Chapter Summaries

Saine traveled through the Fire Kite Mountain Range as the Wizard World’s invasion brought down two Gorilla Gods. The Fire Velvet Gorilla God’s self-detonation devastated the range’s eastern region after Mo Yan and other powerful beings diverted the falling meteor, while Saine watched from the retreating Space Fortress.

• Saine met Knight Cindy, who told him she had seen Nataya and the others northwest, then continued north with his Plant Legion and Kingfisher.
• A yellow meteor struck west of the Fire Kite Mountain Range, killing a Level-4 Gorilla God; Luluenman, Fenrir, and the White Feather Pelican dealt with the remains while Luluenman stabilized the region.
• Two months later, Saine watched from the Fortress of Azure Origin as the Level-5 Fire Velvet Gorilla God sent a giant flaming meteor toward the range’s main peak, prompting the Wizard World forces to evacuate.
• Mo Yan and several other powerful beings diverted the meteor away from the main peak, but it struck the eastern range and triggered eruptions that engulfed a third of the Fire Kite Mountain Range.
• Rain fell near the main peak as water sprayed into the sky by Mo Yan met the range’s geothermal heat, producing thick clouds of vapor.

As the Wizard World’s initial war against the Wild Gorilla World neared its end, its True Spirit Dominators considered sending more legions while assessing the returning Wild Ape God and the threat of the Galente Federation. They agreed that a full-scale war with the Federation was unlikely soon, but warned it might covertly support the gorillas.

• Baer proposed sending the second and third waves of Combat Legions to reduce losses and pressure the Wild Ape God and nearby civilizations, and Saneseus approved.
• Claire showed the Dominators a sealed Level-4 Gorilla God specimen sent by Cuilisi, prompting them to compare the gorilla race with a vanished civilization.
• Sethy judged the gorillas inferior in their pursuit of strength, and the other Dominators largely agreed.
• Haishan raised concerns that the Galente Federation might respond to the Wizard World’s campaign, but Befu said the Federation was not ready for full-scale war.
• Alice warned that the Galente Federation could still covertly support the Wild Gorilla World.

The Wild Ape God received a representative of the Galente Federation, who offered an alliance against the Wizard Civilization. The chapter ended with the Wild Ape God learning that the Wizard Civilization possessed tens of thousands of powerful fighters.

• The Wild Ape God heard that eleven Gorilla Gods, including two Level-5 Gorilla Gods, had fallen in less than a year.
• The Wild Ape God questioned a metal robot about whether the Overlord Tiger and Purple Dragon King intended to help him, and learned that neither planned to intervene.
• The robot revealed that Blue Purple Star had allied with the aliens invading the Wild Ape God's Mother Plane.
• The Wild Ape God asked who the robot represented, and it declared that it represented the Galente Federation, a Top-Level Civilization.
• The robot warned that the Wizard Civilization had tens of thousands of powerful fighters, making the Wild Ape God's pupils contract.

After a year of war, the Wild Gorilla World’s forces fortified their borders while the Wizard World paused its advance and awaited reinforcements. Saine and Luluenman’s alliance with O’Neal brought them major spoils, including the divine fire of the Fire Velvet Gorilla God, which Luluenman showed Saine.

• The Wild Gorilla legions retreated and built defensive lines as more powerful Wild Gorillas appeared, while the Wizard World’s army slowed its offensive and prepared for further combat legions to arrive.
• The Wizard World’s forces had killed eleven Gorilla Gods in the Wild Gorilla World, while two heavily injured knights had withdrawn from the war and O’Neal continued fighting.
• Azure Source Holy Tower and the Fire Melt Mountain Knights’ Hall discovered that the Fire Kite Mountain Range held mineral resources worth at least two million Magic Coins, with further wealth in spoils, corpses, and potential slave creatures.
• O’Neal urged Luluenman to continue cooperating, and she gave him a Life Potion while explaining that their alliance helped secure the divine fire Saine needed.
• Luluenman revealed the Fire Velvet Gorilla God’s divine fire, and Saine fixed his attention on it.

Saine's attempt to fuse several kinds of flame failed repeatedly, and he realized that the divine fire contained law-related factors beyond his ability to investigate. Before he could recover from the setbacks or seek Luluenman's guidance, Irene informed him that the Azure Source Holy Tower had issued a full-member war mobilization order.

