Chapter 471 The Only Choice

The rose-gold wings flickered at an absolutely constant frequency, and Crown flew in the air like a nimble bird.

As the sun sets, the mountain breeze caresses the wings, and the sun disk on the wings reflects an orange-red light.

His face was solemn. He had indeed gained a lot of benefits from taking the initiative this time, but the enemy's lair was not found, and he needed to be wary of the enemy's attacks in the future.

The hounds of Tindalos master the laws of time. Theoretically, silver-level transcendents would not be their opponents at all. It is unknown how much hidden danger the two escaped hounds will pose.

The law of time is different from natural laws such as fire, ice, and the sun. It is a special law. If you want to interfere with time, your understanding of natural laws must reach a level close to that of a god.

In other words, only ordinary transcendents at the top of the sixth level are qualified to compete with the hounds of Tindalos.

In addition, there are two unanswered questions in Clown's mind: why did the enemy at the Stigmata level not release the Stigmata attack until his death, and whether the hound and the evil god are connected. These make him alert.

He himself was not afraid, but he was afraid that the enemy would "sneak into his home" while he was away, which would be very troublesome.

There was no hope for the Fire Cube, and he had no idea whether the Fire Dragon and Silver Dragon could fight against the Hound. He had no idea.

He wondered if he could temporarily attach the power of the Hourglass to the creation of the Fire Cube, so that he could deal with the hounds of Tindalos.

Time always passes quickly when one is thinking seriously. When Crown came to his senses, he had already arrived at Zak Town.

He descended from the sky, found the highest-ranking commander here, and said:

"Melissa has a mission back to Shattrath City. Now you will take over the defense here. What's your name?"

"My name is Aiden Pitt, Duke."

Pete's face was full of excitement. He had never been in such close contact with the Duke before.

In the hearts of every Silver Dawn member, the Duke's status is comparable to that of a god!

Clown took out a diamond pendant from his space ring and handed it to the other party, nodding slightly and saying:

“I give you this rare item. With it, you can resist several sixth-level attacks.

In the next period of time, you must do your job well and closely monitor any unusual movements in the Andes Mountains.

I wiped out the invading enemy, but several high-level transcendents escaped. We are not sure whether the enemy is seriously injured, and we cannot rule out the possibility that they will send troops to attack us again."

The soldiers stationed here would have no chance of resistance if faced with the attack of the Hounds of Tindalos, but abandoning this outpost was also impossible, as it was the eye of the Dukedom in the north.

If the soldiers at the outpost died, the territory would give their families generous compensation, and Melissa was sent back to Shattrath because she was on the verge of advancing to silver.

The Vajra Pendant is used to defend against attacks from the law of time, but it will not be very effective. Klauen's goal is that if he encounters an attack by hounds here, the Vajra Pendant can buy some time for Aiden to pass on the information. Aiden is also the owner of a Golden Light Dao Seed.

"It is our honor to serve the Duke!"

Aiden said enthusiastically, rubbing his hands against the seam of his pants a few times, then taking the Diamond Pendant with both hands.

Clown patted his shoulder and encouraged him:

"Work hard. The Duke will not mistreat anyone who works diligently."

"Please rest assured, Duke!" Aiden stood at attention and placed his right fist on his chest.

After leaving Zak Town, Crown flew at full speed and returned to Moya Castle in just half an hour.

At this time, the last ray of sunlight was submerged in the gray fog, and a soft silver light rose from the city of Shattrath, illuminating the dark sky.

The colors of the wings were so dazzling that everyone in the castle knew that the Duke had returned.

Clown returned to the bedroom to change clothes. Eliza came in and asked with concern:

"You're back, are you okay?"

Clown showed off the stigmata on the back of his hand with exaggerated movements: "Of course not, I am a god."

The two hugged each other and went to the restaurant together.

After dinner, the two came to the study. After Eliza waved away each other's servants, she poured two glasses of moonlight wine herself and handed one to her husband.

Crown took a sip, closed his eyes slightly and smacked his lips in intoxication. The wine had become clear and refreshing after years of settling, and it was particularly comfortable to drink.

