Chapter 304 - 160 Kael: I Hate Those Filthy, Unsightly (10K, 45/76)_2

"So what had happened? I don’t think the eastern expeditionary Alliance would have kindly accepted..."@@novelbin@@

After lifting the fierce mask of Wandong City, what was revealed was the city’s vulnerability, and Kael would definitely trample it without hesitation if he were here.

As Kael said this, an idea involuntarily formed in his mind.

The weak have no say, they can only pray for mercy from the strong, and since they were already enemies, he would not give his foes any opportunity to exploit.

If it is possible to completely annihilate, then do so; even a false show of strength could not be maintained, only to be more ferociously targeted by enemies who had already begun their onslaught.

"You should be able to guess, Kael, the geopolitical situation of various countries at that time was not like the relatively peaceful era now. Wandong City had already fallen into a state of isolation because most of the goblin empire’s territory had been conquered.

Before this, they could still boast about their numerous armed forces and the fearless Goblin Vanguards, yet now even a group of youths’ onslaught can’t be halted.

Even the normally well-protected researchers had their heads cut off, and though we, from the perspective of later generations, can guess that there were issues back then, it was already enough reason for the Alliance to conquer Wandong City at that time."

Seemingly reminded of something, Cardinal Tetu felt an inevitable anxiety because he now sensed the advent of war while on the main road.

Kael sighed and said, "Historically, the more militarily powerful a country is, the greater the prestige it gains by arms, and at the empire’s twilight, it attracts more nations to attack.

The logic is actually very simple, everyone knows how strong the empire was at its peak, so no one wants the empire to have a chance to rise again after its collapse.

If it really were to rise again, they would be the first to be attacked, so once the war starts, the stronger you are, the harder you will be fought."

"Indeed, so upon discovering that even the last military bases couldn’t manage to effectively deploy troops, the goblin empire truly began its countdown.

Is there anything else you’d like to know? As long as it’s not too confidential, I can tell you all about it."

Cardinal Tetu’s gentle voice made it comfortable to listen to, but Kael felt somewhat awkward; he felt as if he had done nothing, yet Tetu’s approval of him had somehow increased further.

"Rest easy, child, since you are willing to share the secrets of Lancaster with the citizens of Shangtiya, and willing to share the potential burdens with the Earth Mother Goddess Church, we have no reason not to stand by your side.

Keep up the good work, I heard that you’re about to complete the second phase of the Dungeon, this must be your first time personally overseeing and completing a Dungeon conquest!

Soon you will feel why, despite the great dangers and burdens the Dungeon brings to a domain, so many lords and powers continue to invest heavily in it...

We are not mere lambs to the slaughter; each power, from establishment to growth, inevitably draws immense benefits from the Dungeon.

For Lancaster now, there’s nothing more supportive of domain development than a suitable Dungeon.

So by all means strive hard; your name has been making waves in the field of magic recently, and I can help you make connections with the current Cardinal of the Magic Goddess Church.

If you can earn a prestigious title within the Magic Goddess Church, it will benefit you in further developing your domain and attracting talents."

Kael immediately understood why Cardinal Tetu’s tone had become so gentle.

Clearly, Kael knew he couldn’t keep this from the Undead, especially since they had arrived in the region and commenced a massive battle with the numerous goblins.

Based on his understanding of the players, those who had participated in the battle were probably already on forums boasting about how they had taken down a Goblin Vanguard with a deft slide tackle!

Given the players’ inability to keep their mouths shut in-game, while he was still on his way to aid the Tulip Chamber of Commerce, the news had probably already discreetly reached the local Priest and had been relayed to Cardinal Tetu.

The native inhabitants of the continent don’t know that players can communicate with each other through forums, or even if unable to access the forums, they might choose to log out on the spot and contact each other offline.

Cardinal Tetu probably saw all of the players’ actions as implicitly permitted by Kael; the quick spread of news about new monsters appearing near the recently cleared domains had not been concealed and had reached him immediately.

So swiftly, to claim that it wasn’t intentional on Kael’s part, he wouldn’t believe.

When he talked to him earlier, saying, "The various doctrines of the Earth Mother Goddess Church have always aligned with my own principles, I believe the always virtuous Harvest Goddess will understand my difficulties," Tetu probably saw it as an overt gesture of goodwill towards the Earth Mother Goddess Church.

Moreover, before the players’ arrival, the Earth Mother Goddess Church had already notified all major powers, hoping that they would maintain a certain degree of friendliness upon encountering the citizens of Shangtiya.

Not to demand any specific treatment for them, but to ask, in the name of the Goddess, for some face saving from the Earth Mother Goddess Church as long as they did not harm others’ safety.
