Baiyi had two interpretations of the War God's words. One was that he had guessed wrongly, and the War God had merely brushed him off with a few words, leaving him to sort things out on his own. The other was that the War God had tacitly agreed to Baiyi's guess, hoping that Baiyi would be the one to investigate the matter.
Baiyi was leaning toward the second theory. The main reason was that the War God had reminded him to be prepared. The War God had hinted that if the War God had merely brushed him off, there would have been no need for him to do so.
'But what do I need to be prepared for? Prepare for what? ' The War God's words were hard to understand. 'As expected of a true God; he's always good at these kinds of tricks.'
Of course, considering the War God's talkative nature, there was a chance that he had guessed wrongly. However, even though the War God was a talkative man with a questionable sense of aesthetics, he had always been friendly toward Baiyi. Baiyi believed that the War God was not a boring person.
Either way, Baiyi would have to make a trip to Duat. That was what the War God had told him.
'I really don't want to go to a place full of bones … If I really have to go, I'll have to ask the Empire to raise the price,' Baiyi thought to himself. He left Attie's bedside and walked to his desk. He was going to write a letter to the Southern Duke, telling him to open his mouth wider.
However, just as he was about to write, he noticed an open diary on the desk. He glanced at it and saw the following words:
'October 21st. Sunny. Relax.'
'Finally, my long journey is over. I'm so tired. I want to have a good sleep, but now's not the time. My sisters are coming for a gathering tonight, so I need to cook for them. I haven't seen them for so long; they must miss my cooking, right? Heehee. '
'Everyone's so full! So satisfied! But Mia is leaving soon, and she's with Mordred. I'm so worried about them … I really want to lend her the War God's Sword. Master and Lord War God won't blame me for having such thoughts, right?'
'Master came to see me tonight! I'm so happy! I love Master the most! But he only stayed for a while, and he didn't even stay for the night … Really? Does Master not like me at all? He dotes on Mia more, doesn't he? But I heard people say that he likes short girls. Is it because I've grown taller? Sob sob, what should I do … "
That page was filled with Attie's standard Southern language. When Baiyi saw it, he was overwhelmed with emotions and a little embarrassed. Out of respect for the privacy of others, he did not flip to the first part of the book. Since when did this little girl develop the habit of memorizing things like that? In the past, whenever she was asked to write an essay or something when she was young, she would always be very resistant. It was as if she wanted to kill her. She would never do it seriously. There was even a time when she drew a kitten and handed it in to get beaten.
But now, it seemed that she had also changed from the Kitty Cat Maid of the past to an obedient and sensible girl. She was considerate and good at taking care of others … Such a girl was really cute.
With that in mind, Baiyi made up his mind. He hastily wrote the letter, but it did not contain any specific requests. He only told the Southern Duke to increase his offer based on the situation. After sending the letter number to the Southern Duke, Baiyi used magic to summon a pigeon and sent it to the Southern Duke. After that, Baiyi returned to his seat beside Attie's bed and quietly watched over her.
She woke up at dawn the next day, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Baiyi sitting on her bed.
"Master?" She asked in surprise.
"Yes. I've been worried about you, so I didn't dare to leave. How are you feeling? Do you still feel dizzy? "Baiyi asked, concerned.
She shook her head and smiled sweetly. "It's fine. Lord War God loves me very much …" As she spoke, she lowered her head and peeked under the blanket. When she saw that he was still dressed neatly, a look of disappointment appeared on her face.
'What kind of expectations do you have?!'
After comforting and teasing Attie for a while, Baiyi prepared to leave. He still had a lot of work to do, and he had already wasted an entire night's worth of time.
Of course, when he said 'wasted', he meant 'wasted', not 'wasted'.
The expedition to Duat was not an easy task, so he had to prepare accordingly. However, before that, there was something more important that he had to do. Today was the day his youngest daughter, Mia, would lead her team to the expedition. Since he was still at Da Xue, he had no reason not to see her off.
However, out of concern for his reputation among the students, Baiyi did not see her off too closely. Instead, he stood at a distance and watched as the students lined up neatly on the campus square. Mia and Mordred stood at the very front of the line, with a solemn expression on their faces.
