Witch, Fireball and the Evil God of Steam

This means that the current motorcycle technology still has flaws and cannot be widely popularized, otherwise, it is very likely to turn normal racing competitions into violent motorcycle events.

Ethan temporarily put aside his little quirks about wind elements and asked, "Mr. Palansi, what brings you here from afar this time?"

For an "Empire's strongest" person who died hundreds of years ago to return to the capital, this is not a common phenomenon.

Palansi was momentarily at a loss for words.

But even though the situation of the conversation was completely different from what he imagined, he still confessed, "My mission this trip is to introduce you and Miss Lindong to become members of the organization."

He specifically included Ethan in this.

"Is it an organization like an elderly club?"

Ethan's single sentence nearly gave Palansi a stroke; he took a deep breath and said, "Divine Attendants, that is our identity."

Palansi couldn't help but recall the scene of his first encounter with the Divine Attendants.

At that time, all remnants of the old era had been purified by the Holy Hall Knights, Henry I established the Empire, everything was thriving, and he was elderly, leaving the Holy Hall, returning to his hometown, quietly waiting for their era to end, until one night, a man who called himself a Divine Attendant silently broke into his mansion.

407 years.

This was the number given to him by the Divine Attendant.

The Empire would be destroyed in 407 years.

And now, in the 406th year of the Empire's establishment, Henry VI had passed away.

"This is a decay period that every civilization will go through."

"Decay period?"

"You must have noticed that the Empire's library has almost no detailed records of other eras. If you use the establishment of the Empire by Henry I as the benchmark, this would be the sixth era experienced by humanity."

Palansi paused slightly and said, "This is the 406th year since the Empire's establishment, according to our predictions, in the following year, the Red Plague will spread in the capital, the royal bloodline will be forced to migrate to other cities, during which Evil God's Followers will incite rebellions everywhere, following which the Empire will enter a long decay period lasting a century."

And now, the predicted result has been changed.

The current Empire is like a carriage that is about to fall apart at any moment, but has been glued back together by another unforeseen force.

Ethan merely nodded, not refuting.

Palansi's age is even more ancient than the duration of the Empire's existence.

The elderly have their advantages; although their bodies are frail and their legs are inconvenient, they know enough things, including many segments of history never recorded.

"Simply put, the duty of the Divine Attendants is to secretly help humanity through the most dangerous decay period to reach the moment a new civilization is born. This is also... the hope of the True God."

Over 400 years ago, one night, Palansi also heard similar words in his home.

"But things have gotten better now, haven't they?"

The other side spoke.

She vaguely remembered that before they set off for the capital, Rowena did a divination, and the result of the divination... was not ideal.

She witnessed the destruction of the capital through the divination crystal ball, seeing the residents of the capital transformed by the plague into twisted creations in the style of Old Ba's art.

Generally speaking, the results of her divinations are quite accurate, and the impacts that appear in the crystal ball always happen, except this time, the "future" was rewritten.

Palansi activated the Holy Seal, and the silver light formed several barriers, enclosing the few people within.

What he was going to say next couldn't be heard by bystanders.

"The First Era, known as the Enlightenment Era."

Silver-white light dots split from his palm scattered across the dining table, rapidly converging into magnificent buildings visible to the naked eye, the table at this moment was the miniature of this continent, accompanied by Palansi's deep voice, they seemed to be experiencing the process of civilization rising and falling.

"That was the end period of the True God's existence. Humans established an organization called 'Academy', and at that time the Academy's research was not limited to elemental shaping magic, it encompassed all paths known to humanity. People of that time believed that knowledge and wisdom were the most precious treasures they could create."

As Palansi changed his tone, the sound of thunder roared in their ears, and the buildings constructed from silver light were instantly demolished by lightning, crumbling before their eyes. "In the 387th year after the 'Academy' was established, the sixth headmaster heard an echo from another dimension. The echo promised him more knowledge, more wisdom. In the 388th year, this powerful Elemental Shaper excitedly announced his discovery to people, resulting in them all catching a disease called 'magic addiction'. They fell into madness, creating many spells that even they couldn't control. To suppress the spread of 'magic addiction', the headmaster destroyed the Academy's magic network, which almost instantly cut off connections between places..."

"This is content mentioned in the 'Disaster of Magic Addiction'."

Miss Lindong said, she had read this forbidden book in the Academy's library, "Destroying the magic network not only failed to suppress the spread of 'magic addiction', it also led to the Academy losing control over the situation in various places, many cities were destroyed by forbidden spells."

She was personally very disappointed with this book.

Because in strict terms, it was a history book, telling the process of the Academy's peak leading to decline, the sixth headmaster was regarded as the sinner of the Academy and was expelled from the Academy.
