Wizard: Stronger through Marriage

Chapter 921 - 416: The Sixth-Ring Mage Who Delivered Himself

On the vast coastline of the Chaos Realm, the newly appointed Six-Ring Grand Mage of the Endless Sea, Salos, stood at the bow of a giant ship driven by magic, his eyes deep like the abyss, gleaming with a desire for power and a light of conquest over the unknown.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty and moist aroma, blew against his silver-white long hair, and his robes flapped in the wind, as if foretelling the coming of a storm.

Behind Salos stood the elite forces of the Endless Sea Wizard Alliance, composed of wizards from various sea races, human race, and a few other races, each with faces full of determination and sternness.

Surrounding the giant ship were countless smaller warships, clustered around like swarms of bees, forming a formidable sea power.

"The Chaos Realm, this emerging land, its resources and potential, will belong to the Endless Sea!" Salos’s voice was low and powerful, amplified through magic, resonating throughout the fleet.

His words were filled with confidence and undeniable authority, as if he had already glimpsed the dawn of victory.

At his command, the fleet slowly advanced, with each wizard onboard beginning to chant spells, preparing to cast various attack and defense magic.

The surface of the sea shimmered with magical light, creating a dazzling yet dangerous spectacle.

Salos’s gaze pierced through the layers of magical light, landing on the defensive line of the Chaos Realm.

He could see that it was already on high alert, with various fortifications and magic arrays interwoven into a complex network, displaying the Chaos Realm’s full preparation for this invasion.

"Hmph, just the futile struggle of ants," Salos sneered, dismissive of the Chaos Realm’s defenses.

In his eyes, the power of the Six-Ring Mage was enough to crush anything, especially with the backing of the entire Endless Sea Wizard Alliance.

However, just as he was about to order a full-scale attack, a faint wave caught his attention.

It was a magical fluctuation from afar, weak yet extraordinarily pure and powerful, causing him to furrow his brows unconsciously.

"Is that... the aura of Tier Six Witchcraft?"

Salos was startled; he hadn’t anticipated such a formidable presence hidden within the Chaos Realm.

This discovery forced him to reassess the current situation.

"It seems that the Six-Ring Grand Mage named David has returned. This battle will not be as easy as I imagined," Salos contemplated silently, quickening his pace in devising strategies.

Faced with the threat of a Six-Ring Mage, any underestimation could lead to catastrophic consequences.

Under Salos’s leadership, the wizard fleet of the Endless Sea temporarily halted its advance, with the entire fleet shrouded in an atmosphere of tension and gravity.

Salos and other senior wizards began urgent discussions on strategy, attempting to find a way to seize the resources of the Chaos Realm without direct confrontation with the opposing Six-Ring Mage.

A few senior wizards sat around a massive magic map, marked with various dots and lines depicting the defensive layout of the Chaos Realm and the current position of the Endless Sea fleet.

"We cannot confront that Six-Ring Mage head-on," a weathered sea race wizard spoke first, his voice carrying a hint of concern, "The power of a Six-Ring Mage isn’t easily opposed, especially on their home ground."

Another human wizard nodded in agreement, "Indeed, we need to outsmart them. Perhaps we can attempt to exploit weaknesses in the realm or use diplomatic means to divide their alliance."

Salos was silent for a moment, a resolute look flashing in his eyes, "Dividing the alliance takes time and might not succeed. We cannot pin our hopes on such uncertainties. As for weaknesses... though the Chaos Realm’s defense seems tight, any defense has its flaws."

He reached out and lightly tapped the magic map, causing a small island in the northeast corner of the Chaos Realm to light up, "Here marks the border between the Chaos Realm and another small wizard faction; the defense is relatively weak. We can first dispatch an elite squad to land on the island, establish a foothold, and then disassemble their defense from within."

The other wizards nodded in agreement, acknowledging that while the plan was risky, it could indeed be the key to breaking through the Chaos Realm’s defenses.

"At the same time, we need to strengthen intelligence gathering to understand the specific strengths of that Six-Ring Mage and his wizard team," Salos continued, "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Only by fully understanding the opponent can we devise more effective strategies."

Thus, the wizard fleet of the Endless Sea began to adjust its deployment, with some warships quietly approaching the northeastern island to carry out the landing plan.

Meanwhile, another part remained in place, keeping the defensive line of the Chaos Realm at bay, to hold the enemy’s attention.

On the side of the Chaos Realm, David also sensed the movement of the Endless Sea fleet. He quickly convened leaders of various races and wizard representatives to report the situation. "It seems they are plotting some conspiracy," David frowned, his gaze sweeping across the map, "We must not sit and wait; we need to take the initiative and disrupt their plans."

After a round of discussions, the Chaos Realm decided to dispatch a strike team of elites from various races to the northeastern island for reconnaissance and defense, while also reinforcing patrols and alerts in other areas to prevent the Endless Sea fleet from launching raids elsewhere.
