Chapter 1733 - You Shall Gain Limitless Power

On the first day of her holiday, Amy played for the entire day at Jessica's house until she was satisfied before heading back home.

"I'm so happy today. Holidays are the best," Amy told Mag, who was preparing dinner, while eating ice cream. She was beaming brightly.

"There's still a long way to go before the end of the holiday," Mag said with a smile. Children were probably the happiest beings. They did not have to worry about the threat of the Great Old Ones, and could feel such bliss and happiness from an early holiday.

"That's great! I'm gonna play with Big Sister Xixi tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow when the school holiday starts, I'll play with Daphne and Ignatsu…" Amy had already started to count and plan her holiday.

"Alright. Then I'll be in charge of sending you around." Mag nodded with a smile.. A holiday without homework was simply bliss. However, he did not have much time to play with Amy recently, so it was naturally a good thing that she could have friends to spend the holiday with.

"Alright." Amy nodded happily before going out to torture Ugly Duckling.

"Mr. Mag, the high priest has a letter for you." Gina walked into the kitchen, and passed a letter sealed in an icy blue envelope to Mag.

"Alright." Mag received the letter. Lantisde had kept in contact with him through Gina. Their high priest would send a letter of thanks to Mag and the rest occasionally.

However, today's letter was not a letter of thanks.

"Dear Mr. Mag, Lantisde's core army has basically escaped from the seal, but we have always kept our promise with you, and have confined our activities to a 250-km radius of the ocean.

"However, recently, some of our people discovered the existence of other intelligent races in the regional ocean. We have observed that they had control over this region of ocean, and other than from the surface of the water, they would also obtain their resources from deep underwater.

"Currently, they have yet to discover our existence, but as more of our people escape from the seal, both parties are bound to interact with each other.

"According to what you said, Lantisde is unknown to the world. Our sudden appearance might cause fear and misunderstanding with other races, and therefore we would like to consult you, Mr. Mag, on how we should deal with this situation. Should we move deeper into the ocean, or should we attempt to interact with the outside world?

"Lastly, I thank you for your help for Lantisde. You will always be the benefactor of Lantisde.

"Regards, Dexter."

Mag looked at the letter, and fell deep in thought.

This was an army of Merfolk that was made by each and every customer who ordered the beggar's chicken from Mamy Restaurant.

There was no doubt about Lantisde's might. They had already proven their prowess during the elven war.

Now that their core troops had escaped from the seal, it meant that they had already become as strong as the elves, and were akin to the ruler of the ocean.

Although Mag was not the master of the Lantisde, he definitely was their trusted partner. On top of that, he had also gained the promise to get their help twice.

Alex might be very reputable, but he was still stuck at the peak of the 9th-tier.

Based on just him, Irina, and 30,000 Night Elves, or even with the addition of Chaos City, they would not have enough say in Norland Continent.

However, with Lantisde on their side, they would have a much bigger say, which would be just a little lacking compared to Dragon Island and the Roth Empire.

Besides, there were many legends about the Great Old Ones that were related to the ocean.

Lantisde might just be the important partner that could help them find the seal at the bottom of the ocean. This was a good opportunity for them to be acknowledged by the other races.

"I will write a letter in reply tonight," Mag told Gina as he kept the letter properly.

"Alright." Gina nodded with a smile. She looked at Mag and started to blush. She hesitated for a while before softly asking, "Did the high priest mention me in the letter?"

"I don't think so." Mag shook his head. He looked at Gina, who appeared a little shy.

"Oh." Gina quickly turned to walk out.

Homesick? Mag watched with bewilderment as Gina left. Come to think of it, Gina had indeed not gone home for a long time. Perhaps he could give her a short break to go back to the ocean.

Has the high priest forgotten about bestowing the marriage again? Gina walked out of the kitchen with a sigh, a little shy and mostly regretful.

After the dinner operating hours, Mag put Amy to bed very early before going to the study to write a letter of reply.

Lantisde had been sealed underwater for thousands of years without being able to see the light of the day, and without being known to the world. This was very unfair to a race as powerful as them.

They craved the world outside of the ocean, and craved the ability to interact more with this world to gain more acknowledgment.

Mag thought for a while, and wrote his reply.

"Lantisde has been sunk for years. Perhaps they would have some ancient articles and information that might be of help in repairing the spell formation." Irina appeared behind Mag.

"Let me add in a few more lines, then." Mag thought for a while, and added a few more lines.

"What should we do if we can't repair the spell formation?" Irina asked Mag, who was keeping the letter.

Mag fell silent for a while. He looked at her, and calmly said, "There's no going back. We can only bear the brunt of it."

"That's an expected answer. However, I like to hear you say it." Irina smiled.

"Perhaps the situation isn't as bad as we thought."

"No. It's worse than we thought. Even if it's just a few characters of the entire scripture that we can't decipher out of the entire spell formation, it will mean that our efforts are wasted. Even if we are only left with one layer now, that will probably be the hardest layer to interpret." Irina shook her head. "I'm afraid the horrifying battle is inevitable. Thankfully, everyone is in the same boat. No one is getting out of this alone."

Mag held Irina's hand, and said with certainty, "We will win."

Rodu, the second prince's manor.

"Find them, let them out… you shall gain limitless power. The strongest helper will allow you to gain full control of this world…" a creepy voice mumbled in a dimly lit secret chamber.

Josh looked at the greenish-black flame that was dancing within his shadow, and his gaze slowly turned hysterical. He pressed his voice down, and said, "Where are they? My partners."

"South… the gods will lead you to the correct path…"

"South?" Josh squinted his narrow eyes. "Well, just so happens that I'll be going to Chaos City…"

Bam!

A flask of wine was smashed into pieces upon hitting a wall.

Sean picked up another flask, and tilted his head up as he gulped the alcohol down.

"Your Highness…" The middle-aged man at the side was hesitant to speak, not knowing what to say.

"I've risked my all at the borders of the empire. Royal Father sent me to Chaos City to fetch Vanessa, but gave the chance to join the racial meeting to Josh! I feel indignant!" Sean howled angrily.
