Looking at the heavily guarded front, Natalie frowned and said, "This is going to be tough. There are at least a thousand knights here, and there are quite a few Wizard Apprentices inside. It seems difficult to eliminate them quickly and prevent any news from getting out."
"Well, we have to find a way. If we can delay them for a while, that's good enough. As long as they can't get the message out, reaching the surface will be our victory. I don't believe he would dare to come after us," Albert said, stroking his beard.
Mary, however, was not interested in this. She enjoyed fighting strong opponents but did not like slaughtering the weak. Although there were many guards, with her abilities, she could easily wipe them all out; it was just a matter of time. She wasn't interested in dealing with them.
Daniel also knew that preventing the news from spreading would be somewhat difficult, but no matter how hard it was, they had to proceed.
He looked back and helplessly realized that he had become the main force in this battle. There was no choice; although Albert was proficient in Alchemy and few could surpass him during his time as a Wizard Apprentice across the Wizarding Continent, he was not skilled in combat.
The group of Alchemists he had gathered were the same. Even though each one was a Third-Level Wizard Apprentice with plenty of Magical Items and wealth, when it came to combat power, they might not even compare to Second-Level Apprentices. They had long dedicated their lives to Alchemy and had little time to learn combat skills.
Moreover, given their prestige, if there was ever a need for battle, they could easily call upon four or five Third-Level Apprentices along with a large number of Second-Level Apprentices; they wouldn't worry about fighting.
However, now for the sake of secrecy, there wasn't a single person under him available for this task, which was tragic. Fortunately, there was still the Fire Elemental Clan to serve as cannon fodder.
As night fell and the soldiers in the camp began to rest and fall into a deep sleep, a group rushed out from their hiding spot under Daniel's lead towards the camp.
Initially, Daniel had planned to use stealth magic to advance quietly and launch a surprise attack once they reached the edge of the camp.
Unexpectedly, just a few hundred meters away from the camp, one of the Element Pool's feet triggered some kind of trap, resulting in a loud noise as flames erupted. Although Daniel quickly extinguished it, the message had already been sent out.
Daniel could only shout loudly, "Charge with me!"
Daniel charged forward.
The entire camp only reacted when Daniel reached the edge, turning into a chaotic mess. Some knights rushed out barefoot to confront the enemy, some were still getting dressed inside, and others were searching for their armor, all in a state of panic.
Although guarding the Passage was very important, there was usually not much going on. After all, no fool would come down to cause trouble for them, unless they were provoking the Wizard Tower behind them.
It had been over a hundred years since they encountered such a direct assault on the camp; who would have thought someone would dare to attack?
Seeing this, Daniel immediately began throwing fireballs. The fireballs danced through the air like a twisting fire dragon, overwhelming the entire camp with no ability to resist.
Originally, Professor's Barrage Fireball had a fast firing speed, but it couldn't be this rapid, one after another without pause.
However, Daniel was currently standing by the Fire Element Pool, which enhanced his abilities, allowing him to double the speed of his barrage of fireballs.
Moreover, their power also increased; Professor's Barrage Fireball sacrificed power for speed, resulting in only 0.00 points of power.
Although this was strong compared to other wizards and above the average level of a Third-Level Apprentice, it was still limited. True strong individuals wouldn't take the barrage seriously.
Now, with the enhancement from the Fire Element Pool, the power had exceeded 40 degrees. Though it seemed like just an increase of over 40 degrees, it wasn't that simple; it nearly reached the level of a Third-Level Elite Apprentice. With such numbers, it could pose a threat to top apprentices.
A few Wizard Apprentices assigned to guard the Passage had just rushed out and hadn't even had time to react before being turned to charcoal by the fireballs.
A Third-Level Apprentice emerged from a tent with a protective shield. In the blink of an eye, he saw that more than half of the thousands of knights in the camp had been killed or injured, and nearly ten Wizard Apprentices had also perished. He realized they were utterly powerless to resist.
Unable to contain his anger, he shouted, "Who are you? Don't you know this Passage belongs to the Antia Empire? Aren't you afraid of retribution from a Formal Wizard?"
Unfortunately, as soon as he finished shouting, Daniel redirected his aim. Dozens of fireballs struck him in an instant; his shield blocked only a few before being shattered.
With his death came an inexplicable wave that emanated from where he fell.
Daniel immediately realized that the news of their attack on the camp had been leaked, and he could only sigh. He also understood that it was unrealistic to completely seal off information about such a large camp.
After breaching the camp, a group of people hurriedly climbed upward through the Passage without taking a moment to rest.
The eight spider legs of the Fire Element Pool moved swiftly and soon reached the ground.
At that moment, a powerful wave of magical energy surged from below, startling everyone. Even if they all united, they could not produce such a strong magical fluctuation.
It was none other than Lord Boris of the Antia Empire who was rushing over. Before they could think of a way to respond, Boris had already burst up from the Underworld, his eyes bloodshot as he gazed at the Fire Element Pool before him.
When he saw the Fire Elemental Clan, he immediately understood what was going on. He had possessed the Lava Secret Realm for over 300 years but had never imagined that there would be a natural Fire Element Pool there. This was a fortune worth over 100,000 Magic Stones.
He knew that his Wizard Tower was still under construction and that he needed far too many resources.
To build a proper Wizard Tower, how many Element Pools were required?
Four Element Pools: Elemental Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, plus the distinction between positive and negative energy pools—that made eight Element Pools in total.
Just these eight Element Pools would cost nearly one million Magic Stones. Not to mention other construction materials; even a Formal Wizard would find it daunting.
However, spending such a significant amount was worth it. A Wizard Tower not only guaranteed a wizard's strength but also allowed him to stand firm against dozens of wizards of equal rank attacking him.
It could also accelerate his training speed, enabling him to become a Second-Level Wizard more quickly.
Now his Wizard Tower was lacking a Fire Element Pool, and yet a bunch of damned individuals had secretly taken it away. This not only stole his wealth but also robbed him of the source of his progress. How could he not be furious?
Noticing his anger, the group turned pale with fear and nearly lost their footing. They could hardly imagine how to face a Formal Wizard; even if he stood still while they attacked him, they wouldn't be able to harm him in the slightest.
Especially for the Fire Elemental Clan, who had just betrayed Boris; once he caught them again, they could easily foresee what kind of fate awaited them.
Several Fire Elementals fainted from the overwhelming pressure he exerted.
“Damn thieves, I will make you pay.”
As he spoke, a black sphere appeared in Boris's hand, resembling a black hole, absorbing the surrounding light. The intense energy fluctuations filled everyone with despair; it was something that a Wizard Apprentice could not withstand.
If it fell, they would all die. At this critical moment, Daniel smiled lightly and flew towards Boris.
Like a moth to a flame.
No one knew what the two were discussing, but Boris grabbed Daniel and left the spot, flying into the distance.
He simultaneously ordered them to return the Fire Element Pool to the underground, back to his Wizard Tower.
Reirfu and the others discussed among themselves, but they could only comply with his orders, their faces filled with worry.
Who knew what Boris had done to them? It was impossible to escape with the Element Pool from under his control.
