Chapter 483: The Fourth Sub-Arena of the Evil God’s Arena

“Traveler of the River of Time, knower of all mysteries, master of the extraordinary rites, Lord of the Court of Fate! Have you heard my voice?”

“I wish to know how to labyrinthify the City of Desolation.”

Perhaps it was due to the countless prayers he had offered, but Charlot Mecklenburg suddenly felt as though the back of his head had been lashed by a silver serpent’s tail. The strike was neither too heavy nor too light—just enough to sting without knocking him uncon...

“You’ve only just begun to recover. It’s better for you to rest quietly and avoid moving around too much,” the white-bearded elder advised kindly.

“Understood,” Li Hao replied with a nod.

He was well aware of his current physical condition. It was worse than ever. After spending too long in the void, his battle-hardened body was shattered and had been deeply corroded by the forces of the voi...

"This child... I hope she can cultivate the things she desires in this life."

Lin Shanhai gazed at his departing granddaughter, shaking his head with a soft sigh.

With Lin Qingying's exceptional talent and her innate Sacred Bones, coupled with the frequent revelations of saints' reincarnations and manifestations over the past millennia, it was hard not to speculate that she too mig...

Chapter 240: The Lieutenant of Corsica

Lieutenant Bwanaba’s thoughts were consumed by the orders issued from Paris earlier: he was authorized to quell rebellions without seeking approval from his superior officers.

More importantly, successfully suppressing the insurrection before him could very well secure his promotion.

As the son of a minor noble family on Corsica, Lieutenant Bwanaba understood that, barring extraordinary events, his military career would likel...

Chapter 239: Completing the Final Weak Link

Joseph was admiring the rolling spurs of the Alps in the distance—sightseeing was almost his greatest pleasure during the march—when he noticed a cannon stuck ahead. Without hesitation, he spurred his horse forward.

The soldiers, straining every sinew to pull the cannon free, noticed a slightly shorter figure approaching. When they turned to look, their spirits soared instantly.

“It’s His Royal Highness, the Crown ...

Chapter 240: Exploiting the Germans

"Is it just a matter of allowances?" Kobdo guided Major Langf toward continuing his explanation.

"No, no, certainly not!" Major Langf waved his hand toward the plane behind him. "Look at our planes, they are all reconnaissance aircraft, not a single one with a machine gun or fighter plane, not one!"

A few pilots couldn't help but gather around, complaining in a chorus:

"Even the reconnaissance planes are old...

Chapter 239: A Topic

The organization of military forces generally follows this principle:

If communication equipment is poor and command capability is lacking, military branches should be separated as much as possible, to ease the command pressure and avoid confusion.

On the other hand, if communication equipment is good and command abilities are high, different branches of the military can be integrated under unified command.

The latter conc...

Chapter 482: If You Push Me, I’ll Really Go After Senior Menielman

“If you push me any further, I swear I’ll really go after Senior Menielman...”

“Hmm, no, better not. I can’t let Annie down.”

Charlot was troubled when a miraculous scene unfolded before his eyes. A golden beam of light shot skyward from the Golden Temple, glowing intensely and remaining for a long time.

Suddenly enlightened, Charlot pressed his hand to the ground and realized that the City of the Pale could indeed undergo Labyrinth Transformation.

When Cha...

Chapter 481: A Novel Comes with Zimourman Merchandise

Charlot suddenly remembered another name for Captain Huntington!

—Zimourman Axel Robin!

The unparalleled troublemaker of the era, unmatched and invincible.

Charlot deeply regretted coming to watch the spectacle. Even with Juno Arthur by his side, it might not be enough to fend off Zimourman and protect him. Moreover, Juno was currently at the Temple of the Serpent of Fate, quite some distance away.

Zimourman glanced back and saw Charlot. A smile crossed his face, as ...

The boy’s various skills had opened his eyes in no small measure. At this moment, the subtle concealment technique used here was something he would have found almost impossible to detect without having attained sainthood through the Void Dao.

After spending more than ten minutes erasing the drop of divine blood, the Void Saint scanned the area once more before vanishing without ...

Volume 3 - Chapter 121: Ten Years, Sword Ancestor Holy Land - Part 3

As time passed, the Void Holy Land continued to face provocations from the two saints, but another of his avatars had already formed a good relationship with the Yang Saint, inviting him to assist. For now, the situation had stabilized.

Three more years passed in a blur.

The Void Saint's avatar sat quietly, gazing at the unchanged void. The desperate expression of that young man’s final moments s...

Chapter 238: A Covert Operation

The gang member glared menacingly at the distant church, shouting at the gathered crowd, “Don’t be fooled by those priests! Their food distribution will last only until tomorrow or the day after. If we don’t want to starve, we have to rely on ourselves!”

Under orders from their employer—an agent of the Duke of Orléans—they needed to incite a riot of at least 500 people today to earn their pay.

At the moment, however, only...

Bishop Brienne asked doubtfully:
“Are you referring to the Church?”

“Oh, I forgot to tell you,” Joseph said, tapping his forehead. “Speaking of which, I’ll need your assistance.”

When Brienne learned that Archbishop Beaumont, Archbishop d’Avreux, and others had agreed to contribute their "private grain reserves" to address the grain shortages in the southern provinces, he was overjoyed:
“How did you convince them?�...

Chapter 238: The Army Planes “Confiscated”?

Charles had been away from the front line for less than half an hour when, miraculously, the front line was restored to its full combat status, and the entire defensive line was in action again.

Gallieni was still uneasy. He ordered the infantry military police to follow the plan and patrol the front line.

However, the report from the military police captain was: "They are fighting seriously, General. ...

The next moment, the French soldiers erupted in excitement. "My God, you... you are Charles, you are Charles!"

