Synthetic Wizard

Chapter 504: Chapter 290: Still as Discerning as Ever (Part 2)

Lize nodded and asked, "What about the Manlo Plane? The enemies have suddenly increased their troops. Should we deploy forces to support Fakado?"

"Deploy some troops." Sunan agreed smoothly, then inquired about another matter, "How is the situation with the other Wizard Influences?"

Lize spread her hands: "They’re all at a stalemate, with back-and-forth exchanges."

"The Deep Blue Alliance has already expelled the Wilderness Spirits’ army from the Celestial Sea Plane Community and has counterattacked into Wilderness Spirits’ territory, capturing two planes, thus they are subtly gaining the upper hand."

"The Star Spirit Bell Tower and Bloodline Jungle are evenly matched, neither side plans to expand the battlefield, keeping it within the Wind Spring Plane. Both are continuously investing massive troops and war creations; now it’s become a hellish meat grinder, and by the time the war ends, the Wind Spring Plane will likely be almost destroyed."

The war between the Star Alliance, Ten Thousand Headed Bird, and Black Rope Tower is waged with forces scattered across twenty-two planes, with grand scale and extensive implications.

Meanwhile, the military forces of Star Spirit Bell Tower and Bloodline Jungle, taken individually, are far more powerful than the combined forces of Star Alliance, Ten Thousand Headed Bird, and Black Rope Tower.

Two such giants fighting within a single plane—one can imagine the catastrophic damage inflicted on it.

Even if the Wind Spring Plane narrowly escapes total destruction, it wouldn’t recover for thousands of years after the war ends.

"What about the Dark Throne and Wisdom Code?" Sunan asked.

Lize replied: "The Dark Throne repelled the Wisdom Code’s army and counterattacked into the Holy Tree Plane Community. The Wisdom Code is now at a disadvantage, with five planes already captured by the Dark Throne."

It’s the opposite scenario compared to the Deep Blue Alliance and Wilderness Spirits.

But Sunan wasn’t surprised. The Wisdom Code holds its ground among other large Wizard factions due to its ability to gather subordinate organizations via resource ties.

Its own war potential is less than other major Wizard Influences.

Now, with its affiliates dealing with Black Rope Tower, Pale Mask, and Flame Pattern Association, while it’s left alone against the Dark Throne, it was foreseeable it would fall behind.

However, due to its vast properties, there’s no concern about it being defeated.

Sunan remembered, after the Wizard civil war ended, most large Wizard Influences survived, only a few took significant losses.

"Other subordinate organizations and Black Wizard Influences are also caught in a stalemate, unlikely to decide victory or defeat shortly."

Sunan nodded knowingly.

All Wizard Influences involved in this civil war had profound foundations, with massive resources allowing them to continually convert into troops for war.

Even at a temporary disadvantage, they wouldn’t be thoroughly crushed.

This is why the Wizard civil war lasted over five hundred years.

Eventually, prolonged high-intensity warfare depleted some Wizard Influences’ reserves, causing the situation to suddenly change, leading to piecemeal victories.

In this large backdrop, the Star Alliance, a third-rate Wizard Influence, standing out by seizing two planes from Black Rope Tower.

Starlight Calendar 2296, the Star Alliance captured the last town in the Xige Plane, fully bringing it under control.

Like before, the Star Alliance didn’t immediately switch to the Manlo Plane, instead calmly integrated the Xige Plane, digesting the spoils.

After consecutive captures of two planes, the Star Alliance gained richly but was also somewhat fatigued. They took this opportunity to rest, digest the spoils, and then advance on the Manlo Plane.

Under Sunan’s command, the entire logistics operated at full force, vigorously producing puppets, Magic Pattern Armor, Magic Ships, Stellar Fortress... With ample resource supply, the war machine named Star Alliance grew stronger each minute.

...

Amidst the forest encircled by giant trees, a vast expanse surrounded them.

