At this moment, Daniel''s eyes shone brightly. He admitted he had hesitated upon his return. Three months of waiting without a single reply had driven him to despair.
But now...
His psychic powers surged, and with thousands of ability vessels apanying him, Daniel''s apparition appeared on each one. Everyone was astonished to see thunder rolling across the sky!
Daniel, with his aged appearance and flowing white hair, spoke in a deep voice.
"If anyone wishes to leave, you may do so now. This journey is fraught with certain death, and I will not hold you back."
"If you choose to stay, then station yourselves here for now and protect me."
"Once I break through the Pinnacle Apprentice level, I will join you on the journey to the Azure Cloud border to battle the Druids at night!"
"If we seed, our names will remain in Azure Cloud forever, celebrated throughout thend."
"If we fail..."
"Are you willing to follow me to hell?"
"With a thunderous roar!"
As Daniel''s words fell, he rose into the air, with bolts of lightning striking him. All forces in ckwood could see Daniel standing above the clouds, his figure godlike!
Hundreds of thousands knelt on one knee towards Daniel.
They roared, almost dispersing the thunder above Daniel''s head! Their eyes were filled with the will to fight, daring to venture to the blood-soaked battlefields of the Azure Cloud Border town.
Because Daniel was still leading them, and ckwood did not retreat!
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
...
[Your descendant Daniel, leading hundreds of thousands from ckwood to the battlefield, has reached the peak of his Developing Skill after many years. Upon hearing his subordinates, he saw hope in despair. With a sudden realization, he gained confidence that he could break through the severe thunder tribtions!]
[Your descendant Daniel, representing all of ckwood, has earned the faith of all warriors in ckwood, gaining the trait—Azure Cloud Overlord!]
[He fights for Cloudview County, blessed by the fortunes of heaven and earth in Cloudview County, cultivating psychic powers 30% faster. Within Cloudview County, all his attributes increase by 100%, hisbat power by 30%. Leading the people of Cloudview County, their morale boosts by 50%, and theirbat power by an additional 5%!]
Daniel has always been a hidden genius of ckwood, even breaking through the Competent Force earlier than George!
From a pure heart to a Heroic Tyrant, and then to a cunning strategist, at this moment of despair, he became the true overlord of Cloudview County!
...
On the great road north from Azure Cloud city.
On the path forward for the major forces of Cloudview County, many elders of the Competent Force who oncemanded respect stopped in their tracks.
Many psychics from Cloudview County also hesitated, seemingly making a difficult decision. This ce might have more than a million psychics, yet it was eerily silent, only whispers could be heard.
"Have you heard? Elder Nathan of ckwood has returned to the Azure Cloud border."
"He''s brought hundreds of elders from Glory City, stationed on the city walls. To this day, the million Druids gathered outside the Border town dare not step into Cloudview County."
"They''re crazy! We have no support, isn''t this seeking death?"
"Stop... don''t say that, those are people from Glory City!"
Suddenly, everyone looked towards the front of a group, led by people from ckwood, followed by civilians from Glory City!
Among those from ckwood, only George and many deceived members of the celestial generation, along with Jeffrey''s lineage, were present.
"I''ve been deceived all my life."
George muttered in a low voice, "They told me we were poor, made me rob graves for so many years. Now they tell me to retreat to the north, everyone else is running back, and I''m the only one left in the dark, still leading the people of Glory City north, everyone''s making a fool of me."
"George!"
Dennis descended from the sky, blocking George''s path, his brow furrowed, "Are you really going back?"
George shrugged and chuckled, "Aren''t we supposed to go back? Don''t say anything else. I''ve heard from the family that you''ve done a lot for ckwood over the years. I don''t really have anything to thank you for, so here, I''ll give you an old predecessor. I''m definitely going back home. If you can beat me, then fight; if not..."
George didn''t say more. He released the remnant soul of an elder, who nced at Dennis, rolled his eyes, and then returned to George''s body.
The psychics of Glory City remained silent!
They followed George closely, found ckwood''s psychic ships, and jumped aboard without hesitation.
The psychic ships took off, and their departure was marked by silence, a calm demeanor.
But everyone from the major forces present could feel the resoluteness of the people from ckwood!
George was different from the others; he didn''t ask for help or say much. Although he might be naive, he was sure that every preparation made by his family was better than his own. All he needed to do at such a time was to take those who wanted to go back, back home!
The silence of Glory City was like thunder, striking the hearts of all the psychics in Cloudview County.
Everyone was speechless, the air seemed oppressive.
Until a momentter, everyone from Duke''s Mansion''s side cleared a path!
Duke Keh slowly walked out, silent, carrying a coffin on his back, apanied by several elders of Duke''s Mansion aboard the psychic ship.
They saw it.
The coffin bore simple inscriptions, Duke Keh was prepared to bid farewell to the world after the battle!
[We once strived to prevent disaster from befalling our homnd, but we failed.]
[I am still proud.]
[Proud to have been born in this era, to die for the future of Azure Cloud, even in the darkest of futures, we still have hope.]
[I am proud to have fought alongside ckwood, standing behind the times!]
It was a day of silence.
The psychics evacuating from Cloudview County seemed to see Nathan still standing on the city walls of Border town, facing countless night raiders without stepping back!
Some were still fighting alone for a hopeless homnd.
Dennis''s body trembled as he watched the psychic ships of ckwood and Duke''s Mansion depart, his eyes red.
"Belonging to Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion, we—"
"Go home!"
The psychic ship marked with the Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion insignia took to the skies!
Then, one by one, the elite warriors and masters of various forces, along with their disciples, boarded their psychic ships.
The eyes of all the psychics on the psychic ships were zing.
Yes!
Their hopes were few, but even in the darkest of futures, ckwood stood at the forefront, fighting alongside them.
That was enough.
Though death befalls, no regrets!
"Spectral Vision Sect!"
"ck Tortoise!"
"Ten Thousand Life Mountain!"
"..."
"Go home!"
