Fifty kilometers north of Sanatar, in the underground city of Itcaar.
This was a small city with a population of only 20,000, but in the entire Silent City Alliance, this city was famous.
This was because Itcaar was the headquarters of the Church of Death in the underground world, and the supreme leader of the church, the Grand Shrine Priest with legendary strength, Neil, also lived here for a long time.
It was rumored that the preacher who spread the faith of Death to the underground world, the Guardian of the Underworld, the Magic Pet of Death Hella before she became a god, and one of the commanders of the Heroic Spirit Army, the Demon Wolf Fenrir, also slept here.
For the intelligent creatures of the underground world who believed in Death, this was the Holy City in their hearts.
At this moment, in the tallest obsidian building in the city, the famous Cathedral of Itcaar in the underground world, a group of illusory figures were discussing something around an orb that shone with a deep radiance.
These figures were the soul projections of the chiefs of the various city-states in the Silent City Alliance.
Through the Soul Storage Orb in the Temple of Death in each city-state, they projected their soul power into the meeting hall of the church headquarters to discuss important matters of the alliance.
In the hall, the atmosphere was heavy.
A chief of a city-state looked at the illusory figures lined up on both sides, then looked at the empty seat on the upper left, and sighed slightly.
"Sanatar … has fallen. Even with the support of the elves, this war will be difficult to continue. The dark army is marching straight in, I'm afraid the next city to be besieged will be the Holy City of Itcaar."
As soon as his voice fell, more than a dozen figures around him began to whisper.
At this moment, the first Blessed, Huo Xu, on the upper right, stood up, and his illusory voice resounded in the temple.
"Your Excellency, don't underestimate the power of the elves. They are allies in the oracle of His Holiness the True God, and like the heroic spirits of His Holiness, they have the ability of immortality. As long as our alliance can give them enough rewards and let them provide support through the road connecting Blade City to Itcaar, this war can still continue …"
As soon as this was said, the sixteen chiefs fell into a debate again.
The chiefs were clearly divided into two factions. One faction had completely fallen into pessimism, while the other faction led by Huo Xu believed that this war could still continue.
For a moment, the entire meeting hall was extremely lively, and no one could convince anyone.
"Quiet!"
At that moment, Grand Shrine Elder Neil, who sat at the head of the round table, spoke. As soon as he spoke, the other chiefs fell silent instantly.
The Great Shrine Elder Neil was a dark dwarf with white hair and beard. He wore a large black robe that was embroidered with intricate patterns, embellished with the image of the Grim Reaper's scythe.
His expression was calm, and his eyes were clear and bright. He didn't seem to be nervous or angry at Shanatar's defeat. He looked around the hall and finally looked at Huo Xu and said, "You're right.
"Tell our elven companions that this war has only just begun. Ask them to rush to Itcazar's aid as soon as possible. All rewards will be borne by the Church."
Huo Xu perked up and nodded.
The other City Chiefs opened their mouths, wanting to say something, but after seeing the Great Divine Temple Master's resolute and serious expression, they gave up.
After giving the order, the Grand Shrine Master turned around and gazed at the historical mural in front of the meeting hall.
The mural depicted the descent of the demon wolf Fenrir under the oracle of the True God, spreading the faith of the Grim Reaper in the Underdark …
Huo Xu followed the Great Divine Hall Master's gaze and made a guess.
Looking at the majestic demon wolf in the mural, the Grand Shrine Master said with clear eyes, "That's good.
The elves have bought us a lot of time for the war. Lord Fenrir is already on the verge of awakening. "
Hearing his words, the projections of the dozen or so seated chiefs perked up and finally understood the Grand Shrine Master's plan.
They were overjoyed.
"Lord Fenrir is about to awaken? Has he recovered from his injuries? Then … doesn't that mean … "
The Grand Shrine Master nodded slightly.
"That's right. Lord Fenrir is our real trump card."
"Although the Dark Coalition's army is huge, it's just a forced integration of the Lich King. None of them are willing to submit to the other."
"After conquering Shanatar, they will definitely divide their forces. As long as Itcazar can hold on for a while longer, when Lord Fenrir wakes up, everything will be reversed …"
"No one below the True God is a match for Lord Fenrir …"
…
"F * ck? Shanatar has fallen? The city's defense is better than Blade City's. How did it fall? "
In the commercial district of Itcazar, Demacia was surprised to see the heated discussion in the guild group.
He came to Itcazar to open up a new business.
Ever since the conditions for the advancement quota were announced, Demacia had been thinking about how he could get the quota. After thinking about it, it was too difficult for him to get into the top five on the leaderboard. The most reliable method was the lottery ticket.
As for the lottery ticket, to put it bluntly, it would cost a huge amount of contribution points. Regarding this, the fastest way Demacia could think of for him was to do business, and then sacrifice the golden claw to the Goddess in exchange for contribution points.
"Brother Dema, then … are we still setting up the Amway Merchant Guild's stronghold here? Is it better to go back and help? It feels like there's going to be a war! "
Another member of the Nature's Heart Guild who came with him asked.
Demacia heard and shook his head.
"It's too late. Shanatar has fallen and the teleportation circle is no longer working. We can't teleport back, and the others can't teleport here either. We can only walk …"
"According to the information sharing group, after the Dark Coalition's army took down Shanatar City, they have divided into five groups and attacked the five city-states of the Silent City Alliance. One of the armies is heading toward Itcazar."
The information sharing group was a private group set up by the higher-ups of the major guilds to exchange information.
"Even if Brother Mu and the others have organized an army, without the teleportation circle, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to win. And with our strength, we can only reinforce one city at most."
"Of course we have to send reinforcements. Otherwise, this large-scale war mission will fail. Besides, Brother Mu and the others have already discussed it. The target of our reinforcements is Itcaar. This is the holy city of the Church of Death. We can't be breached anywhere except here!"
"So, we just have to wait here slowly."
As he said that, Demacia scratched his head again.
"Speaking of which, the Silent Alliance's reaction is a little strange. I heard from Brother Mu that the chief of Blade City, Firebeard, doesn't seem to be worried about Shanatar City being breached. I have a feeling that … they should have follow-up preparations."
"We'll just wait here."
"Anyway, up until now, the Legends and even the Demigods of both sides have not made their move yet! When we were fighting the Orcs previously, the Legends showed up. The scale of the underground war is so big, but until now, it's only the low-level ones fighting. The higher-level ones have not made their move yet. "
"Everything, maybe there's still a chance …"
…
The actions of the players were swift.
After Shanatar City was breached, the three major guilds once again urgently gathered their troops and prepared to reinforce the other city-states of the Silent Alliance.
The major guilds discussed and their first choice was the Holy City of Death, Itcazar, which was relatively close to them and also more important.
Just as the players were gathering their troops, they also received a request from the Silent City Alliance.
Just as they had guessed, the Silent Alliance had requested their reinforcement from the Holy City of Death, Itcazar!
