Chapter Summaries

Dickson trapped the Giant Spirit Realm’s Level 7 powerhouses in layered dreams, allowing the Wizards to seal them. Just as the Wizard Legion secured the battlefield, hidden reinforcements launched a surprise attack, leaving the landing battle unresolved.

• Dickson cast the Giant Spirit Realm’s Level 7 powerhouses into dreams, where their leader imagined defeating the Wizards and becoming the Giant Spirit Realm’s Lord of the World.

• The Wizards captured the dream-bound powerhouses while Dickson turned his attention to the Giant Spirit Realm below.
• Hidden enemies appeared around the Wizard Legion’s flanks and rear, then attacked and plunged the ground battle back into chaos.

Benjamin and the wizard squad fought off the Giant Spirit Realm’s overwhelming Servant Army and discovered that surviving high-rises were troop transport nodes feeding the invasion. After destroying the nodes and turning the tide, the squad secured the battlefield and began collecting resources as the first phase of the landing battle ended.

• Benjamin identified the endless attackers as the Servant Army, and the squad struggled to hold its ground against their numbers.
• The Level 5 Wizard ordered the squad to clear the surrounding buildings, and Benjamin’s barrage leveled the steel jungle around them.

• The Servant Army began retreating, and the Giant Spirit Realm’s forces also weakened and fell back as other wizard squads destroyed nodes across the continent.
• The Level 5 Wizard declared the area cleared, and the wizards captured remaining enemies and collected battlefield resources as the first phase ended.

Dickson searched the battlefield for the Giant Spirit Realm’s missing protagonist but found no trace of them or Korg, then ordered the wizards to establish an outpost. While patrolling for hidden threats, Benjamin discovered a man-made underground passage and sensed a fluctuation coming from inside.

• Dickson judged that the Giant Spirit Realm’s fate was unusually weak and searched the battlefield for a protagonist, but found no one and no sign of Korg.
• Dickson ordered the wizards to build an Outpost Camp, and they assembled its fortress and basic defenses.
• Benjamin finished his construction assignment and joined a patrol searching for underground threats.
• Benjamin used his investigative Rune Artifacts to find a torn, man-made passage and detected an elemental fluctuation within it.

Benjamin joined the Gray Tower team’s battle against the Giant Spirit Realm natives and helped defeat them. He safely disabled the treasure vault’s seal and opened its door, leaving its contents still unrevealed.

• Benjamin ordered the Black Giant to pry apart the metal doors, releasing a dense aura from the still-unseen vault contents.

Benjamin and three Level 3 Wizards explored a sealed vault in the Giant Spirit Realm and divided its immense wealth while copying its rare books. They left with resources and recorded knowledge, grateful to Benjamin for protecting them.

• Benjamin and the three Wizards discovered vaults of high-purity energy crystals and valuable soul crystals, along with rare materials and shelves of physical books.
• The three Wizards briefly struggled with greed, but the Black Giant's Level 5 presence deterred them from confronting Benjamin.
• Benjamin selected unusual materials and took about one-third of the energy and soul crystals before the other Wizards divided the remaining resources.
• A Wizard used a Star Ring Federation terminal to scan the books while the Black Giant crushed successive attackers and destroyed their hidden jump devices.
• The terminal finished recording the books, and the three Wizards thanked Benjamin for rescuing them and sparing their lives.

Benjamin destroyed a Giant Spirit Realm treasury, studied its books, and joined an urgent effort to develop targeted weapons against the realm’s natives. Inside the Time Law Chamber, he identified the natives’ ability to integrate other organisms’ traits and began investigating how to disrupt it.

• Benjamin stored the treasury’s books, then ordered the Black Giant to destroy the underground complex with explosions.
• Benjamin patrolled the outskirts for three days, found several minor caches, and studied manuals about the Giant Spirit Realm’s cultivation and technology.
• Benjamin received an urgent mission to develop witchcraft for annihilating Giant Spirit Realm organisms before a major counterattack expected within a month.
• The command arranged for the Star Ring Federation’s Time Law Chamber, which gave the Logistics Department wizards more than ten times as much research time.
• Benjamin examined semi-fluid Giant Spirit Realm specimens and discovered their bodies could integrate other organisms’ limbs and organs while supporting mass-produced mechanical copies.
• Benjamin suspected that disrupting the natives’ system for coordinating and translating life signals could counter their adaptability, and he began microscopic research.

Korg investigated the sudden Wizard invasion and ruled out Hira as its instigator, then decided to spend a Thousand-Soul Gold Crystal to contact a distant presence for more information. The chapter ended as that vast will descended through the activated magic array.

