The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing-Chapter 696 - 362 [Holy City Spring]

The citizens of Avad broke into a cold sweat; they had never seen such a pure-born who could reverse the situation so drastically upon coming into power — Cosmic-born!

The Mother Goddess must be blind to have chosen you as the Chosen!

Some citizens even began to doubt if the Seven Gods were Ansu's Star Fury.

But the three hundred thousand citizens of the Judgement Court were completely thrilled — truly the Child of the Curse, effortlessly achieving what they dared not even imagine.

"Ten Million Air Transports, deploy."

Ansu issued his first order after becoming one of the Seven Gods' Chosen.

"Starting today, implement a comprehensive state of martial law. Prohibit all illegal assemblies, enforce a curfew, and control the movement of suspicious individuals."

All the citizens looked at each other with confusion; indeed, the Chaotic Church Nation had established the First Air Transport Dragon Rider Group, a brigade composed entirely of top-tier Dragon Riders, representing the most formidable aerial power in all of Avad.

A hundred years ago, the city hall at the Chaotic Frontier was destroyed by a two-headed dragon thanks to the efforts of the First Dragon Rider Group.

There was the Fire Dragon Knight, riding the fiery flame dragon, the Demon Dragon Knight, riding the abyssal giant dragon, and most notably, the deputy commander and the commander of the Dragon Rider Team were both selected as the annual best Dragon Riders.

Each of them was extraordinary, their fighting spirit and determination were awe-inspiring, their secret maneuvers brought unexpected surprises.

The deputy commander, a human-dragon hybrid, rode a giant dragon that was his xylophone; he loved peace, was good-natured, righteous in action, wherever he went, his enemy's xylophones were also totally eradicated, earning him the reputation of 'Blood-handed Man Map', beloved by the orphans of the Holy City, hence also known as the Dragon Map Knight.

And the commander of the First Air Transport Dragon Rider Group was astute, perceptive, and tactical. The dragon he rode bestowed the blessing of the 'Calamity and Nurgle' faith, invisible, unheard, unspoken, carrying a Calamity domain, capable of spreading any carried diseases instantly. Any enemy who eyed the commander would contract a terrifying calamity known as 'Diabetes.'

This man was the most renowned Dragon Rider of the whole Church Nation — the Milk Dragon Knight.

People were stunned; without the transfer orders from the Dragon Map Knight and Milk Dragon Knight, Ansu Quasi-Councilor had no authority to mobilize the First Air Transport Group, much less declare martial law across the nation.

After a moment's thought, everyone laughed — the Air Transport Team had no obligation of allegiance to Ansu.

This young man had no military force; how could he enforce a comprehensive state of martial law?

Not to mention 'prohibiting illegal gatherings', 'enforcing curfew', 'controlling the movement of suspicious individuals'?

Illegal gatherings were the national policy of the Chaotic Church Nation. Without them, where to look for so many riots to boost performance? Enforcing a curfew was utterly fantastical; nights were prime times for criminal activities. Without a curfew, who would do zero-cost shopping at night, and district crime statistics would not meet targets.

Lastly, controlling the movement of suspicious individuals.

Suspicious individuals, such as bandits and robbers, were urgently needed technical talents in Avad. Even high salaries could not attract them, so what right did you have to control their movements?

Councilor Ansu, today was your first day in office.

But the scorn in their hearts had just begun to rise when they heard the roaring sound from afar.

It was the sound of countless wings trembling.

Like the densest raindrops in summer, the trembling sound of rain originated from every corner, from the sewers of the Holy City, from the slums' streets and the banks of the Awad River. The roaring grew louder and more rapid.

The citizens watching the broadcast were still unclear about what it was, only the residents of the Judgement Court District had turned pale.

Only they knew what it was — Ansu's First Air Transport wasn't just a singular group but Ten Million Air Transports.

Totaling one hundred million.

As Ansu's words fell, his most loyal direct troop audaciously took off. The urgent summer rain instantly turned into a fierce storm, the dark sky filled with heavy black clouds, but upon closer inspection, they were not clouds, but droplets of Fallen Angels linked together forming a dense sea of mosquitoes.

After draining the blood from Chaotic City, and then extracting the blood from the citizens of the Judgement Court District, the Fallen Angels had bred to a terrifyingly massive number.