Atop the trees, tens of meters apart in midair, fog swirled, thunder and lightning within, purple flashes flickered like mangling dragons soaring through clouds.

Occasionally, there were light dots emerging in the void, slowly drifting with the breeze.

These were highly condensed crystalline Energy Particle aggregates.

Maisy hovered above the tree tops, gazing into the distant flickering lightning.

Behind her, a Wizard respectfully narrated the recent developments in the war.

"... The Star Alliance has captured the Xige Plane and is now regrouping to restore military strength; it’ll be advancing to the Manlo Plane soon!"

"The power disparity between the sides is obvious; unless Black Rope Tower headquarters deploy forces to help, Star Alliance capturing the Manlo Plane is just a matter of time!"

After the Wizard’s report, before Maisy could speak, Oliver commented with a hint of sentiment, "I didn’t expect the Star Alliance would open the situation first; I thought the Ten Thousand Headed Bird’s performance would be better."

He turned to Maisy, smiling, "Your vision remains impeccable. This Star Alliance affiliate has been quite remarkable in recent years."

Maisy smiled mildly and said, "A Wizard Influence arising from the two-thousand-year-sealed Starlight Continent is already extraordinary; I merely seized the opportunity to recruit them."

Beside them, Ronin cast a deep look at Maisy, choosing to remain silent.

Watching the Star Alliance defeat Black Rope Tower troops in the Earth Crystal Plane, and witnessing Sunan take down hundreds of Wizards in one strike, Ronin knows Sunan and Star Alliance are exceptional.

Still, he didn’t predict the Star Alliance would be the first to capture the Xige Plane and Wulan Plane.

Black Rope Tower suffered no loss to Ten Thousand Headed Bird but was bitten hard by a third-rate Wizard Influence, which came as a surprise.

Recommending promising affiliate organizations is one of a True Spirit Wizard’s accomplishments.

Once this news reaches the Wisdom Society, the senior scholars’ evaluation of Maisy will undoubtedly rise considerably.

This realization made Ronin sigh quietly.

Why haven’t I had such fortuitous luck, encountering a burgeoning Wizard Influence like the Star Alliance?

Oliver laughed, "In this Wizard civil war, it might be the Star Alliance, Ten Thousand Headed Bird, and Black Rope Tower that’ll first declare victory."

"Perhaps."

Maisy responded casually, her gaze shifting slightly.

She’s already aware of the key battle scene where the Star Alliance seized the Wulan Plane.

The formidable firepower revealed by the Starlight Wizard Tower shocked her, yet also brought realization.

Deeming the situation, Sunan evidently used the experimental notes she provided to develop an energy supply device more advanced than the Elemental Pool, enabling substantial enhancement of Wizard Tower’s long-range strike capability.

"That guy Sunan always brings unexpected surprises."

Maisy sighed silently.

She has a premonition that Sunan and the Star Alliance’s future development might far exceed her expectations.

Whoosh!

In the distance, a thunderous roar abruptly emerged, interrupting Maisy’s thoughts.

Her keen eyes looked toward the source—vivid, swirling, seven-colored light shot skyward, weaving into a gate-like colossal shape within the void, with intense spatial fluctuations emanating from it.

Seeing this, Ronin’s face twisted into a cold smile.

"Those three guys are still restless, always trying to leave the Realm of Truth!"

Oliver laughed, "Black Rope Tower suddenly losing two planes must make them anxious."

"In that case, we can’t let them leave." Ronin stated emotionlessly.

Their current favorable situation can’t allow the three Black Rope Tower True Spirit Wizards to return and meddle in the war.

Before the Wizard civil war ends, these three must obediently stay here.

"Take action, don’t let the spatial channel form."

Maisy swiftly transformed into a radiant stream and charged forth.

Ronin and Oliver, slightly slower, also accelerated like comets.

Three streams of light instantly arrived at the site of the seven-colored glow.

In the following moment, a surge of robust energy waves engulfed the surroundings!

A battle between True Spirit Wizards erupted thusly!
