Curse or the Jade Prince launching an attack, both seemed too sudden. At this time, the Demon Clan warriors were still busy clearing trees and expanding the siege path, while officers of various assault units were engrossed in tactical explanations and task assignments. The massive heavy siege weapons had not even been positioned yet, and even if the Demon Clan troops wanted to offer assistance, they could do nothing at the moment.
In this critical moment, over a thousand Arcanists of the Demon Clan showcased excellent revolutionary spirit. Seeing the commander silently lead the charge into Caiyu City, they quickly reacted even without receiving orders to attack. Under the command and assistance of the Obsidian Destroyers, these Demon Clan Arcanists, remembering their duty to provide cover, began pouring Arcane magic upon Caiyu City.
Although Mourinho had buried numerous Totem Pillars of War Songs ten meters underground in the outskirts of Caiyu City, and the Divine Song halos were shining on the tree walls and city walls every five steps like an outpost, the Demon Clan’s Obsidian Destroyers were not to be underestimated. After joint magic, the lower-level Demon Clan primary mages, utilizing the advantage of a relatively uniform lineage, unleashed long-range, powerful advanced spells, providing maximum cover fire for the charging Jade Emperor and Demon Dragons.
These Demon Clan Arcanists were all lower-level Demons, without a single silver-eyed, Dreadlord, or Lich among them. They did not practice traditional Arcane magic but rather the Aegean Magic of the four main elements: air, fire, water, and earth. War is the best university. The God and Demon War ten thousand years ago taught Aegean mages Space Magic and Undead Magic from the Demon Clan and allowed the Demon Clan to learn the four main elemental magic from the Aegean side.
Previously, the development of the four main elemental mages in the Demon World was not good. Not only did they fail to achieve the esteemed status of Arcanists, but there was also an increasing tendency for them to transform into Arcane slaves—this was due to simultaneous pressure from tradition and politics. Whenever a Fawkes-level strong master of the main elements appeared {this level is equivalent to an Aegean Magic Tutor}, the Witch King would order them to permanently bless a fine weapon, thereby restricting the development of main elemental magic in the Demon World.
Any mage who performs a permanent blessing would drop four levels and become mediocre, and the Demon Clan’s primary elemental mages were no exception.
Despite this, the extremely large population base of the lower-level Demon Clan continued to arduously persevere in the harsh environment, maintaining the arduous legacy of the four main elements’ magic—terrifying! Up to now, the total number of Aegeanian Humans and mages is roughly equivalent to the primary elemental mages of the Demon Clan! No wonder the Witch King restricts the spread of primary elemental magic. If it were unbanned, it would only take twenty years for there to be uncertainty about whether the Witch King could still hold the throne!
It’s said that perseverance leads to clarity after the storm. After the large-scale deaths of the Witch King, Dreadlord, Six-winged Heavenly King, and Winged Knights, the unpredictable dangers on the Aegean Battlefield finally forced Your Majesty Jiabao and Empress Monroe to discard their centuries-long arrogance, obediently gathering all lower-level species Arcanists practicing the primary elements’ magic to form the second Strategic Arcane Group Army, to confront the impending great war.
When the Jade Emperor led a large army toward Caiyu City, the Demon Clan’s primary elemental mages also welcomed their long-dreamed "Prague Spring." Being able to compete face-to-face with Aegean mages was the greatest desire of all Demon Clan primary elemental mages, serving as their maiden battle to make a name for themselves and the best opportunity to prove they were not inferior to formal Arcanists!
Carrying the honor of the entire Demon World, the primary elemental mages, entrusted with high hopes by the Witch King, were full of confidence in themselves—they merely saw the surface. Indeed, in terms of the number of mages, Mourinho only deployed twenty to thirty Moon Elf mages, Human mages, and Bode Clan Wizards of varying levels, barely reaching fifty even with the burly Sky Giants included. The highest-ranked among them was just a Fire Magician, how could they withstand the combined assault of over a thousand mages? Regarding superorder creatures, Caiyu City’s Deep Sea Blue Extreme Seals, Emperor Clams, Nemie Giant Lions, Liverpool Vermilion Birds, Jingwei Immortal Phoenixes, Moon White Tigers, Fire Phoenixes, Snowfield Faceless Giant Beasts were only half the number of Demon Dragons; as for priests, the Bode Clan hereditary overlord had only one hundred twenty-two priests, with an additional five hundred priests and fifty Self-initiated Berserk warriors from the Bimon Kingdom’s friendly support. Trying to stop a thousand experts from the Jade Court from charging was as laughable as trying to block a car with the Green Party! Don’t forget, under the command of the Jade Emperor, this eastern grassroots emperor not only had the Flower Noble Army composed of the four great Flower Fairies and Flower Teachers, Flower Mates, Flower Maids, he also had humanoid Divine Beasts Army led by superorder Divine Beasts like Bo Langsha Fire Cranes and Black Jade Golden Thread Snakes, and Moon-devouring Voracious Wolves! Through years of integration and alliances, there wasn’t a single mediocre hand in the Jade Court below the level of an advanced Aegean mage; more terrifyingly, they not only possessed outstanding magic treasures and melee martial techniques but could also launch aerial attacks stepping on flying swords!
