Anchura sneered and glanced at the wizards again; his sight fell upon an old man with a cold expression on the face.
"It's you!" Anchura's voice was a bit shaky, he released a strong energy wave and it seemed like he was trying to attack the old man.
*BAM*
The old man remained calm, he created a shadow of a purple leopard, blocking the energy wave.
The left-over energy wave was spreading to other wizards.
The other wizards' expressions changed, they knew how strong the energy wave was.
"Calm down, young man. There's no point to do this here," the old man spoke in a deep tone, but the voice sounded like it was that of a little girl.
Anchura stared at the old man. "You robbed my merchants and took my Life Grass… I didn't expect to meet you here. Who're you anyway!"
The old man lowered his head and did not respond. It seemed like Anchura feared the old man, he calmed down and sat down.
Angele checked the left-over energy wave in the air and his expression changed.
'Such a strong energy wave…'
Justin noticed what Angele was thinking and explained, "They're the strongest wizards here, Fiona the Shadow Hand, Anchura the Barbarian, and the old man. I don't know anything about the old man, but the shadow leopard easily blocked a top-level rank 4 wizard's energy wave."
Angele nodded. "You're right, the energy waves the three wizards released were extremely strong; if they actually cast spells, they could easily change the outcome of a small battle, and with their final trump cards…"
"It's normal. Anchura is one of the strongest barbarians, famous for what he did during the Giant War around 300 years ago. Fiona eliminated the strong beings of other realms multiple times and was awarded the Purple Badge by the three lords. Also, she was the only one with the title Chaos Slayer in the area." Justin was familiar with the situation and kept explaining.
"I've heard about the Purple Badge—only people who contributed the most in wars will be awarded the badge, but Chaos Slayer… Did she eliminate the creatures from the Chaos Realm?"
"No, the creature she eliminated was not from the Chaos Realm but the Confusion Realm. I heard that the creature teleported to the wizard world by accident and already slaughtered a whole empire in the west when we received the information." Justin lowered his voice.
Angele nodded, he learned about the situation through the books, but it seemed like Justin knew more about the details.
Angele had a general idea about Anchura and the old man's power level after checking the energy waves they released. They had similar power level as Viss, they were strong rank 4 wizards.
The situation was the same for Angele if he did not use his final trump cards. However, he was not sure how strong Fiona was, but she was at least at the same level as Anchura and the old man.
Angele was a bit anxious when there were three people that had the similar power level as him in the team.
He separated the rank 4 wizards into 4 categories using the information he collected.
The mid-level rank 4 wizards were normal wizards who reached rank 4 after practicing for hundreds of years.
The high-level rank 4 wizards were wizards like Viss.
The top-level rank 4 wizards were wizards like Anchura, Fiona, and Angele. Also, the rank 4 wizards with strong Legacy Magic Circles were also top-level rank 4 wizards, like Vivian.
The strangest rank 4 wizards were wizards like Becky, her strongest ability could deal over 7000 degrees of damage. If Angele did not have the strong illusion ability and Becky was too angry during the fight, Angele might lose the battle since he had no way to handle such strong damage.
Angele turned Becky into his inheritor because he wanted to learn more about her power and her concept gear.
Several minutes later, two more people arrived at the platform and there was a total of 21 rank 4 wizards here. Most of them were mid-level rank 4 wizards and were much stronger than the wizards who were below rank 4.
The old man by the edge stood up after he counted the numbers. "Alright, I'll activate the portal since we're all here, what do you think?"
No one said anything. The old man nodded and raised his right hand, pressing down. It seemed like he pressed on something invisible and the object made some loud noise.
A golden rune circle appeared on the platform; there were countless lines in the complicated rune circle. The light released by the rune circle was eye-blinding.
The old man shouted; his feet turned into black tree roots and rooted on the golden rune circle.
*BAM*
After the noise, the whole platform was covered with golden light and Angele could not see anything.
