[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she learned that Annie could not join the Bloodfang Association, she did not insist on staying. The guilt had always been torturing her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It got even worse after she thought that Annie had died in the kingdom of Wolfheart. There were many sleepless nights that followed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the end, she vended her hatred on the nobility and presented a mask of power and fearlessness as a shell to cover up her remorse. But now, this shell could no longer protect her. She was instinctively fearful. If Annie refused to forgive her, what should she do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he stood in the doorway but did not dare to reach out to knock on the door.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I knew you would do that. A voice came out of nowhere and shocked her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She bowed down only to find out that the small figure of soft feathers had appeared beside her and a breathless nightfall was in the corridor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ify could not help but be touched that they had caught up with her because they seemed worried about her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time you encounter something that concerns Annie, you always behave like a completely different person. Did you all hear that? Of course. His majesty was speaking to you alone. How could we not eavesdrop?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The little girl curled her lips. In the case that he wanted to coerce you, we could help to stand guard at the door, right? What kind of help is that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, it was too late as the sound of footsteps could be heard behind the door.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a flash, if he felt herself tense up all over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With a click, the door was pushed open and a tall witch appeared in front of her. It happened to be Annie who opened the door. She will never forget this face.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Annie's eyes had a sharp gaze and her brows were slightly raised.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her compassion for her companions was hidden under her face of perseverance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ify had thought that she would never meet Annie again and had been afraid that she would soon forget Annie's appearance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she saw Annie again, she realized that everything was just like before and that her memory of Annie's figure was just temporarily covered in dust and now it was brand new again. Time seemed to stand still at this moment. Annie, I'm tired. Annie, you should go. Why can't Annie stay? No. I wanna be with Annie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fragments of memory continued to emerge in her mind and her outer shell collapsed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She seemed to have returned to the past and once again became that helpless and bewildered girl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She wanted to greet Annie, but somehow she could not make a sound.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As soon as she opened her mouth, her eyes felt a stinging sourness. Ify could not control this herself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she opened the door, she did not remember who the witch standing outside was and yet she felt some form of familiarity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only when the witch clutched Annie and apologized while weeping did she recall the journey to the Bloodfang Association.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be a lie to say that there was no resentment in her heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the Bloodfang Association tried to sell her to the nobility, a part of her anger from the betrayal also transferred onto Ify.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, seeing her crying so uncontrollably, Annie suddenly felt all the anger vanish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Back then, Ify was as thin as a monkey with a muddy face and a permanent timid look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would have been impossible for Ify to resist the orders of Bloodfang Association and stay above of everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Annie gave a deep sigh, extended her hands, and gently held Ify. I don't blame you anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Upon hearing this, Ify shuddered and started to cry even more loudly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over the next half an hour, if he was able to gradually pull herself together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throughout this time, Annie learned the whole story of the Bloodfang Association.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she learned that Earl Morgan was dead and the other witches were out of the control of the Bloodfang Association, the twist did not and the heart finally unraveled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was all due to Roland Wimbledon and his sister, Princess Tilly. Things seemed to be moving in the right direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Annie made up her mind after looking at Ify, who was sleeping in her arms after crying and a curious Amy, who was there with the other witches. Let's sign a contract with Wendy and serve the king.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Burying the black gunpowder and detonators took more time than Roland had expected, mainly because transporting barrels of gunpowder to a preset location outside the city wall was troublesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The snow that piled up to knee level had caused inconvenience to the movements of the carriage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Transportation had to be interrupted every time they encountered demonic beasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though Lotus was there to help dig trenches and fill them, it still took nearly a week before everything was properly arranged.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the buried gunpowder would be detonated by an electric detonator to ensure the best detonating effect. The principle was very simple.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since storage and transportation needn't be considered, the detonator would comprise of a small section within a sealed copper barrel and two wires.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The copper barrel would be filled with gun cotton and a thin copper wire would link the two wires to form a short circuit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the electric current passed through, the thin copper wire would be burned out and the surrounding flaming cotton would be detonated at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The detonated wire would be buried in the ground by lotus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Its depth was nearly 5 meters so that the root would not be damaged by ground artillery or demonic beasts even though it had no casing protection.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the end, all the wires would lead to the city wall's main control tower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any area could be detonated just by turning the corresponding hand crank generator.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hence, the preparation for the exercise was just missing a live target.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ahem, competition comes after friendship whilst hunting the demonic beasts in this exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Safety is the highest priority and no one is allowed to leave LEAF's surveillance area. Is that clear?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland stood on the city wall and turned toward the row of contestants that had lined up in front of him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In order to be fair and to reduce the burden on leaf, the participating witches form three groups with a total of six people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These groups were Sleeping Island's team consisting of Ashes and Andrea, Neverwinter's team with Lightning and Maggie, and Tequila's representatives, Phyllis and Agatha.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The crowd replied in unison, especially Andrea Quinn, who was full of energy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ever since she tasted Chaos drinks, Andrea, who came from one of the three big noble families of Kingdom of Dawn, had been obsessed with the unique taste of the Fire Dragon wine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She even hoped to use her one month's share of Chaos drinks in exchange for the very last barrel of the Fire Dragon wine that was half-filled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In response, Roland replied that everything could be allowed for the winner. The rules are really simple.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a time limit of one day, and whoever catches the most demonic beasts will emerge as number one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, only beasts that are trapped in the cage are counted. Roll unpointed to the iron cages below the city wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In addition, if someone is caught out of Leaf's area of surveillance, then her team will be immediately disqualified.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well then, the hunting of demonic beasts officially starts now. Oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As soon as his voice faded, Lightning and Maggie took the lead in the sky and flew toward Misty Forest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The remaining two teams could only rely on their legs to trek. Who do you think will win?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tilly asked with a cheerful smile after all the three teams had left the city wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their abilities aren't the strongest, but we are only counting the demonic beasts that are in cages, so speed is undoubtedly an advantage. Let's make a bet, brother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Though annihilating the enemy is easy for them, capturing the beasts alive would be much tougher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they want to transport the demonic beasts back smoothly, they would need to beat every beast half dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Far more energy would be spent when compared to just killing the target, so it could be difficult for them to win. This seemed to be a bet that Roland would win for sure. Okay, what are we betting on? If I win, ah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope that from now on, half of the revenue from the sales of chaos drinks can be used to reward those witches who have made outstanding contributions to urban development. Evelyn also came from the sleeping island.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since this practice would help attract even more witches, it was not a bad thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland was slightly startled and tilted his head to look at Tilly, but she did not seem to be joking. Really?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, said Tilly whose eyes flashed a hint of sliness. But you may not necessarily win. Let's wait and see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think so too, Nightingale whispered softly in his ear while she was in the mist. I forgot to tell you. Andrea's magic has cohered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a wild demonic boar approaching you that's 125 meters ahead from your left.