On the Wizard "Ship" Plane, the camp’s alarms echoed like funeral bells in the cold void.
Jeming, Viola, and over two hundred other logistics wizards quietly floated in the sky of the plane.
In the face of the vast rift in the sky, their figures seed insignificant.
As soon as the alarm went off, they were summoned back to the "Ship" Plane by the commanders.
This was the final retreat of the wizard expeditionary army and their safest headquarters.
Above, through the gigantic space rift tearing the sky apart, the war on the Ice and Fla Plane was clearly visible, directly presented before all the wizards.
At this mont, the battle situation was entirely disadvantageous for the expeditionary army.
The billions-strong army of magma giants and yetis, with their numbers and the advantage of native warfare, were frantically compressing the wizards’ lines.
The three strategic volcanoes of the magma giants, recharged by the Earth Vein Lava, periodically emitted red radiance, turning most of the battlefield into a thousand-degree Purgatory.
The intense heat greatly enhanced the power of the magma giants, transforming them into pure liquid magma, almost immune to physical attacks and most elental magic.
The surviving yetis, seizing the opportunity, launched a charge using ice magic on the other side, coordinating with the magma giants’ offensive to split the wizards’ cannon fodder troops.
Unlike the native magma giants and yetis, who could constantly gather reinforcents from the entire plane, their reserves numbered in the billions, almost inexhaustible.
The materials brought by the expeditionary wizards were limited.
Their biochemical beasts and golem cannon fodder needed to be airlifted, cultivated, and alchemically manufactured, and once overconsud, they could not be quickly replenished, relying only on the remote transportation from the plane workshop at the boundary point.
That was ti-consuming and laborious, akin to attempting to quench a thirst with distant water.
By now, the second round of war on the Ice and Fla Plane had lasted for over three days, with the corpses piled on the battlefield numbering in the tens of millions!
The wizards’ cannon fodder army had visibly reduced by more than half amid the tidal assaults.
Even though no particularly elite enemy units had joined the battle, faced with sheer nurical pressure and the disadvantageous strategic environnt, even so unfortunate combat wizards had suffered casualties.
The wizards’ front lines were being crushed under the torrent of magma giants and yetis, and the energy shields outside the camp emitted mournful wails under continuous bombardnt.
Occasionally, areas flickered with unstable rune lights, teetering as if about to be completely breached at any mont.
However, even though the wizards stationed at the rear witnessed such a perilous battle situation, their expressions held little fluctuation.
Jeming observed Viola’s cool side profile beside him, as well as the calm faces of other logistics wizards in the distance, and understood.
It seed that for these wizards who frequently participated in planar wars, the current disadvantage and even casualties were part of the calculations of the high-commanders.
This was rely the prelude to plane warfare; a greater storm was brewing.
Subconsciously, Jeming glanced behind him, where a massive cannon barrel had unexpectedly erged from the originally flat expanse of black scorched earth on the Wizard "Ship" Plane!
"This is... outrageous, this thing can no longer be called a cannon barrel..." Jeming thought to himself, staring at the astonishing caliber of the cannon.
The gigantic structure, with a caliber exceeding one kiloter, defied all his prior conceptions of a "cannon barrel."
At this mont, the terrifying cannon barrel’s interior was continuously accumulating energy.
Looking deep from the muzzle, clusters of eerily colored light were rapidly converging in the center of the barrel.
This was the astonishing spectacle ford by the compression of vast and pure elental energy to its utmost limit, with every gathering accompanied by subtle buzzing and distortion of the surrounding space, as if even the void felt uneasy before this power.
The energy was so imnse that Jeming could clearly perceive within it the great force capable of annihilating stars.
With the destructiveness of a wizard, if this were purely an offensive spell, it could likely shatter the Ice and Fla Plane into fragnts!
But doing so would utterly destroy the plane itself, which was not the goal of the Wizard Workshop’s invasion.
Thus, the spell loaded here from the start was not a purely offensive one, but rather targeted destructive magic.
While these two kinds of magic might sound similar, both carrying the word "destruction," they are actually completely different.
Offensive magic deals with pure physical or elental macroscopic destructive power, aid at destroying all visible matter and energy.
Targeted destructive magic, however, is "precision" destruction, not indiscriminate striking, but the deconstruction and nullification of specific targets.
At this mont, the cannon barrel was loaded with a ticulously crafted spell aid at deep destruction of magma giants!
This was the latest result devised by Master Elvin from Nolun Workshop, who worked tirelessly over the past less than ten days.
