Great Nobleman.

Chapter 2066 Without a doubt, Bernard has been targeted by them!
Isis's birth immediately brought a lot of fun to the North Holland family.

Every day, quite a few ladies flock around the little guy.

Brand, after observing the situation for several days and seeing that the little guy was gradually adapting, was relieved.

Aside from regularly monitoring Isis's growth, Brand entrusted all other daily care to Kaya, Olivia, and members of the library specializing in monster taming.

He, on the other hand, continued to focus his energy on drawing rune arrays with his sister Celine.

At this point in time, the teleportation array of the simulated world, Water Blue Star, has been repaired.

They are now fully engaged in drawing the rune array for the [Summoning Greatsword - Prototype].

Because what they drew was a rune array at the level of ultimate great magic.

Furthermore, considering that this is the family's first artifact that they have made entirely on their own, they plan to push all variables to a high level and maximize the potential of the weapon prototype.

Therefore, their progress was relatively slow due to this choice.

Even if two people work together, with the help of the virtual manifestation, and draw rune arrays from morning till night every day.

Judging from their daily progress, it will likely take at least several more months before the project is completed.

Of course, while they were busy creating the artifact, the members of the library's research department were not idle either.

Apart from some ongoing long-term research projects.

Another important research project initiated by Brand:
The search for the end of the continent of Vantim and the exploration of the endless sky continue.

They have been back from Rios for more than two months.

The data analysis from the last experiment has now been completed.

Just a few days ago, Anna, who had freed up some time from the [Summoning the Greatsword] project, along with Rosaline Russell, the leader of the Library Research Department who had previously worked on the [Blackrock Wasteland] research project, arrived.

The two of them, along with many members of the library's research department, went to a wasteland in the central region of the continent of Vantim to begin field research and a new round of experiments.

The Eye of the Sky and the Star of Blossoms created by Brand have already been taken there by them.

This time, they won't be content to just stay at the Star Boundary Line for research.

They will keep the Eye of the Sky moving upwards until they can observe the entire continent of Vantim!
At the speed of their [Eye of the Sky] travel, it would only take them a few days to travel from the ground to the [Star Boundary].

However, according to the knowledge passed down from the guardians, in order to go further up and reach a height where one can observe an entire continent...

The time required will inevitably increase significantly.

—The higher you go in the sky, the denser the space becomes!
Of course, Brand wouldn't completely trust the information from the Guardians, no matter how specific the situation was.

They will personally explore all the secrets and truths, and then collect them one by one in the North Holland family's library.

—Just like the 'essence of the stellar element' that they have already demonstrated!

That afternoon, while drawing rune arrays in the research room of the castle's main building.

Celine asked casually:
"By the way, I remember you said before that the two new fleets from the [Radiant Flame Hall] are now very close to the northwest and northeast coasts of the Osia Continent?"

Upon hearing this question, Brand nodded and said:

"That's right.

The northwestern coast of the continent of Osia has always been the territory of the [Radiant Fire Palace].

Therefore, their landing there was completely unimpeded; it was just a matter of time.

As for the northeast, just a week ago, the naval fleet of the Ossia Continent launched a full-scale attack to intercept them.

At this point in time, both sides have probably already opened up.

Upon hearing this, Celine asked curiously:

What will the result be?
Does the continent of Osia have a chance to stop this fleet? Or will it be the same as before?
After the previous surprise landing by the [Radiant Flame Palace] in the northwest, shouldn't the continent of Osia be more prepared?

Brand shook his head and said:

"It's hard to say. The surprise attack on the Osia Continent by the fleet from the [Radiant Hall] was actually something we had guessed beforehand, but the final result was still the same."

However, this time is indeed different.

Because the entire southern coast of the mainland fell, the northwestern coast followed suit.

The current naval power of the continent of Osia is actually concentrated in the relatively stable eastern and northeastern regions.

Therefore, the fleet that the continent of Osia set out to block the enemy this time was of an exaggerated size.

Overall, the opportunity still exists. It depends on whether other battlefields can hold their defensive lines or even send strong reinforcements.

Celine added:

"What about the northwestern front?"

"Once the fleet lands in the northwest, the pressure there will definitely increase, right?"

Brand nodded and said:
"Of course, so in recent days, Evelyn has begun to organize the people to evacuate further back."

At this point in time, the army of the [Radiant Flame Hall] is still blocked in the northern part of the [Emerald Domain], which is separated from it by the [Immortal Lake Domain] and lies within the [Azure Wind Domain].

However, they have already begun to prepare for the worst.

Once the fleet lands, the [Radiant Hall] will welcome more low-ranking soldiers, who will inevitably strive to further extend the battle lines.

This could lead to more breaches in the defenses of the northwestern part of the continent of Osia.

The Emerald Realm will inevitably face even more challenges.

……

Several days later, in the Emerald Dragon Palace, Evelyn's office.

Looking at the split-screen displays of the Dragon Emperors from other nearby regions shown on the magical light screen in front of her, Evelyn complained slightly:

"Why are there so many demon spies infiltrating again this time?"

We, the Emerald Realm, are currently organizing a further evacuation of our people.

Upon hearing this, a gentle lady with long, light blue hair shook her head and said:

"Evelyn, there's nothing we can do about it."

The [Radiant Hall] has recently launched an aggressive attack on us, aiming to render us unable to support the naval battles in the Northeast.

Some oversights are inevitable.

As soon as she finished speaking, Cecilia, the [Twilight Frost Dragon Queen] with long, ice-blue hair and wearing heavy armor, also spoke up:

“Evelyn, just as Luina said, the soldiers on the front lines are fighting with all their might.”

Of course, your situation is indeed somewhat special.

The reason these demon squads keep crossing the [Fairy Lake Domain] and infiltrating your area is something you can probably guess.

Hearing this, Evelyn felt somewhat helpless.

To say what is of great importance to them, the Emerald Realm, that their enemies might covet.

Aside from her, the highly symbolic Dragon Emperor, there is Bernard, the top blacksmith master on the continent of Osia!

In fact, Bernard, the master blacksmith, might have been even more important to the war than she, the Dragon Queen.

The outcome of a war is never just about the fighting on the front lines; logistics is also a crucial part.

Since Bernard joined the Emerald Realm, an astonishing number of master-level equipment has been crafted by him, and then exchanged for by many powerful individuals in the surrounding areas using contribution points to fight against enemies.

Bernard alone can forge ordinary master-level equipment at a speed that is equivalent to that of more than ten or even dozens of master blacksmiths!
Although Evelyn had done her best to keep the news under wraps.

All those in the know signed confidentiality agreements, promising not to leak the information even if they were captured.

However, intelligence does not necessarily have to be obtained by asking the enemy.

Many powerful individuals from the surrounding area returned to the front lines with powerful weapons and equipment they had never possessed before after their trip to Emerald City.

With a little attention, the truth behind these things is not hard to deduce!

And let's not forget that not everyone on the continent of Osia is satisfied with the rule of these dragon emperors.

It's possible that even in the Emerald City, there are still these rebellious spies.

These guys are clearly capable of finding relevant intelligence and leaking it to the demons.

In conclusion, based on the recent movements of these demonic infiltrators...

The most likely scenario is:

Bernard has been targeted by them!
