It seems that the Moon Goddess wants to take back the divinity or godhood of the Lady of Tides, but was stopped by the Sun God.
"Could this magical beast tide be related to the Holy Life Alliance?" Lin Ke mused inwardly.
However, it seems that in the end, even the Sun God retreated, though the reason is unknown.
This inexplicably made Lin Ke feel a surge of irritation.
Not only is he unqualified to enter the game between these big figures, but he might also be killed by some of the aftershocks.
And at this moment, it seems that because the Lady of Tides has been eliminated, the attacks condensed by these magical beasts have also dissipated, and the sky has returned to tranquility once more.
The night has faded, and the midday sky appears once more, making it seem as if the whole world is as peaceful and calm as before, as if nothing had happened.
But many people know, the times have changed!
Ove descended from the sky, looking extremely solemn, and said to Lin Ke, "Lin Ke, will you go to my realm to hide?"
Ove’s personality isn’t competitive, rather it’s the "can’t afford to provoke, so I’ll hide" type, and he’s also socially anxious.
"Teacher, remain calm." Lin Ke shook his head, calming Ove, then walked forward briskly.
The nobles were scolding their guards and servants, while some were calming their mounts like reindeer and horses, creating chaos.
Yet after Lin Ke arrived, he inevitably attracted everyone’s attention.
After all, moments ago, they were supposed to bear a lot of aftershock damage, but with Ove around, not only did they not have to suffer any harm, they also got to hear the confrontation among these major figures.
Yes, to the top-tier figures, these counts and marquises present were merely small characters.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have seen the sudden change just now." Lin Ke’s voice was low, using an amplification spell.
Everyone fell silent immediately.
Originally, they all acted independently, busy calming their own people, and calming themselves.
However, Lin Ke knew in advance about the impending war, so he was mentally prepared and not panicking at all.
Thus, everyone was influenced by Lin Ke’s calmness.
"Everyone, without the suppression of the Lady of Tides, the endless magical beasts of the Lava Swamp will soon gush out, posing a disaster to our Gula Kingdom, especially to the nobles near the Lava Swamp." Lin Ke’s voice was low and solemn, causing others to change their expressions.
Only Azanen borders the swamp, but the territories bordering Azanen are numerous!
As some people’s expressions fluctuated, Lin Ke spoke again, "Everyone! We have His Majesty Insomnia!"
The mention of His Majesty Insomnia brought the scene back to silence.
Lin Ke marveled at the deterrent power of the King of Black and White, but continued, "We must hold our territories before His Majesty Insomnia and they arrive! But..."
With that, Lin Ke scanned around, locking eyes with Count Akel, Count Giant Sword, and other influential figures: "...But, a single tree cannot withstand a storm! We must band together! Ten dispersed troops of a thousand people cannot defeat a united force of ten thousand!"
"I don’t want to lose my territory and then rely on His Majesty Insomnia and them to reclaim it for me! I am a noble! A noble with glorious ancestry flowing through my veins!"
Lin Ke’s words were resolute and forceful.
The scene paused as everyone pondered Lin Ke’s words.
Indeed! If a noble loses their land and then relies on other nobles to reclaim it, their ancestors would probably be so angry they’d come back as vengeful spirits.
"Little Lin Ke, what do you propose to do?" Count Akel was indeed Lin Ke’s acknowledged friend, being the first to speak up.
Lin Ke cast a grateful glance at Akel, then spoke, "I will build a fortress outside the swamp, accessible to all allied forces! The entire Azanen army will be dispatched, retaining only the basic guarding force, and my teacher, the Starlight-level practitioner Ove, will Discover more novels on NovelHub - your gateway to endless stories... lead the charge!"
This declaration stunned everyone.
Leading the charge is usually the task for the strongest practitioners or a suicide squad.
Nobles, their favorite place is often behind the scenes.
Being cautious or fearing death, or strategic calculations --
It’s rare for anyone to lead the charge.
But Lin Ke remembered, in the previous life’s Steel Alliance, someone like Zheng Wei often died the fastest because they were always at the forefront.
And those Zheng Wei, due to high casualty rates, weren’t even equipped with firearms, instead charging with benches.
This is the terrifying cohesion of the former Steel Alliance!
And while the past world was one of equal beings, here is a world with power disparities.
Lin Ke, as a noble, must rally the entire spirit of Azanen, or there’s no way out!
"I remember my father said... the oldest nobles are often the bravest, leading their people towards hope and glory..."
At this moment, Princess Rica’s cool voice came forth, and nobles turned their heads to look, only to find tears faintly residing at the edge of Rica’s eyes.
Just now, Rica’s elder sister, the Lady of Tides had fallen, and it appeared Rica and the Lady of Tides had a close relationship.
And now, Princess Rica remained calm, though the green pupils harbored a vague anger, growing larger, making Rica’s voice even cooler:
