Chapter 531: 531
The Final Space-Ti Flash
The capital of the Blue Wave Province, the origin of Goethe’s sea power, the first city where the Aurora Squadron landed. Its na was Distant Harbor.
The quiet and distant port city was the Goethe aning of the city’s na. The scholars of Aurora who were on board the ship took it as the official na of this city with a morable aning. It was marked on the sea charts and official docunts of the East as the official na.
This quiet and distant city also had hundreds of years of history. It had gradually prospered from a small village. It had walls, docks, and ports.
Over the countless years, she had sent off countless ships and warriors. So returned with full rewards and success, while others could never return.
She welcod the first Aurora Squadron that crossed the sea and sent off the first Goethe diplomatic mission that traveled across the ocean. She silently watched the initial contact between the two countries, the friendship they established, the exchange of needed goods, and even the final break.
She witnessed the city’s decline from prosperity. In the past, there were thousands of sails, but now, there were only a few. There was even an invasion by foreign enemies. The elven fleet’s fierce firepower and powerful soldiers attacked, and then the war ended. In the blink of an eye, danger descended again, like a joke of fate…This ti, it was even more dangerous than the last ti.
The elven fleet that had yet to withdraw, the uninvited warships of the Empire, the magic warships owned by the Arcane Magic Council, the vassals of the three world powers, and the dragons hovering in the sky.
These naval forces were enough to easily destroy the coastal defense of most countries in the world. They could even defeat the fleets of many small countries with just one of them. Now, they had intruded into Goethe’s territorial waters and approached the devastated Far Harbor. They were confronted by the dilapidated coastal defense fleet of Blue Wave Province that had yet to be fully repaired. In the previous war, they had almost been wiped out by the elven navy.
An overwhelming disadvantage.
Anyone could see that Goethe was unable to stop the invasion of the other countries.
However, although the fleets of the various countries had already approached Cold Harbor, they had only sealed off the port’s waterway. Dragons circled in the sky, and warships cruised on the surface of the sea. This was a humiliating and aggressive posture, but true hostility had never occurred. The fleets from the various factions wisely maintained extre restraint and did not do anything extre.
Because the real battlefield was not here.
The soldiers were only pressuring the city. This pressure had to be transmitted back to Lucerne through the bureaucrats and nobles of Blue Wave Province, and then to Goethe’s ruling class. From the beginning to the end, the shrewd rulers did not put Goethe in their eyes. The only person they feared was that person from Aurora.
Therefore, the strategy had already been decided.
While Kant’s whereabouts were unknown and he was unable to escape, he wanted to ensure the most basic distribution of benefits. He wanted to use intimidation and pressure from all sides to force Tedarell to agree to the distribution treaty proposed by the various countries without Kant’s presence. This would create an established fact. He would also find ways to alienate Kant from Tedarell, causing a rift between the two and planting the seeds of doubt and disagreent.
This was the minimum guarantee of benefits. It was based on the premise that Kant would be able to break free from the shackles and return to the surface soon. After all, the countries were still afraid of the might of the Forbidden Spell Mages, so they would not make things too ugly. They just wanted to create a ti gap. By then, the teams from the countries would have settled in, the treaty would have been signed, and Goethe would have reached an agreent. As an outsider, Kant could do nothing about it.
Or else? If he tore up the treaty, he would be going against the other countries. Even Goethe’s internal departnt was against him. In the face of such a situation, was he going to use a forbidden spell to smash the entire world into pieces?
Compromise was the key to this world.
History had proven more than once that in the face of power, individual strength was insignificant.
No matter who you are.
The alliance fleet that entered the territorial waters, the army that was mobilized at the border, and the pressure that Goethe induced from within Goethe through connections, economics, politics, and enticent-all the major factions cooperated tacitly.
He wanted to create a reality and take the cake before Kant could free himself.
However, this was only the minimum guarantee of benefits.
It was built on the premise that Kant would return to the surface soon.
If this Aurora citizen didn’t return, then the so-called agreent and treaty would be a piece of paper to wipe his ass. Goethe was still qualified to sit at the negotiation table because the shadow of the Aurora citizen behind Goethe was still cast on the table. If he wasn’t around…
“.. Therefore, for the benefit, safety, and enjoynt of the right of life bestowed by the gods of all races in the world, according to the decree of the Holy Emperor and the suggestions of the masters of the Arcane Magic Council, we are authorized to take necessary actions with like-minded allies to ensure that the unknown threat under Goethe’s ground does not spread. Please convey our spirit and philosophy to the governor and noble sirs.”
