Vivian’s birthplace.
Twilight City.
This seems to be the first place Shen Sui wanted Alice to search for.
However, Vivian herself is a forbidden term in this era of the Dawn Continent. Although the War God Church tried to deify her, many of Vivian’s deeds have been tacitly erased.
Everything related to this city has been deleted jointly by nurous churches.
Humans are the easiest to forget history.
As long as the truth is erased from textbooks, after a few generations, no one will know the true history.
Thus, Bambul City, over the course of a thousand years of history, gradually shed all its characteristics, becoming just an ordinary city. Only the Extraordinary Clans that still preserve their heritage retain the truth of those days.
They do not want their descendants to naively provoke those they shouldn’t, so certain records must still be kept.
Today, Bambul City appears to be just a normal city, located at the border between Daylight and the Roland Empire. Though considered an important frontier town, its specific ntion in the Pope’s trial certainly raises significant concerns.
Then, it is highly likely that the Bambul City ntioned in this task exists as Vivian’s birthplace.
But, what does the Master of Thunder want with this city?
Since they had already found Vivian, though only as a Candlelight Illusion, Shen Sui no longer had the obsession to urgently find the city and hadn’t brought up the matter with Alice for a long ti.
But he never said there was no need to find it.
Therefore, when Alice learned of this, she was particularly excited and, after saying goodbye to Catherine, began eagerly calling for Shen Sui.
Shen Sui naturally responded to her call.
"Let’s go to Bambul City!" Alice’s eyes sparkled, not only for Claude’s sake, but she herself is also a fan of Vivian.
Countless legends about Vivian are circulated within the Roland Magic Academy.
"Aren’t you going to complete the task from the Dragon God Sect first?" you asked.
"No way, if I rush to do their bidding right after becoming proxy, it makes look cheap, and by then I won’t be able to demand a higher price."
Alice understands the art of manipulation; this is the ti to leave the Dragon God Sect on hold.
Although she can’t be called a true Pope without passing the Pope’s trial, Alice, acting as the Pope, is able to form a guard of her own.
Alice plans to transfer the Twilight Corps from Elm City.
Her involvent in this matter is to secure a greater space for survival for the Twilight Corps.
In the Roland Empire, what could offer more survival space than becoming part of the Thunder Knight Order?
Alice is true to her word, conveying this matter to Anna, who has already arrived at Elm City, via a Dragon Scale from the Star Abyss White Dragon.
What Alice intends to do next is to secretly integrate the main forces of the Twilight Corps into the Church of the Master of Thunder, then deploy them to the regions most ravaged by the Twilight Corps to "suppress bandits."
While requesting funds from the church under this pretext, constantly draining its resources, she simultaneously expands the Twilight Corps, ultimately aiming to eliminate the Church of the Master of Thunder.
Of course, the biggest issue in this endeavor is whether Alice can keep it completely concealed.
The Master of Thunder, as a god, may not be omnipotent and omniscient, but does have so perception of the church. Alice must be very careful, or else the plan could be exposed and lead to imdiate arrest, which would be counterproductive.
Alice has already begun executing this risky plan.
As a result, Shen Sui acquired a Spell Card nad "Substitution."
******
Card Na: "Substitution"
Category: Spell Card
Star Level: 6 Stars
Effect: Once per turn during either player’s turn, if a multi-form follower on the field is undergoing form transformation, you can activate this card to stop that transformation and then have another multi-form follower on the field undergo a form transformation.
******
Spell Cards with form transformation are generally quite powerful.
This "Substitution" card is also very strong, as it can not only prevent your opponent’s form transformation but also complete your own Soul Card’s form transformation at the opponent’s expense.
It’s a very good card.
When Shen Sui saw the effect, he had already decided to add this card to his deck.
The only thing to consider is which card to remove from the deck.
It’s a troubling thing; why do Life Card Duels have to limit the deck size?
Shen Sui pondered this as he began to strategize with Alice.
After all, having benefited from Alice’s circumstances (Soul Card acquisition) for so long, he had to repay her sohow.
With his injuries recuperated for so long, he could finally start moving again.
Since Alice decided to put the Dragon God Sect on hold, she must complete other Pope’s trials.
The task with the Sea Race can be completed on the way to Dragon Island.
Of course, Alice wouldn’t be so kind as to help the Church of the Master of Thunder win over the Sea Race.
However, under the guise of this Pope’s trial, she can still seek their help to strengthen the Twilight Corps.
"Among the alien races, should it be the Giants or the Blood Race?" Alice asked Shen Sui.
Actually, she already had an answer in her heart.
While Vampires seem quite scary, Miss Isabella, it appears, is Claude’s lover. Why not take this opportunity to check things out there?
Shen Sui also sowhat missed Isabella.
Though she often relayed ssages through Xinyuan Tanchun, due to the extre ugliness of the dolls made by Xinyuan Tanchun, her entry into reality had been progressing poorly. It was quite frustrating, so he decided to go and comfort her.
As for where Isabella is now?
For Shen Sui, finding this out was very simple.
"Hello?" Xinyuan Tanchun answered Shen Sui’s call sowhat quizzically, "What’s up?"
"Where is Isabella now?" Shen Sui bluntly asked.
Xinyuan Tanchun was taken aback and instinctively replied, "Digging graves."
"???" Shen Sui was full of question marks, "What kind of play is this?"
"Whoa! Don’t make it sound like I have so weird fetish! There are reasons for all of this!" Xinyuan Tanchun hurriedly explained, "Recently the Dawn Continent has been unstable, as you know. Not long ago, a group of necromancers erged, specializing in digging up the graves of the strong and reviving the corpses for control. Isabella, in order to protect her friends’ coffins, is now hunting those necromancers."
"Uh, so why are you grave digging?"
"It’s to prevent a necromancer ambush."
"To prevent soone from digging up my friends, I dig them up first, right?" Shen Sui, though understanding the logic, found it amusing and quipped, "So where is she now?"
"Bambul City."
Xinyuan Tanchun ntioned a place that took Shen Sui by surprise.
"Whose grave is there?"
"Twilight Saintess Vivian’s."
