Chapter 826 The Crippled old man appeared again
From MC's perspective:
Adamont Canyon,
Inside the Gregor Mansion, I opened the treasure box.
Wooosh!
The next moment, a white misty energy stuck me from the box. My mana core starts greedily observing the energy.
In the blink of an eye, the white misty energy recedes.
[Ding! Gravity Resource detected]
[Ding! A bit of Gravity Law is traced]
A mechanical voice sounded in my mind. But in front of me, my eyes never left the sight of a small glass piece.
There are mysterious runic patterns on it.
[Ding! the host is advised to use the resource before the law trace vanishes]
The system notified me again. The next second, my thoughts returned to reality.
I picked the glass fragment before the string cross-legged on the ground. I don't want to waste any time.
Keeping it tightly in my palm, I started to run the mental method. I don't know how it works. So I decided to use a mental method to get some response.
The small mysterious energies are entering my body. After circulation, the energies are absorbed by the mana core.
The Mana core of mine was not ordinary. The mana core space exhibits a sacred atmosphere. There are golden runes all over the mana space.
But they are not visible. I have to focus on observing them. But this time the golden runes are getting strengthened because of these energies.
It's a class above mana found in the environment. Because of my lack of knowledge. I don't know what it is. But I continue to focus on it.
As the time passed, Unknowingly, I immersed myself. My consciousness feels close to the Gravity Law. Then I tried to grasp the feeling to understand the Gravity Law Power.
Outside,
A few minutes ago,
"Where is he?" Elder Galvin asked himself. Right now, he is standing above the explosion site. He is scanning the area with his mental power.
The place looked beyond identification. As the ancient bedrock has become rubble. The passage was destroyed.
It was not a problem for Galvin to clear them out. It's just he is not getting any clue about Vincent.
Meanwhile,
The evil wizard groups are rushing to the edge of Adamant Canyon. The Canyon spans over a hundred miles. For a level-8 Wizard like him, he can easily cross by tearing the space.
But he doesn't want to alert other high-ranking wizards.
That's why the whole team is flying low.
On the way, the Evil Wizard Ethan was not at all relaxed. For him, the mission was not over until they reached their hideout.
There are many chances for them to be intercepted by the righteous wizards.
"That Galvin has asked for support. There could be wizards waiting at the border," He said in his heart. He is not stupid.
He doesn't want to fly right into the trap.
"Let's get down below," Ethan said to others.
Hearing that the level-7 Wizards nodded their heads before descending on the ground. They too understood that they were not safe yet.
They have accomplished the major task. But still, they have to be alive to enjoy the benefits.
After landing on the ground, the group used several magic potions to erase their trace. For the next few days or weeks, I decided to hide in this place.
"We have to find a suitable underground passage to hide. There is a high chance that many wizards could swarm this place," Ethan said in his heart.
While searching, he also reported back to the HQ of the Dark League.
At the same time, Elder Galvin lost hope. He thought that the explosion killed Vincent Carey. There is no point in searching more.
"What have I done?"
"I should have brought some reinforcements with me, "He gritted his teeth in anger.
Because of his mistake, the academy and the Sub-Taboo Hall have lost a peerless wizard seed. Galvin sighed to himself. He is ready to take whatever punishment.
"Why are you alone?"
Boom!
The next second, a booming sound reverberated throughout the area.
Hearing that Elder Galvin's face discolored. He couldn't be more familiar with the voice. Because the owner of the voice is one of the main powerhouses of the Sub-Taboo Hall.
"He is here," Galvin's body starts to tremble. He didn't even dare to confide in the dean. Forget about their PowerHouse.
Last time, the Powerhouse stepped out of the academy to protect Vincent. In that process, he killed the unknown level-7 wizard.
But right now, he has stepped out for the 2nd time as well. Galvin couldn't believe his own eyes. He thought that was a one-off.
The crippled old man restrained his aura before appearing before Galvin in an instant.
"Hey, kid. Why are you alone here?" The old man asked. He knows Galvin. There are few members in the whole Sub-Taboo Hall.
He knows all the information about them.
Elder Galvin swallowed his saliva in fear. This is the first time he is seeing the PowerHouse in real life. Before he had received indirect orders and missions.
"Lord...?" Galvin started to stutter.
PowerHouse are addressed as Lords in this country. Different countries have different ways of addressing this. The old man is standing in front of him.
He can feel that space itself is bending around him. If he stays here for a longer time, it could damage the space stability around this area.
Which could turn the Adamont Canyon into ruin for real. That's why powerhouse existence lives in its special environment.
At the same time, the crippled old man was not silent. He picked up several mana blueprints here.
"2 Level-8 Wizards!"
"5 Level-7 Wizards," The old man secretly thought in his heart.
He quickly realized they had suffered an ambush.
The crippled old man then picks up Gravity Mana traces. It can be found in the environment because of the spell.
Swoosh!
The next second, he appears above the explosion site.
The old man squinted his eyes. Hereafter, he found there were no mana traces. The Gravity Mana trace stopped right here.
The old man was not worried. Because he knows Vincent is alive. If something had happened, he would have recovered the signal from the inheritance palace.
Back then when Vincent Carey accepted the inheritance. His body, mind, and soul imprints were there.
If Vincent had been killed, then the imprints would have disappeared.
So he knows Vincent is safe right now. But the old man was intrigued by the mystery.
"How could a level-5 wizard disappear into thin air?" He said in his heart.
He realizes there is something else in play here.
"Uh?" His eyes lit up with light. As he senses something special in the air. The old man's eyes change. A small runic pattern appears in both of his eyes.
The next second, he saw special gravity mana particles floating before his eyes. They are milky gray.
The magic runes in his further enlarges before he finds what's so different about the special gravity mana.
"It comes from Gravity Law," He was surprised in his heart.
Then he further spends time to find the real reason.
On the other hand, Galvin stood in the same spot like a statue. He thought that the Lord would make him disappear.
To his surprise, he saw the Lord was investigating something.
"Did I miss something?" He said to himself.
The crippled old man then analyzes the future before concluding.
"So he found treasure here. Could it be a key to a secret ruin?" The old man said in his heart.
Now the old man starts to believe the old rumors that the late Gravity Ancestor used to hear. Otherwise, it doesn't explain gravity law traces and Vincent's sudden disappearance here.
The next second, the old man returns to his usual self, and the mysterious runes in his eyes disappear.
"It's uncertain when he will return. It's better to send reinforcement here to guard this place," The old man made the decision.
The next second, he rose from the ground. The space gap opened in the sky. The old man then stepped inside the gap and completely disappeared from the spot.
The next second, the sky returned to normal.
From the start to the end, Galvin stayed in the same place.
"What happened now?" He asked himself.
He has realized something must have happened. Which he is not aware of. In other words, Vincent Carey could be alive.
Otherwise, he would have been dead right now. Realizing the key point, he wiped out the cold sweat from his forehead.
Beep!
The next second, he received a call from the dean.
Seeing that he felt nervous again. But he recovered his expression before attending the call.
"Galvin, you should guard the explosion site from now on. Don't let others come," the virtual image of the dean said.
Hearing that Galvin found the trace of hope before asking, "Dean, is he alive?"
"Looks like Vincent got a chance. He must have entered the special place. But we don't know anything about it."
"So it's unclear when Vincent will appear. So you should wait for him there. The 2 Elite Wizards teams are on their way to support you," The virtual image of the dean said before disappearing.
