He did not expect a turn for the worse in such a short time.
The monsters underground in the wilderness ran riot because of the blood rain. The plane of the higher race in the dungeon, the Nagas, fused with it.
One could imagine how much turmoil there would be in the future.
Twilight City’s arsenal, research base, and raw material production base for the Black Sorbet Ice Cream were all set up here.
The impact on Twilight City would be fatal once the enemies destroyed them.
The king of decay on the surface directly opened a spatial passageway to a place dozens of kilometers away from Twilight City.
The dark evil god who held power is the ruler of the abyss.
They pressed the blade against Richard’s throat.
The wisp of power of authority on the god’s ancient tree was the paramount provocation. The other party couldn’t let it go.
Rules would still restrict the dimensional planes that merged with the primary plane. That could have been the only good news.
The more powerful an existence was, the more restrictions one would face after one entered the primary plane. The gods couldn’t descend.
That was the basic rule of the mortal plane. And that hadn’t changed since ancient times.
Hence, only the power of an ultimate creator could break this restriction.
Richard sighed at the crimson desert after he calmed down.
He quickly left and returned to the Lord’s Mansion with a solemn gaze.
Richard occupied the main seat. He waved his hand to dismiss the plump kitchen maid who had brewed the hot tea and took out a gray-colored dwarf stone statue.
A power had carved a lifelike dwarf on it. It wasn’t cold to the touch but was extremely warm and moist.
Richard shortly rubbed it, and its spiritual power spread out. He immersed the statue with his power.
Richard awakened the god of dwarves in the grave of the gods. He had infused his divine power. That eventually led to the rise of the dark soul eater, Kratos, under the influence of several forces.
However, this supreme existence fell into a deep slumber due to over-exhaustion.
Richard left the dungeon and constantly injected the power of yellow sand to nurture it. The Crimson Moon rose, and the statue sparingly moved a few hours later.
The situation had changed too quickly and hindered many Twilight City plans. He needed to hear the prediction of the future from the dwarf god to verify new ones.
His spiritual power sank deep into the statue.
A familiar scene appeared in his mind.
The dwarf god, Fam Morgery, sat on a majestic throne.
Fam wore a gorgeous feathered cape, a silver crown, and a gemstone ring. Its one hand supported its cheek and slept with a slightly tilted head.
The power devoured a terrifying existence who had once stepped into the river of fate in the “Shininge Era” to spy on the destiny of all living beings. But it did not die.
Only this being, by all odds, could give Richard significant information in this chaotic situation.
The Dwarf God was short but could protrude an oppressive feeling like a giant.
It could still make one’s heart palpitate even though it couldn’t open its eyes.
Richard perceived that the lifeform that slept on the throne did not seem to be a dwarf shorter than a human but an ancient dragon. The world would lose its color when it opened its eyes.
Richard took a deep breath and was about to wake the Dwarf God up when it slowly opened it eyes.
It sat up straight and stared at its soul body with eyes as deep as the vast stars.
“Lord Richard, long time no see…”
The god of dwarves swept its gaze around as it spoke. It was like its vision penetrated countless dimensional planes.
“I can sense that an ancient existence would soon return. A mystery of the laws would awaken some energy that had slept for a long time.”
The Dwarf God’s tone carried a hint of unconcealable joy.
“The world is coming alive… Several powers in the past had fallen into slumber due to the changes in the laws.”
“The new era is more exciting than I have imagined.”
That agitated Richard’s heart.
‘The world was coming alive…’ These words implied a paramount meaning.
“Your Excellency Fam, I need your help.”
The Dwarf God looked at Richard deeply.
“I couldn’t overpower the main plane with my current strength… The rules that bind me still exist. I can’t help you much.”
The hesitation didn’t discourage Richard. He sighed and continued.
“Your Excellency Fam, the king of decay attempted to enter the primary plane and attack Twilight City…Is there any way to stop the king?”
Richard couldn’t clash head-on with the king now that the situation was unstable and unpredictable.
He hopes to delay the king at least a month or two so Twilight City can confidently prepare for this overbearing enemy.
The Dwarf God said in a deep voice it pondered.
“I can already sense the smell of decay… However, I can’t stop an existence that holds authority now. At most, I could delay the king from opening a spatial gate.”
Richard’s eyes lit up.
“That would be a great help!”
All that Richard wanted was to delay the Decay King’s attack.
His tone was gravely stern.
“Please help me!”
The Dwarf God stared into Richard’s eyes for long before it sighed.
“Wait a moment, place the statue in that area… However, this could only delay the king for two months, at most.”
Richard’s eyes caught fire.
“That would be enough!”
Twilight City could prepare in two months.
The Dwarf God’s offer lifted the heaviest rock that pressed Richard’s chest. He heaved a sigh of relief. He calmed down and continued.
“Your Excellency Fam, a new era would soon land. I would like to seek your advice.”
The short figure on the throne narrowed its eyes.
“The path of the future is no longer clear… One could no longer see it. Chaos blinds the hopeful eyes.”
“Lord Richard, I only have one piece of advice… The grace mainland overlord is the choice of the world power. In your hands will give rise to a new era.”
