The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 435 Three Nodes
At the crucial moment of the final battle, the traitors from the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction finally revealed their trump card—using the energy of the Divine Remains Crystal to tear apart the world barrier.

They activated a massive ritual device, beginning to channel the energy from the crystallized remains of the gods toward the world barrier.

As energy continues to accumulate, cracks and instability begin to appear in the world's barriers, as if they could collapse at any moment.

Faced with this crisis, David's team and the Star-Eyed Clan scholars knew they had to take immediate action.

However, stopping this ritual is no easy task.

It is heavily protected by the Council of Eternal Night and traitors from the Light faction, and requires immense power to break through.

At this critical moment, the mysterious ancient guardian stepped forward.

He decided to use his deep connection with the crystallized remains of the gods to try to dismantle the ritual from within.

Led by the Guardians, David's team, along with the Star-Eyed Clan scholars and members of the Alliance, launched their final assault.

They risked their lives to rush to the location of the ritual device and engaged in a fierce battle with the traitors from the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction.

In this fierce battle, the Guardian demonstrated his astonishing strength and wisdom.

He not only successfully disrupted the ritual, but also used the power of the divine crystal to fight back against the traitors of the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction.

Despite the guardians' efforts, the ritual device began to collapse and disintegrate. The energy within the divine remnant crystal also went out of control, raging everywhere.

However, the Guardian did not give up. He continued to use his power and wisdom to guide the energy and try to stabilize it.

After a great deal of effort, he finally managed to control the energy and reseal it back into the divine crystal.

After the Alliance achieved a major victory against the Night Council and the traitors of the Light Faction, in order to completely thwart their conspiracy, David's team decided to split up and send troops to three key nodes to intercept them.

These three nodes are "Abyssal Forge", "Pale Throne" and "Eye of the Void", all of which are key to the plans of the Eternal Night Council and the traitors of the Light faction.

David and Arya were chosen as part of the group to go to the "Abyssal Forge".

This node is located deep within the dark world; it is a massive underground furnace, said to contain fiery power powerful enough to destroy the world.

The main force of the Eternal Night Council is stationed here, and they are trying to use the power of the flames here to enhance the energy of the divine remnant crystals, thereby realizing their conspiracy.

David and Arya were well aware of the difficulty of this mission, but they also understood that only by destroying the "Abyss Furnace" could they completely sever the main source of power for the Council of Eternal Night.

Liana, on the other hand, went to the Pale Throne alone.

This node is located in the heart of the world of light. It is an ancient palace that was once a symbol of the light faction.

However, it has now been occupied by traitors from the Light faction and has become their command center for plotting conspiracies.

Liana's mission is to infiltrate the palace, confront the traitor leader head-on, destroy their command system, and thus thwart the entire conspiracy.

Nova led the remnants of the Star-Eyes race to guard the "Eye of the Void".

This node is located at the boundary between two worlds, a rift in the void that is said to connect endless darkness and unknown forces.

The Shadow Eater suicide squad is attempting to invade the Light World through this area. Nova and the remnants of the Star-Eyed Clan are tasked with holding their ground, resisting the Shadow Eater's attack, and ensuring the safety of both worlds.

After making this decision, David's team made meticulous plans and preparations.

They provided each team with the necessary equipment and intelligence support, and developed detailed action plans.

At the same time, they also prepared for the worst, equipping each team with emergency evacuation plans and communication equipment to ensure rapid evacuation and contact with other teams in case of an emergency.

David and Arya embarked on their journey to the "Abyssal Forge".

They traversed the wastelands and mountains of the dark world, enduring countless hardships and difficulties.

In this process, they not only have to face the challenges of nature, but also be constantly on guard against the pursuers of the Eternal Night Council.

Finally, they arrived at the entrance to the "Abyssal Forge".

This is a huge crater, surrounded by billowing smoke and blazing flames.

David and Arya took a deep breath and resolutely stepped into the crater.

Inside the crater is a huge underground cavern, surrounded by lava and rocks.