• Korg questioned a subordinate, learned the invaders called themselves Wizards, and ordered the Giant Spirit Realm to assemble its armies and gather intelligence.
• The subordinate blamed Hira and the Fungus Lord, while Korg vowed to capture a Wizard leader and uncover their secrets.
• Korg contacted Hira, who denied involvement and reminded it that their Contract was approaching.
• Korg resolved to investigate the Wizards more deeply and reluctantly placed a Thousand-Soul Gold Crystal into a dimensional magic array.
• After the array opened a gate of light, a vast will descended into Korg's secret chamber.

Korg paid Light Chaser a Thousand-Soul Gold Crystal to investigate the unknown Wizard Civilization, but Light Chaser found no records and promised to conduct a divination. When Light Chaser secretly probed the wizards for clues, a powerful presence detected it and spoke directly into its mind.

• Korg contacted Light Chaser and asked for detailed information about the Wizard Civilization.
• Light Chaser found no direct records of the wizards and promised to investigate through targeted divination.

• Light Chaser admitted to itself that it had prolonged the exchange to take a large deposit from Korg.
• Light Chaser used its innate talent to probe the wizards and was abruptly confronted by a presence that had noticed its intrusion.

Light Chaser's Sacred Radiance World Cluster was attacked by an immense hand, and the God of Gods failed to stop it. A young wizard captured and consumed the cluster before turning back to the ongoing battle.

• Light Chaser sensed an attack as a terrifying force shattered the Sacred Radiance World's outer barrier.
• The God of Gods summoned world-forged chains to bind the enormous hand, but it broke them effortlessly.
• The God of Gods attacked with the combined power of his civilization, yet the hand shattered his divine form and seized the world cluster.
• A young wizard withdrew his hand, compressed the Sacred Radiance World Cluster into a small sphere, and swallowed it.
• The young wizard told an accompanying wizard that he had eliminated a bug and ordered the wizard army to resume its battle.

Benjamin completed Symbiotic Disaster, a bacterial weapon that caused Giant Spirit Realm natives to over-symbiose and spread the effect to new hosts, and the Logistics Department submitted its weapons for wartime production. As the enemy legions began moving, Korg prepared for battle while growing uneasy over the Light Chaser’s silence.

• The Logistics Department wizards developed dangerous weapons against Giant Spirit Realm natives, including Balthazar’s chain-spreading Resonance Disintegration Wave.
• Benjamin discovered that excessive pheromone enzyme secretion could force a native’s symbiotic body into catastrophic over-symbiosis, but his first spell worked too slowly.
• Benjamin engineered a spreading bacterial strain that carried the Over-Symbiosis signal and named his weapon Symbiotic Disaster.
• Dickson ordered the wizards to register their results for mass production and prepare for the coming war.
• Korg failed to contact the Light Chaser again, suppressed his suspicions, and focused on deploying his assembled forces against the wizards.

Benjamin and the Wizard Civilization fought the Giant Spirit Realm’s counterattack with wizardries tailored to its forces, winning a crushing victory on both the void and internal battlefields. The Giant Spirit Realm retreated to its second line of defense as Benjamin withdrew the Great Light Manifestation.

After surviving the battle, Endi developed worsening fatigue as a mysterious plague spread through the camp, causing victims to bond with nearby matter and mutate into monsters. As the camp collapsed, Endi and his adjutant tried to flee, but they found one of Endi’s crew members infected beside the gate.

• Wizards' self-replicating war machines devoured battlefield wreckage and bodies as the Giant Spirit Realm forces retreated in disarray.
• Endi survived the bombardment, returned to camp, and later sought medical help for worsening fatigue, but the doctor dismissed it as a stress reaction and granted him leave.
• Endi traveled on civilian airships during his leave, unaware that passengers began feeling drained and drowsy after he left.
• When Endi returned, his adjutant told him a plague was causing soldiers to bond with nearby objects and twist into monstrous forms.
• As the quarantine and camp administration collapsed, Endi and his adjutant tried to escape and found one of Endi’s crew members grotesquely fused with the ground by the gate.

The Symbiotic Disaster spread through the Giant Spirit Realm as Benjamin’s wizard forces began the war’s second phase, systematically destroying cities and strongholds. Benjamin’s assault on Silverglow City succeeded, and he gathered Mortal Aura from its ruins as the invasion continued.

• Endi activated the emergency symbiosis protocol, fused with his battleship, and became part of the spreading Symbiotic Disaster.

The wizard army faced a surprise coalition of the Giant Spirit Realm and Mind Realm, prompting Dickson to order an attack while he assessed the threat. Three years earlier, Korg had sought Hira’s help against the wizards, and they had agreed to wait for two powerful allies from their contracted civilization; the chapter ended with Korg preparing for their counterattack.

• Korg contacted Hira and described the crisis, and she told him that two old allies from their Auxiliary War Contract would arrive in three years.
• Korg regained confidence, gathered his remaining forces, and prepared to join Hira and the incoming allies in a counterattack.

