In the Hearthstone Tavern during the spring equinox, Josiah was having a video chat with King Cheil of the Land of Frost.
"Did you see that?"
Cheil had just turned on the video chat function. She was still not used to the camera, so Josiah could only see half of Cheil's face in the bottom left corner of the screen.
The Frost Owl was looking at the camera with her icy blue eyes.
"I can see it, but Cheil, can you move further away from the camera?"
Josh took out a nautical chart drawn by the Oceanfront Nation … It should be called the Seafolk now.
"Like this?"
Cheil pulled the camera back slightly, and Josiah could finally see Cheil's current appearance.
It had been almost half a month since the World Cultural Exhibition, and Cheil represented the Land of Frost in accepting the Seafolk's request to reclaim their homeland.
From the background behind Cheil, she should be on the back of the giant turtle.
"Hiri doesn't seem to be next to you."
Cheil was also observing Josiah's surroundings. Josiah was holding a nautical chart by himself, and there was no one else around.
"Hiri is stroking a cat, which means she's raising a cat."
Josiah wasn't in his study. Now, Josiah's study had become a cat raising place.
Although the Orange Cat's body would listen to Josiah's control, it still had its instincts as a cat, so it had to be active every day.
"Cats … As expected, compared to this type of pet, I like owls more."
Cheil unconsciously started chatting with Josiah. Every time the King of the Land of Frost privately chatted with Josiah, he would always reveal his true nature.
Or should he put down his guard?
"I don't have any experience in raising owls, but speaking of which, Cheil, how are things on your side?"
Josiah's video call with Cheil was not just for … a chat.
Cheil had just arrived on the back of the giant tortoise as the leader of the Land of Frost army. This meant that the army of the Land of Frost was ready to attack another continent.
"This place has been corroded by the Grey Fog for too long, so most of the plants have withered. The High Elves are currently improving the situation on the island … As for the boundary of the Grey Fog Barrier, it will take some time before we reach it."
When Cheil said this, a pure white owl, or Snowy Owl, landed on Cheil's head and tilted its head to look at the interface of the video.
It seemed that she really had an owl as her pet.
"There's something else that came from your elder brother." Cheil did not realize that there was an owl on her head at all. Instead, the owl's appearance reminded her of something important.
"My elder brother? What did Nogus say? "Josiah asked.
"The existence of messengers may have the ability to reproduce. This is something that Marshal Amt occasionally mentioned when he was chatting with your elder brother … It seems that he himself is a little uncertain."
Cheil's tone was a little serious when she said this. If this information was true … the situation on the other continent would be very troublesome.
"This is the worst news I've heard. But no matter if it's seven or a hundred, if we can kill one, we can kill a hundred."
Josiah did not think that the players in the game world were limited by 'military strength'. With the current power of faith stored in the three World Trees, it would not be a problem to kill another hundred messengers.
"If that's the case, I'm relieved. Speaking of which, Josiah … This is the first time I've seen the sea since I was born," Cheil said to the camera in a low voice.
"Uh … Although it's not my first time seeing it, I haven't played in a long time. It's good to find some time to relax after the war."
Of course, Josiah understood the hint of the King of the Land of Frost, but he still redirected the topic back to preparing for war.
… …
The city shrouded in the Grey Fog, this dead city was glowing with an unimaginable vitality.
As for the reason that brought vitality to the city, Heiwei believed that it should be the recent rise of arcade machines and Little Tyrant.
But more people would rather believe that it was because of … the mysterious Order religion.
Heiwei was not willing to believe in any god, but without a doubt … he had been infected with a new addiction disease. The annoying Orange Cat told Heiwei that this addiction disease could be collectively called 'Internet Addiction'.
The symptoms were that if he did not touch arcade games or Little Tyrant games for a day, Heiwei would feel uncomfortable all over his body.
In fact, some people in this city had already abandoned the Laughter Mixture and began to use Little Tyrant to obtain happiness.
Whether this change was good or bad had nothing to do with Heiwei. Now, he only wanted to find some new games to play.
On the other side of the city, Mud Crocodile had also become … a believer of the Order religion. Like the Sewing Gang, they also began to release Little Tyrant games and operate arcade machines.
What was different was that … Heiwei heard that the Little Tyrant games sold by Mud Crocodile were completely different. There were games like Contra and Squirrel Wars.
The 'cartridges' of these games were only sold in Mud Crocodile, and the two games' Super Mario 'and' The Yeti Brothers' could only be bought in the Sewing Gang.
After playing a lot of Little Tyrant games, Heiwei was certainly not satisfied with the two Little Tyrant games. So today, he came to Mud Crocodile's territory, wanting to collect the 'Squirrel Wars' cartridges.
Mud Crocodile's territory was much poorer than the Sewing Gang's. The urban area here was mostly made up of wooden houses, and only a small number of humans would come here.
Heiwei bypassed the muddy street and saw a wooden house with a strange combination of a ball and a wooden stick logo.
This logo was the logo of the arcade machine hall … The logos of the two gangs were very similar. It was said that the Order religion specially made this logo.
Heiwei bypassed the sleeping beggars and tramps by the roadside and came to the door of the wooden house. He carefully poked his head out of the wooden house's window to check the situation inside.
The wooden house was very chaotic. Heiwei saw a group of figures in gray robes in the arcade machine hall.
At this moment, he covered his mouth in fear.
An Inspector!
The most terrifying existence in this city.
"Not only the raw crystal, but also the magic inscription … How should I punish you bold lizards?"
A man in gray robe's hand was like an octopus's tentacle mixed with flesh and blood. He lifted the person in charge of the arcade machine hall into the air.
"Can this lizard be eaten?"
Heiwei heard a scary suggestion from another inspector.
"Lietta … This lizard can't be eaten. It reeks of the power of faith."
"Oh."
Heiwei's forehead was already overflowing with a lot of sweat. He resisted his fear and observed the situation inside. One of the four inspectors was relatively short, about the same size as him. He suddenly saw the short figure's appearance. It was a girl.
At least it was a creature with the appearance of a human girl.
But in the next second, sharp tentacles appeared again under the short figure's cloak, directly piercing through the lizard man that was held high in the air.
