Ushering In The Internet Era In The Magical World

A giant six-pointed star array that was about 30 meters across began to rise up behind Yu Sheng'an's back.

It looked just like the sun!

With shocked gazes, countless Willis' residents witnessed how a 20-meter-tall giant that was covered in dark red lava stepped out of the six-pointed star array.

"March, you destroyed my people's food, so I shall destroy your magical plantation! Smash it up for me!!!"

The furious declaration reverberated throughout Willis City.

"Rrrr—"

The lava giant roared before raising its fists up and bringing them down to smash the magical plantation.

"Ohm!"

A light green magical shield rose up to fend the attack; it hovered above the magical plantation like an inverted porcelain bowl.

"Boom!"

A loud bang was heard. A pair of fists that were completely made up of rocks and lava smashed against the shield with a mighty force, causing ripples after ripples!

Shock waves after shock waves rushed toward the edge of the shield.

As if the sound waves were squeezed into a sound barrier, surpassing the threshold of resistance, the shield crashed into pieces!

In that instant, the power that was released became shockwaves that blew up rocks and sand!

The lava giant who crushed the magic shield, didn't stop there. It moved its legs and stomped into the plantation. Countless precious plants were turned into ashes under its feet.

Puddles and puddles of boiling hot lava were oozing from its body and landing on the magic plantation. It was a complete devastation wherever it went.

Fires were soon burning everywhere.

The rumbling sounds of the trampling had shocked the crowd into a deathly silence.

"What is… that?"

At that moment, everyone in Willis City was staring in stupefaction.

Their eyes and mouths were wide open. They had even forgotten to scream and run for their lives.

It was already too late for them to run when they finally reacted.

They could only look at that giant figure wreaking havoc in the plantation and that youthful face with a fearful and terrifying gaze.

Of course, there were also many who were flushed with excitement, who decidedly set their minds to pursue power right then!

At that moment, even the knowledgeable and experienced mage apprentices were so shell-shocked that they trembled, perspired and froze on the spot.

Ajaf, who had suddenly appeared, was a mysterious but very mild-mannered mage, just like Dorman, the Son of the Forest. He had the appearance of a researcher-type mage.

Many even took him to be another Dorman.

However, nobody had ever thought that Ajaf was in fact a summoning mage. That lava giant had almost confirmed his identity as a mage instructor!

What was even more unexpected was, his character and temper was actually quite irascible and aggressive!

He thrashed a mage's plantation without a moment's hesitation, just because a mallow was destroyed!

That was a magical plantation, which was almost equivalent to a gold mine.

Cutting off a person's source of income was equivalent to murdering his parents. That enmity wouldn't end unless one of them died.

Aileen, being the main person involved, was so shocked that it seemed as if she had been struck by lightning!

Her body trembled uncontrollably. It wasn't because of fear, but an indescribable tremor that shook her body and soul.

—Mister Ajaf thrashed Instructor March's magical plantation because of me?

Aileen looked at the calm-looking Mister Ajaf and a feeling called "A gentleman will die for the patron who recognizes his worth" had begun to take root in her heart right at that moment.

…

…

In the mansion's hall of the Willis Magic Plantation Federation Headquarters.

"March, is it true you humiliated Ajaf's assistant?"

"How did you know about that?"

March looked at his good friend Arthur with a surprised expression.

"This incident is already spreading on the school's forum! You're too impulsive! She's just an insignificant mage apprentice. Why did you have to humiliate her in public? Besides damaging your own reputation, you've also offended Ajaf."

"What reputation? I've already understood that as long as I have absolute power, who would dare to talk behind my back? Did Dandell have a good reputation before he became a Magical Deity?"

March continued on nonchalantly, "As for Ajaf? Huh. He's simply Dandell's dog. He's nothing."

Many members of the Federation instinctively nodded in agreement.

March's words were harsh but they made sense!

"Gentlemen, Dandell has quite a big appetite, judging from Ajaf's attitude. What do you gentlemen think we should do?"

"If worse comes to worst, we shall align ourselves with Lord Bell!"

"We can leave, but we will take our lands along with us…"

In the midst of their discussion, a soundwave pierced through the mansion's countless magical defenses and entered into all of their ears.

"March, you destroyed my people's food, so I shall destroy your magical plantation! Smash it up for me!!!"

All of them looked at March instinctively after hearing that.

March's expression changed drastically and a terrifyingly loud bang was heard as he stood up from the sofa.

"It came from outside of the city?"

"Oh dear. Judging from the sound… it seems to have originated from March plantation's general direction."

Everyone looked at March simultaneously with shock in their eyes.

March could no longer remain where he was. He rushed out like a madman by using the Levitation Technique.

Everyone stared at one another, before they swiftly chased after him.

Almost everyone present was a red-robed mage instructor, or even a purple-robed grand mage instructor.

When all of them took to the sky and saw the scene at March's plantation beyond the city. They were completely shocked, even though they had vast experience under their belts; their mouths were wide open!

March's eyes even turned red. Green veins had also popped up on his forehead!

"Ajaf, I'm going to kill you!" March roared hysterically and he shot to the exterior of the city in the blink of an eye. He waved his hands and numerous "stars" suddenly lit up around him.

The stars quickly became bigger and transformed into violent and unstable thunderballs.

It was the thunder-based magic—Lightning Ball!

"Go to hell!"

Countless thunderballs flew toward Yu Sheng'an!

Those thunderballs were blocked by a mysterious presence even before they reached Yu Sheng'an. A few winged-demons could be vaguely seen amidst the dense lightning flashes in the air.

At the same time, the crowd discovered that the sky had begun to darken!

Just like the darkness before a storm.

They looked up to the sky and saw massive black clouds starting to gather from all around. Countless lightnings were being built up in the dark clouds, like a thunder dragon revealing bits of its scales every now and then.

Many were terrified.

They began to rush toward the city. Of course, the bold ones were still standing where they were.

"This is… the 6th-tier magic, 'God's Punishing Hands'!!!"

Aileen's pupils dilated as she stared at Ajaf in terror. She was obviously worried for Ajaf!

Summoning magic was quite formidable. If it was well-prepared, one could take on several opponents at the same time.

It was also quite possible for one person to take out several mages at the same level as him!

However, it would be too awkward if it was ill-prepared, because summoning mages were too weak on their own. That was a special magic system after all; it had only a few magic variations, so it was natural for it to have awkward reactive measures.

Heaven and earth suddenly lit up just as Aileen looked at Yu Sheng'an.

Two extremely bright columns of light made many people close their eyes reactively.

Just before they shut their eyes, everyone saw how the black clouds roared and spat two lightning bolts.

One crashed down toward the lava giant;

The other was aimed at Yu Sheng'an!

Time seemed to have stopped at that moment.

The world was plunged into a deathly silence.

Once the blinding light had suddenly retreated, everyone instinctively looked at the place where Yu Sheng'an had been standing.

"This is—"

Amidst the sounds of thunder that came later, everyone was so shocked by the scene in front of them that they seemed to have lost their souls!
