Everything was going away, everything was disappearing. When Loran Hill came to her senses, she was standing in that small underground room again.

A slight shattering sound was heard, and the diary in her hand turned into tiny particles in the disintegration sound, and then dissipated into the air, leaving no trace.

This seems to be a measure left by Dorothy to prevent the things recorded in it from spreading endlessly.

Looking at his hands that gradually became empty, Loran Hill felt a sense of unreality, as if everything that had just happened was just a dream. Yet, it was indeed a real moment in history.

The precarious Crimson Empire, the fleet spanning the ocean, the Eastern Continent where the phoenix dances, the legendary kingdom of wizards, the legendary witch of time and space, and the truth behind the impending disaster.

After standing quietly there for a long time, Loran Hill slowly calmed down his emotions.

"Dorothy, Xuan..." She slowly recited the girl's name, recalling her wonderful and legendary life.

One of the Five Phoenixes of the Kingdom of the East, the Archon of the Mercury Dynasty, the pioneer of the magic sequence, the Great Witch of the Kingdom of Oz, the leader at the forefront of the times, and the prophet of the truth of the crisis.

No wonder she is so confident and proud.

Loran Hill shook her head slightly and slowly walked out of the room. At this time, she came to the last door.

Although there was stone and soil behind the door, she now knew how to open it.

As if imitating the action Dorothy often used in her memory, she placed her hand on the door handle and then recited silently.

"Open the door, the one you promised me has arrived."

A faint light shone through the gap in the door, and then it opened, revealing a passage extending downwards at the back.

————————

Somewhere thousands of meters underground in Mozwa, a woman in a white dress raised her head in surprise and looked above her head.

"What's wrong, sister?" Next to her was a woman in a black dress. Their clothes matched each other, like twins.

"Nothing, it seems someone opened the door I left open."

"Well, is that the guy who's late?" the woman in the black dress asked with her head tilted.

"No, the last few people we invited are already here. There is no such thing as someone being absent."

"That means an outsider has learned the secret code of the door."

"It's strange, who else would know? Even back in the Land of Oz, only Sister Dorothy knew, and she promised not to tell anyone else." said the woman in the black dress.

"Forget it, don't think about it. No matter which sage or witch comes, they can't stop us. We are going to open the door to a new world here, bringing death and innovation to this world, a world where Sister Dorothy is no longer here." The woman in the white dress stood up.

"Let's start with us." The woman in the black dress next to her also replied.

The two walked out of the room. The underground square outside was already full of people. Tall golems and elite mages wearing frost flames were all standing quietly waiting. At the end of the underground space was a giant upright ring with a diameter of nearly a hundred stories high.

A railroad track was laid from the ground, extending all the way up to the center of the ring. At the end of the track, a train loaded with the elite of the Frost Alliance was ready.

Approximately seven extraordinary Sequence 9 beings were standing quietly in the square, waiting for the final moment to arrive.
