The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 243 The Grand Mistress's Movements
Thinking of this, Elian's expression grew even more serious, his face clouded with worry.

Currently, the only things that give him hope are two facts:
1. The Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eyes, clearly retains her original obsession and capriciousness, and shows no signs of being completely controlled by any power.

Even if the Mind Flayer's ship did visit the sixth level of the Abyss and rewrite history, it should only have presented a token bearing the aura of an Outer God, thus having a limited influence on the Beholder God, rather than completely controlling him.

2. The mysterious person possessing the High Priestess, who is suspected to be her collaborator, clearly does not want to see this capricious deity cause trouble and start a war with the allied forces.

"We must return to Eldoron immediately and confirm whether the God of the Eyes intends to harm Eldoron!"

El-Erian said seriously.

“As you wish!” said the dragon vein sorcerer Grete.

Elion, leading a group of Eldoran spellcasters, was preparing to return to Eldoran when he saw:
The silver dragon, Lady Frost, who had already transformed into human form, also came up and stood close to Grete, so close that the dragon-blooded youth felt a little uncomfortable.

This lady, dressed in a gorgeous silver winter coat, spoke with righteous indignation:

“I’ll go back with you.”

"You are our comrades-in-arms who fought alongside us, and I cannot leave you in danger without doing anything about it!"

"This operation is not yet complete. Those so-called God of the Eyes and Eye Demons are monsters that flew out of the abyss rift. According to the agreement, they are our common enemy!"

Although he said that, the silver dragon was thinking something else entirely—

What are those ugly, big eyes trying to do to cute humans?!

Seeing the ancient silver dragon Frost so serious, the dwarf high priest Bagg stepped forward as well, patting his firm chest and saying:
"Ms. Frost is right."

"Whether they are demons of the abyss or evil gods of the abyss, they are all our common enemies! They are the evil beings that the supreme [Hammer of the Mountains] Moradin abhors."

"We'll go back to Eldoron with you."

"If that evil god of the abyss intends to harm your Eldoron, our dwarven warriors will also lend their strength and help in the battle!"

When it comes to loyalty, dwarves absolutely cannot lose to dragons!

Seymour and Elf exchanged a glance.

Why does it feel like our tasks have suddenly increased?

I thought that everything would be fine after defeating the three demon legions.

Unexpectedly, the potential enemy now includes an abyssal evil god!
Before the two could speak, Princess Leah had already stepped forward:

"Lady Silver Dragon Frost is right. Resisting the potential threat from this Abyss God should also be part of this operation."

"Thank you for saving us Sun Elf refugees."

"Now that Eldoron may be facing a crisis, we elves should follow suit!"

The dwarf mage Duncan Flashstone stepped back slightly, trembling inwardly.

But now that things have come to this, it's impossible to avoid the issue:

"Uh, I'll go along with a few other dwarf mages and see what's going on..."

Elion smiled with satisfaction as he saw the people of all races united.
"Alright, let's teleport back to the western war zone of Eldoron and welcome this evil god of the abyss."

Unlike the hasty battle just now, returning to Eldoron would be like fighting on home ground, which would be much more advantageous for our side!
Seeing that everyone looked a little nervous, Elian reassured them:
"However, don't worry, a direct conflict is unlikely."

Elion left dozens of golems, demon captives controlled by the contract, and a number of people in place to guard the abyssal rift, while continuing the work of building the teleportation array.

The allied forces either set up a remote teleportation ceremony or boarded airships, activated the teleportation engines, and rushed to Eldoron.

……

The Great Matriarch, the goddess of bewitching demons, incarnate, flew through the blue sky with about a hundred bewitching demons.

This evil god, who dwells in the abyss year-round and rarely sends out incarnations, observes this world with great interest.

Blue sky and white clouds, mountains and rivers, green grass and trees on the earth, and a demon hunting wild deer in the wilderness.

Everything was so new.

It seems that in order to see this world a little longer, she chose to fly instead of using more convenient methods such as teleportation.

A few hours later.

Eldorlon Western Theater Command.

"Detected, the Eye Demon Legion is 1800 meters above us." Elion stood among the undead legion, looking up at the Eye Demons that looked like tiny black dots in the blue sky, waiting solemnly.

A large number of spellcasters gathered here, with golems standing in front, skeleton archers holding bows and arrows, and many dwarves and elves also looking solemn, ready to fight at any moment.

As they watched, the large group of eye demons in the air drew ever closer, flying right above their heads.

"No signs have been found that the Eye Demon Legion has stopped flying or launched an attack."

"The Eye Demon Legion is passing through the airspace normally..."

The large group of eye demons completely ignored the fortifications below, such as bunkers, towers, and moats, as well as the squads of skeleton soldiers wielding bows and arrows.

They just kept flying, heading further east.

"What exactly are these bewitching demons trying to do?" Elion frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

Just then, the Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eyes, suddenly stopped flying and hovered in the air.

The other eye demons also stopped one after another.

Below, the allied forces were on tenterhooks.

"Alright, alright, Your Majesty, the embodiment of the Nightmare."

"Let's head straight to our destination."

The sacred and solemn voice of the Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eyes, rang out once more.

The High Priestess understood immediately, opened her gaping maw, and began chanting eerie incantations in the language of the Abyss.

—This god of the eye possesses the highest divine authority [magic], and is himself a powerful spellcaster!
Perhaps it is because the God of the Eyes possesses the symbolism of [magic] that the Eyes race he created is a natural magical being, with all its characteristics exhibiting significant magical attributes—including different magical rays such as petrification, paralysis, and mind control emitted from each eye socket, as well as the [anti-magic field] released by the central main eye.

As the High Priestess began chanting incantations, the space around her gradually began to distort.

"A legendary-level large-scale teleportation spell?"

"A teleportation spell that can carry so many creatures at once without the aid of a vehicle is extremely rare. No wonder it belongs to a being with the divine authority of [Magic]."

Where are they going?

Elian looked up at the sky, his tense mood easing slightly, but more doubts arose.

In the original history, the Great Matriarch, the Goddess of the Eye Demon, did not send any incarnations to the continent at this time.

What exactly is the goal of this bewitching god who has seemingly sided with the Outer Gods?
As the chanting ended, a storm appeared high in the sky, with shimmering whirlwind turbines spinning across the heavens.

As the swirling vortex of light vanished with a whoosh, the Great Matriarch of the Eye Demon Goddess and the hundreds of Eye Demons surrounding her all disappeared.

The allied forces below finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, it seems they didn't launch an attack."

Without hesitation, Elion used the [Soaring Through the Skies] spell he had already cast to take to the air and fly to the place where the spatial vortex disappeared.

He stretched out his right hand toward the spot where the eye demons had disappeared and whispered a spell.

——【Detect Teleportation】!
This unorthodox divination spell can pinpoint the destination of a teleportation for a period of time after it has occurred.

"The destination of the teleportation is..."

"Eldorlon is further east, on the coast of the continent's edge."

"It faces the continent where the dragons live across the sea."

"When we conquered the Emerald Mountains, it seems the Blood Wolf Clan orcs also fled there!"

"There are only a few goblins, kobolds, and orcs living there; it's practically uninhabited. What are they doing there?"

El-Erian fell into thought and landed back on the ground.

Just then, the Archmage of Prophecy, Cassandra, rushed over, her eyes behind her glasses revealing panic:

"Your Majesty El-Erian!"

"Just now, in the southern part of the Emerald Mountains, Hudson, that eccentric man who believes in the stars, suddenly made a move!"