Eliza waited until he opened his eyes and spoke softly:

“After being nourished by the magic circle and improved in varieties, the yield of silverleaf grass has increased significantly, and the output of moonshine wine has become very considerable.

In addition, the various herbs added during the brewing process make the wine contain rich energy, and moonshine can be stored as food."

She raised the wine glass in her hand and said proudly, "The energy contained in this glass of wine we are drinking is no less than that of a bottle of Holy Water Zero."

"Very good," Crown drank the wine in his glass and laughed three times.

He paused and continued:

"During the few days I was away, has the outside world sent back any noteworthy intelligence?"

My wife didn't contact me using the Dao Seed, so there must be nothing urgent happening.

"There are quite a few, mainly four things," Eliza's face turned serious when talking about the intelligence.

She put down her wine glass and began to talk with her hands counting the treasures: "The first thing is that the fire zombies and green-skinned orcs that spread from the city of Blaise have spread across the kingdom like locusts. In just half a month, one more parish has been conquered.

Wherever they passed, no grass grew, and all plants and insects died in the fel flames.

According to the intelligence analysis sent back by other parishes, these fire zombies are constantly evolving, their resistance to fire is stronger, and the attack power of the law of fire has also become stronger.

I am worried that at this rate of expansion, more than half of the dioceses in the kingdom will fall within half a year.

The most terrifying thing is that every conquered parish provides them with assistance in breeding flesh and blood alchemy orcs.

The war has not depleted the enemy's strength, and we are also facing the threat of war."

"The second thing is that the news of the destruction of the city of Bray has begun to spread to various dioceses. As the panic in the kingdom spreads, the number of humans contaminated by the evil god in the surviving dioceses continues to increase.

I suspect that the news was actively spread by some evil gods in order to undermine the will of mankind.

In addition, as the war continued to expand, more and more believers began to relocate, and the city of Shattrath welcomed several waves of refugees.

We are currently facing a massive housing shortage, but the good news is that we have ample food reserves and will not be short of food for the time being.

When more and more Moon Soul Spirit Light Arrays are built, we will have more land to cultivate, which should be able to solve the food problem for most people."

“Third, the three countries of Ribia, Talon, and Namiia are also caught up in war. The situation they are facing is similar to that of Farouk. Various deformed monsters are spreading, and the domestic parties are unable to cooperate sincerely. In addition, the minions of the evil god are secretly fanning the flames.

Except for the Kingdom of Budamia and the Kingdom of Arathi, the continent has been in chaos."

"Fourth, Purinton and Eunice have been writing to me frequently, requesting more magic circle quotas. How are you going to respond?"

Klauen clenched his fist slightly, his fingers creaking. After thinking for a while, he asked:

"Are the materials supplied by their two families sufficient?"

Eliza nodded slightly and said solemnly, “It’s sufficient. It seems that everyone is aware of the danger.

Purinton wrote to tell me that the mines controlled by the McLean family are being mined at all costs.

He was worried that things might change and he wouldn't be able to provide us with a stable supply of ore."

Clown's mind raced, and he finally made up his mind: "From now on, every two months, I will give two sets of Moon Spirit Light Arrays to each of the two families.

When the prototype of Shattrath is completed, send out more arrays to support the enemy. Budamia cannot be in chaos."

The continent is in the midst of war. If the Kingdom of Budamia and the Kingdom of Arathi also fall into war, the entire human world will inevitably be forced into a situation where each fights for itself.

Such soil is most likely to breed the minions of evil.

"I see. I'll write back to Plimpton and the others later."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Eliza responded, but hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong? Any tricky problem?"

Eliza tried to keep her tone calm and said:

"That's not the case. The day you left the castle, Del performed the sublimation ceremony, but failed at the last moment.

After Janice learned the news, she applied to come back from Lorente Town, and I approved it and she returned last night. "

Crown was silent for a moment, then said softly:

"What's Del's specific situation?"

"He looks much older now, with gray hair on his temples. His condition is not much better than that of Leah in the past."

