2026-05-27 18:00:11The morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the canopy of the Hidden Forest, casting a golden hue upon the walls of Alden’s ancient treehouse. The aroma of toasted wheat bread and warm herbal soup provided a fleeting illusion of peace. However, the atmosphere inside the treehouse's main room abruptly chilled once breakfast concluded. Everyone gathered around a large, round wooden table—the place where a new destiny would be outlined.
Alden sat in the center, his usually calm fa

44. Clash on the Ruins of the Sky
The clash of two energies with completely opposite polarities broke the silence of dawn at the peak of the Central Command Tower absolutely. A grand scythe of black crystal manifesting from Lady Cassandra's Astral Materialization technique struck the surface of the broken blade of Ethan's Shadow Veil. The shockwave generated from the collision was no longer a mere ripple of Mana; it was a pure kinetic explosion that cracked the concrete floor of the highest roof platform until half of it collapsed, throwing ancient stone materials into the abyss of the Domestic Sector below.Isyra was forced to thrust both of her silver daggers into the remaining solid floor to hold her body from being thrown by the blast's aft wind. Her pair of officer eyes widened perfectly seeing the mechanical precision of Cassandra's new physical form."A physical manifestation of an astral projection, she has truly transferred a portion of her original body's core circuit from the main mothership!"In the midst
43. Soul Anchor in the Obsidian Depths
The rumble inside the core axis room of the Western Sector grew increasingly rampant, creating a truly deafening audio distortion. Giant copper pipes on the obsidian walls vibrated violently, releasing high-pressure hot steam as the color of the earth Mana stream shifted from emerald green to a dense orange-red. The safety threshold indicator had been exceeded; this valley was truly in its final moments before experiencing a Mana Collapse that would level the entire domestic sector.On top of the cracked stone floor, the consciousness of Luvy, the old Physician, was thinning out. However, upon uttering an ancient voice circuit password into Jaxon's ear, the grand physician's old pair of eyes flashed with the remnants of his medical authority."Jaxon ... hold on ... become the anchor ...." Luvy coughed, throwing up fresh blood that instantly froze due to the ice vapor wafting inside the room. His old hand tactically pressed an emergency acupuncture point on his own neck, sealing his ma
42. Black Wick Underground
The underground corridor leading to the Western Sector was completely different from the clean hallways of the Command Tower. Here, the walls were formed from rough black obsidian stone with giant copper pipes running through them, carrying the slowly pulsing earth Mana. The air felt stuffy, smelling of old iron rust, and filled with a constant micro-frequency vibration due to the tactical pressure of the Eclipse Gate magic which was growing increasingly rampant in the outer sky.Ethan walked at the very front. His footsteps wrapped in black tactical boots moved without a sound, like a ghost slicing through the darkness. Beside him, little Rion flew low with his gold eyes glowing alertly, occasionally releasing thin ice vapor from his muzzle to neutralize the hot air escaping from the Mana pipes.Behind Ethan, Jaxon suddenly halted his steps. His muscular body tensed completely, and his right hand immediately gripped his own chest, precisely at the point where his winged lion tattoo c
41. The Eclipse Gate and the Broken Thread
The two bronze doors of the Main Strategy Room opened with a heavy thud that echoed throughout the corridors of the Central Command Tower. Ethan stepped inside first, followed by Isyra, Jaxon, and Commander Aqlan. The cold air from the remnants of the battle in the Sky Sector still wafted thinly from Ethan's black robe, but his pair of blue-gold eyes immediately locked onto the holographic map table in the center of the room.The atmosphere inside the room was truly at its nadir. The green glow that usually symbolized the thickness of Aegisvar's protective veil was now almost completely obscured by the projected whirlpool of a dense, purplish-black energy. The whirlpool spun slowly precisely above the coordinates of the valley's outer sky, forming a macro anomaly resembling a giant eye staring down toward them.Supreme Commander Zaky stood at the end of the table with facial lines that appeared ten years older. Both of his hands gripped the edge of the table until his knuckles turned
40. Lion's Steps in the Sky Sector
The gust of canyon wind mixed with ice shards and the remnants of destroyed gunpowder was truly unable to dampen the new wave of pressure that had just struck the Sky Sector. Beneath the dawn sky reddened by the blaze of dragon fire, Jaxon's presence with a shroud of reddish-gold aura in the shape of a winged lion completely broke the absolute dominance of the Order of the Black Dawn fleet.General Kaelen, standing on the wreckage of his main mothership's deck, lowered his iron hand with a expression that hardened completely. His pair of eyes, accustomed to seeing tactical slaughter, were now filled with a deep calculation of anxiety. The Winged Lion emblem was a terrifying specter for the empire's traitors; it was the symbol of Knight Tyron, the guardian of the old throne who was supposed to have perished decades ago."How is it possible for that essence to manifest in a raw brat in this discarded valley?!" Kaelen growled low, his voice muffled by the roaring steam engine of his ship
39. The Lion Who Awoke in the Storm
Aegisvar's green protective veil at the northeastern end was truly ripped open on a macro scale. Three units of Iron Leviathan-class mechanical motherships belonging to the Order of the Black Dawn hovered arrogantly amidst the black fog, the muzzles of their steam cannons still spewing the remnants of demolisher projectiles. Hundreds of heavy armored infantry soldiers began jumping down using steel wire grappling ropes, charging into the narrow crevice of the Sky Sector with the absolute arrogance of the empire's technology.On top of the highest platform of The Dragon Crucible, the storm wind howled, flapping Ethan's black robe wildly. Under the tactical coordination of Supreme Commander Zaky from the central tower, the bait had truly been swallowed hook, line, and sinker by General Kaelen. The enemy thought they had successfully breached a domestic weak point, without knowing that they were walking toward a mass graveyard that had been coldly calculated."Ethan! Their frontline divi
