"This would be the end. Right?" The room had been silent until Ventus spoke. She had a calm but serious look. She wanted this fighting to end so that the threat that constantly harassed every race here could be gone. The threat that had endangered her children.
"If it was the end of everything, it would be better. I do not wish to push an unending war on the tamers explorations of the world and studies of monsters. It would make things too hard on the guild." Elise spoke up with a great amount of confidence. She had constantly pushed herself and other to become vetter tamers.
Now that she was put in this position within Genesis, it was clear that her values rang true to most tamers and even the people around her. "I don't want to promise anything. But the corruption is clearly something that started with the demon lord or king or whatever he can be called now."
Everyone, including Walker who had just spoken, was clear of this. The demon king had clearly been the one corrupted for untold years. For long enough that the corruption had been able to dwell within him and finally spread outwardly. The chaos he had already caused with the elemental spirits and the manas of the world was too much. Now he was corrupting it as a whole.
"I have multiple reports of corrupted monsters appearing within the rivers , lakes, and ponds. That is going to cause my people and the water else to begin moving with a greater goal. We must cleanse the waters so that they do not become a vessel for the corrupted manas." seeing that a few merfold assistants handed out documents proved that this was a growing concern.
The oceans and water ways were definitely the most populated places for all life. The lands and skies were full, but the water was vast. It was able to sustain monsters and lives that outnumbered many other kingdoms. That Was how the merfolks had struggled and were becoming more powerful now.
"We are worried about the corrupted water, the corrupted elemental manas too. But the monsters appear to be the most affected. This is even clear in farms. The elves that have joined hands with human farmers have called on guards, adventurers, and even a few more powerful system users to deal with the worst that has happened. Scylla would also understand this." Alma let Scylla speak up next.
"Alma speaks true, the many farms we have in the demi-human kingdom are burdened by corrupted livestock. This will shorten the flow of food while also polluting the places that these livestock touch. The cathedrals, healers, and other systems with purifying skills have struggles to handle the additional work. We will need someone with better abilities to work on these things."
The fact that the kingdoms had trouble keeping up with purifying such corrupted mana hit everyone hard. Even the adventurers would be too short of specific system users to make this happen. "That might be a place we can focus on."
Feeling that he had a solution, Walker looked at everyone before calling for someone to open the door. A few echidna warriors walked in surprising everyone since they were very different. Yet, most representatives already knew of the echidna from what they had heard of the Sigil continent's endeavors.
"The echidna race is one that was isolated on an island after many years. They were able to find a balance in nature. Their focus on nature was very big reason why they all have unique systems, affinities, and the like. I expect that they will be able to show us the paths we might be able to travel to reach a better way to purify the corrupted mana." Walker saw many become curious. Even the party was still the most experienced when it came to the echidna.
"We all had a great deal of learning to do when we met them. Many of the echidna used all elemental manas and natural mana. It was hard to understand. My entire alchemy guild is currently studying the natural alchemy that we witnessed when we were there." Remey spoke up. "I am also trying to unlock a different form of natural alchemy with fire as the base. It has given me a new path to walk in both battle and alchemy."
The entire room was silent. They had never seen Remey so calm and serious. Everyone understood the alchemy guild was a place of advanced alchemy learning. The fire that drove the youngest clearly had come from Remey and her hot headed attitude. Yet, now they saw a calmness that spoke volumes of how valuable learning front eh echidna was. It really taught the representatives value.
"That's not all, I learned that archery and hunting can change as well. But I was able to better sense the high elven dagger technique while there. It helped me fully grasp the newly learned skill I used against an undead using powerful false death runes and death manas. It was a way for me to purify my own understandings of my skills." Gil spoke up and made many understand why the elves had been so energetic lately.
"That's not to forget that they allowed me to open my mind to what I am truly capable of. The echidna have a view of the world that we can not reach yet. I understand that everyone may wonder more, but they are unable to tell us everything as they have their own world quests to handle. There are more of their race that may be roaming the world right now. We only have a few warriors that came with us."
The fact that Su shared with everyone that many more echidna were out and about was important. They could arrive at any time to complete their quests and assist many people. They were all about getting the world to the true flow that was meant to be. When that happened, no one knew what would change. The world itself would certainly send something through the systems of the world.
"That's good for now, but we should be proactive. When it comes to the funds we have spent, we used enough to open various paths for the young to take. Even the older people are revitalizing themselves. Some have regained the drive to strengthen themselves. Old craftsman have joined young in opening shops or joining guilds when they were retired." Markus had seen this flow of money throughout Genesis. He knew well that it was a city wide effort to grow.
"Then we will first push the preparations of everyone. Studies and learning will be a focus while we prepare the forces needed to pursue the floating corrupted city. I expect that there will be multiple ships at the ready soon?" This was something that the king of the deep already understood. However, he was unsure how many shops they would have.
"There will be a total of ten new ships within the month. We are also hoping that the tracking of the corrupted city will be kept to a close detailed map as well." Scylla had a close eye on how the ships were being built and she felt at home when she was out on the ocean. The exploration of the oceans would be a massive endeavor within itself.
"That means we will need more soldiers at the ready. Guards that will stay here for the protection of Genesis and those that will be leaving to patrol the areas we see the city floating to." Walker was sure that a division of these forces would be optimal. The only issue would be what else they needed.
"Before you get ahead of yourself, you should know that we will have many more dragons around within the day. It wasn't just Ignus who acted to bring dragons near Genesis. Every single Royal dragon as of the last hour has made a call for the move all of the dragon villages. We will create our own homes using origin runes nearby. It will be within the realm of travel for all of Genesis." Mordant spoke up whole every royal dragon raised their heads higher.
"Then that means the elder dragon will come. That you will bring that history together with Genesis history." Walker grasped what this all meant. That this was well above what he could have expected.
"You are correct. We will even welcome our elder and the keeper of all our history here while we strive to discover the remaining dominator dragon knowledge." Rise spoke with reverence. She was certain that she was now walking a path that no dragon alive today could walk other than her. But that was the same for every dragon. Every single one of them was now learning skills from ancient dragon history. They would be the first in generations to stand this tall.
