Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 392 Chaotic Planning
"The 'Emperor of the Sea' is still the 'Emperor of the Sea', and he is still as bold as ever."

"After this battle with the Araniga, the Black Pearl will probably become even more powerful."

"In the short term, there shouldn't be another Suade who dares to challenge them. I'm afraid this will take a long time..."

"From now on, the Cordo Sea will enter an era completely ruled by Captain Isabel..."

The news published in the Cordo Gazette caused heated discussions among all pirates.

Not only that, those noble chambers of commerce that sail on the sea all year round are also very happy.

According to the information released, their revenue from each trip to sea will increase three to five times from the previous profit.

Even if part of the profits are used to build the city-state, the profits are still considerable.

The nobles can also gain other benefits from investing in and building city-states.

Such as the gratitude of the common people in the city-state, a good reputation and higher prestige.

If they handle it well, they can even be promoted to a higher title.

However, they also knew one other thing.

Previously, due to the dangers at sea and the rampant pirates, many powerful families only did business in their own continent. Now with the guarantee of the Black Pearl, at least their pirates will not slaughter passing merchant ships at will.

Therefore, many families speculated that in the near future, there would be many more merchant ships sailing on the sea than before, so they had to prepare early.

Southern Continent, Paskabiru Family.

"In the future, the competition among the chambers of commerce on various continents will become more and more intense. As a pioneer, our Paskabiru family will no longer be limited to the hotel business, but will also develop new products. For example, the thousand-leaf grass that we sold to the 'disaster wizard' Wayne Loft before..."

"There are a lot of those things in the southern continent, but the environment in other continents is harsh, so the demand will be huge!"

Northern Continent, Silvera Family.

"Following the footsteps of Chief Vaklav, from now on, the family will no longer confine itself to the Northern Continent. In addition to the Southern Continent, we can open up new markets in the Eastern and Western Continents. If you have any difficulties, you can seek help from the wizards of the Blood Spirit and Spirit Mystic Schools."

"Coupled with the victory of the Black Pearl, our Silvera family will have more say in the Glory Society this time."

"There must never be another incident like the Wojciech Island. It offends the wizards of the Ghost School and is very detrimental to the future development of the Glory Society."

"Therefore, as one of the three leaders of the Glory Society, we need to set an example and inform Theresa to let her express the attitude of the family and the Glory Society..."

East Continent...

At the same time, all the powerful nobles were planning their own plans, opening up sea routes or dividing the power of the nobles who bet on the Araniga.

In particular, the families of the extraordinary people who went to Wojciech Island felt tremendous pressure almost on the day the news was announced.

"Chinni Boronat, this time you are the representative of the family and the Glory Society and are responsible for supporting Suade's plan."

"Unfortunately, failure is failure. The family needs to hand you over to the Glory Society..."

Qinni had already sensed it, and a hint of bitterness appeared on her beautiful face.

In this world, she has the protection of her family, is a member of the Glory Society, and is also a follower of Lady Red Moon of the Red Moon Church...

Still can't control my own destiny...

……

In the northern seas, near Red Moon Island.

The light of the red moon in the night sky shines down, dyeing the surging waves with a strange red glow.

One after another, the deep-sea species jumped out of the sea, roaring as they were polluted and eroded by the red moon, turning into horrible deformed species, ravaging the waves even more crazily.

From time to time, even more powerful and terrifying deep-sea mutants would be attracted and swallow them whole.

All I saw were countless scarlet eyes looking around strangely in the hazy night.

And above the sky, a group of dozens of wizards dressed in black, blue and red robes, riding a gigantic bone dragon, flew by at an extremely fast speed.

Salvatore Samuel Capo, known as the "first wizard under demigod", sat cross-legged on the skull of a bone dragon, calmly looking at the vast sea below.

Those legends were scattered on the body of the bone dragon, some lying lazily between the ribs, some riding in the gaps between the bone spurs on the back, looking at the vaguely visible Red Moon Island below and talking.