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tree trunks started to sway and a string of snow clumps fell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rubbing sound of branches and green leaves made up Leaf's unique intonation. In this way, Leaf could talk to everyone and monitor them at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ashes rolled her eyes and removed her beloved sword, Messenger of Ashes from her back. I can already hear its footsteps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A moment later, a black figure appeared in the jungle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a demonized wild boar with roughly the size of an adult and grey tusks that were as thick as arms. Don't attack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hiss, hiss. The wild boar spit out clouds of white gas and stared with its bright scarlet eyes before rushing straight toward the blonde witch who provoked it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If ordinary hunters encountered this scenario, they certainly wouldn't think of confronting the boar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They would most likely climb up the nearest tree as quickly as possible or wait for a chance to escape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As to whether they could even survive the demonic beast's tusks would be a whole other story. But Andrea was motionless. She did not even take her beloved rifle down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She flattened her hands and opened her index finger and thumb to form a rhombus square.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Through the center of the square, she saw the boar was no more than ten steps away from her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Suddenly, a powerful airflow shot out from her palm and made an explosive roar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The demonic boar seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and its whole body was lifted off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The snow at its foot was swept away by airwaves and formed a dense white fog.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The demonic boar's huge body churned two rounds before it crashed to the ground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before any screams of agony could be heard, it was already vomiting blood and had fallen with its back flat on the ground with its twitching limbs facing the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was Andrea's new ability. By observing the difference between the bow and gun on top of being forced to study by Princess Tilly, she realized her evolutionary direction, since both abilities gave energy to arrows or projectiles. Why couldn't she not directly provide the magic needed to shoot energy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After more than two weeks of journey on the ship, she gradually mastered this new fighting skill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even if she did not have pellets in her hand, the impact alone could kill the enemy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this type of shooting skill was related only to her magic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Its power far exceeded the previous shot and was more like a bow and flintlock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When all the magic was released in one go, the projection could hurt even her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you're strong, she said flatly, this is a team competition, and naturally we'll need to work together. Don't forget that we represent the honor of Sleeping Island.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If we lose the match because you were too slow when moving the beasts, I'll report you to Princess Tilly. Overwhelming victory. Nightingale, did you see that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Andrea looked proudly toward ashes and felt an immense satisfaction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ashes looked displeased yet had no choice but to bend over and carry the unconscious demonic boar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, Andrea would not be able to move such a heavy thing. Stay here and don't move.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll be right back, said the extraordinary Deandrea as she placed the sturdy demonic boar rack on her shoulder. I know. Hurry up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Andrea thought for a moment and said, hm, that's about 900 paces away. I'm going to head off. Could you please let Ashes know my new location?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even the gigantic demonic hybrid she met last time was defenseless in front of her new abilities. The original magic arrows were incredibly powerful, but only had a range of 10 paces.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now as long as she had enough power, she could shoot to a distance of more than 100 meters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She even had a derivative skill that allowed her to hit accurately without fail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis looked at Agatha who was walking in front of her and said, I only casually agreed to it at that time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When Phyllis first heard about the proposal, she did not think too much about it because she had lost her palette and the chaos drinks were no longer appealing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What made her agree to it was simple curiosity. Anyway, it was better than being idle and she could take the opportunity to observe the witch union's fighting ability.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She did not expect that this hunting game was actually a competition and that her teammate would be Agatha, once the youngest senior witch. It doesn't matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is much better than staying cooped up in the lab and researching the magic stone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's good to go out and get some exercise, said Agatha, shrugging her shoulders.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I didn't have time to spare, I wouldn't have promised His Majesty in the first place. Is that so?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then, shall we just grab a few demonic beasts to make up the figures? How could we do that? This is a competition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I thought the king of the common people said that friendship was first and that competition came second. The others also agreed to it. I don't think that's what they really feel. You could tell from their expressions what they were thinking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even without the Chaos drinks as prizes, Lightning and Andrea would still be unwilling to lose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha paused and said, if it's just a normal game, then that doesn't matter. But now we're a team that represents Tequila, right? Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis suddenly felt that Andrea was full of fighting spirit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that case, if it's a competition then we need to win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha paused in her footsteps and some crystals condensed in her hand. Leaf's voice could be heard almost simultaneously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A Wolf Eagle Demonic Hybrid is 200 meters behind you and approaching quickly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis retreated two steps and looked behind toward the snow-white forest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A slender white-haired monster appeared in the snow with a howl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Its wings glided as if it were sliding on the ground, and the beast made almost no sound.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was no wonder Phyllis did not notice the enemy approaching from behind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the temperature near Agatha plummeted, the snow suddenly became hard ice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the enemy approached, she threw the sharp ice crystals in her hand to force the hybrid to dodge and then caused it to lose its balance on the smooth ice, the senior which remained stable on the ground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She effortlessly glided to the side of the monster, placed her hands on its fur, and instantly turned it into half an ice sculpture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis admired Agatha's flowy, uninhibited way of fighting and could see why she was a part of Tequila.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although Agatha was a member of the Quest Society and had never experienced a real battle, she could still see that Agatha had put in a lot of hard work and combat training.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I summon a thin piece of ice at my feet that could help me to detect the enemy as soon as it entered the snow. I see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She looked at the mixed species whose body had been covered with ice crystals, except for its head that was hanging out. Should I drag it now to the city wall? Just leave it here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since it won't freeze to death that quickly, we can wait until we catch a few more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha waved her hand and said, we have to find the next demonic beast as soon as possible. Phyllis realized that she was serious. This young senior witch did want to win the competition. Is it because she represents Tequila?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in the future negotiations, will her loyalty lie with Neverwinter or the Tequila survivors? This question left Phyllis feeling uneasy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She only took a few steps before she could not resist saying, Lady Agatha. Don't address me like that. Just call me Agatha, she said as she turned her head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't you say that the tequila witches were no longer ranked in terms of ability but that everyone was equal? Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Neither the higher ascendants at the Union nor the most common original witches should ever be separated by rank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Pasha who suggested every witch is equally important, and I'm no exception.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see, Phyllis hesitated and said, Can I ask you a question?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What exactly do you think of the tequila witches in Neverwinter? I guess you wish to find out which side I'm loyal to. Agatha said as she stopped in her tracks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's right. So I hope you'll be able to move to the western region of Grey Castle and join hands with Neverwinter in the fight against the demons under the leadership of Roland Wimbledon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only the occasional wind brushing against the tree tops could be heard. Phyllis was silent for a long time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought you would stand by tequila, she said reluctantly, you were willing to represent the tequila witches in the competition and willing to help. Her voice quickly lowered. That's right. I shouldn't impose too much. This is just a game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Compared with the Tequila Quest society who had ostracized her, Neverwinter that saved her life was certainly more trustworthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in Agatha's eyes, they might still not be legitimate successors of tequila.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, they have lost the possibility of exerting magic after converting to the God's punishment army.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, Agatha's next sentence rekindled her hope. I'm a tequila witch and this won't change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha's voice was smooth and honest as if she were recounting a most simple statement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then why do you think we should accept the leadership of a common person? Phyllis felt sincerely puzzled. Tequila


