The Goddess of Destiny had never set up a temple on earth, nor had she preached her teachings to anyone or any race. No one knew what she looked like, no one knew what her temper was like, and no one even knew what her name was. People only knew that there was a Goddess of Destiny in this world, and that she could manipulate fate.
At the thought that such a mysterious god had planned the divine war more than three hundred years ago, Beta felt his teeth ache. Although the gods were powerful, every god had their own weaknesses, and people could infer what she was good at from the miracles she had shown in the past.
That was why players could deal with the Goddess of the Forest, who was a god, because the Goddess of the Forest was afraid of fire.
However, no one knew what other special abilities the Goddess of Destiny had, let alone what kind of weaknesses she had, but the ability to manipulate fate alone was enough to make people wary.
Many people were not afraid of any suffering, nor were they afraid of death, but they were afraid of being manipulated like pawns, thinking that they were doing the right thing, but they didn't know that it was a bad thing. For them, that was something much more terrifying than death.
Beta was more worried about what had happened to the Persian cat and Whitey. They left a letter saying that the enemy was very powerful and didn't dare to show up. Was it because they were afraid of being caught by the Goddess of Destiny and taken to the orbit of fate?
He didn't know if his talent, Materialist, could resist the Goddess of Destiny's ability to manipulate fate. If it could, it might be able to help Blondie and Whitey in the future.
Seeing that Beta was deep in thought, the others didn't disturb him.
Emma continued to tease her flame imp, because she found that after the flame imp was contracted as a magic pet, it could actually speak the language of Hollevin. So she had been asking her little imp about the situation in the Realm of Devils, to see if she could get some useful information from it to help Beta.
After a while, Beta came back from his contemplation. He looked at the crowd and said, "Let's go back, there's no point in staying here. We've done what needs to be done, and what comes next isn't something we can handle. "
Everyone nodded in agreement. It was a city of devils. There was also a king who was suspected to be a Demigod, and this matter also involved the Demon God Phoenix. The few of them could barely be considered to have some status in the human world, but on the level of this battle between gods and devils, they were just nobodies. Getting involved was tantamount to courting death.
After resting for a while, Beta went outside, drew a magic array, and teleported to the outskirts of the Royal City.
Once again, he returned to the second prince's hiding spot.
Ignatsu was a little puzzled by the return of Beta and the others. "Didn't you say that you would be gone for about three days? It's only been a day, and you're already back?"
This question caused Beta and Emma's expressions to turn ugly. They hesitated for a moment, but after receiving Beta's affirming gaze, they immediately nodded. Emma told him everything that had happened.
After a long silence, Second Prince Ignatsu said with an incredulous expression, "A demon's city? Moreover, there was a suspected demigod-level powerhouse guarding the place? At the bottom of a mountain not too far from King City? "
These three consecutive questions revealed the indescribable shock in the second prince's heart. One could even feel a little fear in his heart.
Beta did not say anything. Emma telling the second prince about this was not very meaningful. Instead, it would affect his current mood, and it would not benefit him in the upcoming battle with the eldest prince. Of course. Emma was actually just too shocked. He felt uncomfortable holding this matter in his heart, and wanted to find a relative to talk about it.
The second prince, who was a little distracted, went to look for his Head Teacher to resolve his doubts, but unfortunately, he didn't. Unfortunately, not only did the mage not resolve his doubts or tell him what to do, but he also went to Beta to verify whether this matter was true.
After repeatedly confirming that Beta did not lie to him, even the mage fell into a state of confusion.
Humans had always kept a respectful distance from the devils. Moreover, the devils had attacked the human world several times, causing great harm to this world. Although every time the humans united with other races could drive the Devil Race back, every war, whether it was the humans or the other races, would suffer a great loss of vitality.
Moreover, the devils' city that was discovered this time was near King City, which meant that if the other party really attacked the human world, the first to suffer would be the Kingdom of Hollevin.
In this case, even if Ignatsu took down King City, what would be the point?
Beta could not give them an answer to such a question. Therefore, for the next two days, the second prince and his chief mage were in a state of confusion. This situation continued until an army appeared on the outskirts of King City.
After seeing this army, the confusion on the second prince's face completely disappeared, for no other reason than that the number of people in this army was very exaggerated. In a small army like Hollevin, a battle of a thousand against a thousand was already a top-level battle, but this army had at least ten thousand people.
