Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2584: 1424: Strategy and Deployment (Part 2)
Capítulo 2584: Chapter 1424: Strategy and Deployment (Part 2)
“Lord, are you saying that the potential crack in the Magic Barrier is precisely where the magical leyline is erupting?”
Shelly’s eyes sparkled, and she immediately understood, exclaiming, “My Lord, what you said is absolutely right. The cracks that were produced during the magical leyline’s eruption, although they have been repaired, are undoubtedly the weakest points of the entire magical restriction!”
As soon as Shelly spoke, those among the wood fairies with the deepest understanding of magic, like Crisis, nodded with excitement. Indeed, the repaired sections of the Barrier are weaker than other parts!
One must know that, like the Flower Fairies who once maintained the Barrier for the ancient Human Tribe, the Wood Fairies also have a profound understanding of magic barriers.
“That’s right. If a crack in the Magic Barrier were to form, these places where cracks appeared before are most likely, such as the Loren Royal City Ruins and the depths of the Dragon Nest at Mist Dream Peak.”
Leo Ray confirmed Shelly’s view and continued, “So, we must focus on monitoring these locations and deploy the corresponding Absolute Defense Barrier. I will hold a meeting later to arrange this overnight.”
Leo Ray clearly understood that, although the content of King West’s commissioned task suggests that the Great Catastrophe’s cracks will appear in the Human Domain, he cannot confirm whether these cracks will only appear there or simultaneously in other areas of the Outer Region.
Therefore, none of these places can be ignored. After all, as I advance, more and more areas of the Outer Region are becoming part of my sphere of influence. At least in the areas I control, there must be full deployment.
As Leo Ray pondered, the eyes of the gathered powerful beings became increasingly resolute.
With the Lord’s strategic planning, our confidence in resisting the ‘Corrosion’ has undoubtedly increased!
“Your Majesty, should we stop the search for the Great Catastrophe cracks in the areas of the Dimensional Storm and the Dislocated Objects?”
The Grey Elder pondered for a moment, then asked again.
“No, I will invest more manpower, resources, and finances. Although our previous two investigative and defensive directions may not relate to the Great Catastrophe cracks, they are undeniably things we have yet to understand. So, adjustments can be made, but the investigation must continue.”
Leo Ray gently stroked his chin and replied, “The matter of the Dislocated Objects goes without saying, especially the increasingly frequent Dimensional Storms in recent years. We have acquired the ability to handle them, yet we still don’t understand the reason behind their formation.”
“Understood, Your Majesty.”
The Grey Elder’s face was full of experience, and he frowned again, saying, “Your Majesty, there is one more thing that needs urgent handling: the event at Old Nick’s location.”
“In the depths of the cave, that teleportation portal, though difficult to activate, undeniably marks a place within the unknown ruins active with ‘Corrosion’—perhaps it still is.”
Upon hearing the Grey Elder’s words, Ariel Watson immediately concurred, “Indeed, my Lord, a magical leyline eruption must have occurred there, and it’s not far from Viennas City. Once the other side repairs the teleportation gate, even if few in number, it would surely pose a significant threat to the surrounding Coldflame Citizens.”
“This is indeed a matter requiring focused attention. I will conduct comprehensive deployment of the entire area, including the cave, and relocate the surrounding population to safer locations. Once my hands are free, I will personally explore that unknown ruin and eradicate the ‘Corrosion’ within.”
Leo Ray nodded without hesitation, his gaze becoming sharper.
“Lord, how should we arrange the White Knight?”
Shelly bowed and inquired again, “Should we keep it here to prevent surprises? But this is the core of the Coldflame Palace.”
“Indeed, it would be nice to have a place with functions similar to the Lion King Temple, preferably far from populous areas and the power center.”
The Grey Elder rubbed his elderly chin in agreement.
“There is such a place—Crystal Blue City.”
After thinking for a moment, Leo Ray suddenly realized and said, “The function of Chasing Light Castle is remarkably similar to the Lion King Temple. If it could host other beings aside from Sean Parker and others, it would be ideal.”
“Though Crystal Blue City can only operate within the Human Domain, it can instantly reach any remote location.”
With that, Leo Ray immediately looked at Shelly and Elder Bing, saying, “The comprehensive investigation of Chasing Light Castle is entrusted to you both. As the master of Chasing Light Castle, I will grant the maximum access to the Miracle Building to assist your investigation. Before that, the White Knight will have to endure residing in the depths of the Lion King Temple, with rotation guarding by the Stone Spirit holder and the Stone Spirits.”
“As you command, my Lord!”
Hearing this, everyone bowed their chests in unison, responding in one voice.
“Well then, we should leave here as well.”
After Leo Ray spoke, he took his steps.
Upon returning to Lion Castle, the first thing Leo Ray did was to summon the Seven Kings of humans, Quinn Serena, other Lord representatives, and leaders of our powers in the Outer Region including Crisis, for a meeting to inform them of the latest Great Catastrophe intelligence. This was Leo Ray’s first time holding such a large-scale meeting, gathering all the main forces under his command.
After detailing everything, the second task Leo Ray undertook was to comprehensively deploy monitoring and defense measures at every location within our sphere of influence where magical leylines have erupted.
Once everyone, with stern faces, left to fulfill their orders, Leo Ray finally took a sigh of relief and returned to the Queen’s chamber with Ariel Watson.
“My Lord, after such a long period of busyness, finally we can rest a bit.”
Ariel Watson handed Leo Ray a cup of hot tea and sighed emotionally.
“This is just the beginning. What lies ahead for us isn’t merely the impending Great Catastrophe. In the deeper Outer Regions, formidable entities yet beyond our reach still stand against us.”
Holding the steaming teacup, Leo Ray smiled and said, “However, this rugged path is no longer just us alone, but now with a growing number of companions.”
“My Lord is indeed right. To see so many Outer Region powerhouses gathered was truly astonishing, even Queen Catherine was surprised, and Cecilia, Lawrence, Eckhart, Willy, and Phil were all extremely tense.”
Ariel Watson blinked her sparkling eyes, clearly treasuring the time alone with Leo Ray, animatedly saying, “The adorable fairies, not to mention, the Treants were very stable, and the Dwarf Elves looked quite friendly. The most hair-raising were the exceedingly robust Trolls and Minotaurs.”
“But they show great respect towards my Lord, which is incredibly encouraging to me, as these are beings that have always looked down upon humans.”
“Oh, that Dragonborn Queen is strikingly similar to us, such a surprise…”
Listening to Ariel Watson’s continuous chatter, Leo Ray smiled broadly, sipping the tea.
Despite Ariel Watson’s melodious voice lingering beside his ears, he felt a rare peace and calm inside.
Nevertheless, although everything was proceeding smoothly, one matter weighed heavily on his mind.
It is about the means of countering the ‘Corrosion.’ Relying solely on the power of the [Stone of God] seems somewhat too limited.
During just the battle at the Dragon Nest, he nearly exhausted all the power of the Stone Spirits.
“Might there be other means that could harm the ‘Corrosion’? In any case, the collection of other [Stone of God] must be intensified.”
With this thought, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Moreover, there is another extremely important matter looming imminently.
