My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 513 - 407: Alice Prepares to Set Sail (6K)
After a night of hard work, Shen Sui truly experienced the feeling of being utterly drained.
There really wasn’t a drop left.
Freymia left satisfied, as she needed to head to the sea to help Martina set up the summoning array for the giant squid.
For such a massive entity like the giant squid, it couldn’t be teleported with just a dragon scale. A special array was required, and an identical array was needed at the destination world for the summoning—just like when Shen Sui had summoned Martina before.
On Shen Sui’s side, Alice was needed to cooperate in setting up the array in World No. 8.
Due to the characteristics of the giant squid, this array also had to be placed over the sea.
The sea in World No. 8 was the source of the extraordinary forces of this world, and its dangers were imaginable.
But if Alice truly wanted to save World No. 8, this was a risk she had to take.
Shen Sui quickly conveyed to Alice that the giant squid could purify the Black Tide and informed her that Martina’s actions required her cooperation.
Alice agreed without hesitation.
She had personally witnessed the horror of that sea, yet she didn’t hesitate for a moment.
However, before that, Alice needed to prepare some essential materials for setting up the array.
Her rescue operation on the snowfield was already complete, so she naturally didn’t need to linger there and headed straight to the Ice Lake.
Alice needed to find a relatively safe place to enter a dream state.
Since setting up the array might take a long time, Alice needed to take a magic potion to extend her sleep.
This potion, which could be considered a secret elixir of the blood race, was specially obtained by Alice from Isabella.
With over a hundred Snowfield Warriors protecting her, Alice didn’t have to worry about outside disturbances or attacks while she slept.
After several days of trekking, Alice and her group finally left the snowfield and entered the realm of the Ice Lake.
On the Dawn Continent, there were roughly two routes to enter the Northern Lands Snow Realm: one was from the Daylight Church, entering the Northern Lands Snow Realm from the Ice Lake, and the other was from the maritime route through White Mountain Ridge; the snowfield was too perilous and never a conventional route.
With the guidance of the Snowfield Warriors beside her, Alice successfully found a suitable spot for her slumber.
However, it was invariably the case that there would be unexpected scenarios at such times.
A mysterious person happened to run into Alice right there.
The opponent immediately made a move, attempting to snipe Alice in the lead.
But Alice was not who she used to be; not only had her strength reached the ninth tier, but her combat experience against bandit bullies had made her very adept at defending against such ambushes.
The attacker fled the moment his assassination failed.
However, he underestimated the capability of Alice’s guard group.
Three twelfth-tier strongmen pinned him to the ground effortlessly.
"The glory of the Twilight Council! Shall shine once more!!!"
The man shouted before self-destructing.
Alice was dumbfounded when she witnessed this scene.
What the hell is this?
How did it involve the Twilight Council?
The warriors beside her were also bewildered, looking at Alice, saying, "Holy Mother, did I just hear the Twilight Council?"
Being elites from various tribes, they certainly knew about the Snowfield Tribe’s connections with the Twilight Council.
Thus, this scene truly left the group baffled.
After all, the Holy Mother was a descendant of the Twilight Bishop, wasn’t this like turning against one’s own sanctuary...
Alice remained very calm; she was utterly convinced that the Twilight Council that Claude and Vivian had formed was a rational organization, definitely not one that would spontaneously self-destruct.
When she bent down to examine, Alice noticed something peculiar.
It seemed similar to what they encountered in Andrew City...
Alice narrowed her eyes, quickly reassured the warriors who had acted, and explained about the extreme Twilight Council born under the War God Church’s deification propaganda.
"A bunch of madmen used by the Church to tarnish the once-great Twilight of the Gods," Alice concluded.
However, the next question was why he appeared here.
Alice raised her head and looked into the distance.
Beyond the endless snowfield lay a pure white ridge. The Ice Lake Ridge wasn’t as towering as the mountains of White Mountain Ridge, but they were orderly arranged, forming an icy basin around the Ice Soul.
Cold, desolation, and snow white.
This was the main theme of the Snow Realm.
As the acting Pope of the Master of Thunder’s Church, Alice had once investigated this radical extreme Twilight Council, finding that no one had discovered their base so far.
Whether it was undiscovered or intentionally ignored, Alice couldn’t discern.
But if one were to find a suitable place on the Dawn Continent to hide a large number of people, providing enough space for magic research, then the Northern Lands Snow Realm was undoubtedly a fitting choice.
Could I have stumbled upon their stronghold?
Alice shivered and immediately ordered a temporary retreat to the snowfield.
While finding and eliminating this organization that defamed the Twilight Council was essential, setting up the summoning array for the giant squid was equally significant. During this time, Alice needed to maintain stable sleep and couldn’t afford to get entangled with this organization.
Entering the Ice Lake area so rashly was irresponsible toward her followers. It was better to take a slow approach. The snowfield was a place of destruction, and even if she had rattled the grass to startle the snake, they would never expect Alice to head back to the snowfield.
