Chapter 796 Grave News
"Why did the Five Commandments attack the Hall of Power? It is because a powerful existence has been born here. The son of my ancestor is an unprecedented event that hasn't occurred in the entire history of Imperium. It alarmed a lot of gods and before we realized it, the Five Commandments demolished the entire Hall of Power."
Governor Ray paused before he added, "It is said that my ancestor's son is connected to their goal. We didn't know who spread this rumor but God's Will demolished us even though there's no proof. I think they are afraid of something. My ancestor's son quickly rose to the power and challenge everyone. A huge battle occurred here that almost extinguished the population of the Hall Plains."
Alice wanted to ask something but Governor Ray interrupted her.
"Let's start. We couldn't stay here for a long time. I'm afraid that I won't be able to enter this place for the next few months. I have used all the time that is given to me." Governor Ray said.
Alice nodded. She knew that Governor Ray was right. This place have many restrictions and no one could probably force their way in here. Even Hero rank would die if they tried to enter this place by force. After all, a god was the one that created this place.
...
Alice recalled the conversation in the underground base. There was a corpse of a god in that place and once news about it spread out, she knew that it would throw the entire Hall Plains into a chaotic situation.
"The Hall of Power is back... I need to make a move now. I will bring my troops toward the Spring Land." Governor Ray said.
"You will go to Spring Land? What about the Mine Valley?" Alice asked.
"That's why there are other members of the Dragon Council. I'm leaving you and the rest of the Heads to deal with the tribes from the Earthen Woods while I go to the Spring Land. I will expand our scope of influence along the way." Governor Ray added, "We have less than two weeks before the Mountain of Demise fully exploded..."
"I see..." Alice nodded as she lifted her head and looked at the crimson net that covered the sky.
Governor Ray didn't waste his time as he quickly assembled three thousand troops. After he assembled his troops, he packed all the rations that they would need in their march. He would conquer a few areas in the Spring Land and head toward the Mountain of Demise. He would open up a path for others.
Alice was preparing to leave Bland City and return to Ekatoe City when a guard approached her.
"L-Lady Alice..." The guard was breathing heavily and his expression was pale. It seems that he ran here as soon as he heard something important.
"Calm down and slowly tell me what happened..." Alice said to the guard. The expression of the guard already told her that this was very important.
"The White Wheat City..." The guard lifted his head and looked at Alice.
...
In a faraway place...
A man was sitting on a throne with his eyes closed. In the next second, he opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
"It seems that something has occurred. Let me see it..." A surprised look appeared on his face as he turned his gaze to the window. "To think that there are fools that wanted to awaken the No God Emperor. They are asking to die. The Commandments will not tolerate it."
He stood up and a dark furry cape appeared on his back. He combed his messy hair with his fingers before he walked down on the throne.
This man was Esquin also known as the Ruler of Gluttony.
"I haven't even started my plan yet a lot of interesting events had occurred in that short amount of time. Lately, the Imperium mourned and now..."
Esquin's figure slowly disappeared as he walked into the darkness.
"This isn't a good sign..."
...
Souta opened his eyes and saw a group of people in front of him. He narrowed his eyes as he recognized Princess Yaniesvyl. The others were probably experts from the Heiro Kingdom.
He moved his eyes away from them and looked at the Mountain of Demise. He still had a little bit of time left. Souta wanted more time so that he could use his equipment skills once again.
"Umm... Excuse me, Sir..." A voice sounded beside him.
Souta turned his head and looked at Princess Yaniesvyl's group. All of them were experts above C-rank. No ordinary people were present among them. Well, he could understand it since the radiation caused by the battle hasn't disappeared yet. So ordinary people would only die from suffocation if they appeared in this area.
Only B-rank and above who could properly use their energy to fully protect their bodies could handle the radiation.

"What is it?" Souta asked.
"We just wanted to thank you for saving some of us." Princess Yaniesvyl bowed. She glanced at him and added, "Also, can I know who are they?"
She was talking about Lord Dramus and the others.
Souta laughed at her words.
"There's no need to thank me. You're thanking me after I destroyed your kingdom. Well, it's not my intention but it's a fact that my attacks demolished almost everything in this place. Also, I don't think I saved any of you, you are the one that saved yourself."
With the intense pressure of the battle before, ordinary experts wouldn't be able to survive at that time. Souta also didn't have much time to save them as it would be fatal for him if he didn't focus his attention on the enemy. After all, he was fighting that Sir Draymond and the others alone.
"As for their group... That last person mentioned something like the Hall of Power. Did it ring any bells?" Souta glanced at them from the corner of his eyes.
"Hall of Power...?" Princess Yaniesvyl widened her eyes.
"Oh, it seems you knew something about them. Care to tell me?" Souta smiled.
His information about the Hall of Power only came from the Mince Hand. He wanted to gather more information about his enemy before he fought them once again.
He carefully listened to her words. The Heiro Kingdom has a bit of understanding about the past overlord of the entire Hall Plains. The other experts didn't know about this information except for Princess Yaniesvyl and the other members of the royal family. Maybe this was also one of the reasons why the Hall of Power targeted them.
After a while, Princess Yaniesvyl has finished telling Souta everything that she knows. She just stayed on the side while staring at him. He was a warrior from the Holy Land. His identity alone was enough for them to respect him.
"Hmm..." Souta rubbed his chin. He was looking at the system. He just completed the Quest 2 of the Chain Quest.
*Ding!*
[You've completed Quest 2!]
[You've received 10,000,000 experience points, 10 free attribute points, and 5 skill points!]
Souta turned his eyes and glanced at the details of Quest 3.
[Hall of Power] Quest 3: The Hall of Power has returned. They will use the Mountain of Demise to achieve their goal. Defeat fifty members of the Hall of Power.
Rewards: 10,000,000 experience points, 15 free attribute points, and 8 skill points
Looking at this he realized that this wasn't the final quest. It seems that there's more to this scheme set up by the enemies. Quest 3 was probably easier than the previous quests where he had to go to various cities and gather information. Hall of Power had other members and he would probably be able to complete this quest if he eliminated those low-level members of the Hall of Power.
"Sir..." Princess Yaniesvyl wanted to ask something.
"Souta, that's my name," Souta said to her then he pointed at the mountain. "You wanted to know about that, right?"
Princess Yaniesvyl nodded her head.
"That's the Mountain of Demise. You can see the red net that covered the sky. It means that we are trapped in this place. The entire Hall Plains are sealed along with that mountain. No, it is better to say that it fused with the seals. No person could go inside right now and no person could go out. Everything will be decided in that giant mountain." Souta explained to her slowly so that she could understand the threat of the Mountain of Demise.
"Isn't that dangerous, Sir Souta?" Princess Yaniesvyl asked.
"Yeah, it's dangerous but I'm not in a condition to fight again. The battle just now consumed a lot of my energy. I need to recover first." Souta explained to her the reason why he wasn't making a move.
Suddenly, he stopped and felt something in his pocket. Souta reached his hand and found that it was the transmission talisman.
He took it out and poured a little bit of his energy. What faced him was Alice's strong voice.
"Souta! Something occurred here! The White Wheat City has fallen! Elder Guan is dead! Yuko is heavily injured! And Yenxa is missing!"
