Chapter Twenty-Seven: Zakun's Trial

The first to discover the anomaly of Zakun's seal was the gatekeeper of the Zakun Altar, Adubis, whose family was entrusted by the first Empress Alia to guard Zakun's altar to prevent outlaws from invading the altar and plotting against the sealed Zakun.

What struck Adubis most strangely was that no one had invaded the altar during his nearly twenty years of guarding, but he did feel the unbearable heat and earth-shaking tremor of the altar.

Zakun, who was sealed by Empress Alia, has been resurrected!

This news was immediately known to the Holy Land, Treasure Island, Edelstein and other forces, and at this time, almost all the forces were watching the movements of the Holy Land.

Empress Aria's death has greatly reduced the power and prestige of the Holy Land, and if the new Empress Sinas is unable to deal with the seal left by the previous empress, there may be a possibility of re-electing the empress.

But it can also be said that this is the first stage for the new Empress Shinas to show her abilities, using the feat of resealing Zakun to strengthen the position of the Empress and restore the prestige of the Empress of the Holy Land.

Since Empress Shinas was still young at this time, it was up to her advisor Nanhart to discuss a solution with the various knight commanders, and finally come up with a plan before the Empress announced it.

The list of Zakun expeditions announced by Empress Shinas can be described as a strong lineup, and the leaders of the major knight orders will personally go into battle, and even the young Empress Shinas will follow the divine beast to the lava field to destroy Zakun who broke the seal.

This move is the Holy Land showing its strong strength to all the forces? Or is it to create merit for the young empress?

The major forces outside the Holy Land were all puzzled

But no matter what, this holy place can be said to be the best of the best. Even in the era when black magicians were rampant, the weight of such a force was extremely heavy, and it could be said that it could affect the entire battle situation.

All the forces and families believe that the Zakun expedition will definitely solve the resurrected Zakun by going to the lava field this time!

No matter how bad it is, it should be able to seal that dangerous Zakun like the previous empress!

Sure enough, in just three days, the stone monster Zakun that the elders predicted that 'endangered the safety of the entire world' was completely wiped out by the Zakun expedition, and not even a single seal was left.

At the time, it seemed to many that the elders of the Arya era had overestimated the gargoyle.

Compared to Shinas, it took Empress Alia three full days just to seal Zakun, not to mention the distance and the time it took to defeat Zakun.

As a result, Empress Shinas was strengthened and the prestige of the Holy Land was restored.

It was supposed to be the end of the matter, but the days of peace were short-lived, and almost four years after the Zakun expedition eliminated Zakun, the gatekeeper Adubis continued to insist on guarding the altar of Zakun

He has been staying in this place since he was young, and he has always been nostalgic for this place and is reluctant to move out.

He was old, his parents were dead, and he had no children of his own, so where else could Adubis go?

It was another dull day, and he felt the terrible heat and tremors again! He knew - Zakun had reappeared!

The major forces immediately learned the terrifying news from the gatekeeper Adubis - Zakun has been resurrected again!

How is this possible!? The Zakun expedition should not and will not fail!

Zakun should die no longer in the face of the powerful Zakun expedition, and it is impossible for the Holy Land Empress Shinas to joke with her own reputation and that of the Holy Land!

Just when all the forces were confused, the Holy Land began to move again! In addition to the heads of the major knights, empresses, and divine beasts, the Holy Land also invited representatives of the four major forces of Treasure Island, representatives of Edelstan, elders of the White Feather Clan of Sky City, elders of Shenmu Village, and other representatives or elders of major forces.

The major forces outside the Holy Land understand that this is the Holy Land to clear suspicion. Let's not talk about whether it was the Holy Land that completely wiped out Zakun? Or does Zakun have a special ability to resurrect? The possibility of collusion between the Holy Land and Zakun is very small, but it is not ruled out.

Will the Holy Land collude with Zakun to threaten the entire adventure world? It seems very ridiculous in the eyes of the public, but the major forces have to guard against it.

In the past, the strength of the Holy Land on the surface was enough to suppress the alliance of all forces, and it should be said that all the forces united could not resist the Holy Land.

But now, the empress who is the most powerful in the world has died, the divine beast has also been seriously injured in the battle with the black magician, the knights have lost a lot of money except for the captain who still has old diseases, and the empress is still very young

A series of problems such as strength show that the title of the world's number one in the Holy Land is extremely unstable today!

