Chapter 275 The ancient god was truly spouting nonsense

They were old, and Cloudview County was their final refuge. Fighting for Cloudview County was their wish!

On the battlefield, they appeared so frail compared to the robust Druid warriors, yet they charged forward without hesitation!

"Spear formation! Spear formation!"

They lifted their heads, above them the Druids' magic unleashed thunder and fire upon them, yet they roared with laughter in the face of danger.

Nathan and Luna charged forward too!

They couldn't defeat the twenty-plus Competent Force, but they were fearless!

Suddenly.

Everyone on the battlefield froze, their eyes widening in shock.

In the snowy daylight, the sky turned.

The sky blazed red as blood.

A fierce wind blew, turning the falling snow into eerie red flakes.

The Druids looked up, seeing an old man in a red robe, holding a staff, his arms open wide. His psychic powers stirred the energy of the heavens and earth, changing the color of the sky!

His aged voice echoed over Border town!

"I have seen."

"I have heard."

His voice seemed magical!

The ground trembled, vines burst from the earth forming a massive wall, protecting the elders of Glory City!

His voice still rang out.

"Cloudview County may become a thing of the past, but not today!"

"The fighting spirit of Blackwood may quiet down, but not today!"

"This land will be stained red, and your blood, Druids, will make Cloudview County a forbidden zone."

"A Blackwood forbidden zone!"

"Boom! Boom!"

The earth itself was in motion.

Ancient trees and stone beasts burst from the soil, rushing past the hundred elders of Glory City towards the battlefield!

Sturdy roots pierced through the bodies of the Druids at the forefront!

.....

In the heart of the imperial capital, a magnificent palace floated above the city center. Inside, the court was filled with officials, all gazing intently at the center of the grand hall.

There stood Edward from Blackwood. Accompanying him were several mathematicians from Cloudview County, who had brought with them an Eight Trigrams board and other mystical devices capable of divining the secrets of the universe. As the mathematicians demonstrated their powers, an image materialized before the eyes of the assembled court.

It depicted everything happening at the Azure Cloud Border town.

Everyone saw it.

Atop the town walls stood a couple, seemingly just returned from farming, surrounded by nearly a hundred elderly warriors, their lives hanging by a thread. Before them, the entire town seemed minuscule against the advancing army of Druids, as if the city would crumble with their every step forward.

"Your Majesty! I wish to lead our forces to Cloudview County and battle the Druids!"

The scene had a profound impact on all who witnessed it. They had heard rumors that one man, Blackwood Nathan, still stood defiant on the town walls, but seeing it was something else entirely.

Who could have imagined that on this forsaken frontier, someone would stand alone against a million Druids? Who knew what pressures Nathan faced every day?

Among the military leaders, General Owen Lewis, trained at Radiant Sky Grotto, clenched his teeth and stepped forward, kneeling before the ancient god.

As he made his plea, more warriors loyal to Owen followed suit, kneeling and begging, "Please, Your Majesty, command us to fight the Druids and reclaim our lands!"

Their passionate pleas, however, did not seem to stir the figure behind the royal curtain.

Again, they pleaded loudly.

This time, even the civil officials, seeing the urgency, knelt down. In the image, less than a hundred elderly warriors leaped from the walls, forming a spear formation, standing tall as they charged into battle alongside Nathan.

The scene turned blood-red, and the mathematicians spat blood, their vision ending there.

The court was left in suspense, not knowing what would happen next, but they heard that the people of Blackwood were still willing to fight!

Perhaps every person in Blackwood would stand at the very front of the border, defending the sold-off Cloudview County and Border town.

Perhaps...

Such iron-willed men and families were rare in the empire.

"Please, Your Majesty, give the order!"

More people knelt in the hall, their cries loud, even though they knew a deal had been struck and to go back on it would be a slap in the face to the ancient god, they still pleaded.

Edward, standing in the center, had tears in his eyes. In this cold imperial capital, there were still those willing to stand up!

Moments later.

Finally, there was a stir behind the curtain, and the ancient god spoke with a deep voice, immediately darkening Edward's expression.

"We are aware of the border situation."

"However, Grand Tutor Gilbert and the north have been at war with the Druids for two thousand years, and the state of our nation cannot sustain another war with them."

"Yet, within our Emerald Empire, we have families as loyal as Blackwood, which brings us great comfort."

"Owen."

As the ancient god spoke, the burly, bald-headed warrior in armor bowed and accepted the command, "At your service!"

"Take our decree to Cloudview County and order the Druids to cease their aggression. Our empire's lands are vast, and the north has new territories inexhaustible. Blackwood may choose a new place to settle. We hereby grant Blackwood the hereditary title of Duke, in recognition of their iron-blooded loyalty to our Emerald Empire."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"..."

Owen had received his orders and was leading the dazed Edward out of the grand hall.

Even as they reached the open sky, Edward still appeared bewildered. He blankly asked Owen, "What nonsense was that mongrel spouting on the jade steps just now?"

"You..."

With just one word, Owen's face changed dramatically. He quickly covered Edward's mouth, "Kid, are you trying to get us killed? The entire imperial capital is filled with Lance's spies. If the emperor hears what you just said, Blackwood is done for!"

Edward looked at Owen strangely, making Owen's scalp tingle. Edward pulled Owen's hand away and pointed at the so-called 'heavenly palace', questioning, "So General Owen, you follow this kind of absurd trash? Aren't you tired?"

"I..."

Owen was at a loss for words. He took a deep breath, his expression solemn, "Let's go, I'll take you back to Blackwood. Maybe..."

He wanted to say maybe they could still prevent the war in Cloudview County, but he just sighed deeply.

The ancient god was truly spouting nonsense.

From the imperial capital back to Cloudview County, even he would need several days.

Suddenly, Owen was startled as Edward turned around and headed back towards the grand hall!

Everyone in the grand hall was shocked, all the old foxes there could see the ancient god's intentions. The ancient god had completely abandoned the southern border, totally forsaking Blackwood!

Just as they feared Edward from Cloudview County might spout more nonsense.

They saw Edward bowing towards the steps above, his voice loud as he laughed wildly.

"I was in such a hurry earlier, I, a commoner, forgot to give thanks!"
