The Path to Lordship Begins in the North

"Brother!"

Lilith lunged at Lind, but Lind ruthlessly pinned her head down and stopped her in place.

But Lilith didn't mind at all, and excitedly said, "You're finally back!"

Lind glanced at her and knew that Lilith assumed he was going to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun in her place because he had returned a little late.

As for why the former queen and the current pope address the governor directly as "Brother Governor," and why others around them don't ask or dare to ask, let's leave that to future unofficial histories to tell.

Lena didn't seem to care much, after all, Lilith and Lind had once been sworn siblings. What Lena was more concerned about was where Lind was going next.

"Is it fixed?"

Linde looked at the brand-new tower. To be honest, it was incredibly high-tech, almost too high-tech, to the point that it seemed like magic.

Lilith nodded and said, "According to 550C, it's at least enough."

Linde looked doubtful: "Really?"

"Go ask them yourself if you don't believe me!"

In critical moments, Lilith is reliable; at least she won't risk her brother's life.

Looking at the pitch-black room, Lena grabbed Lind's hand and asked, "Can I come with you?"

"Too dangerous."

Linde shook his head. Although riding the space elevator with Lena was romantic, and Lena's physical abilities were not like Linde's, requiring special clothing assistance, Linde really didn't dare to take the risk. Not only was it unnecessary, but if something happened to Linde, he would need Lena to stabilize the situation and try sending Lilith up again.

Anastasia, standing to the side, also said, "The Tower of Babel is ready and can be activated at any time."

Just then, Lucanus came to Lind's side and said, "My king, urgent news from the North!"

......

At this moment, in the eternal frozen land, the sky was covered by a huge phantom. There was no one around the holy remains of the demon god, because everyone around, including the demons, had been swallowed up by this holy remains. This holy remains continued to expand until it expanded to the point that the entire pit could no longer contain it.

The pollution deep within the sea of ​​consciousness is being cleansed, but in the real world, the super-level magic that constantly uses the flesh and blood of demons as a medium is also nourishing the power of this holy remains.

If one were to observe this sacred remains of the demon god up close, and were fortunate enough not to go mad from staring directly at the outer god, one would discover that the flesh and blood of this sacred remains were growing, boiling, and even constantly connecting with the phantom in the sky.

If the God of War is visible to most of Anjou, then this phantom in the Eternal Frozen Lands is clearly visible to the entire Northern Cape. No, it's not just the Northern Cape; this phantom has even become a celestial phenomenon, faintly visible even amidst the fiercest battles.

"What is that thing?"

The Sauron dragons stared at the phantom, unaware of what monster their previous decision had unleashed, but a sudden, inexplicable panic gripped their hearts.

This is yet another instance, besides the tower, that has frightened the dragon.

Meanwhile, Antipa, who was commanding the demons on the battlefield, vaguely understood what was going on. Sure enough, this thing was about to descend, the true demon god was about to descend.

Antipas's feelings at this moment were hard to describe; he was filled with fear, excitement, and even a little curiosity.

The fear stemmed from the uncertainty of what this awakened demon god would bring, while the excitement was fueled by a glimmer of hope. Since the black mist wouldn't affect the demons, did this mean the god truly favored the demons? Was it possible that the god's awakening would usher in an era of demons?

Even if this demon god fills this continent with black mist, it's still a huge profit for the demon race.

The appearance of this phantom even caused those who were blessed by the gods to experience mental instability again, but fortunately, because the pollution in their sea of ​​consciousness had been completely cleaned up, and even Alberto and Capet's veterans were still fighting in the depths of their sea of ​​consciousness, these people quickly recovered.

At that moment, Daniel was fighting alongside a group of Avars and other humans when he saw the enormous phantom. Daniel asked, "Do you still have a ship?"

"Ship? What ship?"

The Avar looked at the demon with some confusion and asked, "That direction seems to be where your demon kingdom is located, right? Do you know what that thing is?"

"It's definitely not a good thing!"

Although Daniel tried to keep his voice down, his tone was still very excited.

Daniel had not only overseen the excavation of the Demon God's remains, but had also escaped death multiple times. At this moment, Daniel's escape radar sounded the alarm once again.

The events happening on this continent have become increasingly bizarre. Daniel felt that it was beyond his ability to change anything. Taking advantage of the moment when the other side was stunned by the appearance of the phantom, Daniel did not continue to organize an attack, but instead summoned all his soldiers and old subordinates back.

"I'll ask you one more time, do you Avars still have ships?"

Seeing Daniel's serious expression, the Avar paused for a moment before replying, "Yes, I do, but what do you need a ship for?"

"Run! If you don't run now, it'll be too late!"

Daniel looked at the Avar people in front of him and stamped his feet in frustration.

"Run? Are you kidding me? If you try to escape now, you'll be caught even if you get to the continent of Solon!"

"If everyone dies, who will arrest us! Quick, get ready!"

Because most of the high-ranking generals of the demon race either became offspring of demon gods or died, and Daniel had served as Antipas's advisor for a period of time, Daniel's current status in the allied forces of the demons and Avars is not low. Of course, given the previous losses of the demon army, any demon who has survived from the beginning to the present will not be much lower in status than Daniel.

"To live is to succeed"—this is the lesson Daniel learned after being repeatedly beaten by the North.

So after the phantom appeared, a group of demon soldiers and some Avars began to retreat silently in the chaotic battlefield. Because of Daniel's rich experience in escaping, in the chaotic battlefield, when everyone's attention was drawn to the phantom, no one even noticed that Daniel was leading a group of people away.

Inside the tower, Lind had already changed his clothes with Reina's help.

Looking at the "spacesuit" designed by 550C, Lin De couldn't help but recall the advertising slogan he saw on TV when he was a child in his previous life: "I want to be an astronaut, and my grandparents will be so happy."

As 550C stated at the time, although Linde's body was very healthy, it was far from meeting the standards of an "astronaut," and therefore, a large amount of auxiliary equipment was needed.

Seeing Lind almost wrapped up like a ball, Lena asked worriedly, "Are you sure you're okay?"

"Since the goddess says it's no problem, then it's definitely no problem."

Linde patted Lena's shoulder through the transparent mask to indicate that he was in good condition, and then gently touched the water tank-like mask to Lena's forehead, examining her closely.

If he could, Linde wanted to keep watching, but the phantom outside indicated that time was running out. The situation was even worse than Linde's; for some reason, the demons had actually launched the nuclear missile, and the Outer God was about to truly awaken.

Lena wanted to say something more, but Lind turned around and started walking towards the pitch-black carriage, giving a thumbs-up while his back was to everyone.

"Babel Tower is ready. System connection in progress. Entering launch mode."

A cold, synthesized voice began the final broadcast.