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Starfall City, Arietta, or the dozens of cities on the Feral Plains all unanimously decided to accept the leadership of the Union simply because the Union was established by witches. Agatha sighed softly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you forget the original purpose as to why the Union was set up? The Union's original.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, it was to defeat the demons and it had nothing to do with whether one was a common person or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After the first battle of Divine Will, the witches diminished the authority of the common people and unified the fertile plains, only because they were too weak and their cooperation couldn't help to resist the demon in any way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now the common people have shown their power, so if we serve the Union and roll in Wimbledon, what difference would that make?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only he can unite the secular regime and at the same time accept the witches of this era.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha's words flashed like a bolt of lightning across her mind. Phyllis realized that she had apparently misunderstood something and the newly emerging idea astonished her. Do you mean? Neverwinter would be the new union.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'd be a part of the union, Agatha corrected and said. Of course, His Majesty may not like the name.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But no matter what it's called in the future, its essence is still the same. In order to win over the gods, Tequila, Starfall City, the Witch Cooperation Association, the Sleeping Island, and the secular kingdoms will unite to fight a bloody battle against the demons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not a question of where my loyalty lies, but a question of being able to continue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only reason I was able to survive the frozen coffin was to see the day the demons would be defeated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was why she replied that she was faithful to her own belief. Phil has finally understood Agatha's ideas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha hoped to win the competition on behalf of Tequila, yet this was not a conflict with her serving role in Wimbledon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just as 400 years ago, all the cities of Feral Plains were loyal to the Union.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only difference was that the leader of the new alliance had changed from the three chiefs to one common person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your assessment of him is really high, she said in a rather complex mood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the goal was only to defeat the demons, we're also constantly working on it, and the situation will be reversed once we find the chosen one. But we haven't found it yet, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or in other words, we have found an unexpected chosen one knot. Agatha started to chuckle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rest assured, if there's such a witch, his majesty will certainly not stop you from ending the battle of divine will. In fact, he'll only help you to find her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is why I hope you'll move to the western region of Grey Castle. The witches who choose to settle here will surely increase, and you'll have more chances to find the chosen one, won't you? Phyllis found herself being convinced.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even if she didn't want to admit it, Agatha did make sense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The truth is he's really able to stop the demons. Do you really have faith in the common people?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think I can expect it from a common person who connects the witches and all the common people together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha raised the corner of her mouth and said, Isn't His Majesty preparing a gunfire exercise for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After it's finished, maybe you'll be able to understand where my belief comes from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The so-called artillery exercises should showcase the key to what she calls art.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although it was unclear whether the two had anything to do with combating the demons, but since the genius senior which already said so, she decided to look forward to it as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just then, a string of loud roars came through the forest, causing the branches to tremble. Ow, ow. Phyllis's expression changed suddenly. She was familiar with this sound. It was obviously the hissing of the flying devil beast. Why are there demons here? It's Maggie, said Agatha, curling her lips.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her evolved ability is becoming anything that can fly, and the Demon is no exception.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis let out a sigh of relief when she realized it was caused by magic ability. But soon she frowned again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this case, it's too easy for her to seize the demonic beasts, isn't it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lower-breed demonic beasts were senseless, so it was easy for them to surrender to more powerful creatures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the face of the flying devil beast, they would only be scared motionless on the spot and be easy prey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not to mention that transporting prey from the air was much faster than dragging it from the snow. So how could Phyllis and Agatha win? Don't worry. Agatha seemed to have looked through her thoughts. We're not without a chance. Maggie's ability is really convenient.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But neither she nor lightning, nor all the witches here, have ever withstood the rigors of combat training.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In other words, they can't use their magic power to its fullest ability.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whilst Agatha was talking, a black shadow flew over her head. Grabbing a wild demonic toward the direction of the city wall, we can see that her stature was staggering. Even the adult devil beast would be much smaller than her. Are you saying... Maggie won't be able to last until sunset?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Devil Beast's breath is too strong and will expel and advance all the prey in the area of activity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In that case, she will most likely change into the pigeon and join lightning together to search for targets, and then suddenly evolve into devil beasts to capture the demonic beasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Change is a very exhausting process of magic and once her magic power is depleted, it's difficult to rely on lightning alone to maintain the efficiency of capturing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha smiled and said, so the next demonic beast will be attacked by you and I'll only be responsible for holding it down. Phyllis's eyes brightened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For them, learning how to squeeze their potential was a required strategy of combat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At this point, the newly promoted senior witches were indeed no different from the fledgling newcomers. Yes, leave it to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chapter 720 The Competition Results in Admission Ceremony.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just as Agatha had anticipated, it was uncommon to hear Maggie's carefree roar in the afternoon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When a witch was engaged in fighting, their highly tense mind would consume not only their magic power, but also their physical strength.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, the Union concentrated on the key points needed to make the best use of the fighter's time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Allowing her to relax her mind and restore her physical strength during combat training.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, when the demons came and swung them, only by relying on reasonable shifts and cooperation would they be able to survive on the battlefield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This meant that while Phyllis was urging and luring the demonic beasts, Agatha would take the opportunity to rest some until several beasts had been gathered together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They took a quick break at noon, only eating dry food with snow for lunch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After Agatha managed to freeze three or four beasts, she would then shape the snow into a smooth ice track that would slide their captures to the western region's city wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the sky dimmed and became grey, Leaf informed them that the competition had ended.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they returned to the starting line, they were surprised to find that there were dozens of demonic beasts trapped in wooden cages.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The number of caged demonic hybrid beasts had increased to around 30.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The biggest one among them was a wolf-bear demonic hybrid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was almost as tall as the wall, with limbs as thick as stone pillars, and it was so strong that even a god's punishment soldier and devil beast were unlikely to defeat it. Which team caught that one?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis's face barely changed, even as feelings of loss flooded her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, they had done their best. 22 small-sized and medium-sized demonic beasts. A score that she had thought would be high enough to stand out. But now it seemed that their score might be at the bottom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How are the other two teams able to catch so many demonic beasts?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wendy walked in front of them, relieved to see everyone safe. You've all worked hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could it be that the remaining 80 beasts were caught by the two members from the sleeping island?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's all Maggie's fault, Lightning said, touching her forehead. If she didn't leave halfway through to steal eggs from the nest of a winter hawk and then spend two hours roasting them, we would have caught a few more. It was you who let me go coo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The pigeon perched on Lighting's head grumbled her grievance. Not to mention, you ate more roasted eggs than me. What's more, you even wanted some bird beak mushrooms, saying that eggs would taste better with mushrooms' coo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nevermind. It's okay as long as all of you come back safely. Well, next is Sleeping Island. 15 points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ashes, you really are a fighter. Wendy continued.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She just ran the captures for us. Andrea griped. I was the one who knocked down the beasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Too bad that we came across so few monsters on our way. Besides, she didn't run fast enough. Ashes shot her a petulant look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why don't you try carrying those demonic boars back and forth, fifteen times, in the snow?