Chapter 152: Reactivating the High Tower
"Reactivating the High Tower, what does that mean?"
Enzo asked as the totem of the Ring of the World on his palm slowly faded away.
Seeing this, the soul of the High Tower sighed in relief, realizing his words had made an impact. He quickly explained, "Mr. Enzo, although the High Tower is severely damaged, the core has remained intact. With enough materials and energy, I can repair the High Tower. Once restored, you will control it, allowing you to train countless powerful legions, dominate the entire barren mountain region, and even expand further to conquer the Blue Sea and the desert."
"Further still, seize the outer domains and make the Crimson Star Tribe the ruling Crimson Star clan!"
The vision described by the High Tower soul was grand and inspiring.
However, Enzo remained calm and said, "I can agree to your request. But I have one condition that I hope you will accept."
The High Tower soul quickly asked, "What is the condition?"
Enzo extended his hand, and a glimmer appeared at his fingertip. On closer inspection, it was a beast's mark, carrying an irresistible authority, and it was stamped onto the High Tower soul's body.
The Beast God Will!
The enslavement power granted by Rexfit was in effect once more.
Audrey, standing beside them, trembled with apparent excitement.
While it had been painful when she was enslaved alone, witnessing someone else being enslaved seemed to ease her own suffering.
That made her feel much lighter and happier.
Faced with the Beast God will, the High Tower soul had no power to resist.
Enzo easily left the mark and felt that he could make the High Tower soul's spirit explode at any moment. He smiled and said, "Now, I can trust what you say."
The soul of the High Tower, disheartened, sighed and said, "Mr. Enzo, your methods are quite unexpected."
Enzo paid no mind to the plight of the servant and commanded, "Now, get out of Dilly's body."
The High Tower soul, looking aggrieved, responded, "Mr. Enzo, my soul has been severely damaged and needs to rely on Dilly to survive. If I leave now, I might not make it."
Hearing this, Enzo turned to Mina and said, "Mr. Mina, I'm counting on you."
Mina was unmoved, shaking his head. "Enzo, you can't do that. The Water of Life is extremely precious. How can it be used on someone like him? Instead, I know a highly skilled artisan who can help you rebuild the High Tower and create a guardian for it who will be completely loyal to you.
Enzo ignored Mina's objections and said, "One water basin per day."
Mina quickly changed his tune, saying, "No problem! Enzo, don't worry. As long as I'm here, I'll make sure his soul doesn't have any issues!"
Mina's sudden shift startled both Audrey and the High Tower soul.
Additionally, when did the Water of Life become something one could describe in terms of water basins?
Normally, potion masters would be overjoyed to obtain a single drop, but here it seemed as if it were as common as weeds by the roadside—available in any quantity.
Audrey realized that Enzo and the Crimson Star Tribe were full of mysteries.
"Perhaps I should learn more about this."
Audrey thought to herself and promptly left the room.
Transforming into a bird, she flew around the Crimson Star Tribe's camp. The more she saw, the more shocked she became, and a new question arose—
Could this really be a tribe from the barren mountain region?
If not for the slightly smaller scale, she would have thought this was the royal city of an external realm kingdom.
How did Enzo achieve this?
Setting aside the shock Audrey felt at that moment, under Enzo's command, the spirit of the High Tower had to leave Dilly and then follow Mina to the Potion Hut.
Before long, Dilly woke up.
Seeing Enzo standing nearby, she immediately understood and expressed her gratitude, saying, "Thank you. You've saved me once again."
Enzo replied, "You're welcome."
He was also a bit curious and asked, "Why did the spirit of the High Tower possess you?"
Dilly didn't hide anything and answered honestly, "Perhaps it's because I have the bloodline of the former Tower Tribe.
Enzo nodded and said, "I see. Dilly, you should rest well. If you need anything, you can find Amy and the others. If they can't help, you can come to me."
Dilly nodded.
As Enzo turned to leave, Dilly suddenly called out to him, "Enzo, wait a moment."
Enzo turned back and asked, "What's wrong?"
Dilly abruptly sat up on the bed and quickly hugged Enzo, closing her eyes and pressing her soft lips against his. Her movements were awkward and inexperienced, so much so that Enzo could only feel the girl's nervousness and the dryness of her lips.
He had to take the initiative and said, "Dilly, open your mouth."
