Man on the ark, forced to become king

Laurentina, who was usually very eloquent, was taken aback by these words and asked in confusion, "The tip of the iceberg? Isn't that scary enough?"

In her mind, there is a limit to the strength of an individual. This is also the idea that Agor admires. Apart from special forces like the Deep Sea Hunters, Agor's army basically relies on technology to arm itself and demonstrates its strength through the collective.

Against an army armed with high-tech weapons, the destructive power that a single individual can exert is quite limited. Even the mighty Poseidon died under the collective attack of the deep-sea hunters.

The power displayed by the magical moon right now was, in her opinion, almost the same as that of the sea god they had encountered. If this was not the limit, then what was?

She had no concept of this and could not even imagine it.

"Terrible? You haven't seen a real big scene."

Warfarin crossed her arms and looked at Laurentina with a strange sense of superiority.

She had heard Kal'tsit briefly mention some things about Agor. It was said that these creatures hidden in the deep sea were arrogant and thought their technology was the strongest, looking down on the countries on land. But now it seemed they were nothing special.

Is that surprising or scary?

If a truly grand scene were presented to them, wouldn't they be utterly astonished?

Although she had never witnessed Lin Lu personally taking action, she had read the records in the Golden Tree!

In terms of knowledge, she has completely surpassed this ignorant Agorian!

"If it weren't for the residents of Saltwind City, do you think Boss Lin would use such a minor spell?"

"He is the leader of the Golden Tree, a being at the very top of the world. With his full power, he can wipe this city off the face of the earth, leaving not a trace."

"What you've seen is nothing compared to what we have at Golden Tree. There are countless people who can do it."

"This... wipes the city off the face of the earth? What is that...?"

Laurentina's pupils dilated slightly, and she was completely shocked.

That kind of description should be from a mythological story, right?

Perhaps Agor's most powerful forbidden weapon could also achieve that, but that was the ultimate weapon created by combining the power of the entire nation of Agor. When did it become a matter of comparing it to the power of an individual?

Doesn't that mean this man can stand on equal footing with Agor on his own?

How is that possible?

What exactly is the Golden Tree, this terrifying organization?

What a terrifying army it would be if there were so many people who could use the kind of magic they were using!

For a moment, she felt as if her homeland had been overshadowed.

After the initial shock, she began to wonder if this exaggerated claim was a hoax.

Judging from the composition of Skadi's squad, it should just be a temporary team dispatched to carry out a certain mission, right?

If Lin Lu is really that strong, and the Golden Tree is really that terrifying, then why would such extraordinary figures respond to a field team's request for assistance so quickly? Shouldn't they have sent someone else?

She immediately raised her question.

"This...is it because our boss is more active?"

Warfarin didn't quite understand why Lin Lu would appear so quickly after receiving their plea for help. The problems in Saltwind City didn't really require the strongest member of the Golden Tree to personally intervene. Unable to figure it out, that was the only answer she could give.

"What kind of organization do you think the Golden Tree is? How large is our sphere of influence? The Golden Tree has many powerful members, but they all have their own things to do. Especially now, we are in a state of preparation for war, and only the leader has enough free time to make a timely move."

"The situation in Saltwind City is a major concern. The leader attaches great importance to this place, which is why he has taken action personally."

“Your vision is too narrow, Agor. You are completely incapable of understanding what true power is.”

Kal'tsit, who had been silent until now, gave an explanation, which startled Warfarin, who turned her head sharply to look at her. Her eyes seemed to say: Kal'tsit, what are you doing? You weren't like this before!

"How much do you really know about Agor?"

Laurentina was a little unconvinced, but she couldn't come up with a strong rebuttal. She could only stubbornly retort before turning her head away, refusing to look at this landman who had a deep prejudice against Agor.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud crashing sound came from the top of the cave, drawing everyone's attention.

Unbeknownst to them, the bright moon had swelled to the point of almost filling half of the cave, crushing the monster that had devoured the bishop into mangled pieces of flesh. Like a real moon, it rose slowly, forcibly pushing aside the hard rock wall at the top of the cave and floating upwards.

The moon is getting bigger, and the hard rocks are being squeezed and torn apart like cotton, dissolving into straight channels.

In Laurentina's dazed gaze, the expanding magical moon floated straight out of the cave, allowing her to see the city buildings and the sky outside.

Tens of meters? Or hundreds of meters?

The moon, emerging from the cave, expanded rapidly as if it had broken free of its restraints, becoming like a real celestial body suspended in the air. Its suffocating pressure was overwhelming, making even the most experienced deep-sea hunters feel breathless.

