Chapter 770 Months of Progress
??Five weeks after Ayden''s arrival in Stormhold...",
Vicente and hispanions were currently in Stormhold, with him once again saying goodbye to his people to travel around the state and build the structure to make his local altar work.
The king was still there, having spent all these weeks following the actions of Vicente and his group, nning to return to the capital only when his family''s group of allies had left.
"In three weeks or less, I''ll be back. That''s thest time you have to get more materials. After that, I''ll inaugurate my order post in this state and leave the next day. I''ve already spent too long in this central area of the continent." Vicente said to the king.
"Thank you, Vicente. I''ll get enough before your departure." Aydenmented in a calm and grateful tone, aware that Vicente had already done a lot for Trevora Kingdom.
In thest few weeks, Vicente hadpleted building the defensive fence on both sides of the main mountain range in the Green Hills and developed 500 pieces of armor, 6,000 firearms and 1 million rounds of ammunition.
If the king and his family were quick, it would still give them time to sweat it out and get even more from the young Fuller. But even if they didn''t, these figures were already excellent.
Vicente smiled at the king before leaving, having already given his orders to Rory and the others, setting off alongside Torne, Lauren, and the two Paragon magicians from the Dark Path.
One of them he intended to leave at the altar of the order he was going to explore today, while the other he had already decided to take to the south of the continent with his group.
...
In the blink of an eye, another two weeks passed.
Unlike what had happened previously at the outpost now below Metal City 2, the order''s secret outpost in Trevora Kingdom had no beings in it when Vicente and his team arrived.
The ce was untouched, just as it had been thousands of years ago when itsst administrators had left it before dying or being kidnapped by Congregation of Revtions forces.
Given the location of this outpost in a state that even had an Archmage in the past, the resources avable there were excellent!
Vicente collected the best to take with him to the south, but left things for his subordinate to use and also for future members to have ways of strengthening themselves at lower levels.
After deciding that he would leave the 5th stage man who had apanied him, Vicente did above that post what he had already done in the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn. For a few days, he busied himself building the foundations of a safe city and then set off back to the border while he built the railroad to the nearest city in the area.
Stormhold was over 300 kilometers away from Metal City 3, so Vicente began building his railway towards Sunreach, one of the northernmost cities in the Green Hills. The length of the railway between the two points was only 75 kilometers, so it would only take him 7 days to finish his work.
...
After arriving in Sunreach, Vicente led a group of young people and their families to the order post he had conquered in Trevora Kingdom, as he had done in Dresbert.
With that done, he returned to Stormhold that afternoon alongside Torne, Lauren and the Low-level Paragon woman, ready to stay a day or two in that city and set off south.
Given the position Stormhold was in, if they set off at Onyx''s top speed, they could reach the Seidel Kingdom in around three months. Having been out of his home state for over two years, Vicente was looking forward to finishing his journey and seeing those he had left behind.
As soon as he arrived in Stormhold that afternoon, he made it clear to Ayden the time of his departure, ordering his group to be ready in two more days.
...
"Then the time hase for you to return south..." The Mid-
level Paragon of the king''s group muttered as he saw Vicente''s group ready to leave Stormhold.
The feeling he had today was totally different from weeks ago, when he thought he was dealing with an enemy trying to influence Trevora Kingdom. Now he couldn''t help but sigh with regret. It would be much better if Vicente lived with them!
"When will we hear from you?" Ayden asked as he looked at Vicente hopefully.
"Can''t say for sure. I''m going to spend some time organizing the Seidel Kingdom. I don''t know how things are going there, but I don''t intend to leave before I''m safe to leave my people again. But you''ll hear from me sooner orter. More ns lie to the north."
Ayden saw Vicente''s look and said. "I''ll focus on advancing to the 6th stage while you''re busy in the south. If things work out for both of us, we''ll set off together to fight the vampires."
With that said, Vicente and Ayden shook each other''s hands, with their group leaving the city in different directions.
Vicente and his group headed in a south-easterly direction, while Ayden headed in a south-westerly direction, towards Eldoria, the new capital of the kingdom after the fall of the previous capital.
...
In the blink of an eye, a month would pass since Vicente''s group left Stormhold, with them finally leaving the central region of the continent to enter the south.
With several Paragons in the group and Sovereigns in 5th stage armor, the group would hardly be slowed down by anything. With no intention of stopping to helpmunities of magicians on their way, the group was traveling as fast as possible south.
As they traveled in the southern region, they would gradually see how the cmity had already reached the more distant northern and weaker portions of the continent.
Just as they had seen in the Kingdom of Eternal Dawn and Trevora Kingdom, southern states and cities were in dire straits, their poptions desperate and squeezed into small cities.
They would soon learn that this was more or less the same case for the Seidel Kingdom.
Seidel Kingdom had just started facing the major problems of the cmity a few weeks ago!
