In the core area of Dalton,

Leo led the group to the gleaming President's residence.

With a thought, a small tower radiating a soft glow appeared in his palm.

Time Tower!

As his own power continued to grow, Leo had discovered that the true potential of the divine artifacts he controlled was gradually being unlocked.

In other words, these artifacts had always been in a restrained state.

Because Leo's power had not yet been sufficient to unleash their full capabilities!

Without hesitation, Leo began to activate the power of the Time Tower.

In the next moment, a spatial tunnel filled with countless streams of light appeared beneath the President's residence.

At the other end of the tunnel, it connected directly to Dalton on the Alpha main continent.

"Father, are you planning to bring over Master Elarielle and the others?"

Lilith, standing beside him, asked, watching the scene unfold.

Leo nodded, his gaze distant.

"It's time."

...

In Dalton's mainland district,

Inside a mansion with a dark, somber style.

"Master! There's an urgent situation!"

A voice called out suddenly.

Walter, who had been playing with a pink starry jellyfish, froze.

Quickly stuffing the squishy creature into his arms, he hurriedly left the room.

"What happened?"

He looked at the Hat organization member kneeling outside the door and asked in a deep voice.

Being disturbed during his private time, he wasn't inclined to spare anyone without a truly important reason!

Sensing Walter's displeased tone, the member immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Master, the Time Tower has suddenly activated on its own!"

"I suspect this might be a signal from President!"

Walter's expression changed drastically.

A signal from President!

He dared not waste a moment and immediately disappeared.

Meanwhile, the entire Dalton began to feel the unusual energy fluctuations coming from the Time Tower.

Many of Dalton's high-ranking officials quickly made their way to the location of the temporal tower.

When Walter arrived, only a few people were gathered in front of the tower.

Looking at the stable, rotating light portal leading to the unknown, Walter's expression grew grave.

Clang!

Clang, clang—

At that moment, Aragis, clad in full armor, quickly approached.

"Walter, what's going on?"

He stood beside Walter, his voice serious.

It had been some time since Leo had left Dalton.

In the meantime, Dalton had remained stable, with no trouble in sight. They had been focusing on advancing, supported by the abundant resources.

Now, their strength far surpassed the average beings of the mainland, and they had become true transcendent beings.

Walter shook his head, not taking his eyes off the spatial tunnel.

"I just arrived, and the specifics are unclear."

"But I'm certain it has something to do with President. Let's wait and see what happens."

Aragis nodded in agreement.

Soon, the core members began to arrive one by one.

Magnar, Elarielle, Elizabeth, Reize, and others were all present.

As they gazed at the spatial tunnel, Elizabeth spoke first.

"That portal must be connected to the place where President is."

"How do you know?"

Someone asked, puzzled.

Elizabeth smiled faintly and recalled the past.

"It was President who used the Time Tower to open a spatial tunnel to bring me here."

The group immediately understood, and someone suggested,

"If that's the case, why wait? Let's go through and find out!"

The suggestion was unanimously approved.

Without hesitation, Aragis drew his sword first and stepped into the light portal, followed closely by Elizabeth.

Moments later, the top leaders of Dalton were left with only Reize and Walter standing in place.

"Reize, aren't you going in?"

Walter looked at Reize, who seemed hesitant, and asked with a smile.

The absence of Aragis, Elizabeth, and the others wouldn't make a significant impact on the city; Dalton was now strong enough.

Both the knight regiment and the starborn legions were self-sufficient, and didn't require their personal supervision.

But the two of them were different—one was the leader of Dalton's defenses, and the other was the head of the Hat organization. Together, they maintained Dalton's order and security, and both were indispensable.

If they left, chaos could easily break out in the city, and the consequences would be dire.

Reize shook his head, his tone steady.

"The defense and order of the city cannot be left unattended. We can't both leave."

Walter smiled and nodded in understanding.

"Then let's wait a moment. We'll quickly hand over our duties to our deputies and then go."

Around them, numerous powerful figures from the President's residence were closely watching the spatial tunnel, their eyes occasionally glancing at Reize and Walter.

While everyone was familiar with Reize, many of the high-ranking members were still unfamiliar with Walter.

Those with lower strength couldn't even make out his face, only seeing a blurred shadow.

...

At the other end of the spatial tunnel,

Buzz—

With a wave of space, several figures flew out of the light portal in quick succession.

Aragis and the others suddenly found themselves in a breathtakingly grand city, far more magnificent than they had remembered. The city was filled with exotic styles and a powerful magical aura!

Even though they were from Dalton, they were still shaken by the incomparable grandeur and majesty of the new Dalton Town.

Sensing the familiar energy within the city, the group immediately relaxed.

Aragis, Elarielle, and the others quickly walked up to Leo, respectfully bowing.

"Good day, President!"

Leo snapped out of his brief reverie, his gaze sweeping over his loyal subordinates.

"You've all worked hard these past days."

He carefully sensed their power.

Aragis had reached Sanctuary Radiance rank, officially entering the ranks of high-level powerhouses.

The others had also reached at least Sanctuary Fire rank.

This was already impressive progress.

Next, Leo only needed to spend a little time providing them with targeted training, and he was confident their strength would soon catch up to the current pace.

Meanwhile, Wendell and Albert, standing beside Leo, were also sizing up Aragis and the others.

Though their strength was far from the level of Leo and his companions, each of them had a solid foundation and deep potential.

More importantly, they were clearly Leo's absolute confidants!

It was only a matter of time before they would stand side by side with them in the future.

At that moment, Leo suddenly asked,

"Where are Reize and Walter?"

Everyone had arrived, but these two were missing.

Leo always placed great importance on these capable subordinates.

Upon hearing the question, Aragis, Elarielle, and the others paused, realizing that Reize and Walter were indeed absent.

"President, they... should still be in Dalton."

Elarielle stepped forward and explained.

"They have important responsibilities and many tasks to handle. They probably needed some time for coordination, so they couldn't leave immediately."

Leo thought for a moment, understanding.

These two were still as responsible as ever.

"Reize, Walter."

His voice directly pierced through the space, echoing in the ears of the two on the other side of the tunnel.

"President!"

The two immediately stood and turned toward the spatial tunnel, their faces filled with respect.

Leo's voice rang out again.

"Put aside the tasks there for now, come here first."

"Yes, President!"

Without hesitation, they both responded.

"Let's go."

The two stepped into the radiant spatial tunnel together.

As the bright light flashed before their eyes, the surrounding environment changed instantly.

However, before they could even take in the new city's energy, they were suddenly struck by a powerful sensation of weightlessness.

"By the gods!"

Bang! Bang!

The two were unceremoniously "spat out" by the spatial tunnel, landing hard in an undignified manner, face-first into the ground.

To their surprise, a pink starry jellyfish slid out from Walter's arms and landed at Reize's feet!