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Muscular barbarians are more suitable for this kind of job. They are better than someone so delicate and fragile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You, ahem, Wendy quickly interrupted the growing dispute. The last is Tequila's team with a total of 22 points.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, Phyllis was very startled. There are clearly hundreds of cages containing demonic beasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, Leaf caught them along the way. Wendy said waving her hand while smiling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the person in charge of the witch union said this, every participant automatically turned their eyes to the green haired witch standing beside them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After that, I thought that since the beasts were already trapped in a vine trap, I could simply drag all of them to the edge of the forest and add more targets for his majesty. Suddenly, everyone fell silent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alone she had caught more beasts than the three competing teams combined.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Moreover, she had done it while keeping watch over the competition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one had ever considered that there would be a combat which that powerful hiding among the higher ascendants in the witch union.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Suddenly, she felt that winning the competition wasn't as important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The following day, Neverwinter finally finished all of the preparation necessary for the artillery exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When Roland arrived at the West Wall, the top of the wall was packed with 2,000 citizens in their sold-out seats, eagerly waiting to watch the exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Edith, 80% of the seat holders were former residents of Border Town.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This clearly showed that spending two silver royals to participate in an activity where the king was present no longer posed a financial burden for the locals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The western region's weather seemed to accommodate the exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After a long night of heavy snowfall, it had stopped at the break of dawn and the howling northern wind had eased as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The vast field to the west of the city wall seemed to be covered with a layer of silver-white carpet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rotted track marks and footprints left behind from carrying the demonic beasts had been covered by the snow, making the ground appear clean and untouched.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The demonic beasts, being the targets, had undoubtedly caught the attention of the audience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The more brutal demonic hybrid beasts had been lined in the rows closest to the attendees.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was obvious that that being able to witness these mighty monsters being turned into a bloody pulp under the heavy artillery fire would bring them unparalleled enjoyment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A sweet revenge for the residents of Neverwinter who had suffered so much during the months of demons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The smaller beasts were meant to be fodder for the embedded gunpowder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, in Roland's opinion, the number of beasts was more important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the last row, the cages that trap demonic beasts lined up with a length up to 330 feet, waiting for the most resplendent blaze.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Iron Axe climbed up the wall and reported loudly, Your Majesty, the artillery battalion for the 1st Army is ready.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland exhaled a white breath and turned around to look at Echo, who was standing beside him, play the parade march song. Yes, Your Majesty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the magic power spread from Echo's fingers, the familiar resonance instantly rang out across the wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though Roland had heard this song before, since it was practiced over and over on the school's sports days, his heart still skipped a beat once the melody echoed in the air of Neverwinter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was as if the song had the power to bolster him as he waited for the soldier's arrival.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The people who had been chatting were hushed and they all turned their eyes towards the end of the long street that was near the city wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There they saw a team of soldiers, in uniform, marching up the street towards their positions in an orderly manner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland remembered the first time he experienced the months of demons two years ago when the city had been like a palm-sized land.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People with less than two months training had to fight against demonic beasts on the rubble-built cement wall with lances and spears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At that time, even a common demonic hybrid could put the militia into a frenzy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, now, they would remain calm and composed while faced with a higher level challenge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The seemingly powerful demonic beasts had now become the targets that will help to declare the strength of Neverwinter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The apparent contrast made Roland extremely excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the soldiers slowly climbed up the wall through the gentle slopes, a euphoric applause broke out among the crowd wave after wave, almost as if it would never stop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knew there was no need for him to make a speech at the moment. Everyone was waiting expectantly for the melodious roar of artillery.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, Roland just loudly announced, let the artillery exercise begin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Furlan Eltec was quite surprised seeing the parade of the soldiers of the First Army climb up the wall in order.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Known as the Star Knight of the Western Region, he was naturally familiar with the training of knights, and knew how difficult it was to ensure that people kept order while marching in a group.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whether for knights or mercenaries, when they were under a lord's purview, their numbers in each row would be no more than five. For if the horizontal line became too long, it would be very easy to become disordered, giving the audience whose seats were far away the sight of a messy eyesore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In general, the difficulty of keeping order increased exponentially with the number of soldiers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But in this group, the number of soldiers was over 100, with more than 10 soldiers in each column and row, and all of them were in uniforms of the same color with bright ribbons diagonally across their chests, making them look like a moving square.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This visual impact gave Furlan an unstoppable momentum. Once the formation was maintained, the advantage of keeping a large group became most incisive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This could also be seen from the enthusiastic response of the crowds around him. Look at the third row. There is my boy. They're marching in such good order. All of them look like one person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If two armies are confronting each other on the battlefield, I'm afraid that the enemies will be frightened out of their wits just by seeing this kind of formation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hah, I think they'll be fleeing just on hearing the name of his majesty. What's the name of this song? I don't know, but... I feel full of strength. That's the effect made by Miss Echo's magic power.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a pity that Mae couldn't witness this, Irene said, holding the arm of morning light.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If she were here seeing it, she'd surely have been able to reproduce the exciting scene in the drama. She's pregnant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, she can't stand on the city wall in the chilly wind with you, Furlan shook his head and said with a smiling face. Rest assured that you'll definitely get another chance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I bet there will be more and more activities like this in the future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both the review of knights and artillery exercises were the means for the Lord to show his power.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The current strength accumulated in Neverwinter was beyond everyone's imagination.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was no doubt that His Majesty was capable of conquering more territories.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With such a troop, it would not be surprising that he could even take all of the four kingdoms under his dominion when the time came.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He realized that even if his father did not say the words at that time, he would not be a teacher for his whole life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If he really liked books, he would not have decided to be a knight at the very beginning and would not have done his best to earn the reputation, the well-known morning light. The army was the best place for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wanted to join the first army and become his majesty's sword, to fight for the king and to play a role in expanding the kingdom's territory to an unprecedented scale.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although his majesty had said that he, a knight who had surrendered, would have no chance to pick up a weapon again, there were other ways to join the first army, according to his father.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wondered to what extent his majesty's advisor department had developed now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He watched the artillerymen entering the shooting positions as if he had seen himself in the future. The music stopped. This was an indication to be ready for the firing. Vanner gave the order to take aim.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Six Longzong cannons that were set at the widened area of the city wall dropped the barrels to point at the cages 300 meters away, a distance to which shells would keep flying straight to the target without falling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The mortar team he was in charge of was aiming at a large wolf-bear hybrid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The beast probably had felt a gloomy foreboding and was struggling to get rid of the shackles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The huge body crashed hard against the bars, making the cage shake constantly. Be serious, Vanner frowned and warned. This isn't the usual training. Everyone is watching us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a little nervous, Cat's Claw said, his voice a bit stiff. Being stared at by so many people makes me wanna pee. Many members at the scene shared the same feeling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's more uncomfortable than confronting the duke's knightage before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you miss the target, you'll be laughed at by all of the citizens. Just do it as you did in the previous exercise. No more nonsense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vanirshot Cat's Claw Glance. Remember not to mistake the live shell with the headless shell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If something goes wrong, detention will be waiting for you. Now load.