Korg and Hira confronted Dickson while the armies of the Wizards, Giant Spirit Realm, and Mind Realm fought across the battlefield. Korg revealed the Elemental Silence Field, which suppressed elemental magic across the Giant Spirit Realm and left the Wizards struggling to cast sorcery.

• The armies clashed, and the Wizards’ opening cannon fire inflicted heavy losses on the Giant Spirit Realm’s concentrated fleet.
• Korg and Hira demanded the Wizards surrender, but Dickson appeared and repelled them with a single attack.
• Korg summoned two Level 8 golden giant baboons, which charged toward Dickson as Korg revealed that the Coalition’s preparations were complete.
• The Mind Realm army released a vast spiritual fluctuation that disrupted the Giant Spirit Realm’s machinery and made elemental energy difficult for the Wizards to control.
• Korg explained that the Elemental Silence Field weakened sorcery while its forces could still fight, and the battlefield’s advantage shifted against the Wizards.

Dickson and Oboloth revealed that the wizards could fight effectively even when Korg’s Elemental Silence Field suppressed elemental magic. After the two Level 7 Wizards struck back and the wizard army launched its assault, the battle turned against the Giant Spirit Realm and Mind Realm coalition.

• Korg realized the Elemental Silence Field had not frightened Dickson, and Oboloth appeared to confirm that the sealing formation around the Triangle Plane Cluster was complete.
• Two golden giant baboons charged Dickson and Oboloth, but the wizards struck them down and sent them crashing through the Giant Spirit Realm’s army.
• Dickson revealed his magically enhanced physique, while Oboloth donned heavy armor, and Benjamin’s rune array continued operating using its own energy sources.
• The wizards showed that many could rely on physical enhancements, armor, mechs, or reserved energy despite the inert elements.
• Dickson attacked Korg and Hira as Oboloth descended on the baboons, and the Wizard Legion launched a full assault on the coalition.

Benjamin and the Wizard Legion fought the Giant Spirit Realm and Mind Realm armies while Dickson and Oboloth defeated their World Lords. Dickson then erased half of the Giant Spirit Realm, leaving Benjamin stunned by a Level 7 Wizard’s power.

• Benjamin pushed the [Great Light Manifestation] array to its limits, using the Five-Skandha Rainbow Mirror to coordinate its Rune Artifacts while rapidly cycling through charged energy discs.
• The Wizard Legion overwhelmed enemy forces in close combat, though Benjamin’s area attacks bore the burden of clearing large numbers of enemies.
• Dickson and Oboloth defeated Korg and Hira; Oboloth captured the two golden baboons when their teleportation runes failed.
• Dickson ordered the Wizard Legion to withdraw, and the defeated Coalition of the Giant Spirit Realm and Mind Realm fell into a rout.
• Dickson erased half of the Giant Spirit Realm with a single strike, and Benjamin realized he had witnessed the power of a Level 7 Wizard.

After Dickson destroyed most of the Giant Spirit Realm, the awakened Fungus Lord attacked the Wizard Legion, forcing Dickson and Oboloth to defend their forces. Melister fired the Ship Plane’s main cannon, annihilating the Fungus Lord and the Propagation Realm, leaving Benjamin stunned by the power of high-level wizards.

• The Wizard Legion captured the surviving Giant Spirit Realm and Mind Realm soldiers after Dickson’s attack shattered their will to resist.
• Melister warned Dickson and Oboloth that the Propagation Realm was undergoing a drastic change, and they sensed the awakening Fungus Lord.
• The Fungus Lord tore into the Giant Spirit Realm and unleashed a devastating attack, which Dickson and Oboloth struggled to contain.
• The Fungus Lord’s dispersed tentacles proved vulnerable to the Wizard Legion’s combined attacks, but its enormous main body absorbed Dickson and Oboloth’s strikes.
• Melister ordered the wizards to prepare for impact as the Ship Plane’s main cannon fired through the Fungus Lord, destroying it and the Propagation Realm.
• Benjamin watched the Fungus Lord vanish and stood speechless at the power of high-level wizards.

After the wizards defeated the Triangle Plane Cluster’s rulers, an unseen force began manipulating their thoughts and sending their fates toward disaster. Dickson recognized the danger and ordered everyone to discard their spoils, but the threat remained unexplained.

• Benjamin woke with a fragment of the Fungus Lord on his face and realized it could help him improve his Nest, but an eerie unease stopped him from studying it.
• Dickson and Oboloth confirmed the Fungus Lord’s core consciousness was destroyed and prepared to collect knowledge and samples from the conquered worlds.
• Dickson used fate perception and saw his own fate and those of the wizards plunging toward misfortune, so he ordered maximum alert and Melister sent a distress signal.
• Dickson noticed that the surviving natives’ fate values were zero and realized an unseen influence had distorted the wizards’ judgment about taking prisoners.
• Dickson burned his stored luck to deliver a command ordering everyone to throw away all spoils of war, and Benjamin discarded his fragment and other materials.
