Chapter 3120: Chapter 641: The Golden Warhammer Expedition

But overall.

To quote the original words of the Great Councilman Levi from his speech in the year 3700:

[Children, you are blessed with great fortune. You came at the best of times. Ten thousand years ago, many with even greater talent and diligence than yourselves stopped at the threshold of primordial soul, let alone reaching the ninth circle. So, you must cherish this era, and guard it well. For a better tomorrow, fight to the end against our enemies!]

Black Swamp World.

The headquarters of the School of Insects has produced two more Nine-Ring Worm Masters. Besides the Golden Blade Guest, a new type of legendary Zerg, the [Gold-Eating Purple Crystal Dragon Centipede], has also been bred. It is impervious to blades and arrows, encased in purple armor, and can devour immense wealth to grow stronger.

Moreover, its resistance to spells and elements is quite high.

The School of Insects calls it the "Purple Crystal Worm."

Its combat power far exceeds the average standard of wizards.

In battles against magical professions, it is extremely effective.

However, its cost of creation is also quite exorbitant, and mass production is currently unfeasible.

At the Giant Beast Paradise.

The old director, Melina, passed away, and the Paradise held a grand funeral in her honor.

As a contemporary of Levi, she ultimately failed to step into the ninth circle, and unwilling to waste the Thousand-Year Potion, bequeathed her quota to her descendant with greater talent.

In a hundred years of seclusion, many familiar faces have departed as well.

For this, Levi also felt much regret.

Now, the Giant Beast Paradise has already become the largest Dragon Clan and rare transcendent creature breeding base in Nora, together with the Spirit Summoning Continent and the Beast Tamer Continent, they are known as the "Three Royal Families."

Every Beast Master and spiritual beast with dreams comes here on a pilgrimage.

The Beast Taming Faction continues to become more refined.

The Way of Beast Tamer—commanding dragons is the highest honor.

To ride the Dragon Clan remains the most glorious of things.

The circumstances in the Ancient Dragon Empire are not ideal.

Lord Cang, Feather King, and Wing King—the old three kings—are all stuck at level 8 middle or late stage.

They are now reaching the end of their lifespan, with no hope of reaching level 9.

The new crop of level 8s feels as if their potential is also being exhausted.

Perhaps the shackles of Lizardman genetics naturally lie at level 9.

However, there has been a notable emergence of powerful beings above level 6.

Levi ordered the Dusk Holy Temple to establish a research team.

He seeks to help the Ancient Dragon Empire out of its predicament and strive for further progress as soon as possible.

The early development of the Ancient Dragon Continent was all bought with the lives of the Lizardmen.

To this day, they still devoutly worship the Emperor.

Naturally, Levi would never abandon those left behind.

The Arcane Academy flourishes.

To hold a place among wizard civilization—

The principal, Vicken, has blazed a new trail, choosing a different path.

A great number of those lacking wizarding talent, but gifted with arcane abilities, were sent here.

Many promising candidates have emerged.

Wizard, Ancient Mage, Arcanist, and the road of [Spiritual Ability User] pioneered by the top-level Spiritual Venerable—these are all flourishing spell professions of today.

Now, in Nora, the strong are establishing various dojos one after another.

They preach and teach, aspiring to spread their doctrines far and wide.

As a hundred schools of thought contend, the speed of transcendent civilization’s evolution far surpasses the past.

...

Once Levi emerged from seclusion—

The first thing he did was, at the report of 3700, to officially acknowledge those level 10 strongmen who fell in war, ensuring they are ever remembered by the public.

The lower levels cannot glimpse the views from the summits above.

If the congress does not say, many might still think the Dragon Flame God lives on.

The congress has compiled the "Legendary Chronicles."

Through subtle artistic embellishment, they present to the public, for the first time, the major life achievements of each Legendary Wizard, rendered vividly and in detail, and it was highly acclaimed.

...

On this day.

On Sorren Continent, a towering aura swept across the land.

"It’s in the direction of the Hand of Netherworld Prison."

"He’s broken through again."

"Our Nora has gained yet another top-level power."

The vast monumental tomb nearly shrouded all of Sorren Continent.

Upon it stands the imposing Heroic Spirit Temple, surrounded by mighty experts.

The Hand of Netherworld Prison threw his head back in laughter, utterly delighted.

It had only been thirteen hundred years since he became a Ten-Ring Senior, and for him to break through so quickly—he could not have done so without the "help" of the Archdevil of Hell. After the war, the congress bought the spoils of the Archdevil of Hell and allocated the entirety to him through compensation of other goods.

He was fully funded to become a top-level powerhouse.

This old legend of a past era did not disappoint expectations.

Of what the Archdevil of Hell brought, he has only absorbed a portion. With time, to become Four Emperor Level, and even step into Supreme, is possible.

The masses arrived to pay tribute.

In the past century, there have been quite a few level 10 strongmen whose strength has grown greatly.

Blue Dream Star Lord advanced to level 10 middle stage.

Shadow Civilization gained another level 10 power.

The Spiritual Venerable has even become the new level 10 peak expert.

Among the allies of the Underworld, there has also been much progress.

After all, two-thirds of the spoils of this battle were distributed to the Underworld.

Once those are digested, surely more top-level powers will be born.

Furthermore,

After recuperating, the number of level 9 experts has rebounded, with 40 knights, 440 Grand Wizards, and 640 from All Clans, though they are still some distance from the peak period.

Both Nora and the Underworld are searching for traces of Nightmare.

Yet so far, there have been no results.

Levi convened the Supreme Council, ordering each department to prepare. Once he returned from his journey, they would launch the second large-scale expedition to the Nightmare World.

He simply refused to believe that the Nightmare Will would really abandon its eons-old foundation. He would force the Nightmare Will to appear. In the meantime, Nora, too, must rapidly strengthen itself.

...

As the years pass, thirty years later—

Land of Darkness.

The Heavenly Will has stationed here for one hundred and fifty years.

On this day, a disturbance came from the golden barrier.

The giant, who slumbered with a surface bright as the Sun, awakened.

Emmon was dazed for a moment, then asked:

"What year is it now?"

"Nora, year 3730."

"Good, I haven’t slept too long."

"How are you? If you haven’t recovered yet, sleep a while longer. With me standing watch, no one can disturb you. Nightmare has already vanished without a trace."