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After entering the loading process, everyone at the spot suddenly got busy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No matter how they felt now, they had been so familiar with the procedure after the long period of training that they would be able to complete it even with their eyes closed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The loading of the 152mm Longsong cannon was much faster than the 12 pound field artillery cannon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all of the six cannons were ready, Iron Axe's voice of countdown was heard from the top of the wall. Ten, nine, eight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the same time, the noise of the audience came to an abrupt end, as if everyone was waiting for the moment when the muzzles burst out flames and thunder. But Vanner was unexpectedly calm in his heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking at the demonic beasts roaring crazily in the cages, he recalled the days four years ago when his younger brother had died of famine and cold in his arms, when he had practiced day and night for eating one more egg, when he had fought the demonic beasts on the rubble-built city wall with pikes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had only been an ordinary miner in the old street of Border Town.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But even so, he did not expect things to come to this state today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Vanner secretly turned his head and looked at the grey-haired man in the distance, Roland Wimbledon, who had made him calm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the same time, six Longsong cannons spewed out long flames and green smoke, accompanied by the huge boom that turned the snow on the wall into flying white mist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Within a blink of an eye, the shells shot across the distance of 300 meters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When people heard the deafening bombarding bang, the shells had dropped in front of the hybrid demonic beasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The compressed fuse triggered the double-bass gunpowder in the warhead. Blasting away six mud pillars in a flash and smashing the wooden cages, the beasts' seemingly sturdy bodies were like paper swirling in front of rampant waves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The flakes of wood mingled with hot and bloody flesh were flying straight up into the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Meanwhile, intestines and broken limbs scattered all around. The crowd suddenly burst out fanatic cheers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Roland's plan, the firing would not stop once it had started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first five rounds of the volley turned around 20 beasts in the first row into ashes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then, in the free shooting time, the rapid firing, emptying ammunition, paired with the ignition of black powder, created a grand roaring momentum.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thus, as the firing continued to ring out, the atmosphere created by this scene ushered in a new upsurge.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The frequent blasts created a cloud of almost endless dust that made the surrounding 1,500 foot radius look like an impending doomsday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Occasionally a ricocheting stone would crush a cage and if the beast survived it would flee, choosing to run away, instead of rushing to the wall. Fear had overridden their bloodthirsty instincts. However, only a few would escape this land of the dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The strong waves radiating from underground had already begun to rupture their guts, deafen their ears and blind their eyes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most of the fleeing beasts did not make it far before they fell back to the ground, where they were devoured by the continuing explosives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The witches from Wolfheart stare at Andrea, eyes wide with shock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At that time there were only two cannons, but we still had hundreds of flintlock gun and iron cannons of a smaller sizes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The enemy wasn't demonic beasts in cages, but the men of God's punishment army who were fast and strong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the moment when the battle was most fierce, the bullets were flying all around the entire battlefield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If anyone were to poke their head out from the cover, they would definitely get themselves killed. That was a real battle. Amy looked shocked, really? No wonder the church lost the battle. Heroes side, it's beyond any human being's skills. Aren't you afraid of seeing such a scene? Broken Sword looked admirably at Andrea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Andrea smoothed down her billowing hair during an interval between the explosions and said, Of course, you'll become accustomed to it after you've seen more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have witnessed the whole process of a battle and personally killed two soldiers of the God's punishment army.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She had completely forgotten that she had been as just shocked and astonished by the scenes of battle when she climbed up the city wall for the first time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seemed that she now regarded Neverwinter as her second home and she couldn't even control her feeling of pride when she was talking about its weapons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most of the witches only stood there watching the show. However, Phyllis observed the events more carefully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the demonic beasts in the first row were bombarded, she didn't care too much. Mad demons from this distance would also threaten the soldiers on the wall with their spears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the common people were confronted with the bone spears, that dropped from above as violently as a mighty storm. How long would they be able to hold their defenses against the enemy even though their weapons, the so-called Longsong Cannon, were dramatically more powerful?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, when they turned their fire to the second row of cages, her expression changed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was that the common king's reasoning for arranging the beasts in this manner? So he could gauge the canon range?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The last row of cages was over 3000 feet from the wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the Longsong Cannon was able to hit that area, it meant that the cannon had a shooting range that rivaled that of the Siege Beasts, with a much higher levality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Siege Beast had always been the most troublesome demon weapon for the Union.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This weapon has a striking distance that is farther than any mangonel or ballista.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which made the witches have no choice but to rely on Transcendence to lead the Blessed Army to charge into the enemy's position.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this way, even if they succeeded in crushing the siege beasts, they would not be able to avoid a large number of casualties.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, if they had a long-range striking weapon like this, it wouldn't be impossible for them to successfully defend the holy city of Tequila.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After she asked Ice Witch this question, she just shook her head and smiled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Setting the target 3,000 feet away was only to meet the needs of the audience because a target further away would affect the view of the exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to his majesty, the shooting range for the new cannon was over six miles. Ten times further than its present range, Agatha turned her head to whisper in Phyllis's ear. In other words, it could hit somewhere out of the manipulator's sight. Ten times? Phyllis was astonished.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although she did not quite understand what foot and mile meant, a distance that was 10 times that of the current range could cover some of the demon's outposts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did that mean if the cannons were placed on the wall of tequila, the shells could directly hit the demon's lair? How is that possible?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How could they ensure that the weapon would hit an enemy that's out of our view?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha noticed her abstraction and continued to elaborate, but to hit a target so far away is not easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It requires a lot of calculation and improvement of the aiming equipment, and I've heard that the astrologers are working on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It appears that His Majesty intended to write a shooting range list from which they will be able to calculate the location where the shell will hit on the basis of the pre-launch data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Through this method, the shell should hit the enemy precisely even if it is thousands of feet away. Are you sure? Phyllis clenched her teeth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Doesn't that mean that as long as we make a few more cannons, the demons won't even be able to get near the city wall?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, his majesty said that this kind of strike would be called a scrubbing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha shrugged and said, probably a name pulled from the idea of scrubbing dirty things on the ground.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a little hard to pronounce, but it sounds very appropriate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis hesitated for a second before whispering close to Agatha's ear, air. Can you make the canons?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha looked at her for a moment and waited for a new round of explosions to pass before saying,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did provide some of the materials in the shell, however, it takes way more than two people to make it. Even witches? Far from enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you know how many common people work in the chemical plant of Neverwinter? Nearly 2,000 people and the number is still growing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Agatha side, but what they do there is no more than make explosives from acids, greases, and gases, while the production of a cannon is a completely different system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The necessary mine and smeltery have more than 3,000 people working in them. The processing plant has over 1,500 workers and corresponding technicians to maintain and operate the finished product.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many common people did we have that could work for us even in the tequila age?