” We hope that Goethe will carry out his duty and stand and work with us to contain and control this unknown dangerous substance. This is also for the sake of all Goethe people. After all, we live in the sa world. We still earnestly hope for your understanding and cooperation and do not want to resort to violence. We hope that everyone can convey our sincere and friendly stand and ask Grand Duke Tedarell to make the right choice.”
The diplomatic and dignified words contained a hidden threat. This was the speech of the captain of the flagship of the Fourth Fleet of the Endless Ocean Navy of the Holy Empire, the Black Pine Forest.
He gave the envoy from Blue Wave Province proper courtesy and preferential treatnt, and personally sent him off.
After all, after arriving at Goethe’s territorial waters, the fleet commander who had been patrolling overseas for a long ti and had been isolated from the news finally found out what Kant from Aurora had done in the Broken Islands not long ago.
A single Forbidden Spell had caused a tsunami that nearly flooded the entire Broken Sea Area several dozen kiloters away.
No wonder the Seventh Fleet never ca.
First, he had scolded the admiral, and in his heart, he had beco the emperor’s wild father. But now that things had co to this, he could only bite the bullet and continue to carry out the order.
– What else? Turn around and run? Not only did he betray the country and disobey orders, but his cris were also increased. No matter what the outco was, he would not have a good ending.
Now, he finally understood the aning behind the final words of the last order.
” Commander, I can understand your worries, but with your intelligence, it’s not difficult to understand that for your fleet, the Far Port is the safest place in the world. You will understand.”
It was indeed f * cking safe! At the very least, when Kant cast the Forbidden Spell to kill us, he had to consider whether it would affect the Goethe people on the shore! How thoughtful!
He watched Goethe’s ssenger leave on the boat. His eyes were as calm as the sea. Waves were brewing in the calm. Suddenly, the adjutant quietly ca forward and whispered,” Your Excellency, it’s awake.”
The captain raised his eyebrows and turned around.
It was a dragon.
When they were cruising in the open sea of Goethe, they found an injured dragon.
He called himself Lutz and was severely injured. Before he was rescued, he held his breath and revealed important information to him. He was a mber of the missing dragon diplomatic mission. In the vast world beneath Goethe, they had discovered a mysterious substance that could promote the next magical revolution. Around this substance, they had a fierce conflict with Kant, who had followed them, resulting in heavy casualties.
Kant was able to freely control and even absorb this power. He seed to have known about the existence of this substance long ago. He had even helped Goethe because of it. Now, he was fighting with the other dragons underground. In order to stall Kant, they had absorbed this power as well. However, they were still unable to stop Kant, who was getting stronger and stronger.
Tracis and the two strongest dragons stayed underground to fight Kant. The other dragons were sent out to ask for help, and he was one of them. However, due to his severe injuries, he was unable to fly back to Dragon Island.
He said that it would be a disaster for the entire world if Kant were to gain full control of the mysterious energy. He said that Tricia had ordered them to scatter and flee, spreading the news to all civilized countries. This was the pride of the dragons. They knew when to be selfless.
After forcing himself to finish this information, the dragon Luz fell unconscious.
The Empire found a kind of purple crystal on the dragon’s body. A mage tried to guide this power after being fully ard, and his casting ability was greatly enhanced.
Report this matter to the dynasty and receive the order to advance at full speed.
The unconscious dragon was arranged to be in the most confidential area of the Black Pine Forest. The dynasty’s order was not to inform the dragons for the ti being because they needed more information.
The people of the Empire were indeed intimidated. The ” pride of the dragons ” could easily coax so foolish humans. Ever since the elves ‘cultural strategy was successful, the dragons had also learned this. The weak and self-abased people often liked to whitewash the strong, believing that they had the quality of kindness and generosity. This was not surprising.
With so admiration, so delight, and even more urgency, they rushed to the distant harbor.
Seeing that the elves, the council, so random ships, and even the dragon army were carrying out the sa order, the last trace of doubt in his heart was dispelled.
