Chapter 1094 Emergency Meeting [Part 2]

Chapter 1094 Emergency Meeting [Part 2]

"Eiko, I love you, and I believe in you," Lux said after seeing the teary-eyed Baby Slime. "Because of this, I will need your help to protect the Ford Federation and the Fynn Kingdom."

"Pa?" Eiko looked at her Papa with a confused look on her face.

"You are now the leader of the Ford Federation, and people believe in you as well," Lux smiled. "I heard from Blackfire that the Boom Boom Church is now one of the biggest religions in the Seven Seas. Is that true?"

"Pa!" Eiko replied, somewhat feeling proud that she was now a symbol of authority in the Seven Seas.

Lux nodded. "Good. Then, I ask you to order your Pirate Crew to help protect it. The Saints and Supremes that belong to the Ford Federation will help defend that Domain. I will also give them an additional ten Calamity-Ranked Beast to reinforce their defenses.

"As for you, I will need you, Avery, and Poseidon to help defend the Fynn Kingdom. It is where our people will migrate to in the future, and we must protect it at all cost. Also, it is your Grandpa's and Grandma's kingdom, so you should protect it to the best of your abilities.

"I will also send twenty Calamity-Ranked Monsters to help you defend it. Make sure to keep it safe."

Eiko nodded with a determined look on her face. "Pa!"

Lux smiled. "Good girl."

Truth be told, the main reason why he didn't want to let Eiko fight with him was due to Maeve's vision.

He didn't understand what the Oracle meant when she said that he ceased to exist, but if that were to really become a reality, he didn't want the Baby Slime to suffer the same fate as him.

After dividing his forces, the Half-Elf still had a little over fifty Calamity-Ranked Monsters that he could summon to fight for him.

Although he had hundreds of Saints whom Blackfire had captured during his rampage in Elysium, he intended to let them return to their respective Kingdoms in order to help defend their land in the upcoming invasion.

Although this would greatly reduce the number of Power Houses he could summon, he was doing this for the bigger picture.

The Beast King, who was also in the meeting, was tasked to protect his people from the upcoming invasion.

Lux didn't have enough forces to spare him additional reinforcements, but Dilan was already grateful that he was allowed to fight for his homeland.

Hereswith would help defend Espoir Frieden, where the World Tree was located. nove/lb/1n

This was one of the priority targets of the Abyssal Creatures, and having his Master holding the Fort would give Lux some peace of mind.

The Blackrock Clan, the Dryads, as well as the other representatives of the Wanid Kingdom were also part of the meeting and had been informed of the upcoming invasion.

All of them planned to gather at the Ancient City, which was located at the center of their Kingdom, creating a united front.

Although Lux wanted to send some Calamity-Ranked Monsters to reinforce them, he refrained from doing so.

Right now, his forces were stretched too thin, and he knew that he couldn't afford to decrease his personal army even further.

The only saving grace was that the Blackrock Clan and the Dryads were all part of Heaven's Gate.

In the worst-case scenario, all of them could just teleport to the Floating Island and escape annihilation as a last resort.

As for the Succubi and the Satyrs, all of them would remain on the floating island to help defend it.

The Succubi were quite worried about Queen Rhiannon, who was the ruler of the 13th Layer of the Abyss.

But after Lux assured them that Antero was there to protect her, their worries decreased drastically. If the Golem of Destruction was not able to protect Queen Rhiannon, no one would be able to protect her at all.

They all knew that the Primordial Golem treated the Succubus Queen differently, so her safety was ensured.

Lux also didn't believe that Queen Rhiannon would join the Abyssal Invasion. His gut instinct was telling him that, although they had a shaky beginning, Queen Rhiannon was now definitely on their side.

When the meeting ended, Lux summoned his Battle Angel, Seraphina, to make a worldwide announcement.

He wanted to share the news with every corner of the world. Eriol and Max cooperated, allowing her announcement to be heard in both Solais and Elysium.

—————————

"People of the World, I come with a message from the Gods. Seven Days from now, the Abyssal invasion will begin. Monsters from the Abyss will appear in our world, and rivers of blood will flow.

"This is a time when all must work hand in hand to help defend everything that we hold sacred.

"May fortune favor your valor in the crucible of war, turning every challenge into triumph and adversity into opportunity.

"For Hearth and Home, victory will be ours!"

—————————

Seraphina's divine voice spread far and wide, reaching every corner of Elysium and Solais, including the Kingdom of Agartha, which was located deep beneath the Lands of Elysium.

After the announcement was made, a worldwide panic took place. But Lux knew that this was for the best.

There was a saying that Forewarned is Forearmed.

Even though this worldwide panic was inevitable, the moment things settled down, the rulers of their respective lands would calm down and start preparing for the upcoming battle.

Eriol also took an active role in giving Divine Messages to the Priestesses and Seers of the lands of Elysium, informing them that the announcement that they all heard was real.

The Six Kingdoms gathered to have an emergency in Barbatos Academy after the announcement was heard.

Lux was already there, alongside Alexander and Maximilian.

Although the Six Kingdoms didn't want to admit it, in times of hardships, they could only rely on these people to help them overcome the danger that was about to descend upon their land.

Lux only had one thing to say, and that was he couldn't protect everyone.

He advised the Six Kingdoms to do the best they could to protect themselves.

Of course, Lux wasn't that heartless and promised to assign two Calamity-Ranked Monsters to each Kingdom.

This was the best he could do for them. As for the rest, they could only pray that a gate would not appear near their territory.

Lux had also ordered the entirety of Wildgarde Stronghold to seek refuge in Barbatos Academy.

Maximilian had returned to the Rowan Tribe's Ancestral Lands in order to bring his people to Barbatos Academy, where the Half-Elf would be stationed as its Protector.

Eiko, Fei Fei, Glee, and all the Baby Slimes in Leaf Town and in Lux's Guild Headquarters were stockpiling Blast Bombs, which Glee and Eiko would turn into tactical nukes.

The Game-Shin Merchant Guild had decided to bring their people to the Floating Island and let them stay in the Town of Edea in order to prepare for the upcoming war against the forces of the Abyss.

The Divine Army and Memento Mori also announced their participation in this war.

This made the people of Elysium feel a bit better, knowing that two powerful factions who were once against each other had decided to work together for a common cause.

While all this was happening, Lux was also making his own preparations for the greatest battle of his life.

He didn't know whether Maeve's vision would come true or not, but he was certain of one thing.

Whatever was going to happen, he would be there on the frontlines of war to protect everything that he held sacred in his heart.
