BOOM! BOOM!

A tremendous commotion echoed out in the dead of night, traveling far and wide.

Chaos rapidly spread from the infirmary district to the entire camp.

Numerous soldiers were jolted awake from their sleep, hastily donning their armor. They barely stepped out of their tents when they were sent flying by enormous fists, their bodies disintegrating mid-air before their eyes.

From the commanding officers to the common soldiers, none had anticipated the enemy appearing at the heart of their camp. Caught completely off guard, they were initially unable to mount any organized counterattack.

The brutal massacre spread at an alarming rate.

“Damn it, stop those monsters!”

The oldest commanding officer was the first to react, immediately drawing his weapon and charging towards the stone golems.

Others, like awoken from a dream, joined the fray, some rushing forward to block the monsters, while others ordered their men to remain calm, attempting to quell the chaos and reorganize their forces.

Just then, a deafening roar of battle erupted from the direction of the camp gate.

Baron Storm nearly fainted.

He didn’t need to think to know that Kei had led his forces to attack.

Under normal circumstances, he would have welcomed Kei’s intervention.

However, the camp was in utter disarray, its defenses at their weakest.

With Firefly Castle attacking at this moment, it was like stabbing a knife into their back, and the consequences were unimaginable.

“Damn it! Damn it!”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Baron Storm was both terrified and furious, stomping his feet in frustration.

He racked his brains, unable to understand how the enemy had managed to infiltrate the camp.

These rock monsters were so enormous, even a blind man couldn’t miss them!

“A bunch of useless fools!”

Baron Storm wanted to hang every single guard and patrol soldier, but he was not completely foolish. He knew that losing his composure at this moment would be disastrous.

Taking a deep breath, Baron Storm forced himself to calm down. Under the protection of his personal guard, he retreated, putting distance between himself and the rock monsters. Then, he pulled out a greyish-black tooth from his chest. ʀ

The tooth was exceptionally sharp, seemingly a fang from some ferocious beast. Its surface was covered with eerie, blood-red veins, exuding an aura of sinister strangeness.

Baron Storm used a small knife to make a cut on his left thumb, then pressed the wound against the tooth.

His blood flowed freely, spreading along the blood-red veins. A layer of sinister bloodlight flickered across the tooth’s surface.

The next moment, the tent beside the command tent suddenly shattered, and more than ten figures surged out, instantly reaching Baron Storm’s side.

In the flickering firelight, it was clear that these figures were all clad in thick cloaks, obscuring their tall forms. Beneath the brim of their hoods, heavy, beastly breaths could be heard.

“Kill those monsters!” Baron Storm roared.

The dozen cloaked figures charged towards the surrounding rock monsters without a word. As they sped forward, their cloaks billowed, revealing two arms beneath, covered in thick fur and sharp claws, resembling those of a beast.

CRUNCH!

Sharp claws landed on a rock monster, instantly scraping away a large chunk of stone.

More claw shadows followed in a storm, tearing the rock monster into pieces in an instant.

In just one encounter, more than ten rock monsters were torn apart by the cloaked figures, turning into piles of rubble.

Not far away, Su Nan, who had just arrived, saw this scene and a look of surprise crossed his face.

“Beastmen!”

The primal ferocity emanating from these cloaked figures was almost impossible to mask, not to mention their obvious beastly features. They were undeniably beastmen.

“As expected, the beastman plague in the Frost Province is connected to Duke Goldenrock!”

Su Nan looked at the blood-red bone tooth in Baron Storm’s hand, his eyes narrowed slightly.

He wasn’t surprised that Baron Storm possessed a trump card.

After the incident with Owen, if Duke Goldenrock and the others didn’t guard against his attempt to execute a decapitation strike, they would be incredibly foolish.

Now it seemed that these beastmen were likely his trump card to counter him.

However, Su Nan was puzzled. These beastmen seemed to be only at the level of junior Grand Knights, with a few reaching the level of intermediate Grand Knights. While they might be sufficient to deal with others, they were hardly enough to handle him.

Duke Goldenrock couldn’t possibly be unaware of this.

Or perhaps there was something else unusual about these beastmen?

Standing motionless in the chaotic camp, Su Nan’s presence was far too conspicuous. Baron Storm and his men quickly noticed him.

A commanding officer immediately demanded in a deep voice, “Which squad do you belong to, soldier?”

Su Nan smiled wryly, no longer concealing himself. He deactivated his spell, returning to his original form.

Seeing the soldier transform into a young man in the blink of an eye, everyone present stared in astonishment.

Baron Storm immediately understood, exclaiming in a stunned voice:

“Su Nan!”

Due to his extreme shock, his tone became somewhat sharp.

However, no one paid any attention to this at the moment. Everyone stared at the young man in front of them with faces full of dread.

Was this the wizard from Shining Light Territory?

At this point, they finally understood how the monsters had appeared in the middle of their heavily guarded camp.

The legendary wizard could even do this?

“Kill him!”

Returning to his senses, Baron Storm immediately issued a command with a distorted face. The bloodlight on the tooth in his hand intensified.

In an instant, the surrounding beastmen abandoned their opponents without hesitation, turning to attack Su Nan.

Su Nan’s expression remained calm. He unleashed his pre-prepared Magic Missiles.

With his growing spiritual power, the number of Magic Missiles he could launch had increased to five.

The five missiles shot through the void like lightning, striking a beastman who was charging towards him.

However, to Su Nan’s surprise, the missiles only left a small wound the size of an egg on the beastman. He only staggered slightly, then continued his charge as if nothing had happened.

“Magic resistance!”

Su Nan’s expression instantly turned serious. Finally, he understood what they relied on.

Generally, knights infected with beastman disease would lose their ability to use martial energy, replaced by a significant increase in physical strength, resulting in increased combat power.

However, these beastmen, besides being exceptionally strong, seemed to have undergone some kind of modification, greatly enhancing their resistance to magic. It was clearly a tactic aimed specifically at him, the wizard apprentice.

“Physical modification… Does Duke Goldenrock have a wizard apprentice behind him?”

Su Nan’s mind was filled with doubt.

Based on previous events, Duke Goldenrock didn’t seem to have a wizard apprentice behind him, otherwise, he wouldn’t have repeatedly underestimated Su Nan.

Yet, these beastmen overturned his assumptions.

However, this was no time to ponder such matters. Seeing the beastmen charging at him, Su Nan decisively activated his Ice Freeze Necklace.

High magic resistance was relative.

When a spell’s power was strong enough, high magic resistance would naturally become low magic resistance.

In the stunned gazes of Baron Storm and his men, an intense wave of frigid air, mixed with visible frost, erupted from Su Nan as its center, spreading outwards in all directions!

CRACK! CRACK!

The dozen beastmen who were charging towards Su Nan had no time to react, instantly frozen into ice sculptures, crashing to the ground with a bang!

Looking down from the sky, the area within a radius of 100 meters centered on Su Nan had turned into a frozen wasteland, with even the ground covered in a thick layer of ice.

A blinding white frost had appeared out of nowhere in the vast camp!
