Chapter 625: Chapter 317: Lord of Scarlet

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, January 1st: Over seven hundred thousand alchemists have arrived in Dongwu City; the number of alchemists here has surpassed a million, perhaps accounting for 99% of all alchemists in the Dawn era.

Everyone wants to witness this grand event, and many are eagerly signing up for the construction of the Celestial City. Everyone knows this will be a miracle, the pinnacle of Alchemy. However... I am just a scholar...]

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, June 1st: The construction of the Celestial City has begun, the steel ground is taking form, but the Magic Power in Dongwu City is becoming more abundant, which is a delight.

It’s Lady Diane’s birthday, truly magnificent.....]

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, August 3rd: The Federation’s clearing has ended, the east advanced seventy thousand kilometers, while the other three directions covered forty thousand kilometers each, seemingly due to some obstructions, and Mr. Luo Men was seriously injured.]

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, September 1st: Dawn has connected with the Sea Race, and it’s said they’re preparing to connect with the Stars, though who knows how long this will take. What I do know is that order is looking more hopeful.

But the obstacles have grown as well, reportedly due to something called... a Divine Envoy.]

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, September 15th: The line of order is retracting, with the east also facing obstacles. The Netherworld’s army seems to be fighting on two fronts, but the City Lord refused to fight them. The eastern border ended at five hundred thousand kilometers, a significant distance, representing the many newly emerging nations.

The progress of the Celestial City has also accelerated, with the framework supporting it already completed. It’s time to excavate underground...]

[Dawn Calendar Year 1545, September 27th: I have signed up for the underground excavation work of the Celestial City. As an Arcane Mage, I should be able to help, but... the sky has turned red at this moment...]

A young man put down his pen, looked at the scarlet sky, then bowed his head to write four characters: [Is it... a Divine Envoy?]

When he looked up again, the revered figure, the familiar face of the statue in the park, appeared in mid-air.

The young man watched intently, but as an Alchemy Energy Shield enveloped the entire city, he felt reassured, yet couldn’t help but worry.

Who dares to come directly to the border seems... extraordinary...

Baiyi’s eyes were somewhat heavy; he glanced at his own level. The construction of the Celestial City required many things, and this year, he had reached Level 84.

A Tier Four Legendary, yet he still felt great pressure.

Baiyi’s face was very calm, his eyes had a hint of scarlet, he raised his head and looked at the sky, his body continuously ascending.

”Your Excellency, Lord of Scarlet, since you’re here, there’s no need to hide.”

Baiyi’s voice traveled far.

Three Divine Envoys have already appeared in Dawn, besides the Lord of Scarlet, the other two suffered at the hands of Luo Men.

Star Core B07, Barrett Fierce Sun, both are powerful artifacts.

Even in High Tier battles, they can exert considerable pressure on the opponent.

Buzz~

In the scarlet sky, a golden-haired youth with scarlet eyes, clad in a blood-red magic robe, parted the clouds, slowly descending bathed in divine light.

He gazed at Baiyi, finally stopping at a height one position higher than Baiyi.

”Divine Abomination...” the Lord of Scarlet asked expressionlessly, ”Do you intend to use what we created to resist us?”

”I have no choice, Your Eminence’s rule is not to my liking, so I only wish for Your Eminence to be unable to rule us.” Baiyi’s words were respectful, but his tone was cold, their expressions much the same.

Below, in the city, each city gate had increased to ten Star Core B07s, all aimed at the divine presence above, ready to fire lasers to support Baiyi at any time.

”Interesting...”

The Lord of Scarlet’s eyes were indifferent: ”I sense a familiar aura from you, telling me that it was you who awakened it, and brought it to me. Is this true?”

Many pieces of information flashed through Baiyi’s mind.

He immediately understood the seemingly nonsensical question from the Lord of Scarlet.

Embrace of Suffering!

He had a profound impression of that mask.

Pu Sheng had altered causality, exonerating himself and transferring the blame to Baiyi.

”No, I delivered it to the Abyss.” Baiyi shook his head, extending his hand: ”What I wish to present to Your Eminence is this.”

Buzz~

Golden brilliance flickered.

Two golden spheres, each ten centimeters in diameter, orbited in his hand.

Under Baiyi’s deliberate allocation of resources, the Sun Divine Teaching had produced another piece of Divine Power.

And this Divine Power ultimately formed the second version of [Sun Praise: Lava, Fierce Sun, God].

The Lord of Scarlet cast his gaze over: ”Sun God... a troublesome fellow...”

He looked at Baiyi and pondered for a moment: ”The trouble it brought me, I will blame on the Abyss, yet this world is, after all, one where the strong prey on the weak, I do not resent those Pseudo-Gods, and now, you also interest me. Your led faction can pledge allegiance to me, and I can assure you, the attention of those entities outside will be diverted from here.”

”Until I grow weary... you will all be safe.”

Baiyi bowed slightly: ”Apologies, we cannot reach Your Eminence’s realm. The cruelty of the Ancient Gods’ history is why we cherish the New Gods. Before I die, order will not vanish, nor will it surrender.”

The Lord of Scarlet nodded, looking expressionlessly towards the Federation’s territory: ”Order is established by the strong, and in my inability to descend, you indeed have the ability to establish order.”

”However, while he is sufficient, you are lacking...”

As the Lord of Scarlet spoke, he turned, and the scarlet enveloping the sky moved eastward, showing no intention of taking action.
