"Sir Speaker, did something happen?" She was standing right in front of Lightchaser, so she was the first to see the speaker's side glance.
Oliveta's words caused the others to look at President Lightchaser.
Lightchaser smiled. "It's nothing. I just had a vague feeling that someone was watching me."
"Dark Noble" Adelaya followed Lightchaser's gaze. "Is it that way?"
"My intuition tells me that there shouldn't be anyone there," Lightchaser replied.
As for why he was looking in that direction, he didn't know either. He just subconsciously turned his head in that direction. Even he himself couldn't tell where the so-called "gaze" was.
After a pause, Lightchaser waved his hand. "Forget it. Maybe it's just my imagination. Don't worry too much about it. Also, I don't feel any malicious intent."
Imagination? Adelaya and Dichiel narrowed their eyes. They didn't object to this statement, but they didn't believe it. With Lightchaser's status, the probability of him having an illusion was very small.
That was why they didn't need to listen to the first half of Lightchaser's sentence. His focus was on the second half: I don't feel any malicious intent.
It seemed like he was trying to ease the tension, but it was actually a warning to the others.
— What was important wasn't whether the other party had any malicious intent, but that they couldn't have any.
To be able to make Lightchaser unable to sense the direction of the gaze, and even lose track of it, the other party might not be stronger than Lightchaser, but they definitely weren't weaker.
Such a powerhouse was very rare in the southern region. It could be counted on one's fingers, or even nonexistent.
If the hidden person really came from the outer regions, then they weren't limited to being below the legendary realm. It was very likely that they had already stepped into that realm. Therefore, in the face of an existence that was at least as strong as him and had a certain probability of being stronger, if he went to investigate with malicious intent and offended the other party, the gains would not make up for the losses.
That was why he used vague words to warn the others to stop investigating.
"We're here to record the information here, not to steal it. So, just do what you're supposed to do. Don't worry about anything else. "Lightchaser paused and looked at Dichiel." Dichiel, what do you think? "
Since Adelaia was a councilor of the Truth Council, she would listen to him even if he didn't say anything. However, Dicer was different. He represented the Night Whispering Forest's Yindu Night Whispering Journal. Although Dicer was with them this time, he was only borrowing the advantage of the Void Projection, and he had paid a corresponding price. They did not have a superior and subordinate relationship.
That was why Chairman Zhui Guang had asked Di Er alone.
Di Xier's eyes flashed. He wasn't stupid. He understood what Chairman Zhu Guang meant. These words seemed to be telling them to do their job well, but in fact, it was a declaration to the "outsiders": Don't worry about us, we won't participate in the fight for the mysterious item.
As for who this "bystander" was, there was no doubt that it was the person who had been watching President Lightchaser.
Someone that even Chairman Chaser had to take the initiative to express his stance was definitely not someone that Dicer could deal with.
"Of course, in accordance with the agreement signed with the major Wizard Alliances, we have to put aside our greed and give up the fight for the mysterious item."
After Dicher finished speaking, Levitta understood the hint and followed his words: "Our 'Firefly's Night Whispers' mainly records the fights between Magi over Mysteries. The internal strife and infighting is what our readers love to read the most. As for the analysis of the Mystery item, the significance of the Mystery item, and the subsequent evaluation, we can't do such professional work. We can only leave it to Mr. President. "
Hearing this reply, the chairman of Chaser Light smiled with satisfaction.
"In that case, let's act according to the agreement. Also, you are not members of the Truth Council, so you don't have to call me Chairman. Just call me by my name. "
That being said, neither Dichiel nor Oliveta dared to call him by his name.
"Sir Zhui Guang, do you know the origin of this mysterious item?" Dichiel asked respectfully.
Chairman Zhui Guang looked into the distance and observed for a long time before speaking. "That fruit should be a mysterious item. But strangely, although it has the energy of a mysterious item, it feels like it hasn't matured yet."
"Its effect is still unknown. But from the feedback of others, it seems to have an attraction that transcends the rules. "
"As for its origin, I can't see it clearly."
He then looked at Dichiel. "By the way, Dichiel, you know the information of the major organizations in the southern region like the back of your hand. Do you know that tree-like woman standing on the wave?"
Dichiel shook his head. "I've never seen her. But I've seen a few people with the same number on their faces. They seem to belong to a secret organization and have sacrificed living people. "
Chairman Zhui Guang asked, "Are they believers of an outer god?"
