Dragon Tribulation of All Realms

Chapter 358

Mary left in a hurry.

Wu Chen leaned back in the soft chair and began to think.

The inference has been verified as true; there is indeed some powerful force of interference hidden behind this world. And the fact that Rajsis was able to kill his own disciples and then rashly bring them to visit Lysas must have been driven by important reasons.

--destiny.

Fate cursed Millie. Fate also changed Lance. A powerful local deity will be the mastermind behind it all. And there can only be one reason why He would act this way.

—To make the world less boring.

The gods are busy for only one reason, and that is to satisfy the viewing pleasure of the creator, the Void Whale. And for all the enthusiastic viewers, the worst thing is that someone spoils the specific plot changes before the show even begins.

—It is a projection from another world.

The appearance of the Hero Britannia in the interdimensional projection suggests that the projection's origin is very likely another world, Lance. Since projections can originate from any point in time, it's possible that a projection medium, already in the later stages of history and carrying the storylines of Lance's first ten volumes, has appeared in this world.

There may not be as many as one to ten.

But the fate of the world has most likely been spoiled. As a result, the originally intriguing story might have lost some of its appeal in the eyes of the Creator. However, this doesn't mean the white whale didn't like this ending.

In the ending of Lance X, the white whale finds satisfaction. It steps down from its seats and enters the stage to play. But assuming it already knew the specific spoilers, perhaps its expectation wasn't simply to completely reject the script.

—So that's how it is. The ending was satisfying, but the process needed a slight adjustment. Just like a game you've already completed always needs some new twists on a second playthrough. And Lance's gender change was the invisible push of fate.

The conclusion thus came to Wu Chen. The situation was not as bad as he had anticipated. The Creator desired new tricks but also demanded that the overall trend remain unchanged. And perhaps it was precisely for this reason that Lagisis was able to successfully turn the tables and appear on the outskirts of Lysas with his apprentices.

—Because Leah disappeared.

Leia is an important character, and Lagisis's visit has a corrective effect. It will propel the plot, which was interrupted by Leia's disappearance, toward the next stage of change.

Wu Chen raised an eyebrow slightly.

He examined his reasoning and, unsurprisingly, found many inconsistencies. But having a reasoning was better than wandering aimlessly like a headless fly. At least for now, he had found a direction to address the problem.

think.

A soft touch suddenly appeared on Wu Chen's forehead.

It was Lia—she boldly stepped forward without Wu Chen stopping her from moving around freely. She reached out and awkwardly massaged his brain to relax it.

The technique wasn't great, but the effect was pretty much the same. Wu Chen pondered for a few seconds, then gave a reply.

"Do you have any idea?"

He gave Leah a chance.

The princess of Lysas then pondered for a few seconds. "That Rajsis must have some backing for his sudden visit to Lysas. He must have a powerful force supporting him, and he will certainly be influenced by that force."

“It’s not Herman, because the Free City has always been biased towards Lisas. Herman’s power would have to expend a lot of energy to reach Kastam. So the most likely force should be the Demon Realm… If Lya’s guess is correct, then this Archmage must have one, or even several, demons as his backers. And because of your reminder, the reason these demons are targeting Lisas is most likely because of Lisas’s national treasure.”

Holy shield, holy sword, and holy armor.

These three sacred weapons, combined with royal blood, can achieve a special effect.

She tentatively asked.

"You know..."

“I know what they do. You don’t need to tell me.” The three holy weapons, along with the blood of the Lysas royal family, will be able to break the ancient seal, releasing the former Demon King Jill, who will be trapped deep within another dimension, from the seal.

Of course, it wasn't just Jill who was released. The Demon Sword Chaos was also released. It was a sacred artifact transformed from one of the five heroes who accompanied Britain after meeting the three supreme gods. It was the only power capable of breaking through the Demon's invincible barrier, aside from using divine or demonic brute force.

Princess Lysas took a soft breath.

"Then, the chaos in the demon world caused by the change of the Demon King should soon be over. That's why demons have come to Lysas to seek this ancient power... Lord Dust, when Marie returns with the Holy Armor, please take it with you and leave Lysas Castle. We will try our best to delay these demons and keep your secret. And if you wish, you can take it to Jepan, and then... when the time is right, destroy the Tenma Bridge."

The Tenma Bridge is the only bridge connecting Jepan to the mainland. However, both the ocean and the sky present limitations, making it difficult for demons to easily cross these natural barriers. Therefore, even if the new Demon King adopts the same policy of breeding and extermination as Jill, humanity will still be able to preserve its existence in Jepan and, at the right time, use this hidden trump card to return to the battlefield.

"Lia will give you the blood; please use it when the time is right."

She was ready to cut herself open, even though that knife wasn't in her hands right now.

"Please be sure to bring Kanami along. She's a bit clumsy, but..."

"Didn't you ever think of resisting?" Wu Chen interrupted her. "As far as I know, the neighboring country of Seth has already repelled the demon Medusa many times."

“It’s different.” Princess Lysas gave a wry smile. “There’s too little time. There’s no time to prepare the sealing technique. Lysas has very little experience fighting demons. If we only have one or two days, our only option is to preserve our strength… because Lya knows just how powerful a demon with a clear objective can be.”

Her fingers trembled slightly, and the trepidation, unease, and determination she felt in order to protect her country were clearly visible in Wu Chen's eyes. However, Wu Chen also knew that everything he saw was merely a deception and a pretense.

She has confirmed her guess.

She wanted Wu Chen to accept the commission and contribute his strength to Lisas.

and so……

Wu Chen stretched out his hand and swept it across the table in front of him.

The next moment, an aerial view of the entire Lisas border appeared on the desktop.

“Take a look at this first,” he said. And many details on the map were subtly altered.