To some extent, numbers could boost the courage of the cowardly.
The second prince sent out a contact scout, and it was easy to get in touch with several commanders of the army. They took their guards and quietly came to the second prince's hiding place to hold a pre-war meeting.
This army was a coalition of lords. There were seven commanders, six of whom were old, and one of whom was young.
The second prince looked at the people around him with great joy. They were now in an underground secret chamber built by the chief Great Mage. Apart from anything else, it was at least safe enough.
"Thank you very much for your support." The second prince stood up and bowed to everyone in turn. He lowered his attitude. "After we defeat the king slayer, I will fulfill everyone's wishes and will never go back on my word."
The six old men all nodded in satisfaction.
At this moment, the second prince said to the young man, "Moses, what is your wish? Your arrival is a pleasant surprise for me, a help given to me by the gods. "
This young man named Moses was plain-looking, a little lacking compared to the second prince Ignatsu, and in terms of temperament, he wasn't much. He was wearing a noble suit with golden stripes, which made the luxurious and noble attire look like a nouveau riche.
"Your Royal Highness." The young man stood up, his face full of joy that his wish was about to come true. "My request may be difficult for you, but I hope you can listen to me slowly."
The second prince frowned, then relaxed again. "Please speak."
"A year ago, when I was studying in the royal city, I accidentally saw Princess Emma, who was returning to the royal city to visit her parents." Moses' face was full of admiration. "At that time, I felt that I saw a goddess. She was so cute and charming. I don't expect her to marry me immediately, but I ask that Your Royal Highness give me a chance to get to know the little princess. "
In the royal city, there were at least six hundred if not a thousand young talents who wanted to marry Emma. Ignatsu was well aware of his little sister's charm. If it had been a few days ago, Moses would have immediately come to him. Not to mention a chance to get to know Emma, it wouldn't have been a problem for him to order Emma to marry him.
But now, there was a big problem.
Just a few days ago, he hinted that if Beta supported his plan, then he would marry Emma to him and give the wetlands to him.
Since he had already made a promise, then Moses naturally couldn't agree to this request of his. Otherwise, he would definitely offend Beta.
Beta was a Master-level spellcaster, and he also had powerhouses like Kail and Alice by his side. If it was just the three of them, there was nothing to be afraid of, but Alice's father was the strongest spear master and a hero who had stepped into the legendary level.
If he offended Beta, then it would definitely cause Alice's displeasure. After all, they were companions.
As long as Alice told this matter to her father and said a few bad things about him, then the half-elf legendary powerhouse would most likely abandon his neutral position and turn to support the eldest prince, the kingslayer.
Therefore, it was impossible for Second Prince Ignatsu to directly marry Emma to Moses, but he also couldn't let Moses leave. After all, they were going to attack the city soon, and he had to leave Moses' troops behind. After all, the more people there were, the more chances of winning.
Since he couldn't say it directly, he could only beat around the bush and say some slang that everyone understood. Ignatsu smiled and said, "Emma is still young and easily bewitched. Recently, she has been very close to a young man with bright golden hair, so I'm sorry I can't introduce Emma to you."
"There are some things that even if I agree to, you have to fight for it yourself."
The words of the nobles always had a hidden meaning. The six old men understood, and so did Moses. The second prince allowed him to pursue little princess Emma, but the other party gave very loose conditions for how to do it, so Moses planned to do it well and move the little princess.
Moses nodded, stood up, and said with a smile, "Then thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
At this time, Beta was training Joan Of Arc. This little thing was now level 10 like Beta, but according to the normal process, it would be a very complicated process of rest and growth. After all, Joan Of Arc was the first bird and a magic pet, so it was normal for her to level up faster.
However, Joan Of Arc was a little too lively.
Not only did she like to fly around in the air, but she also became very aggressive.
Just a few minutes ago, Joan Of Arc attacked a child, although she didn't really hurt the other party. But he didn't understand why Joan Of Arc would do that. After all, Joan Of Arc was not an ordinary stupid bird with no intelligence. She was a magic pet, and her intelligence was similar to that of humans.
When Beta was about to ask Joan why she attacked people, a young man walked up to Beta arrogantly with his guards.
