Kresto said this lightly, but Romios, Menilman, and Princess May were all “enraged.” They didn’t know that Kresto had practiced earlier, which is why he could advance to the Second Level before them.

They simply felt that he was provoking them.

Charles also sensed the “discord” within the group.

He could only suppress his headache and tried to soothe them, “It seems that once we reach the capital of the Mazon Kingdom, everyone will be able to advance beyond Fifth Level.”

They continued on their way, and soon came upon a village, the scene of which momentarily stunned them.

The village was also covered with various plants.

...

Initially, Charles thought there were no people left, but he soon discovered there were indeed living people.

However, they were all entwined with various plants, not from the outside world but growing from within their own bodies.

When Charles found the first person, he initially thought the person was dead.

But this villager of the Mazon Kingdom, upon seeing Charles, had a look of pleading in his eyes.

Only a large and beautiful flower had grown out of his mouth, preventing him from speaking—only managing to struggle and gesture for help towards Charles.

Romios came over, took a look, and said, “His body is already filled with these plants; he is now relying on these plants to provide him nutrients to stay alive.

We can’t save him; separating him from these plants could likely kill him.”

Charles nodded in agreement with Romios’s words.

The man’s body had no blood, flesh, bones, or organs left, just entangled roots of several kinds of plants; he simply couldn’t separate him.

This was already the power of a Deity, and even if it were an Evil God, mortals could not change anything.

Especially since the villager was still alive, it was truly indefensible to attempt to kill him.

Soon, others also discovered more living villagers.

Charles wanted to ask Amon or Dapocirodo what was going on and whether there was any way to relieve their suffering, but he immediately shook his head and abandoned the idea.

Charles spoke in a low voice, “Let’s continue moving forward.”

“We must hurry to Manise City; only there can we resolve this issue completely.”

The Mazon Kingdom, situated on the Old Continent, was not particularly small either.

Its size was roughly comparable to Southseraph combined with Behemoth Duchy.

It was divided into three major regions, each with only one large city.

The capital, Manise City, was the largest city in Mazon, home to one-third of the kingdom’s population.

Thus, only by reaching Manise City could they discover what had become of the Mazon Kingdom.

Romios, Kresto, Menilman, and Princess May all silently agreed with Charles’s view.

They did not linger in the village or continue to explore it but quickly left and pressed onward.

Charles was a transmigrator.

On Earth, he had never seen such cruel sights.

Of course, this did not mean that there were no cruel events on Earth, but ordinary people simply would not see or come in contact with them.

They would only see peace and tranquility, at most feeling society’s harsh blows and the mountainous pressure of the economy.

Although it was also very painful…

That evening, Romios, Menilman, and Princess May all broke through the Second Level and immediately began striving towards the Third Level.

The slightly leading Kresto, frightened, even practiced in his sleep, fearing that the three companions would surpass him and cause him to lose face.

Charles simply gave up, competing over such matters was meaningless to him.

Yes, he was destined not to surpass these geniuses.

Within the Mazon Kingdom, the land was entirely overgrown with plants, making it extremely difficult to traverse.

Typically, a journey that would take only five or six days on foot took three people seven to eight days until they finally glimpsed the tallest building in Manise—the Lingkong Tower!

This Lingkong Tower was constructed to commemorate one of the Nine Great True Gods, the God of Mechanics and Alchemy.

It is said that the tower was built based on the blueprints handed down by a follower of the God of Mechanics and Alchemy, and upon completion, it had very unique functions.

However, the follower, whose life’s wish was to draw all the blueprints passed down by the God of Mechanics and Alchemy, drew for twelve years but died after falling gravely ill, leaving the Lingkong Tower’s blueprints incomplete.

Although the King of Mazon Kingdom at the time enthusiastically invested resources, after learning the emperor had died, the Lingkong Tower was never completed, and successive generations of emperors could no longer bear the ceaseless investment, gradually reducing funds until the Lingkong Tower was left mostly hollow, with only its shell constructed.

Naturally, it never exhibited its power or any miraculous effects.

Instead, the construction of the Lingkong Tower considerably weakened the strength of the Mazon Kingdom and even cost them the opportunity to explore the New Continent.

Charles gazed at the Lingkong Tower, a miracle built under the guidance of the God of Mechanics and Alchemy, now lush with greenery and covered in various plants, many of which were not native to this world and looked wildly ferocious and horrifying.

Charles sighed and said, “I hope not all the people of Mazon Kingdom are gone.”

Although Romios wanted to say, “How is that even possible?” he couldn’t bring himself to say it, as the idea of an entire nation devoured by an Evil God was too horrifying, a scenario rarely seen even in the New Continent.

After a brief rest, the five of them hurried onward and arrived near Manise City by dusk.

What shocked Charles and the others was that the city seemed normal, with people continuously entering and leaving.

But this was not normal at all!

After observing for a long time, Charles whispered, “There’s a person who has left the city eight times and entered eight times.

In about three minutes, he should come out again.”

Menilman whispered back, “It’s not just the people entering and leaving that are strange.

At this time, all the cities on the Old Continent would have closed their gates; no city would allow entry during the night.”

Romios sighed and said, “They must have all undergone a cursed transformation.”

The five of them fell silent for a while before Charles whispered, “I’ll go into the city to investigate.

If I encounter danger, you all come to rescue me together.

If I’m not detected, you follow behind into the city, and we’ll meet under the Lingkong Tower.”

Menilman wanted to stop him but soon realized it was the best plan.

At a time when they all dared not use their Sacred level powers, Charles’s Second Level Transcendent strength was currently the strongest combat power they had.

If he was alright, everyone else could blend in; if something happened to him, it meant the situation was dire, and they would either directly use Sacred level power to rescue and escape or start a fight.

Charles took a deep breath and strode toward the gates of Manise.

The people coming and going did not notice him, but the grass on the ground seemed to sense something, continuously reaching upwards trying to pierce the soles of Charles’s feet.

However, Charles Meklen possessed the Bloodthirsty Fighting Spirit, and although only Second Level, it was enough to protect him.

One step at a time, he entered Manise, and after passing the gate, saw that the stone-paved ground was overturned, the supposed dirt road turned grassy, no trace of the original black dirt visible.

The nearby buildings were all covered in plants, looking like houses abandoned for many years with no residents, letting flowers and plants take over.

Entering the city area, the roadside flora became even more aggressive, swirling towards Charles.

Transforming into a Silverback Ape Person, with his first awakened special ability, Vajra, he could mostly withstand it, though not without trouble.

Circling around, he felt he could withstand it but knew the rest of his team definitely could not, which forced him to retreat again.

As Menilman and Princess May spotted Charles’s figure, both girls jumped up excitedly and rushed toward him.