It was as if the moon had actually fallen from the sky; just by looking at it, one could feel an indescribable pressure.

'Oh no, it seems like we've gone too far...'

Unbeknownst to them, Lin Lu, who was still inside the cave, was floating upwards with the moon, her lips twitching slightly and her arm controlling the spell trembling slightly.

Experience has shown that it's best not to make any dangerous changes to spells you're not familiar with. Otherwise, even the slightest mistake can trigger a chain reaction, causing the entire spell structure to become unstable and spiral out of control.

The full moon spell, which had expanded to tens of meters in size, was now showing signs of getting out of control. He had to keep filling it with energy to maintain the stability of the structure. However, if the spell continued to expand without limit, it would eventually reach a point where he could no longer control it. At that time, he feared that most of Saltwind City would be razed to the ground by the erupting full moon.

In other battlefields, it would be fine to just throw out the spells and be done with it, like in the case of Yumen Pass, where the goal is to kill the enemy anyway, so the stability of the spells doesn't matter.

But this is inside a city with tens of thousands of residents. He didn't come to destroy Saltwind City. If he casts this spell, wouldn't all the residents of the city be sent to their deaths?

If he had used a spell he was good at, such as Dragon Prayer or Origin Magic, he wouldn't have made such a basic mistake. It's just that he hasn't used Full Moon spells much before.

However, although the spell failed, there is still a way to fix it.

Lin Lu wasn't too flustered; he had another very useful solution—call for backup!

If Kal'tsit and the others can call for reinforcements, then he certainly can too.

Since I'm about to lose control of this spell, let someone who can control it take over!

Then, beneath the rising full moon, a golden mist rose, and a bright red appeared in the glow. Lani suddenly appeared under the moon, blinking slightly in confusion. She was wearing an apron and holding a spatula with half a vegetable leaf in her hand.

"what?"

Lani, who had just appeared, looked down at the dilapidated city below, then looked up at the ever-growing full moon, and asked in confusion, her big eyes filled with deep bewilderment.

What's going on?

She was learning how to cook at home from Madam Wenyue, so how did she get suddenly pulled over here?

"Don't say anything, hurry up and help me, I can't handle this thing!"

Lin Lu pointed with her chin to the still-expanding full moon above her head, her forehead slightly sweaty.

"...You always like to make these dangerous attempts. You're clearly not good at using this kind of magic, yet you still modify it haphazardly."

Lani took a second to think, then understood the current situation and couldn't help but sigh.

It's true that old habits die hard. Back in the border region, he liked to do unconventional and unorthodox things, and now that he's in the new world, he's still the same.

They say you learn from your mistakes, so why does this person seem to forget the lessons learned?

Have you forgotten how many times you've failed before?

Could it be that, like this spell, it's become arrogant...?

"Who is that?"

Laurentina, who was looking up at the sky from inside the cave, also saw the red-haired girl who suddenly appeared in the sky. She patted Skadi's arm and asked in a low voice.

"She is the leader's wife and one of the strongest members of the Golden Tree."

Warfarin answered the question for Skadi, but she was also a little puzzled as to why they needed to bring someone over at this time. Did their leader not have the strength to solve the Saltwind City problem?

That's impossible. With that big thing on its head, what problem couldn't be solved by smashing it down?

Or……

After thinking it over, she clenched her fist and slammed it into her palm, analyzing, "Boss Lin must have a deeper meaning behind doing this!"

"A powerful figure from the Golden Tree?"

Upon hearing Warfarin's words, Laurentina immediately agreed.

Such important figures certainly have their own ideas, and it's normal that they lack the power to understand them.

Although that powerful person's attire was a bit... hard to explain, powerful people always have some unique characteristics.

I wonder just how powerful the leader's wife, who suddenly appeared, is?

Her question was quickly answered.

Although the red-haired girl gently raised her arm in the sky, the sky over Saltwind City changed.

The dark clouds that had covered the sky vanished instantly, replaced by a dazzling night sky filled with twinkling stars.

As night fell, a large, dark moon, occupying most of the sky, slowly rose.

Chapter 241 The Dark Moon Descends

Terra has two moons. Every night, the two bright moons, one large and one small, hang high in the sky, casting a little light on the earth.

It is said that a long, long time ago, in the distant past, there was only one moon in the sky, and the other one appeared later.

Legend has it that it was a creation of the gods.

However, whether there is one moon or two, they all share a common characteristic—they are extremely far from the Earth, so far that from the ground, they can only be seen as shadows the size of a fist.
