Chapter 978: One shot into the golden throne

The elders were shocked: "Parasyped?"

Xila laughed: "Compared to the opportunity to meet a legendary guardian, paralysis is nothing. Look at Dachun, he's perfectly fine in his wheelchair."

Gabriel scoffed, "Yeah, he can't beat you even in a wheelchair!"

Sila roared, "You bitch!"

Michael was in high spirits as his career was just beginning: "In any case, Gabriel's investigation mission is now complete, and you can freely explore the desert. As long as the head maid is here, being paralyzed won't affect your combat effectiveness."

Sariel laughed and said, "That's right, since you're a doctor, paralysis won't affect your spellcasting."

Gabriel sighed, "It still has an impact; casting is much slower now."

So Gabriel specifically sought out the head maid to confirm: "Head Maid, I've met the legendary pirate guardian. Will the Emperor be displeased?"

The head maid said, "For His Majesty, anything that can be investigated and resolved is a good thing."

Since that's the case, Gabriel simply stopped asking about the consequences of dismantling the core: "Then, Head Maid, may we begin our desert survey now?"

The head maid said, "Go forth, like the free wind of the desert!"

Gabriel was genuinely surprised. This statement was completely unlike the rigid head maid's usual tone. Had something been triggered?
In short, freedom is all I want!
Just then, the steward came over to report: "The Angel of Wine, the Angel of Shoes, and Pava have been spotted landing at the Black Iron City teleportation array."

Michael was astonished: "What on earth are they doing?"

Butler: "Previously, no players had witnessed them appearing anywhere else. It was as if they suddenly disappeared from Ironflame Village and then reappeared..."

The next moment, three angels appeared simultaneously at the Gem City teleportation array.

The Angel of Wine directly shouted throughout the city: "Is the Bronze Throne looking for me?"

Metatron and Michael had been waiting: "The Jewel Throne—"

The wine angel laughed and said, "I'm just an intern, no seat, no seat, I'm too kind."

Metatron adopted a pleading attitude, first offering flattery: "In the battle of Ironflame Village, Lord Bacchus displayed bravery and enthusiasm, which I greatly admire. Now, the Empire is also preparing to develop a distillery on the newly acquired territory of Evil Spirit Island. I know this is your specialty, and I hope you can still be happy to help."

Michael bowed and said, "Lord Michael of Evil Spirit Island begs for your assistance, Your Majesty."

The Wine Angel laughed heartily: "Leave the brewing to me!"

Pawa landed and said, "I'll help too. Although I'm not an expert, I can still help move some equipment and supplies."

The Shoe Angel smiled and said, "Although I'm not an expert in any of these things, I can help you move things quickly!"

Michael was overjoyed: "Then I thank the three divine beings for their help."

Metatron wanted to get to the bottom of things: "Excuse my rudeness, but may I ask why the three of you are here together?"

The Wine Angel laughed heartily: "This is our management strategy. We are all trainees, and it's impossible for one person to manage one city. It's better for three trainees to come together. That should be enough to be equivalent to one guardian deity, right? So if anything happens in the three cities, it will be our problem."

The crowd gasped in astonishment: "So you can play it like this?"

Sariel was shocked: "This is clearly exploiting a bug! The three of them can move freely between the three cities, which means they are the guardians of the three cities!"

Michael laughed, "Now is not the time to think about that. With the three of them, plus Xiao Mei, the enthusiasm of the citizens of Gem City has been fully mobilized..."

Raphael gazed at the distant Gem City, quite conflicted: "Should I go back to the city too?"

Sariel sighed, “It’s best not to go back. The Emperor’s goal is to drive us sages out of the city. If you go back, you’ll be in trouble.”

Michael: "That's right, you're helping out on Spirit Island, and we can't allow any accidents to happen now..."

……

It's 11pm now.

Under the relentless onslaught of Da Chun's eighteen public grain techniques, Maria finally let out a blissful, powerless groan.

—System notification: Congratulations! You and Maria have achieved a perfect interaction, your affinity with Maria is now "Infinite Love", and your Illusionary Charm Inheritance skill has increased your Illusionary Magic value cap by 5000. Furthermore, you have fused with Chaos Fire, gaining +500 Chaos Power and an additional 10 temporary Earth Flame Mana.

at last……

This dual cultivation resulted in a dramatic increase in attribute values! The CEO sister gained an increase in illusion magic, while Maria gained an increase in chaos power, demonstrating that being with different wives does indeed have different effects.

Da Chun, getting down to business: "My dear, my true form has successfully merged with the legacy of the legendary pirate king and is now on its way to the Golden Throne. It's time for me to make my move as well."

