So I'm a sheep.

Yes, there is a serious problem!

The four waves of giants wreaked havoc in the city, yet the entire Marquis's mansion remained completely intact? How strange!

"That woman is a sorceress who has just advanced to the White Robe rank because she devoured a large number of giant souls."

An Kang said gravely, "I only have one skill left, and I'm afraid it won't be enough to suppress her."

"Friend, be careful!"

"..."

"Didn't you still have three-tenths of your skill left? How did it become only one-tenth!"

Sasha stared wide-eyed at An Kang: "Don't tell me you think three-tenths of your ability isn't enough to impress a junior, so you're deliberately saying one-tenth?"

"How much skill I have left isn't the point, okay! The key is that I can't control Camilla, and the key is that we've accidentally gotten caught up in a huge conspiracy."

The girl nodded, showing no sign of panic.

"Ankang, don't rush, tell me slowly."

"Alas, the souls of giants are a great tonic for wizards, and their bodies can also be made into powerful weapons of war!"

"After such a fine group of giants were captured and killed, many wizards regretted it deeply. They should have kept a batch of them in captivity."

..........................................

There's no going back in life. The wizards still want giants, but there are no giants left on the continent. What can they do?

Let's get to the root of the problem!

Where did the first giants come from?

Humans mutated, giant sea monsters came ashore and slowly evolved, or perhaps there exists an underground world?

The wizards spent a great deal of effort researching and finally came to an astonishing conclusion—the giants came down from the sky!

Many years ago, there was a 'tree reaching the sky' on land.

Legend has it that if you keep climbing this tree, you will reach the land of giants.

Where humans go up, giants will naturally come down.

As more giants descended, they formed giant communities in twos and threes.

They felt that resources on earth were more abundant than in the sky, and they had no intention of going back.

Much later, the Tower of Babel reached the end of its lifespan and gradually withered and died.

With a deafening roar, it fell, and the giant in the sky could never come down again.

"That's amazing? It sounds like a bedtime story to me."

"It's true! The Wizarding Council even found the remains of the Tower of Babel!"

An Kang said seriously, "Countless wizards are ambitious and want to restore the remains of the Tower of Babel to life. Even though I, as the Speaker, have tried my best to stop them, all kinds of research have only gone from open to covert."

"I hadn't thought about it this way when I saw that giant before, but I found out once I got into the city."

If the Speaker in the colorful robes could escape being personally hunted by the Elf Queen, then naturally other powerful wizards must have survived as well.

They left behind secret traditions throughout the kingdom and even reintegrated their bloodline into the aristocratic system.

Camilla may be a lucky one who has inherited the wizarding legacy, or perhaps her family is a wizarding family that has always been deeply hidden!

..........................................

"I like giants, but I strongly oppose the plan to revive the Tower of Babel. It's not for any other reason, I'm just afraid."

An Kang spoke frankly: "Ordinary giants are nothing, but who knows how many extraordinary giants have been born in the Heavenly Giant Kingdom over such a long period of time?"

"Improving our strength is important, but the safety of humanity must come first!"

After listening to the wizard's long-winded explanation, the girl showed a touched expression.

Although he has been an anglerfish for over two hundred years, Ankang still cares deeply for humankind. He is truly a wonderful shaman!

Compared to others, Camilla appears selfish and narrow-minded.

"So what do we do now?" Sasha asked.

"My mind is a mess right now, let me calm down."

Ankang kept swimming back and forth in the fish tank. After a while, he said, "You go to sleep first tonight. I'll go out and check it out."

"Explore what?"

"This incident was most likely orchestrated by Camilla, but I still need to find conclusive evidence."

The wizard said ominously, "She's a promising young woman in white robes, after all. We shouldn't ruin her foundation so easily."

"Didn't you say you couldn't handle her?"

"A direct confrontation is risky, but a sneak attack is a different story."

