Wizard: Starting With the Knights Breathing Method Chapter 2982: 607: Ancient Tower Master!

Madam, please take this seriously!

——————Sauron.

The Netherworld Ancestor shut the "Sauron Quotations," maintaining a composed expression, yet inner unrest stirred. Even after his demise, this individual persisted in shaping events throughout the Multidimensional Plane.

This figure stands as the forebear of wizards.

He might not claim the title of the mightiest, yet he remains the most puzzling. Hidden under his wild facade beats a core shrouded in enigma.

The Netherworld Ancestor understood that Sauron’s playful advances served merely as a mask; his true intent focused on the pursuits of Nora and the Underworld, leaving her with scant bitterness toward him.

...

Time flowed onward.

As darknesses merged, the Land of Nora appeared as if a map creator had sprung to life, forging seas and fresh territories through immense force.

The count of emerging continents climbed beyond one hundred thousand and eighty thousand. These fresh lands stayed as empty canvases, devoid of societies or groups, retaining the pristine look of the world from its genesis.

In these areas, the essences of Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water abounded, alongside countless natural Aether Stones and ore deposits, overflowing with wealth that thrilled the council leaders.

Brimming with riches, Nora now resembled a vibrant youth, transforming rapidly in mere moments to the point of being almost unrecognizable.

At present.

The tally of Grand Wizards had soared to 240, encompassing over twenty who had completed the Nine Rings, and should progress continue without hitches, numerous Legendary Wizards could emerge within the coming thousand years.

Certain Legendary Reincarnators, such as Lucy, had reclaimed the Nine Rings Perfect Realm once more. Given her solid base, attaining legendary rank posed no major challenge, and she might even advance beyond.

Nora’s string of triumphs had instilled resolve in every clan across the Pan-Plane, particularly since the Dusk Palace Master unveiled tenth-level might, inspiring countless seekers to study in Nora.

The roster of level 9 alien races had surpassed 300 and kept expanding swiftly. Projections suggest that by Nora’s third millennium’s close, it could top 500!

Levels 9 and 10 form the pinnacle pillars of any civilization. On the other hand, levels 6 through 8 constitute the sturdy core, the blade wielding force on every front line.

Lately, the solitary tenth-level mid-stage expert [Giant Wood King] aligned with the interim council, acquired a top-tier artifact, and pledged service to Nora.

The gravely wounded Fire Bear Emperor vanished from sight. The Supreme Council paid it scant heed, knowing mercenaries carry inherent volatility.

Provided it aided the conflict somewhat, Nora suffered no true setback; one supreme treasure held minor value, and recovery awaited the downfall of the Devouring Sky Demon Lord.

Supreme Council.

Around the circular table, Edmund sat in meditation, eyes shut. Levi’s ascent to level 10 had notably eased his burdens.

Still, he refused to relax, for Levi yet lacked the strength to rival the Supreme Level.

At minimum, Levi required both his wizard and knight paths to hit level 10. Only then could Edmund slowly withdraw, passing the vast vessel of Nora to the younger Levi.

A soft white glow emanated from the round table.

[Message from the Netherworld Ancestor, please review.]

...

Three years passed.

In the year 2215 of the Nora Calendar, equivalent to 2103 in the Blood Battle era.

Across the recent century, bolstered by council aid and individual diligence, the Dusk Eighteen Riders witnessed a massive surge in strength:

Snapping Turtle Knight, Jade Elephant Knight, Feather Knight, and Green Bird Knight had one by one attained the level 8 domain; veterans like Blood Knight, Black Knight, and Ash Knight hovered between level 8 peak and late stage, inching close to level 9.

The newer generation had all climbed past level 8 middle stage, and with time stretching on, a gap of a few centuries mattered little.

After all, they belonged to the ’Heading to Thirty Party,’ all chasing the three-thousand-year goal.

Saint Ape Knight’s path within the Energy Sect hit level 8, and following the forging of the Chaos Seal, he opted to pursue Chaos Mage as a secondary role.

In many ways, Emperor Mu ranked as the most diverse in occupations among the Eighteen Riders... level 8 knight, level 8 Energy Sect, level 3 wizard, level 1 magician.

Even Levi had to admit:

The command of four elements, I cannot match.

Naturally, Emperor Mu chased it for pleasure; his core skills rested in the knight path and Energy Sect, where his gifts shone brightest and his potential peaked highest.

Steel Dragon Knight had lately progressed to eighth-circle wizard, discovering his groove in dual cultivation.

Spanning over two centuries, Mr. Silver’s rebirth as [Silver Thunder Knight] now stood as a rank five dual cultivation knight and wizard.

Trailing the Wind and Fire Dragon Witch, he aimed to elevate the Silver Mountain Family bloodline to Mythical, or perhaps Supreme, once reaching level 6. The exact outcome hinged on his promotion’s challenges.

In this existence, his feats would dwarf those from before.

The holy temple now housed 28 varieties of Mythical Bloodlines.

In lately years, fueled by Nora’s prosperity, backing for the holy temple and knight paths intensified, seeking to forge more knights beyond level 6 ahead of the all-out war.

Levi anticipated the day every Dusk Eighteen Rider hit level 9, enabling them to join him on civilization war’s elite fronts, displaying the grace of knights.

For now, Fire Dragon Knight showed the highest promise; he lingered at level 8 peak for ages, steadying his realm in preparation for supreme bloodline without pushing forward.

Levi wielded the might to master Strength and the defensive dimension Great Tribulation. Come the moment, even with some shortcuts, Fire Dragon Knight would prevail.

That said, he trusted Fire Dragon Knight wouldn’t need such aids.

Meanwhile, at the Starfire Wizard Academy.

Black Pearl Boy Garcia had silently progressed to Eight Ring Perfection, with roughly five hundred years remaining before his life ebbed. Judging by today’s landscape, hope lingered for Nine Rings.

After learning of [Seven-colored Scale Master]’s exploits, Levi tasked Leon with probing Garcia’s prior incarnation; as expected, it matched that figure, proving fate’s twisted ways.

However, with Garcia’s aptitudes, attaining Nine Rings in this lifetime could mark his ceiling, and echoing his former level-10 journey appeared improbable.
