This Abyss Fragment has a diameter of approximately one thousand yards, with its center right in the middle of Ash Lake.
It is speculated that the Ancient Dragon King might have been eroded by the Abyss a long time ago, identified as a great demon capable of sustaining the existence of an Abyss Space.
On the way to the center, Rod for the first time closely encountered the seven special-level combatants and their battle groups.
Among them, Olivia's battle group was the most radiant and magnificent.
Her guards were all elite knights of the Knight Order, with the Guard Captain being Rod's former instructor, Soron.
This infatuated man had pursued Olivia for ten years, but unfortunately, he had not touched her heart, nor had he even entered Olivia's sight much.
He became the Guard Captain only because he had trained Rod, thus receiving special promotion from Olivia.
Currently, Soron was still lingering within the interval of first-level combatants, his combat power already surpassed by Rod, but his skill in wielding a forty-yard great sword was still praiseworthy.
At that moment, he was riding on a white Spiritual Horse, his gaze fixed solely on Olivia, not even glancing at Rod.
Other knights were also riding white Spirit Horses, donned in moon-white armor, with large Moon Stones embedded in their chests, the white moonlight forming a continuous sheet, looking as if the moon had descended upon the earth.
Creating a moonlight environment for Olivia was the mission of this guard.
Olivia's abilities were enhanced by the moon, and during moonless periods, the Moon Guard could gain moon power through prayer and ritual, reflecting the moon's brilliance.
Therefore, their individual strength was not strongly, mostly between second-level or third-level combatants, but their devotion to the moon and proficiency in Moon Prayer could provide Olivia with enhancements far exceeding their strength.
This was the meaning of their existence.
Indeed, the two "strong primary candidates" for the Slayer King war were Olivia and Alan.
When the battle begins, they would lead the charge, facing the formidable Ancient Dragon King head-on.
Relative to Olivia's splendor, the other "strong primary candidate" appeared much more ordinary.
Alan's battle group consisted only of several dozen knights dressed in blue armor, lacking radiance or ribbons, merely riding on white Spirit Horses walking silently.
Even Alan's armor did not look significantly different from theirs.
The only distinction was Alan riding on a red Spiritual Horse.
In the entire Trolian, only Alan's Spirit Horse was red.
Luo Wei told Rod that Spirit Horses were pure white creatures of the Spirit Realm, since domesticated by humans, none were red, and it was fed with his wife's blood.
Rod remarked in shock: "His wife's blood?"
Luo Wei said somberly: "Alan's wife was named Greta, she possessed an extremely rare characteristic - Pure White Pearl, which could condense a tiny spiritual energy crystal to evolve her body, like a pearl in a shell, so she quickly completed spiritualization, making her body and soul incredibly powerful, the original Ashen Throne was prepared for her, but sadly, she fell on the battlefield at Wind City."
"It was a tragic battle, the Doomsday believers opened the gates of Wind City, shut off the Spiritual Power Generator, countless Thirst Blood Demons poured into the city, at least half the people were infected or killed, fortunately, she held the Guardian Fire Sacrificial Ground until support from the Royal City arrived."
"But at that moment, exhausted, she was assassinated by a Doomsday believer lurking in the support team, he used a dagger polluted with Black Water to pierce her heart, severing her soul."
"A brilliant human genius thus perished."
"Before Greta died, she spiritualized and separated her unpolluted body as rare material, forging Alan's Radiant Great Shield and Indestructible Rainbow Sword, feeding her blood to Alan's Spirit Horse, granting it strong resistance and endurance, extracting and crystallizing her soul to forge Alan's Holy White Great Sword."
"These are Alan's four Soul Weapons, to him, unparalleled by any Divine Artifact."
"Since Greta's death, Alan never married, nor approached any woman, for twelve years, he spent his time in battle."
The Royal City was quite worried, but couldn't alter his will, and indeed, there was a huge gap in combat power…
Luo Wei didn't continue, but Rod already understood that when the Royal City faced any crisis and couldn't immediately dispatch support, his name was always the first to come to mind.
"However."
Luo Wei paused, then, in disbelief, said: "He hasn't been exhausted by excessive combat, instead, in recent years, his strength has increased even faster, simply incomprehensible."
He glanced at Rod.
"Just like you."
Rod gave a dry laugh; if it weren't for the huge difference between Alan's Fire Spark and his "Fire Spark", he would suspect whether Alan also had a Dream Realm.
"What about his battle group?" Rod asked curiously.
"Alan excels in personal combat, he doesn't need coordination and support, in any team, he is always the sole core, hence, his battle group consists entirely of individuals with extremely strong personal combat capabilities."
Rod glanced at his Guard Captain Kaiso, from his robust physique, he seemed to be such a person.