It was only then that the soldiers realized, and they began to chatter in succession:

"Is he really Charles?"

"The one who always helps us win battles?"

"Yes, he even gave us a lot of supplies, including marching blankets!"

...

Then, the soldiers rushed forward to shake Charles' hand.<...

Chapter 480: The First Temple of the Serpent of Fate in the Pale City

Charlot thoughtfully provided a crew of ghostly sailors. As for what fate awaited those who ventured to the New Continent aboard ghost ships? Apologies, even Charlot himself couldn’t be certain.

At any rate, Charlot prided himself on being trustworthy and warned the ghostly sailors to behave and avoid exposing their true nature as sinister spirits.

Some ghost ships, especially those submerged in seawater for fewer years, appeared relatively pristine. Their crews were only mildly...

Chapter 479: I Can Help You Obtain a Document for Public Preaching

Charlot Mecklenburg smiled and said, “Of course!”

The Pale City had a population of tens of thousands, but there were relatively few minors under the age of fifteen—perhaps only a few thousand. Though this demographic structure was clearly abnormal for a typical population, Charlot was not conducting a census. His sole intention here was to reestablish the faith of the Serpent of Fate.

As for the few thousand minors, their value in centimes wasn’t particularly significant....

Saints live long lives and are naturally acquainted with each other.

"Void Saint, how could a mere junior provoke your killing intent? You don’t seem to have any grudges with the Ji family, do you?"

The avatar of the Yang Saint spoke with a hint of curiosity, probing the other's motives with his question.

Hearing this, Li Hao felt as though cold water had been poured over him...

As the Void Saint made his move again, waves surged within the void. These were the Void Tides, manifestations of the true power of the Void Saint's avatar projection.

Li Hao unfolded his Dao Domain, but the forty-nine layers of Dao Domain were swiftly pierced, leaving him unable to change the situation.

Harnessing the power of the void, he condensed it into a single sword and...

Chapter 236: Opportunity in a Crisis

Joseph emerged from the White Maple Grove Manor with newfound confidence.

The Archbishop of Paris and the bishops of Valois and three other districts had agreed to a “grain-for-shares” deal. With Talleyrand from the Autun district and Brienne from Toulouse also on board, nearly half of the most influential clergy in the French Church were now involved.

The next step would be persuading the southern dioceses to join the agreem...

After hearing the Crown Prince’s question, Talleyrand’s face immediately twisted into an expression of constipation. “Your Highness, I do know a little, but such matters…”

Joseph smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I bear no ill will. I only wish to present some gifts.”

Talleyrand wrestled internally for a moment, but in the end, the allure of being a Foreign Minister won out. He picked up pen and paper, pondering as he be...

Chapter 236: The Last-Day Revelry

The front at Ypres was already in full swing.

They had lit rows of candles at the edge of the trenches, cleverly using entrenching tools to block the wind. Under the flickering candlelight, some were playing the accordion, and a large crowd of soldiers had gathered around—British, French, and German alike.

To the tune of the accordion, they sang popular Christmas songs from their respective countries. Those who co...

Chapter 478: The God of Gold and Wealth

The third labyrinth was also located on an island.

Well, it could hardly be called an island anymore. From the sea, its coastline stretched endlessly, more akin to a continent. If Charlot Mecklenburg hadn’t calculated their route and confirmed that they were still in the Aggras Sea, he might have thought they had arrived at the New Continent.

Standing aboard the Radiant Holy Kingdom, Charlot gazed at the land. Its coastal areas were shallow sandy beaches, clearly unsuitable for ...

Chapter 477: His Joyful Expression, as if the Serpent of Fate Tapped His Shoulder

Charlot Mecklenburg was taken aback and asked, “Is that even possible?”

Juno Arthur shrugged. “Who’s to say it isn’t? How do you think I discovered that the Blood Ancestors started becoming predictable?”

Charlot glanced at the thousands of ghost ships still drifting on the ocean surface and suddenly felt how absurd it all was.

Yes, absurd indeed—and very much in the domain of the Evil Gods.

With a leap, Charlot jumped off the Radiant Holy Kingdom and spri...

“In the ancient times, during the era of myths and legends, a saying was passed down: ‘Heaven and Earth, profound and yellow.’”

The sacred will emanated an aloofness and supremacy as if overlooking the mortal realm from the clouds.

However, that faint trace of Celestial Sovereign Will stood above even the clouds, gazing down upon all living beings with an even greater indifference and cold majesty.

"Hmm?"

Within the sacred will came a subtle trace of surprise.

The next moment, the Celestial Sovereign Will for...

A palace official hurriedly knocked on the door and entered, bowing to Joseph and Count Mirabeau. “Your Highness, my lord, Her Majesty the Queen requests your immediate presence in the East Palace conference hall.”

“What’s the matter?” Count Mirabeau asked, sensing something amiss.

“There seems to be unrest breaking out in multiple regions…”

By the time Joseph and Mirabeau arrived at the conference ...

An emaciated old man wearing a thin linen coat dragged a malnourished child of about ten years old to the front of the grain depot official. Bowing his head and clutching his chest, he pleaded:
"Master, kind Master! Bread in the city is now selling for 22 sous per pound, and we can't afford it anymore… Please, have mercy and spare us some grain! Otherwise, we really won't survive!"

Typically, bread in Nice cost no more than 10 sous per pound. F...

In the town of Davaus, every household had lights on, and the Christmas trees, adorned with colorful lights, were constantly changing hues. Laughter and joy echoed from the houses.

The same was true for the Charle family. Charles had received an extraordinarily special gift: a horse.

It was a real horse. Djoka and Camille had been preparing for this day for half a month. They had bought Daniel, their neighbor's, st...
