Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2959 1618: Fortress and Contemplation

“Lord Clan Leader of the Fox People, please speak freely.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, looking into the eyes filled with urgency across from him.

During their interactions, Leo Ray had learned that the Tunnel Fox Race Leader, who was good friends with Lila, was named Xiya, and had been instrumental from the very start.

“Your Majesty of the Humans, at present, the various second-tier powers are in a state of decline and urgently need someone of high prestige to take charge. We request Your Majesty of the Humans to become the new Master of the Throne Corridor and guide us on our path forward!”

Xiya did not hesitate, urgently pleading with Leo Ray.

“The Foxman Clan Leader is right; please, Your Majesty of the Humans, do not refuse; guide us on our path forward!”

The other monarchs and powerful figures of the second-tier powers all wore the same expression, speaking in unison.

Among them, Lila and Hollis, needless to say, even Prince Chasing Shadow nodded, clearly agreeing with this proposal.

“Sorry, everyone, forgive me for not complying.”

Facing the eager eyes of everyone, Leo Ray shook his head slightly and responded, “For so many years, the Throne Corridor has left an indelible shadow over all of you. I have decided to completely destroy it. From today on, the Throne Corridor will cease to exist.”

“Only by completely abandoning this past can we embrace a new beginning.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was initially stunned but then heavily nodded in succession.

Your Majesty of the Humans is right; all these years, the Throne Corridor has been like a Grim Reaper’s peak pressing down on everyone’s heads, making them live perpetually in the shadows of fear, suppression, and deprivation.

To move forward boldly, it is indeed necessary to completely break through this thorny path to make the journey ahead smoother.

“We entirely agree with Your Majesty of the Humans’ decision. Ultimately, the title of Master of the Corridor is just a name; what we care about is having Your Majesty of the Humans lead!”

Xiya placed a hand over her chest and continued, “Therefore, please, Your Majesty of the Humans, choose a new name for our force, and we are willing to become part of it!”

“That’s right; wherever Your Majesty of the Humans is, that is our home!”

Other monarchs and powerful figures also agreed, speaking in unison once more.

“In that case, I will not disappoint your trust and expectations.”

Leo Ray pondered for a moment before speaking with a solemn face, “From the moment I led the Human Clan into the Outer Region, my goal has always been solely to have the Human Clan join hands with more Outer Region forces to face numerous future challenges together, such as the Great Catastrophe, and the even more unpredictable Plate Wars.”

“I believe that many hands make light work. Instead of standing aloof, it is better to accommodate all rivers, allowing every force to have a space to realize its value; this is my original intention.”

At this point, Leo Ray detailed everything he knew about the Great Catastrophe and his predictions regarding the Plate Wars to everyone, not only laying the foundation for the new force but also helping everyone understand the direction for the future.

After hearing Leo Ray’s description, all the monarchs had expressions of uncontrollable excitement, nodding repeatedly in agreement, even Prince Chasing Shadow nodded repeatedly, which was rare.

In their eyes, Leo Ray’s importance grew to an exalted level that was difficult to articulate.

Regarding the imminent Great Catastrophe, these second-tier powers’ monarchs naturally possessed considerable understanding.

Especially over nearly a century, with the increasing instability of the magical ley lines, leading to more frequent Corrosion outbreaks, it was a huge boulder pressing on everyone’s heart, impossible to shake off, yet they were powerless to do anything.

After all, every first-class force chose to remain aloof and considered other forces as burdens or dispensable entities.

After the Broken Wing King had elevated above all forces, he was particularly narrow-minded, concerned only with his plundering and suppression, making the situation for all forces increasingly difficult.

Now, Leo Ray’s first goal of advancing hand in hand with everyone to fight against the unknown, destructive catastrophes could not help but stir everyone’s emotions.

“In my view, this vast land where we reside is like a massive ‘Fortress.'”

“Since the day I stepped out from the Human Clan’s room, what I aimed to do was to connect as many rooms as possible until the entire ‘Fortress’ is completely connected.”

“Only by doing so can we focus on reinforcing the defense of the entire ‘Fortress,’ in preparation for future challenges, which not only includes the Great Catastrophe but also other ‘Fortresses.’

Leo Ray’s voice echoed in everyone’s ears as he continued, “Therefore, how about calling the new force Fortress Alliance?”

“Fortress Alliance, is it? As expected of Your Majesty of the Humans, truly an evocative and mighty name!”

The young Frost Fire Giant King couldn’t stop nodding, his face full of excitement, “Our Frostfire Giant Kingdom is willing to join the Fortress Alliance!”

“The Stone Giant is willing to join!”

“The Half-Titan is willing to join!”

“The Desert Fishman is willing to join!”

“The Moon Shadow Deer People are willing to join!”

“The Tunnel Foxman is also willing to join!”

…

For a moment, every monarch rushed to echo this sentiment, even Prince Chasing Shadow eventually nodded in agreement.

“Please, Your Majesty of the Humans, assume the great position of Master of the Fortress!”
