The Giant Stone Lighthouse had been restored, and its snow-white light swept over the entire area, everything as before.
The only difference was that beneath the brazier holding the Residual Fire, twenty names of sacrificed warriors were engraved.
The new warriors guarding the place told Rod that the combat group had already moved forward.
Rod immediately followed after them.
The combat group moved faster than he had imagined, with many strongholds lighting up along the way.
Plenty of warriors had already stationed themselves, and a large number of others were still arriving.
Humans were taking control of this land.
Soon, Rod saw a large cluster of flames in the forefront.
As he descended, he saw a large group of knights riding horses made of spiritual bodies, and a few priests dressed in intricate robes.
"Rod!"
A familiar voice called out.
Turning his head, he saw a fully armed knight galloping towards him on a tall warhorse.
