Chapter 1786: Leaving And Staying

All the representatives showed how gravely they treated this crisis. Within half a day, over 300 formation masters were sent to Chaos City from all the races to assist Chaos City, and they were all above the 5th-tier. They were centralized and dispatched by Chaos City after they arrived.

Although these formation masters were already notified, and knew the objective of their current trip, when they passed through that creepy stone door and saw that indescribable thing in the seal spell formation, fear and nausea still made their expressions change. Two lowly 5th-tier formation masters even fainted on the spot due to fear.

“Carry them out and select two more to come in instead.” Novan looked at the formation masters who couldn’t adapt immediately, and said in a grave voice, “Ladies and gentlemen! Today, we are going to fight for Norland Continent and reseal this fellow! Fear is its weapon. To defeat it, our first step is to eliminate our fear. We already have nowhere to retreat, and we don’t have much time left. Therefore, every one of you has to complete every mission handed to you without any mistakes!

“You all are the heroes of the Norland Continent, but I hope our descendants won’t have to use the words ‘die a hero’s death’ to describe us. Can you all do that?”

“Yes!” all the formation masters answered in unison with a glow in their eyes and excited expressions. Their fear of that indescribable thing was eradicated all at once.

“This is a powerhouse who knows how to be a leader.” Jonas looked at Novan with a praising look.

“Apparently, he’s the principal of one of their schools here,” a formation master at his side spoke softly.

“Mr. Jonas, can you please give them their tasks? They are the best formation masters on the Norland Continent.” Novan approached him. Because manpower was ample, many of these selected formation masters were 8th-tier and 9th-tier. There even was a 10th-tier formation master from the Magus Tower.

Jonas was also sizing up these formation masters. Frankly speaking, their quantity and quality had both shocked him.

The Moon Nation only had five formation masters above the 7th-tier, including him. However, there were 30 of them here. There were one 10th-tier formation master and four 9th-tier ones.

“We have already deciphered the spell formation. Time is limited, so we intended to reproduce the exact same spell formation. However, we could only do it on the exterior of the original seal spell formation, so we need to double the original spell formation…” Jonas didn’t have an opening speech. He told all the formation masters present the current situation directly, and began to assign their tasks to them.

Soon, this group of the Norland Continent’s best formation masters began to get busy under Jonas’ instructions. They cleared the area, opened up the crates with materials, and carved out the runes…

After Jonas assigned the jobs to the formation masters, he turned to say to Novan, “I need to see all the materials delivered to the cave’s entrance within three hours. If we’re short of certain materials, then I’ll suggest you all should consider how to evacuate the civilians first.”

“Alright.” Novan nodded and turned to walk out of the cave.

In the city lord’s castle, the staff members responsible for receiving the materials were almost all dashing about. The materials that were sent from the races needed to be accepted and classified before they were sent to the Thunderstorm Mountains with the fastest speed.

Michael took charge personally, and watched over the materials.

A staff member approached with sweat all over his forehead. “My lord, we are short of half of the amount of the bloodstones needed. The goblins said they have already taken out all of their stockpile, and are mining it urgently right now. However, the bloodstone mine is almost depleted, and it hasn’t been mined for years, so I’m afraid we might not be able to reach the target amount in a short period of time.”

“We can’t do without any of the spell formation’s materials. Inform all the races immediately. Tell them that they have to collect bloodstones with all their means. We have to amass enough of them,” Michael said with a grave expression.

“Yes.” The staff member jogged away.

“My Lord, Miss Scheer from the Buffett Bank sends over a list. She said that they have a batch of spell formation’s materials. If the city lord has a need for them, you can make requisition for them at any time.” Soon after, another staff member ran over, and presented a neatly folded list.

Michael wasn’t surprised that Scheer knew about this. Given Buffett Bank’s influence on the Norland Continent, it would be odd if she didn’t know such an important matter.

He quickly flipped through the list. It was a few pages long, and many materials were listed with their numbers indicated carefully.

“They even have so many materials for making spell formations and refining devices. It indeed isn’t rumors that the Buffett Bank’s riches could rival a country’s.” Michael raised his eyebrows slightly. His gaze quickly came to a certain line on the third page and halted there. His eyes lit up as he said to that staff member who sent the list over, “Tell Labelle that we don’t have to send the expedited message anymore. We’ve got the bloodstones. You all hasten your counting and see if we can find any materials that we are short of on this list. We can go to the Buffett Manor to get them.”

The Buffett Manor.

Ian sat by the lake with a fishing rod. He leaned in the recliner leisurely.

“Grandfather, I have already made the appropriate arrangements for our people. We will evacuate from Chaos City today and tomorrow. Grandmother’s and your steeds are prepared too. You can leave right now.” Scheer stood at the side with a nervous expression.

“I’m not going.” Ian looked at the slightly bobbing buoy on the water’s surface, and calmly said, “I will wait right here.”

“But…”

“You don’t have to persuade me. If Chaos City is lost, where else can we hide on the Norland Continent?” Ian smiled. “I have been to many places when I was young, those where I should have gone, and those that I shouldn’t have. Now, I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to fish here.”

“I’m not going, either. What have I not seen or enjoyed in this life? I’m old now. I can’t move, and I don’t want to move.” A noble old lady walked over slowly, and placed her hand on Ian’s shoulder, smiling gently.

“Grandmother.” Scheer pursed her lips. She didn’t know what to say.

“Go make yourself busy, child. If the worst really happens, they will need you as their main support.” Ian looked up at Scheer, and apologetically said, “I’m sorry that I toss this responsibility to you.”

“I believe it will all be fine. The city lord and the others will definitely stop that thing,” Scheer, who quickly regained her calm expression, said with conviction before bidding her farewell and left.

“This child. You shouldn’t have tossed this big family to her back then.” The old lady looked at Scheer’s back with heartache.

“If our sons had been capable, we wouldn’t have let Scheer suffer then.” Ian sighed before patting that hand on his shoulder.

The two old people smiled at each other. They only had each other in their eyes.

Scheer came out of the courtyard, and calmly ordered, “Evacuate according to the plan. Remember, do not let anyone see that our whole family is moving away.”
