In New Lanagua City, Amon eliminated all the loopholes created throughout the Duchy of South Balam.
The most direct manifestation was that the chimes at the top of the Church of the Fool returned to normal, audible only within New Lanagua City.
Amon instantly lost interest, dropped the hammer, pinched his monocle, and released a hurricane he had stolen at some unknown time.
Like a feather, he floated away lightly, and after leaving the range of the "Bell of Order," he stole the distance and disappeared from the sight of "The Creator" and "The Fool."
Derrick at the church entrance sincerely thanked "The Creator." He took a deep breath, believing he must once again suggest revising a portion of the scriptures.
Above the gray fog, Klein thought: If Amon's father was Roselle, and not the Ancient Sun God, then I could reasonably assume he was "sending me a clock."
Then, he used "True Vision" to inspect the believers in New Lanagua City, confirming that no one had been parasitized by Amon.
Just as Klein was about to divine Amon's actions, he noticed that the star representing "The Sun" Derrick had lit up at some point. He had been focused on Amon's movements and hadn't noticed it.
Extending his spirituality, Klein was slightly stunned: "Scriptures?"
So, with a wave of his hand, he summoned the scriptures that City of Silver had sacrificed to him from the pile of junk.
Previously, he had only flipped through a few pages before becoming too embarrassed to continue reading.
Of course, he wasn't careless and remained cautious enough, using divination within the "Sefirah Castle" to confirm that the scriptures wouldn't bring him any actual harm.
Klein took a deep breath and flipped through the scriptures page by page. The muscles on his face gradually twitched, and he flipped faster and faster.
Snap!
Klein slammed the Fool's scriptures shut and threw them back into the pile of junk: What I don't know and don't pay attention to, doesn't exist.
… …
Inside Alger's palace.
Hobert had someone bring him a copy of the Fool's scriptures. After reading only a few pages, a smile couldn't help but appear on his face: "Mr. Azik is actually an angel who attends to the "Fool's" daily life, often providing help to the blessed because he is always by the "Fool's" side. Hahaha, my fault, my fault, I shouldn't have given the "Fool" the "Death" card…"
"Miss Messenger? Let me take a look. Oh, so she runs errands for the Fool, hmm, that fits the facts."
"Snake of Fate"… uh, this description is a bit like the "Fool's" pet!
"And the Angel of Retribution? Ah, it's Gehrman Sparrow. He's the only angel who actually works."
"Hahaha, the funniest is the "Angel of Time," who actually rings the bell. Fortunately, it's the Church of the Fool, not Notre Dame Cathedral."
Reading further, Hobert's face gradually darkened: When did I become so obsequious before the "Fool"? I'm still an Archangel, but it's as if I'm delivering takeout. I deliver whatever the "Fool" orders.
Wait, when did "The Creator" request to form an alliance with the "Fool"?
Snap!
Hobert slammed the scriptures shut, took two deep breaths, and then opened them again to tear off the sections about "The Creator" and the "Prince of Abolition," and called Donna to personally deliver these two pages to Derrick to express his dissatisfaction.
… …
Above the gray fog, Klein, after hearing Derrick's report about Donna delivering two pages of the "scriptures," thought: That's a normal person's reaction. Amon's reaction was definitely abnormal.
He pondered for a moment, feeling that this matter should be explained to Hobert by him, the "Angel of Retribution," in person, to avoid misunderstandings.
But this wasn't the most urgent matter. He had more important things to do now.
Returning to the real world, Klein arrived at an uninhabited island on the western side of the Southern Continent. This island belonged to the Felix Islands, a territory of the Duchy of South Balam.
Because it wasn't on a major shipping route, no one had come to develop it yet. There weren't even any natives on the island.
This was an island that Hobert had helped Klein find some time ago for setting up a ritual. Klein could unleash his full potential here.
In the midst of a large forest, Klein chose an open space and prayed sincerely to himself: "I wish for a city suitable for five thousand people to live in here."
Immediately afterward, Klein raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Suddenly, this open area became extremely flat, and the surrounding forest also "receded" a lot, providing a large amount of wood, stone, and soil.
Almost simultaneously, buildings rose from the ground, their architectural style resembling that of Angers in the Duchy of South Balam.
