This statement shocked the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground, and the scholars began whispering to each other.

Horus fell into contemplation.

The King looked at Rod, the flames flickering in his golden eyes.

Liszt scratched his little bald head and asked in surprise, "How did you come up with all this?"

Rod smiled and said, "Commander, this is the Eternal Sanctuary that Adam Yareel realized."

Liszt clearly remembered the writings of the martyr beneath his skull, but had never thought in this direction:

"What do you mean?"

"If a region is enclosed by the Black Fog Great Wall, wouldn't it become an Eternal Sanctuary free from monster attacks?"

Liszt's eyes widened suddenly:

"Is this feasible?"

Rod shook his head, "No, the book says... cough, I mean I read in the book that if monsters disturbed can't approach the source of disturbance for a long time, they become increasingly manic, and upon reaching a certain tipping point, they will forcibly cross the Black Fog Great Wall."

"The disturbance of fire cannot be isolated, the spread of black mist unstoppable, without fire one cannot survive, and the presence of fire inevitably leads to monster attacks, which makes the Eternal Sanctuary an impossible paradox."

Liszt suddenly became extremely disappointed.

"Damn it, is there no hope in this world?"

Rod calmly said, "Hope is us."

A scholar shouted, "The Surviving Sect's talk is indeed nonsense."

Rod smiled and said, "Although the Eternal Sanctuary cannot be completed, we can greatly alleviate our defense pressure through the Black Fog Great Wall, replacing the long defensive line with it."

"Exactly!"

Horus suddenly said.

"This is an excellent defense method, we can build several extremely strong defense fortresses, placing the most powerful Guardian Fire inside, outfitting the fortresses with Spiritual Energy cannons, concentrating our strongest combat power to annihilate the gathered monsters."

Amides said, "In this way, all disadvantages brought by the long defense line will be eliminated, and our defense pressure will be greatly reduced, the destruction caused by last year's black tide will not reoccur."

He walked over to the map, sliding his finger outward.

"In this case, our originally planned expansion can extend significantly outward, even encompassing Great Dragon City."

A chorus of exclamations erupted from the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Great Dragon City is an ancient city far from Troli.

If they can take Great Dragon City, Troli's territory would expand by more than ten times its current size,

and it would be safer than before, with no more monsters penetrating the defensive circle and entering Troli.

The crowd suddenly realized that if the border reached Great Dragon City, they would also gain the protection of the mountains.

Troli suddenly possessed a huge geographical advantage, surrounded by mountains.

Looking at the map, a sense of inexplicable security arose within everyone.

"However."

Amides continued,

"This is also a huge gamble, if the gateway is breached, we will face a disaster much more severe than before, if an accident occurs at the Star Marrow Altar, we'll similarly expose our soft belly to the Dark World."

Rod said, "I can guarantee that no accident will occur at the Star Marrow Altar, it is a creation into which the seven Ancient Gods poured tremendous effort, a divine artifact akin to the White Tower, as long as the supply of spirituality is ensured, the Spirit's Curtain will never fall."

Amides nodded slightly,

"The Spirit's Curtain is a quite mature spiritual power technology, we can also manufacture it, just not with such high positioning."

Horus suddenly asked, "Have monsters crossed the Black Fog Wall of the ancient city?"

Liszt recalled, "Except for some special monsters, I don't seem to have seen any crossing through the black fog."

Rod added, "The concentration of the Black Fog Great Wall is higher."

At this point, the crowd was starting to believe that the Black Fog Great Wall could indeed isolate monsters.

The current focus was whether the gateway could withstand such pressure.

The King had Rod explain the "Black Fog Great Wall" from beginning to end once more, highlighting key points.

The crowd continually raised doubts, and Rod continually answered them.

Fortunately, he had already discussed in detail with the Book of Knowledge on the way here, otherwise, it would have been overwhelming.

Among this, Amides proposed another important point, monsters can be born within the black fog, and the condensation of the Black Fog in the Great Wall to the "two derived" stage will undoubtedly give rise to powerful creatures, how to handle those born within the wall?

Rod's answer was to build watchtowers along the rear of the Great Wall, forming patrol combat groups to clear them periodically from outside, with a degree of vigilance equivalent to Troli's Safe Zone Red Soil Plain.

It could also serve as real combat training, with low-rank combatants participating here.

Finally, only one issue remained — whether to focus the defense on one or two fortresses.

This was a huge change in Troli's overall defense strategy, and once resolved, it would determine the course of future history!

A single misstep could spell life or death for the entire group.

Everyone's eyes focused on the King.

Apart from him, no one was qualified to make this decision.

The King's face burned in the firelight, he gazed at the raging Holy Fire with his golden eyes, calmly speaking.

"I have decided to change Troli's defense mode and use the Black Fog Great Wall to replace the lengthy defensive line."

After a brief silence, cheers once again resounded through the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground.

Of course, this was just a principled proposal.

The specific plan still needed detailed discussion by the Military War Department, with no detail overlooked.

Testing of the Star Marrow Altar must not have any oversights.

This plan was named "Eternal Plan" by the King, borrowing the meaning of the Eternal Sanctuary, hoping this meticulously crafted defense could help Troli survive the terrifying catastrophic disaster.

The discussion about the Star Marrow Altar ended here.

Its use premise still required Troli to complete the expansion.

As of now, the battle situation was not particularly ideal.

When Iyeta succeeded her teacher's position and became the Master of White Tower, several disasters were foreseen in succession, and the star phases became unstable, with bad weather frequently appearing more than before.

Yet, the Royal City's combat strength had also made significant strides, even though material scarcity remained the most pressing issue for the Royal City.

The supplies Rod brought back temporarily alleviated this problem, but could not solve it fundamentally.

By the standards of the Fire Epoch, the material they lacked was astronomical.

Many had thought more than once, if there were other Fire King Cities in the Dark World, and if help could be obtained from them, all these problems might be easily resolved?

Finding a new Fire King City was the greatest help in facing disaster.

After the "Eternal Plan" was determined, everyone began discussing this issue they cared about the most.

Liszt brought out that banner and handed it to the three great scholars.

"Based on our understanding, Saint Reel is one of the five surviving Fire King Cities from the Dark Epoch, their church is called the White Sect, this is their banner, Adam Yareel was a member named Aurora Group within the White Sect Church."

"It was the Black Fog Wall that isolated us, and because of this, for the past 1800 years, neither of us discovered each other."

"Now the Black Fog Wall has closed, and I believe, if we continue to move forward, we'll surely find fellow survivors in this Dark World."

"The strength of humanity lies in unity, and I believe if Troli and Saint Reel can unite, no disaster can defeat us."
