I Became the Progenitor Vampire

Chapter 469: Chapter 470 Traces of an Unfamiliar Divine in Dawn City

The message Spark had sent back from the Nolan Capital was somewhat beyond Lide’s expectations.

Of course, it wasn’t about the three ladies Spark had found from who knows where—it was about the fragments of the Destiny Tablet.

He hadn’t expected that just after sending that disheveled old man a message about his quest for the Destiny Tablet fragments, he would immediately receive accurate information in return.

That luck was too good.

He didn’t doubt it, though. This frugal teacher, despite mostly being unreliable—like often enjoying strolls through the red-light district, collecting rather colorful paintings…—was trustworthy in critical moments.

But it must be said that this unexpected news had disrupted his original plan. Regardless, the Destiny Tablet fragments were now the top priority in his list of objectives.

So he quickly rearranged the order of his plans internally.

After a brief moment of thought, Lide looked up at Harrison, about to speak, when suddenly a clear cracking sound came from outside, like the shattering of glass.

Lide felt a surge of apprehension and immediately rose to peer out of the office window, gazing into the distance.

The sky had changed again.

The original fissure in the sky had torn open further, and the ancient air, thicker than before, gushed out like water seeping through a dam, the Old Day force in the air quickly becoming denser.

The sky fissure had expanded again.

Lide’s expression grew grim.

Seeing this, Harrison quickly walked to the window and, upon seeing the expanded crack in the sky, felt a tremor in his spirit. His voice was somewhat hoarse as he said,

“Your Highness, the incursion of the Old Day force is accelerating…”

Lide took a deep breath, the seriousness on his face lingering for a long time.

If the Ancient Evil God could fully descend upon the world, then the pace of the Ancient Invasion was naturally not going to stop there.

But what he hadn’t expected was that the speed at which the fissure widened would be so fast.

After feeling it out for a moment, his gaze shifted towards the somewhat withered plants in the city.

At this rate, by next spring, the wheat yield would undoubtedly be affected, and it might even come to total crop failure…

If such a situation were to occur, it would be an absolute nightmare.

He had over twenty million people under his command who needed to eat… The food stockpiled in the storehouses was roughly enough to last the current population for a year, but what about after that?

If there was a total crop failure this year, what would they do next year?

Food wasn’t something you could plant and eat immediately; it took time. A single season’s failure impacted an entire year.

After pondering for a moment, he turned to look at Harrison, his tone somber.

“Harrison, immediately compile the information on that Sea Beast in the Lost Sea for me.

Next, I will take Frey on a hunt for that Demigod Sea Beast, get the piece of the Destiny Tablet, and then make a trip to the Nolan Capital.”

The situation was urgent; there was no time for slow planning.

Information about the Destiny Tablet fragments had been provided early on by Cassilina.

He had also been having Dawn City collect information about that Demigod Sea Beast. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to take Frey straight into the Lost Sea and directly take down that beast.

But that Sea Beast was hidden in a secret Dimension Space, appearing only during the Sea God Festival.

And the Sea God Festival occurred once every ten years, and there were still six or seven years until the next one…

Looking for a Sea Beast concealed within a Dimension Space in the vast sea—wasn’t that like finding a needle in a haystack?

Although Frey was strong, she wasn’t to the extent that she could peer through all the worlds at a glance…

So, he needed support from intelligence.

Harrison immediately nodded in response.
