[My child is sick and clings to me. I really can't get away. I updated late, everyone, please forgive me.]
On the Myers Continent, a large number of believers in the church had disappeared without a trace. These believers had basically left the Myers Continent under Baudelaire's control. The backbone had already followed Salin to the chaotic starry sky at the edge of the crystal wall, while the younger children were taken to many subcontinents and scattered.
These children were taught to believe in the great mage Salin, and then to believe in the Myers Goddess. Now that they were taken away and left the Myers Continent, they began to believe in pure magic.
What Salin did was something that no mage had ever tried before. The ancient mages were powerful and did not need to think about it. When these children grew up, they would become people who were devoted to magic, and learning magic would yield twice the results with half the effort. Those who were not talented could also become excellent Manipulators.
The Druidic Church finally split, and the City of Nature was simply demolished and moved away by Salin, leaving behind the empty Divine Nature Temple. Pope Baudelaire was nowhere to be found, and so was Water Fox. Only Winter was left to lead the Temple Knights.
When the follower of the goddess came to the City of Nature, he only saw an empty city. There were no city walls, and all traces of nature had disappeared without a trace.
He found Winter and questioned him, but Winter only said that he did not know the details, because the church was controlled by Baudelaire, and he was only the leader of the knights, so he had no right to ask about religious matters.
Although the Temple Knights had the duty to protect the church, not all of them were believers. The follower of the goddess was also very helpless. In the new code, Winter's position was not high, but he could not command him.
Winter's superior was Salin, and everyone knew this.
Salin helped Winter destroy the church and let him take revenge. Winter was someone who did not want to continue living, so there was no point in threatening him. Besides, Winter had no feelings for the Druidic Church, so it was not very possible for him to turn around and believe in Myers.
In the knights, demons occupied the majority of positions, and to control these demons, Neris had to agree.
Fortunately, Winter did not argue, and only let the follower of the goddess go to the temple himself to hold the succession ceremony. The messenger of the goddess was also caught unprepared. He originally thought that there would be a lot of trouble, but the only problem was that he came alone to hold the ceremony, and there was no one to help him.
Helpless, the Goddess' Messenger could only ask the Goddess for help.
Myer, who was watching all this from the Lookout, was both angry and amused. Indeed, Salin did not confront him directly. Instead, he adopted an even more depressing measure. As a result, the Druidic Order lost a large number of believers.
As for the remaining believers, although there were also more than a hundred million of them, they were basically converted from the believers of the God of Light. These conversion methods were related to Salin. The faith of these people could never be purified.
Removing the firewood from under the cauldron was a very ancient method, but it was also the most effective.
Salin did not make any reckless moves at all. He simply withdrew his people and left the Goddess with the shell of a church.
There were no teleportation portals in the City of Nature. The nearest city with a teleportation portal was Guderian City. However, it was clear that Guderian City wouldn't allow the Goddess's followers to use teleportation arrays, so the Goddess's followers had no choice but to fly back to the Purgatory Desert.
Salin stalled for time very well, and the Goddess could only laugh at this matter.
Salin left behind the shell of the church. If she lost the battle, she could take away the true believers. This could be considered a deal. Salin did not want to go too far before the outcome of the battle was confirmed.
If the Druidic Order was completely destroyed, the Goddess would not have too many scruples. For example, if the entire world was filled with the believers of the God of Light, then Salin would not care about the safety of the dimension. He would release forbidden spells above level-16 without hesitation and turn everything he passed into hell. He would not need to spend a hundred years to clean up the remaining rebels on the continent.
The split of the Druidic Order had no impact on the Fifth Dynasty. Rex followed Salin to the edge of the Crystal Wall System to train, and the country was temporarily handed over to Prince Sephiroth. Everything went on as usual, but there was still a little bit of unhappiness, which was the Iron Blood Duke's declaration of independence.
The Iron Blood Kingdom was established, but it was not on the Myer Continent, but on the three subcontinents.
The Iron Blood Duke invited the giant dragons of the Dragon Plane to garrison there, but Holy Rock City did not respond, nor did they send troops to fight. Salin had already acquiesced to this. Back then, the Iron Blood Duke chose to give up because he had a chance to obtain the throne of the Fifth Dynasty. Now that the successor of the Fifth Dynasty was Sephiroth, and there was no hope to change it, the Iron Blood Duke simply established a kingdom.
This little episode was ignored. The time that the Goddess and Salin had agreed on was not short. She simply established a new order of knights and went overseas to conquer the lands that Salin had not been to before.
