The clock hit nine times. The sound of sailors replacing the value change came from the deck.

Odessa's fleet could not catch up with the Berren Hill. According to the agreement, they were stationed in their respective ports. Once the Berren Hill broke away from the coastline and entered the depths of the quiet sea, it entered the control of Baierland.

On nights with poor vision, the combat effectiveness of both sides of the fleet depends on the perception of their extraordinary people. Each extraordinary person who can serve as a captain often has unique abilities.

As long as Griffith arrives at Homonts with the seal, Odessa has nothing to argue. The breath of the external god cannot be concealed, and any discerning person can see how evil and dangerous the seal he snatched from Metiny.

But is this really safe? Behind Naira and the Odessa people is an external god. Didn’t they prepare for the situation in front of them?

Griffith stomped in the cabin restlessly. He walked from the desk to the bed and then walked from the bed to the sofa. When he walked for the fifth round and forth, he suddenly saw Roland appear on his sofa.

"Oh, man, long time no see~"

Roland wore a black hood, and the shadow covered his eyes, looking mysterious. The Berren Hill was very alert, but he was not noticed at all.

"Good evening, Count, how did you avoid sentries and guard arrays?"

"It's no big deal," said Roland. "A small boat, a set of hook ropes, and appropriate equipment. I rowed myself and quietly approached in the dark night. The beautiful and sexy "Entertainment" stopped in the thick fog a few miles away. The sentry served by ordinary people has its limits, and the number of extraordinary people cannot cover all the time. It is indeed time-consuming for rowing myself, but it is worth it for confidentiality.

"Then, I quietly climbed up your mast and hid there and looked down at the deck. When time came, I jumped down with faith! It fell, landed at the captain's door, it was that simple."

"Why did it fall there? Didn't Alandel find you?"

"Of course, I found out. I originally wanted to say hello to her first. Hey, now little girl, pull out the musket I gave me without saying a word... If you don't talk about this, Knight, are you satisfied with the Burren Hill I designed?"

If this is an attack, it would be bad... Griffith had a glimmer of concern about the safety of the Burren Hill, but he still let it go for the time being and had the current conversation first.

"Amazing, you can always bring unexpected surprises," Griffith saluted the mysterious retired hero. "Can you tell me the cause and effect of this commission? I understand that there is indeed such a need for caution, but overall planning is also crucial to my next battle."

"Yes, it's crucial. Commanders and fighters must have a full understanding of their mission in order to bravely devote themselves to great causes!" Roland said, "I don't want remote contacts to be eavesdropped, nor can I know that I have taken action. I can only use this primitive means."

Roland said as he took out a small suitcase and placed it on the table: "Please accept this first. Although we are comrades, not employment relationships, you have helped me a lot and you still have to show some of it."

Griffith saw eighteen sets of ammunition and a small number of exquisite accessories in the box.

“These are escalation suits for slaughtering sins.

"Aojin Shotball can cause close range damage, and the damage it creates can be fed back to the holder for treatment.

"The new type of fine gold bullet has improved the formula and strengthened the range and penetration. Do you think the shooting trajectory of more than twenty-five yards of Duan Jing is not very stable? We have finally solved this problem."

I don't think I'm just shooting someone with my face now... Griffith nodded without comment, pointed to the last ammunition and asked:

“Where is this?”

This was a black ammunition flowing with a chaotic atmosphere, deep as if it was about to drip from the ink. Griffith heard waves of elusive murmurs, as if something was appearing in the shadows, peeking at him.

"The No. 12 piercing bomb, high precision, high...hey!? Why? I, I took the wrong one, I took the wrong one!"

Roland whispered in a low voice, shook his head with a little embarrassed look: "This is a mast bomb, an unsuccessful test piece. Using mast evil iron as a material, it has strong explosion and lethality. Some strange things will appear near the target hit. This weird thing will disturb the elements in the air, and the ballistics are completely unpredictable. There have even been incidents of flying back from a distance of ten yards to injure the shooter. I will take it back and change it to you for something else."

"No need!" Griffith pressed the lid, "I'll try it. Let's talk about it now."

