Merlin staggered and almost fell. He quickly went forward and hugged the unconscious Arthur.
With the Eye of the God of War, he could clearly see that Arthur's spirit and soul had suffered some trauma.
Merlin anxiously asked Selene: "Why did Arthur faint?"
Selene sighed helplessly and said, "His soul is not strong enough. If a normal person were suddenly stuffed with the will of a god, he would have become demented. Fortunately, he is a person favored by the gods, so he is only in a coma."
Merlin asked again in confusion: "Then why am I okay?"
Selene rolled her eyes and really didn't want to explain any more. She had already said it too many times that Merlin was the soul of the upper world. If this soul power could be released actively, even gods would have to run away if they saw it.
At this time, Tinavia changed into Stacie's appearance, stood beside Merlin, and couldn't help asking, "Who was Merlin just now?"
Merlin smiled and said, "You already have the answer in your mind. The one who took over my body just now was the Moon Goddess. It's all thanks to her, otherwise we would be in danger this time."
Tinavia said worriedly: "It's not safe now. The Lord of Flesh and Blood has not been destroyed, but has escaped."
Merlin was also somewhat helpless, and asked, "What should I do? Do you still want me to hunt him down? Come on! I'm only level five now... Eh? I'm level six!"
Merlin spoke happily as he felt the fluctuations of magic power in his body.
"This is the benefit of God's descent, but your strength at the sixth level is not stable, and you still need to repair your chain on a daily basis."
Selene continued, "Don't worry. The Lord of Flesh and Blood's body has been drained of its divine blood in the previous battle. It will take several years to recover. So, we are safe for now. Besides, do you think the major races will sit idly by when something like this happens? If an ancient god, even if his true body has not descended on the Aize Continent, the Aize Federation will definitely take it very seriously."
Merlin nodded and said, "I hope so. But in a few years, with Arthur's level of perversion, he might be able to face the ancient gods directly."
Merlin was thinking this when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
He looked up and saw the Guardian of Nature carrying Stacy, Scarlett, Yuna and others and rushing towards them.
Seeing that they were safe and sound, Merlin showed a relaxed smile on his face.
Inside Chenxi College, there is a busy and orderly scene.
The soldiers and mages who were injured in the previous fierce battle were gathered here to recover.
The entire college seemed to have turned into a huge temporary hospital, which was the only place that could accommodate so many injured people.
The priests of the Church of Light shuttled among the wounded. They were dressed in white robes, with soft holy light shining in their hands. They treated the wounded carefully and cast spells to exorcise the remaining flesh and blood curse on their bodies.
The students and tutors of the college were also very busy. Some students helped to carry medical supplies, some served tea and water to the injured; the tutors assisted the medical officers in diagnosing and formulating treatment plans.
Many griffins and war horses were also receiving treatment in the open space of the academy. They were either lying or standing, with bandages wrapped around their bodies, and occasionally making a few low moans.
In a ward, Arthur lay quietly on the bed, unconscious.
He was surrounded by many priests who were concentrating on casting healing spells in the hope of waking up this heroic prince as soon as possible.
In the next room, Merlin was telling King Orinth of the Dawn Empire everything that happened next.
He did not hide the fact that he was "descended" by the Moon Goddess. After all, as the High Priest of the Moon of the Elves, he was qualified to communicate directly with the Moon Goddess. Moreover, what happened that day was so drastic that it was impossible to conceal it.
After listening to this, King Orinth said with a look of regret: "This is indeed our Dawn Empire's fault. We did not detect the conspiracy of the Ancient God Cult earlier and made a mistake in our judgment. I will definitely give the Aize Federation a satisfactory explanation and we cannot let everyone suffer this disaster in vain."
He paused, and then continued, "Originally, I contacted the Pope of the Church of Light to come to support, but unexpectedly he was stopped by another ancient god. Other teams that came to support were also blocked by the people of the Ancient God Church. I am really sorry to put you in such a dangerous situation. However, I am really grateful to you, Merlin. If it weren't for you, I don't know how bad this crisis would have worsened."
Then, King Orinth said with concern: "Just rest here and let me know if you need anything. I will be leaving first. There are still many things I need to deal with. I need to maintain the normal operation of the empire as soon as possible."
After saying that, he hurried out of the room.
Merlin lay on the hospital bed, thinking back on everything that had happened during this period, and felt that he was extremely unlucky.
He thought to himself, "I will not leave the Arcane City if I can. The outside world is too dangerous. Is it possible that I have some unlucky constitution?"
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door. Merlin responded, "Come in."
A head poked in cautiously.
Merlin looked at this person and felt that he looked familiar, so he couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
Needham Walker walked into the room somewhat stiffly, bowed slightly and said, "My name is Needham Walker, and I am..."
Merlin suddenly realized, and said, "I remember you, the student from Dawn Academy who sparred with Konan. What do you want from me?"
Needham Walker's eyes flashed with surprise, and he said, "I'm honored that you still remember me. I'm so excited."
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, then said, "Your parents are here to see you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Connor and Pete rushed into the room impatiently.
Mother Pete rushed to Merlin, hugged him tightly, and checked him carefully from head to toe, muttering, "My dear son, let me check if you are injured."
She looked at Merlin with concern and continued, "Son, don't do such dangerous things again. Don't take the initiative to cause trouble for the Ancient God Cult. It's too dangerous for you. If something happens to you, what will your mother do?"
Merlin wanted to explain himself, saying that he had never actively caused trouble for the Ancient God Cult, and that it was the Ancient God Cult that had come to him time and time again.
If the people of the Ancient God Cult knew what Merlin was thinking at this moment, they would definitely shout: Bullshit!
It's obviously you who's been chasing us like a mad dog, and we've all been hiding, okay? If we can't afford to provoke you, can't we hide from you?
But now it seems that there is no way to hide.
Pate continued, "When you have rested, my son, go back to the territory. If nothing else, go back to the Arcane City and the Arcane Academy. It will be safer for you there."
Kanna beside her nodded in agreement.