In the next second, residential buildings, libraries, police stations, telegraph offices, city halls, small hospitals, candy factories, waterworks, parallel railways, and so on were completed one after another. The streets were paved with cement or stone bricks.
Finally, a spire church emerged from the ground, a Church of the Evernight Goddess.
"I wish for this island to have a deep-water port," Klein made his second wish to himself.
He snapped his fingers again, fulfilling his wish.
About three kilometers away from the town, a small-scale port quickly took shape, with two docks, five warehouses, a harborside hotel, and a lighthouse.
Klein admired his masterpiece and walked into the church named Saint Ariana. After a while, figures appeared, their movements initially a little awkward, but becoming smoother as they walked.
Soon, they either turned onto different streets or stopped in the square, admiring the uninteresting scenery.
After a while, rats, cockroaches, mosquitoes, and other creatures crawled or flew out from inside.
Finally, a flock of white doves flew out and landed in the center of the square.
Everyone seemed to suddenly come to life completely. Some teased the doves, some played the zither, and some chatted with friends with smiles on their faces.
At this time, the local mayor wrote the name of the city on a wooden sign in front of the city hall: Utopia.
… …
On the avenue in the suburbs of Cevas, the capital of the Balam Empire.
A deserted dirt road suddenly became illusory. When the illusion disappeared, a convoy of more than a dozen brand-new trams suddenly appeared on the road.
In the middle of the convoy, Audrey, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Duchy of South Balam, looked through the car window at the dilapidated city not far away, and was immediately disappointed in this empire that had existed for more than a thousand years.
In fact, after the fall of the "Underworld Emperor," the forces of the Northern Continent basically had no impact on the Southern Continent because the Berserk Sea had formed, so the Balam Empire supported itself for a period of time.
However, with the rise of the Highland Kingdom in the Star Highlands, the kingdom without the protection of the gods was given a final blow.
Then, the fertile Paz River Valley and the resource-rich and vast Agate region successively became independent, which later became the Paz Kingdom and Agate State.
At this time, Balam still called itself an empire, but whether it was territory or population, it was similar to the other three kingdoms.
Fortunately, the "Chained God" soon sealed himself to avoid the "Mother Tree of Desire," giving the Balam Empire a chance to breathe.
Later, Si Er became the leader of the "Rose School of Thought," and the "Pale Empress" happened to be promoted in time, so the Balam Empire did not fully perish.
This chaotic situation continued until the arrival of the colonial era more than a hundred years ago. Loen and Intis first joined forces to destroy the Paz Kingdom, which had fertile land.
Then, they wantonly occupied the territories of the Balam Empire and the Highland Kingdom, and divided the Southern Continent into East Balam and West Balam according to the wishes of the people of the Northern Continent.
The Agate State still has a royal court, but it has completely become a puppet of the Loen people, and the nobles of this kingdom have become agents of the colonizers at all levels.
Under the attack of the colonizers, the Balam Empire and the Highland Kingdom were left with only a small piece of territory that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, struggling to survive.
Now, the Northern Continent has just finished a world war, and the extraordinary power has been severely weakened. The Balam Empire, which has not participated in the war, has gradually become the object of wooing by various countries in the Northern Continent.
They need this dying empire to help them block the rising Duchy of South Balam, so as to give the countries of the Northern Continent a chance to breathe.
It happened that Hobert was also in a stage of forbearance at this time, and completely ignored the Balam Empire's unwarranted provocations, and sent Audrey to the capital of the Balam Empire to conclude a peace treaty.
This made the Balam Empire feel that it was okay again, and the letter of credence sent to Hobert was also written very arrogantly.
Although there was a translation in Loen, Hobert pretended not to understand it and continued to implement his appeasement foreign policy.
Because at this time, he was already making the final preparations for the war, and of course he would not destroy Medici's battle plan because of this.
Outside of Cevas, Santos, the Prime Minister of the Balam Empire, who had received prior notice, was already waiting at the city gate to welcome the special envoy from the Southern Balam Duchy.
An empire and a duchy are not countries of the same level. However, while the Balam Empire was arrogant, it would not ignore the strength displayed by the Southern Balam Duchy, so they tacitly agreed to receive the special envoy as if they were from a country of the same level.
When Santos saw the neat row of trams arriving, as a Beyonder, he was initially shocked. For a moment, he didn't even know if this was advanced technology or some kind of mystical item?
