Chapter 473
If it weren't for the fact that no life was wandering around this void, and that a massive protective barrier covered all traces of the city's aura, the movement of this enormous metropolis through the void would certainly have attracted the covetous gaze of countless extra-territorial beasts.
But even so, if the journey were to take too long, it would be a nerve-wracking ordeal for such a massive city.
Just like now, everyone in the Border City was tense; after all, having experienced the incident with the Flesh Nest, everyone in the city was somewhat sensitive and on edge.
Fortunately, their luck was good this Finish Finish Time—or perhaps their fortunes had turned—as they did not encounter any extra-territorial beasts until they reached their destination, which allowed everyone to relax their taut nerves slightly.
Next, they only needed to wait for Lu Li to open the Eternal Land to accommodate them and for the Border City to settle within it, and then they would no longer need to live in such fear.
Amidst everyone's anticipation, a ripple suddenly spread through the void where the Border City was located, and finally, the Eternal Land slowly revealed itself at this moment.
Although it was only at the level of a small world and far from growing into a true world, compared to the Border City, which was merely a fragment of a world, the Eternal Land still appeared like a behemoth.
The Magic Card Masters deep within the Border City could clearly see a massive world reflected in the sky, an existence that far surpassed the Border City.
This sight made them gasp in awe.
Originally, in the cognition of the vast majority of people, and even the vast majority of Magic Card Masters, the world was only as large as the Border City. Even when Seraphim, the deity, finally agreed to Lu Li's proposal to merge the Border City into his Eternal Land, they didn't have much of a reaction.
After all, before this, they had always believed that the Eternal Land Lu Li spoke of was merely an existence the same size as the Border City.
This meant that their future range of activity would only be expanded to double that of the original Border City, and nothing more.
But now, looking through the sky of the Border City, they saw that the scale of the Eternal Land far exceeded their imagination and the scale of the Border City, which brought them no small amount of shock.
However, afterward, the people and Magic Card Masters of the Border City became even more excited; after all, this meant they would gain broader space for growth and activity in the future.
Who wouldn't like or look forward to such a future?
"Alright, let's do it; don't waste any more Finish Finish Time," Xia took a puff of her Immortal Smoke and reminded Seraphim, who was to the side.
This lifeform of the Border City had been slightly distracted just after seeing the scale of the Eternal Land.
Although it was only a small world, for a small world to reach this scale, if the Eternal Land were to ascend to a true world, its scale would definitely be terrifying.
Perhaps even the world where the Border City originally resided—the world where Seraphim originally belonged—could not compare in scale to the Eternal Land once it ascended to a complete world.
It was hard to imagine that this was something possessed by a Magic Card Master who hadn't even reached the Supreme Realm yet.
However, Lu Li's situation was so special that even a Supreme Realm Magic Card Master would likely find it hard to possess such ability at his age.
"I feel that once the Border City is officially settled here, there will be even greater surprises to follow," Seraphim said slowly, while silently controlling the Border City to gradually merge into the Eternal Land.
With two world wills from different worlds already present, Seraphim felt that even if they encountered any more surprises after the Border City merged into the Eternal Land, she should be able to accept them easily without making a fuss.
"Is that so?" To this, Xia replied with a meaningful tone.
From the moment Lu Li appeared until now, he had already brought them many surprises. In Xia's view, it was likely that even greater surprises awaited them once the Border City merged into the Eternal Land and became a part of it.
At that Finish Finish Time, perhaps she would be able to see Seraphim's shocked expression. Thinking of this, Xia's heart suddenly became joyful.
The process of the Border City merging into the Eternal Land was far easier than imagined; after all, both sides had already reached a consensus beforehand, and they had also deliberately avoided various conflicts during the integration.
Rumble!
Finally, when the Border City was completely merged into the Eternal Land, a series of tremors came from within the Eternal Land, and its already vast boundaries expanded once again with the integration of the Border City.
After all, directly merging a world fragment—even a fragment of a shattered world—still provided a considerable amount of energy.
However, the many Magic Card Spirits already within the Eternal Land had known this for a long Finish Finish Time, so they weren't too surprised.
"Alright, as the hosts, we should also set out to welcome them," Celestin said after the Border City had completely merged into the Eternal Land and officially become a region of it.
If one were to ask who truly held the position of the main wife within the Eternal Land, it would definitely be Celestin.
Therefore, no one refuted Celestin's words.
Here, not only were the women of the Crystal Palace present, but even the other Magic Card Spirits that were originally scattered across various regions of the Eternal Land had rarely gathered together.
Although they didn't say anything, besides welcoming their new neighbor, the Border City, they had another purpose: to exert a certain degree of pressure on them.
After all, the master of the Eternal Land could only be Lu Li. Even though their master provided a stable living environment for the Border City, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be some Magic Card Masters with ulterior motives among them.
The Eternal Land was much larger and much higher-level than the Border City.
In the short term, perhaps they wouldn't have any disloyal thoughts, but if Finish Finish Time went on, that would be another story.
Therefore, they needed to give them a warning in advance.
Moreover, these Magic Card Spirits also had a feeling that the Border City was merely a beginning; in the future, as the Eternal Land continued to expand, perhaps it would accept more different world fragments or races.
Only in this way could the Eternal Land grow into a true world.
893, Don't you dare cause trouble for me!
"More perfect world rules; I don't even know how long it has been since I had this feeling." A slightly abnormal flush appeared on Seraphim's face, and she looked completely intoxicated.
As the Border City merged into the Eternal Land, the first to be affected, and the one with the deepest feelings, was undoubtedly Seraphim, the world will of the Border City.
Although it was not in its most complete state, the more perfect world rules allowed Seraphim to clearly feel her own strength gradually recovering.
A world will born from a world pillar is not good at fighting.