"Hehehe... Legend of Sare, want to go to the Red Moon Island for a visit?" A black-robed wizard with a skull head laughed.

Salvatore did not respond, his eyes still fixed on the Red Moon Island below, as if observing something unusual there.

At this time, the red-robed wizard with a very fierce figure and appearance responded:

"I've heard the name of that island in the Frozen Castle. I really want to know what kind of existence it is that can shield the Red Moon from pollution."

"And just yesterday, a piece of news reached the island of Rinaison, did you know?"

"what?"

The red-robed wizard continued, "I heard that Archbishop Edlas Korda of the Red Moon Church announced that the entire island will be completely open to all adventurers from the mainland and the sea."

"Moreover, the Red Moon Church will provide everything needed for free, without requiring people who land on the island to pay any price."

"Hmm? Why do I feel like I've heard this somewhere before?" A female wizard from the Mystical School said thoughtfully:
"It seems to be from the last era... No, not the last era, I heard something similar earlier."

"Do I need to think about this? Look at the smiles on the faces of the ghost skeletons here, and it will be clear."

"he……"

"Kacha, kacha, it's very familiar indeed. I remember that the great founder of the school, Wizard Lister, once released similar news to various continents in order to attract more people to come to the Northern Continent."

"At that time, quite a few people crossed the sea and went to the Frozen Castle to become wizards for my ghost..."

When the necromancers of the Ghost School recalled this past event, they were all filled with pride, as if they had returned to the school's heyday and saw the great wizard Lister.

"So, the Red Moon Church announced the news in the hope of recruiting more people to become their believers?"

"On the surface, that's the case, but there are many differences between the Northern Continent and Red Moon Island."

"Seconded."

"There's nothing wrong with the news itself. The problem lies in the weirdness of Red Moon Island. We all know about the appearance of Red Moon and its horror..."

Salvatore listened to the discussions behind him, thought for a few seconds and said:
"Okay, this place is not our target for now. Let's rush to Alexei Island before taking the next step."

The legendary wizards from the three major schools looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"Aren't you curious about the legend of Sarai?" asked the rough wizard from the Blood Spirit School.

"curious,"

Salvatore turned around and looked at him, then nodded and said, "I may be curious, but there is a saying in our wizard heritage: 'The unknown is weird.'"

"Since the Second Era, countless predecessors have confirmed the correctness of this statement."

"You mean..." The Blood Spirit Wizard was stunned, "Red Moon Island hides those 'weird' things?"

"Wizard Kelberos, don't you think so?" "Red Moon Island may be magical in the eyes of extraordinary people, but in the eyes of us wizards, it is something that should never appear in the God-Forbidden Era."

"Otherwise, the world would not have become what it is now since the red moon appeared at the end of the Third Era."

"..."

Salvatore stopped paying attention to the wizards' discussion and gently patted the bone dragon under him.

"Roar--"

The bone dragon opened its huge mouth full of sharp fangs, roared silently, and flapped its two pairs of huge bone wings, increasing its speed.

"After crossing Dakman Island, we will soon reach Alexei Island."

"Everyone, get ready..."

……

At the same time, on Red Moon Island.

The high walls and roofs of the buildings in the city-state have been painted a bright red, and the black stone roads are neat, clean and very spacious.

The two main roads that run through the four gates from north to south and from east to west are over a hundred meters wide, with pedestrian and vehicle routes divided separately to allow the corresponding people to travel together.

Every few hundred meters, there is a knight in red and gold armor standing on the roadside like a sculpture, with a red moon logo on his chest, one hand on the giant sword at his waist, staring solemnly at the people passing by.

"Thank you, great Lady Red Moon. Your light will shine forever on the world."

"The dawn has gone, the red moon has come, and as the era changes, we who have lost our way long for your salvation..."

Although it has only been a few days since Red Moon Island was named, many people who have landed on the island have changed their beliefs in the hope of embarking on the path of faith and becoming believers of Ms. Red Moon.