Myer spent decades pacifying the seas in the east, south, and west, leaving only the seas in the north. There were no humans living in the north, and the Frozen Sea was an area controlled by magical beasts.
That was originally the hiding place of the King City of the Abyss, but now only the graveyard of the heroic spirits was left.
Twenty years passed in the blink of an eye. Finally, one day, Salin returned to Metatlin City and summoned the messenger left by the Goddess.
"Go tell the Goddess that I am ready to go to the King City of the Abyss."
Salin returned from the edge of the chaotic galaxy. Although he was still at the peak of level-17 and had not advanced, his state was completely different. The messenger of the Goddess could not see Salin's face clearly. That was because he could not concentrate, and even his vision was affected.
"Yes, Lord Salin." After the messenger bowed respectfully to Salin, he left Metatlin City. He did not use the teleportation formation, but instead flew back to the Purgatory Desert.
As soon as he left the city, the Goddess and her followers descended from the sky.
Only then did the messenger realize that he had done wrong, and his face was full of shame. Myer said indifferently, "Alright, you are not Salin's match. The gap is too big, so it is not your fault. Go back to the temple."
"Yes." The messenger left in a hurry. The Goddess, who had materialized Salin, suddenly laughed.
This Salin was a little like the emperor of the First Dynasty. He had built his base incomparably sturdy. Unless a Level-18 powerhouse made a move, it would be impossible to destroy Metatlin City directly.
In the temple, Salin had already sensed Myer's arrival. He opened the restriction on the city gate, allowing Myer and the others to enter. Myer was also different from before. Now, Salin felt that Myer was like the girl he had seen on the wall for the first time — innocent, pure, and seemingly harmless.
Myer's feet were bare, and her long dress flowed elegantly. She was dressed simply, and only wore a red wooden bracelet on her wrist. Step by step, she walked into Metatlin City. The wind in the city gate seemed to follow her footsteps, and her followers seemed to be out of touch with her.
Natural integration. This kind of footsteps was even more powerful than Salin's earth-style movement magic.
Myer's next step seemed certain to cover the same distance, but Salin knew that Myer's footsteps could appear anywhere.
Had she reached this level? It seemed that there was still a gap between him and the Goddess.
He needed to constantly comprehend new things, while Myer just needed to recover her former strength.
Salin walked out of the temple area in a few steps, unconsciously imitating the Goddess' movements. However, he still used earth-style magic. He did not have the ability to move like the Goddess.
But this kind of movement greatly reduced the burden on his body. If he could use it in Comet Flash, Salin could already use it to fight for a long time.
They met on the road. Salin looked up at Myer, who was not far away, and said, "Lord Myer."
"Salin, hello." Myer formally greeted Salin for the first time.
"I'm good, very good."
"How are your preparations for the Graveyard of Heroes?"
"I've brought everyone. There won't be any delays."
"Shall we leave now?"
"Sure!" Salin waved his hand, and Raphael and Abilius appeared behind him. He didn't know if it was intentional or not, but these two people who accompanied him were both angels. Salin's followers, on the other hand, continued to train in the magic booster. In the core of the magic booster, the Boder's Gate and the magic grid had already been fused together. As long as enough energy was embedded in the magic array, it could reverse time and provide more opportunities for training.
Smiling, Myer came to Salin's side, and the two flew side by side towards the north.
Without any unnecessary words, they had already discussed how to deal with the people in the Graveyard of Heroes. Myer would pacify the overseas land, and Salin would help her completely eliminate the heroic spirits.
Just like that, the two headed north. Not only did they fly at high speed, but their altitude was already beyond the atmosphere. In the thin air, the temperature had also dropped below freezing point. The two didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, they chatted happily.
Salin asked Myer some questions about magic, and Myer and Salin learned more about what happened after the First Dynasty. Salin didn't know much, but through the calculations of divine spells and magic, he could infer more information from some of the information he had.
"Salin, don't you think that I'm very unreasonable and overbearing?" Myers suddenly asked this question.
Salin was surprised. "Of all the experts I've met, you're the most reasonable."
"So, after I died, the world did become very bad."
"For the weak, it's difficult to survive in any era."
"I think what Rex is doing is to give all the weak a chance to regain their dignity." Myer was referring to the vision of the Magic Empire. Under Rex's leadership, magic in the Fifth Dynasty was indeed flourishing. Some mages who lacked a source of income would no longer be poor or rely on the nobles.
"There's no such thing as an immortal dynasty. Rex has her ideals. I'm just going to support her."
