Chapter 192 The prelude to the war begins
"What the Dragon Race can do, I don't think we can't do."
Veronica finally managed to boost everyone's morale, but she also knew in her heart that, given the current situation, the status of the Dragon Race and the Elf Race was unshakable.
It was fine to call them the two pillars of the Church of Dawn; of course, they didn't include the Angel Race in their calculations.
In their hearts, the Angel Race had basically detached itself from the Hundred Races Alliance system by now; they were the direct descendants of the Church of Dawn, plain and simple.
Regarding this, Veronica and the others could only sigh, the Angel Race had completed the grandest gamble in history, but fortunately, they had gambled correctly.
The status of the Angel Race now was equivalent to that of a meritorious official who had followed the dragon and achieved success; even if they just lay on their laurels and did nothing, the Church of Dawn would always remember them.
But the Angel Race clearly wouldn't do that.
So...
Frankly speaking, the status of the Angel Race was unshakeable.
For Veronica and the others, they only needed to contribute actively to ensure that their race wouldn't be stepped on by newcomers in the future world order ruled by the Church of Dawn.
Standing side by side was the most they could accept.
And this all required finding ways to solve problems for the Church of Dawn.
After much thought, the Dwarf King's eyes lit up.
"The Demon Annihilation War is about to begin, and the Hundred Races Alliance has basically come under the control of the Church of Dawn, but there are still two forces left..."
"The Behemoth Race and the Human Kingdom Alliance?"
The Lord of Titans narrowed his eyes slightly.
"These two forces are indeed good places for us to earn merit, but I heard that the Behemoth Race is to be handled by Judge Leya, as they possess the Resonance Codex. Due to the existence of the Seven Holy Relics, His Holiness the Pope will definitely require a more cautious handling method."
"I understand, but aren't there still many forces in the Human Kingdom Alliance? A single Human Kingdom Alliance, with hundreds of large and small kingdoms..."
The Dwarf King hinted at something meaningful.
Everyone already understood his meaning, but...
There were many, many things to consider, the most immediate of which was whether rashly attacking the Human Kingdom Alliance would be seen by the Church of Dawn as being too eager for success, and somewhat disobedient...
But from this piece of fat, they indeed saw the hope of soaring to success.
The Church of Dawn was integrating all forces to attack the Demon Race, while the Human Kingdom Alliance was still wavering, clinging to the interests of the nobility and disregarding the interests of the Hundred Races.
From any angle, they seemed to have a reason to act, but...
Whether this action was in Ian's interest was what they needed to consider.
Seeing that everyone still wasn't making a move, the Dwarf King cleared his throat and lowered his voice.
"Grand Lord Ender Dragon just went to the Dragon Race a few days ago to inherit the position of Dragon Emperor. Later, that soaring deity, do you still remember?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and the Dwarf King said softly:
"I heard that was the God of the Sky, also a true Dragon God."
"In addition... I heard that the entire Dragon Race's migration is already underway, and they will return in two or three days, and will be stationed in the Great Rift Valley in the east of the Starting Place from now on."
Without the Dwarf King needing to remind them further, from these few seemingly disjointed sentences, everyone already understood his meaning.
The Dragon Race was still constantly developing, constantly gaining more glory, and constantly widening the gap between them and the other races.
If they didn't change their current pace of development, perhaps in the future, there would be a race of Gods above the great races.
They didn't need to think much to understand that the gap between the Dragon Race and the Elf Race and themselves in the future might be like the chasm that divided the eastern and western sides of the Roderick Continent.
At this moment, Veronica and the others understood that they must find a way to push forward and complete the task of the Human Kingdom Alliance.
...
Each of the Hundred Races had its own pace of development, relying on the Dawn, constantly expanding their extraordinary systems, and enhancing their own foundations and strength.
And in the various regions west of the Roderick Continent, under the intervention of the Church of Dawn, the grand construction plans were also constantly being perfected.
Ian wasn't idle either; with the great war approaching, he was frantically accumulating combat resources, with all factories operating at full capacity, building non-stop.
After Layal and the others returned, he ordered them all to enter the MC world to quickly improve their strength.
Ian himself took Rayquaza to search for other Super Ancient Pokémon.
Putting aside the others, Groudon and Kyogre were actually found first under Rayquaza's precise positioning.
This time, Ian didn't act personally; their old rival Rayquaza had already been subdued, and Ian could just start a proper Pokémon command battle.
Thus, after being violently beaten by Rayquaza, Groudon and Kyogre also officially put on the Holy Relic Law Crown.
The Church of Dawn was developing in a completely positive direction, and the living space left for the Human Kingdom Alliance and the Behemoth Race was repeatedly suppressed.
Coupled with the actions of great races like the Dwarves...
The Hundred Races Alliance quickly donned the robes of the Church of Dawn's followers within a short period of about half a month.
And the clouds of war also began to expand rapidly.
...
The Chasm Frontline.
The troops stationed here had been completely replaced by the Silver Armored Pillars of the Church of Dawn, with fifty thousand Dawn Knights and ten thousand Purifiers stationed at the core outpost.
And personally guarded by the two newly appointed Elf Archmages.
This chasm, stretching as far as the eye could see, was like a break in the world, clearly dividing the Roderick Continent into black and white.
To the west, the sky was clear and the land was bright, with beautiful scenery.
To the east, mist enveloped everything, and roars were frequently heard.
This situation had lasted for a very long time, until the rise of the Church of Dawn, when the chasm's division of the world situation finally began to slightly waver.
"After a while, we can cross the chasm and reclaim the lost land..."
Senderro, the Elf Druid Sage holding a Master-level Nature Staff, gazed at the mist on the other side of the distant chasm.
The other Archmage nodded slightly, and just as he was about to say something, an elf rushed over in a hurry.
"Officer! A deep abyss has appeared in the chasm opposite the South Third Outpost, and a large number of demons are preparing to cross the chasm, numbering about fifty thousand troops."
The two were not surprised, but simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief as if a burden had been lifted.
"Finally..."
Senderro clenched his staff and walked out.
"I will go take charge, you guard here, and send a message to His Holiness the Pope, the Demon Race has begun their attack."
...
The Starting Place.
The Pope's residence, where meetings had not been held for a long time, was accompanied by the sound of a long, ancient, and heavy bell.
The entire city was shaken almost instantly.
The Dawn Knights were fully prepared, and strategic materials were being mobilized on a large scale.
The wolf pack and the church's security team also began to impose a curfew on the city; everything seemed to be paving the way for war.
The believers understood that peaceful life would eventually be broken, and this time, it would be the true decisive battle launched by the Hundred Races more than two hundred years after the arrival of the Demon Race.
This battle would decide who the future of the Roderick Continent belonged to.
But the believers were not afraid; under the illumination of the Dawn, they no longer had the despair they felt when facing the Demon Race in the past.
Thus, accompanied by shouts of "Dawn Forever", great races such as the Dragon Race, Elf Race, and Dwarf Race poured into the Pope's residence one after another.
Finally, as several divine authorities who were famous in the Church of Dawn returned from various places, the prelude to the war officially began.
