Chapter 956: Go Looking for A Person (Part One)
Many intelligence networks worked overtime and overcapacity, trying to figure out the secret behind all this. However, even though many rumors were being passed around, almost none of them were validated.
There was only one thing that many people agreed on.
After thousands of years of growth and expansion, this religious force's ambition got out of hand and had to be vented. The hypocritical priests finally couldn't be satisfied by the power of being above the mortal world, and they were very interested in the luxurious lives filled with lust and desire. In almost everyone's mind, the Holy Church wanted to modify the world and make it have one church but no state; they wanted to take out all empires and be the only force. As a result, the Central Region of Azeroth, where the conflict between the Church and the States was the most intense, became Pope Blatter's test field.
At the same time, a lot of bad news came from other regions.
Evil God Kluivert that was rumored to have appeared about a year ago finally showed itself again on the continent. This terrifying demonic god of the Sea Tribe seemed to have recovered a portion of its strength, and it destroyed a level 1 empire in the Southern Region and devoured tens of millions of creatures. Finally, it enraged a young lord in the Southern Region. The two battle fiercely, and this demonic god disappeared again.
However, with its appearance, the Sea Tribe that had disappeared for thousands of years came back in a dominating fashion. Like big groups of bees and big herds of army ants, they appeared in the Aegean Sea in the Southern Region, and they blocked and killed all the military and merchant ships. For a while, they even went on land and destroyed hundreds of cities around the Aegean Sea and killed many humans. In the end, the human masters and the human empires couldn't hold back their anger, and a war between the two races began.
The worst news so far was that other rare races which had disappeared for a long time also showed their faces on this continent.
Some people claimed that they saw elf masters in the forests, and some people said that they saw dwarf masters buying iron ores and that they seemed to be making military arms. More shocking was that some people stated that they saw giant dragons flying in the air above the Mystery Sea by the edge of the Eastern Region!
All kinds of rumors flowed on the continent; it seemed like all races except for Orcs had appeared.
The changes on the continent made people feel anxious.
For most people, they were willing to be dogs during peace instead of humans during the chaos. Most of the ordinary people felt this way at this moment. Chaotic times were the best for heroes, giving them great opportunities. However, for ordinary people, they desired peace and survival.
In comparison, the weakest Northern Region was the most peaceful currently.
After Emperor Yassin became a demi-god, almost no war broke out in the Northern Region. The Leon Empire and the Zenit Empire kept peace with logic. Of course, the Anji Empire that was still experiencing the Undead Creature Catastrophe was an exception; people's faces would change color when talking about it as if it were a poisonous snake or scorpion.
Human Emperor Alexander of the North also got famous along with the Anji Empire. This powerful young lord who could counter the undead energy got famous after defeating Young Lord Reus of Ormond. He became a powerhouse who could rival people like Emperor Yassin of Zenit and Emperor Juninho of Leon, and many people looked up to him.
Chaos!
Chaos! Chaos! Chaos!

Chapter 956: Go Looking for A Person (Part Two)
All kinds of information were passed back to Fei and Chambord City.
For the last while, Chambord's intelligence group led by Head Minister Bast and Military Leader Brook worked during the night and operated in overtime, trying to create all kinds of hypotheses and scenarios from the information that the [Letter Office] provided to them. They wanted to capture the truth from the ocean of information and predict the future a little to provide the king with action plans that could be executed well. These loyal subjects were all trying their best to safeguard the kingdom in their own ways.
Even the ordinary Chambordians felt the gloominess of wars as if dark clouds were hanging above their heads.
While they were worried, they also felt lucky. If it weren't for their genius King Alexander who suddenly appeared in Chambord, the weak strength of the former Chambord Kingdom would be a joke in this chaotic world, and it would be more than likely that the kingdom had been conquered. The fates of these Chambordians would also be tragic, and they wouldn't be doing any better than the current refugees who got their homelands and families destroyed and had to wander around for survival.
A truly powerful lord could protect a piece of land and the people living in it, shielding them from the tragedy of wars.
What confused and scared Fei was that the Holy Church had revealed its explosive strength when dealing with the level 9 empires in the Central Region, but it showed nothing toward the Undead Creature Catastrophe that was still happening inside the Anji Empire. The priests always preached that they couldn't co-exist with evil, but they were cold toward this incident; it was very confusing. Although many fanatic believers were displeased by the Holy Church's action that was against the Holy Doctrine, the headquarters of the Holy Church on the Holy Mountain of Sicily Island didn't directly respond and kept silent.
Fei wasn't sure what the Holy Church was up to.
Although he was now the bishop of the [Black-Cloth Shrine], and he was technically a member of the Holy Church, he knew little to nothing about what was happening on the Holy Mountain at Sicily Island. In fact, Fei didn't feel like he was on the same boat as this mammoth of a force. From all his dealings, he felt like he was an enemy of the Holy Church.
"Could it be that the two sly foxes, Blatter and Platini, are waiting for a good opportunity to take down the undead creatures and me?" Fei felt a little uneasy.
At the same time, all the rumors about the appearance of other races on the continent also attracted Fei's attention.
The king had witnessed the awakening of the Sea Tribe with his own eyes, and the re-emergence of the Elf Clan was also within his expectations. However, the rumors about the Dwarf Clan, the Goblin Clan, and the Dragon Clan shocked him. Although many people believed that these were nothing but rumors and stories, when there was smoke, there was typically a fire. Fei sieved through the rumors and captured some truths.
In the Mythical Era, humans' relationships with other races weren't friendly. To be honest, they were hostile toward each other. If these other races re-emerged, what would be their attitude toward humans? Cooperation? Or war?
Fei felt a headache just thinking about it.
Right now, the Azeroth Continent was like a hornets' nest that got poked by someone. It was already messy and disordered on the inside, and no one knew when this nest would fall to the ground and smash into pieces. If that happened, all the forces would become violent and hot-headed.
After thinking for a long time, Fei decided to go and find one person.
Perhaps the king could get some useful information from him.