The tram stopped in front of him, and Audrey, dressed in a Southern Balam-style long dress and wearing a veiled hat, stepped out, making Santos feel even more inferior.
Southern Balam-style clothing is mainly based on the Loen style, but also incorporates the characteristics of clothing from Eastern and Western Bayam and parts of the Star Highlands. It is not only beautiful and elegant, but also removes the cumbersome elements of Loen noble attire, making it very practical.
The clothing worn by Santos, a nobleman, was also simple in style and had almost no embroidery, making it look very monotonous.
In addition, the industrial systems of the two countries were also vastly different. Most of the embroidery on Audrey's clothes was done with the most exquisite embroidery machines currently available, and the fabrics were excellent and the dyes were vibrant.
The fabrics of the Balam Empire were all local homespun cloth. The fabric for Santos's clothes was bought after being dyed in the Northern Continent, but the workmanship was far inferior to Audrey's clothes.
Of course, there was also a very crucial reason: Audrey's beauty and generosity made Santos feel a little uneasy. He felt that speaking in Bayamese would be offensive to this lady, but speaking in Loenese would not conform to diplomatic conventions.
Taking a deep breath, the Prime Minister of the Empire took a few steps forward and welcomed Audrey's arrival in Loenese with a smile.
After resting for a day, the "Pale Empress," sitting on her high throne, briefly met with Audrey, and then the negotiations between the two sides officially began.
The person responsible for the talks with Audrey was Santos, the Prime Minister of the Balam Empire.
Currently, the biggest obstacle to the conclusion of a peace treaty between the two sides lies in the demarcation of the national border.
In fact, they were arguing over a few small towns. Hobert was easy to talk to in other areas, but he would not budge an inch on territorial matters, not even a village or a hill.
The Balam Empire did not value the border line that much. The reason they were still acting so aggressively was to make the Southern Balam Duchy concede.
Or rather, they valued the fact that the Southern Balam Duchy would concede to them in this negotiation.
As a result, the negotiations fell into a stalemate. After about ten days of talks, there was no progress at all.
The Balam Empire was not worried about this. They felt that the Southern Balam Duchy was gradually being isolated in Backlund and, under pressure from the countries of the Northern Continent, they could no longer afford to be enemies with the Balam Empire.
Therefore, they believed that the Southern Balam Duchy would definitely compromise.
However, what they didn't know was that the current world situation had already exceeded their understanding.
Audrey was not worried either. Before setting off, Hobert had told her that the core strategy of this negotiation was to delay, to delay as long as possible.
By the time the spring plowing was over, there would be no need for peace talks. Hobert would use the Duchy's army to negotiate with the Balam Empire.
Last year's spring plowing started in mid-June. It is said that this year the "Creator" plans to start the spring plowing at the end of May.
…
Southern Balam Duchy, Monte Senas.
This is the capital of Akon, approaching the southernmost tip of this continent.
While Audrey was negotiating with the Balam Empire, a huge blizzard swept through here. The dark clouds were very low, and the cold wind howled, as if it wanted to sweep away everything on the earth.
Governor Docker sat in his warm office, watching the harsh weather outside, and took a sip of hot coffee.
He had already received news that the weather would start to warm up in about half a month at most, that is, in mid-May, and spring plowing would begin at the end of May!
In previous years, there were four or five months of winter here, but this year's winter was reduced by half, directly turning into two and a half months.
Knock knock knock~
Someone knocked on the door.
Docker put down his coffee cup: "Come in."
The governor's secretary opened a crack in the door and said, "Governor, Mr. Gabriel is here."
Docker was slightly stunned. Gabriel was the official Beyonder officer of Monte Senas, also known internally as the "Beyonder Mayor", one level below Docker, but they did not belong to the same system.
"Quick, invite him in."
"Governor, hello." Half a minute later, Gabriel took off his hat, which still had some snow on it, and walked in: "It's really cold today."
Docker poured him a cup of hot coffee: "Yes, according to the locals, this is the coldest winter in recent years."
The two sat down in the office, and Gabriel, who had a small mustache, said: "I am here to ask you to issue a notice throughout the city."
Docker was stunned again: "What notice?"
Generally speaking, official Beyonders do not interfere with the government's administration.
