Saine wasn't entirely clear on the true Arcane Truth of the Azure Fire Magic system, but many of the disciples and grand-disciples of the Azure Blaze Grandmaster present were.

Many people have already shown excitement and interest, including Saine's Second Senior Uncle — Level-5 Magician, Gagaru.

"Oh? It can actually be compatible with our Azure Fire Magic. This Low-Level Plane is quite special."

"I can't wait to see what this world is really like," Master Gagaru said with a smile.

Another Fourth Senior Uncle, Pei Nasi, also seemed very interested.

However, she was more concerned about another layer of meaning revealed in what her master had just said.

"Since this Poison Fire Green Flame World has already pledged allegiance to our Wizard Civilization and expressed its intention to join the Wizard Alliance, what about the Wizard Alliance itself..." Senior Sister Pei Nasi frowned slightly as she looked at her grandmaster.

"The three major forces leading this war against the Nesser Civilization are the Mamet United Alliance, the City of Steel, and the Flame Conclave, all from our Wizard Civilization."

"I have already spoken to the Flame Conclave. As long as we can compress the war to within thirty years, the Flame Conclave and the Wizard Alliance will turn a blind eye and tacitly approve of our actions," the Grandmaster explained.

Pei Nasi nodded at her grandmaster's words, but then her senior master smiled wryly and said, "Completing it within thirty years seems a bit tight."

"And we probably don't have much time to prepare, do we?" Pei Nasi asked.

Azure Blaze Grandmaster nodded and said, "That's right. The specific departure time is tentatively set for two years from now."

"Because this is a war that doesn't quite conform to the rules of the alliance, we must end it quickly."

"The Gate of Elements and other Knights' Hall are not well-suited to directly participate in this war."

"We can only rely on ourselves."

"Furthermore, for the convenience of the expedition, we can directly use the ultra-long-distance Cross-Star Territory Teleportation Array that the Flame Conclave already set up, which connects to the depths of the Nesser Star Region."

"The replenishment of subsequent resources, as well as the supply of some slave creatures, can also be accomplished through the Flame Conclave, but the cost will be relatively high," added the Azure Blaze Grandmaster.

The words of the Azure Blaze Grandmaster caused a brief silence to fall over the hall.

Saine and others, level one to

Those who are disciples or grand-disciples at the third level naturally don't have much right to interrupt.

The main ones pondering the matter were the two senior masters, Jiajialu, Peinas, and Lulianman, all of whom were at least level four.

Second Master Uncle Gagaru was the first to respond. This figure, whose physique was more like that of a knight, seemed very interested in that world of poisonous fire and green flames.

He said directly, "Our Flame Sigh Holy Tower can participate. In two years, I should be able to recruit 20,000 to 30,000 Formal Magician."

"The lack of assistance from the Knights' Hall is a problem, but I have enough slave creature legions stored Saine's side to serve as cannon fodder."

Gagaru's answer brought a smile to his master's face.

Following that, Saine's Fourth Senior Uncle Pei Nasi, also stated, "The number of Formal Magician I can Saine's side is not as many as my senior brother's; at most, it's only a little over ten thousand."

"As for the slave creature army, I just finished conquering a Low-Level Plane with some friends, and the slave creatures suffered heavy losses, so I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Although Master Pei Nasi explained her difficulties, her attitude undoubtedly indicated her agreement to participate in this Alien Plane invasion war.

Next, only Saine's mentor Luluman, was left to make a statement.

Unlike the "generosity" of his two senior brothers and sisters.

Luluman, who had only been promoted to the fourth level for less than a thousand years and Holy Tower had only been established for a little over two hundred years, had a slightly flushed face.

Of course, only Saine, who was closest to Luluman, could clearly see the subtle changes in her expression.

The other Mage present could roughly see Luluman's appearance, but they couldn't get a closer look.

This is due to the powerful aura possessed by organisms at level four and above.

Even though they tried their best to conceal their aura, they were still unapproachable and great beings to low-level creatures below level four.

For example, when Saine looked at her master, Cuilisi, her impression of her master was a slowly burning blue flame.

Second Master Uncle Gagaru was a ball of intensely hot crimson flames, while Fourth Master Uncle Penas was also surrounded by flames, but seemed to have some additional earth and light elements.

The first impression that mentor Luluman usually gives people is that of green leaves and vines.

Saine did not detect any significant fluctuations in Elemental Power from her.

That's peculiar.

Not only did Saine notice the change in his mentor Luluman's expression, but the two senior masters and the grandmaster in the main seat above also saw it.

After all, they are strong at the same level, and they have known each other for at least several thousand years.

Second Master Uncle Jiajialu grinned and asked, "Is Junior Sister in some kind of trouble? Tell your senior brother, and he'll take care of you!"

"Junior Sister has only established the Holy Tower for a little over two hundred years, and her foundation in various aspects is still relatively shallow. This is also Junior Sister's first time participating in the Alien Plane invasion war as the Holy Tower Master, so it is only right that the two of us help her out," Fourth Senior Uncle Pei Nasi, said at the right time.

The words of her two senior masters made Luluman's face blush even more.

However, Saine's mentor then pretended to be calm and said, "Our Azure Source Holy Tower should be able to gather five hundred Formal-Ranked Magician this time."

"As for slave creatures... my World Laboratory Saine's side has cultivated about 200,000 Plant Creature that can be used."

Compared to the "arrogance" of the first two senior masters, the Azure Source Holy Tower where Saine was located did indeed seem a bit "petty".

There's nothing that can be done about it. Holy Tower that's only been built for two hundred years can't possibly compare to those ancient Holy Tower that have stood for tens of thousands of years.

Furthermore, as a newly promoted Level-4 Magician and the Holy Tower Master, Luluman already owed the Wizard Alliance a large amount of Magic Coin when she built the Azure Source Holy Tower.

To date, there is still no way to repay this huge loan in Magic Coin.

Although the Wizard Alliance approves Magic Coin loans for every newly appointed Holy Tower Master with extremely low interest rates and extremely long repayment periods.

However, as a forward-thinking and wise Mage, he would still consider the relevant issues.

In recent years, besides devoting her energy to Experimental Research, Luluman has devoted much of her attention to the infrastructure construction of the Holy Tower.

They haven't even finished paying off the Magic Coin they borrowed from the Wizard Alliance, so how could they possibly have extra assets to stockpile a legion of slave creatures?

More importantly, Luluman does not have her own enslaved and occupied planes, so naturally she does not have a place to raise slave creatures.

This attack on the Poison Fire Green Flame World was also the first time that Luluman participated in Plane War as the Holy Tower Master.