• Saine returned to his laboratory after speaking with Luluenman and began researching how to fuse different flames.
• Luluenman warned Saine that the divine fire contained law factors that could make his research difficult, but Saine remained confident in his approach.
• Saine tested the fusion of four flames, and the experiment exploded, wrecking his laboratory and knocking him away.
• Saine concluded that the divine fire's mysterious factors caused the conflict and decided to keep working without asking Luluenman for help.
• Irene contacted Saine and told him that the Azure Source Holy Tower had issued a full-member War Mobilization Order and assigned another combat mission.

Saine joined the Azure Source Holy Tower’s forces as they prepared to attack a fortress defense line in Wild Gorilla World. The Battle Order assigned him to help the Fire Melt Mountain Knights’ Hall break through the front, while the main Wizard World force advanced toward the plane’s central heartland.

• Saine learned that Pinas’s Off-Ground Light Flame Holy Tower was assigned to the right flank of his unit’s battle line.
• The Battle Order assigned Serena to logistics, Irene to long-range support, and Saine to help the knights break through the enemy’s front line.

Saine joined the Wizard World’s assault on the Wild Gorilla World, where the gorillas’ newly built steel defenses and long-range weapons made the frontline unusually fierce. As the Wizard World’s legions advanced, Saine led an elite force of Azure Source Holy Tower magicians toward the enemy defenses.

• Saine entered the battlefield and saw the Wild Gorilla Legion’s steel Great Wall and energy weapons trading fire with the Wizard World’s fortresses.
• The Azure Source Holy Tower magicians overwhelmed the gorillas’ long-range fire with coordinated magic, and the Wizard World ordered an all-out assault.

• Saine urged the Spiked Green Mushroom King forward as he and nearly two thousand elite Holy Tower magicians prepared to strike the Wild Gorilla defenses at close range.

Saine advanced toward the Wild Gorilla Legion’s steel defenses and discovered that its smaller troops had begun using new weapons that greatly increased their battlefield power. He left the aerial battle’s unknown dangers unresolved as the Spiked Green Mushroom King continued forward behind Wizard World forces.

• Saine rode the Spiked Green Mushroom King through the battlefield toward the Wild Gorilla frontline, while Tourmaline remained away from the war under the protection of Mo Yan and others.
• Saine observed the scarred steel defensive line and saw a small Wild Gorilla or Sub-Ape use a metal box to fire numerous energy beams, killing charging Black Qi Dwarf slaves before it was crushed by Wizard World attacks.
• Saine concluded that the Wild Gorilla Legion’s new weapons could greatly strengthen even its weakest troops and make the Wizard World pay a heavy price.
• Saine looked toward the obscured aerial battlefield but did not dare enter it, while the Spiked Green Mushroom King advanced cautiously behind friendly forces.

Sein and the Wizard World legions advanced against the Wild Gorilla Legion, which unveiled powerful black-sphere cannons that devastated the battlefield. As Wizard World experts counterattacked, a hidden energy beam struck Flood Dragon Mo Yan and sent him crashing toward the ground.

• A Level-5 Gorilla God ordered the Metal Frontline's robots to fire their limited Dwarf Bullets and prepare secret weapons.
• Sein fought near the Metal Frontline with the Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher, then fled when the Wild Gorilla Legion fired black spheres.
• The explosions killed vast numbers of Wizard World forces and nearly killed Sein, whose companions helped protect him.
• Flood Dragon Mo Yan and other Wizard World experts attacked the Metal Frontline, prompting three Gorilla Gods to appear.
• A light blue Energy Beam pursued Mo Yan despite his attempt to evade it, struck him, and sent his body plummeting from the sky.

The Wizard World Legion counterattacked after the Wild Gorilla Legion’s weapons caused massive losses and knocked Mo Yan from the sky. As Luluenman prepared a forbidden spell and the fighting intensified, Saine heard from Lina that she needed to withdraw and recuperate.

