In the coastal waters, even the sea creatures dare not attack the Noy family's fleet!
It has to be said that Servie is quite capable for daring to lead four people into the island battle. Even in such a chaotic situation, they were able to break out in an orderly manner without anyone getting injured!
Even though they were quite strong, they were exhausted from breaking through the encirclement. The moment they boarded the ship, they all collapsed to the ground. Only Evan had some strength left and maintained his last bit of dignity, leaning gently against the railing of the deck.
"To think that even Sister Servie is so exhausted, it seems this year's competition is going to be fierce." A young man from the Noy family walked up to the group and said in surprise when he saw their disheveled appearance.
The blonde girl, Servie, who was lying sprawled on the ground, rolled her eyes upon hearing this: "Stop pretending. Don't tell me you don't know what happened on the island?"
Others don’t know, so doesn’t she know?
The legendary wizard who orchestrated the island battle was an ancestor invited by the Noy family, a legendary wizard of the fifth rank!
That's why the Noi family holds such a special position in the island battle, and the original intention of this ritual was to weaken the emerging power of the sea race.
They weren't afraid the sea creatures wouldn't come, because it was a calculated move. If they came, they would be besieged by a large number of adventurers; if they didn't come, the sea creatures' dignity would be trampled underfoot.
So this guy definitely knows what happened on the island.
"Hehe~ That Isaac is indeed quite good. No wonder he was the one who defeated the eldest princess head-on." The young man chuckled.
"Oh? He defeated the eldest princess? Or from the front?" Evan asked in surprise.
The eldest princess was also quite famous, even more so than Isaac. This was due not only to her noble status but also to her choices. Despite being born into royalty, she could only become a legendary wizard, even without knightly or magical talents.
Even if she followed the normal path of a legendary wizard, with the resources of the royal family, she could have a smooth journey and might even have become a leading figure among the younger generation. After all, although legendary wizards are still wizards, they don't actually need intelligence; they can become very strong by simply throwing resources at them.
But she chose to make a deal with the Outer Gods and became a mad witch!
Of course, judging from Evan's perspective, there should also be elements of royal planning involved, especially after she received a surge of royal resources.
Moreover, as an arcane mage, he knew the princess's strength better than anyone else. Not to mention, she had a whole legion of golems, something that even ordinary middle-class nobles couldn't afford!
She also has a mage tower, something that even high-level wizards might not be able to afford to build!
Not to mention, the Terran Emperor even created an Imperial Decree specifically for her to protect her dealings with the Outer Gods.
All of these factors combined make its actual combat power extremely impressive!
But this grand princess, so extravagantly powerful, was actually defeated by Isaac in a direct battle? A legitimate wizard?
Why?
This was the question on the minds of everyone in Servy's team at that moment.
Seeing their confusion, the young man smiled slightly and looked towards the island with great emotion, saying, "I can't say much about the specifics, there are prohibitions from above. You can ask your own families. All I can say is the evaluation of him by the Archmage Mensa Baros."
"A Grand Archmage?!" Evan looked at the young man seriously. "What do you mean?"
"Isaac is a true mad witch!"
"A real mad witch? Are there fake mad witches?" Servie regained some strength, leaning on her longsword as she slowly got up from the ground, looking at Evan, who was filled with shock, with doubt.
"……madman!"
Evan's cheeks twitched slightly, and he did not answer Servie. After a long while, he uttered these two words.
The young man smiled knowingly; he had the same expression when he first heard it.
"Hey! Don't be riddle tellers! Is this really such a high compliment?" Servie said somewhat displeased.
Evan remained silent for a moment, still not answering Servie, but simply shook his head with a heavy expression: "This matter cannot be discussed. If you are meant to know, you will know; if you are not meant to know, even if I tell you, you will not remember."
Then, he looked at the island, stared at it for a moment, and asked the young man, "Isaac, is he really not going to hold the evil god ritual here?"
“No, he told us about it as soon as he arrived in East Harbor. He’s an interesting guy, not like what people say. He seems... quite steady.” The young man said with a strange expression.
Evan was silent, a madman, or steady?
Either he's gone mad, or the world has gone mad...
Evan shook his head and sighed, "As long as they're not here to perform an evil god ritual, then it's fine."
After a pause, Evan seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, after the competition is over, could you help me arrange a meeting with him? I have some things I'd like to discuss with him."
Evan wanted to try again...
He panicked even more after learning that Isaac was a real mad witch!
If he was only 80% sure he would do that before, he can now be certain that Isaac will definitely use the evil god ritual instead of the ascension ritual!
Because that's what real mad witches do!
The strongest and fastest!
That's their goal!
As for the risks...
Who cares if someone becomes a mad witch?
It's all or nothing!
Ivan didn't care whether Isaac lived or died; what he cared about was his own merit!
He certainly doesn't want his name to be etched in history in this way in the future.
The young man glanced at Evan with some surprise, but seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, he didn't ask any further questions. He wasn't interested either; what good could something related to a mad witch possibly be?
"It seems like it's almost over."
"boom!"
As soon as the young man finished speaking, a crimson light shot into the sky!
Chapter 129 Sea Clan Wizard: Prepare to receive the sea clan's generous gift! Mad Wizard! Hehehehehe
A few minutes earlier, just as Servy and the others arrived at the ship, the chaotic battle on the other island had gradually stabilized.
