The sun rose!
When Mas woke up, he stretched lazily and yawned.
Last night, he was too engrossed in reading the encyclopedia of the alchemy materials and only fell asleep late at night.
When he woke up this morning, Mas felt his back ache.
“Looks like I have to stay up less in the future. My body is still young. If I continue to stay up like this, I’m afraid my body won’t be able to take it for a long time.” Mas yawned. After washing up with the water magic runes carved by Sha You, he walked out of the Alchemy Tower and felt the beautiful air of nature.
“The air quality in this alternate world is too good. It’s so comfortable. If I can open a tour group from another world on Earth, I’m afraid I’ll make a fortune!” Mas laid on the grass as he thought to himself. A faint smile appeared on his face.
“Mas!” A pleasant female voice came from behind, and when Mas heard it, he looked over.
Lilith had unknowingly arrived behind him.
“Lilith, is it alright to stay here?” Mas asked the lively Lilith.
“Everything here is amazing. I like Sha You and Leah. They’re good to me. The only thing is, the pond is still a little too small.” Lilith told Mas everything with a smile.
“Is that so? Then I’ll get those Red Crystal Gargoyles to help you dig a bigger pond so that you have more space to move around!” Mas laughed.
“Thank you, Mas. I’ll be waiting!” Lilith smiled sweetly.
“Oh right, Lilith, I saw in the book that the Siren’s voices are extremely pleasant and enchanting. However, other than the day we met, I have never heard your song before. Can you sing a song for me?” Mas carefully asked, afraid that this request was extremely excessive.
“Of course. Mas, you are my good friend.” Lilith smiled.
Lilith cleared her throat.
She was about to start singing. Her voice was melodious and soothing.
When Mas heard the song, he lay down on the grass and recalled all the beautiful memories of his past life. A faint smile of happiness spread across his face.
“If this were on Earth from my previous life, she would definitely be a Diva!” Mas thought to himself.
Enjoying the beautiful singing voice and breathing in the pure air and feeling the aura of nature, Mas felt that everything was so beautiful.
However, not long after, Mas felt the ground tremble unnaturally.
Not far away, orderly footsteps could be heard.
Lilith seemed to sense the commotion in the distance and stopped singing.
Mas jumped up from the ground and sat on the Red Crystal Gargoyle, looking into the distance.
When Mas saw a large number of soldiers in silver armor, holding giant shields and carrying several spears rushing towards the Alchemy Tower, his expression began to change.
“Looks like we still have to solve this problem of the Trun Kingdom in the end?!” Mas said gloomily.
Mas, who had not killed all the witnesses when he had recklessly taken Lilith from Salt Lake, was mentally prepared. The people of the Trun Kingdom would seek revenge on them, but he had not expected it to come so quickly.
After all, in order to capture Lilith, the Trun Kingdom had sent out half of the country’s elite Spear Legion. After this battle, only a few people died. Even one of the three commanders, Mars, died.
It would be strange if the Trun Kingdom, which had suffered a double loss, did not come for revenge.
However, Mas did not panic at all. Since the king of the Trun Kingdom had chosen to take revenge, the murderer had to be prepared to be killed!
Mas made the Red Crystal Gargoyle fly to the side of the pond and jumped down. He said to Lilith, “Lilith, it’s not safe here. The person who wants to capture you is here. Come back to the Golden Alchemy Tower with me!” Mas put all the Red Crystal Gargoyles into the alchemy space and said to Lilith.
After Mas returned to the Alchemy Tower, he immediately told the four of them about the Trun Kingdom’s revenge and asked them to think of a countermeasure.
“Leah, how many rune turrets can we use now?” Mas asked first.
“Brother Mas, I’m sorry that we only managed to carve six sets of runes for the Flaming Heaven Rune, so only six rune turrets can be used,” Leah said guiltily.
“Don’t feel too guilty, Leah. You and Sha You should immediately carve six sets of Flaming Heaven Rune into the rune turret,” Mas instructed.
When the two sisters heard this, they immediately ran off to carry it out.
“Walter, Harry, do you know how to control the rune turret?” Mas asked.
Although the rune turret could be automatically aimed, it was more accurate to be controlled by humans.
“Boss, I do!” Walter nodded.
On the other hand, Harry rubbed the back of his head and laughed dryly at the side while remaining silent. Obviously, he did not know how to operate the Rune Turret.
“It’s okay, Walter. Teach Harry how to operate the rune turret. He can’t shoot accurately, but he can at least hit where he points.”
“Okay, boss.” Walter nodded and led Harry to the ninth floor of the Alchemy Tower. Mas himself took Lilith to the top floor.
This time, the Trun Kingdom had mobilized all their forces. Things would definitely not be settled so easily with some compensation.
A bloody battle was unavoidable.
However, Mas was not afraid at all. On the contrary, he was secretly looking forward to it. He could not wait to see how powerful the alchemical creatures he refined were in such a large scale battle.
...
“General, the Alchemy Tower is right ahead!”
“Just now, I vaguely heard the singing of the sea demons. It should be the sea demon that we want to capture. However, the master of the Alchemy Tower is really bold. He actually dared to snatch that sea demon from our Trun Kingdom!”
“In order to prevent this matter from being exposed to the Storm Empire, I have already killed all the mercenaries who received the bounty. His Majesty has already ordered that all the creatures in this Alchemy Tower must be taken away.”
A middle-aged officer who was dressed similar to Mars said, “Don’t mess around, you boorish man. If something goes wrong this time, you and I won’t be able to bear the responsibility!”
“What’s there to be afraid of, Bruce? Although I’m a martial artist, I know the severity of the matter. I know when to be reckless and what to be cautious about. I have confidence in myself.” Beside him, a middle-aged man in silver armor with five spears on his back revealed a sinister smile as he said coldly.
“Kehr, don’t be careless. Don’t forget what happened to Mars!” Bruce said solemnly.
The two of them were the commanders of the other two Spear Legion commanders of the Trun Kingdom.
The two of them had brought a total of 1500 spear corps with them. It could be said that they had drawn out the remaining elite spear corps of the Trun Kingdom.. This showed the determination of the Trun Kingdom to flatten the Alchemy Tower.
