CHAPTER 1693: CHAPTER 560 STILL RACING AGAINST TIME {PART 1}

However, the father-in-law has some concerns bottled up about this daughter-in-law. The Poison Flame Demon King’s notorious reputation is formidable. Liu Zhenhan has always believed in the old saying "Better safe than sorry," so Xiao Bei the commander and the two female bosses have received secret instructions that under any circumstances, Enrida must be positioned at the front line. If she shows any signs of mischief, Xiao Bei’s Coldflame Blade should have no problem eliminating the Magic Tutor at close range.

The current Mage Protector Corps numbers 643 people, closely approaching the infantry corps of Florence. The entire echelon is extremely well-organized.

As the Sky-guard of the Titans and beloved child of Morading, the four pure-blood Duergar Golden Dwarves, each Dwarf mage is naturally an advanced Flash Series mage, even the children are at least intermediate mages. As for the thirty-eight oldsters including Claude, they possess attack power not inferior to a Magic Teacher. However, the magic of Golden Dwarves is akin to magical beasts—rather monotonous. It revolves around a single "Thunderbolt Column." Although the casting speed is fast, overall, it’s not as impressive as the diverse human mages.

Besides mages, Golden Dwarf soldiers are also formidable. Their "Storm Hammer" carries electric shock attributes, virtually indistinguishable from magic, though it is somewhat costly.

Objectively speaking, clad in Phantom Beast armor, the Golden Dwarf soldiers are a bit overqualified as mere guardian soldiers for mages. Liu Zhenhan carefully weighed this issue and decided that in critical times, they should be sent to the skies to assist the air force, showcasing the powerful might of the Golden Hill King.

After the Summer Palace sniper groups withdrew from the Protector Corps, the addition of Butterfly Flower officials somewhat helped Commander Beckham maintain his sniping force---------- in fact, after the establishment of the "Hundred-strong Punisher Corps," Liu Zhenhan entrusted Nedved with the task of sniping the enemy mages, while Xiao Bei worked from the Protector Corps’ perspective to solve all issues independently.

Freshwater Mermaids, like the Golden Dwarves, are also a backbone force of the Protector Corps. The freshwater Mermaids adept in ice and water were already formidable, and the emergence of the "Harmonious Pearl" brought new blessings to them--------- seventeen pairs of Freshwater Mermaid couples have opened their "Nymph Narcissus Dual Cultivation Realm Barrier." The initial evolution of this realm barrier, unsurprisingly to Liu Zhenhan, is a shield, but this shield is not made of Elemental Mermaids, but a pair of elemental shells that can not only withstand attacks but also serve as shell wings for mid-range flight.

The actual number of Freshwater Mermaid couples is more than seventeen pairs, but a considerable number of freshwater Mermaid couples are unwilling to use such shortcuts to obtain the dual cultivation domain.

For Freshwater Mermaids, the realm barrier holds the potential for awakening and activation at every moment; lack of awakening now does not mean it won’t awaken in the future.

This blessing from Oceanus, the God of Water, holds various special effects, so devout Freshwater Mermaids mostly believe they will earn the favor of the God of Water in the future. Liu Zhenhan completely supports them in maintaining their traditional independence, avoiding shortcuts as it is certainly not the righteous path.

In terms of both software and hardware, as well as organizational structure, this "World-class Mage Protector Corps," adorned with crescent moon sabers and crowns, with the Muradan flower emblem as its battle flag, has already stood out on the Aegean Continent. Due to the inclusion of Flower Elves and Mo Shao Illusionists, anyone who faces them in the future will likely find it a headache---------- especially Five-floral Xifu Elise, the higher the mage level in cooperation with her, the more terrifying her combat strength!

With the large-scale application of Osteo Staffs, Shield Gems, Ultra-Order Magic Crystals, and Thunder Diamonds, along with priority supply from the Spring of Elements, Liu Zhenhan feels his Mage Protector Corps bears a closer resemblance to ferocious magical beasts rather than mages, a sensation that fills him with pride for a long time.

As another elemental combat unit of Florence carrying the battle flags of the "War God Family Portrait" and "Mount Hyjal," the "Cultural Attack and Martial Guard Sacerdoteal Corps" is composed of a hundred young Cambridge Priests and Summer Palace Clerics, forming the direct forces of Boss Lady Helen. This sacerdoteal corps’ magical combat strength is virtually on par with an equivalent number of Mage Protectors because they possess the Teardrop Water Arrow released by the Seven-string Pearl Zither! Because they possess the Great Wind Battle Dance! Because they have the song power of intermediate-level Scepter Shamans! Because they possess a large number of top-grade magic crystals, blood marrow, and Heart of Blood Feather! Because they possess double magic plant pets!

