Chapter 728 Velbor City in storm
From MC's perspective:
Velbor City,
In the Gregor Mansion, I'm witnessing a terrifying scene. The whole building is melting down. I thought I was a villain. But these evil organizations truly discard everything when it comes to achieving their goal.
But I can't be like them right now. Many forces wanted me to die. There will be a time in the future when I can act unscrupulous. When it happens, it doesn't matter whether it's a white wizard or a black wizard.
Everyone would tremble in fear when they heard my name. A quick glint flashes in my eyes. I feel powerless right now. Especially the screams of victims ringing in my ears.
This shows that I'm still a weak ant in front of a high-ranking wizard. The level-6 limit gives me a sense of protection in daily life. But it's not enough. One thing I have truly realized right now is that.
My enemy would be high-ranking wizards hereafter. They won't be sending any core wizards anymore.
Then my attention shifted back to the mirror. Where I saw in the blink of an eye, the black sea touched the ground floor.
A few minutes later,
lightsΝοvεl ƈοm Except for the pool of black liquid, there is nothing left on the ground. There is no sign of a hotel building or people whatsoever. Everyone was killed by the black liquid.
Swish!
Then I saw changes on the screen. The black liquid pool started to swirl. In the blink of an eye, a vortex was formed. The next moment, a wizard wearing a mask in black attire appeared.
Seeing that my pupil shrunk, I immediately recognized the person. He is the unknown level-7 wizard who was after my life. Last time, he had destroyed the hotel in search of me.
This time he directly cast the magic spell at the hotel without alerting me. My eyes turned cold.
"How does he know my whereabouts?"
"Is it Senior Gilbert?" I asked myself.
The next second, I shook my head in denial. I trust Senior Gilbert. He won't share the details without my permission.
"Something else must have happened?" I said in my heart.
This unknown wizard spotted me last time in that hotel. Maybe he had guessed my whereabouts.
A hint of regret flashes in my eyes. I underestimated the will of the level-7 wizard. He is not going to leave without killing me.
So I should be careful in my next plans. Looking at the destroyed hotel and number of deaths. I showed no emotion. I have long since understood the truth.
For wizards, the people below them don't matter. So it's a waste of time to pity them. Then I walked back to my room to take a rest.
As far as I know, the unknown level-7 wizard won't leave the place for the time being. I will check the mirror after some time.
Outside,
"Ha....Ha....Ha...."
"He is gone," The triple killer said with a laugh.
From the beginning to and end, he saw no one leaving the hotel building. When it comes to the target. He knows that Vincent Carey checked in the building not too long before.
So he was staying in the hotel room. Seeing that the mission was accomplished. He felt relieved. Then suddenly, he thought of something.
"Last time, the target used an artifact to escape. But this time, he had attacked directly. So he didn't know what happened to the target."
"If the target used an artifact to disappear for some time, then he won't stay like that for so long."
"Artifacts have a limit when the energy is gone, he will appear," He said in his heart.
The next second, he disappeared from the spot and decided to observe the place from far away. If the target appears, he will know.
If not then it would mean the target is dead for real.
Meanwhile,
The horrific scene left trauma in passersby. No one had seen the high-ranking wizards before. Especially high-ranking wizards using magic spells.
Everyone has seen it as a movie. But this time, the danger overwhelmed them. The spell power had collapsed them. But fortunately, the high-ranking wizards focused on removing the building.
So the aftermath didn't sweep over. Otherwise, everyone would have been dead by now.
5 minutes later,
The bloodline wizard arrives at the spot. Then he saw the large pit.
When he is standing in the mid-air to observe it. The residents nearby began fleeing.
They thought another high-ranking wizard would come to act. For this small city, they had never seen many high-ranking wizards staying in this place.
Mostly the high-ranking wizards pass through this city to reach another city or province. But they would never choose to stay in this small city. Because of the poor man in the surroundings.
It's not suitable for high-level wizards and above to stay here.
That's why people thought the high-level wizards were staying in this city for bad purposes. This is the thought of everyone's mind.
By that time, the adventurers' teams and media reporters arrived at the spot. Some of them saw a wizard standing in the mid-air.
They boldly took the photo.
At the same time, the bloodline wizard saw the scale of destruction. Nothing was left on the ground. He sucked a cold breath of air.
Even for him, he has to think twice before releasing the spell in public. The next second, a trace of confusion appeared in his eye.
"Who is he?"
"Why did he attack?' He asked himself.
Then he noticed the people were taking pictures of him. His expression turned ugly before disappearing from the spot. But he didn't know that the reporter had already taken a good image of him.
With this, a good intelligence unit can easily find his identity. The bloodline wizard didn't stick any longer, he returned to his room.
Out of curiosity, he went there to check. But he didn't want to expose his identity. It will trouble his master. He knitted his eyebrows.
Certainly, he saw someone had taken his picture. It can't be helped. If he had attacked, then everyone would list him with the attacker as well.
"I made an amateur mistake," He said in his heart.
If the image comes up tomorrow, then it will be a matter of time before everyone knows his identity.
"Damn it," He cursed out loud.
Meanwhile,
The media reporters start to gather news. Even the adventurer teams are inquiring about the witnesses. Especially the Elite Adventurer Team who are the members of the adventure union.
They have more legitimate reasons to inquire. Maybe the attacker was behind the scenes. They thought he might be the reason for trade disturbance causing losses to the adventure union.
But the witnesses are scared beyond their wits. Some of them didn't want to offend the wizards so they refused.
But they don't know that the attacker hasn't left the spot yet. He has been waiting to see whether the target will appear or not.
He also saw the appearance of the level-7 bloodline wizard a few minutes ago. But he was not surprised. At this point, he was aware that the bloodline wizard was after the target as well.
He had heard about their actions in Beluz City. Now they have come here. Fortunately, he was quick enough to utilize the opportunity.
On the other hand, the local government authorities have made multiple request calls for help. Everyone was terrified by the magic spell.n()0VElb1n
Time flies,
The news has started to spread across the city like wildfire. Wherever the news reaches, it causes a huge storm.
It's been decades since a wizard blatantly chased destruction in public. That too a high-ranking wizard. The information quickly reaches the surrounding forces as well.
Those who came after Vincent Carey were already having thoughts of retreat. They don't want to get caught in this storm.
If a high-ranking police wizard comes here to investigate, then they would be exposed.
Shortly after, several foreign wizards started leaving the city. Especially those who are still trying their luck in the wilderness. Many of these wizards come from banned or evil organizations.
If their identity gets exposed, it will only do bad to them.
The changes were quickly noticed by the elite adventurer union members. They have shared the news with higher-ups. But still, there is no reply from them.
Even the members have understood. Things involving high-ranking wizards are not easy to solve. There is some force standing behind the attacker.
The Adventure Union won't release any statement without investigating the background of the attacker. So the elite adventurers are helpless.
They have seen the panicked expression of the witnesses. Someone boldly used a high-ranking spell in broad daylight. Which broke several laws of this country. The group thinks that the attacker is from an evil organization.
So they don't want to stay near the site. Who knows when the attacker might appear?
Meanwhile,
The triple killer was feeling impatient as time passed.
He has sent the information back to his organization. He wants to receive confirmation from the Shadow Skull. If he gets a positive answer, then he can leave right away.