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After Arietta and Starfall City fell, one after the other, the human beings' territory retreated to the corner of the plains with a plummeting population.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the time tequila became the last shelter for all people, the number of the common people controlled by the union was a mere 30,000 to 40,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, they were playing the role of supporting the combat witches, logistics, and keeping the city on course, etc. It would be impossible to find enough people to manufacture the Longsom cannons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Agatha didn't lie to her, even the witches of Tequila at that time were unable to make it, let alone the ones who had been struggling to survive in the underground maze. Suddenly, the booms from the cannon stopped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The demonic beasts in the first two rows had completely merged with the snow, turning into puddles of blurred flesh and blood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An unearthly silence hung over the wall, and no one there spoke.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone was staring at the furthest cages as if they were waiting for something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis looked quizzically at Agatha who just smiled back at her. The key is coming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before Agatha finished speaking, a bright light radiated from the ground, glimmering like a shining sun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was no sun in the months of demons, which was something that had not changed for thousands of years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The sky was always like a gloomy dark curtain where the snow was invariably flying and swirling in the wind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People barely notice the difference in the weather other than the intensity of the snow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the weather today, that only one or two occasional snowflakes drifted down might be regarded as a sign that the snow had stopped.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most of the time, the white snow would swarm the entire sky. The heavy fall of snow would float and cover the whole land at all times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Therefore, this white light was particularly eye catching under such a background.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The moment it broke out of the earth, the glow brightened the surrounding snow in an instant, as if the entire grey world was lit up slightly. Phyllis could not help but hold her breath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her gaze was fixed on the light in this moment, when everything seemed swift and yet slow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the light dimmed quickly and turned into an orange fireball, the ground 1000 meters away from the wall was rooted up. This was not an illusion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She clearly saw the flat snow field rising upwards and forming a soft arc as if the land under the snow was not made of soil and rocks but made of water that could randomly change its shape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the top of the arc, the red fireball was rising as if it wanted to get rid of the shackles of the earth. It succeeded. The next scene happened almost in the blink of an eye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Smoke and clouds of dust and flames erupted from the ground and tore the curved surface into pieces.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fireball skyrocketed, along with billows of black smoke rising tens of meters high, spreading a high wall that almost obscured the original light of the sky in Phyllis's vision.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both the cages and demonic beasts turned into ashes in front of the fireball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis subconsciously clutched Agatha, to whom she moved her lips and wanted to say something but was blocked by the coming airflow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The people on the city wall also reeled from the blowing and did not come to themselves until a long while later.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, stunned by this scene, have forgotten to cheer and applaud.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Swallowing, she had never thought that common people had mastered such a terrible force nowadays.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even a senior demon could not survive in such a turbulent underground fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The red sun was dimming, leaving only a few scarlet flames looming in the dark smoke, but the billowing smoke had shot up to Madeira as if it connected the clouds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The specks of dirt and demonic beasts pieces that had been blown up into the sky now dropped like a rain of blood and dirt in the surrounding snowfield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking at this scene, Phyllis finally understood where Agatha's confidence came from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With this earth-shaking power, common people would even have the opportunity to contend with brutal demons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But she still could not understand why Roland Wimbledon would call it art. Was the explosion art? She wondered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Retinine was completely intoxicated by the cold wind that was filled with the smoke of gunpowder. The boom of the blast thoroughly awakened his desire. This was chemistry. This was the real chemistry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He looked to his companions beside him, the former chief alchemist of King's City, Rayleigh, along with Archer, whose eyes, he noticed, were shining with the same light, which was irreconcilable with their aging looks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He vaguely remembered that last time he showed this kind of radiance was when he was enrolled in the alchemic workshop as a disciple at the age of 10.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Retnin felt that he finally found the goal to which he would devote his whole life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was to attract everyone's attention like the sun. Only chemistry could help him achieve this goal. Unfortunately, he was nearly 50 years old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How nice it would be if he had seen this scene 20 years earlier and understood the real power of chemistry ahead of time, which was not flames and fumes given off from the burning of rough snow powders, but the pure light and heat. Fortunately, he finally knew it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looking at the stunned astrologers beside him, Retnin could not help smiling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since then, the Lore of Sage would only record one name, while the other would soon be forgotten completely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wanted to let everyone experience the power of explosions to make them praise the greatness of chemistry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He could not hold back his urge to start more experiments.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had so many chemically explosive plans and intermediate chemistry to try. What are we waiting for? Let's apply for a lab from Kyle Cichi. That's what I'm thinking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The three alchemists spoke out their ideas and suggestions at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Retinine gave the column of smoke that lingered in Madeirawan last look and then walked swiftly towards the laboratory. Now do you understand why I want you to stay in Neverwinter? Edith fumbled Cole's head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The latter was silent for a long time before asking in a husky voice, for this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Clearly, he was really frightened by the formidable force of the explosion, with his face still being pale and one hand clutching his sister's arm. For no one can withstand Roland Wimbledon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Edith said slowly, the aristocrats, though holding their titles and lands, mean nothing compared with this kind of power. He would make a kingdom in any way he wants it to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When he ordered the abolition of the nobility, those aristocrats should have handed over their lands and rights. But it's a pity that most people still haven't realized it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although she regarded it as a pity, the Pearl of the Northern Region showed no expression of pity, rather she showed a feeling of gloating. Cole Camp pouted his lips. We are aristocrats too. But we're no longer titled aristocrats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Edith said, taking her younger brother to the edge of the wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that people were gradually leaving the city wall and the area had become much more spacious, coal could clearly see the dark burned ground far away as if it had been plowed severely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Edith continued to say, aristocrats are respected for their wealth and power, not the pieces of land under their feet, which means the nobility won't truly disappear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just like this plane, whether its surface is broken or neat, snow covered or grassy, its nature won't change. Neverwinter is the starting point of the new era.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want to be an aristocrat in this era, you have to integrate yourself into the new rules set by His Majesty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a moment, Cole felt he had seen and not seen the point at the same time, but he still nodded under his sister's commanding manner accumulated over the years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll stay here and no longer argue for going back to the northern region. That's right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't you think its far more interesting in exploring new rules and new forces than running pieces of immutable land? Cole looked up at her sister's pretty profile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her long hair was blowing, like the silkiest satin in the northerly wind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Her long, narrow eyelashes tilted up, accented with her elegant curve of nose and lips, giving a sight of unspeakable beauty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only thing that puzzled him was the flush on Edith's face. Something that women would have when they were excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is my sister interested in the skyrocketing column of smoke? Cole doubted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cole turned away his eyes, hiding his doubt deeply in his heart.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After the exercise, Phyllis once again came to Roland's castle accompanied by Agatha.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When they entered the office, she noticed that Roland Wimbledon wore the same expression as he had last time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did not show any self satisfaction, as if the exercise was nothing but an insignificant matter in his eyes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, Phyllis felt that the importance of this common person sitting behind a mahogany table had apparently grown a lot. She unconsciously addressed him with honorifics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your majesty, please allow me to ask you a few questions before contacting the tequila witches. Go ahead. Roll unknotted. Can the weapons you demonstrated be mass produced?