Chapter 002: The Three Forbidden Magics

Upon arriving at this place, Du Fan’s heart finally calmed down. He landed from the air at a distance and observed the situation on the mountain opposite for a while.

On that mountain, where the elves were trapped, many elves gradually gathered. With Du Fan’s sharp eyesight, he could see them clearly.

Geographically, that mountain was highly advantageous for Moses’s side. At the top was a fairly flat area, and there was only one natural passage wide enough to about ten meters leading into it.

Moses stood alone in that passage, ready for battle! About twenty meters behind him were nine knights riding black beasts!

Behind those nine knights were dense ranks of elf archers. Judging from their appearance, each of those elf archers was strong and vigorous, with none of them injured!

Seeing this situation, Du Fan’s worried heart finally settled completely.

Taking out a magic letter, Du Fan wrote down the exact location where Moses and his group were trapped. He clasped his hands, and the magic letter disappeared.

“Naixiu, can your archery reach such a long distance?” Du Fan asked Naixiu beside him.

Naixiu narrowed her eyes to estimate, then nodded.

“Can you unleash a forbidden-level, large-scale arrow technique?” Du Fan asked.

“Yes. Among our elf archery techniques, there is one called ‘Meteor Fire Rain,’ a forbidden magic that allows attacks over a very large area!” Naixiu replied. “This distance—about two kilometers—is the perfect range for using Meteor Fire Rain.”

“Good. Then prepare to unleash Meteor Fire Rain. El, do your dark magic traditions have any large-scale group attack spells? You can sneak down to the foot of that mountain and cast them later,” Du Fan said to the mage beside him. This elf mage’s name was El.

“Yes. Among dark magic techniques, there is one called ‘Hellish Wraiths,’ which can summon thousands of those dark creatures. Those beasts will bite anyone they see. It’s a forbidden summoning spell of the dark arts,” El nodded in agreement.

“Then go down now. Once you see Naixiu unleash Meteor Fire Rain, release your Hellish Wraiths,” Du Fan said.

As Du Fan was speaking, an unexpected situation arose—a giant golden eagle suddenly descended from the sky and landed right in the dwarf army. Immediately, a man stepped out of the crowd surrounding Moses. Du Fan recognized this man; it was none other than Tek, the second-in-command of the magical beast faction! Back at the site of the Divine Ruins, Du Fan had a good impression of Tek, who seemed like an old friend. Who would have thought Tek would be among those surrounding Moses! Tek’s appearance instantly complicated the already chaotic situation among the dwarves! Since even the second-in-command had appeared, it was clear that the magical beast faction was on Karu’s side! Now, Basha had to deal not only with the rebellious dwarves but also with the threat from the magical beast faction. Seeing Tek appear, Du Fan felt an overwhelming sense of heaviness in his heart! The rebellion led by Karu was far more complicated than Du Fan had thought! Initially, Du Fan believed that Karu and the Tatta family were rebelling because the rule of the Dwarf King threatened their family’s interests. But with Tek’s appearance, it seemed things weren’t that simple! “Naixiu, my dear wife, it seems this matter is getting worse!” Du Fan murmured. Naixiu also recognized Tek, and she frowned upon seeing him appear. By this time, the magician named El had already descended the mountain. “Du Fan, what should we do next? Is Moses in danger?” Naixiu asked with a frown. “I don’t think so for now. After all, Moses is also a powerful domain master, and he has even consumed the War Domain of the Ghost King,” Du Fan replied. “Wait, if you see any major activity in the rebel camp, release your meteor shower toward the crowded areas!” After saying that, Du Fan flew like a giant bird toward the opposite mountain peak. Among the dwarves besieging the elf army, the dwarf warriors made way for Tek’s arrival. The leader among them rode a giant pangolin and headed toward Tek. “Respected Commander Tek, that elf warrior is extremely powerful. With him guarding that passage, we can’t get in at all,” the leader of the pangolin warriors said to Tek. Before the Dwarf King established the Black Panther Knight Corps, the dwarves had always used pangolins as mounts to form their cavalry forces.

