As expected, the news quickly spread from all directions.
The first to arrive were the officials of some cities near the coastline of the Vast Sea, or adventurers, as well as some powerhouses.
Then unfamiliar faces from the Sage Desert, and even the Three-Ring Tower, Steel City, and other central regions began to appear in Stony Mountain.
This was a rare occurrence.
Stony Mountain had always been regarded as a barren land, and no one was willing to go to that kind of place.
But this time, because of the Order Fire Seed, many people came here.
Although most of them did not know what the Order Fire Seed meant, there were always outstanding wise people in the forces behind them who understood all this.
The Order Fire Seed was the last ray of hope in the catastrophe.
Just as Ma Wen expected, the scene of Kate obtaining seven Order Fire Seeds indeed appeared in the entire Fernand world in one breath.
It was also precisely because of this that so many people were attracted.
Only, the only thing that made him feel fortunate was that on the second day after the incident, there were meteors streaking across from the south to the north.
A total of nine meteors. Just like those seven meteors streaking across the northern wastelands back then, incomparably resplendent.
People seemed to understand something.
These nine meteors all landed in the most dangerous region in the north — the Black Devil Forest!
Except, unlike Stony Mountain, the Black Devil Forest was the most central region of the north, dividing the north into two.
Hence, under the attraction of these nine meteors, the people who were originally preparing to set off for Stony Mountain were immediately diverted quite a bit.
… …
Two days later, in the City of Hope, undercurrents surged.
The reconstruction work was still in progress, but the shadows of strangers began to appear one after another in Stony Mountain.
This made the residents very uneasy.
Although the black dragon's corpse had long been stored in the paper crane by Ma Wen, there was no way to erase the traces of battle and bloodstains.
The phenomenon in Stony Mountain attracted the attention of half the continent.
The gazes of the southerners were all focused here.
Fortunately, the Three Sisters organization was powerful. Not only did they have a united Warlock team like the Devil's Hand, but Jessica herself even reached the Legend rank of Sixth Level Heaven Enlightenment.
As for Kate who had just returned, she was also a new Legend.
A territory having two Legends holding down the fort was considered rather rare.
With the help of the best healers in the city, Ma Wen's condition improved slightly.
Most of the Warlocks in Stony Mountain were only good at destruction, they weren't good at healing. Right now, he could barely walk.
But even so, he still needed to deal with the following matters.
…
"Seven Order Kindling. They are constantly resonating with each other. "
Looking at the seven dots of light in Kate's hand, Ma Wen said in a deep voice, "If you keep them together, they will produce a huge fluctuation that will be sensed by someone."
"We have to separate them. There are only three Order Kindling left in Stony Mountain."
Kate nodded slightly. She knew the importance of the Order Fire Seed, but in theory, one was enough. Having too many of them could easily cause trouble. Ma Wen said that he wanted to keep three for himself, just in case.
"I also need three of the remaining four Order Kindling."
He calmly stated his demands.
The three sisters had no objections to this.
If not for Ma Wen stepping forward, Hope City would have been destroyed by the black dragon.
Both sides had an agreement before, and he was qualified to obtain the Order Kindling.
"What about the last one?" Jessica asked.
"Let them go." Ma Wen's answer was beyond her expectations.
Kate had painstakingly obtained the Order Kindling from the extremely dangerous ancient temple. How could she let it go just like that?
Kate's eyes were also a little confused.
But at this moment, Lorry slowly opened his mouth.
"Yes, let them go."
"That's the most suitable."
Kate and Jessica looked at each other. They naturally knew their sister very well.
Lorri's Apocalyptic power was wisdom, and she could often see more clearly than mortals.
Since she also said to let the Order Kindling go, she must have her reasons.
And so, Kate hesitated for a moment and let go of her left hand.
Whoosh!
The Order Kindling suddenly flew up from the ground and directly out of the window, turning into a bright meteor and suddenly flying into the unknown distance.
The powerhouses who came after hearing the news saw the meteor flying by and immediately changed their course at the last minute and began to chase after it without stopping!
Who knew how many people would fight over this Order Kindling that had just been released!
…
In the secret room.
Kate turned her wrist and flipped out two boxes. The boxes were printed with simple patterns.
These were the boxes she found from the ancient temple.
They were the most suitable to contain the Order Kindling.
She divided the remaining five Kindling into two and handed one of the boxes to Ma Wen.
At the same time, she handed Ma Wen a cold slate.
"I'm counting on you."
She looked seriously into Ma Wen's eyes and said so.
Ma Wen nodded heavily.
…
In the evening, a plain carriage quickly left the City of Hope.
The coachman was one of the three sisters' most trusted people. In addition to Ma Wen, there was also an old acquaintance in the carriage.
The leader of the Devil's Hand, the Warlock Daisy.
She had fought alongside Ma Wen to fight against the Black Dragon Clark.
The current Ma Wen was extremely weak and indeed needed the protection of a powerful Warlock.
As for Jessica and Kate, both of them could not escape.
They had to guard Stony Mountain.
This was their home. Obtaining the Order Tinder was only for the sake of building this home better.
The carriage left the City of Hope, crossed the uneven ground of Stony Mountain, and arrived at the edge of the Sage Desert.
From then on, it changed its course to the south and went to the seemingly endless Wilderness.
There were no roads in the Wilderness. The fog was everywhere, and the coachman had to stop from time to time to adjust the direction.
And Daisy had a crystal ball that could accurately determine the direction.
The road was bumpy, but Ma Wen tightly held onto the cold slate in his arms.
Now that the Order Kindling was in his hands, he had to fulfill his other promise.
That was to wake the idiot up!
But the uniqueness of the Fate Slate made Ma Wen not know who to trust.
The Great Elven King?
That lord was said to be heavily injured, and Ibu was still wandering in the western dead zone of the Vast Sea. Even if he went to the Thousand Leaf Forest, it would be useless.
The other Legends would not be able to help at all.
This was a domain that involved the core knowledge of the universe.
If there was a group of people in Fernand who could give some pointers to Ma Wen, it would be them.
Wind Castle, Pearl Tower, Silver Scholars.
…
The carriage headed south for three days and three nights. Finally, the silhouette of a huge building could be seen in the endless yellow sand.
In the center of the building, a tall tower soared into the sky, straight into the clouds.
This was the Pearl Tower.
The Pearl Tower that gathered all of Fernand's wisdom!
Legend had it that this place was blessed by Lance, and it was protected by his divine power.
Hence, this place was a paradise for scholars. It was an eternal refuge.
However, not everyone could enter the Wind Castle.
To enter the Wind Castle, one had to at least have the title of a Grand Scholar.
But Ma Wen knew that there was another way.
"Let's go!"
He said in a low voice, "I hope the wise Silver Scholars will not disappoint me."
…
The stockpiled manuscripts had been sent out. There might be irregular updates in the next two days, but there would definitely be more. Sorry, everyone.
