"Gillian!!"
All the people in the Super Research Department were shocked.
They were very familiar with this term. The two evolvers who were almost affected last night mentioned this term, and Luna also mentioned this term in her confused state before.
It's just that although Luna is crazy, the language information she reveals is more controlled, which can show that she is under influence, and there are corpses and other words such as terrible, no, and don't want to die.
They didn't know what the word meant because it was unlike any other word and the pronunciation of the person involved was more like a combination of strange tones.
Cordel looked at the Sage of Dawn, whose face he could not see clearly, but he could feel his gaze.
Since the discovery of the Dawn Association, whether from the screening of seriously adulterated and confusing historical materials or from the people of Dawn who have come into contact with them, it can be understood how important the Dawn Sage is.
Not only Shuguang, but also relevant institutions of various countries in the World Alliance, many people would add the word "Sir" after "Sage" when addressing him to show respect.
In most cases, the Sage of Dawn will hardly appear in person, or the current situation is not yet at the point where he needs to appear.
Since he came in person, it was obvious that it would not be a simple matter. And from the words of the Sage of Dawn, it seemed that Gillian was the name of some existence.
He was about to ask something when the voice of the Sage of Dawn sounded again.
"Mr. Cordell, as a sign of respect, I would like to convey my goodwill to you first. I would also like to thank you for helping us guard the seal for half a year. With a shortage of manpower, this time is extremely precious to us."
Although Cordell was smiling, he was actually feeling a little depressed.
Shuguang must have known the true situation of the Death Maze a long time ago, but he did not tell them, allowing them to serve as free caregivers for half a year.
However, people from all countries in the World Alliance can actually understand this. Shuguang naturally has a sense of distrust towards those in power, which can be easily studied from history.
Among the limited historical materials, there are quite a lot of historical documents that discredit Dawn. In addition, in some Dawn relics that have been discovered one after another, there are murals that show those who were cruelly executed as witches and evildoers. Admiration and sympathy are the common emotions of people with conscience in all countries of the World Alliance.
Of course, as those in power and some historians, the top leaders can often understand some of the ideas of the ancient rulers by referring to the historical periods of centralized power, but this does not prevent everyone from being indignant.
Many evil people hate the villains in TV shows and movies when they watch them, let alone them who are clear-headed.
And on second thought, improving the relationship with Shuguang is the best reward.
"But next, you'd better tell your subordinates not to get too excited."
"Uh... Sage, what do you mean?"
At this moment, at a temporary outpost in front of the camp, two soldiers were guarding the blockade line on a high place, looking at the soldiers on the blockade line in the distance.
One of them had just torn off the wrapper of a piece of gum and accidentally glanced at the back of the sentry post. He immediately threw the gum away reflexively and then stood guard with his gun.
Elsewhere, an evolver from the Super Research Department was concentrating on guarding the blockade area, but suddenly he felt something and turned around with his breathing quickened.
Outposts, blockades, firing points and various observation areas, within the entire circle of the Death Maze blockade, defense soldiers and agents of the Super Research Department, both ordinary people and evolvers, gradually discovered changes in the rear.
A heavy feeling of oppression that even ordinary soldiers could clearly feel afterwards.
One, two, three...
Some special beings gradually appeared in the sight. Their steps were steady and slow, but the distance each step took was not short, and they were gradually approaching.
They were all tall and had stern looks. They seemed oblivious to the sounds of gun bolts being pulled and shouts being shouted at around them. They focused their attention on moving in the direction of the blockade zone.
Some were dressed in grey tight-fitting clothes like ancient knights, some were wearing metal armor and were simply casual clothes or formal wear, some were bare-handed, and some were dragging huge weapons.
They had different skin colors, but none of them could be seen clearly. They were not close to each other, but it felt like they occupied all the space between them.
Something called "momentum" that can often only be seen in written works is now so real and oppressing everyone's heart.
"Is this... someone from the Dawn Association?"
Many people who knew the situation were shocked and either murmured to themselves or tried to comfort others.
