Chapter 3722: The Dragon's Goodwill

"The Lady of the Lake?"

To Xia De's surprise, Ms. Eden had actually heard of this story that only circulated in the countryside of Huntington City:

"God-Caller, are you saying that the 'Lady of the Lake' is an an..."

"If the 'Lady of the Lake' is willing to see you, you will definitely be able to find that lake. I am telling you this news because of your bloodline; I don't want to add trouble to that lady."

Ms. Eden nodded immediately, and then said to Xia De:

"Lord God-Caller, may I ask if there is anything I can do for you?"

Xia De laughed and looked in the direction of Claire, who had walked far away but whose back could still be seen.

"There are also witches in the Witch Council who use the power of the sun, but her level is not as high as yours. That witch lady needs some help recently."

【Sun Emblem】 Ms. Eden nodded knowingly:

"We can meet on the snowy mountains and just chat casually. This is my own private matter; I don't think it's necessary for others to know. This is my contact address; I will go to the appointment when the time is right."

Telepathy left information in Xia De's heart. Xia De reached out and shook hands with her; he liked this kind of cooperation.

Before lunch, Xia De told Claire that he had made an appointment with Ms. Eden for her to talk to Claire. The two were in the banquet hall of the snowy mountain hall at this time. Claire pursed her lips for a long time after hearing the news without speaking. When she took the initiative to speak later, she asked:

"Xia De, what the Fatuman people owe you, and what I owe you, how should I repay you?"

The Outlander had never liked cheesy and disgusting sentences like "repay me with the rest of your life," so he replied:

"When I go to see your parents—I mean, when I formally see your parents—you must remember to protect me and don't let them hit me."

Hearing that Xia De was afraid of being hit by ordinary people, Claire showed an expression of wanting to laugh, but her eyes turned red while she held back her laughter:

"The Witch Council has been eroded by you to this point. I see, Speaker Isabella didn't lose unjustly."

She hugged Xia De with red eyes, then turned her head to look, confirming that her white-haired apprentice was not there this time, and kissed Xia De.

After lunch, Xia De took the black bullet to talk to Grandma Cassandra about alchemy. At 1:30 in the afternoon, Ms. White contacted Winnie for the first time since their last meeting to discuss the "Brand of Sin."

"Ms. White said that on the coastline of the Old Continent in the northern part of the Falling Star Bay, in Cabon City, Devonshire, Karsinrik, a 'Before the Apocalypse' dusk scene covering one-third of the city area will appear this afternoon. The center of the erosion is in the eastern part of the city. Ms. White reminds us to deal with this matter as soon as possible."

"In addition, at dusk tonight, it will notify all current candidates about the seventh act."

"Is Cabon City heavily populated?"

Luweiya asked. Xiwei and Ms. Ilese were also beside Xia De at this time. Xiwei nodded with great worry:

"Although it cannot be compared with big cities like Willandale and Moon Bay, the population of Cabon City is definitely much larger than that of the City of Time Wheel. The Karsinrik United Kingdom has three important port cities on the coastline of the Falling Star Bay, and one of them is Cabon City."

The news was immediately sent to the Church, and the Zhengshen Sect, upon learning the news, was also shocked—truly shocked. Since the story of the "Whispering Poetry" began in 1853, only the Battle of Moon Bay had the highest casualties, but those casualties were eventually saved by Xia De's mystery lock.

And if mortals really entered that dusk scene, even if Xia De held the destiny of 【Resurrection】, he would not be able to reverse anyone's death.

There were only two hours left before the "Before the Apocalypse" descent notified by Ms. White. The Church immediately organized manpower to evacuate the city's population. It would be difficult to spread this news throughout the entire city in two hours, so the Church had to use some unconventional means this time.

And this matter was definitely not just as simple as evacuating the crowd. Subsequent refugee resettlement, external explanations, and how to isolate a dusk scene the size of one-third of a city were all very important issues.

Moreover, as a port city on the southern coast of Karsinrik, the chain reaction caused by the loss of function of an entire city was no less than the damage caused by population loss.

However, these were things to consider in the future. The most critical thing now was how to deal with such a large-scale "Before the Apocalypse" dusk scene.

Iluna, the Chosen One of "Balance," had already been proven to have the ability to block the expansion of the dusk scene, so this time the Church also invited Emilia, the Chosen One of Time. The elves were naturally happy to let Emilia show off when they heard it was to save a human city, and Emilia also agreed immediately when she heard it was to act together with Iluna.

Besides them, the Church also asked Xia De to contact other Chosen Ones to come and help. But Mr. Albert was still in a sealed state, and his power could not be used much; the opportunity of the Day of the Red Butterfly could not be used today; Sister Daifulin was still preparing for the promotion to the thirteenth ring in death, so the only ones Xia De could invite were the guardians of the earth.

