Just before the war fully comnced, the Fischer family received so trendously good news!
Chris had finally mastered the 6th Rank of the Path of Tranquility, and once he completed the elevation ritual for the "Reaper's Blade" at the Seventh Tier, he would gain even greater power.
What power the "Reaper's Blade" at the Seventh Tier of the Path of Tranquility held was unknown to the mbers of the Dawn Church, but they all believed that the current Lord Chris was already very powerful. If he succeeded in stepping onto the Seventh Tier, he might very well beco the strongest under the Heavenly Enlightennt!
Moreover, the Eastern region of Ouden Continent was forbidden to those granted Heavenly Enlightennt.
Should Chris reach the Seventh Tier, the Fischer family and the Dawn Church would undoubtedly beco the reigning supre powers across the entire region of Ouden Continent!
In the Grand Hall, Christine, seated in a wheelchair, looked at her father and, with an unsteady emotion, flashed a smile, saying,
"According to the Divine Oracle of the great Lord of the Lost, the ritual for the Seventh Tier 'Reaper's Blade' is very simple and fits well with the Path of Tranquility... It requires the killing of three, exactly three 'worthy' enemies to ascend."
She was a bit puzzled and muttered to herself, "Hmm, how should I understand what 'worthy' ans? It feels like a very abstract concept."
"Does it refer to Extraordinary powerful experts at the Monarch Level?"
"I know."
Chris shook his head, his face expressionless, and said, "I have my own criteria."
He had always had criteria.
So people were worth killing, while others simply didn't deserve death but needed to be eradicated, this criterion of "worthiness" isn't even about strength, but sothing much more crucial.
For instance, the head of the Garcia family, whom Chris had once fought to the death with in the village, was in his heart an opponent worthy of killing. Though there were many stronger than the Garcia head, Chris knew very clearly that only such individuals were truly strong!
The simplest premise of strength, in fact, was the ability to carry out one's own will with full force, unreservedly and recklessly expressing one's caprices!
Indeed, Chris did want to murder those true strong individuals.
Even without the requirents of the elevation ritual, he had always thought as much.
It was precisely for this reason that Chris was a genius of the Path of Tranquility.
Standing to the side, Darren nodded, smiling as he said, "Then let Chris complete the ritual during the war. In a way, we are lucky. If it weren't for this war... Chris would probably need much more ti to complete the elevation ritual."
"And according to the intelligence held by our Black Tide, the enemy has already decided to attack Cyart in three separate groups. In my view, this is a good thing... We can also concentrate our forces to defeat each enemy one by one!"
He could probably guess why the enemy didn't unite all their forces to attack Nasir directly, likely because of the huge failures of the Stars Embrace Order and the Words of Tranquility before.
Christine imdiately asked, "So, there are three enemy forces in total. Which should we defeat first?"
She thought for a mont and then added, "At sea, the power of the great Lord of the Lost can be far more effective, perhaps crushing the Carnian navy in an instant!"
Darren responded with a smile, "Yes, the Carnians are indeed too foolish. Although they possess theoretically strong capabilities, they ultimately chose to co from the sea... But they are unaware of the greatness of the Lord of the Lost, so this is our advantage in terms of information."
However, just when Christine thought he would agree with her, Darren's tone shifted, and he continued,
"But I think we should start with the Vallere army, which is closest to us. Based on the intelligence given by Felix, we are very clear about the internal situation of the Vallere army."
Darren was very satisfied with Felix's infiltration, as his son had still managed to provide all kinds of intelligence in spite of being under surveillance.
The inner realities of the Vallere army were now very clear, making them the easiest for them to defeat.
"Defeating one of the three strong enemy forces will fill the other two with fear, causing a severe drop in their overall morale," he paused, then continued,
"After dealing with the Vallere army, if nothing unexpected happens, let's go and take care of the Carnians at sea... We should resolve them before they land, because as you know, the great Lord of the Lost can wield much greater power at sea!"
"As for the eternal enemies of the Fischer family, the deadly foes... the yer family and the Rhea people..."
Darren's eyes brimd with intense hatred and malice.
"Let them beco the final feast!"
——
At the break of dawn, a faint mist enshrouded the Vallere Army's camp like a mysterious veil gently covering the land that did not belong to Vallere citizens.
They had already arrived near the towns around Fein City.
Within the camp, the sound of the bugle suddenly erupted, long and spirited, piercing the quiet air and awakening the soldiers from their slumber.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!"
The soldiers quickly poured out of their makeshift barracks, dressed in uniform, weapons slung over their shoulders, their eyes sparkling with a desire for victory.
Under the command of the officers, the soldiers quickly fell into line, skillfully checking their firearms, ammunition, and backpacks. The quartermasters busily darted among the ranks, distributing the final supplies.
"These people are just cannon fodder, these invaders, yet each of them feels they are heroes of Vallere..."
Felix silently watched the scene, still embedded within the Vallere army, following the entire troop southward.
Even though he was a bishop sent by the Reforging Church and held a high position, he was still not trusted by the King of Vallere in the army and was basically not allowed to leave his place.
However, that was not a big problem for Felix.
He used the extraordinary power of the "Path of Forging" - "Mold Making" and "Stone Sculpting," to create a type of special stone person similar to alchemical puppets and alchemical fairies.
These special stone people were only palm-sized; when they lay down motionless, they were indistinguishable from a few real stones, and they could also decompose and roll around on their own.
Felix himself did not leave the range of the watchers' sight but secretly used these stone beings as his ans of investigation, gathering various intelligence within the Vallere army.
The King of Vallere and the Leader of the Reconstruction Army had recently been purging a part of the Extraordinary nobility in Vallere, mainly those who had first defected to the Lorne Empire, and then trapped the King's close associates.
After this purge, Vallere was also greatly weakened. Excluding the King of Vallere and the Leader of the Reconstruction Army, there were only five Monarch powerful experts in the army, and if there had not been three from the Reforging Church to assist, they would have been the weakest among the three armies on their own.
Felix glanced at the person watching him, who was also a low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponent, still smiling at him, to which he also responded with a smile.
"The King of Vallere's power of Bloodline is the 'Earth Blade,' which can condense the power of the earth into a blade, possessing solid strength... and the Leader of the Reconstruction Army, that woman Agata, is more troubleso, her Bloodline power is the rare spatial type 'Shining Angel,' capable of constant 'Flashing,' making it very difficult to defeat."
"Besides, they also possess many Forbidden rare artifacts."
He sighed, continuing to ponder deeply.
"But even though they are powerful, they can still be defeated with so effort. In reality, the biggest problem we, the Fischer family, face is actually the 'Destroyer,' a cardinal of the Reforging Church."
Felix furrowed his brow tightly, his hand reaching out and biting his finger.
Although he was not very clear on the specific details of the 'Destroyer's' power of Bloodline or Power of Spells, the 'Destroyer' was suspected to possess the ability to manipulate several creations.
Moreover, the variety of things he had created so far was vast and peculiar, unpredictable. Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
There was no doubt that it would be extrely difficult for the Fischer family and Dawn Church to defeat him!
Just then, a stone erged from the ground and touched Felix's shoe, delivering important information: the Vallere citizens had captured a large number of Cyart people!
They planned to use these Cyart people for so sort of special sacrifice!
"What?"
Hearing this news, Felix's expression dramatically changed!
The God of Reforging was a True God and would never accept human sacrifices, so who were the Vallere individuals planning to sacrifice? What exactly was going on?