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Phyllis's view, if the plan of seeking the Chosen One did not work out well, the war against demons would undoubtedly last many years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the production of this weapon really required nearly 10,000 common people and the output could not meet their needs, Neverwinter would still be faced with a hard war.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By that time, she would be able to strive for more positions for the tequila survivors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After all, a force of about 100 gods punishment warriors controlled by witches was definitely formidable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the Longsong cannons could not stop the siege beasts that came from all directions, Roland would have to rely on them to break through the tight encirclement. Roland smiled and gave the answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first thing I must point out is that the Longsong Cannon isn't merely a defensive weapon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may look too heavy to be carried by manpower or livestock, but for some vehicles, carrying them is no longer a problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She had heard from Agatha earlier that His Majesty often said some awkward sounding new words, most of which were straightforward, and that if she did not understand, she could ask directly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Generally, the king would be very happy to answer the questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As expected, Roland rubbed his hands and said it would be anything that can carry the cannons, such as the simplest three-masted big sailing ship, which can be regarded as a vehicle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But such like big ships can only sail in the swirling sea. I'm just giving you an example. There will be a freewheeling vehicle on land in the future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Neverwinter has already embarked on developing such a vehicle, though it can do much more than simply carrying a cannon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But from the king's statement, it seems not to be prepared for cannons specifically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just as Phyllis wanted to ask some more, Roland went on, as for the output, after a new generation of processing tools is commonly used, I believe the cannons will cover all the walls of the border in a year or two. Phyllis secretly gasped at the answer. Covering all the walls of the border in a year or two?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even manganelle and ballista cannot be produced in such a large number in such a short period of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If so, it will be hard for the tequila survivors to play a role here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To Phyllis, it was an answer that disappointed and satisfied her at the same time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Perhaps their positions would be lower than other witch organizations, but it was always good to have less casualties in war.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, in light of her previous experiences, she decided not to question him but rather to change the subject. I understand, your majesty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My second question is, I noticed during the artillery exercise that the last explosion was not caused by the Longsong cannon. I'm wondering if it's your most lethal weapon?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When she asked, Phyllis noticed a strange smile appear on Roland's face before he answered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Judging from the technology we've mastered, it can only be counted as the simplest one. The simplest one, she said in astonishment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can make a weapon that could create a more violent explosion? There's no end in the development of explosion. Roland shook his head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The current level of weaponry Neverwinter possesses can be viewed as the second level. The third level will be better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She instinctively wanted to consider this statement as nonsense. Crush a city in one go? No common people or witches can have this kind of power. Only deities can do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when she saw Roland's peculiarly shining eyes, she found it hard to deny what he had said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the end, she had no choice but to ask in a low voice, what kind of weapon is that? Roland did not give a direct answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He drank some tea before saying slowly, What does the scene of the last round of explosion look like in your eyes? Is this about my doubts?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She closed her eyes and a moment later said, like a sunrise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the smoke and dust were taken as clouds, the rising orange fireball would undoubtedly be the sunrise at dawn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, it's just like the red light of the early morning sun. But the third level of weapon is the real sun, dot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roll and raise the corner of his lip, as if he was narrating a thing made by God. You can't look straight at it because it'll burn your eyes. Neither can you come too close to it, for the glittering light will burn you all over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Its core temperature can turn stones into gases, and the air billow it generates is strong enough to smash houses. The description made Phyllis Shutter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She was unable to distinguish whether what he was saying was an overestimation or the truth. How can we make it? She asked. We have to accomplish two epic tasks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Phyllis found herself unable to understand even one word and Agatha was shrugging helplessly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ahem, in short, it's very complicated, so I need more witches to push forward the research and speed up the technological development in Neverwinter. Roland coughed a little.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, the things you found in the ruin may be helpful, so I hope we can start a deeper negotiation as soon as possible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With a complicated feeling, Phyllis looked at the king, who was a common person, before taking off the ring on her finger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As promised, I'll contact Pasha and other survivors for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I crush this five-colored stone, they'll sense my location. But if you wanna talk directly, I'm afraid it'll take one or two more days. I don't know when Pasha can get a magic core ready. Can we have a conversation anywhere?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, but if the condition permits, a spacious place will be much better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well then, you can crush the magic stone in the hall. That will make it a little formal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland said before he turned to Agatha and said, You take her there for me. Yes, your majesty. After leaving the office, Phyllis took a deep breath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She had done all she could do. Next was to wait for the response from the rest of the survivors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The effect of the live fire artillery exercise exceeded Roland's expectations. He had indeed got what had paid for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the last round of explosion, he had ignited 70% of the total black powder reserves and had got an explosion as intense as that of the roadside bombs in the modern world where he had lived before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While the soldiers had been burying the powder, he had had a sudden thought and had mixed some aluminum powder with the gunpowder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As a result, the fireball of the explosion had become even more bright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The moment it had shot out of the ground, it had looked a bit like the rising sun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the success of this explosion, the first Army's explosives had been officially upgraded from black powder to chemical gunpowder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As for the nuclear explosives, he could only fantasize about it at this moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was quite a lot of uranium in the Earth's crust, which was even more than silver and gold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He could have simply asked Lucia to collect uranium, but he was unable to prevent radiation damage from nuclear fallout or manufacture qualified lead plates.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The most important thing was that he didn't know whether Nana could heal radioactive diseases, namely, the biological deformation in genes caused by particle ionization.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So unless he was left with no choice, Roland did not plan to start the bright radiation, a task as epic as the mythical stealing of fire. After all, it was too dangerous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After settling the issue of the tequila witches meeting, he invited Tilly into his office. It was time to discuss the bet with her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland poured her a cup of chaos drink, cleared his throat, and said about the hunting competition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though Agatha is a member of the Witch Union, her team didn't represent the Neverwinter City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tilly seemed to have already guessed Roland's thoughts and narrowed her eyes. Brother, our bet can only be considered as a draw.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I won't accept it if you intend to count Leaf as part of the Neverwinter team. Of course, our bet did end in a draw. But I still want you to stay, Roland said honestly. His straightforward attitude made Tilly Stutter hug. So how about we count it as a double win?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was the first time that he saw Princess Tilly's speechless expression, which was actually rather adorable in his eyes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll use one third of the profits of Chaos Drink as a fund to reward anyone, a witch or a common person, who contributes to the Neverwinter City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can take up residence in the Neverwinter City, either in the Witch Building or somewhere else together with the Sleeping Island Witches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As they started discussing business, Tilly soon regained her focus and coughed as if nothing had happened, only one third? We had initially agreed on half of the profits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I estimated that even one third of the profit would still be a shocking amount. It'll be enough for one lifetime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland explained, the rest of the money will be used for the Neverwinter City's infrastructure, including the witch's accommodation and necessary facilities, as well as salary distribution. In general, it will be used for all the needed areas. If you need more, you can directly take it. Even if I spend all the earned gold royals,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, they would be wasted anyway in the warehouse if left unused, he replied naturally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the future, when the metallic currency was no longer able to meet the productivity needs, it would be the time to start using credit currency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When that happened, the gold royals would become just a number for the government, which would print out the money directly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Given that, storing metallic money was not important for him. Till he smirked, sounds like a good deal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why it's called a double win, Roland said. Don't you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though she acted like she was reluctantly agreeing, her smiling eyes could not hide her real feelings. Roland could not help but smile too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had only seen a look of suspicion on her face one year ago, but now she put on a relaxed smile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seemed like she finally believed that he could bring a stable and comfortable life for the witches. Oh right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After some casual chatting, he wanted to change the topic and focused on the retrieval of the southernmost region.