Gabriel said seriously: "You must not sleep during the day. If you have to sleep, you must sleep under the supervision of at least three people. If someone talks in their sleep at night, tie them up immediately and call the police immediately."
Docker looked at Gabriel. These requirements were too strange. If Gabriel's expression wasn't so serious, he would have thought the other party was joking.
Gabriel added: "We may be under a Beyonder attack."
Officials at the governor level have undergone some Beyonder training, so Gabriel did not hide anything: "Since a few days ago, there have been more than a dozen very similar Beyonder cases intermittently.
"At first, there was only one or two cases a day. As time went on, the frequency of cases increased. Before 10 o'clock today, there have already been three cases.
"These cases are similar. The victims all die suddenly in their sleep, and their bodies turn into Zombies. The Zombies have caused dozens of casualties.
"Also because there are more victims, we have summarized the process of the victims' deaths. First, they fall asleep for no reason during the day.
"People who fall asleep alone die in their sleep, while those who are watched by three or more people successfully escape.
"Also, when resting at night, if someone suddenly starts talking in their sleep incessantly, it means that they are under some kind of Beyonder ability.
"If we can get there as soon as possible, we may still be able to save them, but if we can't get there, the other party will soon turn into a Zombie with extremely high aggressiveness."
Governor Docker frowned when he heard this. Such a way of being victimized was completely beyond his imagination.
Gabriel said seriously: "This is the biggest Beyonder case since the founding of the country. I hope the government can pay attention to it!"
"Okay, I will send someone to issue a notice throughout the city." Docker asked again: "What is the progress of the case investigation?"
"We haven't found any clues to the murderer yet." Gabriel took a deep breath: "But don't worry, the 'Overseer' of the Southern County has arrived. I believe the case will be solved by noon at the latest."
At first, Gabriel thought that this should be a case involving the "Sleepless" pathway, but as the investigation unfolded, he found that it was not quite like that, but rather like a case related to the "Death" pathway.
The victims were not forcibly put to sleep, but their spiritual bodies were severely damaged, and their bodies had sudden sleep or sleep-talking stress reactions.
Yesterday, Gabriel had asked the "Beyonder Governor" of Akron to come and help investigate the case, but that Sequence 5 governor found that he still could not find the root of the problem after investigating all night.
But the frequency of cases is still increasing, so he requested the help of the "Prefect".
The "Overseer" of the Southern County is a "Earl of the Fallen" who arrived this morning and is investigating the case.
But so far, it is still impossible to confirm whether this is a deliberate Beyonder attack? Or has a Sealed Artifact of a Beyonder hiding here lost control?
But with the help of a demigod, Gabriel believes that the case will be solved soon.
Docker nodded: "I wish you success soon!
"Time is tight, I won't keep you here for coffee."
Gabriel nodded, he didn't plan to stay any longer.
Governor Docker sent Gabriel to the door, and in front of this "Beyonder Mayor", he called the secretary in and ordered her to write a notice immediately.
The two returned to the desk, and Governor Docker relayed the content of the notice.
The secretary was a little puzzled by the content of the notice, but she still went out to write it immediately.
Docker was about to continue drinking his coffee, but found that the coffee was already cold, and he noticed that the warm office was rapidly cooling down, and he could actually exhale white mist.
He put on a coat, a bad feeling creeping over him.
Just then, Docker heard the secretary, who had just gone out, say, "Mr. Gabriel, why... why are you standing here asleep?"
Docker felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end. He ran outwards while shouting, "Quick, open the door, get some people to watch him!"
"Ah!"
Before he could even get out the door, he heard a scream from outside.
Docker immediately stopped and ran back, opened the second drawer, and took out the pistol inside.
Clang!
Docker looked up. The office door was wide open. The secretary who had just left was lying in a pool of blood, chest a mangled mess, convulsing.
Gabriel was nowhere to be seen.
Docker took a deep breath, released the safety on the pistol, pointed it towards the door, and rushed towards the window as fast as he could.
Creak~
Suddenly, Docker heard a strange sound behind him.
Just as he was about to turn the gun towards the back, he suddenly felt something hit him in the back. Then, something seemed to emerge from his chest.
Docker seemed to understand. He lowered his head slightly and saw a hand covered in blood protruding from his chest. The hand was emitting a faint heat, and his heart was still throbbing.
