Chapter 819 A treasure fragment?
From MC's perspective:
The next day,
Dark League Higher-ups received a quick response from the Supreme Wizard of the Meteor Country. Which leads to quick conveying of a meeting in a few hours.
Time passed,
Several dark wizards appeared at the black rock tower. Including several dark witches.
When the evil old man who was responsible for the communication appeared. The meeting officially started.
Everyone was seated in their naturally formed rock chairs. In the middle, the blue screen appears and starts protecting Vincent Carey's profile.
"So, did he respond?" The poison queen was the first one to open her mouth in the discussion.
Hearing that everyone else perked up their ears to listen. The evil old man whose body was covered in shadows decided to tell.
"Yes, he did respond. That too positively," He said with a smile.
Then he added, "He understood our plan. He also thinks that resources related to gravity magic could make the kid to step out of the academy. "
Hearing that a happy exclamation sounded. They never expected matter could end this easily.
Poison queen's eyes flickered. But she wasn't surprised. Because the whole Meteor Country is filled with meteor resources.
But the old man's next words made everyone's jaws drop.
"He has given me a fragment which contains a small percentage of gravity rule," After saying that he takes out a black box in front of everyone.
When he taps on the box. It became transparent. The inside content became visible to everyone.
A small pebble-sized marble piece can be seen inside. Anyone with discerning eyes can see that the fragment is shining. But it's dimmer to everyone's eyes.
Gasp!
A surprised-filled gasp sounded among the higher-ups. There are not many things that could surprise them.
Because they have seen so much in their wizard journey. But the Wizard Rule resources are still rare to find in this world.
It can be considered a strategic resource for many wizard forces in this world. The situation is even worse for other types of Wizards.
Apart from the Elemental, Bloodline, and Weapon Type. The other type of Wizards have to go through a struggle to find the necessary resources.
When it comes to Taboo and Sub-Taboo Wizard. The Wizard Rule Resources can be said to be the most important resource.
So the higher-ups are in a state of shock right now.
"He is willing to take this out. Won't the Meteor Government retaliate?" The poison queen said with envy.
Everyone has to go through fire to find such types of resources. Even some of the wizards from wealthy influences weren't able to come across Rule-based resources. Because of that, they have failed to break through.
The old man grinned before saying, "He said he was the government. On top of it, he is doing this for his country. "
Hearing that many of them felt mixed emotions. The Supreme Wizard of the Meteor Country is hard to predict. To kill a level-5 Sub-Taboo Wizard. He has given such expensive resources.
"Alright, now we have the perfect bait to lure. Next, we have to decide the place."
"A place should be suitable for our people to carry out their mission, He said.
Hearing that everyone began to ponder. The old man's eyes flickered. He is thinking as well. At his current age, he has more than hundreds of years of experience.
The people who are in this meeting are at least 500 years old. From each of their life's experience. They can easily find a place.
Not even a minute has passed. The old man already thought of a few places. These places are located near the border of the country. And far away from the Capital.
Even someone wants reinforcement. It could take a long time for them to reach the place.
On the other hand, the poison queen was active as well.
"What about Henrick Swamp?" She said in her heart. That place is a historic forbidden site of ancient dark mages.
The next second, she shook her head. All the places she can think of are related to her poison magic. But this mission requires a credible place so that they can use their bait to attract.
Not only her others are ruining the same as well.
Time passed,
The old man realized the current geography of their country was different. Most of the active places were not there centuries ago.
Similarly, many ancient battle sites were always salvaged and plundered by Wizard forces over the centuries.
Coincidentally, the old man's gaze fell on Vincent Carey's profile. Something immediately caught his attention.
"Gravity Ancestor's successor," He muttered to himself.
He knows that such a great figure exists in history.
Suddenly, a good idea comes to his mind.
"Alright, I have thought of something."
"Do you see here? This kid was the successor of the Ancient Gravity Wizard of the Yellow River Academy," The old man said while pointing his finger at the screen.
"If we can find the places visited by this ancient mage, then we can use one of the places as bait."
"Naturally, if the news was leaked. Everyone will think it was a treasure left by him," The old man said.
Many widened their eyes in surprise. Because this plan sounds more credible than finding a random place to use for their plan.
Poison Queen thought the idea was good. So starts using her brain.
"Adamont Canyon," Someone uttered in the group.
Hearing that old man's eyes flickered before he recalled something.
The next second, the blue screen flashes before showing the information about this place.
The Adamont Canyon is located in a semi-arid region of our country. The adamant canyon is a slot canyon formed by natural rocks. The place is wide, stretching over a hundred miles.
This place has a lot of history. During ancient wartime, this place was used as a hideout. Even during dark izards' extermination times, this place provided shelter to some of them.
There are records that some of them used to live in this place. It's even recorded that the Ancient Gravity Wizard had his base here for some time.
In modern times, the place is now under the control of the rogue wizards. Because this place is uninhabitable for regular humans.
Naturally, it was occupied by rogue wizards these days. Most of them are criminals wanted by several states in this country.
After reading the description, the place has become silent. It's indeed a good place for them to carry out their plan.
But this place has been a haven for dark wizards like them. If any mishap happens, the Yellow River Academy could erase this place.
Sighs!
The old man sighed inwardly. He knows this is a historical site.
"Alright, we can see if there are any other places suitable. Then we will finalize tomorrow," the old man said in a normal tone.
This canyon still helps its members to hide. No high-ranking wizards casually visit this place. That's why he is having second thoughts.
...
From MC's perspective:
Library,
"Adamont Canyon," I muttered to myself. Looking at this travel picture, I feel more intrigued. This one place records so much history.
So much so that it's hard to separate the truth from the rumors. Then I began to go through more details.
A few minutes later,
A hint of disappointment flashes in my eyes. Such a historical place is not a place to live. Now it has become a den for criminals.
"So the late gravity ancestor had visited this place must be a rumor," I said in my heart. Because there is nothing in this place.
Even the forbidden ruins and ancient battlefield sites have something to offer. But here you won't get anything other than wicked wizards.
After pushing down these thoughts, I closed this travel book before picking up another one.
Time passed,
When it's the time of dusk. I left the library. But I wasn't able to remove last night's incident from my mind.
That's why I decided to return to my room early.
Soon, I walked out of the castle building. Then I started walking faster. Fortunately, there was no unusual feeling this time
While walking, I couldn't help but think of Senior Gilbert. He didn't call me today. I thought he would give me an answer for yesterday's incident.
But now that I look back. It's not as simple as it seems.
When I returned to my room. I quickly went to take a shower.
20 minutes later,
I changed into comfortable clothes. Then I lay down on my bed. I know while I was spending time in the library. The duels for a level-6 Wizards took place.
Then I began to look for the duel videos in my communication watch. I want to check whether any of them have used the Rule Power.
Meanwhile,
Galvin is meeting Gilbert at his place.
"What happened?"
"Is he fine now?" He asked.
Gilbert nodded before answering, "Elder, Vincent returned to his room just now. It appears he is okay, nothing wrong with him today."
Galvin's eyes flickered. He thought the dean had solved the problem.
