Chapter 213 Holy White City
One month after the Blackwater Territory incident, the core of humanity, the Holy White City.

The layout of the Holy White City was almost copied from the previous imperial capital, whether it was the structure, the city defense, or even the surrounding terrain.After all, those sages are nostalgic people, so it is only natural to make them like this.The most fundamental difference between the Holy White City and the original imperial capital is that this city is almost impossible to be breached.

Even if Kaos came in person, they still had a certain degree of blocking me from the white wall.This high wall made entirely of white stone is densely covered with mysterious runes, enough to make any evil that watches over the city feel hopeless.

But this kind of thing is just talking in the market.From top to bottom, no one believes that this city can survive alone after the destruction of the world, it is just to give the current people a shot in the arm.There is already too much hopelessness in the world right now.They need a glory to keep their faith alive.Even if that glory is false and man-made, these people who have been gripped by death will still believe in it.

Therefore, the residents living in the Holy White City always have an inexplicable pride.They believed that their lives would never be ended by accident, so they claimed to be the people of Bai, and started religious worship in this city openly.What they worship is nothing but the white wall built by the Council of Hundreds, believing that this wall has the magic power to protect them from the world.

But they are also very clear that it is not the white wall that really protects them, but the group of people who built the white wall.It is those high-ranking Council of Hundreds guarding this world, preventing them from being corrupted into crazy monsters by the magic power of chaos.

"But the signs of the agreement have resurfaced, and we can no longer ignore them."

Sitting in the holy white hall, the man knocked on the table and whispered to the people around him.

This hall, which used to be the royal palace, has been transformed into a round table conference with a hundred chairs by the sages of the former Imperial Mages.A full hundred chairs of different shapes, representing the direction of the abilities of the sages, gathered beside a round table.

Those chairs were not filled with all the people, and some chairs were not filled with people.Rather than saying that this is the hall of the sacred Council of Hundreds, it is better to say that this is a concentration camp for weird creatures.Most of them are guys who can scare children when they go out. To say that they are sages is undoubtedly a kind of blasphemy for those people who have long been brainwashed by the glorious images of sages.

So as a start, the man with the white aura shining behind his head coughed and knocked on the table, speaking to the people around him.

"The sign has appeared, and I believe you already know it. This is the first sign that has confirmed the prophecy in 4 years. I believe everyone here knows what it means. The Lich Lord guarding the Cyanwood Territory is very decisive. I chose the world restart device, and now that place has turned into a cloud of smoke and dust, and we have been temporarily safe."

"But our safety is based on the decisiveness of that Lich Lord. If he hesitates for a while, I believe that his escape is almost a foregone conclusion. I believe everyone here can believe that, so What does the consequence mean. It is not something that our Council of Hundreds can easily handle, because his power is too terrifying. Even calling us from the other time axis of the parallel space is a desperate war."

"The last time we sealed him was because he couldn't observe himself. When we suppressed his right hand for the first time, we sacrificed three provinces. The unified human empire that had just improved at that time fell apart. The second suppression When his liver died, the flowing curse and poisonous gas even directly turned a quarter of the world back into chaos. And now we are lucky, the Lich Lord restarted the whole world when the symptoms began. But what about next? If something like this happens again, do we still have to suffer passively? It's time for us to take some precautionary measures."

"But the key is how do we guard against it?"

As soon as the sage with the light in the back of his head finished speaking, the sage who couldn't see his face spoke in a high-pitched voice, wearing a white robe beside him but covering his face with a hood.It sounded like a drake with its throat stuck, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

"Many of us here didn't participate in that battle. Those who participated were all as scared as anyone else, and never mentioned the power of that man. How can we guard against this kind of situation where the information is not equal? ​​Could it be said that Are we wary of a threat that doesn't exist, that's only in concept? It's funny, but I can't laugh at all, okay?"

"Things, in fact, just, let you, mention, beware of threats!"

On the other side of the male duck's voice, a sage who looked no different from a storm stammered, and it took a lot of effort to correct his frantic body, which sounded like a pause, which was similar to those who didn't know said the sages.

"Then, that person doesn't exist at all. In this world, he can be treated as if he doesn't exist. It's just meaningless behavior for you to guard against him. You can only treat him as a threat, or a phantom. Unless he Come out, the realm between the virtual and the real, otherwise, we have no way to guard against him, or even see him."

After the violent wind finished speaking, it spun around on its own twisted chair, completely ignoring the increasingly strange gazes of other sages.After all, for those who have not really faced those things, saying anything is meaningless.They will not believe what they have not seen. This is the strength of the sages, and it is also the disadvantage of the sages.It is easy for them to regard their own strength as the limit of this world, thereby underestimating other directions and leading to complete failure.

There was a big mistake when they went to kill Kaos back then. If it weren't for the cleverness of the Ice Sage, the entire sealing activity would be a laughing stock.But even if they succeeded, the things they sacrificed were countless and completely incalculable.

"Okay, I think I probably understand." A dwarf with a pipe in his mouth knocked on his pipe and said sullenly.

"You mean that the enemy we are facing is totally unreasonable. He can't even be described by rules, and his specific form can't be described by language. Even the most basic precautions can't warn him of his appearance, right? ?”

"Just like those ancient gods and old rulers running around in the chaos, if it weren't for the rustling sound like electric current, there would be almost no way to detect their appearance. And even Attacking them is also completely useless, unless there is a corresponding force, or crushing with complete momentum. Is that right."

Facing the explanation of the dwarf sage, the storm nodded his head, and rolled up a cloud of dust around him.

"But in this case, we would be too passive."

The man at the beginning had an ugly expression on his face.After all, if you know that an invisible bomb may appear in front of you anytime and anywhere, and then you can only be bombed and cannot dismantle the bomb, no one will look so pretty.

"If no one can observe him, shouldn't it be judged from the signs? The soul network and the world context have not yet officially operated, and basically there is no way to capture the optical image of the sky. If it weren't for the Lich Killer If we are decisive, we are probably drinking tea in chaos now. Is there really no way to use it?"

"No."

The storm was still shaking his body in a wheezing manner.No one knew whether he was nodding or shaking his head.

"I've said it a long time ago, except for the ice sage Rosalind, no one knows even a little bit of his methods. And even if Miss Rosalind has some information in hand, she can't successfully talk to that adult Ability."

"After all, if we had such detailed information, we wouldn't have prepared for such a long time. And we were killed in a mess at the beginning. No one's information is reliable, he is like this world , is changing all the time, evolving all the time. He is the new, absolute god of this world."

"That doesn't sound like good news..."

The dwarf-like sage exhaled a mouthful of smoke rings, knocked on the pipe in his hand, and commented indifferently.

The atmosphere in the Holy White Hall fell into a stalemate for a while.After all, everyone present can be said to be the top figures in the world.If even they don't have any good solutions, then it is estimated that Kaos is indeed invincible.

Although he was recognized as invincible.

"But we might be able to find another person to ask."

After being silent for a long time, the group of storms spit out a name that everyone felt familiar with.

"Sky Sage Olisis, he may know Kaos' ability. Maybe we can find some clues from him."
