Age of Adepts

The outbreak of the magic tide is like opening a Pandora's box, bringing huge troubles to all material planes.

How the other three major organizations are arranged and arranged, Greem has no idea.

He only knows that the central part of the mainland is really in trouble!

Since the front of the demon tide arrived in the wizarding world, more than a hundred incidents of alien invasions have been reported in the central part of the mainland every day. As for those who sneaked in through covert means, it is even more unknown.

The arrival of these invaders also brought unimaginable turmoil to the central part of the continent.

Most of them were randomly teleported to the wizarding world because they strayed into the space-time vortex, and some of them were across the endless void thousands of miles away. some...

Although the number of the former is large, their strength varies greatly. Therefore, most of them are lurking inside the wizarding world as smugglers, ready to escape to other planes at any time. Most of these guys are average in strength and don't have much organizational background. It is not difficult to deal with them. Basically, they will die one by one.

And the latter is much harder to deal with!

After all, they came prepared, either they were familiar with the environment of the wizarding world, or they were backed by strong strength. Either way, it's not a good thing for wizards, the rulers of this plane.

At present, there are as many as seven mass deaths on the Greem case, distributed in six regions. Behind every event is the fall and destruction of a human settlement.

"Mysterious death in Molten Fire City:"

"A large-scale mortal death occurred in the Skettis area today. The place is located in the east of the area, only 300 miles away from Molten Fire City. In a small town called Mars, 416 mortals died overnight. ..."

"According to the preliminary investigation, the deceased's body is all there, including clothes, financial and other items. All the dead are scattered around the town, and it seems that they died directly at the same moment due to some unknown reason..."

"All the deceased were smiling, their muscles were stiff, and no trace of extraordinary strength was found on the corpse after preliminary autopsy..."

"The time of death was the third day after the outbreak of the demon tide..."

"Currently, the death incident is being investigated and dealt with by the second-level wizard Freyna of Molten Fire City..."

...

...

"The Mysterious Disappearance of Clark's Treasure Well:"

"The Clark Alchemy Academy located in the Ankara area suddenly experienced an abnormal change. The Treasure Well, which is the main trial site of the academy, was shrouded in a mysterious white mist..."

"Currently, the eleven alchemy apprentices who are trying out in the treasure well have lost contact. Even an official wizard of the academy went to investigate and disappeared..."

"This incident probably happened on the third day when the demon tide broke out, and it is being investigated by Musu, a second-level wizard from the Entom family..."

...

...

"Entonas City Plague Event:"

"On the seventh day after the outbreak of the magic tide, a mysterious plague suddenly broke out in the city of Entonas in the Elasia region. The first outbreak of this kind of plague infected nearly 1/3 of the city's population, and the estimated number of infected people is 21,000 people..."

"After the outbreak of the plague, it began to spread to the surrounding area at an extremely fast speed. It has infected three surrounding villages and towns, and the scale of the epidemic is still expanding..."

"This area is jointly managed by three local organizations, Quilin Lodge, Deathstroke College, and Morin Stone Tower. They have all sent wizards to form a joint investigation team to investigate and control the plague..."

"From the information obtained, it can be seen that traces of taboo witchcraft were found in the plague toxins. The investigation team is urgently hunting down illegal wizards, and there is no sign of foreign invaders participating..."

...

...

Greem flipped through the briefings on the desk one by one, frowning all the time.

In the past, he only needed to control one aspect of the Crimson family's affairs, and with the help of Meryl and Emelia who worked hard, he didn't feel that family affairs were so complicated and difficult.

But now, with the entire central part of the continent gradually falling under his control, 31 large and small regions, 37.51 million square kilometers of land, thousands of wizard families... these have become areas that he must understand and control, The complicated affairs like mountains and seas flooded his desk like an avalanche.

You know, Meryl and Emelia filtered out most of the less urgent matters for him. Those that can be submitted to his desk are either involving Tier 4 wizards or Tier 4 forces, or have hidden secrets that require him, the Patriarch, to make up his mind...

Either way, it was enough to give him a headache for three days!

These days, ordinary family affairs have all been blocked, and these seven events with greater influence can be delivered to him, which fully shows that they are all inextricably linked with the current eruption of the demon tide.

Behind many seemingly insignificant things, it is very likely that a powerful and cunning creature from another plane has sneaked into the middle of the continent and is making waves there, performing some kind of terrible ritual or crazy killing.

Greem wasn't really worried about those guys who broke in and killed them all.

This kind of guy just wants to have a good meal, he eats and eats for a while, and he leaves naturally when he is full. For them, Greem's attitude is to expel them.

