At the summit of the Holy City — Mount Olympus.
At the same time.
That was when Han Dong cleared True Fate for the first time, and when the team members completed the first level of talent allocation. During this time, the Holy City had been formulating a plan called "The Eve of the Expedition."
The participants and their important functions included:
1. Members of the core council (including prophets, judges, and judges)
Decide the overall progress of the Great Expedition and formulate special expeditionary force laws.
2. Head of the Steam Knights and General Manager of the Holy City Chamber of Commerce: [Sponsor] Gary G. Trovix, Deputy Head of the Steam Knights and Great Mechanical High Priest of the Machinery Church — Congreve Newton
3. Provide 'core steam technology' that will be used in the Great Expedition, such as core power sources, transportation vehicles, material transmission, firepower support, and so on.
3. Pope's spokesperson — Bishop Garth Montor (Cardinal), Holy Lady of the Holy See and Head of the Holy Knights — Olivia Christian
4. Provide spiritual supervision, faith activities, purification rituals that cover the entire Great Expedition, as well as the planned "Mobile Church" that needs to be built together with the Blacksmith Association and the Steam Knights. This project is the core of whether the Great Expedition can proceed smoothly.
4. General Victor Adams, Grand Secretary of the Royal Guard, and Grand Secretary Moselian
5. Represent the royal family to decide the defensive measures of the Holy City during the Great Expedition, the addition of defensive projects, and other matters related to the safety of the Holy City.
5. The Head and Deputy Head of the other 13 Knights, and the President of the medium-large association (not participating in the entire process)
6. Decide the system, structure, and personnel selection of the expeditionary force, various technical support for the expedition, talent support, and participation in major decisions.
The total duration of the meeting had reached 15 days and 12 hours.
Because a certain problem had not been resolved, the final decision could not be completed. The meeting was currently in a temporary state.
At the same time.
[Holy City — Second Level] — At the end of the hidden street.
The Secret Library, the headquarters of the Secret Word Knights.
Even though the Secret Library and the six streets around it were in a 'space envelope' state.
Due to the deciphering of a certain top-secret slate, an uncontrollable space opening was torn open … Suddenly, an indescribable Hybrid Demon aura gushed out from the Secret Library.
A large amount of Hybrid Demon aura that originated from outside the city was constantly gushing out of the Secret Library's various cracks and rapidly spreading out into the streets.
On the empty streets, the Hybrid Demon aura spread directly caused the various plants by the roadside to grow countless suction cups.
The branches turned into tentacles, twisting wildly in the air …
Of course, the knights had already taken this situation into consideration. They had already evacuated all the residents from the nearby streets and replaced them with Holy Fathers, Combat Nuns, or Purifiers from the Holy Knights.
He could feel the aura of the Hybrid Demons spreading.
They immediately reinforced the Divine Protection Barrier, sealing the contamination in a certain area of space.
Some of the less experienced clerics were even frightened by such a scene.
The polluted aura that seeped out from the secret museum was enough to corrupt thousands of people in an instant … What was the interior of the secret museum like? Could it be that all the knights of the Secret Words Knights had fallen?
The person in charge of the Purifiers immediately reported the situation to Commander Olivia who was in the middle of a meeting.
However, the instructions they received from the leader were very simple. They only needed to be responsible for their own enchantments and prevent the contamination from leaking out.
About an hour passed.
The pollution from the secret museum had filled the entire street and was about to reach the critical defense value of the barrier.
Just as the Purifiers were about to use the local churches on the second level to further strengthen the barrier, a voice suddenly rang out.
The main door of the [Secret Museum] was suddenly pushed open.
A relatively lazy figure slowly walked out from the inside.
He had a strange stench all over his body, as if he was a homeless person who had been rolling around in a trash can for days.
His messy brown hair was already in knots, and his clothes were also stained with a large amount of stinky mucus. A few strange eyeballs hung between the red and green mucus.
It seemed that Hugo had just killed all the foreign Hybrid Demons that had been sent into the secret museum by deciphering the slate.
When he came outside, Commander Hugo immediately took a deep breath.
For a moment, all the polluted aura seeping out of the secret museum was sucked into Commander Hugo's body. The polluted street immediately returned to its normal state, and even the plants grew green leaves again.
As for Commander Hugo, there was basically no change except for the fact that he had become even more stinky.
The Purifiers guarding outside the barrier stared at this scene and were so scared that they could not speak.
However, they also knew that Commander Hugo had a rare "Pollution Immunity" physique that only appeared once in a hundred years.
"Tell Olivia that the 'Slate of the Old King' has been deciphered … Wait for me to take a shower and then I will come to the meeting."
Hugo personally brought the deciphered slate to the meeting hall. When he arrived, all the commanders of the knight order were already present.
As Hugo displayed the contents of the slate, the people in charge of the great expedition all had different expressions on their faces.
They immediately entered the final stage of the meeting.
After another two days and two nights, the matters related to the great expedition were completely finalized.
Tomorrow, matters related to "The Eve of the Great Expedition" would be announced to the entire city.
The most important period in human history was about to arrive.
…
The scene switched to Han Dong's side.
Due to Wen Li and Abel's arm wrestling, the [Medusa's Eye] bar was severely damaged, causing a noble to be seriously injured. At first, it was immediately determined to be a malicious incident.
This caused the "Night Watchers" patrolling nearby to clean up the scene.
This forced Han Dong and the others to reveal their identities. Together with Dempus' status as a VIP in the bar, as well as compensating for the losses on the spot, this matter was finally settled with great difficulty.
However, Wen Li's "monstrous power" was far beyond Han Dong's imagination … Such monstrous power could directly solve some problems.
Of course, Abel also fell into a short period of isolation.
Just as the group returned to the private room and continued the long-awaited gathering between the teams.
The magic circle broadcast equipment in the bar was suddenly activated.
Not only that, but all the broadcast equipment in the streets and alleys were also activated … The broadcast of the entire Holy City was connected to a certain point.
There was an important announcement about to be made.
From behind the broadcast came the majestic voice of the [Holy City's Barrier, Grand Knight – Roland Lion King's Pride]. Just a few words were enough to inspire people.
"The Supreme Council, the Grand Knight Order, the Royal Family, and the Supreme Church have decided.
Will be in [Evernight Era – 291].
The [Great Expedition] will be fully launched.
Now! The Holy City will enter the state of preparation for the expedition.
Next, I, Roland Lion King's Pride, will announce the rules and regulations of "The Eve of the Great Expedition."
