Chapter 0762 Wizards Gather
Wizards are a bunch of extremely snobby guys!
It's just too hard to get them to risk their lives if there isn't enough benefit or potential benefit.
But once they smell the blood, they will immediately transform into the most terrifying hunters in the world, using their terrifying witchcraft to tear enough flesh and blood from the enemy to feed their hunger.
The Kamala family, the Andor family, the Senas family, the Molin Lodge, the Layton Wizard Academy...
Five unfamiliar names, all of them are small and unpopular forces in the Sandi Tallinn area. With their strength, it is simply impossible for them to gather a hundred wizards. Therefore, Gargamel can say with 90% certainty that there must be other forces indirectly involved in this attack on the Flame Throne Wu Tower.
Although the Crimson Family appeared for a relatively short period of time, they let the outside world know the strength and bravery of the Crimson Wizard through several tough battles. Last time, even a team led by a Tier 3 vampire wizard had to face bloody injuries in front of the Flame Throne Witch Tower, losing troops and generals.
Since then, that vampire family has been devastated, and can only retreat to the family castle, barely able to support the situation.
And according to the investigation of Gargamel's men, this time the enemy's wizard team did have some strange guys who look like vampires. If the information is true, it means that the third-level vampire wizard Haynes Wick will definitely appear among the enemies facing the Throne of Flame.
Currently, the so-called 'Anti-Crimson Family Alliance' is still gathering in the residence of the Kamala family. There is a straight-line distance of 200 miles from the Throne of Flame, and it is already the closest gathering point that the enemies can find.
And between the Kamala family residence and the Flame Throne, there is a rugged forest path. If it's just a small caravan, it can barely pass through it, but if it is replaced by a mighty army of 30,000 people, I am afraid that it will be difficult for most of the supplies to pass through this path smoothly.
Moreover, the Crimson Clan doesn't have any ground territory for them to occupy. The only way for the enemy to erase the Crimson Clan's existence is to mobilize enough cannon fodder to attack the underground witch tower. And this is undoubtedly a huge adventure!
Therefore, the main force of the enemy's attack could only be the patchwork of more than a hundred wizards. As for the 30,000 army brought by the nobles, it was not so much for fighting as it was for cannon fodder.
Since Mary arrived at the Throne of Flame, the Crimson Family withdrew all affiliated personnel and lower-level forces into the Wu Tower. All members of the entire family hid underground and never showed their faces outside again.
However, Wuta still rushed before the enemy attacked him, and dispatched a large number of goblin construction machinery to completely destroy the forest path from Songta town to Wuta under the cover of night.
The enemy's large army wants to get close to the Flame Cave, so let's build this road first!
The enemy also seemed to have noticed the intention of the Crimson Clan. In order to completely block them back to the ground, they threw off the large and useless noble private army, gathered 103 wizards and rushed to the outside of the Flame Cave overnight, and set up a temporary camp.
When the mages of the Crimson Clan were stuck in the ground and could not get out, the enemy's large army marched slowly and with difficulty along the forest path towards the Crimson Clan.
…………
Night fell, and the sky was full of stars.
The outside of the fiery red cave, which had been cold for more than ten days, became very lively again.
Exquisite and gorgeous tents popped up like mushrooms after the rain, almost completely covering the place.
More than a hundred wizards belonging to different forces gathered here, discussing the details of attacking the Crimson Family overnight. And the wizard guards they each brought were scattered around the camp, on guard to prevent the Crimson Family from sending people to sneak attacks.
And in the huge ornate tent in the center of the camp, there were twenty or thirty wizards representing various forces, silently listening to the assignment of tasks by the two leader wizards.
There are only two chief wizards, both of which are Tier 3!
One is naturally the third-level vampire Haynes Wick who volunteered to help, and the other is the only third-level wizard of the Kamala family, Yurga the Crow.
And beside the two third-level wizards, there are eleven second-level wizards in different shapes and costumes, and the rest are all battle wizards at the peak of the first level.
The Kamala family is a small wizard family closest to the Crimson family. According to the agreement negotiated in private, after taking the Flame Throne Witch Tower, this place will become the territory of the Kamala family. At that time, all parties involved in the war will jointly fund and build a medium-sized human city here, and then share the surrounding Black Forest resources.
It was precisely because they were tempted by huge benefits that the Kamala family did their best to crusade against the Crimson family this time, bringing almost all the wizards and noble private troops of the family.
Now that they have arrived here and successfully blocked the Crimson family wizard underground, how to fight next has become a problem that everyone needs to think about carefully.
