The Last King Of Darkness-Chapter 1584 - 750: The Choice
This is a report sent to him by the Holy Church. As the Fire Son of Trolian and the only Hidden Fire Keeper in a thousand years, Rod was qualified and needed to be informed of all developments in the Royal City.
Flipping through the first few pages of the report, everything in Trolian is currently going smoothly. Everywhere is stable, the defense is peaceful, and Great Dragon City, Wind City, and Sword Fortress have entered a normal defense state. The combat forces gathered in these three great cities take turns in battle, and under the powerful firelight, complete defensive settings, and with the support of special level combatants, the incoming monsters are eliminated like cutting grass.
There is no need to mention the Royal City guarding the North. Under the protection of the Holy Fire, the majority of Trolian’s power is gathered. Monsters coming from the Dark Great Plain in the north are often eliminated before they even reach the Dead Ash Mountain Range.
Given the nearly overwhelming advantage, human consumption and damage have been minimized.
The Black Fog Great Wall has perfectly fulfilled its duties, directing the monsters approaching the Trolian border to the fronts of the three great cities, greatly easing the defense pressure. However, there are exceptions, especially monsters born within the Black Fog Great Wall and a few that pass through it.
But they cannot escape the warning mechanism specially established by the Royal City. Watchtowers monitor all suspicious situations, and the patrol team swiftly quashes any threats.
From this, the "Eternal Sanctuary" plan has already been declared a complete success.
More importantly, the Holy Fire after the second fusion directly expanded its influence range by one time, while the indirect influence range increased by nearly two times, covering more than half of the Trolian region. For this reason, a small portion of the Black Fog Great Wall was rerouted to avoid being affected by the Holy Fire.
This is still far from its limit. The Royal City is working with all its might to manufacture Fire Kindling and Fuel Element. After obtaining the third Holy Fire Seed, the upper limit of the Holy Fire has been further enhanced. As long as more Fire Kindling and Fuel Element are invested, the strength of the Holy Fire can be further increased.
The only problem is that the King Artifact carrying the Holy Fire has reached its limit. When it was originally created, there was no consideration that the Holy Fire could reach such a strength. From the perspective of people at that time, this level was more than sufficient, yet now it limits the Holy Fire, preventing further enhancement.
Just as the priests and priests of the Holy Church were troubled, Rod took out the King Artifact brought back from Saint Reel, arousing their ecstasy. They immediately united with the top craftsmen of the Mechanical Research Institute to dismantle the King Artifact of Saint Reel and fuse it into Trolian’s King Artifact.
Thus, Trolian’s King Artifact could bear a more powerful Holy Fire. Everyone believes that in the future, the strength of the Holy Fire can be further enhanced.
This series of miracles and successes has made the voice of further expansion within the entire Royal City louder and louder. There are also many opinions advocating full expansion westward, incorporating the entire old land of Saint Reel into the embrace of Trolian.
Currently, Trolian’s expansion is only partial, using less than one-tenth of its power and very cautious.
Before sinking into the Holy Fire, the King’s opinion left was to delay expansion, consolidate strength, and solidify the foundation.
Whether it is the residual will of the Blood God or the Source Prophecy, as well as the last words of some strong individuals, all indicate that a crisis is approaching. Therefore, the conservative opinions within the highest level of Trolian remain mainstream. Most, including Dalin and Horus, believe in being steady, first digesting the occupied territories before expanding.
As for swallowing Saint Reel in one go, that is absolutely impossible, too reckless, as if a delusion after victory.
Not to mention anything else, the Fire Spark of the Guardian Fire is not enough.
Without enough bases to establish, occupation cannot be completed, and Saint Reel itself is sparsely populated, originally possessing few Fire Sparks of the Guardian Fire, and many have been severely polluted, making purification a complicated task.
However, led by Evela and Bossivale, the original inhabitants of Saint Reel strongly desire to return to their old land, thus forcing the Royal City to establish a long-term plan, intending to one day return to Saint Reel and reclaim the old land belonging to human civilization.
Of course, the current actions still focus on reclaiming human assets. Kai and Olivia are frantically looting in Saint Reel, with a continuous flow of material resources being sent back to Trolian, contributing to Trolian’s strength.
Meanwhile, the Investigation Legion has begun looking for two other Human Kingdoms, and there is a preliminary plan for exploring the Main Continent.
But more importantly, there is the Abyss.
So far, in the information obtained by the Royal City, everything has a significant connection with the Abyss. The Abyss likely hides a massive secret, whether it is the Ancient God sunk in the Abyss or the origin of the Black Fog, all have myriad connections to it.
Many people believe that if they can truly find the so-called "Extremely Evil Person," they can uncover the source of the Black Fog and what it truly is.
If they can obtain this secret, finding a method to completely eradicate the Black Fog will just be a matter of time.
However, exploring the Abyss is extremely dangerous; a small mistake not only could result in a total army collapse but may even trigger an Abyss upheaval, causing significant disaster to Trolian.
At least, they need to wait for the King to awaken before considering this matter.
Of course, they can start making some preparations in advance. The Military War Department tasked the Mechanical Research Institute with creating equipment for the Abyss, and Alan is using his soul seed "Abyss Blade" to mass-produce weapons that protect against Abyss pollution.
