Chapter 976 Lauren’s Proposal
Chapter 976 Lauren’s Proposal
While Lina and Nova were still in the city where they had been living since Vicente left for the Supreme Continent, Lauren was a long way from the Chutha Dynasty, the kingdom she was currently queen of.
After her awakening just over 22 months ago, Lauren hunted her sixth pentagram alongside the elf who had waited for her awakening. Soon after, she was reunited with the Fuller family at Annie’s current home, where she shared Vicente’s last moments before his departure.
She had made a point of explaining how he had achieved the most incredible configuration of pentagrams possible, giving his family more confidence that he would succeed.
Such information had made Vicente’s family, friends and allies even more determined, with realistic hopes that he would keep his end of the bargain made with the beasts of Majestic Treefrog Grove. They just needed to do their part and, eventually, they would have the opportunity to go to the Supreme Continent and meet him again.
That was what most of the people who knew him believed at the time.
In the meantime, the information spread by Lauren had transformed and reached people far beyond friends, family, and allies.
With almost two years since she left her seclusion, rumors about Vicente’s legendary pentagram combination had now become commonplace across the continent.
Monsters and mortal humans alike knew how phenomenal he had been, with one side fearful of another such kind of individual emerging on the continent again, while the other side eagerly awaited the birth or emergence of others who could carry his position.
But while the continent’s population of magical creatures had popularized knowledge of Vicente’s magical configuration, Lauren had moved around quite a bit. After her brief stint in the Fuller family’s secret residence, she acted on her brother’s behalf, spreading Cataclysm Order altars across the continent while fighting monsters.
After almost two years of acting, she had been the major driving force that had brought stability to human territories and increased human dominance. Because of her actions, 60% of the continent was now under human control, an impressive milestone that had not been matched since the beginning of the cataclysm.
After almost two years of hard work, she was gradually slowing down her pace, giving her forces a chance to fight for themselves and thus grow stronger, while she began to prepare for her future struggles.
Now Lauren was in Majestic Treefrog Grove, alongside the Dragons, Elves and other powerful beings of the human alliance against the vampires and monsters.
…
In a relatively flat spot in the heart of Majestic Treefrog Grove, a group of beasts of different races were gathered in front of an immense lake in the area, but without the disorganization and chaos of gatherings of low-level beings.
In one of the strongest areas of the entire continent, only Archmages were there at the moment, surrounding a woman with short black hair and sharp black eyes.
Around Lauren, two Intermediate Archmages, Vicente’s former companions, were supporting her as she spoke about the current situation with the leaders of the tribes in this forest region.
Acidbelly and Tenglin, two of Vicente’s old companions, were now accompanying Lauren on her journeys, having joined her about six months ago.
They heard her talking to the beings gathered there. “… We’ve reached a point where we should let our secondary and junior specialists enjoy the battlefield and win their own glory. Let’s not fool ourselves. Quickly conquering more of the continent’s wastelands won’t make much difference to us in the short term.
What might make a difference is if we find the lair of the 6th stage vampires and strike while they are in seclusion. As such, I propose this council approves the withdrawal of our top specialists around the continent. I want these experts focused on cultivating in seclusion for the next four years, when it will be time for us to move.
In the meantime, our secondary men must find enemy traces and clues to the location of the vampire lair. We will attack with all the power we have in four years!”
She finished announcing her proposal to these tribes, the step she thought would be decisive in ending the calamity ravaging the continent.
In about eight years, the war against the vampires and their monstrous allies would end one way or another. Either the strongest vampires would wipe out the strongest of this alliance and have full control over the continent, or Lauren’s side would have already beaten them by that time and would lead their forces, little by little, to restore Polaris Realm.
Either way, the war wouldn’t last much longer!
Aware that they would have a final fight in another eight years at most, the leaders of the surrounding tribes knew they had to act before this interval ended.
“I agree with Lauren Fuller. Let’s pull back our major forces and focus on preparing for the worst,” said one of the dragons Vicente had gotten years ago.
The leader of the elves nodded in approval. “My people will focus on finding the exact location where the 6th stage vampires are cultivating. We will attack together with the coalition in four years from now.” freёweɓnovel.com
The big, brown-feathered, gigantic Roc that had come across Vicente in the past took a deep breath, seeing that they were going to have another large-scale 6th stage confrontation in the continent’s north.
Years ago, the Magician’s Alliance had done the same against Demien Bloodthorne to stop the advance of plans related to The Purification. Now, once again, the continent would see another massive battle to stop the vampires from succeeding in their plans.
“I hope we win on this occasion. We’ll be staking everything on this attack. If we fail, the enemies won’t even need to advance to the Intermediate level to have the continent for themselves.”
Lauren said, “If our lives aren’t over in four years, they’ll be over in eight. But our chances of victory in four years will be 10 times greater. So I’m willing to take the risk.”
Following her words, other tribe leaders continued to agree, until everyone, by unanimity, decided to follow what she had proposed.
Soon, the continent would begin a new phase of its journey, this time an era led by Lauren and the beasts of Majestic Treefrog Grove!