Although the wizards had already arrived with ease, a large number of siege equipment and servant army were left more than 100 miles away, and they were trekking hard on the muddy pond-like forest path.
According to the current speed of travel, it will take at least 7 days to wait until the army of servants arrives.
Wizards can't wait!
For them, every day is so precious. Now they have wasted 7 days in vain waiting for those servants who are playing corners, they really can't bear it.
Therefore, on the night they arrived at the Flame Cave, the two third-level wizards called together all the wizards to discuss the matter of attacking and suppressing the Flame Throne Witch Tower first.
From the flame cave to the lava hall underground, there is at least half a mile of underground lava cave to go through. It is conceivable that the wizards of the Crimson Family must have set up layers of organs and dense witchcraft traps inside.
Therefore, their top priority now is to clear a path leading directly to the lava hall first.
And this task was given to a group of fourteen people from Molin Cabin.
The Devilwood Lodge is a small wizarding faction located in the central part of Santareen, known for its expertise in crafting low-level witchcraft items. The leader of the faction is a second-level alchemy wizard, and all the thirteen members under him are experts in the alchemy industry.
Roy, the second-level alchemist wizard, the leader of the Molin Cabin, was naturally dissatisfied with such an assignment. However, when the third-level wizard Yurga promised that after clearing the traps in the flame cave, the wizards in their magic forest hut would not have to participate in the first three rounds of task assignments to besiege the Wu Tower, so he reluctantly nodded in agreement.
Therefore, when many wizards stayed in the camp on the surface to rest and prepare for the next battle, the fourteen magic forest hut wizards filed into the flame cave with its big black mouth.
…………
Flame Cave.
Due to the existence of the underground lava sea, the temperature in the cave is obviously higher than the outside world by more than ten degrees.
As soon as the second-level wizard Roy led the people into the passage, he smelled a strong and pungent sulfur smell, which made him frown.
According to legend, there are many second-level wizards in that crimson family!
This kind of leading task fell on him. Even if Roy was a second-level wizard, he couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp and heart.
They came here with a large army this time, but they meant to eradicate each other by the roots. In this case, it's strange that the opponent didn't fight back desperately!
So, as soon as he stepped into the cave passage, Roy stopped and waved at the many men behind him.
As alchemists, they naturally have their own unique fighting style.
Two of the thirteen Tier 1 alchemy wizards took a step forward, took out one of the densely packed vials of medicine at their waists, uncorked the bottle, and lightly threw it in front of them.
In the next second, two one-meter-tall, heavy and solid earth elementals crawled out of the ground and stood silently in front of the wizard.
"Go ahead and find the way!" The two wizards immediately issued an order.
The two figures were the same as human beings, and their bodies were completely made of black mud. The earth element with a rough face and only vague facial features could only see the blurred features, and immediately rushed towards the other end of the passage side by side with heavy footsteps.
They had only rushed out ten meters, and a witchcraft trap in the corner of the cave wall was directly triggered.
A burst fireball exploded instantly between the two earth elements!
The raging flames and violent shock waves knocked the two earth elementals to the ground, the surface of their bodies scorched and cracked quickly, and then shattered bit by bit like fallen porcelain.
In this way, two senior apprentice-level earth elementals were killed by a burst fireball trap!
For such a loss, many wizards in the Molin Lodge didn't care. After blocking the explosion shock wave with the witchcraft shield, the two wizards took out two bottles of blue potion from their waist pockets and threw them in front of them.
As the medicine vial continued to roll forward, a thick blue liquid flowed out of it, forming a ball on the hard and hot floor.
Following the wizard's simple witchcraft call, two ice elementals with biting coldness crawled out of the potion. They also only have the strength of senior apprentices, but they have long-range ice attack spells.
The two ice elements obviously didn't like the environment here, and looked around irritably as soon as they were summoned, and there were only two groups of blue and cold lights on the ice face that could not see the facial features.
"go!"
These low-level element summoned creatures do not have complete intelligence consciousness at all, so they are unlikely to comprehend overly complicated instructions, so the orders issued by wizards are often very simple and rude.
The two ice elements immediately roared and rushed towards the depths of the cave!
Who knew that just after stepping on the residue of the earth element, he rushed out two steps, and another burst fireball burst between the two guys.
After a while, after the violent flame shock wave dissipated slowly, only two pools of black scorched marks could be seen on the spot, and no half trace of the ice elemental remains could be found!
The two alchemists shrugged regretfully, and threw out two new potion vials again.
This time, two high-end stone elements crawled out of it!