  …

The information about Metini's battle comes from the information provided by Roland a few weeks ago. Metini Academy hides high-level seals that violate the treaty, and a hidden force is preparing to seize them. Roland is not convenient for action, but hopes that others can interfere as an official capacity.

After careful consideration, Griffith did not report this information to the military, but instead took advantage of the opportunity to take back the Storm Cavalry Squadron from Odessa to launch a raid on Port Metini.

Griffith took the battle out and showed it to Roland carefully:

"I seized some of the seals, namely the ancient book "Linyuan Collection" and the Ring of Life. The girls from the Kuimansha family were also on this ship. However, the most important target, Naira, may have held a very powerful seal, which became very dangerous. I was unable to move when I was at a certain distance from him, and my body aging accelerated, and almost died.

"Earl Roland, these people and objects are very powerful and dangerous. Why do you interfere in their actions?"

Roland looked at the two seized seals and said slowly:

"You must know Aaron, right?"

Aaron was a second-year student in the magic department of the same class as Griffith. As early as the beginning of his enrollment, the school took extra care of him. When the huge sea monster attacked the freshman Flying Leaf, Aaron, who was supposed to be on the same boat, was operating from another route under the protection of the guards. Principal Tyberion paid great attention to him. According to legend, he defeated the terrifying Black Magic Supreme in his infancy, and was also the only bloodline of the family surviving the deadly black magic attack.

Aaron was prophesied to bring balance to light and darkness.

In the subsequent Watch Castle attack, Aaron went deep into the core of the ruins of the Wizard Forest alone, trying to find the Sage Stone with powerful energy. It was also there that Griffith and Aaron fought.

It is uncertain whether this series of actions was based on his will or whether it was controlled by some existence. After that, the famous young man remained silent, which was a potential danger to Griffith.

Roland said:

“Outside our world, there are some powerful mysteries wandering around the void and the spiritual world. They are external gods, or ancient gods.

"The immortal god is one of them. Before the descent of Odessa's advent ritual was destroyed, part of His body and power passed through the barriers of the plane and reached this world. Before His image was formed, the broken plane passage destroyed the unformed limbs, and the remaining fragments were scattered in this world.

“These fragments possess powerful and dangerous powers, and the power of many wizards and extraordinary people has been enhanced like never before. They have been able to peek at mysterious knowledge and have become more mature in the use of magic. The Seven Gods’ Holy See’s Church has benefited more.

"The mystery of the whole world has been enhanced as a result."

Griffith listened quietly. This may be the reason why the woven threads of life in the virtual realm can still start a conspiracy with the existence of the Seven Gods and many forces. The noble beings and their believers wandered in the sky like vultures, waiting to share the corpse.

Roland continued:

“This is not the first time that the external gods have interfered in our world.

"More than a year ago, in 1443, a mysterious cult began to spread among the half-elves in Canaan. At that time, you were still fighting on the Eastern Front. An elf commander was killed, and another noble lady was captured by the cultist and prepared to be used as a sacrifice for evil consciousness.

"Luckily, the official arrived in time and cleaned up the cult. According to the tokens and clues found in the clergy, this is a hidden faith in the ancient god, pointing to the ancient god who is in charge of plague and dreams. He "sents dreams to creatures waiting to be rescued" in the name of "the Lord who sleeps in the abyss". This summer, when you and Miss Veranoy are in danger, the most active enemies are believers of this master.

"The dominant corps were suppressed before they formed a climate. However, things were not understood. Since then, not only half-elves, but more and more elves wizards with high status have become His followers. Perhaps, the suppression of the corps was exactly what He expected. The official response was like a futile joke. The more severe the sanctions were to cut off the pollution of reality by the external gods, the faster the mysterious existence would spread.

"These high-dimensional beings become real through descriptions. The powerful force is tempting the creatures in this world every moment and serving their plans to penetrate into the real world. Their arrival can be delayed and unstoppable..."

Griffith fell into deep contemplation.

Roland paused for a while and continued:

“The next thing is the problem we have to face.

"For almost all gods, when He cannot walk in the world, an agent needs to declare His will, and fight for Him when he needs it. Every agent will pay a huge price, but it will also shake the pattern of power and the balance of spiritual power. We call these agents
