Chapter 1714: Chapter 575: The Great Maker, Actions of the Watcher
"Lord, good night."
Cao Xing nodded slightly, then ordered, "Next, Zoke and Zofe, you two will lead the entire Wandering Swordsman Corps to a Territory a dozen kilometers away from our Territory to support them in tonight’s Monster Attack challenge."
"Futage, you will lead all the Silver Knights and Griffins to a Territory about two hundred kilometers away from our Territory to provide support."
"There will be someone there to receive you when you arrive."
On the field, the three Leaders straightened their backs at once after hearing this. "Yes! We guarantee the mission will be completed!"
As the words fell, Zoke and Zofe took dozens of Wandering Swordsmen and headed toward Yao Yiming’s Territory.
Futage, on the other hand, took 99 Silver Knights and a large number of Griffins and flew into the sky.
Watching their departing figures, Cao Xing thought to himself.
"With that group of fully leveled Seventh Rank Wandering Swordsmen in Yao Yiming’s Territory, they should be able to help him push to the ninth, or even the tenth wave of the Monster Attack."
"Over at Ji Xinyue’s side, she has a large number of Fifth Rank Silver Hand Knight Legions, plus two Seventh Rank Knight Order Leaders. That should be enough to hit the eighth or ninth wave."
"In other words, if tonight’s Monster Attack goes smoothly, they’ll both be guaranteed at least two Bright Moon Treasure Boxes."
Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
For Survivors at the current stage, any single Bright Moon Treasure Box is an extremely precious resource.
Many people have only heard of them up to now and have never even seen one.
And that’s not even counting several Golden Treasure Boxes and Silver Treasure Boxes from the earlier waves.
So if they can pull some good stuff from the Treasure Boxes this time, their strength can get a solid boost.
Next, with nothing else to do, Cao Xing continued strolling around the Territory.
As he walked, he eventually arrived at the Blacksmith Shop district.
"Come to think of it... Harold is a Master-level Blacksmith now. One more step and he’ll become a Legendary-level Blacksmith."
"And in my backpack I still have 25 Skill Level Emblems in total, which adds up to 125,000 Skill Level points."
"I wonder if that’s enough to max out Harold’s Skill Level directly?"
Cao Xing decided to go in and ask.
He pushed open the door of one of the Blacksmith Shops and, in passing, glanced over Harold’s Skill Level panel.
[Master-level Forging Mastery: 19672/200000]
...
"Only a tenth of the Skill Level bar?"
"Looks like there’s still a gap if I want Harold to break through to Legendary."
Shaking his head, Cao Xing walked out of the Blacksmith Shop again.
Time flashed by, and it was already 23:55 at night.
There were only five minutes left before the Monster Attack began.
Without Cao Xing needing to give the word, the thousands of Combat Personnel in the entire Territory had already gathered outside the Territory, ready to face the final Monster Attack of the night.
Voices from other Vice Commanders also came through the Legion Channel.
Yao Yiming: "Squad Leader, we’re ready. The entire Wandering Swordsman Corps has arrived at my Territory."
Ji Xinyue: "Cao Xing bro, we’re ready here too. The Griffin Knight Group is already waiting in the skies above my Territory."
Cao Xing replied, "Good. Remember to act within your limits. If you feel the difficulty in the previous wave, don’t force the next one."
The two responded one after another.
"Understood!"
"No problem!"
After closing the chat channel, Cao Xing said nothing more.
He continued to stand within the Territory, silently waiting for the Monster Attack to arrive.
...
...
At the same time.
In the pitch-black night sky, several figures in gray Robes, their gazes deep and unfathomable, floated in midair.
Each person radiated an extremely vast and profound aura.
These beings were the Watchers.
They stared down at the boundless Earth below and the Human Giant Cities that gleamed with scattered points of light.
Among them, a figure whose aura surged like an ocean, surrounded by several Watcher Elders, slowly withdrew his gaze.
He turned his head and asked, "Viper Elder, has the Blood already been spread?"
The one he named was a presence with a gloomy aura, a Weapon at his waist like a Spirit Snake, and strength at the Legendary level as well.
This Watcher Elder reported reverently, "Leader, the Blood has already been successfully spread. The King of Velen is unaware. We can seal the entire Sel Main City at any time now and then carry out the ritual to summon the Blood."
Hearing this, several figures on the field were visibly stirred.
Ever since they were beaten back a thousand years ago, they had been dormant for far too long!
Now, the time to emerge once more had finally come!
After a pause, this Viper Elder suddenly asked:
"But... Leader, there is something I don’t quite understand. Why not just Blood Sacrifice all the Lives in Sel Main City?"
"Wouldn’t that make opening the Blood Portal much faster?"
When he heard this, the Leader immediately turned around, his eagle-like eyes staring straight at this man.
He didn’t say a single word, yet it made this Watcher Elder feel an extremely terrifying pressure, as if his Heart had been tightly gripped, filling him with a sense of Suffocation!
Even the other Watcher Elders, at the instant the Leader’s aura erupted, were so frightened they didn’t dare utter a single extra word.
In this oppressive atmosphere, another Elder at the side tried to smooth things over and said, "Lea... Leader... Viper Elder just spoke off the cuff. He’s only thinking for the organization; he meant nothing else."
"Please spare him this time..."
Hearing this, the Viper Elder hurriedly nodded as well. "Yes, honorable Lord Leader!"
"I only wish for the Watchers to complete the plan faster, to let the Blood descend upon the Earth. My heart is entirely for the organization!"
After listening, the Leader gradually reined in that terrifying aura on his body.
However, his eyes were still cold as Frost as he said, "Let me reiterate once more: what are the doctrines of us Watchers?"
"Our mission is to overthrow all forces that oppress the people, to eradicate those Vampires and parasites feeding off the people!"
"The Kingdom, the Church, the Territories—all are our targets for destruction!"
"After ten thousand years of development, this feudal system has become deeply entrenched, branded deep into the hearts of the masses."
"Only the most radical and decisive methods can awaken the long-slumbering rebellious Consciousness in people’s hearts!"
"A thousand years ago, we failed."
"This time, we will face difficulties, obstacles, and even coordinated strikes from many factions, yet we will not retreat in the slightest!"
"Even if we pay with our Lives, we will carry our mission through to the end!"
"But there is one thing that must be emphasized: no matter the situation, we must never lay a hand on ordinary people."
"Is that clear?"
His tone was extremely serious!
His eyes, sharp as an eagle’s, scrutinized every person present.
All the Watcher Elders replied solemnly in unison, "Clear, honorable Leader!"
Seeing this, the Leader nodded slightly.
Then he turned into a Meteor and plunged straight toward the Human city below.
The other Elders followed close behind.
At the very rear of the group, the Viper Elder who had just been reprimanded looked at the Watcher Leader’s back, a trace of deeply hidden venomous hatred flickering in his eyes...
