Abe the Wizard-Chapter 1380 - God Rank War

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“In coming attack!” Wizard Smith sensed a change in the guardian wings and called.

At the same time, he unleashed his world and wrapped himself in it. There were 8 god rank wizards around, and there was no way the Holy Kingdom had 8 god rank knights.

Therefore, they had an advantage when it came to suppressing energy.

As Wizard Smith called, the other 7 god rank wizards also showed their world, and large amounts of spells began to unleash from within for a vicious blow.

“Charge into their formation!” Knight Balmain smirked.

The 6 god rank knights formed an arrow head with Knight Balmain at the very front. Their worlds were also unleashed with a powerful aura sparkling on their bodies.

Their assistance aura beefed up their defense by ranks, and it was especially targeted towards magical attacks.

As for their own attack, the preaching and madness aura allowed them to decrease their enemy’s resistance to all attributes to a critical level in close proximity.

The holy freeze and holy charge aura also allowed them to create countless energy shock waves, and anyone who entered their range would be affected by lightning and ice.

Since those auras were all unleashed from within a world, their power was much stronger than the ones unleashed by non god ranks.

On top of the formations they were in, the attacks those knights would take were also equally distributed.

Therefore, as long as a wizard could not injure those knights all at once or break their formation, it would be very hard to do any damage.

Knight Balmain knew very well what made knights strong. He had been practicing knight formation since he was young, and each extra holy knight would make a tremendous power difference.

Even as a god rank, this logic applied.

“Glory to my lord!” Knight Balmain roared as the 6 god rank knight charged towards the wizards.

“Protect the workers!” Wizard Smith saw the murderous knights and frowned. Considering how low key the Holy kingdom was acting these days, he was expecting the knight to move with less vigor.

The 8 god rank wizards formed a line and moved towards the knights.

Meanwhile, both the wizard union and the holy kingdom had their gaze fixed on what was happening.

Although a god rank battle had happened between god rank knights and Abel’s summoned some time ago, the scale of this battle was much bigger.

Also, that battle happened in the Battlecry plateau, so not many wizards had the opportunity to witness it.

Since the wizard union was expecting war to break out in the front line, they’ve already ordered the dwarves to set up some surveillance circle long ago.

This way, all the wizards in the wizard union headquarter and the defense wall of Doomsday could see exactly how this god rank war went down.

For the Holy Kingdom, they could also see everything from the Guardian wing’s perspective.

After all, it was the biggest battle between wizards and knights in the past thousands of years.

Both sides were extremely confident while the 5000 worker dwarves and 500 magic circle making wizards continued to work below them.

Soon, the knights entered the wizard’s attack range, and hundreds of fire walls charged forward, followed by frozen balls.

Since those wizards had been preparing those attacks for a while, the energy those spells accumulated was scary.

The fire walls and ice balls covered the kights, so they immediately shrunk their formation and unleashed holy bolts from their world.

Those bolts were not for attacks but to defuse the wizards’ spell.

This almost instantly lessened their damage by half, and their holy aura soon began to replenish their life force.

Just like that, the 6 god rank knights charged out of the wizards’ attack. It soon was their turn to strike.

Lightning and ice shock waves rushed towards the wizards, and the wizards instinctively flashed away to dodge.

Wizard Smith couldn’t understand. What was motivating those knights to take so much risk? Their attacks definitely did some damage to the knights, more or less.

Stamina was key in a god rank battle. Even slight injuries could undermine their ability to make attacks and regenerate with adequate amounts of suppression.

“That’s not right. Their target is not us but the workers!” Wizard Smith saw the knights speeding down and felt his heart drop.

Knight Balmain smirked. Those wizards were just thinking of self defense.

He knew very well how hard it was to kill a god rank wizard with their speed, so his target was the workers from the start.

By that point, the wizards were also clear about what was going on, so they flashed forward again.

But approaching knights was not a good idea considering how weak wizards’ close range attacks were.

A god rank knight could unleash tens of close range attacks from their worlds and break a god rank wizards’ defense at an instant.

As the wizards hesitated, the 6 god rank knights were already approaching the workers.

The 500 magic circle making wizards quickly ignited their magic circles, but it was useless. As the knights unleashed their energy, their souls were immediately smashed into pieces, and they dropped dead without a

single physical injury.

Soon, the dwarves were also killed, and their puppets came to a halt. A red glow began to spark from some of their bodies.

It was the assistance aura, and their soul energy was immediately transferred to the knights, and they began repairing their injuries.

In just a few moments, those 6 god rank knights were back on top condition.

“Damn it, drag out our distance. They are using the dead bodies to regenerate!” Wizard Smith yelled.

Even without Wizard Smith’s warning, all the wizards knew they were not in a good situation with all those dead bodies around.

Fresh dead bodies were the best nourishments for god rank knights, and Wizard Smith has totally miscalculated. He was planning to give those knights a big hit from the start and slowly drain their energy afterward,

but things played out completely differently.

The 8 god rank wizards were furious, they could ignore the death of those dwarves and wizards, but they could not ignore when their names were on the line.

They thought victory was on their side with their greater number, so they were the one broadcasting this battle to the wizard union headquarter, and what happened was a total embarrassment.

“Damn them all!” Wizard McPhee grunt. Since god rank wizards were better at fighting alone, he flashed and unleashed 10 spells from his world. A classic wizard move.

The other 7 god rank wizards followed, and soon spells filled the battlefield.

Knight Balmain remained as the head of the formation, but he did not leave the dead bodies considering how much benefit it gave them.

He quickly moved around with his formation to dodge the spells. Even if some spell managed to land a hit, it wouldn’t do much damage, and they could quickly recover with the dead bodies.

Since the knights had no way of striking back, it looked like the wizards were dominating.

But soon, Wizard Smith began to call “stop the attacks and step back!” By that point, all the wizards also realized what was going on. Half of the valuable components for the Howling Castle were damaged by their

spells.

This was exactly what knight Balmain wanted.

“Haha, those wizards are so stupid, let’s play again next time!” He laughed.

Afterward, he unleashed his energy aura and charged back to the guardian wings.

At the same time, the 5 knights behind him unleashed large amounts of Preaching hammers from their world and filled the sky with them.

If those god rank wizards wanted to chase after them, they had to bypass those hammers, which gave those knights more than enough time to escape.

Therefore, the wizards remained still, and their faces sank. The first god rank war was a loss.

The lives of those worker dwarves and magic circle maker wizards did not mean much in the grand scheme of things, but the wizard union’s confidence definitely took a huge hit. God rank wizards were the most

powerful forces of this world, yet they lost to knights even with a greater number.

However, this was actually not the wizards’ fault. The outcome of this battle was already decided with their fighting style.

The god rank wizards also lacked experience when it came to a huge war with god rank knights like this, so it was a mistake to bring so many worker dwarves and magic circle making wizards in the first place.

Meanwhile, cheers broke out in the Holy kingdom. This victory was exactly what they needed after Thief God Milton’s killing spree and the losses they took.

The only one not enjoying their victory was the saint. Since he was initially opposed to the invasion, his authority was further impacted as a result..