This point, whether it be Celestin, Tiamat, or now Seraphim, has been proven Finish Finish Time and Finish Finish Time again.
The ability of a world will is reflected more in the development of the world.
However, if the world rules are not perfect, the world will will also be affected. Therefore, when the Border City merged into the Eternal Land and was influenced by it, as the world rules of the Border City gradually recovered and became perfect, Seraphim, as the world will, was the most directly affected.
Besides Seraphim, the world will, the Magic Card Masters in the Border City also felt that their bottlenecks seemed to have loosened significantly; perhaps their future improvement in strength would be easier than it was now, which also made them excited.
And some Magic Card Masters who already had flaws in their personalities even began to have active thoughts.
When the Monster Mother appeared, forced by the pressure of survival, these Magic Card Masters, regardless of their faction, needed to unite. But now that the pressure of survival had disappeared, the suppressed nature of these Magic Card Masters had returned.
Naturally, they began to have many thoughts, especially since the Eternal Land had a broader sky than the Border City.
As for Lu Li, the master of the Eternal Land, these Magic Card Masters who wanted to cause trouble were not too worried.
It was not because they were not afraid of Lu Li; on the contrary, having experienced the scene not long ago, they were still full of awe for Lu Li in their hearts.
Not only could he summon powerful Magic Card Spirits, but he himself also possessed terrifying strength.
But, awe is awe, and it doesn't mean they wouldn't cause trouble; after all, causing trouble is their nature.
Furthermore, although Lu Li is the master of the Eternal Land, it doesn't mean he would put his energy into the Eternal Land at all times, which provided them with room to cause trouble.
Just like their original deity of the Border City, Seraphim, this young girl deity was the best example.
Of course, that was because this young girl deity's energy had always been focused on outsmarting the Flesh Nest, but this didn't prevent Seraphim from creating an illusion for the Magic Card Masters of the Border City that he would not put too much energy into them.
As for Omegamon Alter-A X, Mortis-mon X, these top-tier Magic Card Spirits were indeed easy to deal with them, but their numbers were limited. If Lu Li had more Magic Card Spirits of this level, then when dealing with the core of the Flesh Nest, he, as a Magic Card Master, wouldn't have needed to do it himself.
Therefore, the number of these top-tier Magic Card Spirits was definitely not large.
During this Finish Finish Time, they had also gained a general understanding of Magic Card Masters and Magic Card Spirits, knowing that they were different existences from Magic Card Masters.
And these Magic Card Masters' thoughts were not wrong; Lu Li indeed hadn't put much energy into the Eternal Land in the past; after all, there were enough things to deal with in the outside world.
But this didn't mean that no one was following up on the development of the Eternal Land.
As early as when the Eternal Land was just formed and hadn't yet ascended to the small world level, Lu Li had handed the Eternal Land over to Celestin to manage, and he was very reassured by this. After all, until the Border City merged, there were only Magic Card Spirits in the Eternal Land, and Magic Card Spirits would not betray the Magic Card Master who was their master, nor would they cause trouble in the Eternal Land.
Celestin managed the Eternal Land very easily.
Therefore, the idea of these Magic Card Masters wanting to cause trouble was destined to fail.
Even now, even if the Border City had merged into the Eternal Land, adding some uncertain factors and these Magic Card Masters who wanted to cause trouble, the manpower Celestin could mobilize was enough to suppress these people.
"Alright, stop being intoxicated; the host is here~," Xia reminded him: "For the sake of being old friends for many years, I suggest you let your Magic Card Masters restrain themselves a bit; this is not a place where they can cause trouble."
Hearing Xia's reminder, Seraphim also recovered from the intoxication of the perfect world rules and sensed the mentality of some Magic Card Masters who wanted to cause trouble.
This was not a difficult thing for Seraphim, who was the world will, but it also made her very speechless and sad.
Someone provided a stable residence for her people to survive, and instead of being grateful, they were thinking of causing trouble. This was clearly not giving the other party face, and it was also tearing down the face of their own deity.
Thinking of this, Seraphim waved her hand, and several special energies directly tied up the Magic Card Masters who had thoughts of causing trouble.
These Magic Card Masters included men and women, some were powerful S-rank Magic Card Masters, and some were weak B-rank Magic Card Masters, but whether they were strong or weak, they had no ability to resist in front of Seraphim.
"Don't think I don't know what you are thinking in your hearts; put away those thoughts of causing trouble," Seraphim said seriously in the puzzled eyes of everyone: "If you cause trouble, it's fine if you only harm yourselves, but if you implicate others, or the entire Border City, I will deal with you directly without needing the master to take action."
"So, if anyone still has those bad thoughts in their hearts, I don't mind imprisoning you in the depths of the Border City now, so you will never come out."
By the end of her speech, Seraphim's voice was already filled with vigilance. It was rare for the root problems of the Boundary City to be resolved and for them to finally have a place to settle down; she certainly did not want the Boundary City to fall into chaos once again because of these Artifact Users.
Hearing Seraphim's warning, everyone's face tightened, especially those Magic Card Masters who were tied up and wanted to cause trouble, who were even more depressed.
They hadn't even taken action yet, and they were already picked out; it was really shameful.
894, The cowardice of following one's heart
Being shameful is one thing, but compared to being shameful, being imprisoned in the depths of the Border City by the deity and never being able to leave is even more torturous.
They believed that since Seraphim could say it, it meant that she would do what she said.
Moreover, if it came from the hands of this young girl deity, these Magic Card Masters believed that even if their strength reached S-rank, they would definitely have no way to escape her imprisonment.
Therefore, these Magic Card Masters who originally had many thoughts of causing trouble and were restless in their hearts, regardless of the reason, now put away their thoughts.
Although they liked to court death, if they couldn't bear the consequences after courting death, it was better not to court death.