You see, the council isn’t stupid, right? The elves are very smart, right? They did it, so it’s obvious that it’s true.
After being heavily guarded by the guards, the captain ca to the room where the dragon Luz was recuperating. Fortunately, the dragon had used the last of its strength to solidify the transformation spell. Otherwise, they would have had to sun it on the deck.
The adjutant opened the door, and the fragrance of the potion wafted into his nostrils. The captain and fleet commander stepped in, and the sound of the door closing rang out behind him. He took two steps forward and suddenly realized that sothing was wrong, so he turned around.
The adjutant, who was supposed to be guarding the door, stood inside the room. The door was closed from the inside.
The captain frowned and said,”You…”
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion beside him. He turned around and saw that the heavily injured dragon had already stood up.
His eyes shone with a purple light.
The captain’s expression changed drastically, and his combat aura surged. However, in the next mont, an even stronger force surged from behind him. His arms were clamped tightly. It was his adjutant, his nephew, the person on the entire ship who was the least likely to betray him, and also the subordinate he could trust the most.
He opened his mouth to shout, but his head was pressed down by a hand and his mouth was blocked. Through the gaps between his fingers, he saw the dragon’s eyes. They were evil, malicious, and filled with the cruelty of a beast.
“The plan has changed.”
” You should imdiately attack the Goethe people,” it said.” The ships and the city.”
The captain struggled.
The dragon’s expression was evil with a hint of dullness.
“Don’t worry.” It said,” I will make you obey.”
After the dragon transford into a human, his handso face split open like a man-eating flower with his nose as the center.
Countless tentacles shook off the terrifying sticky liquid and stretched towards the captain.
In the midst of the desperate cries, the captain vaguely heard screams and dragon roars coming from outside.
A terrifying thought appeared in his mind.
Lutz had said that there was more than one dragon like it that had returned to the surface.
The elves, the council, and even the dragon army all marched at the sa ti.
Then, the other dragons… What was he doing?
A terrible pain engulfed his soul. The writhing tentacles pierced into his body from his eyes, nose, ears, mouth, and even his skin, robbing him of his five senses.
Then, sothing surged in.
“-Crazy!”
The world was independent of ti and space, and there was a strange space filled with gears and springs. Purple blood stained the brass-colored ground, and a large number of broken tentacles twisted weakly. The mutated dragon that had yet to lose its vitality and was riddled with injuries showed so kind of crazy fear.
It panted heavily.
The River of Origin had disappeared. There was not a single trace of the mysterious elent here. This ant that the energy consud could not be replenished. It was the sa as Kant’s.
It had thought that this would beco its advantage again. After all, Kant seed to be unable to use the power of space, and he could not get any replenishnt from the River of Origin. It had thought that it could rely on its strength and size to get rid of this detestable Skyquaking ant, but the other party was more like a beast than it.
He wasn’t afraid of close combat and even actively sought intense combat. His unknown and terrifying strength was like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, biting and devouring everything. He grabbed the tentacles and pressed down on the flesh, then the limbs disappeared, and the flesh disintegrated… This was the power.
It even made Tracy have a terrifying thought.
It was a thought that did not belong to a dragon.
–Will be eaten.
It finally felt fear.
“Lunatic! Stay away from !” It flapped its wings and gathered its remaining power. It soared into the sky and accelerated, flying towards the world.” Stay away from !”
The wings of light were dazzling.
Kant chased after them fiercely. The locust armor on his body was already tattered. He could not replenish his strength in a high-intensity battle. Many locusts were in the world of white fog. Every death ant one less locust.
However, he did not care at all.
“Eat you!” He laughed maniacally.” I’ll eat you, eat you, eat you!”
The berserk teor crashed into the Aberrant Dragon.
Tracis frantically turned around to fight. His tentacles, thorns, and claws attacked the locust shield that was getting lesser and lesser. The mutated dragon had also gone crazy. He roared,”Don’t even think about it!” I gave up everything to co here! Race! Fellow countryn! Glory!
I must find the Ascension Room! Everything you lost will co back!”
“I can’t co back!”
” That’s why I must kill you! Kill you! Kill you!” Kant roared.
The remaining powers clashed in the air. Tracis gathered the last of his power and shot out a beam of light. Kant was no longer able to open the Realm Gate, so the Holy Brilliance swept up the swarm of bugs and t them head-on.
