Chapter 188: A Foreign Traveler Who Failed to Achieve Success

Danger will not spare its victims just because mortals avoid it.

It was another night with a white moon. The evil moon was only slightly darker than the white moon, and its position was slightly above the white moon.

This is a bad omen!

The dwarves and elves were still playing chess ignorantly below, the Holy Grail Knight had returned to his "VIP room", and the Oracle was walking back and forth on the third floor worriedly.

Eugen must have seen something, but Lynch thought that tonight would be a safe night at best.

The pyramid engine is a creation of the ancient saints after all. Simply using it as a cover is enough to deal with various firepower.

Lynch couldn't feel the whistling sea breeze, but he could see the rough waves around the engine.

If he turned off the soundproofing, the howling wind would surely surprise everyone who was living in comfort.

The lightning flashed across the sky as pale as the skin of a wounded person who had lost too much blood, and the thunder was also full of distress.

Le Ding raised his glass and staggered towards the window.

While drinking a carbonated drink mixed with alcohol, he leaned forward and looked down at the sea outside the window.

The Swordmaster of Hoeth hadn't relaxed like this in a long time.

The blessing of the ancient saints once again favored them and built a warm shelter for adventurers.

It was like being back in Ulthuan. No! Ulthuan was not as safe as this place.

There are countless beasts twisted by magical powers in the Annulli Mountains. The White Lion Hunter has to go up the mountain every year to regularly clean up the monsters on the mountain.

Ledin knew the terrible beasts in the Annulli Mountains.

All Asur have undergone military training. Only after the elf youths have mastered swordsmanship and longbow can they join the legion and become White Crown Archers.

After serving for decades, archers have the opportunity to join the spear legion.

As a civilian, Le Ding has experienced it all.

He served for hundreds of years before he was qualified to enter the White Tower of Hoeth.

Ledin's hometown is in the Kingdom of Safri in the inner ring of Ulthuan, which may be the safest country in the world.

But even so, Le Ding has encountered invasions by wild beasts.

Just like tonight, two hundred years ago, the evil moon was pressing down on the auspicious moon.

A manticore broke out from the mountains. It was injured and could no longer adapt to the competition in the mountains.

So the elves at the foot of the mountain became its target.

Although every elf is a qualified warrior, ordinary warriors can only close their eyes and wait for death when they encounter the invasion of monsters such as the scorpion-tailed lion.

A brave warrior would be proud to kill a manticore, but the fledgling elf had no chance of fighting against the powerful Chaos beast.

Fortunately, a great wizard happened to pass by Le Ding’s village and rescued the villagers from the beasts.

When Le Ding entered the White Tower to study, he met the great wizard again.

She has not been changed by time; nearly a hundred years have only made her more profound.

All the elves knew that the great wizard named Gloria was very strange. She was more like a rough human than an elf. She was aloof and not liked by the elves.

Ledin never forgot the favor he received that night, and swore allegiance to him after he began the path of the Sword Saint.

It was not until then that Ledin discovered that the wizard was studying knowledge related to the ratmen and had made progress that was enough to shock the White Tower.

She details the threat posed by the Skaven and documents the evidence from her travels.

If her manuscript had not been lost and Gloria's records were true, the ratmen were a more imminent threat than the demons.

Gloria was too knowledgeable and knew many secrets, but she did not go too deep into the White Tower. Ledin once thought that Gloria had pledged allegiance to the devil for the sake of knowledge.

But the facts proved the wizard's innocence. She seemed to have been born with the knowledge, and everything was attributed to Hoss's enlightenment.

After being examined in the White Tower, Gloria was allowed to meet the Phoenix King.

Sudden changes always happen unexpectedly. On the same night when the evil month was stronger than the auspicious month, the sorceress's residence caught fire unexpectedly.

At that time, the wizard was preparing to report his discovery to the Phoenix King.

Ledin rushed into the wizard's residence. He swore that he had not been careless and that no being had passed through the path he was guarding, but the facts proved his incompetence.

The mage was assassinated, and Ledin never forgot the image of her curled up, unable to hold back her tears under the effects of the poison.

He watched Gloria walk towards death in agony. No healing potion could relieve the pain. She begged and ordered Ledin to kill her.

Before his death, the great wizard repeatedly mentioned a title.

"Master of Death."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Le Ding muttered to himself and drank the light green liquid in the cup in one gulp.

Even today, Ledin, who has become a top-level swordsman, cannot forget the fire that night.

All the backup data that Gloria left in the White Tower was mysteriously lost, everything about her was erased, no Asur remembered what Gloria was researching, and all those who knew about it died in accidents.

Le Ding stroked the nearly two-meter-long scabbard of the giant sword, and his drunken mind regained clarity for a moment.

He almost lost his balance. Asur had to strike a balance between bloodthirstiness and mercy.

A spirit controlled by extreme emotions is weak.

At the top of the pyramid, Lynch could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and the hatred in his body towards the power of chaos.

The holy symbol hanging on his right hand makes the lizard man even more savage.

Chaos was spreading, and yet he sat quietly inside the safety of his hover engine.

Lynch kept reminding himself that he should allow the Chaos Enemy to fight among itself.

Although this will result in the demon that wins in the end being more powerful, facing two demons at once is a completely different concept from destroying a single demon.

The demons also know how to cooperate. If Lynch rushes into their battlefield, they will definitely put aside their prejudices and work together to destroy the servants of the ancient saints.

Fortunately, Lynch is no longer a rookie lizard man. The training of battle after battle has allowed him to gradually control his boiling cold blood.

Lynch will only let his primitive savagery run wild if a fight to the death is required.

The top priority now is to go to the mysterious island, unlock the nodes of the star map, follow the guidance of the star map as soon as possible, and find the gift of the "Lost" Ashoranka.

The full-scale war can only be launched after the secret treasure is opened.

No one hates Chaos and Fallen species more than Lynch, but he has to be rational.

The end will be in two hundred years. The sooner the lost knowledge is recovered, the more power can be accumulated.

According to the clues obtained from the ancient saint's maze, the secret treasure should contain the knowledge to repair the incubation pool, as well as more research products of the "Lost Ones".

With this knowledge, the cold-blooded can boldly reclaim the temple city, repair the giant network of spiritual veins, and push forward the grand plan without scruples.

The demons were temporarily isolated in the Chaos Realm by the "Great Vortex". Taking this opportunity, the cold-blooded species can restore the splendor of ancient times in one fell swoop.

By then, even if the "Great Vortex" dissipates, the cold-blooded species will be able to delay enough time to find a better answer to resolve the chaos.
