Chapter 3694: The Answer
Editor: Nyoi-Bo StudioThe subordinate reported, "Also, according to the intelligence, the fleet of the false god believers seemed to be heading toward the Tide of Eternal Night Sea God Island."
Hm?
Xavier’s heart suddenly jumped.
Why were they coming for them?
Originally, he had come to the main island with a gloating mindset, but midway through the meeting, the situation had taken a sharp turn. He immediately became anxious and said, "Everyone, to avoid further losses, please arrange the joint force deployment as soon as possible. I need to return immediately to report this to the Island Lord."
Qu Jiuge also stood up and said, "In that case, I will also return to the main island. Farewell."
Lyanna said, "God servant Xavier, why not let me accompany you?"
"Hm?"
Lyanna spoke sincerely, "I would like to inspect the damage to the divine statue. If our joint forces can defeat the false god believers, that would, of course, be best. But if something goes wrong, then perhaps repairing the divine statue and summoning the Sea God would be our last hope."
Xavier frowned slightly and examined Lyanna from head to toe, thinking whether he had been overly suspicious.
Was Lyanna truly only trying to help them repair the divine statue to deal with the false gods?
After thinking for a moment, he nodded. "I cannot decide this alone. Come with us back to the island, and let the Island Lord decide."
"Alright."
...
At the same time, over a certain stretch of sea.
Cao Ge stood on the deck, looking at the Sea God Island ahead, engulfed in raging flames, feeling the surging power within his body, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
This was the terrifying enhancement of vampire bloodline power.
Enemies he once had to look up to could not even withstand a single punch now.
Meng Qingyu and Guo Ran had also received Fang Heng’s bestowed blood power, unlocking Duke-level vampire abilities, and their strength had surged dramatically.
The three of them now completely overpowered all forces except the three main Sea God Islands.
In addition, Fang Heng had left over ten ships full of Lickers.
All island battles were crushing victories.
"Captain, they escaped from the eastern harbor. Should we pursue?"
"No need," Cao Ge shook his head. "The Emperor needs us to intimidate the Sea God Islands. Since they escaped, it just allows them to spread the news."
"Understood."
"Also, have the crew thoroughly search the island. The Emperor said we can leave everything else, but the divine statue must not be missed."
"Yes!"
At that moment, a player came online.
All crew members were players, keeping one person offline at all times to maintain communication with Fang Heng.
"Captain, message from the Emperor," the player said. "The Emperor ordered us to immediately advance toward the Tide of Eternal Night main island and eliminate all islands under its control along the way."
"Reply to the Emperor. Tell him we understand and will complete the mission at all costs."
...
Sea domain of the Tide of Eternal Night.
Sea God Island main island.
When Fang Heng and the others arrived at the port area with Xavier, it was already the next morning.
Xavier hurried off to report to the Island Lord.
He was extremely anxious.
Along the way, they continuously received reports that the Sea God Islands were being destroyed one after another by the false gods’ attacks.
And all of them were territories under the Tide of Eternal Night.
It was clearly directed at them.
The Island Lord was also unable to remain calm, receiving constant reports throughout the night. He soon realized the situation was far more difficult than expected and immediately began forming a joint fleet of the three main islands to deal with the false gods.
"Xavier, you will represent the Tide of Eternal Night in this operation."
"Yes! Thank you for your trust, Island Lord!"
Xavier took a deep breath and continued, "There is also one more matter. A god servant from the Berserk Sea has proposed attempting to repair the god-level divine statue. She wants to use its power to deal with the false god believers."
"Oh?" the Island Lord frowned. "What do you think?"
Xavier thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "She has fought the false god’s Star Map directly. She believes the enemy is extremely powerful and that even the joint fleet may not be able to defeat them. Only the repaired god-level divine statue may offer a chance. I believe, given the urgency, we can let her try."
"She probably does not realize how badly damaged the divine statue is. In this condition, it cannot possibly be repaired."
The Island Lord shook his head, then added, "However, since this is a time of cooperation among the three main islands, and since she has already arrived, bring her to take a look. Keep her under watch. The divine statue must not be lost."
"Yes!"
...
After receiving approval from the Island Lord, Xavier quickly met up with Lyanna’s group outside the palace.
Lyanna asked, "What did the Island Lord say?"
"The Island Lord also hopes the divine statue can be repaired, but it is not that simple," Xavier replied. "Why don’t I take you to see its condition now?"
"That would be best."
"Please follow me."
Xavier led Lyanna and her group toward the Sea God Island sacrificial grounds.
They quickly passed through the ritual area and entered a cave in the back mountain leading downward.
At the end of the cave, a massive rock wall blocked the path.
Two guards stepped forward and stopped Fang Heng, who had been following them.
"Below is a restricted area of Sea God Island. Unrelated personnel must wait outside."
Lyanna said, "This is my assistant. His knowledge of divine statues is no less than mine. His help is also needed for the repair."
"I see."
Xavier nodded slightly toward Fang Heng, then signaled the guards to step back. He placed his hand on the rock wall.
The seal was activated.
The entrance shifted to the right, revealing a staircase leading downward.
A visible cold aura leaked out from below.
Several accompanying priests shivered.
"As you can see, the underground cave is extremely cold. Please be prepared."
Xavier led the way down.
After descending a winding staircase of about three to four stories, the passage suddenly opened into a large cavern.
The entire cave was covered in thick frost.
Fang Heng’s right eye, the God’s Eye, rotated as his gaze passed through the ice, landing on the frozen spring at the center.
The frost spreading through the cave was emanating from the ice spring.
A massive divine statue lay mostly submerged beneath the icy water, with only about one-fifth exposed above the surface.
Xavier walked toward the ice spring with the group and explained, "As you can see, the damaged divine statue is located within the ice spring."
