My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Half an hour later.

Audrey stood at the edge of the Misty Forest, away from the five mountains where the Demoness Bandit Gang’s lair had located. She stared at the collapsed peaks—it did not have the slightest hint of life. Her expression was blank.

What happened? How did it become like that?

The Demoness Bandit Gang was still there when she went back a few days ago. How could the Demoness Bandit Gang be annihilated in just a few days when she went to the Mage Guild to deal with some matters? The magical array that they had prepared for more than ten years—a Primordial Demoness projection that could summon the strength of a platinum-tier elite.

Other than the border count, who else had the strength to defeat the Primordial Demoness’ projection? Did the border count finally have enough of that bandit, so he took action on them?

“Audrey, it seems like you’ve done quite a lot in the past few years at the border.”

The astrologer stood beside Audrey and looked at her meaningfully.

Even though the mountain peak was filled with cracks and more than half of the sturdy iron chains were broken, the Primordial Demoness’ original head could still be seen on it. As the oldest and most knowledgeable mage in the kingdom, the astrologer recognized what the Primordial Demoness needed to summon the magical array.

Furthermore, the magical array had been activated.

“I sensed the aura of a platinum-tier spell here.” The astrologer sniffed and looked in a direction.

It was a pitch-black frozen pool located below the five mountains.

The black surface bubbled. There was no vegetation on either side of the cold pool. The pool was hundreds of meters in circumference, and it emitted the aura of death. No matter how many years passed, it would still not change.

“That does not smell like Sylvan’s work. It seems to be some kind of ancient magic that I am familiar with; did Sylvan research that? Perhaps there was another mage with him?

If Sylvan did not do that, then it must have been the person that he was looking for. That person must be very powerful to be able to create new magic elements that were not available in the world. It was something he had expected from a platinum-tier mage.

He had a very simple idea. He would find that mage and get information about the new magical element from him. At the same time, he could also rope the man into joining the kingdom. If the man were to refuse him, then he would have to kill him. He could not allow the new magic to flow to another country.

“Lord Astrologer, I did not do anything—”

Audrey was terrified when she heard the older man’s words.

She knew that he was a pacifist. She had killed many people to revive the Demoness Church over the years. If she angered him, then she would die at least a hundred times.

“Forget it, Audrey. You’re here because of His Majesty’s arrangements. Since His Majesty hasn’t said anything about what you’ve done, then I won’t say anything.” The astrologer waved his hand. “I can use magic to reverse time and see who destroyed that place.”

“Thank you, Lord Astrologer.”

Audrey thanked him hurriedly. She looked at the desolate mountains around her and pursed her lips tightly.

She wanted to know who had done that—she would never let that person go. The preparations that she had worked so hard for more than ten years had been destroyed just like that. No matter how good-tempered a person was, they would not be able to accept it.

After the astrologer finished speaking, he raised the staff in his hand and waved it gently.

“Mysterious and unknown stars, the light that shuttles between the past and the future. Please give me guidance to illuminate the path that is lost! Light-elemental platinum-tier magic—Time Reversal.”

As the most knowledgeable mage in the kingdom, the astrologer had mastered all six types of magic—earth, fire, water, wind, light, and darkness. That was one of the reasons other people respected him.

As the platinum-tier magic was activated, the sun dimmed and was gradually covered by shadows. A black sun covered the sky and made the world lose its light. Everything darkened, and time began to reverse rapidly.

The collapsed trees straightened again, the cracks disappeared, and the cracked mountains healed. A large number of monsters and human shadows began to appear in the sky—they looked a little blurry.

Time returned to the day when Watson fought against the demoness bandits.

After Watson snatched the Great Sin Mask, he cast the platinum-tier Deep Sea Dragon’s Breath spell. A huge black stream of water swept past and shattered the Primordial Demoness’ projection. It left a pool of water on the ground that would not disappear.

“So powerful!”

“Who was that person? He could cast such a terrifying spell. Is there such a powerful person at the border?”

The other mages and mercenaries spoke in awe.

Audrey’s expression turned a little fearful when she saw that. She could not see the person who had released the magic. She only saw that the person wore the Great Sin Mask. His body was young and tender, as if he was only a child.

She had wanted to kill that assassin, but she had given up on that thought. Even though she was a confident person, she would not dare to fight against a platinum-tier mage.

Of course, even though she could not see the spellcaster clearly, she could see the clothes that he wore—it was the same as the information she had received.

“Blackmoon Castle!”

It seemed like Blackmoon Castle had attacked first before she could provoke them. However, who was that mysterious platinum-tier mage? She did not know that Blackmoon Castle had such a powerful person.

“Audrey, you seem to know something?” The astrologer suddenly turned his head.

“Lord Astrologer, I am certain that Blackmoon Castle did this! Please help me destroy them! That is very important to me. If you are willing to help, then I will pay any price for that.”

Audrey thought that the Demoness Church’s revival was more important than anything else. Since the Blackmoon Castle had destroyed that place, they must have taken away the Great Sin Mask.

As she touched her face subconsciously, the killing intent in Audrey’s eyes grew more assertive.

“Don’t worry; I am now a little interested in Blackmoon Castle! It’s been many years since I’ve made a move, so I’ll warm up properly this time.”

The astrologer’s tone was calm. Then, with his voice, time no longer receded. The surrounding scenery returned to its original state. The cracks that had healed opened, and the trees collapsed again. The black shadow that covered the sun also disappeared—everything was only an illusion.

The only difference was that the ground where he stood had cracked open. Two giant palms rolled out from the ground, followed by a huge body that was dozens of meters tall; it had a bright gemstone in the middle and two massive drills in its hands.

That was a rock giant that was summoned by magic. It dragged the astrologer upward and roared at the sky. The earth shook, and everyone around looked at it with respect.

..

In Blackmoon Castle’s hall.

Watson was accompanied by his guards when he met the manor owners who were there to report the news—they were Jack, Morgan, Christine, and Norton.

“Young Master Watson, the people from the Mage Guild will arrive in a day. I heard that they are bringing the largest mercenary group in Monte Town with them, and they also have a big hotshot from the royal city. What should we do?”

The person who spoke was Christine—she was the first to notice the Mage Guild’s action. Perhaps it was because of her trade; she knew many people in Monte Town and was well-informed.

At that moment, she was wearing the gold-tier armor that Watson had fused last time. She did not look too panicked.

If she had not seen Watson’s strength, she might have panicked or simply cut off their connection with Blackmoon Castle. However, she knew that Watson could cast platinum-tier magic.

“Young Master Watson, if you can’t handle this, then perhaps you can ask the border count. If he is here, then the matter will be resolved quickly,” Jack said. Morgan nodded and agreed as well. “Yes, yes..”

Ask the border count?

What did that have to do with the border count?

Watson looked puzzled. He felt that the manor owners thought he had a good relationship with the border count, but he was only a dispensable pawn. Why would the count help him? Well, it was not the time to think about that. “I know. If the Mage Guild is coming, then let them come. I have already prepared the means to deal with them.”

When they attacked the Demoness Bandit Gang, Watson’s most significant gain was the magical beasts he had fused within the Misty Forest. Even if more than half of them had been killed, there were still more than a thousand silver-tier magical beasts and a few thousand bronze-tier ones left. If he were to fuse them, he could raise the Golden Flash to platinum-tier.

No matter the Mage Guild’s strength, how could they possibly match a platinum-tier magical beast?