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I plan to integrate the Sand Nation's domain into the Kingdom of Grey Castle this coming winter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their traditions and power inheritance methods are very different from the ones in the Four Kingdoms. Thus, I need your help to completely conquer it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Next, Roland described to her the laws and holy duel ceremony of the Sand Nation. I don't have a problem with Ash's joining the duel. Tilly said after thinking for a while. But why do you want to integrate the desert?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since the Kingdom of Grey Castle was established, no ancestor had ever shown any interest in that land.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It only looks deserted, but the underground fire that has never been extinguished for the past dozens of years and the plane covered by white salt are all proofs of the hidden treasures of that land. Roland waved his hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'm not mistaken, southernmost region will be an indispensable part in the future development of Neverwinter. In that case, I'll explain the ashes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tilly did not ask for more details, but nodded in accordance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nowadays, the trust between them was slowly increasing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was obvious that in the future, the witch union and the sleeping island witches would have a close relationship. Roland was very pleased as he thought about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After sending his sister away, he immediately called Echo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The holy duel could only earn the right of speech for him, but it was not a long-term solution.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He did not just need a clan's right to live in the Iron Sand City, but numerous Magin people that would follow him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For this, he had to become the legendary great chief.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roland did not have the time to lead the army personally, so he had to find a representative.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the princess of the Osha clan, Echo was a key figure in persuading the Majin people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if Iron Axe has discussed with you about returning to the southernmost region. He said directly, this winter the First Army will enter in station in the Iron Sand City, and I wish you'll go there on my behalf.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he didn't mention anything. Echo looked surprised, then bit her lips and said with a sad expression, Your Majesty, don't you want me anymore?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hearing her first sentence, Roland was happy to know that Iron Axe understood that any military action was the kingdom's secret and had not mentioned anything about it even to his own clan member. However, her last words almost made him choke.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though he knew what she actually meant, still, those words could be easily misunderstood.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the same time, he felt a cold breath behind him and Nightingale's hand firmly pinched his arm. Of course not. This is temporary. Once I become the Great Chief of the Sand Nation, you can return with Iron Axe to the Neverwinter City. I won't force you if you don't want to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hearing that, Echo relaxed, I understand, but the holy duel won't be enough to subdue all the Magin people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course, I have another plan. Roland laughed and then slowly described it to her. This. Echo was shocked and expressed her disbelief. Can this really be done?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Definitely. I'm the king of Great Castle. I give you my word. He said emphatically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the name of three gods, the Sand Nation will never forget your kindness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She was not hesitating anymore, but instead she knelt and bowed respectfully, Echo is willing to complete this task for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very good. Roland stood up to help the Majin girl who had suffered a lot to rise. I'm counting on you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In this way, the preparations for the retrieval of the southernmost region were completed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the depths of the maze-like cave, the tremor above their heads grew louder and louder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pasha knew that they were quickly approaching with unstoppable numbers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She stretched her tentacles into the soil and rose above ground, where she saw everything that was happening outside the mountain. The dark mass of demonic beasts were rampaging between the mountains and all of the entrances to the maze ruins were blocked by fearful beasts of hells.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The demonic hybrids behind them were furiously tearing apart the flesh and bones of the beasts until they could open up a space between them. They had no choice, or else they would be crushed to death by the rest of the demonic beasts behind them at the cave entrance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Despite the desperate struggle of the hybrids, the passage would soon be blocked once again by the flood of demonic beasts, and the only way to get through was to repeat the previous actions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This had resulted in a bloodbath in front of the entrances before the demonic beasts even launched their attack at the core area.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chaos ensued underground as the wilderness beasts crawled around within the different layers of the earth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their head full of tentacles could easily sense the weaker parts of the ground, and the oil-like substance on its skin allowed it to burrow through the ground effortlessly, carrying within its long tube-like body a large number of demonic hybrids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once a monster like that broke through the defensive line, it would often incur a massive amount of casualties within the ranks of the defenders.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even some mutated flying beasts had appeared in the sky, but they could only hover in the air as they were unable to enter the underground ruin. This was an unfathomable experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She did not directly witness the scene unfold in front of her, but whether it was the shrieks coming from above the mountains, the tremors within the layers of the earth, or the sounds of rock and soil mashing together, they were all accurately transmitted into her mind through the thousands of tentacles, forming countless vivid images.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was the largest scale invasion of the demonic beasts since the beginning of this winter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pasha withdrew her limbs and descended to an even deeper layer below.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From time to time, some loose clumps of dirt would fall from the ceiling and smash into the braziers at the sides of the passage. She did not need the flames to see every single stone in the ground, but those who had turned into God's punishment soldiers did need them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She extinguished the flames and the braziers on her way back when everyone had already moved to the maze hall. How's the situation above?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As she entered the hall, she heard Alathea's voice in her head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The closest wilderness beast to us has reached the third layer. Pasha transmitted her words to everyone's consciousness. How's the situation below the maze?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's nothing unusual, Alathia replied. I only saw some charred black corpses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pasha's perception and understanding of fighting had changed dramatically since her body's transformation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The originally flat world had suddenly become three-dimensional, and since their enemies were able to move freely in the ground, the survivors had to keep an eye out for the situation beneath them. As long as they were not standing at the end of the abyss, they should not ignore the deeper hidden threats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fortunately, a lava river flowed endlessly beneath the ruin, which sealed the larger part of the bottom of the maze, and thus spared them a lot of effort.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up until now, there has not been a demonic beast that was not afraid of fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How long before the instrument of divine retribution is ready? Pasha looked at Selene. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Half an hour, maybe one hour, the latter replied anxiously from the magic core's direction. I've tried my best, but the damaged position in area 4-3 has just been repaired and Lady Eleanor needs more time to calculate the core. Don't worry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They won't arrive that fast. She calmed her. The bigger demonic hybrids will be blocked outside of the cave entrances and will only have to handle the smaller ones. You're right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can just treat it as daily training, Elena said. As long as we're here, the demonic beasts will not be able to enter the hall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think it may have been the best idea to retrieve the relic of God so early.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wouldn't it be better to have let Starfall City consume a bit more of their strength? Someone asked. They would still have to defend Hermes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But without the God's punishment army, those common people are worthless. Alathea refuted her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The walls can effectively block the demonic beasts, and the hot oil and manganelles can also give those beasts a good beating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We would just need to stay hidden in the pivotal secret temple and wait for a break in the city's defenses to retrieve the relic. There are many traps hidden under the cathedral. What if the enemies accidentally triggered such a trap?