Although the strength of the Holy Land is enough to defeat every force, if the major forces unite and the Holy Land can only be slaughtered

So in order to stabilize the status of the Holy Land, it is not impossible to cooperate with the monster Zakun.

Of course, peace is the mainstream of the adventure world, and although there is a competitive relationship between the major powers, there is still a lot of cooperation and exchange in normal times.

The possibility of collusion between the Holy Land and Zakun is very small, because of the strength and influence of the Holy Land, it is very difficult to completely bring down the Holy Land, and it is also a huge problem who will be the second Holy Land after the overthrow. So the major forces didn't think about it

To bring down the momentum of the Holy Land, and there is no need for the Holy Land to worry about the coercion of the major forces.

And when the representatives and elders of the major forces saw Zakun, they realized how outrageous the idea of collusion between the Holy Land and Zakun was!

The spirit of the Zakun tree is attached to a stone statue made by humans in the lava field, and the stone statue gradually absorbs the energy of the geothermal energy of the lava field, and the stone statue will slowly recover from damage.

Zakun, on the other hand, is like a human who has no autonomous consciousness, only knows how to absorb energy and attack humans who invade his territory.

Under the combined encirclement of the Holy Land and the major forces, the stone statue of Zakun was shattered again and fell into the scorching red magma

At this time, the Empress's advisor Nanhart probed the scattered debris and came to an unacceptable conclusion.

Zakun is still not dead, its spirit is hidden deep in magma!

The expedition's destruction of the spirit in the statue of Zakun was actually only a part of the spirit of Zakun.

If left unchecked, Zakun will be resurrected soon!

If Zakun is to be wiped out, the entire lava field must be destroyed! And the Magic Stone Mine on the outskirts of the lava field will no longer exist, and it may even threaten the villages of all sizes in the frozen snowy region!

In other words, to completely destroy Zakun, it is necessary to abandon the Magic Stone Mining Area that is being mined, and the inhabitants of the Frozen Snow Region must also be moved. For many years to come, no one would have existed, whether it was the Frozen Snow Fields or the Magic Stone Mining Area.

Representatives of Treasure Island, Castle in the Sky, Underwater World, and Toy City were all vehemently opposed to the destruction of Zakun.

Treasure Island is the power that discovered the Frozen Snow Land and discovered the magic stone mines in the Snow Land, and Treasure Island can be said to be the true master of the Frozen Snow Land.

In addition to the heat and clouds of the sun, the Philosopher's Stone is indispensable, and the Philosopher's Stone imported from other places is too expensive, and only the Philosopher's Stone bought from the nearest Frozen Snow Region is extremely cheap.

The same is true of the underwater world, and the magic stones needed for the magic barrier supported in the deep sea are even more astronomical, and if you can import the magic stones from the nearby frozen and snowy regions, you will definitely save a lot of money.

Although the deep layers with the most magical ore content have been turned into abandoned mining areas due to Zakun, there are still many scattered mining areas on the outer layer for people to collect, which means that the magical ore veins in the frozen snow still have their due value.

Because of the many involved, negotiations between the Holy Land and representatives of other forces had to reach an impasse.

Even if he single-mindedly destroys the entire lava field, it is difficult to say whether he will be able to destroy Zakun, who is deep in the depths of the lava.

And it's also questionable whether the entire lava field can be destroyed with the strength of the current expedition alone.

In the discussion of many forces, the strategist Nanhart made a good note.

Destroying Zakun was not without gain, at least they eliminated a part of Zakun's spirit.

According to the inhabitants of the remaining lava fields, the stone statue of Zakun would appear every time the Eye of Fire was placed on the altar of Zakun as a sacrifice.

Zakun is not self-conscious, as long as he receives the Eye of Flame, it will definitely appear! If you destroy the summoned Zakun stone statue and the Zakun spirit inside the stone statue every once in a while, the Zakun spirit will gradually weaken until Zakun's spirit is not enough to control the stone statue!

And every time the stone statue of Zakun is destroyed, it is not without profit, the fragments of the stone statue of Zakun can be made into powerful armor by the master blacksmith, and the crystals inside the stone statue are also precious equipment crafting materials, and because Zakun cannot move his body when he appears at the altar of Zakun, the major forces can also use this to run in the team.

Nanhart's proposal was unanimously supported by many forces, who agreed to organize a Zakun expedition every six months to crusade against Zakun.

This plan has been carried out more than once, and the Zakun crusade, which originally had the nature of resolving the world crisis, has also become a tool for the major forces to test the younger generation.
