The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 977 - 658: The Night Watcher’s Legendary Tale

Ring Tower City.

This city, which continuously expands around the Tower of Trial, has already become the core of the Lebia Continent.

It is not only the power center of the Night Watchers.

But also the political center of the Order Covenant.

Steadily advancing toward the goal of becoming the "world's largest city."

Of course, if the Tower of Trial is considered part of the city, then no other city can compare to it.

After all, what city can boast such a grandiose and towering Tower of Trial?

With the rapid development of the city, a large influx of foreigners continues to pour in.

You see, a rat plague that once nearly swept the entire Lebia Continent struck a few years ago. Although recovery from this disaster is underway, half of the continent still remains under the control of the rats.

The rat plague caused countless intelligent lives to suffer severe losses.

Later, under the leadership of the Night Watchers forming the Order Covenant, the continent experienced rapid development during times of peace, gradually recovering.

Even so, there are still some refugees. The Night Watchers took in a large portion of them, and these people gathered in Ring Tower City.

Due to the Tower of Trial's sky-piercing height, many ordinary people view it as though it's a pillar supporting the heavens.

For this reason, people have bestowed it with many names like the "Heaven-Reaching Tower," "Heaven-Supporting Pillar," and "Black Mountain."

This has caused many people, including the nobility remaining in the city, to long for Ring Tower City.

In the city controlled by the Night Watchers, the nobles may have lost their past power and many privileges, but they still hold enough accumulated wealth from the past to ensure them a relatively comfortable life.

The terrible rat plague from the past still haunts them, and the renowned reputation of Ring Tower City and the Night Watchers gives them hope of finding the inner sense of security they've lacked.

Besides residents of this continent, the largest group of foreigners consists of those followers who heard of the Night Watchers and came from all corners, attracted by their name.

All of this is thanks to the policy proposed earlier by Kana.

When chaotic evil deities were rampant and causing turmoil, the Night Watchers were dispersed into small teams and sent to all parts of the world. This caused word of the Night Watchers to spread in many areas.

With the evolving situation on the Lebia Continent, the Night Watchers began integrating forces, and those dispatched elsewhere became a target of admiration and following for many.

As the chaos incited by the evil deities slightly alleviated, past accumulated tensions and the continued provocations by the evil deities led to successive outbreaks of war.

Those bewildered and helpless people, displaced citizens fleeing the chaos, followed in the footsteps of the Night Watchers, setting sail toward the Lebia Continent.

For other forces, such a large-scale influx of population tends to bring security risks and various problems.

However, for the Night Watchers, these aren't issues at all.

The Night Watchers' patrol teams are considered highly effective in maintaining order within the city, and the newcomers among the Night Watchers, who were worried about finding suitable training subjects, now find an opportunity provided to them.

Moreover, various inexpensive foods and daily commodities effectively curtail potential chaos and attract a large population to the city.

It can be said that as long as the Night Watchers have recruitment needs, this city alone could suffice to meet their recruitment for a long time in the future.

Kana stood on the balcony of his office, overlooking the bustling city below.

The main office location of the Night Watchers within the city is a Floating City suspended next to the Black Tower.

This city was originally one of the functional towers in Calvin's floating fleet, serving information exchange, collection, intelligence gathering, and certain commanding functions.

Through the research and transformation by the Night Watchers, it expanded to its current scale.

"Your Highness."

Alyris entered after knocking on the door.

Kana turned his head, looked at her, and smiled slightly: "You've worked hard during this period."

"Not at all." Alyris smiled.

Kana returned to his desk, seated himself, while Alyris took the seat beside him, beginning their work discussion and reporting.

Since Alyris advanced to the Legendary Tier, she had to pause her role as Kana's guard and took on duties akin to a secretary.

Though she had previously juggled this role, the main reason for the change this time was the incredible scarcity of combat power among the Night Watchers at the Legendary Tier.

Compared to other forces worldwide, the number of Legendary strongholders among the Night Watchers isn't particularly low.

However, the issue remains that the Night Watchers' opponents are formidable.

Presently, the count of Legendary strongholders among the Night Watchers is very limited.

Besides Kana, there is only Svina Anna, the recently joined Abyssal Evil Dragon.

Given her power and behavior, it may be some time before she can fully be put to use.

It is said that a small Creation Stone Fragment is required to remove the Power of the Abyss from her and allow her to truly integrate into this world as one of its own.

This was also the agreement she needed to fulfill, following the killing of her father by Kana.

Although Svina Anna is only Level Twelve, being the offspring of an Evil Dragon and a Blade Dragon, coupled with her unique skills and certain innate abilities, she surely has the power to even suppress or defeat Level Thirteen Legendary strongholders with the Night Watchers' talent boost.

Once the abyssal corruption on her is eradicated, her dragon form will greatly enhance morale on the battlefield.

In addition, the Legendary Level Black Knight is still receiving treatments from Bobo to remove the abyssal influence.

He, too, requires a Creation Stone Fragment to truly rid of abyss interference, be accepted by the world, and officially join the Night Watchers.

The Black Knight is a genuine battle maniac; he survived countless tough battles in the Abyss, his combat ability beyond doubt. Within the Night Watchers, he has no match in one-on-one duels of the same Level.

When loosed upon demons, he is a powerful force like a wolf among sheep.

Once he regains his sanity, his strength is sure to break through to Level Twelve.

Thus, in the first tier of the Night Watchers, members of Level Twelve are as follows:

Svina Anna, Alyris, the Half-Demon Tower Master, Black Knight.

As per the current data, individuals of Level Eleven are as follows:

Raelia, Abis, Sergio.

This shows the scarcity of Legendary strongholders among the Night Watchers.

Sergio only advanced within the last two months, and the situations of Svina Anna and the Black Knight are the same.

It means that only a few months ago, there were only five Legendary strongholders in total among the Night Watchers.

Under such circumstances, keeping Alyris by Kana's side constantly would be an enormous waste of resources.

Moreover, with her high standing within the Night Watchers now, it's natural for her to undertake more significant responsibilities.

As for Bugreit and the Undead Dragon, they cannot be considered regular Legendary combat units.

Especially the Undead Dragon, which will remain bound within the Tower of Trial for a long time.

And due to the shortage of Legendary strongholders, when encountering Legendary Level enemies in battle, the Night Watchers generally can only rely on a small team of Soul Guardians for containment.

However, with the world barriers about to be depleted, the strength of the descending Apostles will grow increasingly formidable.
