Distant Fortress.

Under the heavy clouds, the entire gray castle was as terrifying and hideous as a giant beast.

Inside the city, several tall boilers are constantly spewing smoke, and there are a large number of dead people coming and going around.

The third floor of the fortress has been completely emptied, and the gray floor is covered in various magical patterns, and as the spellcasters chant incantations, demons will be summoned from time to time, and then scream under the siege of the surrounding soldiers, and their corpses will become the source of materials for the transformation of the monsters.

It seems that the Florals are still preparing for a possible war.

With a burst of spatial fluctuations, Xia Dong's figure suddenly appeared on the platform on the fourth floor, and as soon as he finished saying goodbye to Minaya, he instantly crossed a distance of thousands of miles by relying on teleportation.

In fact, he lied to the girl, and left Meswall not to rebuild the territory, but only to go to Calester and meet the Lord of Magic.

Now that he was involved in the chess game, he felt that he could not continue to sit and wait for someone to make a move, and after much consideration, he thought that the King of Magic might be someone to work with, at least temporarily.

Because in the plan of the god of fate, the king of magic is the target that must be eradicated, so the enemy of the enemy is the friend!

Besides, there is actually no conflict between him and the King of Magic, the other party wants humans to control their own destiny and no longer be "enslaved" by any gods, and under the calculation of the God of Destiny, although he has embarked on the path of the ancient gods, he has also completely freed himself from the shackles of the power of faith.

Therefore, there is a complete basis for cooperation between them, even if it is the establishment of the underworld to promote themselves to the middle divine power, I believe that the other party will not object.

In addition, in addition to meeting with the King of Magic on this trip, Xia Dong also planned to go to Philiskenyon, because he felt that the source of holy light was also an object that could be fought for, not to mention that the other party still had the coordinates of the outer crystal wall in his hand.

With a "whoosh" sound breaking through the air, a figure in a green and black sacrificial robe had already knelt down in front of him, and then a voice full of joy came, "Master, you are here." ”

Although he used the method of concealment of the god of fate, Lytia, who had a special relationship, could still feel her master, so she immediately put down what she was holding and came to meet her.

Nodding, Xia Dong turned around and walked into the room of the command post, and after covering the entire fortress with his divine thoughts, he commanded softly, "I will secretly go to Calest, and you make a false impression here to make others think that I am here as much as possible." ”

"As you wish." There was no doubt, after bowing and saluting, Lytia immediately walked to the seat and sat down, the godhead in her body quickly opened, and with the consumption of the power of faith, a divine thought that was almost indistinguishable from Xia Dong opened, taking over him to block the distant fortress.

Since the three daughters of Lytia and Xia Dong were originally the two sides of the god of death, as long as they consumed a little strength, it was very easy to simulate his breath, and with this divine thought, unless those demigods broke into the fortress, they would never find out the internal situation, and they would only think that Xia Dong had stayed here.

After sensing it for a while, and not finding any flaws, Xia Dong nodded again, and disappeared from the spot in an instant, and when he reappeared, he was already in the Divine Cry Fortress.

After a brief exchange with Cynthia through Divine Thoughts, he quietly left the fortress and entered Calest.

Outside the realm of the main material world, in the supreme god realm, three glowing figures stood tall in the magnificent temple.

"The Ancient Demon King has agreed to cooperate, as long as we kill the King of Magic and the Source of Light together, they will show an extremely cold heart, and even in order to show their sincerity, they can attach a ritual spell to establish the underworld." The voice of the god of fate sounded slowly.

"Hmph, are we really going to cooperate with these filthy devils?" The awe-inspiring voice of justice comes from the god of justice.

"Whether it is the devil or those blasphemous infidels, there is no difference in essence, we finally have the opportunity to provoke their infighting, as long as it is handled properly, they will no longer be able to fight against us in the future, why should we mind the false name?" The god of fate slowly retorted.

"Hmph, we are gods, how can we be like the devil and calculate?" The God of Justice understands the benefits, but he is still dissatisfied.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in the argument was getting stronger, the God of Light hurriedly played a round, "Okay, anyway, those heretics and demons have been allowed by us for too long, so long that they are about to hurt our prestige, and the damage that those devils have done to mankind is obvious to all, if we can get rid of them, even if we have a little stigma on our backs, it is nothing." ”

"But this plan is the opposite, this is to help the devil get rid of heresy, although they are heretics and deserve to die, but judging by fair standards, the devil's crimes are much heavier than them, and what is the so-called devil's country, isn't that to let human beings become food and become livestock raised by the devil?" Speaking of the back, the roar of the god of justice couldn't help but resound through the heavens and the earth, causing the entire temple to tremble.

Because he had a point, even the god of light began to hesitate and turned his gaze to the initiator of the plan.

