The wizards and alchemy warlocks who had returned from the Elf Kingdom on the Yala Continent seemed to have gone on a long journey. Everyone was waiting for their news. Many people were curious about what they had encountered in that magical kingdom, and whether those amazing rumors were true or not.
However, all the wizards and alchemy warlocks who returned seemed to have fallen into complete silence, as if nothing had happened. However, this abnormal phenomenon made everyone feel even more uneasy.
"It's incredibly calm, but it makes people feel like a storm is coming!"
"Do you smell this?"
Jonathan held his wife, Rosia, in his arms as he looked at the civilians coming and going in the city. The conductors of public carriages rang their bells as they shuttled between the cities. A large number of workshop workers shuttled back and forth in the city, while a newsboy ran in the streets and alleys. Farmers brought vegetables and fruits from the countryside to sell in the market.
It was such a small existence that formed this city and the system of the human world. The whole world was peaceful and stable, and everyone could find their own place here.
However, when Jonathan saw this peaceful and stable scene, he suddenly felt his heart beating rapidly. He didn't know whether it was because he felt uneasy or because he smelled the prelude to a drastic change in the times.
Rosia looked at her husband in confusion, then looked at the sky. The sky was clear and cloudless. "The weather is very good. There can't be a storm!"
Some time ago, Marina had accepted Jonathan as an official student at Akkad Alchemy College, in front of all the mentors and a large number of alchemy warlocks. This was the only student that Marina had accepted in the past few decades, which meant that Jonathan had truly inherited Marina Bossay's alchemy legacy. It also meant that Jonathan had entered the core circle of alchemy warlocks in this world.
It could be said that this was something that Jonathan had dreamed of, but after a series of eruptions, Jonathan saw the truth of this world and the mighty power of God, which broadened Jonathan's horizons in an instant.
Jonathan held his wife in his arms and laughed, but his eyes showed all kinds of complicated emotions.
"This is an era of great change!
It will also be an era full of opportunities!
I, Jonathan Brown, will definitely become the protagonist of this era! "
At this time, a newsboy ran across the street, waving an urgent newspaper. It was as if something major had happened. He had actually rushed out an extra edition in the afternoon!
"Extra! Extra! "
"King Cetisius of the Pusuote Dynasty has announced that April 20th is the Day of Death, the most important day of pilgrimage for the temple of sky. On this day, believers must …"
Jonathan stopped the newsboy and said, "Give me a copy!"
Jonathan knew that the Heavenly Temple divided the world into the Heavenly Realm, the Underworld of Death, and the human world. The God of Death was the most important god in the Heavenly Temple, so King Cetisius of the Pusuote Dynasty must not have announced this on a whim. At this time, the gods were making all kinds of moves, which made people wonder.
Jonathan carefully looked at the information on the newspaper. It seemed that they were going to hold a major ceremony on April 20th. It would last for a month. There was no important information on it, but it gave people a sense of unusualness.
The next day, when Jonathan returned to Akkad Alchemy College, he was called to the office by Dean Marina Bossa.
"Jonathan, have you heard about the Day of Death of the temple of sky?" Marina took off her glasses and put them on the table. She looked a little serious.
Jonathan nodded and said, "Yes, teacher. I feel that something is wrong!"
Marina Bossa laughed and said, "Of course it is. I heard that Cetisius received an oracle. Although I don't know what kind of oracle it is, it must have something to do with the gods. His actions are definitely not simple!"
"And there must be something special about gathering so many believers!"
"Get ready. We will attend this ceremony as members of the Sean City-State Alliance!"
"Okay! Teacher! "
Jonathan didn't expect his teacher, Marina Bossa, to bring him along. Moreover, Jonathan felt that this matter was definitely not as simple as Marina Bossa had said. Marina must have known something, otherwise, she wouldn't be so cautious.
After Jonathan left, Marina stood up and looked at the bookshelf behind her. After glancing at it, she took out a book from it. It was a biography about Cetisius!
At this moment, all the post offices in the Pusuote Dynasty had issued orders. All the sky temples and priests treated the Day of Death as an important sacred festival, and a large number of believers were mobilized to celebrate the Day of Death.
Countless believers were marching toward the city of Baber, the capital of the Kingdom of Pusuote.
At the same time, the ceremony also sent invitations to the surrounding countries, big and small. All the countries, regardless of whether they were believers of the temple of sky or not, sent messengers to the capital of the Kingdom of Pusuote!
At the same time, more and more extraordinary people began to receive all kinds of rumors. They felt that this so-called Day of Death was different from the rest of the world, so they all started to head toward the city of Baber. There were even members of other churches among them.
All of a sudden, human wizards, orc wizards, alchemy warlocks, priests, and Holy Knights all gathered in the city of Baber. There were even evil demon warlocks and ghost wizards among them. Not only were there demon warlocks from the Church of True God, but there were also demon warlocks and their dependents from other powerful devil lords.
The religions and cults that had been hiding in the dark, and had almost disappeared after being attacked by the three major churches, also began to show signs of activity. It was as if they had received some kind of message, so they showed themselves in the darkness. They also felt that there was something they were looking for in the city of Baber!

Lu Zhiyu threw a few copper coins on the ground, then got into the carriage of the Sean City-State Alliance. Lu Zhiyu held Delmedi's hand and sat in the back of the carriage. Then, more and more people got into the carriage.
Delmedi sat beside Lu Zhiyu and pouted. "Don't treat me like a child, okay? Why are you holding my hand? I'm all grown up!" she said.
Lu Zhiyu looked out of the window and observed the changes that had taken place within the Sean City-State Alliance. He could see that all of this had been brought about by the alchemy warlocks. The workshop model had greatly increased productivity, and the alchemy college model, as well as the establishment of a large number of academies, had allowed more and more people to become literate and master knowledge.
On the streets, most of the people were dressed in fancy clothes, such as overcoats and top hats. Everyone seemed to be in good spirits, which was something that had rarely been seen on the Alen Continent one or two hundred years ago.
"The foundation has been laid. Just a little bit more, just a little bit more!"
Lu Zhiyu nodded and said something, but Delmedi didn't quite understand what he was saying. Delmedi was wearing a simple black dress, which made her look particularly handsome. Her collar couldn't cover her slender neck, and the most attractive thing about her was her pair of golden eyes, which had a provocative and arrogant look, which made her stand out from the crowd.
"Dad, I did a good job, didn't I?"
"No big problems? But this seems to be a little too much. If Cetisius wants to become a god, he still needs to take a few key steps. If you make such a big noise on the first step, it will cause him a lot of trouble later on! "
"What trouble? This is necessary, and this will let everyone know the name of the god of death!"
Lu Zhiyu didn't say anything, because making such a big noise just happened to be in line with Lu Zhiyu's later plans, which would speed up the process of competing for the position of god!
Lu Zhiyu looked at Delmedi, who was leaning against Lu Zhiyu's ear and looking at the scenery outside. Lu Zhiyu said angrily, "You said you've grown up, but your sister doesn't stick to me all day like you do!"
"My sister is not much better!"