He grabbed Becky and stayed away from the others. The only thing in his sight was the golden light and the noise that sounded like a strong wind blowing.
The feeling was similar to the feeling he had when he was teleported to the Soul River Realm.
After about ten seconds, the golden light disappeared from his sight.
There was a large black cave in front of him. He could see the red light dots that looked like tiny red eyes flashing in the cave.
Angele and the other wizards stood in a well and the white light coming from the top surrounded them.
He was at the edge of the light since he kept a distance from the other wizards.
"Watch out!"
Justin's voice suddenly came from the left, Angele noticed that his body was brushed over by some chilling wind and it seemed like something was charging to him.
"Becky!"
*BAM*
Becky suddenly appeared in front of Angele and blocked the attack, but she was blown away by a strong force.
*BAM*
Becky hit the wall of the cave and blood was spurting out of her mouth. Her left arm was twisted at a strange angle.
The chilling wind approached Angele's back again.
Becky's body disappeared from the wall and blocked the attack for Angele again.
*CHI*
Her stomach was penetrated by an invisible claw and she grabbed the claw tight.
"Great!" Angele pointed at Becky and released two balls of flames. The fireballs turned into two lion men and jumped to the area in front of Becky.
The sharp claws of the lion men grabbed the invisible creature that attacked them and started pulling at it hard.
*BAM*
After the noise, the two lion men with the same power level as rank 3 wizards were blown away by the creature. The creature pulled its claw out of Becky's body and disappeared into the air.
Angele's brow furrowed; he looked at the other wizards—they were all attacked by several invisible creatures and he saw another creature disappearing into the air.
None of the wizards was injured, they were just surprised.
"Green, are you alright? How's your servant?" Justin walked to Angele and asked, he was holding a red crystal wand in hand.
"I'm alright and my servant can recover from the injury fast." Angele shook his head. "I think I've seen the creature somewhere…"
Anchura snorted and stepped forward. A red eye appeared between his eyebrows and released a ray of red light, brightening up the area.
Under the red light, one of the invisible beasts suddenly groaned; its voice sounded like it was from a cat.
A piece of flesh that was covered with blood dropped to the ground and melted like a candle. The flesh turned into a small pool of blood within seconds.
"The Blood Throne! This is the Blood Throne!" a wizard shouted. "Those are the invisible blood beasts!"
"The Dark Wizard Tower is planning something big. They are trying to summon the Blood Lord through the Blood Throne."
"Damn, this is a dimension fissure. Now we're in trouble!"
The wizards' expressions changed.
"Calm down!" Fiona stepped forward with the leather book still in hand. The black robe she wore was quite revealing. "It's just the Blood Throne, not the Blood Lord. Blood Lord was the strongest ancient wizard and I doubt he is as powerful as in the ancient times."
The old man that fought with Anchura also stepped forward. "The Dark Wizard Tower hasn't taken over the Blood Throne yet, since we entered the fissure with no problems. We'll defeat the wizards from the Dark Wizard Tower and seal this dimension fissure before it's too late."
"Master Simon is correct." Fiona nodded. "Follow me, everyone. I can sense the remaining dimension wave here. It's left by the members of the Dark Wizard Tower."
She left the light first and walked to the deep cave.
Anchura and Simon followed after Fiona. The rest of the wizards started moving as well.
"Anyway, we should just follow Fiona for now," Justin told Angele in a low voice. "Let's go."
Angele nodded and glanced at Becky.
The wound on Becky's stomach already recovered. Her face was no longer pale and she was trying to fix her arm.
*Crack*
Becky stood up and glared at Angele after the noise.
"Let's go."
Angele smiled. "Thanks for the help, I'm counting on the defensive power of your concept gear." He sent the words using energy particles.
Becky sneered. "And the strong recovery ability of your bloodline, right?"
"You're an inheritor of my bloodline, you should take the hit for me." Angele patted Becky's shoulder and started advancing.
