Chapter 990: Order Blessing, Elf Peeping

At the same time.

In Daxia Territory of the Nan Jing, Laidun, who was working in the Government Hall, suddenly felt something. He looked up toward the ceiling, his gaze seemingly piercing through the roof to see the intangible force that was surging and growing.

Seeing such an astonishing sight, Laidun could not help but weep with joy. He immediately set aside his work and ran to the Altar Square.

Beneath the Altar, ignoring the thin layer of winter snow already accumulated on the ground, Laidun knelt on one knee and began to chant the Glorious Holy Word incessantly, saying:

"My Lord is above. Today, Laidun has finally witnessed the Order Force. My Lord's Dao is true and real!"

Meanwhile, in the Kangqi Plain, within each of the Pioneer Territories.

The territory residents, who were originally constrained by the cold winter while continuing their pioneering work, seemed to receive the support of an intangible force. Each of them wore a smile as they brought their respective tools outdoors.

Facing the howling north wind, they began to pioneer. Under the support of that intangible force, the land, which had already frozen solid, seemed to soften at this moment and was easily broken open.

If Xia Duo were here, it would not be hard for him to discover that the pioneering approach these people were taking was exactly the same as in Daxia Territory; not only was the division of labor clear and everyone performing their own duties, but they also cooperated tacitly, as if they were one body.

In other parts of Netheril, which were not the main links of the Order Force, they were still affected by its immeasurable radiation.

At this moment, any behavior related to pioneering seemed to have received some kind of magical bonus, becoming incomparably smooth.

Any thought related to pioneering also seemed to become a bit fuller. Everyone who had the intention of pioneering in their hearts, whether they were a Commoner or a lord, felt a sense of joy arise out of thin air.

That was the most true and real, transcendent realization of one's inner thoughts being recognized and supported.

Perhaps they did not know it themselves, but all of this happened quietly and naturally, just as if it had existed from the very beginning.

Seventon, outside the Arcane Plaza.

Three blurred figures appeared at some unknown time above the square, ancient, and simple buildings of the Arcane Union, not swaying in the slightest in the biting cold wind.

Only when they heard the mountain-shaking shouts of "Pioneer" in the Arcane Plaza did these three blurred figures tremble, seemingly becoming a bit more blurred.

"How likely do you think the Netherese are to succeed?" a profound Elvish voice came from one of the figures.

Even though the emotions that Elvish could express were very rich, it was difficult to fully describe the complex emotions within it.

"Mage Haidelei, this is not the first time. Do not use your shallow knowledge to probe the magnificence and profundity of the Main God. If you have the mind for this, you might as well think more about how to find the source of the change in the Oracle's revelation!"

"Yes, Lord Faluo!"

The voice that spoke first replied very respectfully; whether in language or action, no one could pick out a single point of impropriety.

However, Elvish is rich in expression, and the two blurred figures on the side also heard the almost undisguised attitude of disapproval within it.

It was not only disapproval of Faluo's warning, but it seemed even more like disapproval of the Main God.

Regarding this, Faluo and the other figure did not make any response.

It was not until a pillar of light shot into the sky from the Nether Palace in the north that Faluo spoke to remind them: "It is about time. We should leave. If we stay any longer, those few below might not be able to resist taking action."

Hearing this, Haidelei let out a cold hum, but did not raise any objection. Subsequently, the three blurred figures blurred again until they completely disappeared.

At the same time, in a corner of the Arcane Plaza, the Great Arcanist Bailun, who had already shown signs of wanting to take action, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief after confirming that the three high-level Elf Mages had left. He then sent a Sending to the other Great Arcanists:

"They have all left, but there is no guarantee they won't return. Lord Kelifu, please continue to monitor."

"No problem, it is my duty!"

While Kelifu was a Great Arcanist, he was also a Priest of the Lord of Glory, mastering the mysterious Prophecy, and was very adept at tracking, investigating, and monitoring.

At this time, Xia Duo, who was still in the process of the ceremony, although swept into the cycle of the Order Force, had no other abnormalities besides the joy that had arisen abruptly yet without his awareness.

He was still able to observe, think, and make decisions normally.

But at this moment, there was no longer any need for him to observe anything. Standing sideways to the figure of the Princess on the stage, even without activating Cloud Qi Vision, he could feel a vast and peerless power gestating.

Even the figure of the Princess, which was originally visible to the naked eye, became a little blurred, and a majesty that pierced the heart became increasingly magnificent, making it impossible for people to look directly at her.

This was different from the inability to look directly at something in Cloud Qi Vision when the Cloud Qi was too excessive and like blinding light; that was more on a "physical" level, and if one really didn't care about the risk of eye injury, one could completely force oneself to look directly.

It was just like the sun being there; whether to look or not was entirely voluntary.

But at this moment, the majesty that made it impossible to look directly, which rose from the Princess, seemed to originate from the heart, making it impossible for one to even have the thought of wanting to look directly.

This was just like when people in Xia Duo's hometown saw the Great Elder.

Even if both were mortal flesh and blood, and perhaps one was even stronger oneself, one might not dare to look directly into the other's eyes when meeting.

But that was more due to being overawed by authority, the immense pressure brought by tens of millions of officials within the organization, over a billion subjects directly ruled, and billions of lives indirectly affected.

And not the person himself.

But here, the gradually blurring figure of the Princess that Xia Duo saw seemed more like a minor side effect produced by the elevation of an individual's essence.

He had seen many Great Arcanists before, and had had direct contact with three of them, but the more he contacted and understood, the more he understood that these Great Arcanists were not essentially different from himself or even more ordinary people.

At least, when he saw a Great Arcanist, as long as he ruled out the possibility of the other party's temperament changing drastically and acting recklessly, it was difficult for him to develop any sense of awe that could not be surpassed.

Thoughts like "I could replace him" or "A real man should be like this" were thoughts that naturally arose every time Xia Duo saw a Great Arcanist.

But at this moment, facing the Princess, it was very difficult for him to develop similar thoughts again, as if even having such a thought was an act of great disrespect.

Fortunately, this majesty that could not be looked at or profaned only appeared when looking at the Princess; as long as he shifted his gaze and no longer saw the other party, everything returned to normal.

Such a discovery shocked Xia Duo greatly!

Among the various guesses he had previously made about the Princess's true purpose for this celebration, one suddenly became incomparably clear, occupying his mind and lingering for a long time—

Is the Princess going to become a god?!
