Chapter 1003 Goblin Machinist Sorcerer
Apart from these core adepts, a group of elite adepts had also emerged from within the Crimson Clan.
For instance, there was Dragon Devourer Oliven.
Oliven had always been a peripheral member of the Crimson Clan. She very rarely participated in clan matters, let alone adepts wars that had nothing to do with her.
However, after successfully advancing to Third Grade with Greem’s ‘investment,’ Oliven had a favor to return. As such, she had no choice but to join this adept war.
As a dragon devourer, most of Oliven’s abilities were related to dragons.
Despite being a beginner Third Grade, she could unleash as much power as a peak Third Grade when fighting against dragons. Even if she was facing a Fourth Grade dragon, she could retreat without a scratch on herself.
It was the powerful profession ability of a dragon devourer!
That was a powerful existence that could ‘instantly’ kill any one of them. As such, Iritina was extremely cautious and never left the golem dragon’s radius of protection.
Either way, with the dragonflight’s presence, the enemy would have to take the terror of the dragons’ attacks into consideration before they engaged in any large-scale battle. Consequently, after forcing the Crimson Clan back to their land of origin, the Fabres Clan had only launched a full-scale ground invasion a handful of times. Moreover, most of these incursions were smaller-scale ground penetration operations.
However, as time slowly passed, the Fourth Grade monster behind the Fabres Clan seemed to have gradually lost his patience. He started to pay more frequent attention to the war and intervened more often.
Cloaked in the terrifying and suffocating shadow of this Fourth Grade powerhouse, the tiny advantages that the Crimson Clan had managed to build up before this had vanished without a trace. Every day, when the clan adepts took on their missions and stepped onto the battlefield, their hearts were filled with anxiety.
The reason the Crimson Clan had yet to collapse was simply that the Fourth Grade adept still sat in the Fabres headquarters and had yet to show himself. To this day, the main forces responsible for the progression of war remained a group of Third Grade adepts.
However, once the Fourth Grade adept lost his patience and personally stepped on the battlefield, the frontline that the Crimson Clan was currently holding up would collapse in an instant. When that happened, no one knew if they could even protect the Crimson Clan’s last city, even with the magical golem dragon fighting at the very front!
Pinecone Town could not be lost!
The Crimson Clan had developed the place for so many years and had finally successfully cultivated a certain degree of resource and manpower advantage. If they lost Pinecone City, they would have nowhere to evacuate the ten to twenty thousand people living in it. The narrow, small geography of Fire Throne did not have the space to do so.
However, if the Crimson Clan were to simply abandon the citizens of Pinecone City, they would lose the clan elites and backbone members that they required to reestablish themselves, even if they managed to force the Fabres Clan somehow to retreat.
The worldly territories required smart and hardworking nobles to rule over them, and the various resource sites required diligent adepts and apprentices to manage them. Those who could remain loyal and unwavering to the clan even under such a harsh situation were the foundational stones for the clan to grow and develop in the future.
