"And I went to see the leader of 'Paradise'."
King Nathan slowly rose and walked barefoot down the steps.
Seeing this, Anthony couldn't help but remind him, "Your Majesty, the succession ceremony has already begun. If you go out now... the assassins could make their move at any moment."
The woman said softly, "If my death can end the ritual, close the island again, and stop the outsiders from invading, then I will now keep you away from me and wait alone for the assassin to arrive with the Golden Branch."
"But I also know that even if the ceremony ends and Nathan is sealed off again, it won't stop them."
A trace of sorrow appeared on the woman's face.
“You said that the harsh weather and ocean currents could not stop those steel monsters, and just like before, they want to wipe out the Kingdom of Nathan.”
"The so-called succession ceremony is nothing but an excuse."
The woman closed her eyes slightly; she had already understood the meaning behind Mo Wen's words.
The times have changed.
Hundreds or even thousands of years ago, ordinary people could not tolerate the existence of Nathan.
They attempted to eliminate Nathan.
However, ordinary people were not powerful enough. Even with the full strength of the empire, they could only expel them from the country, and the vast Roman Empire disintegrated as a result.
For thousands of years they were exiled.
It's not that no country wants Nathan's power.
But even such a large empire was defeated, or rather, although it won, it lost itself.
The cost was too high for any nation to bear, which is why Nathan has continued to exist until now.
However, more than two thousand years have passed, human civilization has continued to progress, and technology has developed rapidly. It is no longer necessary to pay much price to launch a campaign against Nathan.
"Is this what you wanted to say?"
The woman murmured softly, "The whole world is progressing, but we are like stagnant water, stuck in the same place, quietly decaying and rotting away."
"So this time, the succession ceremony will bring Nathan back into the picture. This kind of thing is bound to happen, even if it doesn't happen now, it will definitely happen in the future."
"You mean this, Mo Wen?"
Unfortunately, she found out too late.
Or rather, even if you knew, it wouldn't matter.
Because that's just how Nathan is, and no one can change that, not even her.
Taking a deep breath, the woman began to sense the entire island of Nathan. She soon discovered that in the southern part of the island, there was a group of people radiating vitality, and one of them had particularly strong vitality, even comparable to the sum of the others.
"Such vibrant, such twisted life, it's definitely worth the trip."
The woman strode forward.
With each step she took, her figure twisted and disappeared as if sucked into a black hole.
Seeing that their king had left, they worked hard to protect Nathan.
A barely perceptible look of guilt crossed Elijah's face.
But it disappeared quickly, like an illusion.
"Now that the king has gone, I will set off as well."
Elijah, his expression returning to normal, addressed the crowd.
The other Nathan guards nodded: "Go and return quickly."
Elijah teleported away.
When they reappeared, they had arrived at the edge of Nathan Island, which was the 'pier' where the Nathan Guards left the island, but in reality it was just a relatively wide area of sea.
"Mo Wen...can you really bring Nathan hope for salvation?"
Elijah stood on the reef, the sea breeze ruffling his hair, his face a mixture of hope and struggle.
Why didn't you show up sooner?
"Whether it's true or false, I have nowhere to retreat now."
He took out his satellite phone and called the chairman of Nadutong.
Zhao Fangxu made the call.
......
Looking for free gifts~
Chapter 524 We've been watching you for a long time, Elijah, you are the most special guardian.
"beep..."
"beep..."
The phone rang a few times, and then a deep, steady voice came through the receiver.
"Who?"
"Hello, Mr. Zhao, Chairman of Nadutong, I am Nathan Wei, Elijah Jones."
After the call connected, Elijah calmly revealed his identity.
"Nathanwei?"
Zhao Fangxu was somewhat surprised to hear this. Shouldn't Nathan Island be in a state of chaos because of Behemoth at this time?
How come you still have time to call yourself?
Could it be that they want to ask for assistance from Nadutong?
Zhao Fangxu frowned slightly, pondering why Elijah had called.
"No need to guess, Mr. Zhao, the purpose of my call is not to request assistance."
Elijah said calmly.
"So you want to..." Zhao Fangxu asked.
"I would like to ask you to help me contact one of the Ten Elders of your Dragon Kingdom, the Martial God Mr. Mo."
"Hmm? Looking for Mo Wen?"
Zhao Fangxu was genuinely surprised.
He never expected that Elijah's purpose in calling him was to ask him to help contact Mo Wen.
What's happening here?
Zhao Fangxu immediately recalled that after King Nathan announced the succession ceremony, he had invited Mo Wen to meet with him alone.
Could it be that they talked about something that time?
Zhao Fangxu's mind raced, but he remained outwardly calm as he asked, "What do you want with him?"
"As far as I know, you probably don't have time to do anything else right now, do you?"
"I cannot comment on that."
"Please help me make contact, Mr. Zhao."
Elijah said calmly.
The strange movements of the divine tree that King Nathan had just told them about gave Mo Wen's figure a revelation.
He definitely couldn't tell anyone about this, especially not Zhao Fangxu, the head of a large supernatural organization.
What if the other party uses this to their advantage?
Therefore, all we can do is plead in a low voice.
"...I'm sorry, Mr. Elijah, I don't know what Mo Wen is doing right now. He often goes into seclusion to cultivate, and he's been very busy lately due to development issues. I'm afraid I can't help you."
Zhao Fangxu declined.
He certainly couldn't help Elijah contact Mowen.
He had already asked Mo Wen to go to Nathan Island to stop Behemoth's actions.
All his actions during this period were kept secret; he didn't even tell the board of directors.
Why would they tell Elijah?
Even if Mo Wen met with Nasenwei after landing on the island, that was Mo Wen's own choice.
After all, with Mo Wen's cultivation and strength, as long as he doesn't want the people on the island to discover or recognize his identity...
That way, no one will ever notice.
Before that.
He couldn't reveal even the slightest trace of Mo Wen's whereabouts.
"Busy? Heh."
Elijah sneered, "What are you all busy with? Do you think he doesn't know?"
Since Behemoth publicly announced his intention to take over Nathan Island, it's likely that the official Inhuman agencies of various countries have taken action.
But Elijah couldn't say anything.
After all that.
It was all Elijah's own choice.
“Since we can’t get in touch with Mr. Zhao either, could you give me Mr. Mo’s contact information?” Elijah asked.
"Of course, but whether we can get in touch is another matter."
Zhao Fangxu said, and then gave Elijah Mo Wen's contact information.
Elijah wrote it down, said thank you, and hung up the satellite phone.
Then enter Mo Wen's mobile phone number on the keypad.
After typing, Elijah paused when only the dial button remained unpressed.