These giant pangolins are very suitable for climbing between mountains, and they are also fast. Moreover, the scales on their bodies serve as a form of protection for them. However, they are still far inferior to Black Pythons. As magical beasts, Black Pythons have a lifespan of at least two thousand years, while giant pangolins are just ordinary beasts with a lifespan of only about sixty years. So, throughout a giant pangolin knight’s entire career, he must replace his pangolin many times! As a result, the level of默契 between a giant pangolin knight and his mount is certainly not as high as that between a Black Python knight and his Black Python. Additionally, since Black Pythons are magical beasts, they possess offensive capabilities, whereas giant pangolins cannot be used for attacking. In terms of speed, giant pangolin knights are far inferior to Black Python knights! The Black Python Knight Corps being the symbol of the highest martial prowess among the dwarves is no exaggeration! “You called me here in such a hurry just to solve this problem?” Tek said with a smile. “That’s right, respected leader. That man is a domain master, and he’s standing at the only path leading up the mountain. Unless we get past him, we won’t be able to approach those archers at all!” the giant pangolin knight said angrily. It was clear that this man had suffered a great deal at Moses’s hands during the attack on the mountain. “Has he used his domain? What are the characteristics of his domain?” Tek asked with a smile. “It’s a strange domain! Once inside his domain space, one feels extremely heavy—moving becomes very difficult! Many of our dwarf warriors have died from bleeding from all orifices after entering his domain space! And from their corpses, it seems as though they were crushed by heavy weights, with all their bones shattered!” the giant pangolin knight said. “It seems to be a quite powerful domain. Come on, I want to take a look.” Tek said with a smile. When Tek stepped forward and stood opposite Moses, Moses’s expression changed. “Tek? How is it you? What are you doing here?” Moses asked, his tone shifting. “You’re Moses? The son of that old guy from the Elven Ancient Tree clan?” Tek said with a smile. “That’s right! I am Moses. Do you also intend to pass by me?” Moses’s expression darkened as he planted his War Sword in the ground and grabbed the hilt with his other hand. “Heh, kid, do you really think you can stop me?” Tek said with a smile.

As soon as he spoke, a silver glow emanated from Tek’s body. The glow grew larger and larger, and a tremendous pressure surged toward Moses!
The moment they met, Tek immediately unleashed his domain!
This domain was a pure silver color! As it expanded, Moses felt as though his body was about to be torn to pieces!
Stomping his left foot firmly on the ground, Moses snarled, and a gray domain also appeared!
The silver and gray domains collided immediately in the passage, and at the point of friction between the two colors, tiny black lightning-like sparks kept appearing!
Seeing this, Du Fan hesitated no longer! He cast the magic he had prepared in the air at the densely packed ranks of the dwarf warriors!
A intensely green light shot out from Du Fan’s hand and plunged straight into the ground beneath the dwarf warriors.
Suddenly, the appearance of such a person in the sky startled the dwarves! They quickly swung their axes at Du Fan.
Du Fan didn’t even wait for those axes to hit him. After firing the intense green light, he vanished in a gust of wind!
Seeing the green light strike down, the dwarves were also shocked. They held their weapons tightly, on high alert. But after more than ten seconds with no movement around, the dwarf warriors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps the magic used by that person earlier had lost its effect, they thought.
Just as they relaxed, something happened! Centered on the spot where Du Fan had sent the green light, tremors began, and cracks appeared on the ground!
The cracks grew larger and larger! Soon, a green wind dragon flew out from those cracks! After emerging, it soared straight into the sky!
The wind dragon didn’t attack the dwarf warriors; it simply flew upward and, once in the air, completely transformed into pure wind magic and disappeared.
Soon, a massive hurricane appeared where the wind dragon had flown! Once it appeared, it wandered around, sucking in the dwarf soldiers around it!
The dwarf warriors who were drawn into the hurricane were torn to pieces by the violent wind energy inside and scattered everywhere!
In just a few seconds since the hurricane appeared, over thirty soldiers had already been sucked in!

That’s not all! From the ground near where the wind dragons had just flown off, eight more wind dragons emerged one after another! With their arrival came eight hurricanes, which swiftly swept toward the soldiers of the dwarf race! Chaos immediately broke out in the dwarf army! As the hurricanes passed, the dwarf warriors fled in panic, and their formation was completely disrupted! At that moment, a sharp sound of something cutting through the air was heard from the east. As the sound faded, countless fire meteors suddenly appeared above the dwarf army! These meteors weren’t large, but their numbers were enormous! Seeing the massive chaos in the dwarf army, Naixiu immediately unleashed her powerful arrow technique, the Meteor Fire Rain, on the densely packed areas of the dwarf forces. Meanwhile, at the foot of the mountain, where the dwarf army’s rear guard was located, terrifying howls suddenly arose! Swarms of black, fanged spirits with gaping mouths and long tusks rushed at the dwarf soldiers!
