Abel didn't continue to check on Frost City. He knew that the blizzard clan wouldn't be able to cause him any trouble in the near future, so he had enough time to train.
He was thinking about one thing. Should he return to the lightning clan? He felt like he belonged there, and all the advanced wizards there were very friendly to him. Although he hadn't spent much time with his team members, they were already like brothers.
Abel was worried that Wizard Malon was only interested in Johnson's mining ability. He was worried that Wizard Malon would capture him and force him to hand Johnson over.
Now that Wizard Malon was here, there was a chance that other law-defying wizards would show up as well. He couldn't even take on a rank 20 wizard, let alone a law-defying wizard. Although he'd gotten a lot stronger, the only thing he could do was to make sure that he could escape.
The Lightning Clan was indeed powerful, but Han Sen couldn't stay in the Land of Thunder Fall forever. He regretted exposing Johnson's ability. He didn't expect anyone to recognize Johnson as the Stone Giant and know his ability.
The best thing he could do right now was to hand Johnson over to the lightning clan and let them publicly announce that Johnson was in their hands. That way, he wouldn't be in any danger.
But that was a difficult thing to do, and he didn't want to hand Johnson over. There were too many secrets on Johnson, such as the "extra speed" and the "mana burn" ability. If those law-defying wizards saw it, there would be too many surprises.
Johnson's mining ability alone was enough to make a law-defying wizard go crazy. He couldn't imagine what would happen if Johnson had more abilities.
After thinking about it, he put his wizard badge into the Hradik Cube. That was the only place where his wizard badge could be completely isolated. He didn't want to use the identity of Wizard Abel anymore.
He thought it through. Why did he have to use this identity that was already being watched? He could totally change his identity.
He was already a rank 18 wizard. Even if he were to return to the lightning clan, the other wizards would still be suspicious. Even if there were no elite wizards in the lightning clan who would be jealous, there were still other wizard organizations and law-defying wizards. As long as the benefits were big enough, the Wizard Union wouldn't be able to control him.
On Bai Yun's back, Abel turned into his elf form again. This was the form he was most familiar with. He had been with the elves for a long time, so he could almost completely integrate into their lives.
On top of that, he also practiced Druil, and his identity as a master alchemist would give him better resources.
In his mind, he said to the Lightning Clan and his friends in the Third Squad, "Goodbye!"
He wasn't going to return to the lightning clan until he was strong enough. At least, he wouldn't use the identity of Wizard Abel again.
…
Since Wizard Abel was captured, Wizard Hal of the lightning clan, a powerful wizard who just became a law-defying wizard, requested the Wizard Union to investigate Abel's capture.
This was the biggest slap in the Lightning Clan's face in the past few hundred years. A prodigy wizard that the Lightning Clan wanted to nurture as a seed was taken away by a law-defying wizard in front of all the elite wizards in the team.
This was definitely a challenge to the lightning clan. It was a disrespect to all the law-defying wizards in the lightning clan. They had to fight back.
Therefore, Wizard Hal came to the headquarter of the Wizard Union and requested an immediate investigation.
As a matter of fact, Wizard Hal had already guessed who the law-defying wizard was. He came to the Wizard Union to speed up the investigation. He couldn't just go to Frost City as a law-defying wizard. That would bring trouble to the lightning clan.
He wasn't like Wizard Malon, who was ready to abandon the Blizzard clan at any time. He had to consider the influence of the lightning clan in the Wizard Union.
Other than Wizard Hal, there were six other law-defying wizards sitting in the ancient palace. The forces behind these law-defying wizards were even more powerful than the lightning clan. The six law-defying wizards and Wizard Hal, the representative of the lightning clan, represented the seven most powerful wizard organizations in the Central Continent Wizard Union.
Of course, although the lightning clan had fewer law-defying wizards, they weren't weak. On the other hand, the lightning clan's law-defying wizards were very powerful themselves. Even though they didn't have as many advanced wizards and law-defying wizards as those big organizations, their status was still very much the same.
"Wizard Clemens, I've been waiting for an hour. How much longer do you want me to wait?" Wizard Hal didn't seem to be in a good mood. He didn't let the six law-defying wizards leave the room since he came here. He needed at least half of the law-defying wizards to agree before he could do anything.
"Wizard Hal, you should go back to the Land of Lightning Fall and wait for the results. You just leveled up and need some time to stabilize. We'll let you know as soon as the results are out!" Wizard Clemens said helplessly.
He knew what happened today was very troublesome, and he hated the law-defying wizard who did this. Breaking the rules like this would eventually lead to a fight between law-defying wizards.
He didn't want to see a fight like this. It was the kind of fight that the wizard union didn't want to see.
The strength of law-defying wizards meant that the Wizard Union would need at least two or three law-defying wizards to deal with one.
Wizard Hal lowered his voice, "Wizard Clemens, I've already pointed out the suspect. You're not going to tell me that you haven't found anything yet, are you?"
Wizard Clemens explained, "The Wizard Malon you suspect is very low-key. He doesn't have any friends. He doesn't even participate in the activities of law-defying wizards. Maybe there's something wrong with his life-prolonging method, so it'll take some time to investigate him!"
Wizard Hume from the resource department smiled and said to Wizard Hal, "Wizard Hal, you can't just wait here. Why don't you go take a rest first?"
Wizard Hal tapped on the table and lowered his voice, "Wizards, let me remind you that the grudge between Wizard Abel and the Blizzards has been settled by the Wizard Union in a fair and just manner. If the Wizard Union doesn't take care of this immediately, the lightning clan will take care of it ourselves. You need to know that the longer you delay, the more danger Wizard Abel will be in!"
