Chapter 508: Chapter 379: Obedience of Juby_1

At the same time as murderous intent surged through his body, a hint of doubt surfaced on Joshua’s delicate face.

She forcefully suppressed her anger and asked Leo Ray in confusion, “Your Excellency, what is your intention?”

“No particular intention.” Leo Ray gave a slight smile, glanced at Rocky, whose face still revealed a trace of ruthlessness and had long been lost in his thoughts.

Then he said lightly, “I just want to help a helpless woman fulfill her desire for revenge.”

Hearing this, Joshua’s slender body trembled slightly, and then she asked, “Your Excellency, why… why are you helping me?”

“The things that are about to happen in this world, as well as what has happened, are far more terrifying than you know,” Leo Ray said with a light laugh, not directly answering Joshua’s question.

Without delay, he shared his knowledge with Joshua.

He spoke of the past: the Blank Era 3000 years ago, the forsaken favor of the gods, and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God.

He discussed the present: the mysterious organization lurking in the shadows, the conversation with Hero King Caesar in the Dragon’s Lair, where the ancestors slept, and the sightings of Elf Relics and the Winged Race’s Barrier.

As well as the future: the imminent arrival of a great catastrophe that could happen at any time, all described to Joshua.

During this process, he also displayed several items, such as the mysterious organization’s mask, the Eternal Night Magic Box, Wind and Cloud Wings, and petrified Winged Race equipment that he acquired previously.

After listening to Leo Ray’s words, Joshua’s expression went from astonishment to increasingly solemn.

Her occupation was Sacred Sword Priest, one of the rare advanced occupations of the Holy-Light Priest.

The organization that trained Holy-Light Priests was the Temple of Light, which had branches in large cities of the Human Clan.

However, for thousands of years, the Temple of Light never participated in the conflicts among the Human Clan.

Only when the Human Clan faced threats from the Foreign Race would the Temple of Light step forward to help them overcome their difficulties. It was one of the organizations that were absolutely neutral and highly prestigious.

Moreover, the strong individuals who chose to leave the Temple of Light were no longer subject to its control and could freely decide their own future path.

In short, Joshua’s student days were spent mainly between the Temple of Light and the Noble Academy.

As a result, as a high-ranking Sacred Sword Priest in the Temple, she learned some superficial information about the Era of Blankness and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God during her time studying at the Royal Capital’s Temple of Light.

However, she didn’t have access to more secrets since she chose to leave the Temple of Light after reaching adulthood.

“I didn’t expect this young man who has just arrived to know so much more than I do, and his analyses and conjectures all make sense…”

Realizing this, Joshua’s long eyelashes flashed, and the admiration in her eyes toward Leo Ray became increasingly difficult to suppress.

“After talking with Hero King Caesar, I clearly understood that the first threat that people on this land will face in the near future is the unknown terrible catastrophe, and after that, the real danger will just be beginning.

The most crucial point is that all these events – the Blank Age three thousand years ago, the absence of gods’ favor, the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God, our sudden arrival as Otherworldly Lords, and even the upcoming catastrophe – apparently have some underlying connection.

This is absolutely beyond doubt.”

As he saw the still somewhat dazed Joshua, Leo Ray nodded and continued pacing slowly, saying, “In summary, my goal is only one thing, to build high walls and gather food on this land, and use all possible living forces to confront the impending crisis of catastrophe.”

At this point, Leo Ray’s tone became even heavier, “Only then can we resist the terrible disaster. And the time left for us is running short. When the crisis comes, I’m afraid the whole world will suffer a devastating blow.”

He then explained his plan to support Ariel Watson to ascend the Coldflame Throne to Joshua again.

At this time, listening to Leo Ray’s words, the shock on Joshua’s delicate face became more apparent.

She muttered in her heart, “Our future ruler of Coldflame is still fighting a ridiculous power struggle, turning the entire Royal Capital into a battlefield comparable to purgatory.”

“And this man from the Otherworld is thinking far beyond that limit, isn’t he?”

On the other side, watching Joshua’s bewildered and complex expression, Leo Ray stepped forward again.

With a serious expression, he said sternly, “Joshua, I need your help to accomplish all of this better!”

Upon hearing this, Joshua’s slender body couldn’t help but tremble.

At this moment, recalling how Leo Ray had saved her in the Dragon’s Lair Underground Square, seeing Rocky, her enemy in a dazed state not far away, and having listened to the words just now…

Joshua took a deep breath, calming her slightly throbbing heart.

Then, without any hesitation, she directly knelt before Leo Ray, her face stern and serious, “I, Joshua Dawn, swear to serve the Lord with my life!”
