Chapter 1434: Current Condition
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Meanwhile, the Howling Castle in the front lines was having better luck with no God Rank knights attacking.
It seemed like the Holy Kingdom was not aware of the fact that something big had happened to the Wizard Union, but soon, another god asked if the wizard had returned.
Even with their top treasure gone, they still had to stay on duty!
The God Rank wizards also did not have much hope for the Intelligence Department, so they spread out through the continents, with only a few of them guarding their Headquarters.
Still, considering the size of just the central continent, it would take at least ten years for the wizards to search through all of it.
——
Three days after the incident, Abel received a request from Wizard Smith to search through his faithful grounds. Of course, Wizard Smith was the only one who asked.
At the same time, the five gods in the God Alliance received similar requests.
Abel knew exactly what was happening, so he did not reject Wizard Smith. After all, he knew the Wizard Union would always suspect him, no matter what else happened.
Ever since the dwarves had received the okay from Abel, they began taking requests from the Wizard Union again.
Although Abel never thought of it as an order, as it was supposed to be a business deal, King Yoby and WIzard Fara took it as a command.
Still, they were more confident when asking the Wizard Union for pay. After all, they were living a much better life and they were no longer embarrassed being a part of Abel’s side.
Status was just a name, and Abel gave them a lot of autonomy.
Soon, ten thousand dwarves were sent to the Warding Wall to repair and the Wizard Union sent some God Rank wizards to protect them so Abel wouldn’t get angry.
As soon as a God Rank Knight decided to invade, the dwarves would also be called back!
This was something the dwarves could not even dream of in the past, but now they had finally regained their freedom.
Since the Wizard Union was doing business on equal terms with the dwarves, the dwarves’ status in the central continent also grew, and the dwarves started to get even busier.
——
Meanwhile, in the Holy Kingdom’s central temple…
Seven God Rank Knights were seated side by side.
Mad Knight Issac stood in the middle of the temple with the God Rank Knights and the Saint staring down at him.
He just been assigned as the head of the Intelligence Department, but the work lately was already wearing him out.
“Isaac, what did you find?” the Saint asked helplessly.
The Saint had made many mistakes during his term, and the God Rank Knights had become very successful ever since they started to act on their own. It was a huge hit to his status, which was humiliating since he was the Ambassador for the Guardian Wings.
He should be the one ordering the knights around with ultimate authority instead!
“Your Grace, there are no strange things happening according to my information, and the number of preachers we have is growing again!” Knight Issac bowed.
Even with the Saint’s status taking a downturn, he still had to show respect to the man.
“No strange things happening? A fifth of our Faith is gone!” The saint regained a bit of confidence in his voice after he sensed that Knight Issac was nervous.
“Your Grace, is the growth in preachers something strange as well?” God Rank Knight Felix interrupted.
They were all knights, and didn’t know much about preachers.
“It’s normal. Even with most of them killed by Thief God Milton, their souls will return to the Guardian Wings and it will automatically turn them back into new preachers!” the saint explained.
The Guardian Wings operated on pure instinct, so it was not a god. In fact, it was more like a spirit, and the Saint couldn’t communicate with it.
Ben was serving as the Vicar of God, the Guardian Wing was the one who picked him and his soul would return for rebirth once he died.
It might take some time, but it would still work!
Knight Felix nodded and stayed silent.
“Your Grace, our intelligence network is almost established and we now have a professional investigator in more than forty-five hundred cities. I will know immediately as soon as something strange happens!” Knight Issac bowed again.
He was quite irritated. He was already working very hard, and the Saint had still complained!
He showed a bit of dissatisfaction through his tone, but of course, he would not have done this if the Saint’s reputation wasn’t already so bad.
“Then tell me, where did our faith go?” The Saint was furious after he sensed the knight’s displeasure.
“Your Grace, I’m only the head of the Intelligence Department. You should ask the preachers when it comes to faith!” Knight Issac replied stiffly.
“Issac, are you trying to provoke me?!” the Saint stood up and shouted at him.
“Your Grace, don’t be angry. Issac is telling the truth!” Knight Felix waved his hand dismissively. After all, Knight Issac was a holy knight, and he was actually accomplishing something!
Knight Felix turned and said, “Issac, just apologize to His Grace!”
“Your Grace, I am sorry!” Knight Issac quickly bowed.
The Saint ignored the God Rank Knights when they were all minding their own business. But their lack of support for him meant one thing: he truly lost his authority, and Knight Issac might no longer be afraid of him from today on!
He sat back on his chair helplessly and said, “That’s it, just end the meeting here!”
After all, his status was more important than Faith, and truly investigating what was happening would be a huge challenge with the Demon from Beyond.
Not only the Saint, even the Guardian Wings had mistaken Abel’s angel avatar as the Demon from Beyond.
Just like that, two streams of Faith had been created in the Holy Kingdom without anyone noticing!
——
Since the God Rank Knights had gotten used to attacking the front line, they did not stop, and thus the dwarves’ work continued.
After Abel saw what was happening, he sent Thief God Milton back to the Holy Kingdom, especially after he realized how draining that World Stone Heart was. It was basically draining a holy crystal every ten days!
Although he had many holy crystals in storage, they were for his gods to train themselves. The ten thousand holy crystals he had stolen no longer seemed that much at that rate.
His gods were producing a decent amount of Faith on their own now, especially the God of Black Fog with his sixty million tauren followers on the Winter Hoof Plateau and the Mountain God with his ninety million dwarf followers. But still, it was not enough, so Abel turned back to the Holy Kingdom.
Indeed, the World Stone Heart was growing much faster in Doff’s Kingdom so the Wizard Union had not actually been using that many holy crystals.
The Wizard Union had only been using up one holy crystal every ten years. Perhaps the Wizard Union didn’t know the World Stone Heart would grow faster in a god’s Divine Kingdom?
Their president might know, but putting such treasure in a god’s Kingdom would be a huge risk they wouldn’t take.
Even a weakling like the God of Wealth would get greedy about it, so the Wizard Union had instead spent a great deal to replicate a Kingdom using twelve Divine Bodies.