The next second, the hand and heart were withdrawn, and Docker fell to the ground, powerless.
In the last moment of his life, he saw Gabriel, who had been polite just moments before, with only the whites of his eyes showing. He was gnawing on the secretary's heart, half of his face covered in blood, while his other hand clutched Docker's heart.
This was no longer a person, but a monster.
...
The capital of the Balam Empire, Sevas City.
Yesterday, Santos, the Prime Minister of the Balam Empire, had issued harsh words, telling Audrey to go back and "reflect" on things, so negotiations did not continue today.
Audrey was leisurely reading a book in the residence arranged for her.
Suddenly, she noticed that her surroundings had become much colder. Then, her spirituality sensed something, so she got up and put down the book.
At this moment, she saw two not-very-large bronze doors appearing in front of her.
Immediately afterward, an immense pressure descended, causing Audrey to subconsciously lower her head.
At the same time, she knew who had come, so she bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress."
The pale-faced, expressionless "Pale Empress" Sia Palenque Eggers emerged from the two bronze doors. The "Underworld Gate" behind her immediately closed.
"This is your last chance," Sia said in a chilling voice.
Audrey paused slightly, not quite understanding what the "Pale Empress" meant, but knowing the essentials of negotiation, she did not ask.
Suah had no choice but to continue, "If you give up the entire Highland region, I will help you solve the problem."
She sneered. "This is the price you pay for your arrogance."
Only then did Audrey ask, "What problem?"
"Go investigate it yourselves."
Audrey, with her head lowered, was silent for a second or two before saying, "You're not very clear either, are you?"
Sia snorted coldly, said nothing, and left through the Underworld.
Although the room was still very cold, the immense mental pressure was gone.
Audrey smiled. It seemed she had guessed correctly. If the Balam Empire truly had some irresistible deterrent, they would have used it already.
But the fact that the "Pale Empress" personally came to remind her of this matter still indicated the special nature of the situation.
It was very likely that the higher-ups of the Balam Empire had also suddenly noticed that a major event was happening in the South Balam Duchy, and that Beyonders of the "Death" pathway could solve this problem relatively easily, which was why the "Pale Empress" had personally come to engage in strategic blackmail?
Or perhaps they had noticed what was happening long ago, but had not paid attention to it. Now, the matter was beyond their control, but fortunately, the event had broken out on the territory of the South Balam Duchy.
In any case, anything that could make a Sequence 1 personally engage in blackmail must be a major event!
With this judgment, Audrey immediately prayed to the "Creator" and reported the matter.
Two or three minutes later, the space in front of Audrey became illusory again. Beverly, wearing a circular jade pendant made of black crystal, emerged from the spirit world: "Madam, the Grand Duke has sent me to escort you back home."
Audrey immediately asked, "Has anything unusual happened at home?"
"It's not very clear yet," Beverly explained. "However, the Grand Duke judges that it should be related to a large-scale Beyonder case in the Akon region. The Grand Duke has already rushed to the scene, which is why he ordered me to escort you."
Audrey asked again, "Can Hobert solve the problem? Or rather, does this problem require a high-sequence Beyonder of a certain pathway to solve?"
Then, she briefly recounted the "Pale Empress's" threat.
Beverly suddenly smiled. "You may not have such a deep understanding of the 'Lawyer' pathway."
"As long as it is a problem that the 'Pale Empress' level can solve, the Grand Duke can definitely solve it too."
Audrey slowly nodded, but after considering it, she said, "I want to stay here."
Then, she explained to Beverly, "The Akon region is Hobert's battlefield, and this place is my battlefield.
"I want to question the Balam Empire authorities as to why they had already noticed the potential Beyonder case in advance, but did not remind us."
Beverly frowned. "They had already noticed it?"
"I can't be sure, but that's how I can question them!" Audrey, already a veteran diplomat, pursed her lips.
This was very much to Beverly's liking: "Wait a moment."
She took out a small glass bottle with a ball of red flame inside and injected spirituality into it.
Soon, two hands burning with flames tore open the real world, and Raymond came to his sister's side.
Together, these siblings dared to confront any Sequence 1.
In addition, in any faction, once they reach the level of an angel, their autonomy is very high.
Unless the "Creator" personally issues an order, they can make certain adjustments to their tasks based on their own judgment.