The main force of the Eternal Night Council is stationed here. They are dressed in black armor, wield sharp weapons, and their eyes reveal coldness and cruelty.

David and Arya carefully infiltrated the cave. They used the terrain and cover to conceal themselves and move around, trying to avoid direct confrontation with the enemy.

However, the soldiers of the Eternal Night Council seemed to have already detected their movements and continued to attack them.

David and Arya, with their excellent combat skills and perfect teamwork, successfully repelled multiple enemy attacks.

However, they also knew that this was not a sustainable solution and that they had to find a way to destroy the "Abyssal Forge" as soon as possible.

After some searching and exploration, they finally discovered the core of the furnace.

It was a huge heart of fire, radiating dazzling light and intense heat.

David and Arya understood that only by destroying the Heart of Flame could they completely destroy the Abyss Forge.

So they devised a bold plan.

David uses his speed and agility to draw the enemy's attention and create chaos, while Arya takes the opportunity to approach the Heart of Fire and launch an attack.

The plan is proceeding exceptionally smoothly.

David weaved, leaped, and attacked among the enemy, successfully creating chaos.

Arya seized the opportunity to approach the Heart of Flame and unleashed a fatal blow with her longsword.

With a deafening roar and a flash of dazzling light, the core of the "Abyss Furnace" was completely destroyed.

The cave was immediately plunged into chaos and darkness.

The soldiers of the Council of Eternal Night scattered in panic, while David and Arya took the opportunity to escape the dangerous place.

Meanwhile, Liana also embarked on her journey to the "Pale Throne".

She traversed the forests and grasslands of the world of light alone, facing countless unknowns and dangers.

However, she did not back down or feel afraid, but instead walked forward firmly.

She knew how difficult this mission was, but she also understood that only by completing this mission could the conspiracy of the Eternal Night Council and the traitors of the Light Faction be completely thwarted.

Finally, she arrived at the palace of the "Pale Throne".

This is an ancient and magnificent building, with various mysterious patterns and symbols carved on the walls.

However, it has now been occupied by traitors from the Light faction and has become a place full of intrigue and evil.

Liana took a deep breath and resolutely pushed open the palace doors. Inside was a spacious hall, in the center of which sat a huge throne. On the throne sat a man in a magnificent robe with a cold smile on his face—the traitorous leader of the Light faction.

Without hesitation, Liana walked directly to the throne and faced the leader of the traitors.

With a firm gaze and calm tone, she said, "Your plot has been exposed. Surrender!"

However, the traitor leader burst into laughter and said, "You think you can stop me? How naive! I have enough power to destroy the entire world!"

Ignoring his mockery, Liana continued, "No matter how powerful you are, you cannot change the fact that justice will ultimately prevail over evil!"

After saying that, she drew her long sword from her waist, preparing to have a direct confrontation with the traitor leader.

However, the leader of the traitors did not personally take action, but instead waved his hand to signal his men to attack Liana.

With her excellent combat skills and unwavering will, Liana successfully repelled numerous attacks from the traitor's henchmen.

However, she also knew that this couldn't go on; she had to find a way to defeat the traitor leader as soon as possible.

After some observation and thought, she discovered that although the leader of the traitors was sitting on the throne, he seemed somewhat unnatural.

She guessed that he might be subject to some kind of restriction or constraint, preventing him from moving freely or exerting his full strength.

So she devised a bold plan.

She used her speed and agility to move around the palace and create chaos to distract the traitor's men.

At the same time, she kept a close eye on the traitor leader's movements, looking for an opportunity to defeat him.

Finally, she found an opportunity amidst the chaos.

Taking advantage of the traitor's men's inattention, she swiftly rushed to the throne and swung her longsword to deliver a fatal blow to the traitor leader.

However, at that very moment, the leader of the traitors suddenly disappeared!

It turns out he was just an illusion!

The true traitor leader was already hiding in the shadows, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Liana!
Liana was startled, but she did not panic.

