“The fourth layer of the Spirit World, Realm of All Spirits!”

“In there, the macroscopic and microscopic, science and mysticism, are all perfectly unified.”

If Su Lu hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he couldn’t have imagined that the universe he existed in, when observed from a larger scale, would take on the appearance of atoms or planets!

Each planet is a different universe!

All these universes combined only account for less than one ten-thousandth of the Realm of All Spirits!

“The main theme of the Realm of All Spirits is darkness, the unknown, void, indescribable… chaos with many undercurrents, even energy exchange…”

“My Spiritual Body is still too weak. In there, I’m simply an ant! Even if there were no dark undercurrents, I wouldn’t be able to survive in the Realm of All Spirits for long… just like humans can’t survive directly in space!”

Dawn.

Su Lu tidied up his clothes, walked out of the shack he had lived in for many years, facing the rising sun: “It’s time to go…”

He had finished exploring the Death God Ruins, and the experience points he gained fulfilled another one of his legendary requirements.

At this point, he needs to increase all four of his attributes to 10.0, and earn 10,000 experience points.

“Almost a year passed. I wonder how the Messiah is doing. I was indeed an unqualified teacher…”

In the Western Region, Rose Castle.

As the last defense line to the Tulip Fortress, the Western Region and the Northern Territory armies had engaged in ferociously brutal skirmishes over the last six months.

In the ancient times, attacking a castle, even if the attackers had several times more soldiers, often led to heavy casualties.

Even in this world, where the strength of transcendent knights and wizards exists, the situation is the same.

Underneath the Rose Castle, too much fresh blood of the Northern Territory’s brave warriors has been spilled.

The existing animosity between the two sides, catalyzed by killing and slaughter, becomes even more intense.

Deep cow horn sounds linger.

“The Northerners are attacking again, prepare the arrows!”

“Fire!”

Thud Thud!

A rain of arrows falls from the castle, with most blocked by the wooden shields carried by the Northerners. Occasionally an unlucky soul is struck by an arrow slipping through a crack, falling to the ground screaming.

Using their shields for cover, the Northerners reach the blind spots of the castle and start to ram the door with tools or build ladders.

“Rocks! Fire!”

Bang Bang!

This time, large stones weighing dozens or hundreds of pounds fall, causing even more dreadful casualties.

By relying on the wall, the defenders have a great advantage.

However, this world is ultimately different in certain ways.

“Charge!”

From atop a ladder, a knight bellows with rage, a bronze glow emerging around him.

“It’s a Bronze Knight, quick, aim arrow shooters at him!”

“Call other knights to deal with him!”

Whoosh Whoosh!

Several arrows hit the target, but all are blocked by the bronze glow.

This knight roars and leaps into the crowd, his giant door-sized sword sweeping around like a whirlwind. The effect is like mowing grass, with large numbers of Western Region soldiers falling down, blood and viscera spilled everywhere.

“In the name of honor, kill!”

Several Black Iron level knights surround the Bronze Knight, launching an attack.

With the help of the transferred Divine Archers, this Bronze Knight finally felt threatened. After all, he was not a Silver Knight whose whole body was covered in fighting Qi, he still had blind spots and loopholes! On the battlefield, this was a major weakness!

“I will definitely return.”

He roared in anger, grabbed the siege ladder and leaped backward.

The strength of a second-tier Occupational Person permitted him to jump from here without suffering much damage.

The iron knights on the city wall secretly heaved a sigh of relief and then howled, ordering the soldiers to fill the gap.

The battle continued until twilight.

Under the order to retreat, both sides finally gradually stopped the killing and retreated.

Some rescue personnel with a circle of white cloth wrapped around their shoulders began to clean up the battlefield and rescue the wounded.

Originally, this was a service that only belonged to the nobility, but after several insistences from the Church of the Mother Earth Goddess, the nobles finally agreed to deploy a certain number of priests in their armies.

These devout followers of Mother Earth strictly adhered to their neutral duties of treating the wounded, and as a result, their prestige was very high.

Twilight was as bloody as ever.

In the high tower of Rose Castle, the Messiah, quietly observing this scene through a fist-sized window, sighed and returned to her seat.

After a year of recuperation, this queen had largely recovered. She grew very fast and now wore a black battle dress, exuding the charm of a female knight.

The presence of Her Majesty in the castle was a great morale boost for Rose Castle’s firm resistance.

At this moment, the face of the Messiah was full of concern: “Half a year of battle, more than a thousand of the defending troops have been killed or wounded… Most importantly, the resources and strength of the Western nobles are gradually being exhausted…”

“The young duke in the rear is slowly growing, adapting and grasping power… Although Sir Shacker firmly supports me, but…”

A trace of worry appeared on her forehead, which immediately turned into firmness: “No… I must hold on! The attackers’ losses are several times mine… The Duke of the North Territory must already be unable to hold on.”

At this time, there was a rustling sound in the darkness.

Several gray castle rats, common in the castle, crawled out of the hole, stood in a row, each one standing in front of Messiah, making squeaks and gestures.

Communication with animals!

This was not the ability of a [Shepherd], only third or fourth-tiered Transcendents in this occupational path might master this technique!

But perhaps because the Messiah was a descendant of the [Dragon Shepherd], and went through an incomplete Dragon Blood Baptism, this triggered some hidden power in her bloodline, allowing her to master this ability in advance.

It was undoubtedly very useful.

Through observing various birds, especially eagles, Messiah could quickly grasp the situation of the entire battlefield.

And ubiquitous insects and rats were her most loyal spies, gathering all information within the castle for her.

Even the most profound conspirators planning in secret rooms would never pay attention to a few spiders or rats nearby.

And it was through these creatures, that young Messiah learned how deceitful the hearts of the people in this world could be! While she was deeply shocked by these, she was not scared by the darkness and cruelty, but instead grew up swiftly.

“Hiss!”

At this moment, a small black snake fell from the wooden rack, hissing as if to remind her.

“Someone’s coming?”

Messiah furrowed her brows, waved her hand and all the small animals in the room hid away, everything seemed to return to normal.

“Your Majesty the Queen!”

A knock on the door followed, “Shacker requests an audience!”

“Ahem… Is it Sir Shacker? Please come in!”

Messiah adjusted her sitting posture, trying her best to look majestic, looking at the entering Shacker: “What is the matter?”

“Your Majesty, your court’s Chief Mage has returned.”

Shacker stepped aside to reveal Su Lu.

Seeing the visitor, Messiah’s eyes lit up, unable to maintain the queen’s dignity any longer, she ran over: “Teacher!”
