Retired God King becomes Witch Idol Manager

Yero's weak voice said that the teacher was obviously referring to Blington and Lula, and that the free people would not forgive any dragon.

A shooting star streaked across the sky, its furious spirit hurtling towards the Moonstone Dragon Mother with overwhelming force.

Lula's gaze was mocking, not at all surprised. She opened her mouth and exhaled, and fine dragon flames wove into a wall of fire to block their path.

The starlight folded and drifted several times, and the swift figure was sometimes illusory and sometimes solid. With a wonderful spatial martial arts technique, he passed through the Moonfire defense line and wielded a long-handled weapon to strike the dragon's head!

The opponent was exceptionally strong, and his distinctive style made him easily identifiable among the twelve constellation envoys; however, in the chaos, no one had time to stop him.

Just as the blade struck, it suddenly stopped, as if recognizing something. The starlight faded, and a slender man gradually appeared, breaking free from the phase shift.

"Cancer Star Envoy Audrey, please don't misunderstand, we have to act together for certain reasons."

Curtis's explanation was superfluous; the Rainbow Archbishop and the Lightbringer were both familiar faces. Audrey nodded, hummed in agreement, and bowed slightly to the most eye-catching silver-haired girl among them as a sign of respect.

Cancer Star, with his reddish-brown skin and long, pointed ears, is a high elf from the Flame Court. He wears a tight-fitting warrior's robe, covers half his face, and has long, fiery red hair that is as messy as seaweed. The magical weapons in his hands are strangely shaped, with a spiked hammer at one end and a pincer-shaped axe at the other. His calm gaze is filled with hostility towards the dragon race.

Nolan smiled and returned the greeting. He didn't recognize the other person, but since the Star Festival, the whole world had witnessed the rise of the witch, so he wasn't surprised.

789. Great Hero, Great Star

Audrey was not good with words and didn't waste any time. After raising her hand to point out the direction of the sanctuary to everyone, her figure gradually disappeared and she once again vanished into the phase.

The magic crystal turrets inside and outside the sanctuary retracted, and the gates of the war zone were opened to welcome allies. However, the free people in the settlement inevitably felt hostility and rejection when they looked up and saw the dragon's figure.

The starlight guided the Templars into the realm of stars, the purple star map rose again, and the Sanctuary's defenses were impenetrable.

Unlike the fear the Dark Empire instilled in the Moonstone Dragon Mother, the Free Federation was not enough to frighten Lula. Her massive figure landed directly in the center of the war zone, attracting many wary glances.

"That's... Lord Nolan? My God!"

"It can't be wrong!"

But when the citizens of the Federation discovered the Witch of Chaos, their anger instantly turned into excitement and fanaticism, gradually causing a disturbance that escalated and spread throughout the fortress.

The Star Realm has been stationed at the Ark for a long time, possessing complete facilities and magic crystal infrastructure that other forces do not have. It is more like a self-sufficient core city. What truly alarmed Selimoni was the numerous powerful fluctuations within it. There were no fewer than dozens of Saint-level lords, the weakest of whom was comparable to Yero, while the strongest was on par with Audreide.

Almost all of the world's top experts have descended upon the Ark...

Nolan greatly underestimated the enthusiasm of the free people. The legion soldiers completely ignored Lula and rushed forward to crowd the witch in the middle of the square, eager for autographs and photos with her using magic, treating her like a superstar.

Lockrean and the others were also intimidated by the sheer number of people pushing them aside, making it impossible for them to intervene. Compared to the Holy Alliance, the Free Federation was more like the home of the Joestar sisters.

"Make way! Make way! Don't frighten our great hero!"

A familiar shout came from the sky. Nolan paused, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up.

The unicorn's cheerful hooting carried the Sagittarius Star Envoy past, pulling the torn witch to safety and rescuing her beloved sister from the center of the vortex.

The leader, dressed in a dashing light helmet and pure white cloak, was so dashing that even Nolan almost didn't recognize her. She had cut her hair short, and her charming face was flushed with joy, but her mature and sophisticated demeanor remained undiminished.

Alicia hugged Nolan tightly and couldn't let go. She pounced on the girl's cheek and kissed her, then rubbed against her, sniffing her sister's familiar scent like a puppy, annoyed and complaining.

"Why have you been gone for so long? I thought you, like Lady Vivian, had paid a heavy price to save us!"

"The cost was indeed considerable."

Nolan shrank his neck, giggling from the tickling sensation. For just one day, he would let his sister-obsessed brother do as he pleased.

"I heard you came back a long time ago, why are you only coming to see me now?"

"Who said I came here to see you?"

Alicia puffed out her cheeks, distorting Nolan's delicate face, and listened to the cheers of the warriors below, her gloomy mood vanished.

