While Thanatos and Polycia demonstrated the power of [Death], Crydella, as a monarch and the Empress Caesar who initiated the first journey to seek fire, would not lag behind.
This battle-hardened army was the gift that Kerudela gave to Hua Yi.
Standing silently beside her, Heather waved the eagle banner. Horns blared throughout the army, and the Fire Chaser soldiers remained silent, their movements precise as machines, all executing the same action—
With a clenched fist, he struck the chest plate at the heart position with a heavy thud.
The size of the army far exceeds one hundred or one thousand people.
Over a thousand years, Onphalus has accumulated a wealth of noble souls from all over the world, gathered at the edge of the West Wind. Even with Cerlydella's careful selection, the number has reached hundreds of thousands.
The spear slammed to the ground, and the giant shield struck.
This was the Fire Chaser's war gift to the Queen and the Savior. Countless metallic clangs, precisely in sync with the same rhythm, transformed into a powerful sonic wave composed purely of strength and discipline, impacting all directions.
Even the light of the two moons trembled!
As the roar reached its peak, Krydella's raised right hand steadily clenched into a fist in mid-air.
Simple actions are absolute laws. (For thrilling novels, visit Feilu Novels!)
In the next instant, all sounds, whether thunderous impacts or resounding thuds, vanished abruptly.
It was abruptly cut off, replaced by absolute solemnity.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Fire Chasing Army seemed to be drawn by invisible threads, and they all knelt down on their right knees.
The rubbing of the armor produced another low, rhythmic rustling sound, like the wind blowing through an endless wheat field, causing the wheat ears to bend.
The army remained kneeling, spears like a forest, their fanatical gazes from within their helmets all focused on the same single focal point—Hua Yi.
These are the fire-chasing soldiers trained by Kerudela.
These are warriors who are willing to sacrifice their lives for the savior, and will fight to the very end no matter how powerful the enemy they face!
Knowing full well what such discipline truly represented, Bronya, Cocolia, and Natasha from Belloberg, Topa and Emerald from the company, and Yu Kong, Jing Liu, and Fei Xiao from the Immortal Boat Alliance all wore peculiar expressions.
Caution, surprise, approval...
Facts speak louder than words; Kerudela's leadership skills were exceptional.
In the vast universe, she would be considered a top-tier marshal. With a little more study on space warfare, she might be able to command an interstellar war.
Silently surveying her own troops, 490 Ke Ludela's lips curled into a satisfied smile.
"Savior, inspect us! The warriors saved by you stand in formation. The paradise city at the end of the west wind awaits your arrival."
"You really gave me a pleasant surprise, Crydella."
Hua Yi strode forward, leading the girls around him through the sea of flowers toward Krydella's location.
The Fire Chaser made way for him, and as the savior walked through the battle formation, the soldiers who had been kneeling on one knee began to stand up in unison, ready to receive orders.
Thousands of troops and horses were all brought under his command.
When Hua Yi stepped onto the high platform and turned to face the Fire Chasing Army, what appeared before him was a war machine.
Clearly, Krydera did not simulate fighting the Black Tide alone; she deployed the Fire Chaser Army to the battlefield for countless training exercises.
Those who don't meet the requirements are eliminated and become ordinary citizens of Paradise City, while those who do meet the requirements stay and form the Fire Chasing Army.
The entire force is elite, and everyone is willing to die for the savior!
At the very front of the army formation, judging from the posture, the personal guards directly commanded by Hazel were also covered in helmets and armor, and had hands and legs, but Hua Yi could keenly sense the difference between them and humans.
These guards are sirens, mermaids from the Kingdom of Fajina.
A multi-ethnic army from different countries and city-states.
Hua Yi quickly accepted the status quo.
Well, thankfully Crydella didn't turn little Tibbo into a scout for intense training, and she remembered how much the messengers had already sacrificed by running around, so she specially took care of this little girl.
Chapter 772 Thank goodness for you all
It really has been a long time...
Although for the people on the Star Train, only a few days had passed from viewing the time capsule to arriving in Stikosia and actually facing the Fire Chaser Army face to face, it took Crydella, Heather, and the others a full thousand years.
That guy, Hua Yi must have done something extra to make the time span so short. Sometimes when Keludela and the others recall it, it feels like a thousand years have passed in a dream.
Relaxed and wonderful.
They had imagined countless times what it would be like to actually meet their guardian angel and their great benefactor who had protected them.
Ultimately, a thousand words remained stuck in my throat.
—Cerudela would never admit that she had secretly observed for a long time and witnessed a group of girls pressing down on Hua Yi, and Xia Die clinging to his arm, and felt envious.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Hua Yi admired Keludela's appearance.
Her hair was a beautiful gradient of blue and white, and she wore a small imperial crown on her head with a cluster of eerie blue flames dancing on it, which looked quite magical.
The girl's face was exquisite and flawless, and her small body was wrapped in a blue and white dress, which together made up of Crydella's cuteness, which also strangely blended with the queen's temperament, forming a unique charm.
Noticing that Krydella was also staring intently at him, waiting for her reaction, Hua Yi decisively gave her a thumbs up.
“Through the lingering shadows of time, she is indistinct, but face to face like this, the existence of Krydella becomes completely clear—she is lovely, she is beautiful!”
"..."
Her Majesty the Queen was stunned for a moment.
Even though she had spoken with Hua Yi at the very end of the film and had a general idea of what kind of person her benefactor was, hearing Hua Yi's straightforward praise still surprised Krydella.
It's not like a meeting between gods and humans, or between a caregiver and the cared-for; it's more like a reunion of familiar friends who haven't seen each other in a long time, with the two of them very close to each other.
