I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

For the players, this is naturally a wonderful thing.

What's more, Lis's Skill Store has also launched a promotion with discounts on learning new skills.

With this, all the players couldn't help but partake in the shopping spree that Lis had meticulously prepared.

So, even though the players had just recently leveled up, their weapons, equipment, and skills have all been upgraded.

While the players celebrated joyfully, Lis naturally made a huge profit.

This time, he almost completely harvested the Gold Coins and Experience Points that the players had accumulated previously.

The leek field he had painstakingly cultivated finally bore abundant fruit.

Don't be fooled by the trade-ins or discounts; Lis didn't lose out at all.

He was like Emperor Qin Shi Huang touching a live wire—winning grandly!

Under Lis's plan, the production output of the Kane Floating City is steadily increasing and recovering.

These Silver Rank weapons and equipment were merely by-products Lis used to test the production operations of the Floating City.

With the continuous support of Magic Power, the cost of these pieces of equipment is not much more than that of metal ores.

Originally, the difference between Silver Rank equipment and Bronze Rank equipment was more due to technological craftsmanship.

After melting down the recycled Bronze Rank equipment, Lis operated with almost no cost.

As for the Experience Points store discount, it was originally a profit-without-cost deal.

Each one is pure profit!

Therefore, although the players are not exactly armed to the teeth, they are more powerful than newly promoted Silver Rank Professionals.

Thus, the players face no pressure from Bronze Rank Lizardmen, Dog-headed Men, or even the weaker goblins.

For a time, the battlefield situation saw players slaughtering the Isaac Great Forest Alliance Army, much like Jasper once slaughtered players.

Amidst the battlefield, as players clashed with the Alliance of Tribes.

The clang of metal on flesh, the roars, and the screams intertwined to form a symphony of death.

Flesh and blood splattered through the air like raindrops, turning the lush forest into a scarlet red.

Scarlet muscles, shattered white bones, and incomplete limbs were strewn across the battlefield.

This once vibrant forest transformed into a hellish terror.

Treading through the slaughter, both sides trampled the swampy pools of blood, grinding the fallen corpses into mush.

Blood and shredded flesh seeped into the forest's soil, seemingly staining everything red.

The air was thick with the smell of blood, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Because the players were vastly outnumbered, although they swiftly slaughtered Bronze Rank enemies, soon all the players found themselves surrounded.

However, the players did not retreat in the slightest, continuing to entangle with the Lizardmen and Centaurs.

Soon the players noticed that the battlefield situation began to stalemate.

Although the Isaac Great Forest Alliance didn't have as many Leaders as the players, with the support of Bronze Rank Warriors, they managed to hold the players.

Originally, the Isaac Alliance knew their lack of Leader Rank numbers compared to the Humans, so they didn't deploy their Leaders initially.

Thus, the players initially slaughtered only Bronze Rank enemies.

After significant losses, the Isaac Alliance clan leaders, assessing the player's strength, finally followed their plan and sent the Commanders into the battle to engage with the players.

At that moment, the pressure on the players increased, resulting in numerous casualties.

For the players, facing several enemies at once proved a bit challenging.

After all, not all players are gaming experts.

Moreover, for many players, this was their first battle against other races' warriors.

In unfamiliar territory regarding their opponents' combat styles, they inevitably suffered minor setbacks.

Among these, the Lizardmen and Centaurs stood out.

The Lizardmen moved with agility, their scales glinting coldly in the sunlight, symbolizing forest-born Shadow Assassins.

Their sharp claw blades swung unpredictably, making them hard to grasp.

Whenever a player let their guard down, the Lizardmen would pounce, fearlessly using their blades to tear into the players' armor, leaving deep wounds.

The Centaurs, however, resembled heavy weapons on the battlefield, their large frames thundering with each hoofbeat.

Accustomed to forest life, they could charge collectively on the less spacious ground.

Each charge seemingly shook the entire forest.

They wielded spears and stone axes, charging the players with brutal momentum.

When the Centaurs charged into the Humans, the sound of metal against flesh was deafening; blood and sweat splattered the air, creating a chaotic battlefield.

The Centaurs' group charges often unleashed unimaginable power, making it difficult for the besieged players to cope.

Additionally, the Dog-headed men's stone throws and the goblins' sneak attacks from low positions posed significant trouble for the players.

Since this was the first time the various races of the Isaac Great Forest were jointly confronting an enemy, they lacked some coordination.

Therefore, the clan leaders decided to fight separately, addressing different areas' enemies individually.

However, the same body meant Isaac's side suffered greater casualties.

And so the war continued.

The battlefield situation, though leaning toward the players, was still very intense.

Especially in Isaac's corner, they had nowhere to retreat and had to grit their teeth and endure despite significant losses.

At that moment, the first to falter was an unexpected presence to everyone.

Jasper!

Currently, he was drenched in blood, even his eyes bathed in crimson.

Despite being a Golden Rank powerhouse, he felt unable to hold on.

Not due to any other reason, but purely due to the exhaustion of energy; he was on the verge of collapse.

Initially, Jasper had recklessly charged into the densest player clusters for quicker Shock.

But the players didn't collapse as he anticipated and continued attacking him relentlessly.

Jasper's arm ached from the slashing, his sword fragmented with cracks, yet he only managed to kill five or six hundred players.

These weren't five or six hundred pigs!

But rather five or six hundred Silver Rank Professionals!

Additionally, during his battle with the players, Jasper sensed something different.

In battles within the Isaac Great Forest, it was primarily close combat.

The ranged attacks were limited to the Lizardmen's arrows and Dog-headed men's stone throws.

When fighting the players, Jasper experienced a never-simplistic combat method.

Especially those seemingly frail Humans wielding "wooden sticks," capable of fireballs and water arrows.

Though never having seen such Spellcasters' attacks before, Jasper instinctively felt threatened by those Spells.

He could only desperately dodge.

Still, the Magic Attacks came too frequently, without disregard for possibly hitting their allies.

Helplessly, Jasper had to expend Combat Energy to neutralize those Spells.

Consequently, Jasper's energy depletion skyrocketed faster than ever before.

For a moment, Jasper started accumulating several wounds.

He could only barely hold on, as the situation was critically dangerous.

Meanwhile, in the distance, the various clan leaders focused on the battlefield, many personally entering the fray, and never noticed Jasper's predicament.

For in their hearts, he was a Hero Level powerhouse!

They could all perish, but nothing would happen to Jasper.

However, one individual noticed Jasper's condition.

That was the Lizardman High Priest, Kuxue.

This pink Lizardman wasn't in the fray; she was a distance away from the battlefield.

Her eyes remained fixed on Jasper, a trace of anxiety in her gaze.

She instinctively touched her belly, her eyes resolute.

Kuxue fell to her knees, praying devoutly:

"Great Mother of the World, please bestow your power, and protect your child Jasper!"

"Grant him the strength to emerge invincible!"

...

At the same time, a golden pillar of Holy Light descended from the depths of the sky, enveloping Jasper.
