Chapter 638 - 635: Divine Descent Warrior Ferudo
Amariel’s expression changed immediately upon hearing this: "How do you know?"
"Because I know about the revival of the Demon God Salajael. I also know... at the Lorich Magic Academy, there is a director named Ferudo, who is a mage practicing summoning magic. He should be related to the Demon God Salajael."
Bai Pu remembered it clearly.
Back in the day, Lorich’s two exchange students: Laine the Axeman and Amariel the Gunman, were entrusted by Director Ferudo to bring back an ancient relic: the Feather of the Demon God Salajael.
Amariel’s originally wide-open eyes quickly lost their luster, showing a dejected look: "Alright, you’re right."
"Amariel, these guests are obviously friends, here to help us. Such a big incident at Lorich can’t be concealed."
Zuzana glanced at the head on the ground. Although she didn’t recognize Clare, she knew that the tri-colored pheasant feather on his helmet was a decoration of the veteran cavalry from Pang Sai City.
"You’re right, Teacher Zuzana."
Amariel sighed.
Soon, Zuzana and Amariel recounted the recent changes at the Lorich Magic Academy to Bai Pu.
At Lorich Magic Academy, there was a great sage named Jiehui Lorich.
Great Sage Jiehui, like Academy Director Bosh Gajisen, was the director of the Lorich Magic Academy, inheriting the Lorich surname.
But a few months ago, the summoning system director, Divine Descent Warrior Ferudo, suddenly launched an attack.
Originally, Ferudo’s strength was only that of an Advanced Lord, not even comparable to the great sage.
But for some reason, Ferudo’s strength skyrocketed, and he was able to summon the Divine Power Aggregation of the Demon God Salajael! This is a presence stronger than Salajael’s Phantom, capable of utilizing a limited amount of the Demon God Salajael’s original power.
Additionally, through treachery, Great Sage Jiehui was killed on the spot.
The Secret Magic Hall of Lorich, equivalent to the War God Peak of Garrison, is a place for mages and martial artists who pursue the path of ultimate power to cultivate in seclusion.
Some people in the Secret Magic Hall betrayed and followed Ferudo. Most people insisted on resisting but were restrained of their magic power and imprisoned.
The head of Lorich Magic Academy then became Director Ferudo.
As a super mage of the summoning system—a Divine Descent Warrior, most of Ferudo’s strength came from his summoned creatures. Ferudo, who could summon the Divine Power Aggregation, was as powerful or even more so than the great sage!
In addition, some mages who followed Ferudo also received some kind of boost, making their strength extraordinarily strong, thus solidifying Ferudo’s position as the master of Lorich without question.
The changes at Lorich Magic Academy soon spread across the entire Pavir Plateau.
The cities and territories of the Pavir Plateau all looked up to the Lorich Academy.
With the change of power at Lorich Magic Academy, the highland cities and territories naturally went through a power shift.
Lords loyal to the orthodox Great Sage Jiehui and those who turned to serve under Ferudo formed two battle lines, with each side fighting against one another.
The original lord of Pang Sai City was killed, and the new lord joined Ferudo.
However, the villagers of the affiliated villages of Pang Sai City, holding onto righteousness, did not blindly follow but continued to remain loyal to the orthodox Great Sage...
"Wait a minute."
Bai Pu suddenly interrupted Amariel’s narration and said with a frown, "You say the villagers held onto righteousness, are you for real?"
Amariel seemed a bit awkward and amended his statement:
"Actually, a group of people from Lorich Academy escaped, and under Laine’s leadership, they united with lords loyal to the orthodox Great Sage to resist Ferudo... the villagers here share the same sentiment, so saying they hold onto righteousness isn’t wrong."
Bai Pu slightly curled his lips.
The resistance also needs living space and requires the affiliated villages to provide food and supplies.
This village, which was slaughtered and burned, was probably not due to any grand cause but was forced to take sides, siding with the resistance.
As a result, when the resistance forces were mobilized, losing the protection of elite forces, the Pang Sai Cavalry seized the opportunity for a village-wide massacre.
However, Bai Pu got the answer he wanted to know. Laine led the resistance; that was enough.
Laine was one of the two who initially went to the Garrison Warrior Academy for exchange with Amariel, a powerful magic warrior wielding the ancient relic "Holy Dragon’s Jaw."
At that time, Laine’s strength was of a Level 8 Enhanced Warrior, almost evenly matched in battles with Bai Pu, who had not yet advanced to advanced.
However, judging from the world fate trajectory of Demon Fighting: Battle Academy, Laine became the leader of the resistance, naturally fulfilling the world protagonist’s role, and his strength inevitably advanced significantly.
Advancing to Lord is a certainty, and further progressing to a Level 9 or Level 10 Lord is not impossible. This is the special treatment for natives, with the tilt of the World Waymark, incomparable to the Awakened ones.
Advanced Awakened ones do not simply have a "Lord Template."
Like Bai Pu, who is an Enhanced Hero Template in the mid-term, cultivating the self-created Advanced Fighting Qi Cultivation Method "Sandfall Demon Fighting Qi," rated as S-level, has only improved his priority by a level, equivalent to that of a Lord.
Other awakened individuals are worse off when advancing to advanced. In the mid-term, they have a hero template, and even in the Professional Plane, after going to great lengths to obtain an advanced cultivation method, at most, it elevates their priority to the level of an Enhanced Warrior.
The priority is comparable to that of Enhanced Warriors, but in terms of attribute growth and the abundance of Professional Energy, they are not as good as genuine Enhanced Warriors, let alone Lords.
Of course, the Awakened can traverse various worlds, learning from many sources, and their horizons are much broader than those of the natives. They also have an edge in the realm of Mystical Arts cultivation, and they can enhance their strength by constantly updating equipment and obtaining rare items.
Therefore, the combat power of top-tier Awakened individuals is stronger than that of Advanced Enhanced Warriors.
Candidates like Dai Sect can even spar briefly with Level 10 Lords. Facing Level 8 or 9 Lords, with Level Suppression, they can engage in battles on equal footing, not falling behind.
"Where is Laine?" Bai Pu directly asked.
"He went to Skalaste Peak," Amariel said.
Dai Sect suddenly spoke up: "Skalaste Peak? That’s an ancient Divine-Demon Battlefield, just like ’Naxitas’ in the Istan Desert."
Amariel glanced at Dai Sect, probably not expecting this seemingly half-giant fellow to be so knowledgeable.
Subsequently, in the temporary team channel, Dai Sect conveyed a message:
[Skalaste translates to ’pillar supporting the sky.’ This peak is located in the Land of the Far West of the Pavir Plateau and is the highest peak on the Twin Star Continent, equivalent to Earth’s Mount Everest. Ancient records state that the Ancient Dragon People, when traveling the continent, claimed to be residents of Skalaste.]
