Chapter 3933 Seven Mega Islands
There were quite a few big sects in Willowbank as well, and the number of middle-sized sects was countless.
Even a huge sect like Eclipse would only be considered middle-sized if compared to other sects at the same level in Willowbank.
At the core area of Sea of Stars, there were seven mega-islands.
The island with the biggest surface area was located right in the center of Sea of Stars, with the other six surrounding it.
When viewed from afar, it was obvious that the seven islands coincidentally combined to make an ancient formation.
In the sky above the islands, there was energy surging. Even though it was a dark night, there were still colorful patterns in the air.
Cordierite Association was located on the centermost island.
After the group entered the city, they noticed that the roads were wide and smooth. Even the ground was made of ore from the holy ley line.
There were tall buildings all over the city. One of them, in particular, had countless intense, dangerous auras coming from it. Those were the auras of the best elites from the major sects.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Orderly, rhythmic footsteps could be heard.
Throughout the city, they would see armored guards dressed in full military clothing patrolling the streets from time to time. They were all trained soldiers of the city defense army.
In terms of both individual combat prowess and cooperation in battle, the city defense army was terrifyingly powerful. If any regular sect were to be equipped with the weapons they had, those weapons would be regarded as ultimate weapons.
Even a standard large-scale sect would find it hard to defend themselves against an attack from a hundred members of the city defense army.
The leader of the group hurriedly brought everyone to a majestic building in the heart of the city.
However, it was no exaggeration to say that the structure before them seemed to pierce the clouds. Even though it was the dead of night, the building was still brightly lit.
If one were to look closely, one would realize that it was illuminated using top-class magical herbs that were able to emit light.
In front of the building, there were two lifelike lion sculptures that dwarfed them in size.
At a glance, though, one could tell that the sculptures were carved from dragon ley line crystals that gave off incredibly pure spiritual energy.
The huge door was forged out of purplish-gold aerosiderite. An antique plaque was hung in the middle of it.
The words “Cordierite Association” had been engraved on the plaque.
“We have arrived!” the leader announced.
The moment he said that, the door slowly swung open. Countless people walked out. They were helpers of Cordierite Association who had emerged to help unload the goods.
Despite the fact that they were plainly dressed, they were scarily strong. Even fighters from various major sects would not dare to underestimate them.
Aside from being helpers, they were also guards for the association.
“It’s been a long journey. Everyone, go inside and get yourselves together. The banquet and your pay have been prepared, so I shall not stay any longer,” the leader said to the many fighters.
The guards who had come along were all from major sects, so they were well aware of the Cordierite Association’s rules. Thus, they didn’t have much to say.
They went right into the building to enjoy the banquet and receive their pay.
The leader of the group, on the other hand, went into the main hall of Cordierite Association. He intended to report on the situation he had encountered in Dragon’s Grave Valley.
The building in Willowbank was Cordierite Association’s second branch. The branch manager and the chairman of Cordierite Association were from the same alma mater.
After getting past security, the leader of the group smoothly made his way into the main hall. An old man with a white head of hair as well as a white beard was sitting in a gold-rimmed chair.
“Greetings, Mr. Fitzgerald.” The leader knelt and greeted him with the utmost respect.
Albert nodded subtly and muttered, “It must have been a long journey, Mr. Finnegan. You can get up.”
Gavin Finnegan slowly got up and politely stated, “Mr. Fitzgerald, while passing through Dragon’s Grave Valley, I noticed something odd. I came back to report to you.”
He then gave a detailed explanation of the miraculous phenomenon.
A glint flashed across Albert’s eyes when he heard that. He made a decision on the spot.