Mordred did not choose the loli form that she wore in front of her friends. Instead, she chose to look like a young, beautiful girl. She wore a grayish-white armor, and she held a horned helmet in her arms. This was a gift from Baiyi on her fortieth birthday. At the time, Mordred had thought that Baiyi was wearing a suit of armor, so she, as his daughter, should have one as well. Baiyi did not reject her request, and instead, he went to collect a large number of expensive materials. Together with the new materials produced by the Alchemist Walker, the Engineer Walker was in charge of the design, and the Blacksmith Walker personally worked on it. After three months, the armor was made for Mordred.
The armor was equipped with many new technologies that had yet to be seen in the world, such as autonomous movement, active protective shields, shapeshifting, and many other fantastic functions. Even if Mordred transformed into her dragon form, the armor would not need to be taken off. Instead, it would transform with her.
In short, this armor, which was the embodiment of the knowledge of three Voidwalkers, was a piece of cutting-edge black technology. It was comparable to the legendary divine weapons, and the materials used to make it were not cheap. It was a very generous gift. The Engineer Walker and the Blacksmith Walker had mentioned a few days ago was based on this armor, but how could such a thing be mass-produced so easily?
Even the Voidwalkers did not have access to such a good thing, so it was a good thing for the little brat. However, the Voidwalkers were optimistic. After all, with their current strength, the improvement of the armor was almost negligible. Besides, their ultimate goal was not to hide in their armor for the rest of their lives, so naturally, they did not care about the quality of this substitute. As long as they could make do with it, they would be happy.
Now that he saw her wearing the armor and traveling with Mia, Baiyi felt that it was all worth it. There was nothing more important than safety. With such a suit of armor, he felt a lot more at ease.
Other than his students and daughter, there was also a row of two-meter-tall marionettes neatly arranged at the end of the formation. They were brought by the Faculty of Engineering. In the sky, there were also five giant dragons, which were brought by the Dragon Rider Academy. If one took into account Mia and Mordred's own strength, as well as the ordinary teachers who were equally powerful, and the students who had a solid foundation and outstanding talent, this cultivation group of less than a thousand people would be more powerful than most armies. It would be more than enough to fight a local war.
Baiyi could not help but think that if he were to really fall out with the Empire one day, he could bring out all of Da Xue's assets. Even without the help of the Voidwalkers, the Imperial Army would not be able to defeat them. However, this was just a thought. If a war were to break out, not all of the students would be on his side, and their overall strength would be greatly reduced.
Finally, when the preparation was over, the students began to walk towards the portal that would lead them to the training grounds. Mia and Mordred were at the back of the group, and when it was their turn, they turned around and waved at Baiyi, who was standing in the distance, with a satisfied smile on their faces. Then, they walked into the portal and disappeared into it.
After sending off his daughter, Baiyi got down to business. He needed to bring a few helpers for this expedition. After all, those undead seemed to have mastered some Laws of Power, and they would not be easy to deal with. Baiyi decided to bring the Lich Walker with him.
He was an expert in this field, but if he brought the Lich Walker, he would not be able to bring the Cleric Walker, the Paladin Walker, or the Cleric Walker. He would have to choose someone from the neutral camp, such as the Hitman Walker. Since Baiyi's teacher did not care much about such things, he decided to bring the Scholar Walker with him. As for the other support types, Baiyi decided to bring one as well, just in case. The Blacksmith Walker and the Engineer Walker would do. Both of them had created many new toys in the past ten years, but considering that they were going to be fighting a sea of undead, the Blacksmith Walker's toys would be more suitable.
As for which girl to bring along, Baiyi decided to leave it up to them. The three of them had their own rotation schedules and protocols, so Baiyi did not really care much about them, as long as they were not fairies. This was not a safe mission, anyway, and if the fairy came along, she might cause a lot of trouble. The Assassin Walker, on the other hand, was the most suitable candidate for this mission, because there was always a need to gather information. Although Baiyi already had the Hitman Walker with him, it was still impossible to rely on him to gather information. Baiyi had chosen the Hitman Walker to be a meat shield that would attract the enemy's firepower.
With that, the name list was more or less finalized. The Hitman Walker, the Lich Walker, the Scholar Walker, the Blacksmith Walker, and one of the Hitman Walker. Baiyi himself was also included.
Although there were only six of them, if the six of them were to really fight, tsk tsk, let alone a country, if the strength of the Duat Dimension was not strong enough, it was very possible that the six of them would wipe out the entire Duat Dimension.
