<h4>Chapter 756: Northern Icefield</h4>


    The battle in the northern part of the ne was beyond the scope of low-ranking mages such as Sein and the regrbat legions of the Magus World.


    If over a hundred thousand mages from the four divine towers each unleashed a single magic spell, theirbined efforts would be enough to threaten a Rank Four or higher creature—much like how a swarm of ants could bring an elephant to its knees.


    However, the four Divine Towers, whether the affluent Divine Tower of Verdant me or the less affluent Divine Tower of Verdant Spring, were reluctant to expend their precious mages in such a high-stakes siege against superior creatures.


    For the involved divine towers, even the loss of a small number of mages was deemed an unbearable setback.


    In the Magus World, the lives of knights and mages were valued far more than those of extranar creatures.


    In a typical internar war, the life of one knight was worth more than ten enved creatures of the same rank, while the value of a mage was several times greater than that of a knight.


    A legion of more than a hundred thousand mages was stationed at a significant distance from the Northern Icefield.


    Even the two space fortresses that loomed over the Magus Civilization Army halted their advance, not from a reluctance to risk the lives of valuable mages, but because with a Rank Six mage like Feylis on the battlefield, additional support from lower-ranked mages was unnecessary.


    If Feylis could not handle even two severely injured foreign Gori Gods, she would struggle in Magus World.


    Despite her “rtively young age” among the Rank Six mages of the Magus World, her strength definitely ranked top among them.


    If this was not the case, the head of the Pyro Secret Society, a top-tier power in the Magus World, would not be so eager to recruit her.


    To Sein and other low-ranking mages, Rank Five mage Gregory was undoubtedly a formidable force, adept in both physical violence and elemental magic.


    However, among creatures of Rank Four and above, Feylis held a more esteemed reputation than her own apprentice.


    Her formidable power and high standing often made her seem out of reach to those like Sein, who were below Rank Four, obscuring her exact standing within the upper echelons and powerhouses of the Magus World.


    The legions of native nts and undead creatures led by Sein were the firstbat troops from the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring to reach the northern ins.


    However, before his arrival, an elite legion of nearly a million strong from the Divine Tower of Verdant me and Divine Tower of Whispering me had already been stationed there long ago.


    Morebat legions from the Magus World were converging from all corners of this world.


    News had recently arrived that another mixed elite legion of three hundred thousand from the east, hailing from the Divine Tower of Floating me, was expected to join them on the icefield within a week.


    Since the Rank Four Gori God on the battlefield near the ne’s navel had been killed, it was expected that Sein’s mentor, Lorianne, along with her two other seniors, would also arrive soon.


    Meanwhile,bat legions from the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring and the other two divine towers were also converging toward the northern ice field.


    The vast disparity in strength allowed the four divine towers to suffer minimal losses after defeating the Wild Gori Army in the Verdant Wilderness World.


    The Magus World Army managed to catch their enemies off guard and fought valiantly.


    Under these circumstances, it was impossible for them to suffer huge losses. Any losses incurred werergely among the enved creatures used as cannon fodder.


    For this medium-sized internar war, each of the four divine towers had prepared at least a million enved creatures in reserve.


    Although the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring’s resources were not as extensive as the other three towers, Lorianne had prepared at least half a million nt creatures catalyzed by Viridescent Seeds.


    Since the Verdant Leaf World War proceeded more smoothly than expected, Lorianne managed to conserve arge number of the Viridescent Seeds she had prepared.


    Considering the umtion over recent decades, coupled with a wealth of dendro elemental resources acquired from the Verdant Leaf World War, it was no surprise that Lorianne had managed to amass an impressive force.


    At the garrison zone on the edge of the northern icefield, Sein reunited with Selphy.


    Despite not seeing each other for half a year, Selphy remained as warm as ever toward him.


    Sein’s magic tower was initially constructed by the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring, but in the end, he was convinced by Selphy to relocate to arger magic tower funded by the Divine Tower of Verdant me.


    This new tower was situated between the fortress bases of the two divine towers.


    Sein could not help but wonder if his grandmaster had yed a role in this, but the new magic tower was clearly far more luxurious than the one originally assigned to him by the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring.


    Given Leena and Faye’s special status, it was also better for them to remain hidden from too many mages within the Divine Tower of Verdant Spring. Therefore, Sein dly epted Selphy’s offer.


    Not only did Sein and his “family” move to the new tower, but nt and undead creatures under hismand were also relocated to the icefield between the two fortress bases.


    They stayed close to Sein’s new magic tower, braving the harsh cold winds.


    The nt creatures under Sein’smand had been through several battles in recent years. Many of the newer recruits had fought against the Wild Gori Army and held up well against the bitter cold.


    As for the undead creatures, they werepletely unbothered by the freezing conditions. They stood motionless like sentinels, unwavering in the strong winds.


    “It shouldn’t be this cold out here, but the forests that once existed here have been destroyed. Without the shelter of those trees, it’ll be hard for weaker creatures to survive here in the future,” Green Spikefur King squeaked as it curled into a ball beside Sein.


    Therge green hedgehog appeared to be struggling in the cold, but the temperature did little to diminish its fighting spirit as it insisted on following Sein to the north.


    Another demigod-level being, a small kingfisher with a wingspan of less than two meters, had also arrived.

    The kingfisher, possibly rted to the guardian, originally hailed from the Trilly Forest in the southeast of Verdant Wilderness World.


    In this northern icefield, they were the only two native demigods.


    ording to the contractual agreement between the Magus World and the native creatures of the Verdant Wilderness World, these two demigods were exempted from participating in the uing battle.


    However, both had insisted on joining.


    Even the usually gentle dendro elemental creatures had their temper and stubborn sides.


    The Wild Gori Army had brought devastation to the creatures of this world, so they refused to let those wild goris off the hook so easily.


    The Green Spikefur King had another reason for being here though—to serve the god named Lorianne whom it revered.
