A mage's journey begins with a battle mage.

Chapter 604 The Day of Demise

Nathur, the birthplace of the Druids, is also a vast primeval jungle.

Here, towering trees thousands of meters tall are everywhere, and there are even many trees so tall that their height is impossible to discern.

On the land shrouded in the shadow of the giant tree, several druids were arguing about something.

"Utterly cowardly! Why should we negotiate with someone like that?"

A druid glared angrily, looking as if he wanted to devour someone.

"Kentie, when did you become so irritable? How many times have I told you, we druids must remain neutral!"

"You dare accuse me? I believed your nonsense before, you old codger, Kanbar, all you ever do is try to smooth things over! Do you know which mage wreaked havoc on several planes and the elven forests during this war?"

Kenti, the druid, was panting heavily and felt a little lightheaded.

This is because she was angry.

As one of the less extreme extremists, although he frequently punished those who destroyed nature, he also released many powerful enemies of nature in order to maintain consistency with the moderates.

The reason for this is that, as Cambal said, one should remain neutral and not act impulsively.

But now, Kenty can't hold on any longer.

Whenever he saw the scenes recorded by the elves, looking at the barren land stretching for thousands of miles, filled with decay and the aura of death, he would feel a surge of anger rising in his heart, which lingered for a long time.

Therefore, when the Elvenking Thranduil invited him to join forces against Jiang Shuzhou, he readily accepted.

"Use your brain! Kenty! Don't you see something's wrong?"

Kambal looked utterly desperate. Who were these people?

Someone shows you a documentary, and you get all worked up and immediately declare that you want to join the war?

Do you know how intense this war is? Even several legends have died!

Moreover, they were dealing with Jiang Shuzhou and had brought their own provisions.

What, do you feel like you're just bored and your life is too mundane, so you're planning to die?

"That's not right, I think this is exactly right!"

Kenty said he didn't feel anything was wrong at all.

Anyway, Jiang Shuzhou did it, so what else is there to say? Just go for it.

"You...sigh..."

With a sigh, Kambal rubbed his forehead and then decided to just run away.

He couldn't beat Jiang Shuzhou, nor did he dare to.

Maybe he's too realistic.

Every druid has their own unique perspective on protecting nature.

Cambal's view on protecting nature is simply to do what he can.

An existence of Jiang Shuzhou's caliber requires the intervention of the will of nature; otherwise, no one could defeat him.

Kambal isn't stupid; naturally, he won't confront them head-on.

"I will inform the other side of this matter and ask them to cease fire. As for whether it will work out, that's up to fate."

Kambal waved his hand, then left without saying anything.

This departure may mean he will never return.

"Ha, get out of here, you old fool! You call yourself a nature protector? I think you're just an accomplice!"

Kenty cursed angrily.

Some of the other legendary druids left with them, while others remained seated.

"Now, let's discuss this."

Kentie pulled the druids standing around him together and began to discuss something.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"This tree is really big and straight; it's definitely a good piece of timber."

Looking at those enormous trees, Jiang Shuzhou sighed.

These trees are no ordinary things; if they were all cut down to make walking sticks, they could supply Soth with his learning for quite some time.

Coincidentally, the academy is currently training a large number of monks to meet Jiang Shuzhou's needs.

Now, the raw materials for the staffs allocated to these mages have been secured.

Nathur, the birthplace of druids, is said to be the place where humans and treants lived in peace, eventually giving rise to the druid profession.

Of course, that's all ancient history. Nowadays, druids are almost being relegated to the clergy category by mages.

After all, if one can cast spells by kneeling before the will of nature every day, isn't that a kind of priesthood?

"Halt! Who are you, and why are you here!"

Just as Jiang Shuzhou was brazenly surveying the surrounding trees and calculating how many staffs he could make, someone came over, saw Jiang Shuzhou, and directly questioned him.

"Why bother with so much? Some things are better left unattended."

Jiang Shuzhou simply tossed his hand aside and then said.

"What if I insist on interfering?"

"Then remember to visit your own grave this time next year!"

Jiang Shuzhou didn't even bother to pretend; his purpose in coming here was to let these primitive people experience what a magical war was like.

With a flash of magic in his hand, the Death Pointer flew swiftly toward the druid.

This druid never expected that his simple intention to get involved would result in him hitting the jackpot, encountering Jiang Shuzhou, and being killed by him.

Of course, Jiang Shuzhou's ability to know so clearly about these radicals' opposition to him was largely due to the help of the moderates.

It can only be said that competitors are enemies, and this applies everywhere.

This time, it might have been intentional on their part.

However, at most they would assume that Jiang Shuzhou would know the news in advance and be able to make preparations.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuzhou dared to directly attack Natur.

"Who dares to indiscriminately kill innocent people here!"

Kenty roared and charged straight at her.

Seeing this, Jiang Shuzhou immediately used a Death Finger to see if he could take the other party away.

It's a pity we can't.

Kenti frowned, then mobilized his power to directly erase the death power contained in the Death Finger, rendering it ineffective.

"You are... Jiang Shuzhou?"

Kenti looked up and instantly recognized Jiang Shuzhou.

Shock, confusion, followed by anger.

Fine, I didn't look for you, but you still dare to come here? I think you're tired of living!

"You wantonly slaughter the innocent and harm the weak, yet you dare to appear before me now?"

he said angrily.

Jiang Shuzhou pursed his lips in response, and then said.

"What nonsense! My war with the elves is an endless racial war, there are no civilians involved. Besides, who do you think you are?"

As Jiang Shuzhou spoke, he stepped back and then disappeared, seemingly leaving.

"They ran away?"

Kenty said uncertainly.

In his perception, Jiang Shuzhou suddenly disappeared, seemingly having escaped.

However, is this possible?

"Old man, let me show you what the pinnacle weapon of the new magical age truly is!"

Jiang Shuzhou's voice rang out, and then a huge city appeared in the sky before Kenti's eyes.

Without a doubt, that is the floating city.
