Trot, trot, trot .

The sounds of organized hooves came from the training field in the north of Ferde . The Sunlight Warriors were gathering .

There were many soldiers here—more than 150,000 . Looking down from the tall stand on the side of field, one would see a sea of people . It was practically boundless . With all the people and horses, it was extremely noisy as well . Looking closely, one would see that the soldiers all shone as if they were covered in a layer of sunlight .

An indescribable vitality radiated from each of them . It spread in all directions and, from the distance, it seemed that this land was loved by the sun . It was very warm and abnormally bright .

To the outside world, these soldiers were gathering to help reinforce the Orida Fortress in the north .

In the near distance, Link and his Magicians were watching this . General Jacker was also in the stands . He was now a Sunlight Warrior at the pinnacle of Level-9, one step away from the Legendary Level . He was still the most powerful Warrior in the territory .

However, there were many new stars behind him . For example, Warrior Th.o.r.eau had risen two levels in a row . He was now Level-8 already . There were more than 700 soldiers in Level-8 . There were also many in Level-9—more than 90 . They were all chasing close to Jacker .

Though these newbies wouldn't replace him as general even if their power surpa.s.sed him, Jacker still felt pressured . He practiced like crazy whenever he had time, not daring to relax for even a bit .

"Lord, with our speed, we should finish preparing tomorrow and can depart the next day," Jacker reported the specific developments .

Link nodded . "This trip north is to deal with the Army of Destruction if they come southward and also to build a st.u.r.dy foundation there . We will also establish defensive sentries along the way to reinforce our actions whenever needed . Go back and keep observing . Choose enough elites for this mission . "

"Understood, Lord . " Jacker nodded .

After that, Link gave some more detailed instructions that Jacker recorded . Then he left to get to work .

After Jacker left, Eliard said, "Link, let me go with you this time . I feel that it only takes a bit more for a breakthrough, but I still lack something . I think I need the opportunity . "

Link glanced at Evelina who said, "Lord, don't look at me . I don't care…as long as this guy doesn't die in the north . "

Eliard huffed . "How would I die there? You're cursing me!"

"Alright, alright, just come with me," Link agreed quickly .

Beside him, Celine had some thoughts, but Link sensed them and spoke before she could .

"Celine, you're at Level-9, but you're still far from a breakthrough . All the enemies we'll meet in the North will most likely be in the Legendary level . Stay in Ferde and train patiently . "

"Fine," Celine had to answer .

Beside her, Merna giggled at this . "Sister, the north isn't fun at all . It's filled with Father's underlings, and it's too dangerous . Ferde is more fun . "

This girl was a demon, but she wasn't very demonic . Her personality was only a bit more mature than a regular little girl's . After staying in Ferde with Celine for these days, she was mesmerized by the colorful world . It would be hard to kick her away now .

Celine chuckled wryly . She knew that Merna couldn't understand her worries now, so she didn't say anything . She just smiled and patted her sister's head .

On the other hand, Link was discussing with Evelina, Vance, Alloa, and Eleanor about the arrangements after he left .

The Mage Tower was getting bigger and bigger with more sub-towers nearby . There was also the Gold Rune Workshop, and alchemy shops were getting built . There were many tasks, even with Lily's help . Link discussed with them for more than an hour before settling everything .

Finally, it was decided that the three who would go to the Orida Fortress were Link, Eliard, and Milose . Elovan had wanted to go, but he was, unfortunately, a flesh magic puppet now . He couldn't travel quickly and would hold them back, so he decided not to go .

Of the three, Eliard was almost at the Legendary Level, Link had successfully reached Level-12, and Milose was in the middle of Level-10 . Because they had the support of a rich territory, the three were covered in the best magic equipment, all types of potions, and runes .

This way, even if they ran into forces much stronger than them, they could still put up a fight . The trio was now the top force in Firuman .

The Sunlight Army would depart the day after tomorrow . Link' group obviously couldn't wait for that . After settling everything, Link took Eliard and Milose and used a transmission spell .

After the flash of light, the three appeared in the sky miles away . The increase in distance was a benefit to Link's leveling up . After that, Link used the Void Walk and sped northward .

After a while, Eliard felt a change . He watched as cl.u.s.ters of runes flashed by like flowers and exclaimed, "Link, I feel that you're using a new magic technique . It's different from before, and it's 50% faster!"

Milose didn't say anything, but his eyes were filled with shock . Link's speed was honestly too fast . He was at least twice as fast as before . With this extreme speed, Milose couldn't even feel any wind . His surroundings were calm as if they were in a nonexistent illusion and were flying through the air .

Even more shocking was that Link wasn't alone . He was flying with two others . This spell was too incredible .

Link chuckled . He didn't keep it a secret . "Indeed, I changed it, but the general theory didn't change . I'm still using the force from spatial distortions to move forward . I just greatly increased the curvature of the spatial distortions and added some auxiliary forces . For example, all the currents are behind us now . Look behind . The air is distorted, right?"

Eliard and Milose turned to look and found it was so . The air before and beside them was calm, but the air behind them was shaken . Everything they could see was twisted .

Technically, such intense spatial ripples would create horrible noises . However, they were going so fast that the speed of sound couldn't catch up . Thus, they couldn't hear anything at all .

Eliard studied carefully for five or six minutes . Then he shook his head . "Oh, your methods are getting better and better…This requires very strong magic control . I'm too far from this . "

Hearing this, Milose smiled wryly . It wasn't just far—it was impossible .

Eliard wasn't at the Legendary level yet, so he couldn't feel how terrifying Link's tactics were . However, Milose could clearly feel the precision in Link's control . It was inhuman .

Link's power seemed to be his soul . He could use his power according to his whim without any delay . It was magic, but he made it seem like a martial arts attack . This kind of Magician was too terrifying . Even if Milose stood behind him, he didn't have the courage to attack .

Link didn't know what Milose was thinking, of course . After that, he helped the two fly while discussing the Void Walk spell with Eliard . He was fast at comprehending and could understand everything before Milose could . He could even draw his own inferences later on .

Both Link and Eliard displayed inhuman thought operations during this trip . In Milose's opinion, Link was a strange beast . Eliard was too .

It was understandable . In the game, Eliard was a total genius . He was the star of the stars and all players called him the prince of the realm . The fact that Link could be one step ahead of him this entire time was mostly due to his strong soul .

Now, as Eliard grew stronger, his soul was awakening and strengthening too . He could gradually catch up to Link . Many times, Link could feel the pressure coming from Eliard, so he didn't allow himself to relax .

As for Milose, he was just a regular genius . He could reach the Legendary Level thanks to his talent, but also because of the complete training he'd received in the Isle of Dawn since childhood . If he lived in the human world where there weren't many magic academies, he would at most be at Level-6 now .

This was an astronomic difference . No wonder he was so dazed .

Link was honestly too fast . Half an hour later, the Orida Fortress appeared before them . Here, Link had planned on crossing over it and continuing northward .

However, after glancing at the fortress, he changed his mind . Inside the Orida Fortress… No, more specifically, it was in the forest outside the fortress that he felt a strange aura . It was familiar, but he couldn't pinpoint who it was .
