Chapter 2313 - 102: Crow's Prophecy

He once made a promise with utmost confidence, determined to establish a grand Adventure Group, even surpassing the Morning Dawn Star, to show Miss Sicape his skills.

He was not afraid of becoming an enemy of the Descendants of Flor, nor did he fear being wanted by all the Grand Guilds; he wanted to become a legend like Loofah, single-handedly resisting the pressure from the entire Alliance—to prove that the spirit of the Free Summoner has not perished.

But what can this change?

He told Little Kong not to give up on chasing dreams, yet he suddenly felt a bit lost himself—

Sometimes he had to admit that Sophie was right, no matter how much he stood against the Alliance, the other side was still there. He could cause some trouble for them, but what would that accomplish? He might defeat one Jiefulite Red Cloak Team, but there are many Jiefulite Red Cloak Teams.

Even the Descendants of Flor.

There are also plenty of Crow's Claw Sanctuaries that would appear on this land, colluding with those greedy ones. He can defeat enemies, but he cannot defeat the greed within people's hearts.

Fang Hong silently closed the communication with Red Leaf—

He glanced at the few lines of text left in another chat box, which was an email Su Changfeng left him regarding his questions about the Northern Territory a day ago:

'Only the Alliance can integrate the strength of most Invokers in this world.'

'You must understand, its existence stems from an international consensus, not just a mere organization. What ensures its existence is not only its own functions—but also the balance between countries and powers behind it.'

'Though this might sound straightforward, it is due to this consensus that we can cooperate and dialogue with other nations on Stargate affairs.'

'Little Hong, we asked you to help investigate the Alliance because some among them are trying to interfere in Colin Ishurian's political struggles, not only violating the "Stargate Declaration" regulations but also harming our related interests. At the same time, these events involve the sensitive factor of the Dark Followers.'

'But that's all, you must recognize this.

Indeed, it's impossible to dream of completely overthrowing the Alliance; no matter how the Seven Seas Travel Group grows, it will never be possible.

This is something Loofah could not achieve, and naturally, he cannot either.

As long as such relationships remain, defeating one Evil Dragon only brings another Evil Dragon.

Was the once glorious history really just a dream?

At this moment, a strange command suddenly came from the front, and Fang Hong looked up to find a group of knights in black and white robes appearing by the street. He had seen quite a few of these knights over the past days, they are the Grey Knights from the Crow's Claw Sanctuary.

Yet when these knights saw him, they suddenly changed direction and walked towards him. Fang Hong hesitated for a moment, turned around, and found no one else behind him; the knights spread out and drew their weapons.

"It's him—"

"The one with that woman, the Bishop wants to see them."

The knights shouted orders.

Their glaring longswords appeared rather grim in the cold wind.

Fang Hong was stunned upon witnessing this, realizing these knights were coming for him; what was going on?