After a long silence, the god of fate finally replied slowly: "Then what if we can catch them all this time?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the two gods next to him immediately flickered.

"Are you really sure?" This is an inquiry from the God of Light.

"Yes!" Although the god of fate only said one word, he was full of confidence.

The Kingdom of Calest, split from the ancient Holy Empire of Fields, fell in the First Holy War, but was eventually recaptured by the Lascon Moorish Empire, and then split into an independent kingdom.

Its territory once stretched from the Sesk Mountains in the north, to the Endless Wilderness in the south, to the Falling Stars Sea in the west, and to the Falling Smoke Desert in the east, and the whole was in an inverted L-shape, much larger than the Fairmont Kingdom, but due to the intervention of the Death Army, it has now fallen from the Sesk Mountains to the Weeping Mountains.

Due to its location in the subtropics and tropics, the land is fertile and abundant, and the enlightened parliamentary system promoted by the King of Magic can be said to be a cohesive heart, a rich country and a strong people.

Even though he had suffered heavy losses in the Battle of the Dead just now, the entire kingdom was still in a thriving state, at least Xia Dong felt it all the way.

Here, he did not see the strict class boundaries, the high-flying nobles, the humble and prostrate vagrants, and the ironic Two Rivers of the Fairmont Kingdom.

There are only warm and courteous simple people, faces full of anticipation for tomorrow, and there seems to be some germ of the idea of equality for all people on earth.

This made him regret a little, regretting that he had let his legion destroy Calester in the north, because it gave him a good feeling.

With appreciation, he sat down on the second floor of the tavern, ordered some delicate snacks, and then looked at the beauties who came and went in the street, and because of the climate, the ladies here were quite earth-like, and they were all dressed in various light short skirts, allowing the white thighs and arms to be exposed, which was a feast for most men's eyes.

Of course, when it comes to skin color, they are still not as white and tender as the women on Fairmont's side, after all, the sun here is much stronger, even with the so-called alchemy product "sunscreen".

"Dong Dong ......" There was a burst of heavy footsteps stepping on the stairs from far and near, but with his keen hearing, Xia Dong knew that there were actually two people in the road, and the latter was about a woman, so his light footsteps were covered by the former.

Turning his head, Xia Dong looked at the staircase, and soon, a young man covered in heavy armor appeared, and later, another petite woman in leather armor also showed her face.

Seeing them, the waiter in the tavern immediately waved his hand, "Hey, Jack, here, that lord needs to hire someone to go to Kalas. ”

Nodding his head as a promise, the man strode in front of Xia Dong and bowed slightly, "My lord, my name is Jack, a high-level warrior, this is my sister Donna, who is also a high-level warrior, what do you need?" ”

Eyes swept over the two of them, although the contrast in size seemed to be a little strong, but the similarity could still be vaguely seen in the appearance, Xia Dong stretched out his hand and invited the two to sit down, "I am a scholar, and I hope to travel to the mainland to increase my knowledge, but as you can see, I have no combat power myself, so I hope that someone can protect my trip, of course, it would be better if someone could serve my daily life." ”

Hearing the latter words, Jack's eyes widened, and he said: "We are professional mercenaries, although you may not be from Calest, but as long as you are not from Delima, we will do our best to protect your safety, but that's all." ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Xia Dong replied indifferently: "No problem, professional people can do professional things, and I will find another way for servants, so let's do it, you escort me to Karas, all foreign affairs on the road, including robbers, guards, and monsters, will be handled by you, I will give you two, well, how about a free gold coin a day?" ”

Hiss!

The hearts of both brothers and sisters jumped at the same time, and then their eyes involuntarily began to shine.

Just kidding, a small mercenary team like them should be snickering if they can have five glorious silver coins a day on weekdays, and I don't know what kind of person this person would offer such a high price all at once.

Calester is not like the Fairmont Kingdom, because most people's lives are basically guaranteed, there are very few people who will go to the grass, even if a small number appears, it is also the sweet food of bounty hunters, so the danger of these mercenaries is extremely small.

Of course, because of this, not only is the price of employment very low, but it is not easy to get some business, and people like Jack even have to rely on the waiter's commission to take the job.

Therefore, Xia Dong's price immediately stopped them, and the petite girl blurted out after reacting again, "My lord, what if I pay you as a maid?" ”

In the blink of an eye, Xia Dong also guessed that the price he gave was a bit high, but he didn't care, he didn't care if there were too many things, when Calester in the north fell, the amount of free gold coins seized under his command was terrifying.

He thought about it for a while, and felt that this girl looked quite well-behaved, and if she could act as a maid, she would save herself trouble, so he replied: "Well, if you are a maid, you will have a free gold coin for three days, but only if there is no problem with your work." ”

Although he wanted to save trouble, he didn't want this girl to cause more trouble by then.
