Chapter 546: Differences of Opinion
"Most of the enemy's main forces are currently gathered in the tall tower in the center of the city. They are definitely planning some kind of conspiracy. We can't just watch the enemy achieve their goal!
If the enemy is preparing to summon some kind of evil god, then once they complete the ritual, we will lose all hope of escaping!"
Led by Brownso Enoch, the third son of the head of the Enoch family, several pro-war factions believed that the enemy should not be allowed to act, but that they should take the initiative to attack and nip the danger in the bud in advance.
"My view is exactly the opposite. I think there is no need for us to take unnecessary risks and confront the enemy head-on."
After listening to Brown Soynok's speech, the seventh prince Viller Augustine smiled slightly and spoke in a tit-for-tat manner.
"Your concern is not without reason, but it also needs to be considered in light of the actual situation. This is the Secret Realm of Glory, a secret realm flowing through the cracks of time. Each time it is opened, it is in a different time and space region.
This is completely inconsistent with the time and space stability required for the summoning ritual. The probability that the other party would come here specifically to summon the evil god is almost negligible.
Even if they succeeded in summoning the evil god, the huge commotion that occurred when the other party broke through the realm and descended would definitely not be hidden from the ninth-level extreme majesties who were watching here from the outside world. "
As he spoke, he suddenly changed the subject and pointed out a problem that no one had noticed before or was deliberately avoiding.
"Also, they do look like indiscriminate attacks, but didn't you notice? Not all of us were attacked!"
"The enemy deliberately chose some of us, including me and my brother, and we were attacked. Fortunately, the royal family's secret treasure is powerful enough, otherwise I would not be able to talk to you here now.
And as far as I know, the vast majority of those who were attacked were conservative people.
I seriously suspect that some people have colluded with them in advance and intend to use them to get rid of us and gain benefits.”
When this conjecture came out, everyone was silent. After careful consideration, although Prince Weller's words were unpleasant to hear, the possibility in the conjecture could not be ignored.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue froze. Many people exchanged glances with the people nearby, as if they wanted to confirm something.
There was one thing that everyone tacitly did not mention. Is there any hidden enemy among those present? "The enemy is already within reach, there is no need for us to be suspicious of each other at this time. Those people are undoubtedly believers of alien gods. In this completely closed secret realm, who among you dares to guarantee that those mentally ill beings will let you go?"
Seeing that this temporary alliance was already showing signs of splitting, the third princess, Starlight Augustine, had to step forward and calm everyone's emotions.
“Also, you don’t have to worry too much about the enemy’s strength, because the rules for entering the Glorious Secret Realm are rigid.
Those strange beings were able to sneak in here by disguising themselves as our companions. This means that their strength is also no more than level eight. With all of our combined strength, we are not without the ability to fight."
As for how to deal with the current conflicts in the temporary alliance, her approach is to compromise.
“As Lord Enoch said, we cannot allow the enemy to achieve their goal easily, but Lord Wheeler’s opinion also makes sense. Our safety always comes first.
How about this, could you please ask Sir Enoch to take a few volunteers to the central tower to investigate the enemy's current specific movements? Once we get the specific information, we can determine what to do.
During this time, we will set up a temporary base in the large clock tower in the distance and support you from afar.
If the enemy's actions have little impact on us, then after a few of you come back, we can hold out here for seven days and rescue other scattered survivors..."
When talking about other survivors, Princess Starlight suddenly thought of Lan Nuo's shadow and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
I don't know how my weakest ninth brother is doing now. With his hidden fifth-level strength, if he is attacked by surprise, there is almost no hope of survival.
"I agree with His Highness Xingguang's proposal!"
"I agree, let's do it."
Not knowing what the third princess was thinking, everyone thought about her proposal and felt that it was acceptable, at least better than the direct attack/defense proposal.
So, everyone split into two groups, one group went to explore the high tower in the center of the city, and the other group went to the clock tower to set up a defensive array.
At the same time, Avis's third sister Alanis had also sneaked into the city, but it was difficult to take action because of the large number of believers gathered.
Since the direction of Anvis indicated by the bloodline pointer was the tall tower in the center of the city, after noticing the actions of Brownso and the others, Alanis thought about it and decided to sneak in while they were attacking.
Soon, the opportunity she had been waiting for arrived.
As she watched from afar, Bronso and the others suddenly dispersed, their figures faded and disappeared, and they sneaked towards the tower in two directions.
If she had not marked the weakest one among them with a magic item in advance, she would probably have lost track of him by now.
After a while, a riot broke out in the area of the tower. The group of believers were suddenly attacked by a large-scale spell and several believers were killed.
But this seemed to have angered the other party. Surrounded by a dozen low-level Faceless Cultists on the ground, a huge black winged monster emitting an aura close to that of the ninth level crawled out of the tower.
It has a pterosaur-like head and three pairs of membranous wings, and its body exudes a sticky asphalt luster. It soars into the air in an anti-physical way and pounces on the attacker.
But at the same time, colorful negative magic effects directly entangled the monster. Although they were almost fleeting, they still caused some interference to it, making it unable to kill the "little bug" below instantly.
At the same time, the two of them followed the plan and consciously led the battlefield far away to facilitate their companions' reconnaissance.
What the pagans didn't realize was that while they were fighting, several shadowy figures, including Alanis and several other lone travelers, had sneaked into the tower.
The environment inside the tower at this time shocked all the intruders. At this time, the four walls of the first floor of the tower had completely lost their original rock appearance and turned into a nest of flesh and blood.
The walls were covered with disgusting flesh and blood, the air was filled with a strange smell, and sticky tentacles were wriggling in the corners of the room, mixed with a large number of dark green flesh cocoons. One part of it had broken open, and faceless low- and middle-level believers walked out of it.
Seeing this scene, Alanis' heart sank. If it weren't for the bloodline pointer still shaking, she almost thought that Avis had also been killed.
However, even if he was still alive, his fourth brother's situation would probably not be much better.
After hesitating for a moment, the blue-haired girl gritted her teeth, tightly gripped her beloved sword, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, and she carefully sneaked towards the top of the tower.
Avis, hold on, sister is here to save you! . ….….But at this time, Avis and Lannuo, who were worried about by others, had already traveled through the mirror world and arrived at the real core area of the Forgotten Tower.
"vomit--"
As a mystical spell, Mirror Realm Travel still worked successfully even in the Forgotten Tower, where space teleportation was prohibited. However, there was a small problem in the process of leaving the mirror.
"Are you all right?"
Looking at Lanno and Albins who looked bad, as well as two of Lanno's entourage who vomited without taking off their masks, Avis expressed his concern.
