The Lord of Ashes

Sylph has a nice light fragrance on her body.

Thain speculated that this might be the effect of some kind of special perfume or magic spice.

Compared to other first-level female magicians that Thain had come into contact with, such as Irene and others, the Sylph in front of her seemed to pay more attention to dressing up.

Two obsidian red gemstone earrings were worn on the earlobes by Sylph. Under the reflection of the molten sea in the distance, the red light shone brightly, and Sylph also had a certain temperament.

In addition, the silver bracelet on the wrist, the magic ring on the index finger and middle finger, and the golden necklace on the neck... all mark Sylph's wealth.

Of course, it may also be because Sylph is an alchemist and most of the magic tools she wears are made by herself.

Women's natural love for beauty made Sylph pay special attention to the appearance of the magic weapon when making it.

Sylph also has her own war mission. At this time, she and several familiar companions are about to return to the space fortress to submit the mission, and she does not have much time to spend on reminiscing with Thane.

Including Thane, he will also need to go to the fortress base with other magicians to receive combat missions.

After a brief exchange and talking about their recent situation, the two parted ways for the time being.

"The fortress should launch another push into the magma sea soon. I have just completed more than half a year of combat missions. I will probably stay in the space fortress for the rest of the war."

"If you have anything to do, you can come to me at any time, including on the battlefield. Disciples of the same sect should take care of each other." Sylph sent a message to Thain's mental power before parting.

Thain is not very good at socializing, but Sylph is a long-sleeved and versatile magician.

Among the Masters of the Jade Fire Master, we don’t know much about the second- and third-level magicians, Thain, but among the first-level magicians, Sylph is indeed the most popular.

And Sylph's kind of popular relationship is a little different from the kind of good relationship that Irene had in the Holy Tower of Blue Origin.

Sylph takes the initiative to maintain relationships and make friends with people who are useful to her.

Irene just has a better personality. When others ask her for help,

Irene rarely refuses, so naturally her popularity is better.

The way these two female magicians handle things, I can't say which one is better.

But if I have to let Thane judge, he still likes Irene more.

Because Sylph is passionate, but Thain can see a hint of utilitarianism in her eyes.

…

After parting ways with Sylph, Thane and the other magicians who arrived in the same batch went to the fortress base to receive combat missions.

At this time, hovering over the base is the space fortress of the Light Flame Holy Tower off the ground.

Compared with the space fortress of the Jade Burning Fire Holy Tower, the overall size of the space fortress of the off-the-ground Light Flame Holy Tower is smaller by a whole circle.

And observing this magnificent fortress at the bottom of the fortress, Thain discovered that there were many scratches and signs of serious wear and tear in many of the corner details of the fortress.

It has only been a few thousand years since Thane's fourth master, Penas, established the Holy Tower.

Being able to develop the Holy Tower of Light Flames off the ground is already a sign of Penas' considerable ability.

The space fortress in front of her is actually a second-hand space fortress that Penas purchased from the Wizards Alliance for a huge amount of magic coins two thousand years ago.

It could also be third-hand.

In short, compared to those brand-new space fortresses that have just been completed, Penas's space fortress is much cheaper.

It's not that Penas doesn't want to buy new and better ones, but that she has no money.

Even the masters of holy towers above level 4 have their own troubles and pursuits.

It's just that compared to the weak magicians below level four, the vision and pursuit of tower owners are obviously much higher.

At their level, the talk is at least hundreds of thousands of magic coins.

The space fortress in the sky is smaller, and the fortress base on the ground is also much smaller than the main fortress base in the center of the Flame Continent.

However, there are quite a few magician troops and slave biological legions around this base.

Thain didn't know exactly how many magicians were guarding the space fortress, but there were at least 30,000 to 40,000 magicians in and around the fortress base as far as Thain could see.

Not to mention, there are war airships in the sky from time to time, flying in from the depths of the dark clouds.

These are all supported from other regions of the Flame Continent.

The magician troops are coming.

The howls of the slave creature army echoed around the fortress base.

Most of them are slave cannon fodder of fire-type creatures. So far, more than 300,000 of them have accumulated around the fortress, and this number is still increasing.

Looking at these slave creatures of various shapes, Thane couldn't help but hold on to the Green Source Seed that his mentor Lu Lianman had given him.

The bag of Green Source Seeds that Lu Lianman gave to Thain originally contained almost three hundred seeds.

A dozen of them were consumed by Thane in the last war, and there are still many more now.

However, if this battle takes place above the sea of ​​magma, the effectiveness of these green source seeds may not be high.

The poisonous green flame world is indeed not suitable for plant magicians like Lu Lianman to fight. There are too many restrictions in all aspects.

…

The mission of Thain and the other magicians who had just arrived at the fortress base battlefield was indeed a relatively ordinary and common patrol mission.

For two months, Thane, together with other magicians, led the slave creature cannon fodder to patrol the nearby area.

The situation in the hinterland of the Flame Continent does not require the base to worry about.

Thain and other magicians participating in the war mainly focused on patrolling the magma sea eastward.

It was also during these two months that Thain finally saw what a "fire beast" was.

This is a medium-sized flame creature that lives in the shallows of the magma sea. It feeds on minerals, and its body also has the special ability to convert the heat energy of the magma into its own bioenergy.

The juvenile Fire Beast is only half a meter in size, and the average size of an adult Fire Beast is five to six meters.

However, I heard from some magicians in the fortress that they once encountered a giant fire beast that was over a hundred meters in size.

I don’t know exactly how many years this big guy has lived. In addition to his exaggerated size, his life level must also be high.

Thain has never seen one that big, but he has seen a fire melting beast with a size of about ten meters.

These fire-melting beasts are strange to say. They are so big and fierce in appearance, but they have a "docile" personality.

They run away if they can't be beaten, but they are also hostile to the wizard civilization army, and there are also many groups.

The combination of various complex factors and characteristics actually caused a lot of trouble for this wizard civilization army.
