The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1305  Under Attack

Karl was about to speak when the panicked messages from the Drodh branch Guild Members began.

[Weʼre under attack. The Gargoyles will hold the yard, who is on the spells?]

[Iʼll push mana to the barrier. Who knows where Sapphire went?]

[Iʼve got Sapphire. She was at the wharf market, and itʼs under attack as well. We canʼt get back quickly.]

[Call the Alliance.]

[Arenʼt Karl and Dana in the Tiny World? They should be able to come back.]

[Oh, Rae is here. Focus on the barrier on the yard.]

[Thor is here too. But no Tessa or the others. I think theyʼre in a dungeon.]

”There is an emergency in Drodh. You all stay here, and Iʼm going to seal the Tiny World when I leave.” Karl explained hurriedly.

Dana left with him, arriving in the Alliance House, and then taking the basement portal to Drodhʼs Guild House Library.

Karl left directly with a portal, then sealed the Tiny World. The exit was in the Zilaz Guild House, but it was safer to keep everything out until he knew what the threat was.

Moments after he arrived, another portal opened in the yard of the Guild House, and Deve led a large force of Myths from the Alliance out.

”What is happening? Oh hell.” He shouted, his voice turning to a stammer as he saw the situation.

Hundreds of portals had opened all over the city, mostly in the air overhead. Supreme Lady Matilda was high overhead, engaged in combat with some sort of eldritch horror that looked like an octopus, and tens of thousands of Mythic Rank beasts had invaded the city.

Thinking fast, Karl sent out a bounty to the Zilaz mission boards.

[Mythic Rank beast invasion of Drodh ongoing. Nara Group offering cash for edible beast corpses. Buying at wholesale plus ten percent bounty, no purchase limit on beasts from the Drodh area invasion.]

He paid extra to have it ping all the registered Guild and Alliance leadership members in the entire Zilaz region.

It might cost them a fortune to buy up all the corpses, but Karl could sense Mythic presences everywhere, plus the Supreme Rank Octopus thing.

The financial cost would not be the worst part, though.

Those portals didnʼt lead somewhere else in the world, they led to somewhere much more powerful, most likely a world in the Immortal Realm. That wasnʼt something that they could easily compete with, and the Supreme Lady looked like she already had her hands full.

”Where is Azov?” Dana asked as she sent her Golems out to fight the amphibious monsters in the streets.

”Heʼs busy. This isnʼt the only portal that made it through today.” Someone shouted back.

Dana turned and saw Lord Drodh with a group of Totem Ranked guards fighting in their direction.

She charged out into the street, hacking her way through the froglike beasts that were spitting balls of magical water at the guards. They didnʼt look too scary, but at Mythic Rank, they were quickly destroying the buildings along the street.

The locals didnʼt have anywhere to flee, as there were attackers on every street.

A second massive octopus creature appeared from a portal overhead, and Cara began to drool. [Gigantic calamari.]

Hawk laughed. He knew that food was the true unifying force of the world. But more importantly, every single one of these invaders was a water element beast. He couldnʼt seem to muster that same level of rage he used to feel against water, but he certainly wasnʼt going to allow the water element to take over one of his homes.

His Dark Flame Phoenix form streaked through the sky, headed for the giant octopus with Cara right behind him, and Karl turned his attention to sending his golems out to reinforce the area around the Guild House.

They had the city wall on one side, with Drodh City Guards all along it. But they were at least one Rank, and mostly two ranks, beneath the invaders.

Their attacks were minimally effective to say the least.

”Captain! Tell your men to focus on defence, and I will send Golems out the gate to secure the area.” He shouted at the demon standing in the observation post over the gate itself.

”Got it. We are trying to evacuate the area, but we canʼt do it fast enough. Jones is fighting out there as well, but I donʼt know how long his house can hold.” The Captain shouted back.

Jones was a Totem Ranked dragon, but just like the Guards, he wasnʼt going to be able to hold for long.

Karl focused his mana for a moment and grew a statue sized mana crystal that he placed at the door to the workshop area. It wasnʼt linked to anything, but it was set to pull in mana as fast as possible, so others could use it.

Then, he added a [Mana Pylon] spell to keep the barriers and defenders full of energy.

The range was enough to reach Lord Drodh, who had joined forces with Danaʼs team, while Karlʼs had left the city walls.

[This calamari is too tough.] Cara complained. She hadnʼt expected it to be an immortal creature when she went to chop off some limbs to snack on. Just her and Hawk were not enough to defeat it.

Then, more portals opened outside the Guild House gate, where Karlʼs golems were fighting. Mythic Ranked warriors charged out in a wave of bodies, followed by a Totem Ranked mage from Deveʼs Guild.

”Guild Master, what is the target?” He shouted.

”Everything Mythic Ranked and amphibious. It should all be edible enough to qualify. Send as many as you can find.” Deve called back.

”Iʼve got the portal open at the arena now. There was an announcement by the referees, and weʼve got more people coming once the spectators gather their teams.” The mage explained.

Deve smiled. That arena was working out for them in more ways than one. Theyʼd already gotten a hundred Mythic Warriors and a few other classes, and the alert had only been out for two minutes.
