Chapter 739: Chapter 392: God’s Son_1

With Guli Xieti Cap and the Hearthstone Witch’s Visceral Divination Skill, the speed of Ivita’s team indeed increased.

Ivita was eager to reach the Iron Crown Mountain range as quickly as possible. It was like the king had died, and he had to return to the capital as quickly as he could, to claim the throne.

However, even if they could clearly identify the direction, they still had to expend effort to get past the nest of monsters.

The most troublesome for Ivita was that there were some Guardian Ancient Weapons made by the Ancient Civilization in the desert. These might be the secret weapons the King of the Ancient Tomb had to counter the Iron Crown.

But it only brought trouble to Ivita and his companions.

Guli Xieti Cap pointed towards a direction, "We should head that way, there is a water source there."

The Hearthstone Witch cast her a doubtful glance. "Your talent is really handy."

"Are you sure you’re not arbitrarily pointing out the direction to prove your worth amongst us?"

Knight Robinson said to Ivita, "Your Highness, the water we brought with us has run out. One cannot travel in the desert without water. Even if our constitution is strong, now that we are venturing deeper into the desert, we need to locate a water source. I think we can try to trust her."

The Hearthstone Witch said to Ivita, "All we need is to locate a water source once. I could store the entire tributary of the underground river in my glass bottle."

Ivita nodded thoughtfully. "Then, let’s head that way."

Following where she pointed, they walked for about twenty minutes. Surprisingly, they saw an oasis. However, before the Hearthstone Witch, Knight Robinson, and others had time to celebrate, they saw three groups of wagons at the oasis in the distance. Additionally, they saw the Black Knight Cavalry Regiment controlled by the Iron Crown and a batch of hooded figures bearing a golden sun symbol on their robes..

Cap looked at Ivita somewhat scared. "Mr. Ivita, I didn’t purposely lead you to this place."

Ivita nodded. "In this desert, an oasis is definitely something that many parties would fight over, or to be more precise, the potential heirs to the duchy would definitely stop here. So...the best way to ambush them would be to wait here like sitting ducks."

The ongoing battle was fierce, while he was having a brief chat with Cap, dozens of bodies had already fallen.

The cult member who seemed to worship the sun was holding a dagger, fearlessly traversing the battlefield and creating slaughter amongst the members of the vehicle convoy of the heirs’ candidates.

The cadavers of those killed by these heretics displayed the golden sun emblem seen on their robes.

Moreover, these corpses would be set ablaze under the sun.

From such actions, Ivita deduced that this covert church seemed to be specifically against the Iron Crown, as even the corpses on this land needed to belong to the Iron Crown, just like the living,.

If the bodies were not incinerated, they would be turned into undead puppets by the Iron Crown.

Even in death, their loyalty to the Iron Crown could not be severed!

Ivita suddenly understood why the Iron Crown could distort time, because for the Iron Crown, the past, present, future, death and time, space and mission, none could break the bond of loyalty to the Iron Crown.

Once a servant of the Iron Crown, forever a servant of the Iron Crown.

Cap said to Ivita, "Your Highness, those people are so pitiful. Can we save them? Like how you saved me before."

Before Ivita could answer, the Hearthstone Witch angrily retorted. "The reason we saved you was because we were oblivious to the reality. But now that we understand the situation, there is no need to save them. Furthermore, I’ve seen it before, all three of the potential heirs over there are males. Some of them may even inherit before our Highness."

"Are we going to save a competitor?"

But in truth, Ivita did not have the time to save them.

Because Sun God Sect’s people have already dispatched their troops to capture the three potential heirs in the oasis. However, two of them were killed by the pursuing Iron Crown Knight Regiment with their Knight Sword.

Only one potential heir was left, who was forcibly taken away by the followers of the Sun God Sect. The rest of the followers of the Sun God Sect stayed back, delaying for time.

Seeing this scene, Ivita had a strange look on his face, wondering why the religion that worshipped the sun was taking people away.

But the Iron Knights, who had been ignoring and overlooking people of his identity, actually took the initiative to kill potential heirs.

There were two possibilities—

Either the walking dead controlled by the Iron Crown were not necessarily harmless to him and the others;

Or the Iron Crown would rather kill potential heirs than let the Sun God Sect take them away, perhaps because the Sun God Sect had a special use for potential heirs.

A ritual?

Alchemy?

Or turning them into puppets?

Ivita was lost in speculation.

However, he didn’t have the intention of getting involved. After all, this had nothing to do with him. All he needed to do was to wait for the Iron Crown Knight Regiment to kill all the followers of the Sun God Sect in the oasis, then he would go to gather underground water.

It wouldn’t be hard to isolate the clean water source from the pollution of the blood.