With her keen intuition and quick reflexes, she successfully dodged the traitor leader's sneak attack and retaliated by striking him with her sword.

Although the sword did not directly hit the traitor leader, it successfully enraged him.

He emerged from the shadows and revealed his true form—a man with a ferocious face and an aura of evil emanating from him.

He glared at Liana and said, "How dare you hurt me! I'll make you pay!"

After saying that, he waved his staff and launched a powerful magical attack on Liana.

With her excellent defensive skills and unwavering will, Liana successfully withstood his attack and prepared to counterattack.

However, at that moment, a violent tremor suddenly occurred inside the palace!

It turned out that news came from Nova's side—the Shadow Eater suicide squad had broken through their defenses and was approaching!

Liana felt a pang of anxiety; she knew she had to defeat the traitor leader as soon as possible and get to Nova's aid.

So she focused her mind and launched a fierce attack on the traitor leader.

After a fierce battle, Liana finally defeated the traitor leader and destroyed his command system with her outstanding strength and unwavering will.

However, she also knew that this was only a temporary victory; the real challenges were yet to come.

While Liana confronts the traitorous leader, Nova leads the remnants of the Star-Eyes in an unprecedented challenge at the "Eye of the Void."

The Shadow Eater suicide squads surged in like a tidal wave; their sheer numbers and formidable strength put immense pressure on Nova and her companions.

Nova was well aware of the difficulty of this mission. She knew that if they were even slightly careless, the Shadow Eater suicide squad could break through the defenses and invade the World of Light.

Therefore, she must do her utmost and hold her ground until Liana and David complete their mission and come to her aid.

She led the remaining Star-Eyed Clan in a tenacious resistance.

They used the terrain and cover to conceal themselves and fire, constantly causing trouble and losses for the Shadow Eater Commando.

At the same time, she constantly monitors the dynamics of the battlefield and adjusts tactics and deployments to cope with changes in the enemy.

However, the Shadow Devourer Commando Team is indeed very powerful.

They were not only numerous but also well-coordinated and tactically flexible, causing Nova and her team a great deal of trouble.

Nova and the remnants of the Star-Eyed Clan also suffered heavy losses in the battle; many brave warriors fell on the battlefield.

However, Nova did not give up or back down.

She continued to boost morale, direct the battle, and remain ready to meet new challenges.

She knew that if they persevered, they might receive reinforcements from Liana and David and eventually achieve victory.

Finally, during a fierce battle, Nova spotted a familiar figure—Liana!

She successfully defeated the traitor leader and came to their aid!
Nova was overjoyed and immediately signaled to Liana, informing her of the current situation.

Upon receiving the signal, Liana immediately led the support troops to the battlefield and joined Nova and the others.

With the addition of Liana and the support troops, Nova and her team were immediately relieved of much of their pressure.

They began to organize an effective counterattack and gradually regained the initiative on the battlefield.

Although the Shadow Eater suicide squad still put up a stubborn resistance, they could no longer change their fate of defeat.

After a fierce battle, Nova and Liana finally led their troops to a complete victory over the Shadow Eater suicide squad and defended the crucial point of the "Eye of the Void".

However, they also paid a heavy price; many brave warriors fell forever on the battlefield.

After the battle, Nova and Liana stood on the battlefield, silently mourning the fallen soldiers.

They knew that these soldiers sacrificed themselves for justice and peace, and that their spirit would forever inspire future generations.

At the same time, they also understood that this victory was only temporary and that the real challenges were yet to come.

They must continue their efforts and unite as one to completely thwart the conspiracy of the Eternal Night Council and the traitors of the Light Faction and safeguard the peace and tranquility of both worlds.

With the successive destruction of the three key nodes—the Abyss Furnace, the Pale Throne, and the Eye of the Void—the conspiracy of the Night Council and the traitors of the Light faction was completely exposed.

Their main force was defeated, their command system was destroyed, and their invasion plan failed.

The dawn of victory arrived in both the dark and light worlds.