Afterwards, the "friendly signal" asking people to restrain themselves and not to fire came belatedly over the communication.
At the foot of the outpost, a silent knight reserve passed by, carrying a heavy war hammer on his shoulder and a huge strange spear on his waist. It was the first time for most people to observe these legendary characters so closely.
They are completely different from the evolvers in the Super Research Department, or it can be said that those evolvers are not on the same level as them at all.
There was steaming white mist all around, and the cold air of early spring was warming up noticeably. Just by taking a step forward, one could seem to feel the heaviness of one's footsteps.
…
Cordell listened to the feedback from various sources and took a few deep breaths before calming himself down.
"Sage, Dawn, how many people are here? What exactly is Gillian?"
This is a question that everyone present is eager to know.
The sage did not answer directly upon hearing the voice, but looked far away towards the blockade line of the death maze area, as if he could directly see the stern members of the association.
He looked at Cordel, and then glanced at the observers from various countries in the World Alliance.
"Gilion, the ancient demon from another world, is an ancient existence that caused great losses to Dawn in its heyday thousands of years ago. It is a terrifying nightmare beyond legend. Even the monsters from the outside world have rarely heard of it."
"The tide of darkness is approaching, and the power of the ancient seal is indeed weakened... Even though we have been prepared for this, we still have to be cautious. If the three hundred members of the association have caused any impact on you, I apologize to you here."
These words from the Sage of Dawn carry a lot of weight, making people feel pressured while also revealing several important messages.
The location of the Death Maze Zone is actually the place where Dawn sealed the terrifying monster in history, and Gillian is its name.
"Three hundred?"
Du Pepe, one of the Chinese observers, shouted subconsciously. In the Battle of Kyoto, Dawn only dispatched more than seventy people, but that was such a large-scale support for the entire city of Kyoto.
This is just the encirclement of a small village, but three hundred people were dispatched at once, even the sage himself and the powerful magic controller didn't know how many there were. It can be seen how dangerous this place is.
The reactions of the people around me were similar.
According to intelligence obtained from Germany and Italy, two Dawn members still possessed the "power to slay dragons" in a hurry, which basically gives us a glimpse of the individual combat effectiveness of the Dawn members, and these should be ordinary members.
The Dawn Sage could say that the Dawn in its heyday suffered heavy losses and could only end in the form of a seal. It is hard for ordinary people to imagine how terrifying the things inside are.
An agent from the Super Research Department took a deep breath.
"What if we launch a tactical nuclear strike directly?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiaoxia's eyebrows twitched. Can we please stop saying such scary things all the time?
He responded in a slightly humorous way.
"There were no nuclear bombs thousands of years ago, so I can't answer this question, but I hope to wait until we fail before considering this option. I don't want humans to have the opportunity to try this."
Then, for the first time, he smiled.
"Don't worry, even though we are far less powerful than before, Gillian will only be worse."
No one would use a nuclear strike unless it was absolutely necessary, so the agent only asked out of nervousness. Although the Dawn Sage's joke did not make everyone laugh due to the situation of the occasion, it did succeed in easing the atmosphere.
Having said so much, Qin Xiaoxia doesn't plan to continue talking about it anymore. It's time to get down to business.
"Then, Mr. Cordell, I hope your people can retreat further, at least away from our blockade line, to prevent being affected by the power leaked from Gillian."
After saying this, Qin Xiaoxia and Su Su disappeared from everyone's sight.
It took Cordel a while to realize that they should have gone to the front line, and then he immediately gave the order to retreat, requiring the defense soldiers to stay at least 1 kilometer away from the Dawn people.
In less than two minutes, Qin Xiaoxia and Su Su reached the inside of the blockade line, and all the Dawn members were silently preparing.
This was the first time that people in the association had encountered such a large-scale event, so everyone was actually very nervous.
The "ancient species" is a terrifying monster beyond imagination. Even though Qin Xiaoxia knew the inside story, he still brought enough people with him to create an atmosphere and show off a little, but he was also afraid that some troublesome things would be leaked.