• White Feather Pelican and Giant Squid King rushed toward the fallen Mo Yan, while Milena, O'Neal, and Fenrir engaged the three Ape Gods.
• Milena’s meteor shower struck the Metal Frontline, and O'Neal blasted a breach over seven hundred meters wide through the Wild Gorilla defenses.
• Luluenman ordered the Azure Source Holy Tower’s Space Fortress to fire its main cannon and secondary cannons, while O'Neal sent the Fire Melt Mountain Knights' Hall’s fortress and other artillery to the front.
• Luluenman began chanting a forbidden spell aimed at the Wild Gorilla Legion, forcing the Demigod-level Creatures in the sky to descend.
• Lina told Saine through the Crystal Ball that she needed to withdraw from the battle, and Saine urged her to return and recuperate.

After the Wild Gorilla Legion’s Dwarf Bullet barrage devastated the Wizard World forces, Luluenman’s forbidden spell and the Space Fortresses’ firepower destroyed much of the enemy’s Metal Frontline. Saine then led the Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher into the charge, racing to join the attack before the fighting was over.

• Saine received Lina’s message and worried about her severe injuries while sensing explosions in neighboring war zones.
• Luluenman began casting a powerful forbidden spell as O'Neal, White Tiger Milena, and Fenrir held back the Wild Gorilla World’s Ape Gods.
• The Wizard World’s cannon-fodder slaves charged the Metal Frontline while Luluenman’s spell built for thirty hourglasses.
• Two Space Fortresses, Light Prism Fortresses, and War Airships joined the attack, and their firepower destroyed much of the Metal Frontline and the Wild Gorilla Legion behind it.
• Saine called for the Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher to charge as the Fire Melt Mountain Knights and other forces rushed forward.

Saine arrived at the ruined Metal Frontline and used his Blue Fire to melt through a Wild Gorilla fortress, discovering a powerful use for the flame. As he examined the opening, a powerful Wild Gorilla attacked him from within.

• Saine reached the battlefield and saw the Wild Gorilla Legion defending a battered Metal Fortress.

• A powerful Wild Gorilla swung a broadsword at Saine from the darkness as another attacker stabbed toward his waist.

Saine fought off Wild Gorillas attacking the Metal Fortress with help from the Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher, then discovered the fortress held valuable Energy Crystals. After the battle, he claimed the largest share of the spoils and ordered his allies to retrieve a specimen and a piece of the fortress alloy for study.

• Saine blocked a Level-3 Wild Gorilla’s attack and knocked aside a second attacker with his Alchemy Heavy Hammer as the Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher joined the fight.
• Saine discovered that the giant rhinoceros beside him was a Wizard World knight, likely a Level-3 Sky Knight, and told him he was an alchemist.
• The Spiked Green Mushroom King and Kingfisher defeated the Wild Gorillas inside the Metal Fortress, killing many and forcing others to surrender.
• The Wizard World fighters gave Saine the largest share of the spoils because his two Demigod-level allies had handled much of the fighting.
• Saine opened a metal chest filled with Energy Crystals and learned that more chests were stored inside the fortress.
• Saine told the Spiked Green Mushroom King to preserve the heart of the Level-3 Wild Gorilla specimen and bring him a piece of the fortress alloy for study.

Saine helped the Wizard World forces win the Metal Frontline battle, then learned the Azure Source Holy Tower had suffered heavy losses. After returning to the Space Fortress, Luluenman took him to visit his injured senior uncle, Pinas.

• Saine led the Wizard World legions in destroying Metal Fortresses and collected Energy Crystals and Wild Gorilla remains.
• After thirteen days of fighting and pursuit, Saine left the battlefield with Kingfisher while the Spiked Green Mushroom King continued the attack.
• Saine learned that 1,327 Azure Source Holy Tower magicians had lost their vital signs, and Archimedes had prevented Luluenman from wasting more than two hundred thousand Magic Coins on cannon fire.
• Wizard World forces won across the Wild Gorilla World front, inflicting enormous losses and permanently killing twenty-one Gorilla Gods.
• Luluenman told Saine that Pinas had been injured by a blue beam and brought him to visit their senior uncle.

Saine learned that Luluenman’s battlefield forbidden spell, Blazing Sun Core Detonation, was based on Plant Element magic and gained advice about broadening his magical studies. When Luluenman and Saine arrived to visit Pinas, they discovered Pinas in private with the Green Grain Knights' Hall Master, and Luluenman’s arrival interrupted their intimate moment.

