Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 299 - 267: Overture to Another Expedition (Part 2)

Chapter 299: Chapter 267: Overture to Another Expedition (Part 2)

[Ding! Highest priority mandatory task received!]

[Task Code: Expedition-001]

[Task Requirement: All Expeditionary Army Wizards who receive this task must arrive at the designated coordinate area for assembly within three standard units of days. Those who disobey will be deemed deserters.]

[Task Coordinates:...(Current Location)]

Jeming’s Magic Network Terminal shook violently, the screen filled with bright red warning signs.

Looking at the content on it, he instantly understood that this was not a task sent to him individually, but a mandatory conscription for all Expeditionary Army Wizards across the entire Aerial Plane!

At that moment, Dionysius Spencer slowly turned around.

The usual gentle smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a serene indifference, as if overlooking all beings.

Beneath this calmness, Jeming sensed something even more terrifying—an aura of wanton brutality emitted by a predator at the top of the food chain finally revealing its fangs to its prey.

The surrounding space seemed to tremble slightly under this invisible aura.

"Prepare yourself, Jeming." Dionysius Spencer’s voice was no longer gentle, but carried a metallic coldness and undeniable authority, "The appetizer is over... your real ’feast’ is about to begin."

...

...

Thanks to the assembly coordinates being right beside him, Jeming did not need to rush like the other wizards.

He remembered Dionysius Spencer’s reminder before leaving and quickly withdrew from the twisted area containing space fissures.

As he stepped out of the warped boundary, dozens of agile wizards had already arrived at the outer perimeter.

They either controlled mechanical contraptions, relied on witchcraft, or quickly arrived with modified bodies.

At this moment, these people hovered in the air, looking curiously at Jeming who walked out unscathed from within.

Although curious about Jeming’s situation, no one dared to approach and ask in such a tense atmosphere.

After all, it was very clear that this mandatory task issued by the camp carried significant importance, even more so than the first mandatory task.

So regardless of what they were doing at the time, the wizards dropped everything in their hands and hurried toward the location upon receiving the task.

With a careful glance at Jeming, the wizards suppressed their surprise, quietly adjusted their own state, and joined the waiting line.

Time ticked by slowly.

Brilliant streams of light continuously swept across the sky, just like a swarm of returning bees.

The silhouettes of wizards multiplied, controlling various mounts, golems, and even domesticated Otherworld creatures.

They dispersed following an invisible mutual understanding, forming layer upon layer of defense around the unstable spatial distortion area.

Soon, the formerly desolate area became densely packed with wizards and their followers, each emitting a unique aura, quietly accumulating an oppressive and potent force.

Just as this silent wait was about to reach its peak...

Buzz!!!

A low but soul-stirring humming sound echoed from above the sky.

The entire firmament seemed like a curtain being stirred by an invisible giant hand, with the atmosphere presenting spiraling distortions, and clouds being torn and swirled by violent energies.

Under the watchful eyes of countless wizards, the grand Floating City, which served as the core base of the Expeditionary Army, slowly emerged from the center of the spiraling energy vortex!

A vast shadow cast down, covering a large area as if a deity had descended upon the mortal realm.

Feeling the turbulent energy currents around and the visibly unstable spatial lines, Jeming was somewhat astonished.

He hadn’t expected that Dionysius Spencer would actually teleport the entire Floating City over directly!

The most crucial part being, teleporting such a massive object hadn’t caused any greater commotion.

It seems that this Dionysius Spencer, besides mastering Destiny Element knowledge, also had considerable insight into Space Element knowledge.

Just as Jeming was deep in thought, Dionysius Spencer’s figure silently appeared at the pinnacle of the tallest tower in the Floating City.

He overlooked the wizard legion below, much like a swarm of ants, with calm and unruffled eyes.

"It seems many have arrived already, so I will cut to the chase..."

His voice wasn’t loud, but it was clear in every wizard’s ear, carrying an indisputable authority, "In the core area of this space distortion, there is a ’rift’ connecting to another Plane."

This statement immediately stirred all the wizards present, but under the pressure of the Seventh Level Wizard, the turmoil quickly subsided.

Dionysius Spencer paid no mind to the wizards’ reactions below: "I assume some among you have already speculated, yes! Next, we are going to invade another world!"

Even though many wizards had already deduced some clues from Dionysius Spencer’s stance toward this Plane, when this Seventh Level Wizard confirmed it and explicitly pointed to ’another world,’ an uncontrollable fervor erupted from the wizard group!

Heavy breathing surged together, and pairs of eyes shone with a near-substantial glow of greed.

Conquest, plunder, knowledge, power...

A completely new and unknown world signifies enormous resource potential!

The Aerial Plane had already allowed the present wizards to reap bountiful rewards, but it didn’t mean their greed was satiated.

On the contrary, the harvest from the Aerial Plane had only magnified their covetous desires!

Above the entire wizard legion, it seemed to gather an invisible yet immensely heavy will—belonging to the Wizard Civilization, a colossal lust to devour, analyze, and possess the entire world!

This terrifying collective will even forced some lesser-souled Soul Slaves and Biochemical Beasts to crawl on the ground, trembling without daring to look up.

Dionysius Spencer remained indifferent to the passionate scene below, slowly raising his hand.

The bottom of the Floating City lit up with a complex and mesmerizing giant array, with runes flowing and combining like living creatures.

A vast beam of pure energy with an immeasurable diameter silently impacted the space distortion area below.

No expected explosive detonation occurred, the violent spatial turbulence, under this precise energy strike, smoothed out like wrinkles being ironed, dissipating rapidly and inexplicably calmly.

Within a few short breaths, the daunting twisted zone had vanished, revealing its most core truth—a massive space rift spanning hundreds of meters in mid-air, its edges flickering with unstable dim light!

The rift’s interior was filled with dazzling shadows, faintly transmitting completely different energy auras from the opposite side.

However, this rift was obviously still unstable at this moment, not suitable for Plane teleportation.

"According to my observations, in about three standard days, the energy intensity of this rift will peak, and its structure will become most stable." Dionysius Spencer’s voice resounded again, silencing all chaos, "That will be our optimal timing to step into the new world."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the field, and issued new orders:

"So prepare yourselves, after this, your task is to break through the defenses opposite and hold the line!"

"Before the camp fully stabilizes the space rift, ensure its stability at all costs, absolutely preventing the natives on the other side from closing it! This is also a mandatory task!"

Orders given, there was no need for further mobilization.

All the wizards, regardless of their levels, had flames of combat and desire burning in their eyes.

The Alchemy Workshops were swiftly unfolded, Defense Towers rose from the ground like mushrooms after rain, Guardian Barriers layered one upon the other, various War Golems and Biochemical Beasts were organized and deployed around the rift...

An efficient, ruthless wizard legion born for conquest constructed an iron-clad army at the door of this Otherworld at an unprecedented speed.