Eliza paused and sighed: "Del was originally just a blacksmith from an ordinary farmer's family. When he was young, his nutrition was seriously insufficient. In addition, he had been doing heavy physical work. Although the visualization method is magical, it cannot reverse time and make up for the deficit accumulated over the years.

On the day when Del reached the Silver Rank, Leah's life also came to an end."

The past flashed through Clown's mind, and he sighed, "Send another group of people to garrison Lorente Town, and let Janice spend more time with Del."

Del is only in his forties today. If he doesn't break through to the silver realm, he should be able to live peacefully for many years. He wonders if his expectations have harmed the other party.

He felt sad that this follower who had originally been with him had entered old age prematurely.

Crown lowered his head and remained silent. He wondered how many of the people around him would still be around in ten years, a hundred years, or a thousand years.

As a god, his lifespan is extremely long. I wonder if his heart has become numb after seeing so many lives and deaths.

Sensing that her husband was feeling a little down, Eliza held him up and kissed him gently on the forehead, then took out a pen and paper and leaned over the table to write a letter.

After a while, Crown dispelled the sadness in his heart. Seeing his wife busy, he took out a pen and paper and began to ponder the feasibility of temporarily attaching the power of the hourglass to other objects.

One by one, the prototypes of theories that have never appeared in this world flow from his pen.

In the city of Firestone, in the province of Leihart, Hatfield Manor was a busy scene as servants were packing valuable items into boxes.

In the study on the top floor of the main castle, Luther lifted the curtains and overlooked the ancient manor that carried the glory of the Saxon family, and sadness flowed like a river.

Flame zombies spread across the kingdom, and the church's army was losing ground.

There is no way. Whether it is the breathing method of the Crusaders or the meditation method of the priests, they are all training the law of fire.

Their attacks hit the fire zombies and had less than half the effect they normally had.

Now, a large army of fire zombies is gathering sixty kilometers outside the manor. If they don't leave in time, the Saxon family's remaining population will probably be reduced again.

But is there any pure land in the world? How long can the areas without war last? Luther didn't dare to think about it. Every time he thought about it, he felt like he was about to suffocate.

He was almost certain that his ancestors would never be able to return to this world. Without gods ruling over the kingdom, was there any future for it?

Without the protection of their ancestors, could the Saxon family still maintain its current status? Thinking of the problems facing the family, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Due to the shocking changes in the city of Bligh, the family lost too many high-level extraordinary people, and its strength declined from a top family to a family at the bottom of the first-rate. The blow it suffered was indeed huge.

Putting down the curtain in his hand, Luther sat down on the chair dejectedly, took out a letter from his son Wellington, and read it carefully.

After he returned to Hatfield Manor a few days ago, he immediately sent his trusted descendants to various places to conduct investigations, hoping to find a new place to settle down.

After the capture of Porto Souza, the situation in the kingdom became increasingly deteriorating, and it was not easy to find a safe place.

The family members fed back their findings, and after a complex comprehensive evaluation, he found that the city of Hamers in the Rhine Parish best met the requirements.

What was worrying him now was that it was the territory of the Duke of the North. Would the other party tolerate a powerful foreign force entering? To be fair, if he were the decision maker, he would never agree.

He knew the situation of the Moya family very well. The Duchess had not given birth to any children yet. The Duke would certainly not like a large family to seek refuge with him, because outsiders might undermine the Moya family.

Wellington highly praised the magic circle in Moya Castle. He described in detail the function of the magic circle and the plan of the Duke of the North in the letter. The other party actually wanted to build a city of holy light that could fight against the evil god.

"Boom, boom, boom"

There was a knock on the door, breaking the depressing atmosphere in the room.

"Come in," Luther put down the letter and pressed his hand to his temple.

After receiving the promise, a servant walked into the house and said:

"Your Highness, all the items that can be taken away have been packed and put into the airship. We are ready to set off at any time."

"Notify them to count the number of people after lunch and then set off."

The letter in Luther's hand suddenly caught fire and soon turned into ashes.

He has made his decision and is ready to go to Shattrath.

Because the only place in the kingdom that can accommodate so many members of the Saxon family is Shattrath.

He had no choice but to hope that his family bloodline could continue safely.
