I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 695: Shadows Surging



Kelleb looked at Lis, somewhat in disbelief.

"Are you saying, those Evil God believers are very likely to attack Lonely Mountain City today?"

"How do you know?"

Lis shook his head and said with a smile:

"Of course, I don't know their plans."

"But if I were one of those Evil God believers, I certainly wouldn't miss such a chance today."

"The Fiery Fire Festival is one of the most important festivals for the Dwarf Clan, and Lonely Mountain City is the Kingdom of the entire Dwarf Kingdom."

"Attacking Lonely Mountain City during the Fiery Fire Festival is the most suitable choice for them."

As soon as Lis finished speaking, Kelleb couldn't help but say:

"In that case, let's rush to inform the Dwarf Royal Court now."

"Why the rush?"

Seeing this, Lis shook his head and said:

"Don't underestimate those Dwarves' tempers; the Dwarf Kingdom has gone through no less than what the War God Church has experienced."

"Do you think they wouldn't know that Lonely Mountain City during the Fiery Fire Festival is extremely dangerous and would be easily targeted by those Evil God believers?"

"I'm sure those Dwarves have prepared secretly."

"Is that so?"

Kelleb was somewhat unsure; before breaking through to Legend, he was a legendary seed of the War God Church.

Although he had experienced many things, the church rarely let him deal with matters related to Evil God believers.

Most of Kelleb's understanding of Evil God believers came from what he learned from others, with little firsthand experience.

So his understanding of Evil God believers is not extensive.

"Of course, if those Evil God believers could easily cause such great destruction, the Dwarf Kingdom would have been destroyed long ago and wouldn't have been able to last all these years."

"Even the Elf Royal Court was just an accident; they only faced a Demon Prince's strike, and I suspect there were internal problems as well."

Lis paused, then continued:

"It's like your War God Church's Ambundo City; can you imagine Ambundo City being destroyed by those Evil God believers?"

"Of course, I can't imagine that."

Kelleb replied without hesitation.

Although Lis's comparison was somewhat offensive, Kelleb quickly understood what Lis meant.

"So, what do you think we should do?"

Kelleb was somewhat undecided.

"Wait for those Evil God believers to make a bigger mistake."

Lis said with a smile.

"Of course, if necessary, we can also secretly provide some assistance to the Dwarf Kingdom."

"But this needs to be done with preparation, especially without exposing my existence."

"I understand, I'll follow your lead."

Kelleb was silent for a moment and then said to Lis.

In fact, he had no resistance to Lis's request.

One reason was because of Lis's identity as the World Tree Favored.

The other reason was because of the process where Lis fought him while hidden.

Even though neither of them used their true strength, Kelleb understood from this probing alone that he was definitely no match for Lis.

Moreover, he didn't know why, but he always felt a sense of fear in front of Lis.

This somewhat special feeling also made Kelleb have no thoughts of resisting Lis's arrangements.

Lis nodded, about to release the Shadow Space, when he suddenly seemed to think of something.

He turned and said to Kelleb;

"Be a little careful these days."

"The Dwarf Kingdom certainly knows more than we do, but you, as a collaborator, know nothing."

"That's a bit unusual."

"I... understand."

Hearing Lis's reminder, Kelleb was also a bit hesitant.

Before this, he just wanted to quickly reach an agreement with the Dwarf Kingdom and return to the War God Church.

It now seemed like he had gotten himself into a big trouble.

And because of that Legendary Day Elf, he couldn't easily withdraw.

Should he notify the church to send more powerful people?

Kelleb shook his head.

Right now, the War God Church was already very short-staffed due to the chaos caused by the Phillips Crystal at the Dwarf Kingdom border.

Kelleb didn't want the War God Church to allocate additional manpower for this matter.

Otherwise, his visit to Lonely Mountain City would be meaningless.

With the World Tree Favored Lis here, nothing should go wrong.

Thinking of this, Kelleb suddenly remembered his friend Richie.

If the Dwarf Kingdom had any advance preparations, Richie should know.

But this guy hadn't revealed anything to him at all.

Although he could understand Richie's predicament, it still left Kelleb feeling a bit disappointed.

This firmed his resolve even more, not to tell anyone about Lis's matters.

Seeing this, Lis nodded, then released the Shadow Space.

Only to see a dark current surging before their eyes, and the two returned to a street in Lonely Mountain City.

The Dwarves passing by didn't notice them, as if they had always belonged there.

Lis patted Kelleb on the shoulder and said with a smile like an old friend:

"How about it, want to grab a drink together?"

"If anything happens later, we can go check it out together."

Kelleb hesitated at these words and nodded.

In fact, after Lis's previous sneaky attack, Kelleb already had a bit of a psychological shadow.

Last time, he was planning to go to that small tavern and was attacked halfway by that Legendary Day Elf.

And today, Kelleb was also planning to go to that tavern and was intercepted by Lis halfway for a good 'guidance' session.
