Wizard Hume reconnected to the teleportation circle, and he immediately sensed a vicious battle as soon as he arrived at the resource point.
However, he soon let out a breath of relief. There were 6 white soul beams, which meant 6 elite rank professionals had died, and they were all holy knights. The Lightning clan was doing fine.
The operation was quick. There was no way the wizard union could make a move on 15 resource points at once if Abel had not revived so many law-defying wizards.
As for elite wizards, the wizard union could move a lot of them at once since they did not need to retreat for a long time like law-defying wizards.
"Wizard Charlie, the Lightning clan really are the quickest!" Wizard Hume smiled and said.
"Wizard Hume, how are the other 14 resource points? Wizard Charlie asked.
"Yeah, they are still battling!" Wizard Hume nodded.
His gaze turned to the castle. He saw the wizards taking their rewards from the dead bodies, and a few elite wizards began to set up a new protection circle.
"Wizard Charlie, I will organise some men here to take over and calculate your accomplishments. If you are willing, you can exchange credit resource points with the light stones!" Wizard Hume continued to smile.
"I'm sorry Wizard Hume, but we already decided to give those Light gems to Grandmaster Abel. If he didn't give us the potions, we wouldn't have been able to do this!" Wizard Charlie explained.
"Haha, I think Grandmaster Bennett will love your gift!" Wizard Hume would do the same.
He knew very well about the trades of the WIzard Union.
Wizard Hume connected them to the Howling Castle, and a team of elite wizards arrived through the teleportation circle to take over.
"Wizard Hume, since our mission is finished, do you want us to support the other teams?" Wizard Charlie wouldn't miss a chance to get easy resources like this.
Although they had the least amount of law-defying wizards, he was still worried if the longevity potion the Wizard Union would give out was enough for all 16 law-defying wizards in their team to distribute.
If they helped the others, they might be able to get more.
Of course, this was also because they still had some mana potions and power potions to ensure their safety.
"Wizard Charlie, you still have to guard this area for some time. The wizard union made sure that each team had more than enough power to take down the knights. If you want more rewards, just wait for the next mission!" Wizard Hume was still smiling.
Wizard Charlie nodded helplessly. It made sense since too many law defying wizards were sent out. The Lightning clan was the fastest, but they were not the most powerful.
"Wizard Charlie. I'll leave you here now. I still have 2 more resource points to check!" Wizard Hume bowed and left.
After another hour, all 15 battles were finished.
The Holy Kingdom immediately sent out support, but with so many powerful wizards attacking 15 resource points at once, their teleportation circle was broken before those holy knights even arrived.
The Holy Kingdom was completely caught off guard. The wizard union had broken their long years of power balance and unleashed an all-out war.
The Saint of the Holy Kingdom palace's face sank as he continued to read reports.
"What? All 15 resource points are gone?" The saint yelled. He was stunned.
The scale was catastrophic.
The inventory of the Holy Kingdom had already taken a hit ever since they lost the holy portal bag, and now it was reaching a critical state.
"Mr Saint. We sent out support to 12 resource points but they were quickly killed as well. As for the other 3, we were disconnected before we could even react!" A mad knight bowed.
Since the Holy Kingdom had been battling in the front line for thousands of years, they had a polished system of making sure they had enough support to distribute around.
However, it was because of this, they had underestimated the power of wizards.
On top of that, the spying network the Holy Kingdom always prided themselves on also failed to alert them.
"The WIzard Union is planning for a full take over in the front line and their target is..." the saint's face suddenly turned pale.
He turned to the map of the front line on the war, which they spend countless years of effort to sketch out.
He pinpointed the 15 resource points he lost on the map and thought about the strange behavior of the guardian wings earlier.
He knew the strange behavior of the Guardian Wings meant his god was about to reawaken. This, at least made up for the decrease in faith and the sudden rise in chaos in the kingdom.
However, the wizard union attacked right after guardian wings moved. It was hard to miss the connection between them.
"The wizard union no longer wants to lose in the front line?" He thought to himself.
"Give up all the small resource resource points immediately and guard up these 10 resource points with all mad knights!" The saint pointed at the map and said and pointed at the map.
The Holy Kingdom still had 30 remaining resource points, but the 10 they wanted to guard were all 2 miles from the Holy Kingdom.
Although the knights couldn't understand why the saint decided to make such a big decision and give up 20 resource points at once, they still wouldn't disobey.
"Yes Mr Saint!" The mad knights bowed.
Soon, the saint was left alone in the temple, once again looking at the map.
Meanwhile, Wizard Charlie received another mission.
"Gather. We are about to fight again!" He yelled.
Abel's potion really came in handy. Unless his wizards were killed in one strike, they would be able to recover to top conditions regardless of their injuries.
200 wizards, 10 archpriests, and a group of Barbarians disappeared from the castle in a flash and appeared in front of the Lightning clan.
Their target was a little resource point 20 miles from them. Since the Holy Kingdom was already aware of their moves, the following battles might be much more violent.
Taking over a little resource point with 2 mad knights was initially an easy task, but it would be a different story if the Holy Kingdom was alerted and sent out their support.
Although penetrating the castle moments ago looked simple, there was no way those law-defying wizards could do so if the 200 elite wizards and the 10 priests did not counteract the close body attacks of the knights.
Wizards were not the best in defense. Once their shield was broken, even normal holy knights would be able to injure them.
Wizard Charlie looked around. He wondered, how many wizards would be able to come out alive in the following battles.
20 miles were nothing for wizards who knew how to move in a flash. Soon, they saw a castle on a mountain appearing in front of them
The law-defying wizards exchanged gaze. Taking down the protective shield of a castle of that size would take at least 3 rounds of lightning attack.
They didn't want the elite wizards to sacrifice their lives for no reason. Elite wizards could not withstand the energy of a mad knight, so they would in fact be a drag to the law-defying wizards.
"Let's do this the old way!" Wizard Charlie lowered his voice.
The priest summoned their summons once again as the Barbarians enchanted the abilities of the team with their roar.
Wizard Charlie and the other 15 law-defying wizards flashed again and arrived in front of the castle, but they quickly came to a halt.
There was no protection shield.
In fact, there wasn't even any defense.
There were zero knights, just an empty castle.
"Go in!" WIzard Charlie lowered his voice.
He appeared in the courtyard in a flash and saw some leftover goodies.
Seemed like the knights had abruptly retreated.
"You guys can come in as well!" He said to the elite wizards outside.
The wizards and the priest flashed in as well. The priest unleashed their skeletons and let them roam around.
Skeletons had a special ability to detect enemies, and there were no holy knights around.
"Report to the Howling castle!" Wizard Charlie commanded.
They wouldn't get many rewards in situations like this.