With the Chaos Knight around, even the savage beast hordes and Imperial Dragon Riders don't seem so scary anymore.

"Come on, I'll take you to see the Commander-in-Chief of the Star Cluster first. Your timing is perfect; now we're even more confident in seizing the Ark."

"Star Cluster Commander?"

Nolan glanced back, and Lin and Lockrean immediately understood, following the unicorn as it flew toward the Sanctuary Tower.

Lula, in human form, leaned against the edge of the city wall; she certainly didn't have the guts to run away. Blington, meanwhile, rode his little angel around aimlessly, showing no interest in anything other than his daughter.

"The Star Chapter is a special force of the Federation in the outer regions, independent of the Wings of Freedom Legion, and is under the full command of Capricorn Star Envoy. Since the Obsidian Empire has made public the coordinates of the High Plane, the Ark has become the Star Chapter's highest priority target, and Lord Vessalius is personally in charge."

Therefore, besides Cancer Star Envoy Audrey, the other extraordinary level of soul energy fluctuation is Capricorn Star Envoy.

"Praise the stars!"

Alicia stopped at the entrance of the Watcher's Tower, already accustomed to her identity as an Apostle of the Stars. The excited servants on both sides also bowed to the Sagittarius Star Envoy and the Witch of Chaos.

"Teacher Lin, I'm relieved to see that you're safe and sound."

Alicia patted the unicorn, which flapped its wings and flew away happily, feeling uncomfortable being near Nolan.

The Lightbringer smiled and nodded. One of Saint Lenza's most outstanding students was now more famous than many of the Star Lords. The mechanical sword armor made by the Sandalwood King had also greatly increased the strength of the Sagittarius Star Envoy.

Seeing her companions from the Holy Alliance, Alicia's expression became somewhat unnatural again, even though they had helped the Water Spirit Court repel the dragon tide.

"Your Highness, Archbishop Celimoni, you still have the mood to travel around? It seems that homeland truly has no value to the Holy Alliance!"

Lockrena shook his head with a wry smile, and Selene was also speechless. If Marshal Roland were still alive, the situation wouldn't be so embarrassing.

Alicia glared at Nolan and strode into the sanctuary, clearly not wanting to pay any attention to the Septian Church, and even less wanting to see her sister getting too close to them.

As soon as they entered the hall meeting room, an elderly man dressed in simple clothes came out to greet them. He was leaning on a cross-shaped scepter and walked with a limp. They thought he was just an ordinary servant of the gods, but Selene and Lin immediately bowed their heads respectfully.

“What an unexpected guest, Miss Nolan. Please forgive Audrey and me for our rudeness. Lightbringer, Archbishop and His Highness the Holy Son, you may not know much about the Ark. There is some kind of alien here. Whoever it is, we must be on guard.”

The old man had a kind face and a gentle demeanor, and he was the first to apologize.

Everyone nodded blankly, indicating their understanding. Evil spirits are ubiquitous, and even brothers and sisters would probably find it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Alicia didn't interrupt, but silently walked behind the old man. It was only then that Yero and Panini realized that the old man with a weak breath in front of them was the Star Cluster Commander.

"What's going on? Isn't Lord Vessalius a famous handsome man in the Federation? Even if it's news from ten years ago, it shouldn't be like this."

"Why do I feel like this is news from thirty years ago?"

Panini and Hiero jumped onto Curtis's tall shoulders, whispering to each other as they lay on her back, their dreams shattered.

Curtis grabbed the two little girls by the collar and said irritably, "Lord Vesalius is the most special class in the world, a unique time traveler. Time flows endlessly within him. He was already the head of the Zodiac Star Envoys before I was born. Like Miss Nolan, he is a representative chosen by divine grace and can borrow the power of the Eternal Time Dragon."

"Wow!"

Panini was taken aback. Wasn't that an old relic like His Holiness the Pope?

Becoming a chosen one is the highest honor for a believer. A witch as young as her possesses world-destroying power, which naturally means that her pure faith has earned the recognition of the destroyers of all realms, thus elevating her to the position of Chaos God Envoy.

At least that's what other people think.

790. A devastating blow

Selene frowned and glanced at the two impolite young apostles, then said in a low voice, "To my shame, we have already witnessed the horrors of the ghosts. Fortunately, we did not suffer too much damage, thanks to... um, Miss Nolan."

Archbishop Rainbow wanted to say "Mr. Blington," but if the Star Cluster Necromancers knew they had brought in an Obsidian Dragon King, they would be furious even if they weren't kicked out.

"I see. It's a miracle you all made it to the Sanctuary alive!"

The old man was somewhat surprised. He pointed to the sand table map in the center of the conference room. Most of the development area around the basin was shrouded in mist. To the west was a lion's head, and to the north was a dragon's head. Several places marked with red battle flags indicated dangerous areas.