After all, there are too many monsters on the alien plane, and it is impossible to kill them.

Find them, drive them out again, and seal the cracks they've sneaked into. This was already the best result that Greem could imagine!

But it was often another kind of cunning guy that really gave Greem a headache.

They will not kill the Quartet just for the sake of quickness, which will attract the intervention of wizards. Like chameleons, they sneaked into the wizarding world quietly, and then used some method to cover their traces, and then disguised themselves to blend in with the local human nobles.

For some ulterior plans, they often stay hidden for decades, using their own special means to infect and hollow out the local human society bit by bit.

When the deeds are revealed, it will often cause the mass extinction of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people!

The spore-man invasion, snake-skin man invasion, undead invasion recorded in the wizard's handbook... Behind each of the horrific events that are endless in history, there are traces of the intervention of some great forces from outside the region.

After all, the wizarding world is a well-known large-scale plane, and the quality of human souls here is much higher than that of those small and medium-sized planes. Therefore, many demons and strange monsters from other worlds will abduct and sell the souls of creatures from the main planes as their sacred and noble cause.

They capture the souls of creatures from the main plane to their original plane, which will undoubtedly strengthen the strength of the original plane, and thus obtain more plane feedback. This is also a means and way for the plane world to strengthen itself!

If the central part of the continent he passed didn't belong to Greem, Greem wouldn't bother to worry about it anymore. But now, he has just ruled the entire central part of the continent in name, and if he allows the monsters from different planes to plunder souls in his 'turf', it will undoubtedly be a self-destructive thing.

Therefore, Greem asked Meryl and others to report all the mysterious incidents collected from various places after the outbreak of the demon tide, and then enter them into the chip database one by one, and let it compare with various information to find the most suspicious incidents.

Once there is a target, Greem will personally assign people to urge the local area to find out the real culprit behind the mysterious incident as soon as possible, and dig out these hidden moths from their nests one by one.

However, someone who can quietly sneak into the world of wizards, and then quietly hide, such a guy definitely has a strength above level 3. Therefore, at the moment of the final showdown, I am afraid that none of these old guys in the central region will be able to sit still, and they must use their resources to contribute part of their strength.

What worried Greem the most at the moment was the big dimensional rift in the Arden family's territory. From the outbreak of the demon tide to the present, nearly a hundred monsters or strange monsters or monsters above the second level have come out of that big space rift, and there are as many as three fourth-level monsters alone.

Of course, without exception, they were all killed on the spot by the dense witch towers and war witch towers. However, judging from the pictures from the scene, the quantity and quality of these monsters pouring into the plane are on the rise.

Once high-level calamity creatures or powerful star beasts come in, even if there are top wizards like Mary or Monash in command, it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net.

If it breaks through the first level and escapes to the inside of the plane, it will become extremely difficult to cull them!

After all, without the support of wizard towers, without the blessing of witchcraft, human wizards want to fight against alien monsters with thick skin, thick flesh, long blood and amazing resilience. It's so dangerous that even a super wizard like Greem has a headache when he thinks about it.

And the outbreak of the magic wave also tested the strength of the major wizard families from one aspect!

Take the Elovis and Hayworth regions controlled by the Crimson Family as an example. So far, there has not been a single incident of alien monsters harming local creatures.

In the past ten years, the Crimson Clan sent countless wizards and apprentices to almost every corner of the two regions, sealing up all the weak spots in the space, and setting up corresponding warning wizards. array.

Although the demon tide erupted and all the space gaps opened automatically, breaking through most of the space seals, the overall situation was still under the control of the Crimson family.

Whenever there is a situation in the warning witch array there, the nearest giant floating ship will rush here without hesitation. The Fate Witch accompanying the ship is responsible for finding the traces of the enemy, the family's battle wizards and magic weapon battle group are responsible for eliminating the invaders, and the academy wizards are responsible for re-sealing the space rift...

With the close cooperation of various power systems, no intruder can escape the pursuit of the Crimson Family and escape to human society. Therefore, the human kingdoms in these two areas still maintained stability and tranquility, and became the safest, most prosperous, and busiest places in the middle of the entire continent.

No way, other regions and other countries can't do this.

Those human nobles don't have any loyalty to speak of. In order to continue the family, in order to preserve the blood and inheritance, even in the farthest region in the middle, the local rulers will spend a lot of money to send their direct blood descendants to Crimson Houghton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the territory.

In this way, their strength can be improved, and they can avoid unknown risks.

Therefore, it has become a means of hedging that everyone is eager to emulate!