Ultimately, the Necromancer Tyrant is only a second-tier monster, and its stats are not much higher than other adventurers. In fact, it is even slightly inferior to some powerful adventurers. The reason it can cause such a huge disturbance is entirely due to its noble mechanics.
But even the most powerful mechanics need numerical values to back them up, and under the siege of numerous adventurers, the Necromancer Tyrant eventually fell.
However, it had already exceeded its mission objectives. After causing a ruckus, it not only helped Isaac figure out the combat strength of the remaining members on the island, but also eliminated a large number of adventurers.
Some were killed in the chaos of battle, some were corrupted by the magic of death, and some, like Servie and the others, simply withdrew. As a result, only a little over a thousand adventurers remained in the end.
Most of them are second-order, with only a few first-order ones.
This is completely different from Isaac's previous predictions; he thought the third island would have two or three thousand second-level structures!
However, he roughly realized where he went wrong: he had underestimated the number of sea creatures on the desert island and the forest island.
The Noy family or the sea creatures should have the ability to monitor and influence the teleportation mechanism, which could stabilize the sea creature population on the two islands. Otherwise, given the sea creature population and replenishment rate on the forest island where Isaac is located, it's hard to say who would hunt whom!
Isaac is more inclined to believe that the Noy family controls this mechanism, because the sea creatures wouldn't be so foolish as to send their own people to their deaths.
Having figured this out, Isaac became bolder. Although nearly a thousand second-tier beings were quite strong, they were nothing special to him. The real trouble was the sea creatures.
Adventurers come to the island only to make money. Once he proves his unparalleled strength, the rest is just a matter of dividing the spoils. He can win over some, and those he can't will naturally leave.
But the sea creatures are different. These guys participate in the island battles for their faith, and they can be incredibly fierce when they fight!
This third day doesn't have the teleportation mechanism to split the players like the first two days, making it difficult!
Fortunately, the steady Isaac still has a solution!
Therefore, after the Necromancer Tyrant was killed, Isaac decisively took action, immediately unleashing Dimensional Descent!
A crimson radiance shot into the sky, and visible scarlet magic surged from Isaac's body, forming a thick pillar of magic that shot straight into the clouds!
Within the pillar of magical light, Isaac's figure slowly rose, and shimmering spatial ripples appeared behind him. To everyone's astonishment, a mountain of flesh was squeezed out of the void!
"puff!"
Immediately afterwards, as if a volcano had erupted, countless pieces of flesh spewed out from the volcano, and more than a thousand great sword demons took shape in the air, then scattered to the ground like meteors!
And this was just the beginning. Isaac threw a handful of crimson treasures at the mountain of flesh behind him. These were the treasures he had collected from hunting sea creatures over the past two days. Under normal circumstances, even if he had these, he wouldn't be able to summon many Greatsword Demons.
But this is clearly not normal. A handful of gems were thrown down, and endless magic followed closely behind, surging wildly into the mountain of flesh behind Isaac. Together with the flesh nest, it accelerated the catalysis of the Greatsword Demon. With the intake of massive amounts of magic, the mountain of flesh trembled and once again spewed out a large amount of life essence, which condensed in the air to form the Greatsword Demon!
Almost instantly, the number of Greatsword Demons exceeded two thousand!
Upon witnessing this scene, all the adventurers, sea creatures, and young members of the Noy family on the ship paled in shock.
Two thousand second-tier!
And they're Greatsword Demons! A whole unit of Greatsword Demons!
If this force were to be confronted head-on, it could even kill two or three high-ranking knights!
Of course, this is just data on paper. The actual situation is another matter, because the high-ranking knights can run and are much faster than the second-tier greatsword demons. They also have mastered many advanced combat skills. In a real fight, the two thousand greatsword demons would be the ones to lose.
Moreover, these two thousand greatsword demons are under Isaac's control. With the power of a high-ranking knight, taking his head from among this army would be a piece of cake.
However, despite that, there were no Tier 3 experts among the adventurers and sea creatures present. Decapitation? Let's break through the two thousand Great Sword Demons and rush to their front first!
The shock to the Noy family was even more direct: two thousand Great Sword Demons...
And they were a whole unit of Greatsword Demons!
Legions of this caliber are extremely rare even in the entire empire!
In the entire Terra Empire, only the one thousand Royal Guards directly commanded by the Emperor have reached the level of Tier 2!
Yes, in terms of numbers, they are half as many as Isaac!
Of course, there's a cost-effectiveness issue involved. Maintaining two thousand Great Knights is very expensive, and those who can cultivate into Great Knights all have a certain amount of talent. At least if you take a chance, the chances of breaking through to a High Knight are much higher.
Furthermore, although knights today can no longer directly ascend to the ranks of nobles as they used to, a great knight can still easily become a nobleman if he wants to. For example, not all of the barons appointed by Solomon were great knights.
This is because Solomon is a border noble, and the competition is inherently fierce. If it were an ordinary pioneering noble, the Grand Knight could easily obtain a noble position simply by joining.
Even the most ordinary lord is still a nobleman!
That's why major empires and kingdoms almost never have armies composed of second-tier superhumans. After all, who would want to be a common soldier under someone who can be a noble lord?
Furthermore, in this extraordinary realm, high-level individual combat power is clearly superior to a large number of mid-level combat power.
However, no matter what, Isaac's two thousand greatsword demons are a force to be reckoned with for any noble!
Because these two thousand Tier 2s just appeared out of nowhere!
No food or supplies are needed!
Why does such absurd witchcraft exist in this world?