Yeah, I'm quite happy.
But Krydella did not reveal her true feelings; she forced herself to maintain her composure.
"Cute? How is using that word to describe me any different from simply saying you lack authority?"
"The difference is that I haven't said it yet. I am quite frank and don't beat around the bush."
Hua Yi began to measure with his palm, fingers together, using the top of the girl's head as the horizontal plane, but he could only measure up to below his own chest.
It's below, not even level with the chest.
"If you really want to complain, this is how you should do it—Crydella, all these years have passed, and you haven't grown at all."
How offensive!
Upon hearing this, Krystal tightened her grip on the scepter, her eyes sharp, radiating a powerful aura perfectly befitting an empress, which she then deliberately dissipated before pressing down on Hua Yi.
How could she possibly lose her temper with the person who had witnessed her most vulnerable and helpless period?
Simply glaring with wide eyes to express her dissatisfaction was the best Crydella could do.
"Don't you have any other lines?"
"Have."
Hua Yi revealed a serious expression, and the hand that was just gesturing the height difference between the two people turned into a head pat, directly stroking Kryudela's head.
"I am so glad that a thousand years ago in Onphalus, you, the Queen, emerged out of nowhere, used war to end war, unified many city-states, spread the law, executed the evil nobles, and allowed the simple people to live in peace and prosperity."
"!"
The moment Keludela was patted on the head, she tried to break free from Hua Yi's grasp.
Despite the height difference, she is still Empress Caesar, a proud and aloof monarch. Even Hua Yi could never treat her like a child and make fun of her!
But this is not a prank at all.
Hua Yi's sincere praise of Keludela left the latter stunned.
"You, Heather, Tirispius, and many other virtuous people, your existence allows me to raise my goals and pursue the possibility of creating Onpharos. Otherwise, the war that ravages the land and the tragedies soaked in blood and tears would be enough to haunt me."
"...As a monarch, I will not allow my subjects to suffer."
Listening to Hua Yi's heartfelt words, and looking into that window to her soul, Kelides found it difficult to maintain her expression.
Tsk, I need to put on a stern face—
failure!
Krydella's eyes softened, and she transformed from the Queen of the Burning Crown back into a little girl from the snowy plains.
She couldn't resist Hua Yi's sincerity at all, and her defenses were broken down in an instant.
This guy is suspicious! He can easily manipulate the hearts of those around him.
It's as if the sun is drawing sunflowers in. (Read super exciting novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
"The savior from beyond the heavens exerts his mighty power, transcending time and space to exert influence. If I were to be mediocre and inactive, I would become a laughing stock."
"Your excellence is evident to me and your colleagues."
Seeing the lovely queen turn her head away to hide the complicated expression on her face, Hua Yi decisively turned to Heather.
I strive for fairness; how can I show favoritism?
Heather, the ocean princess, stood silently before the Sword Banner Lord of the Fire Chaser Army, her beautiful eyes gazing at her with serenity, gratitude, and a hint of expectation.
What are you expecting?
Hua Yi understood.
"I had only been in Ohma for a short time when Aglaia served me Divine Blood Honey Dew. The wine was as red as molten gold and its aroma was the fragrance of deep sea songs and ripe honey fruit—is there more? I'm getting hungry."
"Have!"
Heather smiled broadly.
“I have prepared countless honey brews for you, and Divine Blood Honey Dew is just one of them.”
"It seems the sirens have already prepared a grand feast?" Hua Yi said with great interest.
"It should be the Feast of Onphalus."
After a pause, Heather glanced at Hua Yi's companions before speaking.
"With so many people surrounding you, the unique wake of your swimming makes one feel as warm as returning to a harbor, and as relaxed as landing on an island—if I have the opportunity in the future, I hope to share my singing and piano music with you."
"That's quite a statement with a maritime theme, I'll be waiting."
Heather speaks in a poetic way, but upon closer examination, she seems incredibly frank.
She naturally came to stand beside the savior, serving as both a guard and a guide.
"Lord of Destiny and Lord of Flower Sea are completing the welcoming ceremony in the city. Please follow me."
Hua Yi could distinguish these titles.
The title of Lord of Destiny is given to Tirispius and the little Tibos, while the title of Lord of the Sea of Flowers is given to Porcia, the sister of the fairy. Both titles were given by Crydela.
We can't keep them waiting any longer.
"Is there an additional ceremony? Let's hurry over there."
Spanning a sea of flowers, a fortified city built by humankind stands atop the River Styx. (Qianqianhao) The city walls are constructed of perfectly cut white granite, with stones fitting together seamlessly, reaching heights of tens of meters. The sloping surface is bathed in moonlight, and banners flutter in the wind.
The city's architectural system is similar to that of Ohm, but due to the unique environment of the River Styx, it feels even more epic.
Inside the square towers on the city wall, the little Tibos were peeking furtively. When they saw Hua Yi and his group approaching the city, they cheered and ignited rockets with their tender hands.
There are a total of one thousand small rockets, three of which are empty, and the remaining ones are given to each of the little Tibos as an uncle.
"Let's go—takeoff!"
"NG!"
The Tibbers soared into the sky on rockets, bursting into flames that illuminated the underworld. Then, nearly a thousand red-haired little girls descended from the sky.
Their adorable faces were filled with joy and excitement as they fell towards Hua Yi.
"Tibo's great hero, catch us!"
The ultimate skill: firing a thousand arrows simultaneously!
Tibo immediately unleashed her ultimate attack on the Savior.

"That's a bit of a dilemma."