Since giving gifts at the end of the year festival, Xia De had not seen them. In addition to their status as Chosen Ones, they also shoulder the responsibility of guarding the "Heart of the Earth" to maintain the stability of the earth, and they cannot easily leave the Heart of the Earth.

After Xia De entered the Heart of the Earth from the entrance below the Black Night Temple this afternoon, the guardians quickly understood why Xia De came. The souls stood scattered above the black rocks or magma, and the one communicating with Xia De this time was a lady:

"We do not have the ability to contend with the apocalypse by strength alone like the Chosen One of Balance."

Although Iluna did not seem to have strong power among the Chosen Ones, her power could almost stabilize all disasters.

"No need to contend, just delay the speed at which the yellow sand blows toward the normal world, giving the Church time to complete the space separation. Moreover, Cabon City needs an earthquake of appropriate intensity with continuous aftershocks, as a reason for the City Hall to issue an emergency evacuation order."

So the guardians temporarily left the Heart of the Earth. They did not need space power to achieve long-distance crossing; this relied on reducing the distance between lands. In short, although the guardians of the earth arrived a little later than Emilia and Iluna, they still met with them at the pier in Cabon City.

Then an earthquake hit this coastal city. The City Hall and the Karsinrik Army, which was urgently transferred to the local area, assisted in the evacuation of the entire city, while the three Chosen Ones relied on the location of the core area of "Before the Apocalypse" identified by the Prophecy Association to cast spells directly to control the complete unfolding of that dim yellow scene.

Except for them, others had no ability to intervene. Even Xia De, who was always "omnipotent," could only act in that sunset scene, but could not stop it from expanding.

It seemed impossible to evacuate the entire city in two hours, even with "chemical plant leaks" besides the earthquake, the large-scale illusion cast by "Illusion Master" Mr. Chris Evans, and the range-based mental suggestion that the Church rarely used but was actually very convenient, the pressure of evacuation was still very high.

Although Xia De couldn't help much, he still came to this coastal city in the northern part of the Schluch Lake island. The core area where the "Before the Apocalypse" scene appeared had already achieved the first-time evacuation of personnel. When the wind rolled the yellow sand toward them and the dim yellow sky appeared with a completely abnormal color, the three Chosen Ones cast spells while retreating.

The balance representing balance, the holy grail representing the earth, the world tree and dial representing time—the three holy emblems surrounded that large area in a triangle, and these powers symbolizing the ancient gods indeed prevented the dusk scene from expanding rapidly.

Xia De came with Xiwei this time. The two stood on a nearby rooftop watching the front, while Ellie hid behind Xia De curiously, looking at the city scenery around her. This could be considered the little unicorn's first time leaving the Schluch Lake island to see the world of this era.

The Church's ring warlocks were quickly setting up the space separation ritual, and the Five Gods Church also sent thirteenth-ring warlocks, but they couldn't do anything either, and were now watching the three Chosen Ones cast spells from different directions.

Suddenly, the sky above their heads darkened, a huge silver dragon flew past here, and then a middle-aged man wearing a scholar's white robe and glasses appeared on the rooftop where Xia De and Xiwei were.

Since the thirteenth-ring dragon "Scroll Wing" from Dragon Island appeared here, it should have greeted the Church in advance. Although Xia De did not know the reason for the other party's appearance, he still greeted this ancient dragon who, according to Mr. Albert, worked as a librarian on Dragon Island:

"Good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, God-Caller, good afternoon, Great Witch from the 【Witch Council】."

"Ang~"

Ellie called out to remind the other party of her existence, so the silver dragon smiled and said:

"Good afternoon, pure white holy beast, I am very happy to still be able to see your beautiful figure even in the Sixth Era."

The human-form silver dragon, except for the abnormal hair color, could not see any dragon appearance at all. He also looked at the area where the three Chosen Ones were casting spells in the distance, and then said to Xia De:

"Since the Battle of Moon Bay last year, we have been wanting to meet you, but unfortunately we haven't found an opportunity. Later, we contacted the successor of the 'Dragon King of Light', but that gentleman was also unwilling to reveal your information."

"Dragon King of Light" is another name for the ancient god "Dragon of Radiance," just as "Silver Moon Sage" is also called the Moon God or Moon Sage.

"May I ask what you want with me?"

Xia De asked curiously. He had seen another thirteenth-ring dragon from Dragon Island on the battlefield of Vesta Forest, but he hadn't had much contact with this "Scroll Wing."

The silver dragon, who looked like an elegant middle-aged man, said:

"You have the blessing of the fourth son of the Dragon King, and you helped the Dragon King of Light select a successor. We are all very curious about you. In the mouths of human ring warlocks, you are a very powerful existence, and in the Battle of Vesta Forest last year, you also proved this point."

"This time, we came to the southern island because of the future Elf Queen. Our encounter in this city has no purpose; we just want to express the goodwill from Dragon Island—what the elves can do, the dragons can also do." ===== CHAPTER 3723 =====