Locke Ryan squinted and quickly memorized the three-way layout. Capricorn Envoy smiled knowingly and suddenly looked out the window. There, a black-haired boy was riding on the back of a winged girl and shouting. The chain was attached to Saint Victoria.

"You seem to have brought two ominous guests, which is a bit troubling."

As a formidable rival of Lion King Antonio and Emperor Harrison, how could Vessalius not recognize the Obsidian Dragon King? He could see the traces of time passing in his eyes, traces that were particularly strong and obvious on high-level creatures like the Gem Dragon Clan.

"One of them is my spoils of war, and the other is an enthusiastic guide from the Empire. He is honest, at least for now."

"What!?"

Nolan touched his nose, feeling a little guilty under Alicia's big eyes. The older sister simply couldn't believe that her younger sister had not only allied herself with the hateful vampires of the Church, but had also brought two terrifying enemies with her.

The Capricorn Star Envoy raised his hand to invite everyone to sit down, and with just a flick of his finger, steaming hot coffee appeared in several empty cups—unbelievable.

“I’m not worried about what harm the two dragons can cause. It’s just that the situation on the Ark is getting more and more complicated. As far as I know, the Temple of Love and Wisdom and the Temple of Destiny have successfully moved into the Ark and their stance is unclear.”

The old man appeared relaxed, but his tone was quite arrogant, considering that those were two Dragon King-level powerhouses, one of which was an Imperial Monster.

"The Obsidian Empire is not a major threat at the moment. The Dragon Rider Legions are divided into factions and vying for the throne, while the Obsidian Emperor is nowhere to be found."

Selene and Lockrean exchanged a glance and explained, "We are here representing the Iron Dragon Knights. If it's inconvenient for you, you can leave."

Vessalius paused, seemingly surprised by the Holy Son's adventurous spirit, which left the Revolutionary Army with no room for error.

"That's not necessarily the case. The dangers of the alternate dimension don't just come from the pioneers; it's hard to say whether they're friend or foe. The Ice Blade Dragon Riders have allied with the Polar Snowfield, and the Vicious Dragon Riders might seek help from the Abyss Demons. According to His Highness the Holy Son, the Steel Dragon Riders are on the same side as the Revolutionary Army, and the Molten Dragon Riders' movements are currently unclear. Among them, the Cataclysmic Dragon Riders are the ones we need to be most wary of!"

"Pompey?"

Curtis looked thoughtful, not impressed by the cunning and treacherous dragon hunters. The five commanders of the Imperial Dragon Riders were indeed less stressed because they operated independently, but the Cataclysmic Dragon Riders were the weakest of them all, even weaker than the five major faith kingdoms.

"Lord Reinhardt has received reliable intelligence that the alchemists of the Cataclysmic Dragon Riders are assisting the Valley of Splendor in creating the Aberrant Dragon Beasts, with the aim of using these monsters to seize the imperial throne. Now, the Lion Star Envoy is leading the Dragon Slayer Legion to the Ark, intending to annihilate them all in one fell swoop."

Mentioning the Valley of Splendor and Neptune's Throne, the old man's face darkened. The Star Festival had caused the Federation heavy losses, and the Libra Star Envoy had fallen into a long slumber as a result.

"What!?"

Everyone was shocked by this secret, and Alicia was equally astonished. She had never heard of it beforehand, so why would the Capricorn Star Envoy tell a group of people with ambiguous stances?

Nolan was the only one in the meeting room who could remain calm. She frowned, seemingly deep in thought. Bai Lu had undoubtedly already passed on the truth through covert means.

This was all pre-planned by the two of them, so there was nothing unexpected about it. Their purpose was to create chaos and lure everyone into a trap.

Locke Ryan squinted, tapping his index finger lightly on the table, keenly catching some information.

"Thank you for your trust. The Dragon Tide is a common enemy of the Lawful Light faction, but what would you like us to do?"

Vessalius smiled. Of course, he deliberately revealed such important information to those who were interested. They were finally able to take the initiative in the dragon-slaying war, and they certainly couldn't miss the opportunity.

Therefore, the Sanctuary of Stars needs to gather all allies who can fight alongside them, even the Imperial Dragon Riders and the Savage Beasts are not as hateful as the Dragon Clan.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. General Caliban should hate this despicable brother more than the Free People, shouldn't he?"

"I understand."

His Highness understood immediately, his spirits lifted, and he silently rose and left the meeting room with the Archbishop.

This is exactly the opportunity the Revolutionary Army has been seeking: to use the conflict with the evil dragon to return to the Order of Light, and to join forces with the future leader of the Empire to rebuild the Holy Alliance. They are only one step away from here!
