As the Wizards' Floating City Fleet arrived in Star River World, the wizards' homeland was completely reclaimed, and the situation on the battlefield was utterly reversed.

However, compared to the speed at which they reclaimed lost territory, the wizards' offensive was somewhat slower.

These worlds had been cultivated by the Star River Mayflies for many years, and their internal defensive facilities were extraordinarily intricate. All manner of methods emerged one after another; some worlds even contained creatures known as symbiotic mayflies.

The Star River Mayflies had directly formed symbiotic relationships with the local natives, causing the wizards to suffer even the suppression of the World Origin after entering those worlds.
