The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 853 - 535: The Dwarves Arrive

The northern passage’s warfare is gradually calming down.

According to the Night Watcher’s intelligence, the forces of the rats and Evil God are retreating across the board, redistributing their troops to key strategic points to curb the expansion of the United Army.

After months of intense fighting, the front-line Night Watchers finally have a brief moment to catch their breath.

In a fortress occupied by the Chaos Forces, representatives from various factions are gathered together.

A man cloaked entirely in black, exuding an aura of darkness, was the first to speak: "We have failed, and our God is extremely displeased."

As he spoke, his gaze swept across the room but did not linger on the Blood God Followers and the rat representatives.

After all, these two sides indeed had little to be blamed for.

The strong desire for warfare and slaughter made the Blood God’s followers almost always charge at the forefront. Before the Barbarian Race joined the fray, the Blood God’s followers were the sharp blades that breached defenses, constantly fighting on the front lines of battle.

Of course, the other side was also happy to see this situation. Every battle, every skirmish involving the Evil God Followers, every head chopped off, all contributed power to their worshiped God.

As for the rats, there’s even less to say. This war was initiated by the rats, and their continually surging forces have been pouring into the battlefield.

The man’s reproachful gaze mainly fell on the Plague Believers and the Desire Believers.

However, faced with his gaze, these two factions were utterly indifferent, sitting there as if nothing had happened.

"Why don’t we collaborate again, find a way to break through the defense line, and understand what exactly that black tower is for."

At present, without a doubt, everyone’s attention was focused on the mysterious tower. Just from its appearance, one could tell that the Night Watchers must have spent a great deal of effort building this structure.

Not only that, they even used an entire Stone of Creation, granting it even more formidable power.

As such, this structure must possess extremely powerful functions. Each day they don’t understand this building’s specific purpose feels like an unseen mountain pressing on the Chaos Forces’s minds.

There must be a way to figure it out, for the unknown is always the most terrifying.

"No, I’m not interested," the Blood God’s Apostle responded bluntly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn’t bother to listen any longer, stood up directly, and walked out the door.

"I’m not interested either." The Plague Apostle and the Desire Apostle also got up one after another and left the meeting room.

The Blood God’s Apostle had no interest in this kind of infiltration and reconnaissance mission, for a simple reason. For them, such sneaky tasks were entirely unfitting. Only the fiercest combat, endless attacks, were the targets their hearts desired.

Driven by the fanaticism of war, once they got carried away, even teammates might become targets of their attacks.

As for the other two Apostles, they were originally uninterested in attacking this continent. The primary reason they were willing to assist the rats was that they saw the rats’ vast population as an opportunity to spread their faith.

Throughout the entire offensive, these two sides exerted very little effort. Otherwise, with their ability to stir storms, the United Army’s offensive pace would have been severely hindered.

In the meeting room, only the rat representative, the newly arrived Barbarian King, and the Shadow Believers lurking in the dark corner remained.

"Forget it, it’s fine like this. They will taste the bitter fruit in the future."

...

Half Moon Bay.

Inside the command post.

Metwell, the new Tactical Master of the Night Watchers, stood by the discussion table, surveying those present.

Calvin stood on one side of the table, looking across from him.

Opposite him was a dwarf who had just arrived. This dwarf was an important senator of the Night Watchers’ Candlelight Council and the representative of the dwarves within the Night Watchers - Sergio.

"That black tower, like a high wall piercing the clouds, ah, I’ve really missed out on a major event."

Sergio murmured to himself in a low voice, but everyone present heard him clearly.

To this, others felt more or less emotional. Due to the isolation wall set by the rats, they had yet to rendezvous with the main forces of the Night Watchers, and naturally, had no chance to witness the much-discussed Tower of Trial in person.

Sergio muttered for a while before casting his gaze at Calvin across from him.

"I’ve heard Kana mention you, mage," he said, extending his hand.

Seeing this, Calvin appeared slightly reserved, bowing slightly and saying, "Hello, honorable councilor."

"Haha, alright, there’s no need for such formalities. Although I do enjoy this position quite a bit. I’m Sergio, you must have heard my name by now. This is our first meeting, welcome to the Night Watchers, Calvin."

Hearing these words, Calvin quietly let out a sigh of relief and gently nodded.

Through the Night Watchers’ Identification System, Calvin could clearly see the other’s level.

Sergio’s level had already reached Level Ten, also at the stage of impacting the Legendary Realm.

Among the important senators of the Candlelight Council, the representatives of the Half-Elf and human had not yet reached Level Ten.

After all, being in this position requires a lot of energy to handle overall affairs, naturally impacting personal strength enhancement to some extent.

Moreover, before the Tower of Trial appeared, high-level enemies were already rare. Even when encountered, defeating them in one or two battles on the battlefield was by no means easy.

Since the establishment of the Night Watchers, only Kana and Alyris have successfully risen to the Legendary Realm through combat.

These two undoubtedly always fought on the front lines, facing the most difficult battles, often winning against stronger foes, thereby accumulating enough experience to enhance their power.

And currently, only Raelia reached Level Ten.

As the captain of the initial Soul Guardian team, Raelia has always charged at the forefront of battles, shouldering various arduous tasks, naturally advancing in level at a rapid pace.

As for Sergio and Maxim, they already had high levels when they joined the Night Watchers.

And compared to the two senators responsible for logistics, these two had been out in the field fighting for years, not lacking opportunities to gain experience and level up, thus smoothly reaching Level Ten.

For them, advancing to the Legendary Realm is not difficult. They possess abundant heritage, and their original power was close to the limit. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Perhaps it won’t be long before they ascend to the Legendary Realm, possibly even sooner than Raelia.

This can also be considered an effect brought by datafication.

To ascend to the Legendary Realm requires a complete integration of one’s own power, and Raelia, upgrading from Level Four to Level Ten all the way through, has a more profound foundation, naturally taking longer to break into the Legendary Realm than others.

"Speaker, do you have any ideas on the upcoming battles?" Metwell asked with a smile.

Sergio waved his hand: "Oh, come on, you know I don’t have much experience in leading battles.

Now that you have been honored with the title of Tactical Master, you surely have a better understanding of war than I do, so you handle the command. The dwarf troops I brought can be freely deployed by you; they are promising young lads but still lacking enough insight into war."

Hearing this, Metwell nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.
