Compared to something powered by mana gems, the Wizard Union wouldn’t feel safe flying in a creature like White Cloud.

They just couldn’t believe White Cloud was capable.

“Master Bennett, all the expenses will be covered by the wizard union and we will give you satisfying amounts of credit points as well!” Wizard Hume added.

Although Abel didn’t really want to lend out his skyships, he couldn’t reject since Wizard Hume had asked him personally.

Also, the wizard union’s credit points were also quite useful to him at the moment, considering how many things he had access to with his current status.

“Wizard Hume, how many sky ships does the union need?” Abel thought for a moment and said.

“Master Bennett, we need 9, but if that’s not possible, then lend us as much as you possibly can!” Wizard Hume said, surprised.

They had a good relationship with each other, so they could just get straight to the point.

“Research spirit, order sky ships numbered 1 to 9 to come back!” Abel called in the lounge.

“Ok Wizard Hume, just wait a bit and the sky ships will arrive in a moment!” Abel smiled.

There were 12 sky ships above the potion maker union, and Abel felt like that was too much.

It was just that they were too valuable to let go.

The Judson family who served under Abel was hard at work every day. Since Abel did not have a military under him in the elves, all of the elves manning those skyships were from the Judson family.

The Judson family was a business family, so their military forces were limited. The 12 sky ships had almost taken up all their men.

Still, Abel treated the Judson family quite well. One of the skyships has become the Judson family’s trading ship.

The skyships had dimensional storage ability. Its inventory could store up to ten thousand warriors. If they were used to stock up trading resources, just a single one could go against a huge team.

This forced the Judson family to grow at an immense rate to cultivate elves with the ability to operate skyships.

Lending out sky ships also didn’t affect Abel too much. After all, he could get a new one every month.

“Wizard Hume, you can organise the men to operate those sky ships so I can preserve my elves!” Abel smiled and reminded.

“No problem. The wizard union has already cultivated a team. It was just that the dwarves were a little slow in making sky ships for us!” Wizard Hume laughed.

“Wizard Hume, can I take a look at a map of the Lance Continent?” Abel added casually.

“Of course, there isn’t much there!” Wizard Hume nodded.

He then took out an old parchment from his portal bag and handed it to Abel.

It was not a detailed map, but it was unlike any other map he saw. Not only was the Lance Continent marked on the map, but it also included the surrounding 3 sub Continent and the rough direction of the Central Continent.

It seems like it was just a part of a bigger map. There weren’t even any markings of valleys, rivers, or hills.

The area this map covered was too big. It only had the rough shape of the Lance Continent and its shoreline.

Its distance from the Central Continent was blanked out with the marking of the sea.

“We copied this map from an ancient sight back in the day. The original map was too big, so only copied where the Lance Continent is!” Wizard Hume explained.

Abel connected to the research spirit and recorded this map with his power of will.

He then sent it off to his Fire tooth battle fort’s database to compare with its ancient map.

These days, Fire Tooth had an updated map of the entire Central Continent, and its monogram was drastically improved.

“Master, skyships numbered 1 to 9 are ready on your command!” The research spirit sounded.

“Wizard Hume, please tell the captain to come in and authorise himself!” Abel smiled.

“Master Bennett, thank you so much!” Wizard Hume stood up and bowed.

The 9 sky ships landed on a plane, and all the elves on it were dismissed. Afterward, the research spirit ordered the repair robots on the ships.

They’ve swapped out all the top-level gems to intermediate ones, which was a must.

As you know, the wizards would immediately realize something different when they saw Abel’s gems.

It wouldn’t be as shocking if they only came across one top-level gem with such purity, but seeing thousands of them together would be hard to explain.

Although going to the Lance Continent would take vast amounts of gems. The wizard union would take care of it anyway.

After Abel sent off the happy Wizard Hume, the sky was starting to get dark. Just when he was growing disappointed in his druid soul, a message emerged.

“My lord, we must succeed in our operations, please shine your glory on the Lance Continent again!”