At this moment, Beverly thought: Hobert told me to safely escort Audrey back, but he didn't say when Audrey should go back, as long as Audrey is safe.
However, I still have to report to Hobert through prayer. If he doesn't insist, then I will follow my own ideas.
Soon, she received feedback from Hobert, expressing respect for Audrey's choice, and instructing the three of them that if there was any danger, they should leave immediately.
Then, Beverly asked Audrey, "What are we going to do next?"
Audrey said, "Accompany me to question the 'Pale Empress'."
"Haha, no problem."
...
After hearing Audrey's prayer, Hobert, of course, did not intend to let the "Pale Empress" help. He was even less likely to hand over the territory he had worked so hard to take.
If he really needed the Sequence 1 level ability of the "Death" pathway, Hobert would rather go to Bernadette and borrow the Sealed Artifact in her hand that corresponded to the "Pale Emperor."
He made some preparations and immediately rushed to the Akon region.
In the spirit world, Hobert felt the restlessness of the spirit world creatures here, which made him realize that the impact of this extraordinary event must be significant.
Just as he arrived in the suburbs of Monteson Port from the spirit world, Hobert received another prayer from Beverly, learning of Audrey's plan.
With Beverly and her brother by Audrey's side, Hobert didn't have to worry about Audrey's safety, so after giving a response, he began to observe Monteson Port from afar.
This port city in the heavy snow gave people a very cold feeling. The temperature seemed to be close to that of Antarctica.
In addition, Hobert felt the aura of death, as if the city in front of him could turn into a city of the dead at any time!
Hobert pondered for a moment, first "weakening" the ongoing, powerful blizzard.
The cold wind and heavy snow immediately disappeared, leaving only a few snowflakes still falling to the ground.
Immediately afterward, Hobert waved his hand towards the sky, and the oppressive dark clouds immediately cracked, and the sun shone on the earth, with the snowflakes reflecting a little bit of light, making the surroundings look a little dreamlike.
The temperature gradually rose, gradually becoming normal, but the aura of death did not weaken in any way.
Hobert then "distorted" the aura of death. Although he easily completed the corresponding operation, the aura of death quickly enveloped the city again.
He roughly understood that he had to find the source of the aura of death, otherwise, no matter how he "distorted" it, the aura of death would quickly replenish itself.
So, Hobert took a step, the distance being "distorted" by Him. When his raised foot touched the ground, He had already appeared in the Beyonder Affairs Bureau of this city.
Only two Beyonders remained on duty here, peering out of the hall's windows.
It had been a blizzard just moments ago, but now it suddenly cleared up, a rare sight not just for ordinary people, but for most Beyonders as well.
Hobert didn't disturb them, sitting down in the reception area of the hall.
A dozen seconds later, Ted Balk, the "Earl of the Fallen," who had received the news through the "Mystical Switchboard System" just as Hobert had set off, rushed in from outside: "Your Grace."
The two remaining Beyonders then noticed that Duke Hobert was already sitting on the sofa in the reception area, and they quickly came over to salute.
Hobert waved his hand at them and asked Ted, "How is the investigation going?"
"We have confirmed that the spiritual bodies of some people have mutated, which is why they suddenly turned into Zombies," Ted reported succinctly. "I suspect that there might be a Underworld Gate hidden in this city."
"This gate was previously sealed, but now it has been opened by some people with ulterior motives."
Hobert first praised him: "A very reasonable guess."
Then He added: "I have just learned a very important piece of information. The 'Pale Empress' of the Balam Empire seems to know the cause of this matter."
Ted, who was in his thirties, was slightly taken aback: "Did they do it?"
Hobert shook his head: "Things may not be that simple."
Then He asked, "How many people are there in this city?"
Ted looked at the two local official Beyonders next to him. One of the official Beyonders said, "About 30,000 people."
Because winter lasts about 5 months each year here, the population is not large to begin with.
After the Southern Balam Duchy occupied this place, it had not yet had time to transfer immigrants here on a large scale, so the capital of this state only had 30,000 people.
Hobert pondered for a moment and said, "Issue a notice to the state government and the city government that I am now taking over here, and let them quickly organize people to evacuate all the ordinary people here."
"The evacuation method is: gather all the people in the square, and I will send them away."