There was a violent explosion. The two madn who were fighting in the void were pushed by the violent aftershock and fell down. Kant and Tracy tried their best to maintain their bodies in midair. They continued to roar and launch all the long-range attacks they could at the enemies in the distance. The two figures fell to the ground one after another, producing a dull boom.
Kant rolled over in pain.
The Star grez Ring and the Gerrind Bugs acted as a buffer, but it still caused quite a bit of impact.
They fell into a huge square.
Kant struggled to turn his head. In front of him was a huge hollow sphere that towered into the clouds. It was quietly placed on a huge base and was covered in mysterious patterns. In the middle of the square, it looked like a mountain.
Tracy should have fallen to the other side.
He gritted his teeth and stood up like a ghost. His terrifying eyes swept around.
Kill him.
He had to kill him.
She was alone again, trapped in this place, unable to return ho.
Therefore, he had to kill him.
The prolonged pressure, the fear of fate, Ah Xing’s encounter, and everything else had worn away the excess emotions in this long and chaotic battle. Kant had almost broken down ntally. He had beco pure, single-minded, and stubborn. The only thing left in his mind was a final obsession.
Kill that dragon.
He had to kill him.
He stared at everything around him gloomily. The towering tal sphere should have surprised and familiar him, but now, nothing was in his eyes.
He only had one thought left.
His gaze swept across the square in front of him.
There was a bright light.
It wasn’t Tracy. Kant looked elsewhere.
Then, his body shook.
He suddenly turned around.
There was a bright light ahead.
Soone was standing there.
It was unfamiliar yet familiar.
She was the first ray of light in the fearful and desperate life in the other world, the first friendly creature he could rely on, the first tolerant person who could listen to his thoughts.
Even when he ca to the continent, she reappeared in front of him with a new body. However, she was still the old her. She was a little silly, but very cute. She had always accompanied him, just like before.
Her na was…
“Ah Xing…”
“Ah Xing,” Kant mumbled.
A ray of light shone into the chaotic and distorted soul.
He suddenly realized the true purpose of chasing them here without hesitation.
Not to kill Tracy.
It was her.
“Ah Xing…”
He dragged his tired and painful body, rolling and crawling toward the light.
“Ah Xing!”
He shouted that na.
In the vast square, the sound of stepping on the brass floor was empty. He was getting closer and closer to her, and he could see her appearance clearly. It was a familiar face, a familiar figure, and a familiar smile.
She was right there.
Tears flowed down her face unknowingly.
When he reached the base of the huge sphere, there were a hundred steps up.
He sprinted all the way.
“Ah Xing!” Kant shouted.
It was already very close.
Then, he heard Ah Xing’s voice.
“Kant!”
She was shouting.
” I’m here!” Kant wiped his tears away.
But the next mont, he was stunned.
Ah Xing’s entire body was enveloped in a warm light. She smiled and called out her na, but her gaze was sowhat empty and did not focus on him.
Kant.”
That gentle voice sounded slightly different from Ah Xing’s.
” I know you’re here. I know you’re listening. I can’t see you, but I’m sure you can see and hear .”
It was only then that Kant noticed the armor on Ah Xing’s body.
Horus had listened to his description and imitated the armor made by the ancients.
It was also similar to the armor he saw in his mories… It was exactly the sa.
” You may have many questions, but that’s not important. What’s important is that I ca here, and you ca here in the end. We t here in another unimaginable way. For this, the Light Beings paid the final sacrifice and price…But I believe that all of this is worth it.”
Ah Xing ca in front of him.
In this strange world where the concept of ti and space was no longer in order, her face was filled with the holiness of ti and hope. Kant seed to have sensed sothing. He saw two places where the river of ti flowed, eting in a small tributary…It was wonderful, hard to understand, and unfathomable.
But it seed like…He had already understood.
Ti flowed by, and the vicissitudes of the past changed. This world was indescribably mysterious, as if it was destined by fate, but also a coincidence of ti.
There was only one thing he was certain of.
Kant had triggered the final space-ti flashback.
Ah Xing placed his hand on his shoulder. It was warm to the touch. Ti passed, and it was hard to tell the past from the present.
“Listen to …”