Maria's eyes were alluring: "I've already sent people to spread the word in Black Dragon City. Because things have been too peaceful these past few days, the Demon God Temple is dissatisfied and needs to do something. This message should have reached the Golden Throne by now. The Emperor will probably think it's just a token gesture, so go ahead and fight without worry."

Da Chun was astonished: "Darling, you mean there are Emperor's spies in Black Dragon City too?"

Maria laughed and said, "The Emperor has spies among the 72 Demon Pillars, so what's so strange about Black Dragon City having spies?"

Da Chun laughed and said, "It seems that having informants isn't necessarily a good thing. Well then, I'm off."

"Good luck, my dear."

Da Chun teleported all the way to Void Black Dragon City.

Xiao Nan, the Lizard Prophet Isaac, the Dark Elf Mining Master Buster, and the Goblin Master Dodolin are waiting at the teleportation array: "The Guild Master is here!"

Da Chun truly felt a disorienting sense of time, as if a few days apart had felt like years: "Everyone's here!"

No, Buster and the goblins were mining!
Isaac laughed and said, "Because I predicted that the leader of this operation would be the guild master, so I'm waiting."

No, does this need to be predicted?
Xiao Nan also said, "The Dragon God Temple has also prepared the main warship, the Black Dragon Marshal, for the guild leader. We will accompany the guild leader on his expedition."

Da Chun wasn't thinking about that: "Xiao Nan, the Wine Angels and the others have switched sides. I'm really worried about losing you."

Xiao Nan said irritably, "So you really want me to stay in this wretched hell?"

Forehead?
Da Chunhan said, "No, this..."

Xiao Nan said, "This operation still carries some risks. I suggest activating the Little Divine Tree to bless it."

She was referring to the seeds of the sacred tree on the seabed of Plague Island, which Nancy was tending to.
Da Chun was astonished: "So fast? You have that ability?"

Xiao Nan said, "Yes! As long as there are enough resources, the speed of a god's progress cannot be measured by the conventional timeline. Its strength may even surpass that of the father of Oak City."

"Then let's activate it."

Xiao Nan knows my account number and whether it's my main or secondary account, so talking to her is really not tiring.

Xiao Nan: "Then let's wait for news. Let's go to the Dragon God Temple first."

The group then arrived at the Dragon God Temple.

The black dragon god phantom, perched in the hall, called out, "Warrior, this operation is up to you. There are five main battleships and ten auxiliary ships in total. Try your best to show your sincerity."

Show sincerity? That's quite a sophisticated phrase. It doesn't tell me to work my ass off, or to act awkwardly. It just tells me to keep things within reasonable limits, right?
Da Chun wanted to clarify: "Will the other party cooperate?"

The Black Dragon God laughed: "It's said that since the war began and the Golden Throne implemented wartime resource control, their entire social order has become... less corrupt. The Emperor seems to enjoy this feeling; he should cooperate, right?" Holy crap, where did you get this information? Is it from the double agent Libnashi? Or are there other espionage channels?

"Understood, I will show my sincerity."

"The fleet is ready to depart at any time."

So Da Chun and his group boarded the main warship. It has to be said, its magnificent scale and sci-fi alien style completely overshadowed the Pirate God. Looking at the other dozen or so ships waiting in the naval port, the sheer size was visually striking—this was Star Wars! It was far more impressive than the two or three ships the Ten Elders had deployed back then!
The captain, along with a group of officers, greeted the ship at the boarding gate: "Welcome, brave warrior! The Black Dragon Marshal will obey your command!"

Ha, I don't know anything. Aren't you afraid that my incompetence will cause the death of the entire army?

—System notification: You have triggered the Void Black Dragon City VS Golden Throne battle event. You have gained 50 World Reputation and 50 Privilege Points. You have gained the trust and recognition of the Dragon Temple, and you have obtained the Dark Sage's class information.

Holy crap! After triggering the Iron Flame Village attack event last time, another message from the Great Sage has arrived! So many rewards before the battle even starts, how well does the Ten Elders eat normally?

Da Chun had to get serious: "Captain, you're the professional commander. My tactic is to infiltrate the Golden Throne alone and cause massive destruction, with the fleet providing cover and support. But I'm still a bit unsure about how to infiltrate. Could you offer some advice, Captain?"

The captain was filled with awe: "You truly deserve to be called a legendary warrior. Your bravery fills me with admiration. My suggestion is that our fleet launch a full-scale attack on the Golden Throne's defensive barrier, creating a massive energy surge to cover the warrior's entry."

Da Chun felt both gratified and disappointed.

I'm relieved that they share my thoughts. Disappointed, though, that they're no better than me.

Just then, Dodolin spoke up: "Guild Master, I see a barrier impact cannon on this ship. You can go inside the cannon barrel and blast yourself inside with one shot!"