Wizard Hal already knew that Abel was dead. If he was caught by a law-defying wizard, the chances of him surviving were almost zero.
Also, he just leveled up and was in retreat, so he got the news three days late. He just wanted to find the evidence as soon as possible and make the law-defying wizard pay for what he did.
"Wait, there's some news!" Wizard Clemens was in charge of the investigation department of the Wizard Union, so he got the latest news from his wizard badge.
Wizard Hal lowered his voice, "I hope it's good news, Wizard Clemens."
Wizard Clemens said apologetically, "I have the records of all teleportation circles to the tenth mission point here. Wizard Malon, as you suspect, did not use any of them. My investigation department also did not have any reports of Wizard Malon appearing in the vicinity. I'm sorry, but I can't confirm that Wizard Malon is suspicious."
Wizard Clemens knew that if a law-defying wizard wanted to hide, his investigation department wouldn't be able to find out. However, without evidence, he couldn't issue a warrant for a law-defying wizard.
As long as there was no evidence, the Wizard Union couldn't do anything about it.
Wizard Hal's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment, "It seems like I'll have to talk to Wizard Malon myself."
Wizard Clemens reminded, "Wizard Hal, I still hope that if you talk to Wizard Malon, there won't be any conflict."
Wizard Hal spoke, "Wizard Malon has made a bad start. The lightning clan will repay him in the same way." Wizard Hal was sure that Wizard Malon was behind this, and the Wizard Union couldn't help him. The lightning clan had to act on their own.
Wizard Clemens warned again, "Please calm down, Wizard Hal. The Wizard Union won't let law-defying wizards cross the line."
Wizard Hal laughed, "Of course, as long as the Wizard Union doesn't have evidence, I'll know."
Other than Wizard Hal, the other six law-defying wizards couldn't help but look at each other. This was going to be very troublesome.
They knew that Wizard Abel was captured, and Wizard Malon was the most likely culprit. This law-defying wizard had crossed the line of the Wizard Union, but without evidence, they couldn't do anything to him in a short period of time.
Normally, the Wizard Union would send out a large number of experienced investigators to conduct an in-depth investigation of this kind of situation.
At the same time, they would list Wizard Malon as one of their key targets. His every move would be watched more closely.
However, this was not enough to quell the anger of the lightning clan. All the law-defying wizards on the spot knew that there were at least two law-defying wizards left. If three of them were to attack, Wizard Malon would be severely injured or killed on the spot.
This would definitely cause chaos in the Wizard Union. It would challenge the authority of the Wizard Union.
"Wizard Hal, can you wait a few more days before making a move? Give me ten days, and I'll give you an explanation. " Wizard Clemens wanted to drag this out a bit, so he decided to talk to Wizard Malon himself. This was much better than a war between the Blizzards and Lightnings.
Law-defying wizards were the most precious resource. Every law-defying wizard was a valuable asset to the Wizard Union. Not only did the Wizard Union have to deal with the Evil Kingdom, but they also had to suppress other powerful professions. All of this required the power of law-defying wizards.
Wizard Clement's wizard badge began to vibrate again, and a new message was sent to him. Wizard Clement's wizard badge began to vibrate again.
Wizard Clemens knew that the message that appeared on his wizard badge must be very important. With his status, normal messages didn't need to be reported to him.
His power of the will entered the wizard badge. Soon, his mouth was wide open, and there was no way he could maintain his image.
"Wizard Clemens, what happened?" Wizard Hume asked.
"Wizard Hal, did the lightning clan make a move against the Blizzard clan?" Wizard Clemens asked in a serious tone.
"Wizard Clemens, you know how I am. If I made a move, would I still come to the Wizard Union?" Wizard Hal lowered his voice.
"The Blizzards are done for. Frost City was flattened by some unknown explosive. At least forty-five advanced wizards from the Blizzards were killed. Almost all of the beginner wizards did not make it out alive. They all disappeared in the explosion!" Wizard Clemens gazed at Wizard Hal. He knew the lightning clan wouldn't do something like this, so he told Wizard Hal what he knew.
"Wizard Clemens, are you sure it was an explosion?" Wizard Hal's eyes began to sparkle.
"That's right, didn't Wizard Abel attack Frost City with those unknown explosives?" Wizard Clemens was reminded of what Abel had done in the past, so he couldn't help but ask.
"So it was Wizard Malon. There's no need to investigate. I'll go find him now!" Wizard Hal immediately realized that Abel was still alive. At the same time, he was sure that Abel was taken away by Wizard Malon. Otherwise, why would Abel blow up Frost City?
"Wizard Hal, we can't find Wizard Malon!" Wizard Clemens said with a strange look on his face.
"Wizard Clemens, what do you mean?" Wizard Hal didn't understand.
"Frost City was blown up, and Wizard Malon didn't appear. Maybe he's not in Frost City, or …" Wizard Clemens didn't continue. He didn't believe what he was about to say.
It was impossible for law-defying wizards to die so easily. At least in the past 100 years, no law-defying wizards had been killed. Unless there was a war with the Evil Kingdom, the survival rate of law-defying wizards was extremely high.
Wizard Hal understood what Wizard Clemens meant. If Abel was the one who did it, then it meant that Abel was captured by Wizard Malon. Both the Wizard Union and the lightning clan wouldn't let him go. There was no way he would come back to Frost City.