Similarly studying magma giants, Jeming’s research focused on discovering their weaknesses and, based on those, formulating thods of restriction and techniques.
Master Elvin’s research direction is even more profound; he focuses on targeting the most fundantal elental structure of the Magma Giant for destruction!
Simply put, this is a targeted attack that breaks down the particle structure of the Magma Giant from its most basic level.
It can perceive the most microscopic aspects of the living rock and magma plasma of the Magma Giant, disintegrating its molecular structure and essentially annihilating it.
Based on the information known to Jeming, besides the Magma Giant-targeted destruction technique researched by Master Elvin, another Fifth Level Wizard participating in this expedition has also developed a targeted destruction technique against the Yeti.
However, due to Karamos’s own sches regarding the Magma Giant, the Yeti suffered heavy losses in the attack, so there’s currently no need for a Yeti-targeted technique.
Boom...
Soon, those twisted light orbs in the barrel reached an extre point of condensation, suddenly transforming into a terrifying energy beam with a kaleidoscope of colors!
The beam tore through the void, emitting a deafening roar, directly crossing the rift in the sky to bombard the battlefield on the Ice and Fla Plane.
After leaving the barrel, the beam rapidly expanded, extending to tens of kiloters as it passed through the spatial rift!
Its light instantly enveloped most of the battlefield, casting all creatures present in a strange and pure radiance.
Utter silence...
Faced with the sudden attack, the clamor at the center of the battlefield ca to an abrupt halt.
However, a bewildering scene unfolded!
Within that grand and colorful beam, neither the Wizard’s cannon fodder army nor the Yetis of the Frost Dark Realm, nor even the frail flowers and sturdy rocks, suffered any damage.
They remained standing in place, neither lting nor freezing, as if this light was rely a vividly colored natural phenonon.
Yet, the previously mighty and fearso Magma Giants, who liquefied under high temperatures and swept all before them, underwent a drastic change.
Upon contact with the beam, their bodies began to tremble violently, instinctively emitting painful wails filled with despair and indescribable fear!
Their molten bodies collapsed like sandcastles, their flowing lava blood boiling and disintegrating, completely decomposed in the beam in an instant.
They weren’t shattered, nor burned; instead, they were directly broken down into minuscule particles from the material level, ultimately returning to nothingness!
In re seconds, millions of Magma Giants vanished completely from the battlefield!
This sudden, precise strike stunned all native participants in the Ice and Fla Plane, as they had never witnessed such an eerie and efficient annihilation thod.
But the wizards did not remain idle!
"All Combat Wizards, advance at once! Cannon fodder units, press forward! Annihilate the remnants!" As the aftermath of the beam’s bombardnt lingered, Augustine’s orders were clearly transmitted to every Combat Wizard through the Magic Net.
The Combat Wizards were already prepared; like hunting falcons, they took advantage of the evaporating Magma Giants and the battlefield chaos, while the Yetis were montarily dumbfounded, directing the cannon fodder army to launch a massive offensive.
The Wizard’s cannon fodder army let out thunderous roars as they ruthlessly rolled over the scorched earth left by the disappeared Magma Giants, targeting the Yeti legions still in shock.
All sorts of spells poured down like rain, as Steel Golems and Flesh Giants charged without hesitation.
The Wizard’s attack, like an irresistible torrent, swept away all remaining Magma Giants and Yeti forces on the battlefield!
Soon, the indigenous troops fell into utter defeat.
The previously proud and mighty large army now had no spirit remaining.
Both the remnants of the Magma Giants and the Yeti army fled in panic, leaving everything behind and escaping towards their point of origin.
The original formations were completely lost, leaving only disorganized and panicked flight.
The two notoriously irritable Kings of Monsters outside the battlefield—Karamos and Aglon—despite seeing their troops utterly defeated, couldn’t bla their subordinates.
They were both shocked by the terrifying destructive power of that single beam.
It was neither fire nor ice, yet it could make millions of Magma Giants disappear instantly!
This had surpassed their understanding of the inherent laws in this plane—a power incomprehensible to them.
Their eyes were filled with gravity and dread, no longer daring to act recklessly.
Above the "Ship" plane, Viola watched through the sky rift as this scene unfolded on the Ice and Fla Plane, observing millions of Magma Giants vanish in an instant and the Yeti legions defeated under the Wizards’ iron heels, a subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She looked at Jeming beside her, whose eyes were also flashing with astonishnt, and softly said:
"Now, the war enters the second stage."
