The impact of this war continues to unfold. Due to Myles' retreat and serious injuries, he has not appeared since. The people he led fled back to Wizard Tower in disarray and no longer dare to come out.
Jennifer's group has decreased by one-third. Although they managed to escape, the cost is unbearable.
The Six Great Wizard Towers have begun recalling Wizard Apprentices who were out gathering resources, concentrating them together in preparation for Daniel's impending attack.
However, Daniel, who is already under the spotlight, has yet to take action and seems to be resting indefinitely. This only heightens concerns about a sudden attack on their side.
After a long wait of ten days, the Wizard Tower finally began to move, heading towards the distance.
Behind the Wizard Tower follows all the Wizard Apprentices he leads, nearly 7,000 people, marching slowly towards another battlefield under Daniel's command.
As soon as he started moving, dozens of waves of magic energy radiated from the surroundings, transmitting messages far away.
All enemies encountered on the road turned and left upon seeing the Wizard Tower; none dared to confront it. They continued until they reached the edge of the Paramos Empire's Wizard Tower camp.
This is also the most powerful Wizard Tower aside from the Antia Empire's Wizard Tower. Except for Apprentice Leader, who is not as strong as Franklin, everyone else is equally formidable.
Daniel initially thought there would be a battle now that they had arrived; after all, this was a gathering of a Wizard Tower with all its elites. However, what Daniel saw was a camp that had been tidied up and was rapidly evacuating.
The elites of Paramos Empire's Wizard Tower surprisingly lacked even the courage to face Daniel and fled directly.
While he felt a mix of emotions, he pressed on, chasing after all the elites of Paramos Empire's Wizard Tower until he reached Gregory Empire's Wizard Tower territory. The two major Wizard Towers combined also chose to flee without engaging in battle, leaving Daniel dumbfounded behind them.
With no other choice, he regrouped with his academy members and continued the pursuit.
Then there was the Paris Empire Wizard Tower and the Valparaiso Empire Wizard Tower. By now, the four major Wizard Towers had joined forces, with numbers approaching 15,000. However, Daniel still looked at an empty camp. They didn't even have the courage to face them.
In the end, Daniel finally saw the military camp formed by the Six Great Wizard Towers, with numbers nearing 20,000. The gathering of so many Wizard Apprentices emitted a magical wave that almost changed the color of the ground; no one felt unafraid.
At this moment, over a dozen wizard leaders from the Flame Throne Wizard Academy had also gathered together, with their number of Wizard Apprentices reaching 1,000, which was one and a half times more than theirs. They were not afraid of them.
These were not the rookies who had never seen war before; they were Elite Apprentices who had undergone rigorous training and carried a fierce aura.
Even though there was some gap compared to those battle-hardened Wizard Tower apprentices, it was not too far off.
The situation was subtly leaning towards the Flame Throne Wizard Academy, especially with the participation of other Wizard Towers.
In an instant, both sides gathered here, all the Wizard Apprentices prepared for a decisive battle.
This fight directly related to the future victories and defeats of both sides, and even affected dozens of surrounding Wizard Academies and Wizard Towers.
Because not only did Daniel find reinforcements, but other Wizard Seeds and Apprentice Leaders also brought in help from elsewhere. They were among the top Wizard Apprentices in this area. Although they couldn't directly influence their own academy's situation, it still had a significant impact.
Daniel originally thought that with the help of the Wizard Towers, victory in this battle was almost guaranteed, but it was still uncertain. However, when he looked at the floating ship parked behind the enemy camp, his brow furrowed tightly.
He didn't expect that they had also built a Wizard Tower in an emergency situation.
They just weren't as fortunate as Daniel, who found an Element Pool. Instead, they were using the original magical energy conversion device. Every operation of their Wizard Tower consumed Magic Stones.
The energy consumed by the Wizard Tower, if converted into Magic Stones, amounted to an enormous figure; even the entire academy would hesitate to expend such resources. It was indeed a decisive war, where even Magic Stones could be consumed like this.
But this also cast a question mark over the outcome of the war.
The five wizard leaders who had been facing off against Franklin approached, led by the academy's Wizard Seed, Harold. He enthusiastically called out, "Daniel, welcome! We've been waiting for you, just waiting for you to lead us to victory. The current situation is all thanks to your efforts."
"You flatter me; this is the result of our collective hard work," Daniel replied modestly, though he felt quite proud inside. If it weren't for him finding the Fire Element Pool and constructing the Wizard Tower, the best outcome for the Flame Throne Wizard Academy would have been to defend a few strategic locations.
As for the vast lands outside and hundreds of resource points, they would have been seized by the enemy, becoming their powerful supplies. It would be uncertain how much it would cost to reclaim them in the future.
Now, victory was within reach.
"What are we standing around for? Let's head into the Wizard Tower and discuss things," Daniel said with a smile upon seeing their curious expressions about the Wizard Tower.
"Sure! I never thought you could actually build a Wizard Tower," Harold replied sincerely. The Wizard Tower was no structure that a Wizard Apprentice could construct; he never expected Daniel to achieve it.
"What's so special about it? It's just luck. By the way, where's Sister Selma? Why hasn't she come over?"
Selma was the Mystic Wizard apprentice that the academy had hired at great expense to combat Franklin. If it weren't for her holding the line, the academy would have collapsed under pressure and faced total defeat long ago.
Harold's expression suddenly turned grim.
"Don't mention it. Three days ago, they launched a surprise attack. Franklin, despite being severely injured, led several strong individuals to heavily injure Selma and nearly killed her. Don't expect Selma to take action within a month."
Daniel was momentarily stunned, and everyone who heard the news had a grim expression.
Franklin was like a mountain pressing down on them. With his abilities, he might not be able to contend with Wizard Tower, but in a fight, there was no one present who could match him, not even if six or seven people teamed up against him.
If they were to sneak attack without regard for their reputation, this group of people would not be able to spare any effort to deal with other powerful opponents. This would create a disadvantageous situation where their side lacked high-end combat power, severely affecting the course of the war.
Now, the only person who could hold him back had been injured and could not appear, leaving them at a loss about what to do.
“Hahaha, it’s just Franklin. Can he really deal with Wizard Tower? Don’t worry, I’ll go meet him shortly.”
Daniel said with a smile, but everyone still felt as if they were being crushed by a mountain. No one agreed with Daniel's plan, and they were not proactive even in discussing how to face the battle.
For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat cold.
Daniel realized that without leading them to victory, they would never escape from Franklin's shadow.
He had no choice but to agree to let Wizard Tower take action tomorrow; only with Wizard Tower could they gain the confidence needed for victory.
