Chapter 896 Doverand Basin
Alice might have beaten Morgana, but in the end, it was a narrow victory!
Morgana had lost the reputation of the Coldwinter Witches and one-third of the clan’s resource sites, while Alice lost all the Fate power she had so painstakingly accumulated over the years.
It was important to note that this was the capital that Alice had only managed to accumulate after participating in three planar wars!
Still, the Fate Witches had obtained a massive opportunity due to this war. Their overall strength was now skyrocketing.
At the moment, there were as many as seven Fate Witches in the Tower of Fate. Though it was not yet at the level before their invasion into Faen, the average quality of the witches was higher.
Moreover, with the gradual increase of their territory, the Fate Witches were receiving more and more apprentice seeds from all over the land. The seven Fate Witches ran all over their territory, day and night, selecting talented individuals from amongst these apprentice seeds and taking them back to the Tower of Fate.
Those with inferior talent were then placed in nearby resource sites for study and further training.
The Scalding Rays were like the eyes of the reaper, bringing death with them wherever they went. One beast after another howled and collapsed to the ground where the red lights crossed, with bloody holes shot into their bodies.
When the more robust magical creatures took to the frontlines to shield the others with their magic-resistant bodies, the Crimson adepts behind the walls would drown them with ferocious magic.
Testing the might of human adepts with crude skin and flesh was an unfair test to begin with!
However, this unfair scene occurred again and again on this chaotic battlefield.
Most beasts fell during their charge. Even the occasional fortunate creature that made it to the wall would be met with a row of magical machines forged of pure metal.
Magical machines and elementium golems were powerful guards that almost every official adept within the Crimson Clan possessed. These machines were steel shields, while the elementium golems were explosive weapons. They had both become irreplaceable assistants of the Crimson adepts.
It was impossible to charge up to a Crimson adept’s side before first beating their machine and their golem!
While blood was spilled in the basin, the seven Second Grades of the Crimson Clan were calmly standing in front of the tent at the center of the fort, assessing the battle from afar.
Dragonborn Zacha, Goblin Tigule, Blood Knights Soros and Windsor, Blood Elf Isa (Mage), Lilia (Magic Archer), Spalla (Shapeshifter).
As the core fighting force of the Crimson Clan, these seven Second Grades represented Greem, the goblin faction, and the vampire faction respectively. They were already the strongest force of the Crimson Clan, excluding the few top-tier adepts of the clan.
They knew very well that these wild beasts did not qualify to assault the White Tower if they could not even break through a fort such as this. The surface reason the Crimson Clan had chosen this place to fend off the stampede was to reduce the pressure around White Tower, but in truth, it was an internal selection and elimination of the clan.
Over the past few days, many new adepts had risen to power in the Crimson Clan. The higher-ups were intending to use this stampede as a means of sifting out the elites. As such, these Second Grades were only here as the last line of defense. The ones who were truly embroiled in the deathmatch were the First Grade adepts and apprentices.
They were the true protagonists of this battle!