• Luluenman explained to Saine that Blazing Sun Core Detonation used specially cultivated seeds and was a Plant Element forbidden spell.
• Luluenman advised Saine to study other schools of magic and explained that Third-Level Great Magicians were valued for their extensive knowledge.

• A visitation message announced Luluenman's arrival and interrupted Pinas and the Green Grain Knights' Hall Master's intimate moment.

Saine and Luluenman visited Pinas in her aging Space Fortress, where Luluenman examined her injuries from the Wild Gorilla Legion’s paralysis ray. Afterward, Luluenman explained how Lady Beleka and the Green Grain Knights’ Hall had joined forces with Pinas’s Off-Ground Light Flame Holy Tower.

• Luluenman told Saine that Lady Beleka had chosen to establish her Knights’ Hall in the Hotfire Zone despite its poor fit for her Plant Element abilities.

After the Azure Source Holy Tower’s losses, Saine checked on Lina and resumed his experiments. Giant Mermaid Bai Xing arrived in the Wild Gorilla World with a powerful Sea Folk army, giving the Sea Folk a chance to share in the war’s spoils.

• Luluenman oversaw the Azure Source Holy Tower’s postwar affairs and reflected on its heavy losses from the Wild Gorilla Legion’s Dwarf Bullets.

• Saine returned to his laboratory, energized by new ideas about wielding Flame Power after activating Blue Fire.
• Bai Xing arrived in the Wild Gorilla World with fifty thousand Sea King Class creatures and several million elite Sea Folk.
• Cuilisi explained that the Flood Dragon’s injury gave the Sea Folk a legitimate reason to join the struggle for the Medium Plane’s profits.

Bai Xing's sea folk reinforcements joined the Azure Source Holy Tower army as it advanced on Misailius, a major Wild Gorilla World city defended by two Gorilla Gods. The Blue-Purple Space Fortress opened the assault with its main cannon.

• Mermaid King Avril's efforts had expanded the sea folk's influence, and nearly thirty percent of the troops Bai Xing brought came from the Sea Emperor Guard.
• Bai Xing's several million sea folk troops arrived and replenished the Azure Source Holy Tower army's losses.

The Sea Folk Legion led the assault on Misailius City, breaking its defenses and taking the city with little resistance while Saine and the Wizard World legions watched. The two Gorilla Gods escaped, and the Sea Folk began securing the city and its resources.

• Bai Xing's newest Space Fortress fired its main cannon at Misailius City, earning the Sea Folk goodwill from the Azure Source Holy Tower and the Fire Melt Mountain Knights' Hall.
• The cannon shattered the city's faith-powered barrier, and the Sea Folk Legion charged with Sea King Class warriors, giant sea turtles, and colossal squids.
• The Sea Folk army broke through Misailius City within three days as the two Level-4 Gorilla Gods abandoned their legions and fled.
• The Sea Folk took control of the city, imposed a curfew, and recovered war reserves while sparing most native creatures who no longer resisted.
• After watching the attack, Luluenman praised the Sea Folk's battlefield skill, and O'Neal wondered whether there would be enough meat broth for them.

Saine and the Wizard Civilization forces advanced north through the Wild Gorilla World, while the Sea Folk and Magic Beast Army grew eager to continue fighting after receiving a share of the spoils. At the Temuera Snow Mountain Range, hostile native gorillas threatened the advance, and Saine was dispatched alone on a reconnaissance mission.

• Saine received Energy Crystals and Task Points from the spoils of Misailius City, while the Sea Folk and Magic Beast Army renewed their fighting spirit.
• Mo Yan wanted to bring in more Magic Beast Army troops, but Bai Xing and Luluenman persuaded him that the allied forces already had enough reinforcements coming.
• The Wizard Civilization Legion advanced north, and Saine used the quiet period to complete his experiments as the forces moved toward colder terrain.
• At the Temuera Snow Mountain Range, scouts reported many hostile native gorillas, and Saine received orders to inspect twenty-two coordinate nodes and place Eyes of Surveillance.
• Saine left Kingfisher behind to avoid exposing its Demigod-level power and prepared to undertake the reconnaissance alone with Green Source Seeds from Luluenman.
