The communication with Badigal was very smooth. Could it be that it was smooth? Sha Duo has already taken on himself the most difficult part of purifying the Abyss. What the Seven Towers have to do is to use this to gain more benefits from the Northern Alliance.
How hard can this be!
Two days later, Xia Duo had completed the maintenance work on the main systems of the floating city, especially the war spell carrier, and good news also came from the Seven Towers.
On the condition that the Seven Towers purify the abyss of Dragon's Teeth Cliff (where the Demonborn Secret Palace is located), they can gain some convenience for Netheril in commercial and trade agreements with the countries of the Northland Alliance and facilitate a number of new Netherese alliances.
cooperation led by you.
Of course, these are long-term benefits, and no benefits can be seen yet.
Because Shado had repeatedly reminded them of the threat of demons, the Seven Towers also asked for Netheril to have more say in the demon intelligence analysis laboratory affiliated to the Northland Alliance.
This is a tangible short-term benefit, at least for Xia Duo, which means that by influencing the Seven Towers, he can indirectly influence or even lead the entire Northland Alliance's analysis and research direction on demon descendants.
Although he is not really leading the affairs related to the demon descendants, a push at a critical moment can already change the final direction of many events!
In addition to some practical benefits, the biggest gain from Netheril this time is international reputation. Compared with the previous countries that avoided the price of purifying the abyss, Netheril took the initiative to take over the matter, regardless of whether it can succeed in the end.
All of them greatly improved their reputation.
This is also what Shado hopes to see - Netheril is gradually showing a positive and responsible image of a great country in the north.
And the shaping of this image can also be fed back to the country of Netheril, which can have an impact on the Seven Towers and other relatively independent territories, making the overall environment of Netheril closer to order and stability either proactively or passively.
Similar to someone who often praises a person for his integrity, in order to maintain such a reputation, he will also try to maintain such a positive persona.
In a sense, this is also a kind of "fame burden". Whether you enjoy it or not depends on the trade-offs between benefits.
For Netheril, at least for now, being a responsible northern country has its own interests. As for the future, the stronger it is, the greater the interests will naturally be.
In fact, it was Shado who was leading Netheril in the direction of the "kingly way", providing a more convenient external environment for the future "civilized seizure" of Great Xia.
…
This morning, I was on a flat ground on the cliff of Longya Sea.
Under the watchful eyes of the envoys from the Northland Alliance, Shado transformed a light feather into the form of a holy seal and attached it to the back of his hand. Then he called out to the Holy Seal of Ted surging with holy light on the back of his hand.
The next moment, the faint sound of hymns floated over the sea cliff, and then dots of holy light emerged, quickly converging into a portal composed entirely of holy light.
As the portal appeared, a clearer chant sound came from inside, and what came out with it was the target of Sha Duo's summons——
The Angel Ted wearing golden armor and holding a big sword, and the team of Angels he leads.
As soon as Ted appeared, before he could reminisce with Xia Duo, the golden boy's hole, burning with holy flames, immediately emitted a light that seemed to be substantial.
At the same time, his expression became extremely serious. Without any instructions, his team of divine envoys had automatically raised their giant swords and coordinated with him to deliver a powerful blow——
I saw a huge sword of holy light emerging out of thin air, shooting straight into the sea cliff at a strange angle. The next moment, all the casters present felt the strong vibration of the magic network coming from the ground not far away.
What followed was a great explosion of abyssal aura, mixed with the broken holy light that suddenly erupted.
Without actually checking it, all the spellcasters present had the same idea - the abyss has expanded!
"Her Majesty Ted, wait a moment! It's almost a real abyss there! Please envoy Ted, please consider the long term!"
Hearing Xia Duo's words, and the fact that the judgment sword just seemed to have brought worse results, Tai Lun couldn't help but temporarily stopped the idea of continuing to attack. He put away the giant sword and said to Xia Duo:
"Master Xia Duo, what is going on? Why is there such a strong abyss atmosphere over there?"
So Xia Duo succinctly told Ted how the demon mage summoned the abyss to descend. Ted was not interested in the demon, but when it came to the abyss, he still couldn't help but ask one more question:
"When you say demon descendant, do you mean having demon blood?"
"Yes."
"Damn devil!"
Ted's eyes showed an almost unabashed look of murderousness. If there was a demon standing in front of him at this moment, he would most likely wipe out the opponent with his sword.
However, Xia Duo did not want to deviate from the topic just like that, so he reminded him: "Ted Divine Envoy, all countries in the main plane are investigating the problem of demons, but that abyss is really difficult for us to purify.
We hope that Angel Ted will help us."
"No problem, it is my duty to fight against the abyss. But when it comes to purifying the abyss, I need to observe it closely before I can make a judgment."
"I'll lead the way!"
As Xia Duo said this, he cast a spell and flew up, flying from the sea cliff to the side near the sea. The entrance to the "gem channel" that was previously "bombed" by the floating city's war spell [Light of Annihilation] was not far away.
On the cliff.
However, the aura of the abyss over there is so strong that Ted and his party don't need Xia Duo to lead the way, and even their flying speed is much faster than Xia Duo.
When Xia Duo flew to the entrance of the "Gem Passage", Ted's team had already penetrated deep into the passage, and the innermost part of this passage was where the Abyss was, and where the previous Demonic Secret Palace was.
Just after flying a certain distance inside, Xia Duo felt that the abyssal aura coming from inside was quickly dissipating. It seemed that Ted's team had already begun to take action.
But when he reached the innermost part, he saw Ted with a frown on his face, his eyes shining with holy flames staring at the abyss that continued to expand outwards.
"Master Xia Duo, your guess is correct. This is indeed a real abyss, and it is intrinsically connected to the abyss of the outer plane."

"Then now -" Xia Duo was afraid that the other party would say something like the abyss cannot be purified.
"It's like this. I'm better at fighting, but the Kingdom of Glory actually has a team of divine envoys responsible for purifying the abyss. I need to summon them."
"What do you need me to do?" Xia Duo asked.
"Not yet, let's purify this miniature abyss first!"
After finishing speaking, Ted turned to a team member behind him and ordered: "Camille, you immediately return to the Kingdom of Glory, find Pasetia, explain the situation here to him, and then tell him that I need his help!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Camille responded, then turned into a ball of holy light and gradually disappeared.
