Iskafanda's capital, Shami. During the meeting, Shami was a form of address for Goddess Shaqina. Hence, it was renamed Tia, which meant the water of the desert.
"I've already informed Leslie about the news from Marshal Shaleen and the rest. I've also told them about the disaster. They're having a meeting now. Let me see …" Youdiss received Leslie's five senses through the spiritual link. "Shaleen wants the Sky-battling Warrior Saint and Elder Fandral to come here together. He wants us to decide if we should form a crusade army. Prepare the airship to come over and set up the route."
"How's the exploration team?" Ye Cang asked Youdiss.
Youdiss asked through Leslie's body.
"They're not back yet. Judging from the information left behind by the exploration team, it's not easy to find the oasis," Youdiss replied to Ye Cang.
Shaleen knew that the exploration team was looking for the oasis. He told them that there was a hidden underground oasis in the direction of the oasis. It was also an ancient ruin. However, it was also very dangerous as it was filled with King-tier Sandworms and unknown threats. To them, it was also one of the most dangerous places in the Great Wasteland. Underground Oasis Traces – Aso.
After knowing the general location, Shaleen sent someone to pass the message to the exploration team. At the same time, he also knew that Iskafanda had merged with the Goddess Association and became a vassal state. Now, the north really belonged to him. Kairon, the 'friend' that you thought of could be your biggest 'enemy'. At the same time, it's also the biggest threat to the Steel Empire.
"Alright, let's discuss the formation of a crusade army. Since we know the location of the enemy's base, there's no reason for us to let it go. What do you guys think? "Ye Cang gave a normal suggestion.
"Hmph, useless," Balcon snorted. Mccullough saw that Ye Cang was not angry. Looks like he's becoming more mature.
"Xiao Wei, take him down," Ye Cang smiled.
Verali leaped forward. Before Balcon could even draw his sword, Shacily Muse's Moonlight Splendor was pressed against his neck. Verali's hands were like iron pincers as she dragged Balcon over. The Saintess furrowed her brows as she abruptly stood up. "Commander PaleSnow, I hope you can forgive Balcon for his careless words."
"Why?" Ye Cang stood up and walked towards Balcon with a smile.
Just as the Saintess was about to cast a spell, Agaloss's gaze, which was as if he was looking at a corpse, sent a chill down her spine. She did not dare to cast a spell.
"Leader Balken, I've given Pope Sagain face many times and didn't hold it against you. First of all, I'm the commander here. Secondly, Sagain isn't here. He can't protect you. Wow, how dare you talk back to me when I'm here … " Ye Cang smiled as she started to break Balcon's index finger. This was one of her favorite things to do when she was torturing her opponent but not killing him. She would break all ten of his fingers repeatedly and heal him.
Shalun and Baruto could only watch from the side. They did not dare to offend either side. To be exact, they could only stand on Ye Cang's side. At most, they would not openly argue with the Holy Church. However, both of them had a new understanding of Ye Cang. Looking at Youdiss's pleasant smile, it seems like the Goddess Association is close to the Dark Shrine. Bailie Warrior sighed, "Commander PaleSnow, I hope you can forgive Balcon for offending you. After all, we are still in the middle of a war …"
"Since Bailie Warrior is pleading for you, I'll forgive you. Apologize to me now …" Ye Cang tightened her grip on Balken's broken finger as if she was twisting a bottle cap. The intense pain made Balken break out in cold sweat. He turned around and looked at the Saintess who was nodding her head. He frowned and said, "Commander, he's my subordinate. I hope you can forgive him …"
Ye Cang signaled Verali to let go of him and returned to her seat calmly as if nothing had happened. "Where were we? Let's continue … "
The leaders of the Lion and Tiger tribes were stunned by Ye Cang's action. It's not that she broke his finger. It's just a normal punishment for the orcs. However, the main point is that she directly executed one of the three leaders of the Holy Church's knights, the Grand Crusader Commander Balken in front of the Saintess. This is openly saying that I'm not giving face to the Holy Church.
The Saintess of the Light stared at Ye Cang, especially when she saw the look of disdain in Youdiss' eyes. She was furious but she could not do anything.
During the meeting, Balken did not say anything. He remained silent. On the other side, everyone had decided to go on a crusade. However, they had to wait for Ryance and Fandral's arrival. After all, there were a few legendary heroes who had passed away. Luckily, Agaloss was there. Everything about Tia was disrupted by his pulse. The enemies would not be able to know what was going on around Tia and they would not be able to use any spying magic. Once they used magic, they would definitely receive a backlash from Agaloss's Eye of Arcane. The backlash was extremely terrifying. Once they were cursed, they would be severely injured if they were lucky. In the worst case scenario, they would go crazy and lose their magic.
Every day, Salen, Vance and Baruto would explain the true appearance and information of the Great Wasteland to everyone. Of course, Vance, as the leader of the Royal Magicians of Iskafanda, was the most experienced person here. He was the one who knew the Great Wasteland the best. He told everyone about his discovery. The oases in the Great Wasteland started to change a hundred years ago. In the beginning, undead creatures started to appear. However, they were only a small number so no one paid much attention to them. Gradually, the oases started to disappear one after another. A hundred years ago, there were hundreds of fixed oases but now, there were only dozens of them. The rest of the oases were like a joke to the Great Wasteland. They would dry up regularly and reappear at other places. Furthermore, the undead creatures were increasing and Iskafanda could not handle it anymore.
"Wait, that means they have been preparing for the disaster for almost a hundred years …" Mccullough gave it a thought. Indeed, they were well-prepared.
"Something worth mentioning is that the Ring of the Scorching Sun seems to have been occupied." Vance's words stunned everyone. They had all heard about how terrifying the heat in the Ring of the Scorching Sun was. It was comparable to magma and people would be vaporized if they entered it.
"Star of the Broken Sky – Battle Fist, Ring of the Scorching Sun, Natural Disaster …" Agaloss had a bad feeling but he could not be sure.
Ye Cang knew from Calamity that the stronghold of the evil god's followers was in the Western Wasteland. Coincidentally, the Reef Bay in the Northwest was occupied by the Alabachia tribe. She asked Youdiss to use Leslie to inform Menos about her plan and build a fortress there. That way, they could use the airship route of the Sand Sea Village to travel there and amass a troop to launch a fatal attack at the enemy's back.
