Chapter 2006: Chapter 604: Why Did You Suddenly Want to Become Emperor?_3

Sophia Jones chose to garrison at Tunis City as it was the best choice, being a crucial route to the Old Continent, allowing for flexibility in both defense and offense.

But the current situation involves a "Plane Inspector."

Leonard Churchill could see from the details of the intelligence that the situation was developing with an ominous momentum.

This Southern Continent turmoil was not so simple.

Leonard Churchill also sensed a strong sense of crisis, despite his rapidly growing power, under the God Tier he feared almost no enemy.

Yet when facing the "existence" that even baffled several top experts of the Taren Dynasty, Leonard had no confidence.

Moreover, he now saw hidden clues on the Forbidden Ruins Stele left by predecessors of the Card Master Civilization.

Some things need to be prepared for in advance.

Leonard thought of this and took out a communication scroll, contacting Catherine Carter on the Old Continent and Camilla in the East Wilderness.

....

Several days later.

To the east of the Red Dragon Kingdom, in Tunis City.

A hundred miles northeast from here lies the endless World Rift leading to the Old Continent.

Tunis City boasts the largest Void Dragon Shipbuilding Factory on the Lan Continent and houses the best shipbuilding craftsmen of the Southern Continent.

Sophia Jones led the Rebellion Army to control this city, thus seizing the only chokepoint to the Old Continent.

The root cause of the current chaos in the Southern Continent was not resource plundering, but rather a conflict of faith.

So previously, several Ancient Gods, Divine Dragons, showed little interest in the Old Continent, allowing Sophia Jones to easily capture this large surrounding area.

On this day, outside Tunis City, the originally several dozen meters high city wall had been fortified to nearly a hundred meters.

Moreover, besides Magic Towers, the city walls were lined with large-caliber cannons.

On the walls, mechanical lifting equipment could be seen everywhere transporting stones to reinforce the walls, and many patrolling soldiers were equipped with mechanical equipment.

In the sky, along with Void Dragon Ships, several steam airships floated.

Outside the city, there were countless refugee tents.

At the city gate, refugees lined up in long queues, chaotic yet orderly waiting to enter the city.

Those queuing were not only commoners; there were also members of the noble class, dragging their families along, waiting to enter the city.

Constantly, large numbers of refugees from other places came pouring in.

They all wished to pass through Tunis City to seek refuge on the Old Continent.

Leonard Churchill and his group took several days to travel and arrived outside Tunis City.

From a distance, Isabel was captivated by the magnificent city wall and exclaimed, "Wow. Tunis City has changed so much..."

Leonard had passed by this city many times and indeed, it had changed drastically.

It had transformed from an ancient magic castle into a high-tech fortified military bastion.

Isabel looked at the hundreds of thousands of refugees outside the city, "But why are there so many people...?"

Darcy responded, "Now the safest place in the Southern Continent is this vast area controlled by Mother in the east of the Red Dragon Kingdom. Refugees from the Three Great Kingdoms are flocking here, and there will be even more in the future..."

Leonard took one glance and understood the situation.

High population is a good thing.

Most of those who managed to flee were robust.

They would supplement the Old Continent with a vast population and bring in a large labor force.

In the future, this would inject vitality into the development of the Old Continent.

The reason for the long queues entering the city, aside from identity checks, was mainly for each person to be injected with the [Genetic Anchoring Potion].

Whether they were vampires or dragon descendants, after the injection, their primary human genes would anchor.

This way, there would be fewer troublesome situations, essentially severing ties with the old forces of the Southern Continent.

The Outer God Team, who had been developing the Old Continent, seemed uninterested and hadn’t stirred up any trouble.

At this point, Isabel noticed the military badge on some of the guards at the city gate and was surprised, "Oh, it’s the flag of my Iris Legion! And the general at the gate is Uncle Jim. Could my father be here too?"

"..."

Leonard and Darcy were not surprised at all.

The indigenous residents of the Southern Continent, seeing mechanical technology for the first time, were naturally fearful, but besides the flag of the Rebellion Army, the city’s flag of "Iris Legion" was also there.

This would greatly appease the refugees.

After all, this was once the territory of the Red Dragon Kingdom, and the Iris Legion was one of the three noble legions of the Red Dragon, with strong public trust as a foundation.

With the exile of the Red Dragon Royal Family, the Iris Legion could now return under the guise of reinforcement, without following orders, able to rally old members, gather resources and people.

This was the best opportunity to grow stronger. NovelFire

Leonard and his group didn’t linger long outside and headed straight towards the city gate.

Isabel lifted her cloak, and the soldiers of the Iris Legion immediately recognized their lady. NovelFire

The three of them entered the city smoothly.

....

"Wow... the changes are really impressive."

"..."

Led by the guards, the three of them entered the city.

As soon as they entered, they were captivated by the bustling and orderly prosperity of the streets.

Various shops were running normally, and the faces of residents showed no fear due to the war.

Aside from a few more patrolling soldiers and the majesty of the city, this was no different from the pre-war Tunis City, if not more prosperous.

The three, having spent over half a year in the wilderness, were suddenly in a thriving city, and Isabel was eagerly craving it.

She darted into a pastry shop on the street and soon returned with several packages of pastries.

"Teacher, for you. This is my favorite ’Jade Cake.’ It was originally only available in the royal city, Acheleon. I didn’t expect the owner to run to Tunis City..."