Abel immediately knew it was to do with the Holy Kingdom.

He connected to the owner of this prayer through his crystal angel statue. It was a young man with luxurious noble clothes in a chamber looking at an emotionless statue of a god.

“No, this is not the Holy Kingdom!” Abel got a special feeling. This prayer was not coming from the direction of the Holy Kingdom. It was from a human’s territory.

He did not make a move immediately. Instead, he marked out this young nobleman named Barney and investigated his history.

He was a baron, not one of high status, but he was connected to the Holy Light Kingdom.

His other identity was a reporter of the Holy Kingdom, and he was there to take care of a special mission.

If the Lance Continent needed to connect with the Holy Kingdom, they would do so through a reporter.

His identity was top secret, so he settled up a connection circle under his castle to only be used at the most crucial moments.

This way, Barney was the safest reporter of the Holy Kingdom. As long as he kept his mouth shut, no one would doubt him.

Also, unless someone was given permission, that communication circle could not reach the Holy Kingdom.

Although teleportation circles were rare among nobles, communication circles were quite common, so he also would not attract any attention by doing so.

Abel didn’t know, but he was waiting for Barney to connect with the other reporters.

If Abel wanted a follower who was soul-bound to him like Barney to die, all he needed was to feed him some poison through the soul link.

This was why Abel was not worried about Barney escaping from him.

“It’s too bad most of my prayers are from normal people. If I have had holy knights followers, I could get more news!” Abel thought to himself.

Maybe it was because of loyalty, but most of his prayers were from normal people, so their information was almost useless.

Suddenly, his druid soul sounded again. Maybe it had another discovery.

Abel connected with it and sensed a holy knight. It was one of the 2000 souls he granted.

His name was Cafford, and he was granted a rank 20 soul. He was one of the most outstanding ones in his generation of holy knights.

He was taken in as a disciple by a mad knight to take care of some extraordinary missions.

Some of them were in the Lance Continent. It was at that moment, Abel realized something different about the souls he granted. The crystal angel statue recorded everything they did and thought they made.

It was just that they were a little bit chaotic to sift through.

Since Abel had commanded his druid soul to do the work, all the information related to the Lance Continent was filtered out and displayed.

Abel noticed a group of ingredients made for the Lance Continent.

Due to the tight restrictions of the Holy kingdom, it was almost impossible for its citizens to even go outside of the Guardian Wings.

There was no way they could go against the Holy Kingdom or the Demon from beyond, so there wasn’t much security within the Holy Kingdom itself.

All the knights in the Holy Kingdom knew their information would not leak out unless their god stopped protecting them.

They would not expect Abel to be capable of analyzing their plans for the Lance Continent.

It was a massive plan, 300 years in the making, and they had only done so through slowly incorporating their men into the Lance Continent.

It was extremely hard to connect with a subcontinent due to their lack of information exchange and the massive power required to ignite a super teleportation circle.

This gave the Holy Kingdom an opportunity. They needed the autonomy of subcontinents.

Their plan began as soon as they successfully penetrated the Lance Continent. The first was killing the prince. The second was poisoning the king.

Soon, a new prince claimed the throne with the holy armor of the demon from beyond.

Abel immediately got a rough idea about what was going on. It was not far from what the Wizard union was speculating. Emperor Harvey started everything.

The only thing the Wizard union didn’t know was the Holy Armour. It had a similar function as the Barbarian’s totem pole, maybe even more powerful.

Abel was puzzled. He could not tell the Wizard Union about this because he would not be able to explain how he got this information.

At the same time, he was afraid that the Lance Continent would become extremely loyal to the Holy kingdom after hundreds of years of indoctrination. Trying to take it back would be a huge war for the Wizard Union.

Although the Wizard union has already decided to send men to the Lance Continent, it could still take up to 2 years considering their distance and the speed of those skyships.

If they ran into trouble during the journey, it might take even longer.

2 years was enough to brainwash countless citizens for the Holy Kingdom. Therefore it would be useless even if the Wizard Union could successfully set up their super teleportation circles.
