Chapter 115: Nine-tailed_4
As for the threat of the Tier Six Mage.
Unless the Holy Light Church falls, the Church will never abandon its mission to eradicate wizards.
However, now with the weakening seal of the Black Forest and the appearance of the Tier Six Mage, it all indicates that the Demon Tide is about to arrive.
...
Silver Moon Royal Capital.
The face of the Silver Moon Archbishop was as dark as storm clouds.
The news of Hillman's death was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Church. Although this Tier Five Peak Knight acted aggressively, his influence could not be underestimated.
His demise means that the influence of the Silver Moon Church in the Northern Lands will be greatly diminished.
Especially with regards to his plans in the Northern Lands, it would have a very significant impact.
"We must quickly assess the current situation and respond accordingly," the Archbishop said to the cardinals gathered around him. "The appearance of the Tier Six Mage may indicate the resurgence of magic power, aligning with the prophecy of the Demon Tide."
"We need to report this to His Holiness the Church and strengthen defenses in all areas, especially those with higher concentrations of elements."
The worries of the Saintess Lucia were not unfounded. The conflict between the Church and wizards had been longstanding. The existence of a Tier Six Mage not only posed a direct threat to the Silver Moon Church but also possibly destabilized the entire kingdom's order.
"Notify all dioceses to be vigilant and prepare to deal with potential conflicts," the Silver Moon Archbishop issued command after command. "At the same time, search for clues about that Tier Six Mage. We cannot stand idly by."
With these instructions issued, the actions of the Silver Moon Church quickly unfolded. The intelligence network began to search for any information about the Tier Six Mage while strengthening communication with the royal family and nobility to ensure that in the forthcoming turbulence, the Silver Moon Kingdom and the Church stood together against the wizard threat!
...
This scene continued to play out throughout the Silver Moon Kingdom.
The entire Silver Moon Kingdom was also shaken by the appearance of the Tier Six Earth Mage!
Silently, everyone was making the decisions they thought were right.
This was undoubtedly good news for the witches of Frost Wolf Ridge.
Annie looked at the information returned by the messenger in her hand, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on her face.
With a Tier Six Earth Mage protecting them, the wizards of the Silver Moon Kingdom would certainly be safer.
But after carefully reading through the details, she was somewhat puzzled.
Last time, due to Beibing City and the Church's deliberate information blockade, Annie was not aware of the specifics of that battle.
But she knew that the Lord Duke, relying on the Earth Mage's power, had successfully repelled the Demon Hunter Hillman and safely returned to Frost Wolf Ridge.
But now.
She received news that another Tier Six Earth Mage was hidden in the Northern Lands.
Furthermore, this Tier Six Earth Mage had brutally killed Hillman in Beibing City.
The moment she saw the news, she thought of the Lord Duke, who was also a powerful wizard mastering Earth Power.
Only.
Could it be that the Lord Duke is a Tier Six Mage?
Her heart couldn't help but beat rapidly, although it was incredible, she had a feeling that it might be true.
The Lord Duke just happened to have left Frost Wolf Ridge a few days ago.
Thinking of this, she could no longer hold back and left the Wizard Castle, heading towards Frost Wolf Castle.
This was her second time coming to Frost Wolf Castle.
Fortunately, the Guardian Knight of the castle recognized this sixth lady of the Lord Duke.
After receiving the notice, David came out of the castle and was slightly taken aback when he saw Annie, "Is something wrong?"
Annie gazed blankly at the Lord Duke.
On her way, her mood gradually calmed down.
She believed that whether or not the Lord Duke was this Tier Six Earth Knight, the Lord Duke would definitely protect them.
This was something she had verified many times in their interactions, and now it didn't matter if she asked or not.
"It's nothing, I just missed you," Annie said shyly.
David's heart immediately brightened. Annie rarely took the initiative like this.
Without any hesitation, amid Annie's surprised exclamation, he picked her up in his arms and strode towards the interior of the castle.
The maids around watched this scene and all sensibly lowered their heads.
David carried Annie straight back to his room, laid her down on the large bed, and let his hands roam.
Annie closed her eyes tightly, having already prepared herself.
Time slowly passed.
Suddenly, she felt a wave of energy flowing within her.
But before she could say anything, she suddenly felt a surge of energy converge towards her heart.
"Is this... my Ice Bear Bloodline?" Annie opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Even she didn't know she possessed the Ice Bear Bloodline, now it unexpectedly awakened!
"Awakened the bloodline?" David laughed.
He could clearly sense the changes within Annie.
Annie regained her senses, her face showing a hesitant expression. Although there was no mistaking this bloodline energy, she still found it hard to believe.
"Come, let your husband check it for you."
"Um, wait, wait."
Hiss——
Annie drew in a slight breath of cold air.
"What, still uncomfortable?" David asked concernedly.
Originally, he thought awakening the Arctic Giant Bear Bloodline could help Annie overcome her sensitivity.
But now it seemed that awakening the Arctic Giant Bear Bloodline could indeed improve Annie's physical strength, but she remained very sensitive.
"A little."
Annie panted lightly.
Now, she was fully certain that she had awakened her bloodline power, and the change in physical strength was the best proof.
