Act 437 Good News and Bad News for Dritan
Looking at the camp outside the castle with no edge in sight, Dritan the Abyssal, should not be said to be the regent Dritan is in a very good mood!
During the confrontation with the Human Raiders, Dritan received two pieces of good news.
The first is that more than ninety percent of the lords of the Eternal Holy Cult have led their armies to the Bone Keep at his request, a white castle made entirely of white bones, and the castle where the Dritan family has lived for generations, and has built a strong defense line around it.
It doesn't matter whether the defense line is strong or not, the undead never rely on bunkers or anything to fight, as long as there are enough of them, whether they are attacking or defending, they will also give the enemy a headache.
What really makes Dritan happy is that the arrival of these lords means that his actual control over the Eternal Holy Sect has reached a very high level, and his orders can command the entire Eternal Holy Sect!
The second piece of good news is that he has been successfully elected regent!
That's right, the position Dritan dreams of!
After the proposal of the Council of Nobles and the confirmation of the Holy See, Dritan was finally officially called the regent of the Eternal Holy Religion, and could lead all aspects of the Eternal Holy Religion with full authority during the special period when the Holy Emperor was not in power.
It's a pity that this position is somewhat self-congratulatory, because it has never been recognized by the Holy Emperor - until this time, the otaku Saint Emperor was still living in his palace, ignoring everything from the outside world.
Whether it was the invasion of the human crusading army or Dritan's inauguration as regent, all of them were sent to the palace, but all of them were like stones in the sea like the previous documents, and there was no response at all.
So, just take care of everything on your own.
Now, having both nominal and real power, Dritan feels that he is already the true master of the Eternal Holy Sect! Of course, at least during the time the Holy Emperor's Mansion was in the Imperial Palace.
But just when Dritan was in a good mood, the guards suddenly told him that the lich Regels wanted to see him.
Just hearing the name Dritan knew it wasn't going to be a good thing!
You know, that Lich Regers is supposed to be harassing the logistics of the Human Raiders on the front lines! If it was to report the results of the battle, he didn't need to come back in person, so it could only be some bad news that he didn't want to hear.
"Let him in."
Dritan sighed helplessly, no matter what the bad news is, he always has to face it, so it's better to hear what he has to say first.
The first time the lich Regers entered the room, Dritan was frightened, and at this time, Regers had already changed his body!
"Councillor Regels!? You...... What's going on with you!? How could someone hurt you to the point where they needed to use the life box!? ”
Dritan couldn't believe what he saw, if it weren't for the familiar soul breath that was the Lich Regles, he wouldn't have believed that this was the powerful Lich he had high hopes for!
You know, although the Lich Regels has a bad reputation, in fact, if he does fight him, even Dritan himself cannot guarantee that he will be able to defeat him!
Just being so proficient in flickering is enough to make the Lich Regers an enemy that no one would take lightly, not to mention this guy's penchant for collecting this strange magic, and God knows what weird tricks he will come up with in battle.
I didn't expect such a powerful lich Regels to turn into such an embarrassed appearance!?
The lich Regers staggered to his chair and did it at once, now too weak to stand.
"I'm going to make you laugh, Lord Dritan. I'm sorry that this mission failed. "I'm defeated, completely defeated...... I wanted to capture the Storm King back and give it to you as a gift, alas......"
Dritan frowned, "You're going to raid the Storm King?" The guards around him ......"
"No, no, that's a great opportunity! The Storm King went out on patrol with only a few guards, and I used teleportation to teleport the knights, and I didn't rush to hit him.
Everything was going well, and although there were a few twists and turns, it was all under my control...... But I didn't expect that at the last moment, I was inexplicably defeated! I still don't even know what beat me!
The kind of attack that could easily cut my body through it just appeared out of thin air! Even the sentient powers that I pride myself on can't tell where the enemy is!
Your Excellency, you must always be on the lookout for future battles! Watch out for that weird attack!
I'm sorry, but that's all I can tell you, the rest...... I still haven't figured it out......"
Dritan comforted the lich Regels with a gloomy face, and the news he brought swept away the joy he had just had, but the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.
The strange steel golem he had obtained was still in the basement of the castle, and although it had been a long time and countless people, including him, had studied the golem, they had never been able to get any useful information from it.
Just a charging golem is already so weird, and God knows what strange things that the Storm King can come up with!
For the first time, Dritan felt a hint of unease about the battle ahead.
"It seems that everyone should be made aware of those weird alchemy golems."
Dritan muttered to himself.
As soon as this thought came out, it immediately occupied his mind and lingered.
Indeed, those alchemy golems are not invincible, in fact, as long as you understand their weaknesses and use the right methods, you can easily take out those things that look terrifying.
It's just that if you don't have any idea about these alchemy golems in the first place, it's easy to get killed without even having a chance to learn about them.
Thinking of this, Dritan immediately wrote an order, signed his name, and called the guards in.
"Go to the Seven Great Families Residence with the name 'Qi' to read this order, and let those patriarchs come to see me."
The Seven Great Families of the Eternal Sacred Sect are the powerful lords of the Eternal Holy Sect whose status is second only to the Triumvirate of the Ancient Sect, and they are also the pillar forces in the army, and they have all been subordinated to him.
Dritan planned to let these people visit the alchemy golem, so that they could have an impression of the strange alchemy of the Storm King, and then pass on the corresponding information through them to better deal with future battles and be prepared.