Everyone was in an uproar!
A cannonball aimed at a living person? Da Chun wondered if he had misheard: "Me, a cannonball?"

Dodolin said, "Yes! But don't worry, Buster and I have brought specially made divine-grade mining explosives. The explosion control is absolutely divine-grade precision. They were specially developed for blasting rare minerals and will definitely blast you away with minimal damage!"

Da Chun almost laughed: "So that only guarantees I won't be blown to bits inside the cannon barrel. If I land at the impact point, I'll still be crushed to death, right?"

Buster said, "Don't worry, sir. There will be a secondary explosion upon impact to cushion the impact. With your strength, there will be absolutely no problem."

Holy crap, is this the confidence of a master craftsman?

The captain was intrigued: "I want to see this."

I want to too! If we could really blast our way in, the infiltration would be incredibly fast and efficient.

Da Chun made his decision: "Okay, let's go now."

The captain almost couldn't hold back: "Warrior, please~~"

Da Chun thought for a moment and said, "While I'm away, the 'Epidemic Angel' will take charge."

Xiao Nan: "Understood. I will try my best not to interfere with the fleet's decisions."

So Da Chun and his group entered the gun compartment. The artilleryman opened the gun barrel, and Buster opened the ore pack, first stuffing a large clump into the gun barrel, like stuffing a large ball of cotton into the gun barrel, and then said to Da Chun: "Chairman, push it in, this is for secondary explosion buffering."

Holy crap, is this all? Fine, this is it then!
Da Chun climbed into the cannon barrel. Buster then stuffed "cotton" all around Da Chun, so Da Chun was basically wrapped in cotton. Then Dodolin stuffed a large wad of so-called divine-grade ammunition into his feet.

Now Da Chun couldn't see anything anymore, and finally he felt the artillerymen shove a shell in.

The captain said, "Warrior, if you hear the vibration of the cannon next to you, then that cannon will also fire in 10 seconds. Prepare to fire."

"I see."

Ten seconds is enough time for me to activate all my survival skills and stealth abilities.

"The warrior, now close the gun compartment."

Da Chun almost laughed himself to tears: "Turn it off."

With a loud clang, darkness and silence descended. To be honest, Da Chun was quite impressed with them; they hadn't laughed at all the whole time?

Now it's just a matter of waiting. While you have some time, switch to your main account and take a look.

At this moment, the pirate ship carrying the large ship was drifting in a space with void above and a sea of ​​clouds below, and it did seem to be getting closer and closer to the Golden Throne. However, this direct geographical distance was indeed far less than the previous interdimensional travel.

We still need to rely on the secondary account for location. Da Chun checked the magic crystal screen and indeed there was a coordinate location option. So he selected it.

—Legendary Pirate Guardian prompts: Accurate coordinates detected. Navigate?

Da Chun glanced at the map; it was indeed the location of the smaller account. Wow, that's advanced! Of course, I'll advance too, using my clone to pinpoint the coordinates.

"navigation!"

The guardian of the magic crystal screen laughed: "Yo ho, not bad. The entire ship is entering coordinate navigation mode. We expect to arrive in 10 minutes."

10 minutes? Maybe the fight hasn't even started yet.

Da Chun asked urgently, "We don't need to go that fast, can we slow down?"

Magic Crystal Screen: "Okay, enter energy-saving and environmental protection mode."

Okay, let's switch to the alt account.

At this moment, Da Chun, pressed against the cannon barrel, heard the roar of the ship's engines; it seemed they had already set sail.

Just then—System notification: Congratulations! The Son of the Oak Tree God has joined the secret cult.

at last!

Its inclusion will officially mean that Plague Island has also been formally incorporated into the Green Channel network!

Half an hour later, Da Chun could hear the booming of cannons coming from all around. Had the war started?
Da Chun was both excited and nervous.

Finally, a tremendous roar shook the area beside the cannon barrel—the battle had begun!

The Great Spring Divine Realm is fully activated, invisibility is enabled, and the newly learned Chaos Shield is activated! The Earth Lotus's vine root shield is activated!
10！9！8……3，2，1！

Boom! With a loud bang, Da Chun's screen trembled, and his health bar was halved! He was engulfed in flames and sent flying like a rocket.

Holy crap, is this what the goblins meant by "no damage"?
Before I could think any further, another explosion occurred above my head – this is what they call a buffer!

"Earth Lotus, transform into vines!"

"Received, Father!"

With a deafening roar, Da Chun's screen began to spin wildly, filled with smoke! Alarms blared throughout the city.

Di Lian: "Father, we have successfully infiltrated the underground!"

As expected of Di Lian, she can handle situations that I have absolutely no chance of managing!

"Full speed to the sewers!"

"Roger that!"
