1448 The War that Destroyed a Country Part 2 (2/2)

All of the Holy See's elites were waiting to engage in a decisive battle on the Glorious Plains.

The timely divine omen caused Saleen to have no other choice. He had not conquered the Holy See, so he could not break away from the Goddess of Nature.

While Saleen's army advanced towards the Glorious Plains, in Metatrin City, Saleen's son and daughter practiced their magic spells. The mythical beast that they were raising suddenly woke from its deep slumber.

The mythical beast was originally the size of an ordinary house cat. It had grown that large after a thousand years. Austine thought that the mythical beast needed 10,000 years to mature. They never guessed that it would start to grow frenziedly.

The pair gazed at the mythical beast nervously. When the mythical beast had been young, it had been mistreated for a long time. They did not know if it would become a shadow in its heart or if it would be very frightened upon seeing the pair.

The mythical beast's scales grew continuously. They shed, but not substantially. In half a day, they grew to the size of a warhorse.

Glancing at the pair of no-good masters, the mythical beast growled low. It jumped up and flew out through the temple window, heading south.

Flodi wanted to chase after it but was pulled back by her elder brother.

”Little sister, don't go. Don't you know about the goddess' revival?”

Flodi stamped her foot. ”So what if she has been revived? Will Father fear the goddess?”

”The beast was left behind by the goddess. Father said that it came from the goddess' temple at the center of the Myers Continent. It is flying in that direction. We will just release a figure to chase after it.”

Austin had a prudent personality that was extremely similar to a young Saleen.

Flodi could not persuade her elder brother. She felt that it was somewhat strange, so she did not persist, but rather released a star figure that Saleen had left for them to pursue the beast.

The mythical beast did not trigger any of Metatrin City's defensive attacks when it flew out of the city. No one knew what caused its actions.

The mythical beast flew south, and the star figure followed right behind it. Saleen no longer used the astrologer's power much, but the star figure was much more capable than puppets at the same level, and it was easier to give it directions.

His two children had never really encountered any outsiders. Saleen could not relax if he allowed other mages to serve them, so he had sent about 100 star figures each to act as their servants.

After dispatching a star figure to pursue the mythical beast, Austin sent a letter to his father.

Saleen saw his son's letter and immediately knew that things were not good. He had spoken about his plans in front of the mythical beast. If the mythical beast really returned to the Myers Goddess' side, wouldn't she find out about the inside details of his plans?

But Austin did not do anything wrong. The mythical beast's escape was probably the goddess' setup. Chasing after it would not necessarily bring anything good.

Saleen immediately contacted Daliang City, hoping that they could send people to intercept it. However, the mythical beast was alive and had its own will. Even if Saleen intercepted it himself, he might not necessarily be able to locate it.

As expected, after an hour, Austin sent another letter to his father, informing him that the star figure had lost its trail.

The level 10 star figure had been subjected to Saleen's modifications, and its flight could reach up to 200 kilometers. Saleen only had a few people by his side who were faster. Other people would not even be able to touch the corners of the figure in flight.

Saleen had the intention to investigate it personally. His territorial power expanded, and an area up to 200 kilometers in width was within his range of surveillance.

But if he caught up to it, then what? Saleen did not know if he should kill it or capture it.

The mythical beast flew towards the Purgatory Desert in the center of the continent. It probably went because of the goddess' summons. If Saleen killed it, it was evident what his attitude towards the goddess was.

After thinking it over, Saleen decided to drop the matter. The goddess was no fool, and he could not deceive her. Originally, he had wanted to eliminate the Holy See, and then after having a decisive battle with the Lord Glory, the goddess would be revived. It was good for her to be revived now. He would have to rely on Myers for the decisive battle with the Lord of Glory. He could have some more time for cultivation.

The most important thing was creating a divine persona to enter the Hall of Gods and exchange it for time.

However, would there still be a divine persona in existence?

Saleen directed his gaze towards Holy City. No, that wasn't it. The Holy City was the place that the Lord of Glory had selected. With the Lord of Glory's personality, he definitely would not leave his divine persona behind.

The one who was most likely to possess a divine persona was still the Myers Goddess.

Initially, the Myers Goddess' rank had been high, and she had killed gods who were stronger than her before. Would he have to demand a divine persona from the Myers Goddess to possess the ability to kill the goddess?

No matter how much of an idiot the goddess was, she would not do such a thing.
