While the Kingdom Guild was preparing for the Disaster, unfolding in the vast territory of the Federation in Limbo, the Temple was in full swing with its own preparations.
Arabel's sudden pregnancy and the problem Sierra faced after the formation of her First Trinity forced a change in the original plan to take over the two remaining Temples.
Of the two initial teams:
* The first group: Lina, Nemo, Princess, Milica and Aliya.
* The second group: Sierra, Lucinda, Eulalia, Liam and Alois.
One team was created, and this ti it was decided to aim at conquering only one of the two Temples.
* New group: Lina, Nemo, Aliya, Eulalia, Liam and Alois.
Milica has also temporarily dropped out of the team, as Hector arrives in the Temple. She needed to discuss matters regarding the artifact and the possibility of creating it with him, so she couldn't keep the others company in the initial stage.
"Elira, you know what needs to be done, so as soon as we find out where the Lava Lake appeared, you can imdiately set off," Milica said, addressing the beauty with fiery red hair.
"Okay," — Elira nodded, checking the contents of her magic bag and making sure everything was in place.
She had to complete the not very difficult task of taking the promised batch of sweets to the Supervisors of the Lava Lake. After that, she could stay in the Lake and continue her cultivation, and perhaps even obtain a new batch of Fire Crystals.
For this, she was even given one of the two Diamond-grade pickaxes.
Although the task seed simple, Elira was very excited. On the one hand, she was looking forward to eting Rank 9 creatures, but on the other, she was very afraid.
At the sa ti, she wanted to return to the Lava Lake as soon as possible and start mining fire crystals not only for herself, but also for the Kingdom Guild in order to receive a reward for it.
As a reward for her previous help, Elira asked for the release of Hans, her acquaintance, with whom she arrived in the Central Continent.
After so consideration, Idan and the others agreed to her terms. Hans was released from prison, given a separate room and given freedom of movent. However, he was not allowed to leave the Kingdom and, as a precaution, the slave collar was not removed from his neck.
Even such a gesture was more than enough for Elira.
Besides, she had already gained enough benefits just by entering this place. She has reached the Diamond Rank, which would have been impossible for her in her forr world.
Less than an hour later, Milica and Eulalia received ssages from their doppelgangers who were in the Third and Second City of Limbo.
After checking their data, they shared it with the others.
"This ti, all signs indicate that temples have appeared in the Valley of Stones and in the Caves of the Insect Swarm," Milica announced.
"Well, there's no need to think about it," Alois comnted. "Let's go to the Valley of Stones."
And everyone agreed with his words without hesitation.
None of them, especially the won, had any desire to go to caves filled with insects.
Therefore, choosing the Valley of Stones as the target was the most obvious.
"I'm appointing Eulalia as the leader of the group, so listen to her," Milica added, and after saying that, she fixed her gaze on Alois.
"I don't mind," he shrugged, accepting the girl's appointnt to the role of leader rather than himself.
Previously, he could have objected, but after Eulalia, whom he previously knew, not only reached the Diamond Rank, but also surprisingly turned into a High Elf, he no longer had anything against her appointnt as a leader.
Besides, his personal student had fallen head over heels in love with this Elf, and as a master, he didn't want to get in the way.
"I agree too," Aliya said as soon as Milica turned her gaze on her.
"That's great," — Milica smiled and, looking at her first student, said: "It's not your first ti leading such sorties, but be vigilant anyway."
"Okay, Master, you can count on ," Eulalia said confidently, determined not to disappoint her Master.
"I will try to join you as soon as possible," Milica added at the end.
"Zarxil," Milica called, and a majestic Diamond—ranked Lightning Phoenix descended in front of the temple with a piercing scream and a thunderbolt.
"He will help and take you to the outer border of the Valley of Stones," said Milica, leading everyone to the entrance to the temple.
"I'm counting on you, partner," Milica stroked Phoenix, and he chirped happily.
Despite his high rank and intelligence, phoenix behaved like an ordinary big bird next to Milica, following his avian instinct, and was not at all embarrassed by his behavior.
"What the hell!" exclaid Alois, when he was struck by lightning at the mont when he was about to climb onto the back of a huge phoenix after the three girls who were already sitting on it.
"Hmph!" the phoenix snorted and did not allow two guys and one middle—aged man to climb on his back, allowing only the girls to climb up. All three were furious, including Nemo, whose face was hidden by a mask.
anwhile, the girls, sitting on the phoenix's back, could barely contain their laughter.
Milica just shook her head.
Then the phoenix spread its wings and soared into the sky, not forgetting to grab the three n tightly with its "Soul Force". Leaving behind a trail of bright purple lightning, he rushed in the direction where the Forbidden Zone appeared — the Valley of Stones.
"Okay, I have to go too," Elira said, and jumped up and turned into an elegant fire crane. She soared into the air and flew in the opposite direction, where another Forbidden Zone appeared — a Lava Lake, leaving behind a long fiery light.
Milica watched them go and, with a light sigh, wished them all good luck. Then she returned to the temple and waited for Hector and his entourage to appear.
