Is that the Floating City quietly suspended over the eastern seas?


    Lis sat up from the bed, his expression grave.


    To be honest, this was beyond his imagination—it was a still-functioning Floating City!


    Having a Floating City was a temptation even Legendary Mages couldn''t resist, let alone others.


    Although Lis had anticipated something, he truly hadn''t expected the Kane family''s secret to be that Az Floating City.


    Controlling a Floating City required at least one Legendary Mage, so when Risa advanced to be a Legend, that Floating City truly appeared in the world!


    However, Lis suddenly recalled a past event.


    After the Legendary Mage Az and the Shadow Dancer repelled an invading Legendary Mage, these two Legendary Strongmen did not start establishing power right away; instead, they drove the Floating City all the way toward the Feis Kingdom''s capital, Bright City.


    When the Floating City was less than a hundred kilometers from Bright City, it was intercepted by the Feis Kingdom''s Legendary Warrior "Blood Rose Princess" Taya Fis and Legendary Monk "Broken Mountain" Avin Dern.


    It''s unclear what caused the conflict between them, but the four Legendary Strongmen battled fiercely in those mountains. Many yers were present at the time, so videos of the fight spread.


    Lis had seen them. It was one of the rarerge brawls among several Legendary Strongmen early in the game, turning the mountain range where the battle took ce to ashes.


    Latter, under the mediation of "Judgement me" Fran Stephens, both sides ceased fighting and departed.


    Although the oue of that battle wasn''t known, some signs afterward suggested that the Feis Kingdom came out worse.


    After that great battle, Az Floating City settled near the eastern coastal area of the continent, precisely where the former Boditch Kingdom was situated.


    By then, version 2.0 of the game''s main storyline "Total War" had ended, and the Boditch Kingdom hadpletely be part of history, incorporated into the Feis Kingdom.


    The Feis Kingdom could no longer restrict people from going to Az Floating City, and all the supplies needed by the Floating City were provided by the Feis Kingdom at low prices.


    Since that battle, the rtionship between Az Floating City and the Feis Kingdom had been quite harmonious—there was no longer a feeling of strained hostility, which puzzled many yers.


    What was it that caused these two Legendary Strongmen to go to such lengths?


    And what exactly did the Feis Kingdom sacrifice to resolve this conflict?


    After all, it involved two Legendary figures and a Floating City—this setup was enough to obliterate some smaller countries!


    Lis from a previous life couldn''t figure it out, but now, as an insider, he seemed to vaguely grasp something.


    Could it be because of his assassination by the Second Prince in his previous life?


    If that were the case, many things would be exined!


    Why did Joyce and Risa, after gaining sufficient power, immediately be hostile to the Feis Kingdom?


    Why did the Second Prince Yatean appear so infrequentlyter on, and even then, eventually disappearedpletely?


    Could it be... the price the Feis Kingdomter paid was...


    Wow, if that''s the case, Yatean is kind of pitiful!


    He lost his throne and ended up with a grim fate.


    But no matter, Lis didn''t have much sympathy for the Second Prince; on the contrary, he was actually preparing to trick the Prince.


    Come to think of it, tricking him was also a way to protect him.


    Otherwise, should he really let Joyce negotiate with him?


    Thinking this way, I''m really too great!


    Yatean should thank me!


    Lis thought to himself smugly, feeling absolutely justified in tricking someone—it''s the best feeling.


    Regarding Joyce and Risa''s identities and the Kane family''s secrets, Lis decided to keep quiet for now.


    He had no intention of asking Joyce,n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    "Joyce, does my family own a Floating City?"


    But Lis couldn''t exin where this information came from, especially since the Kane family had kept such a low profile for so long, possibly to control the Floating City.


    If he really brought it up, the likelihood of Joyce honestly confessing was lower than the possibility of Joyce capturing Lis to study whether he was possessed by some other soul.


    After figuring out most of the issues, Lis felt relieved; recently, many strange things had happened to him, which had been quite stressful.


    Now, he felt at ease, knowing that as long as he was in Bright City, he had at least two Legendary figures behind him, and he was well-acquainted with two future Legendary Strongmen. It couldn''t be more secure.


    Naturally, this made Lis''s desire to be a Legendary Mage even stronger!


    In terms of Talent, he was not inferior to Taya and Risa and naturally harbored the ambition to be a Legendary Mage.


    It was time to n well, he could not stay in Bright City forever!


    An easy life was indeedfortable, and a Mage''s advancement did indeed require spending a lot of time in closed-door research, but that did not mean he should only work in istion.


    If theory could not be applied to practice, it would be utterly meaningless.


    Moreover, there were so many hidden treasures and opportunities buried across the continent that Lis did not want to miss.


    Take it slow, after the Sacrificial Festival is over!


    Lis got up from the bed, ignoring the still sound asleep Ang, and headed to the basementboratory.


    He needed to make the most of every minute!


    -----------------


    Midnight, outside Bright City.


    A handsome man with a sturdy physique appeared from the darkness, quietly watching the brightly lit Bright City in the night.


    This was the Vampire Marion, who had hurriedlye from the south, standing there quietly, as if sensing something.


    "Strange, why is there no scent of my kin, but rather a few disgusting hybrids?"


    Marion scratched his head, muttering to himself.


    Something wasn''t right. Lord Burns had sent him to Bright City to find the Divine Son named Ang, who was surely a pure member of the Blood n. However, he could only sense the aura of Fallen Vampires.


    The dirty, desire-filled, greedy and revolting scent made Marion frown.


    That wasn''t supposed to happen; Lord Cain''s oracle couldn''t be wrong. She must be hiding, or inside some Barrier concealing her aura.


    This was going to be troublesome!


    Marion, believing he would easily fulfill his task, scratched his head again, a gesture he often made when troubled.


    "I''ll just have to search slowly; I can''t just go back like this."


    Thinking this, a peaceful smile appeared on Marion''s face.


    "If I happen to encounter those Fallen hybrids while searching for the Divine Son, there''s nothing I can do but intervene."


    "I''m sure Lord Burns wouldn''t me me, after all, I''m just trying toplete my mission!"


    Marion chuckled as he looked ahead at Bright City and slowly walked forward.


    In the night, Marion''s form turned into a pitch-ck mass, flying toward Bright City.


    The arrival of the shadow of war meant that Bright City would wee more visitors, many more indeed!
