The various races of the Norland Continent had shown that they were taking this crisis seriously. In just half a day, more than 300 formation masters had been deployed to reinforce Chaos City, and all of them were formation masters above the 5th-tier. After they arrived at Chaos City, they were all deployed by Chaos City.
Although these formation masters had already been notified before they came, and knew the purpose of this trip.
However, when they passed through that strange stone door and saw that indescribable thing in the sealing spell formation, fear and disgust still made their expressions change drastically. There were even two low-tier 5th-tier formation masters who fainted on the spot due to fear.
"Carry them out, and choose two more to come in." Novan looked at the formation masters who were at a loss for words calmly, and solemnly said, "Everyone! Today, we are going to fight for the Norland Continent and reseal this fellow! Fear is its weapon. If we want to defeat it, the first step is to get rid of our fear. We have nowhere else to retreat to, and we don't have much time left. Therefore, all of you must complete every mission that is given to you. There is no room for error!
All of you are the heroes of the Norland Continent, but I hope the future generations don't have to use the word 'heroic' to describe us. Can you do that? "
"Yes!"
All the formation masters answered in unison. Their eyes were glowing, and they looked excited. Their fear of that indescribable thing disappeared instantly.
"This is a powerhouse who knows how to be a leader." Jonas looked at Novan with admiration.
"I heard he's the principal of one of the schools here," a formation master at the side said softly.
"Mr. Jonas, please assign tasks to them. These are the most outstanding formation masters on the Norland Continent." Novan stepped forward. As they had sufficient manpower now, there was no lack of 8th-tier and 9th-tier formation masters among the selected formation masters. There was even a 10th-tier formation master from the Magus Tower.
Jonas was also sizing up these formation masters. To be honest, the number and quality of these formation masters shocked him.
Including him, there were only five formation masters above the 7th-tier in the Moon Nation, but there were a total of 30 here. There was one 10th-tier formation master, and four 9th-tier formation masters.
"We've already successfully cracked the formation, but time is limited, so we plan to duplicate an identical sealing formation. However, we can only set it up outside the original sealing formation, so we've doubled the original formation …" Jonas didn't make any introductory remarks, and directly informed the formation masters present of the current situation, and began to assign tasks to them.
Soon, this group of Norland Continent's best spell formation masters got busy under Jonas' command. They cleared the area, unpacked the materials, and engraved the runes …
After Jonas arranged the work of the formation masters, he turned to look at Novan, and said, "I need to see all the materials sent out of the cave within three hours. If there's a lack of certain materials, I suggest that you guys consider how to evacuate the civilians first."
"Alright." Novan nodded and left the cave.
…
In the City Lord's Residence, the staff in charge of receiving the materials were almost running around. The materials that were transported from various clans needed to be checked and sorted before being sent to the Thunderstorm Mountains at the fastest speed.
Michael personally oversaw the process and watched over the materials.
"City Lord, the amount of blood essence stones has been reduced by half. The goblins said that they've already taken out all the reserves, and are currently mining urgently. However, the blood essence stone mine is almost exhausted, and has been put aside for many years without mining. I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the target amount in a short period of time." A staff member came forward with sweat all over his forehead.
Michael said with a grave expression, "None of the materials for the formation can be missing. Send a message to the various clans immediately and ask them to collect as many blood essence stones as possible. We must have enough."
"Yes." The staff member jogged away.
"City Lord, Miss Hill from Buffett Banks sent a list. She said that they have a batch of formation materials in their hands. If the City Lord's Residence needs them, they can use them at any time." Soon, another staff member ran over and presented a folded list.
Michael wasn't surprised that Miss Hill knew about this. With Buffett Banks' influence on the Norland Continent, it would be strange if she didn't know about such an important matter.
He quickly flipped through the list in his hand. The list was several pages long, and there were many materials listed on it. The quantity was also marked in detail at the back.
"They even have so many formations and refining materials in reserve. Buffett Bank's wealth is comparable to that of a country. It's not just for show." Michael raised his eyebrows slightly. Soon, his gaze fixed on a certain line on the third page. His eyes lit up, and he said to the staff member who brought the list, "Tell Labelle that there's no need to send an urgent report. We have the blood essence stones. Hurry up and check if there are any missing materials on this list. Go straight to the Buffett Manor to get them."
…
At the Buffett Manor.
Ian sat by the lake, holding a fishing rod in his hand as he leaned leisurely on his reclining chair.
"Grandfather, I've already made the necessary arrangements for our clansmen. We'll evacuate from Chaos City today and tomorrow. You and Grandmother have also arranged for your steeds. We can set off now." Scheer stood at the side with a nervous expression.
"I'm not leaving." Ian looked at the buoy swaying slightly on the surface of the water, and calmly said, "I'll stay here."
"But …"
"You don't have to persuade me. If we can't even protect Chaos City, where can we hide on the Norland Continent?" Ian smiled. "I've been to many places when I was young. I've been to many places. I've been to many places that I shouldn't have. Now, I don't want to leave. I just want to stay here and fish."
"I'm not leaving either. I've seen and enjoyed everything in this life. I'm old, and I can't walk anymore. I don't want to leave." A noble-looking old lady walked over slowly, and placed her hand gently on Ian's shoulder with a gentle smile.
"Grandmother." Miss Hill pursed her lips, but didn't know what to say.
"Child, go and do what you need to do. If the worst situation really happens, they still have to rely on you to support them." Ian looked up at Miss Hill, and apologetically said, "I'm really sorry to have thrown such a responsibility to you."
Miss Hill quickly regained her composure, and firmly said, "I believe there won't be any problems. The city lord and the others will definitely stop that thing." Then, she bade farewell and left.
"This child. You shouldn't have thrown such a big family to him." The old lady looked at Miss Hill's back view with heartache.
"If those sons of mine could be a little more capable, Miss Hill wouldn't have to suffer like this." Ian sighed, and reached out to pat the hand on his shoulder gently.
The two elders looked at each other and smiled. They only had each other in their eyes.
Miss Hill walked out of the courtyard, and calmly instructed, "Evacuate according to the plan. Remember, don't let anyone see that our family is leaving."
