Chapter 546: Differences of Opinion
"Most of the enemy's main forces are currently gathered in the tower in the center of the city. They are definitely brewing some kind of conspiracy. We can't just watch the enemy achieve their goals!
If the enemy is preparing to summon some kind of evil god, then once the other party completes the ritual, we will lose all hope of escape!"
Led by Brown Soynok, the third son of the head of the Enoch family, several war factions believed that the enemy should not be allowed to act, but should be actively attacked to nip the danger in the bud in advance.
"My opinion is just the opposite. I think we don't need to take unnecessary risks and confront the enemy head-on."
After listening to Brown Soynok's speech, the seventh prince Ville Augustine smiled slightly and spoke tit-for-tat.
"Your concern is not without reason, but it also needs to be combined with the actual situation. This is the Secret Realm of Glory, a secret realm flowing in the cracks of time, and each time it is opened, it is in a different time and space area.
This is completely inconsistent with the time and space stability required for the summoning ceremony. The probability that the other party specially drilled in here to summon the evil god is almost negligible.
Take a step back and say that even if they really succeeded in summoning the evil god. The huge movement that occurred at the moment when the other party broke through the boundary and descended, it would definitely not be hidden from the ninth-level extreme crowns who are paying attention to this place outside."
As he said, he suddenly changed the subject and pointed out a problem that everyone had not noticed before, or was deliberately avoiding.
"Also, they do look like indiscriminate attacks, but didn't you notice that not all of us were attacked!"
"The enemy deliberately chose some of us, including me and my brother. Fortunately, the royal family's secret treasure is powerful enough, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to talk to you here now.
As far as I know, most of the people who were attacked are conservatives.
I seriously suspect that some people actually colluded with them in advance and planned to use them to get rid of us and gain benefits."
As soon as this conjecture came out, everyone was silent. Thinking carefully, although Prince Willer's words were not pleasant to hear, the possibility in the conjecture could not be ignored.
For a while, the atmosphere in the field was a little solidified. Many people exchanged glances with the people nearby, as if they wanted to confirm something.
There is one thing that everyone tacitly did not mention. That is, are there any hidden enemies among these people present?
"The enemy is already within reach, there is no need for us to be suspicious of each other at this time. Those people are undoubtedly believers of alien gods. In this completely closed secret realm, who among you dares to guarantee that those mentally ill beings will let you go?"
Seeing that the temporary alliance has shown a tendency to split, the third princess Starlight Augustine had to stand up and calm everyone's emotions.
"Also, you don't have to worry too much about the enemy's strength, because the rules for entering the Glory Secret Realm are rigid.
Those strange beings can only sneak in here by disguising themselves as our entourage. This means that the opponent's strength will not exceed the eighth level. Gathering the strength of all of us is not without the ability to fight."
As for how to deal with the current contradictions in the temporary alliance, her solution is to compromise.
"As Lord Enoch said, we cannot let the enemy achieve their goal easily, but Lord Wheeler's opinion also makes sense. Our safety always comes first.
How about this, Lord Enoch take a few volunteers to explore the central tower to investigate the enemy's current specific movements? Only after we get the specific information, we can determine what to do.
During this time, we will go to the large clock tower in the distance to establish a temporary base and support you from afar.
If the enemy's actions have little impact on us, then after you come back, we can hold on here for seven days and rescue other scattered survivors at the same time..."
When talking about other survivors, Princess Xingguang suddenly flashed the shadow of Lan Nuo in her mind, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
I don't know how her ninth brother, who is the weakest, is doing now. With his hidden fifth-level strength, once he is attacked, there is almost no hope of survival.
"I agree with His Highness Xingguang's proposal!"
"I agree too, let's do it."
Not knowing what the third princess was thinking, everyone thought about her proposal and felt that it was acceptable, at least better than the proposal of direct attack/defense.
So, everyone split into two groups, one went to explore the central tower of the city, and the other went to the clock tower to set up a defensive array.
At the same time, Avis's third sister Alanis had also sneaked into the city at this moment, but it was difficult to start because of the gathering of many believers.
Because the direction of Avis indicated by the bloodline pointer was the tower in the center of the city. After noticing the actions of Brown So and others, Alanis thought about it and decided to sneak in while they attacked.
Soon, the opportunity she was waiting for came.
As she watched from afar, Brown So and others suddenly dispersed, and their figures faded and disappeared, lurking towards the tower in two directions.
If she had not marked one of the weakest with a magic item in advance, she might have lost the other party's trace now.
After a while, a riot broke out in the area of the tower. The group of believers were suddenly attacked by a large-scale spell and several believers were killed.
But this seemed to have angered the other party. Surrounded by a dozen low-level faceless believers on the ground, a huge black winged monster with a breath close to the ninth level crawled out of the tower.
It had a pterosaur-like head and three pairs of membrane wings, and its body exuded a sticky asphalt luster. It soared into the air in an anti-physical way and pounced on the attacker.
But at the same time, colorful negative magic effects directly entangled the monster. Although they were almost fleeting, they still caused some interference to it, making it unable to kill the "little bug" below instantly.
At the same time, the two consciously led the battlefield to a distance according to the plan to facilitate the reconnaissance of their companions.
What the pagan believers did not realize was that during their battle, several shadows, including Alanis and several other lone walkers, had sneaked into the tower.
The environment in the tower at this time shocked all the intruders. At this time, the four walls of the first floor of the tower had completely lost their original rock appearance, but turned into a nest of flesh and blood.
Disgusting flesh and blood climbed up the walls, the air was filled with strange smells, and sticky tentacles were wriggling in the corners of the room, mixed with a large number of dark green flesh cocoons. One part of it had broken open, and faceless low-level believers walked out of it.
Seeing this scene, Alanis's heart sank. If it weren't for the bloodline pointer still shaking, she almost thought that Avis had also been killed.
However, even if he was still alive, the situation of her fourth brother would probably not be much better.
After hesitating for a moment, the blue-haired girl gritted her teeth, tightly grasped her beloved sword, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and she carefully sneaked towards the top of the tower.
Avis, hold on, sister is here to save you!
.
….….
But at this time, Avis and Lannuo, who were worried about by others, had traveled through the mirror world and arrived at the real core area of the Forgotten Tower.
"Ugh--"
As a mystical spell, Mirror Realm Travel still worked successfully even in the Forgotten Tower, where space teleportation is prohibited. However, there was a small problem in the process of leaving the mirror.
"Are you all right?"
Looking at Lano and Albins who looked bad, and Lano's two companions who vomited before taking off their masks, Avis expressed his concern.
