Chapter 2701 - 901: Helms’ Men Are Never Late, Nor Are They Early_2
Today’s Polluted Swamp is not the same as before; it’s best to be cautious without Avalon’s blessing.
When they saw the Grand Duke of Triss standing on the head of a legendary serpent whose bare neck was more than thirty meters high, approaching Wolf Castle, even the most experienced Winter Wolf monks were left speechless.
They couldn’t find words to describe the scene before them.
Yes, many people knew about the legendary serpent Ningkinanka prowling in the Polluted Swamp. The Winter Wolf Religion had indeed confirmed that those powerful legendary creatures were not just a fool’s tale, but the issue was, no one had ever told them that Ningkinanka lived in groups?
Beside Lady Triss were seven adult legendary serpents. The Serpent Clan Chief was occasionally the largest among them, but even the slightly smaller female serpents were over twenty meters tall, truly moving like small mountains.
Additionally, there were five noticeably more mischievous juvenile serpents. They hid in the shadows of their parents, tilting their heads curiously at Wolf Castle and the small humans standing there looking up at them.
As the firstborn among the second generation of serpent blood descendants, young Carvendina naturally, like her father, became the leader of the juveniles. She let out a tender yet already quite authoritative roar, seemingly wanting to scare the Winter Wolf disciples and see them show the same trembling expression as the Swamp Tigers.
But the Winter Wolf priests were eager to return for the "Divine War," and had no time to play with a juvenile serpent who was over eight meters tall.
"Come on up!"
Standing atop the dignified head of the Serpent Clan Chief Oru, Triss waved her Lightning Wand, pretending to be a powerful legendary beast summoner, and called out:
"The mighty serpents can give you a ride. With their speed in the swamp, you’ll reach near Klim Fortress in just ten minutes. But deploying our Transia ’Decisive Battle Weapon’ is rare, and these serpents have big appetites. So, it’s up to you Nord people to reward them after the battle!"
"No problem, as long as we can rush to save our god! We’ll give whatever you need."
In critical moments, the Winter Wolf monks didn’t hold back.
With Master Yuri accompanying Lord Paryen to slay the god, the leader of this monk group was Master Yuri’s disciple, Lady Fafner. This devout ascetic bravely and swiftly climbed onto Oru’s enormous back, followed by other priests, who also brought along some vampire guards from Wolf Castle.
However, once the serpents resumed their journey, Lady Fafner immediately realized something was amiss. She pointed to the strange machinery swiftly moving through the swamp ahead and said:
"What is that? It looks like the legendary miracle of the creator?"
"Well, that’s also one of our Transia’s decisive battle weapons, a fully intelligent guardian."
Triss explained offhandedly:
"It’s a powerful machine intended to defend the mystic sites of Transia. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t leave the forbidden area, but the situation is certified as most critical by the curator, hence they’ve been granted temporary authorization to repel external threats.
Their battlefield ethical modules have been disabled, so you better not get too close to them.
Any entity showing hostility will be regarded as a target and subjected to resolute and decisive annihilation strikes."
"You... You’re sure this is Transia’s ultimate decisive battle weapon?"
Seeing Triss speaking so falsely, Lady Fafner couldn’t hold back, and she remarked:
"Though I may lack experience, Nordtov Domain is not without creator relics. This is clearly pure creator style; you must have found an intact site within the Polluted Swamp and miraculously gained its recognition...
God Su on high, fate truly favors the Transia people."
"Hmph, say what you like, but they now only follow my orders. If I say they’re Transia’s Hundred-Star War Behemoths, that’s what they are!"
Triss responded:
"Now I can command them to assist you; when the two countries are at war, they will become nightmares that make you scream in terror at night."
"The Winter Wolf Religion will not be your enemy. In these chaotic times, we must focus on preserving the welfare of the entire continent, rather than getting tangled in royal disputes. This point has been clearly decreed by my god."
Lady Fafner heard the implication in Triss’s words.
She solemnly reiterated the stance of the Winter Wolf Religion, which Triss neither confirmed nor denied. These followers of Su seem unaware of who convinced their god to stay out of the matter.
The serpents advanced rapidly through the swamp, almost in the blink of an eye traversing vast swathes of swamp, closing in on the war-torn Klim Fortress. Huggesen’s Wolf People seemed intent on picking up scraps from behind the wolf pack, therefore, God’s Chosen concentrated the Wolf People around the fortress’s flank.
Their position happened to be right in the midst of the path of the "Transia Decisive Battle Weapon & Hundred-Star Behemoth" moving towards Klim Fortress from the rear.
"Oru, see those fierce barbarians?"
Triss flapped her wings, hovering beside Oru, and whispered to the serpently concealed Serpent Clan Chief:
"Earlier, I told you that your father, Lord Fato, is trapped in our Land of Holy Blood, with Wolf People guarding the route through the Dark Mountain Range leading there. This prevents us from performing the Holy Blood Seal, which would allow you to connect with your father.