They were wearing gorgeous red robes embroidered with gold patterns, with excited expressions and loud words. They gathered in the square in front of the majestic church in the center of the city.

“I feel redeemed…”

As a red halo appeared on one person in the crowd, the excited shouts moved everyone around them, either envious or jealous...

"Praise the great Lady Red Moon!"

Every time at this time, the huge sculpture in the center of the square - a face without facial features under the red hood, and a black sword leaning under the contours of the body.

As if in response to believers embarking on the path of faith, the statue will cast a bright red light, illuminating the crowd.

The next second, the illness and aging on his body would be dispelled by the light, and he would become young and strong, with his face strangely changed into a handsome one by the light.

Until this time, little stars would twinkle on Ms. Red Moon's body, as if the power was gathering into Her body.

"praise……"

What these people didn't know was that at this moment, at the top of the castle, in the huge palace, Archbishop Edlas Korda, dressed in a red robe, was looking at them with a smile on his face.

However, his smile was no longer the charitable, loving, pious and sincere one he showed to the believers in the past. Instead, it was evil and looked like a mutant.

"Praise, praise as much as you can!"

"The more you praise, the more you will become part of the chaos. You will not be saved until the source of greatness descends upon this world..."

"Jie Jie..."

Christian!

"Ok?"

Archbishop Edlas' smile faded, he raised his head slightly to look at the empty night sky above his head, and asked coldly:

"Mister Miriam, what can I do for you?"

"It looks like you did a good job."

Miriam was still sitting in the huge and deep golden palace. Her voice passed through layers of space and reached the castle on Red Moon Island, echoing clearly in the ears of Archbishop Edlas.

"So, are you going to reward me?" 'Edras' licked his lips.

"Reward? No, you misunderstood, Christian. I just came to remind you that the wizards are not far from Red Moon Island. Be careful."

"Ho ho!"

Christian sneered, "No need to remind me, I already know the goals of those bastards from Ghost."

"They, like us Chaos, have their sights set on the Twilight Sect and McAllister's 'real' kingdom."

"I have planned to set out to kill Salvatore after I have arranged the affairs of Red Moon Island. You know, the title of 'the first legend under the demigod' is only because it is inconvenient for the devout members of our sect like me to show up."

"I know you will do this," Miriam said with a serious tone, not surprised by his plan. "But Audrina and I do not recommend you to do this."

"Oh? What's the reason for your suggestion?"

"Vaclav!"

Audrina, who was sitting on the golden throne nearby, could not help but remind him, “The fact that the demigod wizard made a move again after hundreds of years is not as simple as it seems.”

"Although from the current situation, their target is the Twilight Cult, but Miriam and I are worried that he may have discovered the location of 'Chaos' and is plotting against us..."

"So you're scared?" Christian asked sarcastically.

"..."

Miriam and Audrina looked at each other and saw some helplessness in each other's eyes.

Although the three of them are all "chaotic" people hiding in the world and working hard for the advent of the great being, it is obvious that no one is willing to accept the leadership of the other.

Especially Christian, who has always advocated forcing the world to be destroyed and sacrificed to the great existence outside the "World Clothes"...

"Forget it, take care of yourself."

Seeing the two people fall silent, Christian continued to sneer, as if he was looking at two idiots.

After a long time, he withdrew his gaze, looked at the square below, and murmured:
"Just wait, the 'Source of Chaos' will surely descend upon the world, and I..."

"You will also become a great existence like the 'Source Soul', no longer worrying about the change of eras, and your power will be eternal!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Archbishop "Edras Korda" raised his finger and pointed to the people below who were blessed by Lady Red Moon.

"The original quality is too low, I'd better add some to you..."

"A miracle! Hahahahahaha..."

Crazy laughter echoed in the church. At the same time, the believers below who thought they had embarked on the Road of the Red Moon became even stronger, emitting power like the red moon.

——Weird, desperate, and dead silent.

Behind "Edelus Korda", the clergy, led by the Saint of the Red Moon Church, Mirjam Roman, were like unconscious corpses...
