Chapter 1398 "The Altar's Replacement"

For the death of so many celestials on the battlefield now, the queen could only hope that after the war ended…

The birth rate of pure-blood celestials could be increased by increasing the amount of holy light blessing them.

The more dark creatures they killed, the more holy light the celestials would receive and the stronger they would be.

After the queen called the marshal to summon the halflings who joined the reserve army because their ancestors were once celestial soldiers too, the queen waited patiently above the special clouds.

Chantelle was gone, and the queen could naturally create new special clouds but this time it wouldn't be as big as the base camp she created before.

She only created the special clouds because the nearby empty islands were all occupied by the blood clan and she felt that it wasn't safe enough to stay on those islands.

A celestial was a sky creature after all, born to fly freely in the sky.

It was more comfortable for them to sleep on clouds and fly all day than staying on land near the sea, especially at night.

The queen patiently waited for the 'living altars' to arrive and soon, the halflings that hadn't joined the battlefield arrived at the queen's place one after another.

Most of these halflings didn't even have the iconic celestial wings or even if they did, the wings were too small for them to fly.

They weren't much better than the winged ability users.

To be honest, the queen even preferred the winged ability users to these halflings with dirty blood.

There were just too few halflings that could awaken their celestial bloodline or have wings and grow wings from childhood.

The queen looked at the halflings that the marshal transported with a flying carriage while dodging the blood clan's attack below with disgust in her eyes.

There weren't many halflings that the marshal dumped at the queen's place, maybe only a hundred people or so, but the marshal told the queen that more halflings would arrive soon.

"We have quite a lot of halflings in the reinforcement batch, and most of them can't fly, so we can't let them join the battlefield just yet, "

The marshal carefully explained to the queen.

After all, the war was indeed an air battle and even the blood clan, who wasn't a race that liked to fly in the sky, still fought while flapping their wings.

Sometimes, they would lure the celestials to land on the islands they occupied and ambush the celestials, but most of them didn't dare to get too close to the sea.

After all, who knew if those wild monsters and beasts in the sea were still there or not.

Although they didn't actively capture living celestials or blood clans that had lost their wings and seemingly only targeted corpses...

The blood clan and the celestials were both cautious.

In this case, the halflings that couldn't fly and had to rely on their flying-type contracted beasts or monsters were not as convenient as those who could fly.

Seeing these halflings without wings or just super small baby angel-like wings, the queen held back her disgust and warmly welcomed the halflings to the clouds around her.

"Okay, everyone, welcome to this queen's temporary base."

"This queen knows you can't join the battlefield without flying-type mounts, but this Queen finally has a super important task for all of you!"

The halflings had been waiting for hours without even helping, and although they had been promised the right to live in the Sky Kingdom....

Most of them felt that if they only became spies and didn't contribute to this historical war at all, they wouldn't live a good life in the Sky Kingdom.

Now that the queen suddenly said that she had an important task for halflings who couldn't fly like them, the halflings couldn't help but become excited.

More and more halflings were dropped on this special cloud area, and some powerful celestials surrounded the clouds to protect the Queen and the halflings from the blood clan down there.

Seeing that even powerful celestials surrounded them to protect them, the halflings who were used to being looked down upon, felt even more flattered.

The way they looked at the queen changed from being wary to a gaze full of worship.

"Your majesty, thank you for your trust! May this lowly one know what kind of task your majesty wants to entrust to us?"

The leader of the halflings, who had expanded from just 100 people up to 1000 within fifteen minutes, immediately kneeled a few meters away in front of the queen.

Even ordinary celestials couldn't get so close to the queen, but now, these halflings got the chance to get close to the queen, and the queen also didn't avoid them.

At least on the surface.

How could these halflings not be excited?

Some of them were half human and half celestial, others were half celestial and half-elves or half celestial and half other light creatures.

At least there were almost no people with blood from the light camp's creature and the dark camp's creature.

The queen silently sighed in relief at this and casually looked at the young man who asked her the question about the task.

Thinking about replacing the holy altar with living people, the queen emitted a warm aura to comfort the halflings, instantly acting as a holy mother or something.

With a smile on her face, the Queen slowly explained the 'noble task' to the halflings.

"I need to awaken the celestials' ancient race inheritance, but we, unfortunately, lost our sacred altar."

Thus, she needed a replacement for the altar— and that's you, halflings!

Was what the Queen didn't say in the end.
