The Dark Wizard Tower was just using him and the promised reward was being delayed again and again .
"Alright, I don't have much time . You can leave now since the procedure is completed . " Thomas did not wait for Angele to response, he just turned around and returned to the church .
Angele's brow furrowed, he noticed that Thomas was acting like he did not care .
Angele did acquire some resources from the Dark Wizard Tower and he barely did anything for the organization so he was not concerned .
'I should collect the resources and prepare for the summoning ritual…' Angele turned around and walked to the city gate with the lion man .
The alliance of the wizard world was fighting against the army of the Dark Wizard Tower at the Molten Core River . There were millions of soldiers on the battlefield .
If he could set up the altar by the battlefield, he would be able to summon the lords without any problem .
**********************
Several days later, noon .
In front of a small town by the edge of the Molten River area .
Angele looked at the terrifying scene in the town with a serious expression on the face . His body was translucent, it seemed like he activated a stealth technique .
The puppet knight of the Dark Wizard Tower was slaughtering the mortals of the town . People were screaming and there was blood everywhere .
A dark knight picked up a baby that was about one month old; the baby was struggling and crying .
"I love the skin of babies, it has a soft and refreshing taste . " He said and grabbed the baby's chest, pulling slightly .
*CHI*
A part of the baby's chest was pulled and thrown into the dark knight's mouth .
The dark knights had the bodies of zombies and their mouths were full of sharp teeth . They were riding tall horses, but their arms were so long that they could easily reach the ground using hands .
The dark knights looked liked like a race with long arms and they could easily grab the items from the ground .
The dark knight chewed the baby's flesh, sharing the meat with the other dark knights .
The other dark knights were chasing the residents like chasing pigs . Some darks knights skewed the mortals and just let them bleed on the ground . The scene was terrifying .
Angele's expression turned even more serious . Although he was a dark wizard, he had his own moral standards .
He deactivated the stealth technique after he saw the dark knights devouring a mortal's baby .
It was a small town, there were only two streets that were covered with dead bodies . Six dark knights were patrolling the town and each of them held a dead body in hand . They were treating the dead bodies like snacks .
Angele covered his face with a mask and slowly approached the town .
"Lives and souls are precious . You shall not kill for no reason . Every time you take a life away, the world will be one step closer to the end . " Angele stepped into the town calmly .
"Maybe I made a wrong decision…"
A knight noticed Angele's presence and watched him step into the town .
"A black robe?" The knight's brow furrowed .
He turned his head around and shouted at another dark knight, "Karl!"
The dark knight chuckled and took out a dark metal crossbow, firing an arrow at Angele .
*CHI*
Angele grabbed the arrow using his hand easily .
"Puppet Knight Legion…" Angele's hair started growing as he finished these words . The dark red hair charged to the dark knights like snakes .
The red hair quickly formed a large red web that looked like a spider web .
The hair was going after the dark knights .
*CHI CHI*
A dark knight that looked like a captain quickly dodged the hair, but the rest of the dark knights were all pierced through their chests . Seconds later, their souls were removed and absorbed by the hair .
The captain drew his sword with a serious expression on the face . He started cutting the red hair, his movements so fast that no hair could touch his body .
He suddenly started laughing after he saw all other dark knights were killed .
"You're dead… The deputy commander of my legion is in this area . You should've just walked away!" The captain sounded a bit crazy, he was trying his best to block the hair .
Angele looked at the last dark knight but did not say anything .
In Angele's opinion, killing could be a way to reach his goal . He could release the insects in a random realm or eliminate his lab subjects without feeling anything; however, killing for fun was different . The dark knights were not treating the lives of the mortals seriously and he did not like that .
"Lives and souls . They're the history and the future of this world . There must be a reason why I'm still alive and it's the same for those mortals . They shall not be killed for fun," Angele muttered as the dark knight was still trying to fight back .
"What the hell are you talking about?! You're a dark wizard and I'm sure you've done something worse than what I just did," the dark knight sneered . "All the creatures I know fear wizards like you more . "
"You don't understand . It's not about evil or justice, it's about the meaning of life . " Angele smiled . "You don't understand the meaning of life and I don't like that so I'll kill you . "
"Only living beings that respect lives can understand the meaning of life . " Angele suddenly thought about his father, his child, and the old dragon he met, they all passed away .
"You'll respect the life if you know how precious it is…" he kept muttering .
Angele narrowed his eyes and the dark knight suddenly hesitated for a second . He stopped moving .
*CHI CHI CHI*
The red hair penetrated the dark knight's body like countless needles .
"No!" the knight shouted, he grabbed the long hair and tried to pull it out of his body .
However, there was nothing he could do . The dark knight turned into a burnt corpse and a soul was pulled out of his body . The hair absorbed the soul quickly .
Angele checked the town . Most of the residents were slaughtered by the dark knights, and he only saved several children and women . However, their eyes looked soulless .
"Death Aura of the dark knights… They'll die sooner or later…" Angele checked the survivors and shook his head . Those people were rotting from the inside .
There was nothing Angele could do . It was the same as turning a skeleton into a live human being .
Angele covered his face with the robe and disappeared into a ball of flame .
In the next several days, Angele encountered many similar events . The legions of the Dark Wizard Tower were just slaughtering and torturing the mortals .
Angele tried to control the situation, however, the scale was getting larger and larger . Also, the soldiers he met were also much stronger than the dark knights . He could not win the fights against the commanders without his true power . However, the Nightmare Realm was not connected to the wizard world yet .
He was walking the path of the ancient wizards and he had already given up the advanced meditation technique . Angele needed to prepare the altars and summon the lords so the Nightmare Realm would move to the wizard world faster .
Dark Wizard Tower transferred his ring to another wizard; also, Angele decided to help Vivian even if he had to become an enemy of the Dark Wizard Tower .
Angele was heading to the battlefield because he wanted to observe the situation before the war started .
If the Dark Wizard Tower could solve the problem from the Shadow Realm, they could easily kill Angele and eliminate the Elemental Hand .
Vivian was an elder of Elemental Hand and she would have to face the Dark Wizard Tower .
Angele would rather have the lords conquer the world since they had an agreement and this was the best option he had . He thought that the situation could not get any worse .
****************************
The Elemental Hand .
In the spacious meeting hall of the elder council .
"I still can't find Green . " Vivian sat by the table with both hands on the wooden surface . She looked tired .
"Don't worry, Vivian . " The Fifth Elder was trying to calm him down .
"Did you get in touch with the captains? How many soldiers are left?" the First Elder questioned in a deep tone .
"Well, three captains responded and 80 percent of the elite army was eliminated…" the Second Elder responded, his face pale .
The atmosphere in the hall was heavy and the place remained silent for a while .
"Gather all the soldiers we have . We need to join the final battle at the Molten River area," First Elder ordered .
"What about the Legacy Magic Circle…"
The First Elder pointed at the table .
A white map appeared in the air and the areas on the map were marked in green or red .
"The red areas are controlled by the enemy and the green areas are still in our hands . Take a look . "
The other four elders looked at the map . Most of the areas were marked in red and there was barely any green area left .
"Without the magic circle, we…" A bitter smile appeared on Fourth Elder's face .
The major organizations all set up their Legacy Magic Circles in their own territories and the elders would be weakened if they left their territory .
The First Elder sighed and replied, "The Fairy Realm is too strong for us and it's a war we can't win . "
Vivian inhaled deeply .
"Green left me a message, but…"
"Calm down… Green is a rank 3 wizard and…" The First Elder remained calm . "This is a critical period for us, you need to stay focused, Vivian!"