Dilly instinctively opened her mouth and immediately felt Enzo's tongue forcefully enter, tightly pressing against her tongue. Her lips were moistened, and the spiritual pleasure made her feel hot and trembling all over.
Is this the pleasure of delight?
At this moment, Dilly had to admit she enjoyed this feeling.
However, Enzo suddenly let go of her.
Dilly opened her eyes, feeling tense, and asked, "Enzo, what's wrong?"
Seeing Dilly's intense desire and realizing she wasn't satisfied, Enzo asked directly, "Do you want more?"
Dilly nodded, "Yes."
Enzo smiled, leaned close to Dilly's ear, and whispered, "Not now. Amy and Tia are probably about to visit you. Come find me tonight, and let Amy teach you what to do."
Dilly's face turned red as she seemed to understand, but she still answered, "Okay."
Enzo smiled, tasted Dilly's tender lips again, and said gently, "I'll wait for you tonight."
With that, Enzo left. Dilly touched her lips, full of anticipation.
...
In the external realm.
Or rather, the Dark Night Forest, which was the region where the Solar Dynasty is located.
This term was used by the tribes from areas like the barren mountain and Blue Sea to refer to places outside their own regions.
In fact, if someone could look from above, they would see that the barren mountain, Blue Sea, desert, and other regions are connected together. They are at the edge of a continent, a peninsula jutting out from the mainland. The barren mountain area is centrally located, with a desert to the east and, further east, a vast forest.
This vast forest was much larger than the entire peninsula where the barren mountain area was located.
However, the forest appeared to be shrouded in darkness.
It appeared dark even in daylight, which is why it is called the Dark Night Forest.
Additionally, there is another fact.
The peninsula where the barren mountain area was located only borders the Dark Night Forest.
In the Dark Night Forest's royal tribal members' terminology, the peninsula where the barren mountain area is situated is specifically referred to as the "Barren Peninsula" indicating that it is a desolate place.
At this moment, in the northern-central part of the Dark Night Forest, among the dense mountain ranges.
A massive ten-meter-long wooden ship was sailing into a valley along a river. The valley's sides were lined with densely packed wooden houses, with some built atop large trees and others hollowed out from the trees themselves, becoming treehouses.
At the deepest part of the valley was a large treehouse.
In front of the treehouse sat three people.
One was a burly man draped in supernatural beast hides, another was a blue-skinned person carrying a bow and arrow, and the third was a seductive woman with a fluffy tail.
The three appeared to be engaged in conversation.
However, as the large ship entered the valley, the blue-skinned person and the beastkin woman excused themselves.
Only the burly man in the center stood up, walked towards the ship, and laughed heartily, "Trelina, my dear daughter, you're finally back!"
From the ship's cabin, Trelina helped Ix out.
She urgently shouted, "Lord Father, please help Commander Ix!"
The burly man's expression changed dramatically, and he immediately ordered for Ix to be carried to the tribe's Potion Master for treatment. Then he asked Trelina, "What happened?"
Trelina reported, "Father, Commander Ix and I found the remains of the High Tower…"
She detailed the events, and when she mentioned the name Rexfit, the burly man's pupils noticeably contracted, showing he realized something significant.
However, he was also puzzled and asked, "If that's the case, why is Ix so severely injured?"
According to Trelina, neither she nor Ix had sustained any injuries at the High Tower ruins.
Trelina hurriedly informed him, "It was the Ice Moon Royal Family. They destroyed the spatial passage Commander Ix had opened. Furthermore, a barrier has appeared at the border between the Dark Night Forest and the Barren Peninsula. To break through the barrier, Commander Ix expended most of his strength, which allowed the Ice Moon Royal Family to succeed in their ambush!"
"Ice Moon Royal Family, barrier..."
The burly man muttered, clearly agitated.
He ordered, "Trelina, you should rest for now. I need to gather all the leaders and priests of the Solar Dynasty to hold a meeting and discuss this matter."
With that, he strode away.
Meanwhile, in another prosperous area of the Solar Dynasty, the royal leader Mikelov looked grim, muttering, "Colin and Veena actually died on the Barren Peninsula. Not only did they fail to retrieve the Beast God clan's giant egg, but they also lost the Sunfire Sword! What useless fools."
"But I already know who is responsible for Colin and Veena's failure!"
"Crue!"
"Humph, just wait!"
In the basin in front of Mikelov, a face appeared—it was the face of Crue, the priest of the Chagga Tribe.