For the sacerdoteal’s magic plant pets, Liu Zhenhan initially had five options. The first was the "Needle-leaf Lanling Pine" located in the central territory of the cedar forest under the foot of Tamerlarya. This golden magic pine tree reaches thirty meters high, and its sharp pine needles can launch concentrated sprays with the power of buckshot; the second option is the "Snow Tower Pine" located at the foot of the snow mountain, a giant pine reaching a hundred meters high that can throw pine cones to launch snowy blade sprays as its weapon; the third option is a magic plant from the primitive forest of the Underground World, bald-headed and referred to as "Wulut Tert" by the Cave Dwellers. The tree holes on its body can spew corrosive acid; the fourth option is the magic orange trees known to generate "Gravitational Pulse Light Waves" from the primitive forest of the Chesang Continent. This kind of magic orange tree had been discovered by Elder Cruyff when shepherding the forests with young Ents on Chesang Continent. The elder had captured some macaques to help him plant peaches and make wine, even tried using oranges—the taste of the monkey-made wine was still pretty good; the fifth option is the "Flowing Maple," located in the center of the Southern Cross Star Forest, which can shoot "Streaming Waterfall Arrows," undoubtedly fierce; the sixth option is still a magic plant from the Southern Cross Star Forest ---------- "Cherry Blossom Rice," a special kind of magic rice that resembles cherries. When it bursts, it blooms into clusters of splendid fireworks with adhesive burning power.

In fact, the Southern Cross Star Forest also has a type of magic plant called the "Ximilan Chelong Space Magic Oak," but the magic of this oak is a non-lethal "Illusory Space." It’s not very suitable as a combat-type plant pet, but its trunk and leaves are an excellent choice for making magic plant maintenance badges. For collecting and preserving plant badges, Elder Cruyff indeed has the ability to enhance and create them, and it’s just as convenient as the Beamon’s Hibernation Boundary badge.

Logically speaking, the Southern Cross Star Forest is the green treasure trove pastured by Elder Cruyff. Whether using "Sakura Tree Rice" or "Flowing River Maple" as the magic plant pets for the Aegean’s shaman, it should be twice the result with half the effort. Even if the old Ent can’t excessively interfere with the autonomy of the magic plants, these magic plants should give him some face.

However, Liu Zhenhuan finally chose the "Gravity Pulse Citrus Tree" from Chesang Continent as the plant pet for the young shamans. Those more reliable "Flowing River Maple" and "Sakura Tree Rice," he thought it would be better to leave them to other shamans of the kingdom.

This kind of magic citrus tree from Chesang Continent is up to ten meters tall, its canopy lush like a cover, bearing lots of fruit. The "Gravitational Pulse Light Wave" launched from the core trunk has a range of 500 yards with a cooldown of one minute. When used, it can exert a strong gravitational attraction on an object. Judging from its magical characteristics alone, it is a very interesting magic plant.

"Gravitational Pulse Light Wave" is a mutation form of the Electric Elemental magic and belongs uniquely to the natural world, similar to Earth’s Gravity. This magic can be considered a typical battlefield magic rather than a duel-type magic — once the "Gravitational Pulse Light Wave" is cast on some unlucky fellow, a powerful gravitational magnetic field will form around this unfortunate person as the center. After a "boom," everything within a 50-yard radius will be chain-attracted by gravity, violently colliding towards this magnetic circle.

Liu Zhenhuan imagined the scene of a high-speed tractor collision; he estimated the force of this magic should be akin to the extent of a combine harvester colliding at high speed. Whoever is in the central magnetic field will be particularly unlucky. It’s hard to say for those on the outermost, but for ordinary little soldiers on the battlefield who lack any magic resistance, such magic is terrifying; at least, a 250-yard effective radius is a disaster for dense infantry formations!

The large-scale taming of this kind of magic citrus as the plant pets for the young shamans required much thought from old Liu. Although magic plants are more docile compared to magical beasts, it doesn’t mean they are willing to accept the shaman’s summons.

At first, old Liu planned to burn them until they agreed if they didn’t comply, anyway, the magic plants’ range is not that high, and they can’t move and dodge like magical beasts, just their damage resistance is quite abnormal. With Otigha’s ability, it’s natural to burn as you wish, and fire magic is much more decisive against plants compared to other magics’ dawdling!

These magic plants aren’t good for anything else but enduring, and aren’t afraid of being burned.

However, Shepherd-tree Elder Cruyff almost cursed Liu Zhenhuan to death, the elder was furious. He felt it was utterly disgraceful for old Liu, as an expatriate Ent, to be so ruthless and cruel towards the trees, unworthy of the dual identity as the Flower King and Ent.

However, Elder Cruyff’s good intentions were wasted; when negotiating with these magic citrus trees, these magic plants completely dismissed him. The vast majority refused to become the plant pets of the young shamans, but they were very eager to become Liu Zhenhuan’s plant pets instead.

What happened next was very unexpected. Just as old Liu was about to show them some colors, these magic citrus trees acted as if they had gone mad, suddenly agreeing to the summons and willingly became the plant pets of the young shamans.
