“The supreme ruler of the night and stars? What a great ambition!” Lu Zhiyu laughed.

As he snapped his fingers, a black chess piece that was emitting a fluorescent glow rotated and then fell down, landing on the Sumerian Kingdom on the map of Maria’s World. On the chess piece, there was an image of someone dressed in a black robe, like a wizard’s. He was holding a candle, and the faint candlelight seemed to illuminate the whole night.

“It seems that he wants to be the god of night, and its corresponding authority is controlling the length of the night, temperature changes, human sleep time, and even human dreams. This god can make a series of corresponding rules, and there is great potential for authority expansion,” Lu Zhiyu observed.

As he put hands together under his chin, his two forefingers moved constantly. He was clearly in deep thought. At last, he raised his eyebrows and nodded. “Well, I’ll let him see if he can handle it!”

As the chess piece fell, the whole Alen Continent on the map changed instantly. The mountain ranges and the shadows of small cities could now be seen clearly on the map. Even the clouds on the map kept changing their forms.

The whole world map was like a giant chessboard, and eleven chess pieces that were shining like stars above the board had not fallen down yet!

The news about the Church of the Dark Night immediately spread from the central province across the whole Alen Continent. This religion emerged overnight, which instantly stirred up The Church of Light, as well as the wizards and the orcs. All of them immediately devoted all of their attentions to the Sumerian Kingdom.

The Church of Light, the Faith of the Sun, the wizard tower, Colossus College, the mercenary union and various organizations of extraordinary power entered the Sumerian Kingdom to investigate this religion. They were particularly fascinated by it, as it had emerged suddenly and developed so fast.

The dense Black Forest, stretching from the coastline to the skyline, was blocked by towering mountains. Within the forest, a large number of magical beasts and powerful monsters existed, making this area a forbidden place for human beings.

However, the Kingdom of Rosa d’Oro had built some cities and great fortresses in some important import and export harbors nearby. On the one hand, they did this to protect humans from magical beasts and monsters that escaped the Black Forest. On the other hand, they did this because of the abundant resources that were available in the forest.

Specifically, rare medicinal materials and minerals had attracted a large number of mercenaries and merchants to come here. Countless people here had even built special adventurer towns on the edge of the Black Forest, which naturally promoted trade. People here saw a huge increase in their wealth and interests, but sadly, the killing never stopped.

Also, there was always a mist in the Black Forest, making it dark and humid all the time. In the depth of the forest, on a black mountain that was surrounded by a large number of devil camphor trees, stood a tall tower, which was the holy place of all of the wizards, the wizard tower!

The devil camphor trees emitted a strong miasma and formed illusionary magic boundaries, blocking all of the unwanted visitors. These devil camphor trees, after more than 200 years of growth, had gradually evolved into a special type of magic plant.

Even the breeding of the Ancient War Trees had incorporated this unique cultivation method of the devil camphor trees. After wizards returned from the Yala Continent, they had immediately upgraded the original magic boundaries.

As such, even the extraordinary wizards could not break through the magic boundaries that had been formed by these devil camphor trees. This was because any movement outside would be noticed by the wizards inside. Then, groups of tower wizards would immediately come to kill the intruders!

Dozens of towers had been built as a safeguard, protecting the wizard tower. Many wizards and wizard servants were shuttling along the roads.

There were also all kinds of magical beasts that were tied in chains or being ridden by wizards. Letter ravens were also busy going about their work in the sky.

There were even shop that were selling all kinds of magic materials, magic potions, alchemy products, magic books and so on. Some roads were even built with railway tracks, where alchemy railway cars ran up and down daily.

Each wizard tower was a large research institute. Different wizard towers were led by different mentors, and each focused on different aims. Some of these niches included alchemy, bloodlines, dreams, magic potions and even magical beast breeding! Each wizard tower also had its own characteristics in terms of magic application.

This was indeed a proper wizard city, and the wizard tower was the most striking and prominent institute, one which had already nurtured generations of wizards throughout hundreds of years. Countless wizards had graduated from here, then gone on to create their own legends, bringing changes to the whole continent.

All of the wizards regarded the wizard tower as a holy place. Its style was like the architecture of the mythological era, solemn and grand. Any wizard who looked at it couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe.

Generations of wizards came here at all costs in order to study. In fact, every single wizard dreamed of getting in, and those who graduated from here were still proud of it, even years after the fact.

“What is the Church of the Dark Night? It’s just another Church of True God!” In the top floor of the wizard tower, some wizards were discussing the Church of the Dark Night in a huge conference room.

There were a large number of seats on both sides of the room. When major events took place, wizards gathered here to express their thoughts, and a main speaker would stand in the center to give speeches and offer opinions.

“The Sumerian Kingdom was under the control of the Church of True God, yet we didn’t know that until just now!”

“The tower has been too isolated from the outside world! Moreover, the Church of True God is hiding, and even the Church of Light has not found out about this!”

All of the wizards were offering different opinions. The Church of True God, which had been in hiding, had suddenly appeared. Although they had re-emerged under the new name of the Church of the Dark Night, the wizards had still found out this secret.

One of the wizards looked serious and asked the speaker, “How could Heckfoss not have died?”

“Well, it’s apparently true. According to the information we’ve got, he’s still alive!” the speaker replied, still not really answering the question.

“The abilities of these demon warlocks are so weird! I can’t understand them!” another wizard exclaimed.

Everyone looked towards Edward as he stood up and said, “I think that what we should really be concerned about is what they want to do, and whether that will be harmful or beneficial to us? Moreover, whether it has anything to do with us at all!”

“What should we do if it is both harmful and beneficial?” someone in the back asked.

Edward had been the master of the tower for more than a hundred years. Now, he was more mature than he used to be. His prestige among wizards was even greater than his foster father and mentor, Bohr Kelermo’s had ever been.

There were a lot of debates going on at the conference. Some high-level wizards, who had experienced what happened in the mainland of the Yala Continent, analyzed what this so-called Church of the Dark Night was going to do. They then voted to take action against the Sumerian Kingdom.

In addition to the wizard tower, various extraordinary forces also decided to take action quickly. But, before they could actually take any measures against the Church of True God and the Sumerian Kingdom, news came from the Sumerian Kingdom that Heckfoss had held a ceremony to ignite the divine fire.