An Kang said in a deep voice, "That young man said that after Camilla killed the first giant, she placed him in the South District."

"The first step in turning giants into war puppets is not simple. They must be injected with an active agent within ten days of their death, and such active agents cannot be made overnight."

"I'll just have to go there and see for myself, and then I'll know the truth!"

............................................

That night, Ankang cast a concealment spell and a levitation spell on himself and the fish tank, and then quietly slipped away.

Sasha had something on her mind and tossed and turned for a long time, unable to fall asleep.

It's almost dawn, why aren't they back yet?

'Could it be that he's already been exposed and captured and tortured by Camilla?'

Over the course of their time together, Sasha and Ankang have developed a friendship.

If he is truly in danger...

The door opened silently, and the girl looked closely—it was An Kang!

Sasha quickly got out of bed and closed the door, then whispered, "How was it?"

"Hey, that guy's really cunning, guess what?" An Kang piqued his curiosity.

"What's wrong? Tell me, tell me now!"

"She buried the lower bodies of those giants underground and built their upper bodies into the city walls."

"We can simply announce to the public that all the dead Titans have been cremated, and we can fool everyone!"

That's great! So creative.

Sasha clicked her tongue in amazement, then couldn't help but complain, "Why did it take you so long to come and go? I thought you'd been exposed, and I was trying to figure out how to save you."

"Haha, after seeing the Giant Wall, I rushed to the giant I killed and summoned wild beasts to give him a good thrashing."

"Now even if Camilla secretly transports him to the city, she will definitely not be able to detect anything."

Volume 1: Chapter 662 Generosity

An Kang was very cautious, and he tried every means to conceal the fact that Sasha possessed a divine weapon.

Marquis Camilla is ambitious. Having finally connected with the giant kingdom in the sky, now is the time to reap the rewards.

How can we allow that bean tree to be lost?

Indeed, it cannot be cut by an axe, sawed, or lit with fire.

but!

So what if we use divine weapons?

If Sasha becomes a thorn in Camilla's side, then things will be dangerous.

The white-robed wizard wanted to kill someone, but his various spells were impossible to defend against.

Ankang is currently at a low point in his strength, so he really has no confidence in protecting the girl!

"Buddy, what should we do next?"

Sasha said uncertainly, "How about I just cover my face with a black cloth and sneak into Marquis Camilla's room under the cover of night to kill her?"

"Then, with the lake's light intact, cut down that bean tree, and that will be the end of it!"

"Are you perhaps a bandit? This matter cannot be handled so simply and crudely."

An Kang stared at the girl in astonishment: "If you and I cooperate, we might indeed be able to kill her with a single blow if we catch her off guard. The problem is, once Camilla dies, we'll become wanted criminals in the kingdom."

“Covering your face with a black cloth isn’t a magic bullet, unless you’re ruthless enough to wipe out the entire Marquis’s mansion, and also kill all the cavalrymen who saw you.”

"otherwise......"

Sasha shook her head repeatedly; her dream was to become a hero of the kingdom, not a murderous maniac.

"I thought about it before I went out, and I felt that we should wait patiently for the current situation."

"Wait for what?"

"Wait for the king's messenger to arrive!"

An Kang said with certainty, "Camilla has been suppressing the news for so long, it's almost too late."

“A man-eating monster has appeared in the marquisate, and the lord has been unable to resolve the problem for a long time. The king will surely send an envoy to inquire about it.”

"As soon as the messenger arrived, I ambushed Camilla. You take the opportunity to find the messenger and tell him that you have a way to cut down the bean tree, and get his full cooperation!"

............................................

Sasha thought that Ankang, as a former speaker of the council, truly had a way with things.

"That's a great idea, let's do it!"

After discussing some details with An Kang, the girl finally fell into a deep sleep when it was already broad daylight outside.

"..."

"Miss Sally, excuse me, I've come to bring breakfast."

There was no response from inside the house, only loud snoring.