Ted was slightly stunned, suddenly realizing that the situation seemed more serious than he had imagined.
Then he reacted, telling one of the two Beyonders next to him to recall his subordinates, and the other to do the corresponding prayers and notifications.
Hobert also used the "Beyonder Communication System" to directly contact the Southern County government and the Duchy government, asking them to prepare to receive the refugees here.
Currently, the entire southern part of the Southern Balam Duchy is in a state of freezing cold. It is necessary to prepare enough food, tents, heating materials, etc., and resettle them, which requires the cooperation of higher-level governments.
After giving the orders, Hobert came to the roof, looking at the streets outside, the aura of death was getting stronger and stronger!
He took out the uniqueness of the "Black Emperor" pathway from the "Nation of Disorder" and waved it towards the ice and snow-covered city, fundamentally "altering" the concept of death in this city.
The increasingly strong aura of death was finally temporarily contained, but the negative effect of doing so was that the elderly and patients in hospitals or some homes, who were originally about to return to the Land of the Dead, could not die. They had to leave here before they could complete the process of death.
Hobert was very clear that such "tampering" could only last for a while, so it was necessary to complete the evacuation as soon as possible.
He did not participate in the action of gathering all the residents, but began to look for the connection between this place and the underworld.
In Hobert's vision, this place was only full of the aura of death, but he could not see where the entrance was?
So, He used Mr. Azik's mark and used the ability of "Connection" to search.
After using the ability of "Connection," Hobert found that the surrounding light seemed to dim a lot, which made Him frown slightly, not understanding why there would be such a reaction.
But in the next second, Hobert's eyes widened: As far as the eye could see! They were all entrances to the underworld!
Where was this an entrance? It was completely the underworld about to appear in the real world!
Then Hobert felt a little strange, why would such a thing happen?
After thinking for a while, He couldn't think of any clues.
So, He decided not to think about it for now, because at the current evacuation speed, it was too late, so He "distorted" his voice, so that people within two hundred kilometers could hear: "Take five minutes to put on your cotton clothes, bring some food and winter items! Five minutes later, I will take you away from here."
With Hobert's current ability, He could completely "distort" all creatures within such a large range to other places.
But this would definitely cause a certain degree of panic, so if the situation was not already very serious, He would not want to do this.
Fortunately, the winter population of Akon region is not large, and a large part of the population is concentrated in the city, and the people in the countryside are also nesting in their homes.
Except for individual cases of hunting or cutting trees outside, they should be able to prepare within five minutes.
Of course, some people will definitely panic, and some people will definitely not understand, but these are not important anymore, send everyone out first.
During these five minutes, Hobert confirmed two resettlement locations with the Duchy government, and then a large-scale evacuation operation began!
Hobert first "distorted" a part of the residents of Monteson Port and sent them to Rockville City, hundreds of kilometers away.
Then, He "distorted" the villagers in the surrounding villages to gather in the city square first, and then sent them to Angel City, thousands of kilometers away, together with the remaining residents of Monteson Port.
The city suddenly became quiet. Hobert once again "distorted" his voice so that the whole city could hear: "Official Beyonders, bring the corresponding sealed items, and all immediately retreat through the teleportation array!"
Hobert planned to stay alone to investigate how to prevent this change.
But He soon discovered that when the aura of living people weakened, the speed at which the underworld merged with the real world suddenly became faster, and the light in the entire city suddenly dimmed, as if night had come early.
Hobert immediately gathered all the Beyonders in the city together, but it was still one step too late. The spiritual bodies of two Beyonders were affected by the underworld and mutated, turning into Zombies on the spot.
He immediately appeared next to these official Beyonders, using his angelic aura to protect their spiritual bodies.
Then Hobert discovered that his "distortion" or "tampering" could only send them deeper into the underworld.
The underworld had already merged with the city to a certain extent!
"Go to the teleportation array!" Hobert said immediately. The next second, they appeared in front of the teleportation array.
Hobert pointed at the teleportation array, injecting spirituality into the teleportation array from the air. Although the teleportation array was activated, Hobert's spirituality sensed that this teleportation array would not be able to teleport the people behind Him to the outside world.
Theoretically speaking, the underworld is a part of the spirit world, and the teleportation array should not fail.

He frowned: "That's... that's Calderon?"