Dichiel shook his head again. "I don't think so. Their way of doing things is completely different from those believers of evil gods. They are more restrained and secretive. Moreover, there are no signs of evil gods participating in their sacrifices. It seems to be a ritual used for prayers. It's more like a primitive tribe. "
That was why Dichiel didn't give the information to the Supreme Cult even though he had obtained some information.
However, the members of these secret organizations still piqued his interest. He had sent people to investigate them a few years ago and even made a mock report. He was ready to report it when he caught something.
Unfortunately, they were too low-key and didn't participate in the affairs of the southern region. So far, he hadn't found any clues.
"I see." Chairman Zhui Guang muttered, "They're deliberately hiding from the wizarding world. There must be something fishy about this."
Unfortunately, he didn't have any further information.
However, Chairman Zhui Guang didn't care too much about it. The other competitors could think about the tree-like woman themselves. He was more concerned about the Mystery Fruit.
He couldn't tell much about this mysterious fruit at the moment, but for some reason, it made his heart palpitate.
It was an indescribable feeling. Looking at the Mystery Fruit, he seemed to have returned to two thousand years ago. He stood in front of a bottomless abyss in the Abyss World and looked down.
The throbbing in his heart and the unparalleled sense of danger filled his heart at the same time.
The Abyss was filled with powerful Great Demons and some Ancients whose names couldn't even be mentioned. They were existences that could threaten the survival of the Four Directions World.
But now, Chairman Zhui Guang felt the same way just by looking at the Mystery Fruit.
It must be known that the strength of the him from two thousand years ago and the current him were two completely different things. Furthermore, his true body was not here right now. This was just a phantom. If a phantom could feel such fear, then the feeling of his true body being here would probably be even worse.
What kind of Mystery Fruit was this?
While Chairman Zhui Guang was deep in thought, he suddenly heard Oliveta's voice. "Dark Baron? Dark Baron? "
"Chief Editor, Dark Baron isn't affected by the fruit, is he?"
Oliveta looked at Dichiel anxiously.
Dichiel snapped, "Shut up. We're just projections. You can use your toenails to think. How could we be affected by the fruit? As for Dark Baron, can't you see that she's deep in thought? Don't keep calling her. "
Oliveta turned to look at Adelaia. The latter's eyes were slightly absent-minded. Was she really deep in thought?
While Oliveta was still puzzled, Chairman Zhui Guang came to Adelaia's side and gently touched her.
Adelaia's expression was gloomy as she turned to Chairman Zhui Guang. "Chairman Zhui Guang, it's impolite to touch a woman's body."
"Also, you don't need to ask me if I'm affected by the fruit. I'm not deaf. I heard Oliveta's voice. Just like Dichiel said, I'm just thinking about something. "
Even in the face of her direct superior, Adelaia still did not show any respect.
Chairman Zhui Guang didn't mind. Adelaia's personality was just like that. She would treat anyone who violated her taboo or broke her rules this way. This was the path she chose.
"I just want to ask you, what do you think about the Mystery Fruit?" Chairman Zhui Guang looked at Adelaia.
"Nothing."
"I thought you found something after thinking for so long."
Adelaia replied, "I'm not thinking about the Mystery Fruit."
"Then what are you thinking about?" Chairman Zhui Guang asked curiously. Adelaia was thinking about something else at this time? Judging from his serious personality, this was quite rare.
Adelaia replied, "Nothing, it's just that after coming here, I … suddenly thought of an old friend."
"An old friend?" Oliveta's eyes lit up. Was this gossip?
Adelaia ignored Oliveta. She didn't want to gossip, nor did she want to be the target of gossip.
Zhui Guang Guang gave Adelaia a deep look. "Is it that old friend from Bodh Island?"
Adelaia looked up slightly before lowering her eyes. "The chairman's intuition is as sharp as ever."
"It's not intuition, it's the chairman's sincere concern for you. Can't you feel it?"
Adelaia said coldly, "Nonsense."
Zhui Guang Guang said, "Although Bodh Island is also on the ocean, it's extremely far from here. Why did you suddenly think of … an old friend? Or is that old friend so important to you that you can think of him just because you came to the ocean? "
Zhui Guang Guang Guang was already prepared to receive a retort. Adelaia usually didn't want to be ridiculed when it came to her personal matters.
But to his surprise, Adelaia didn't get angry. Instead, she began to think seriously. "I'm curious too. There's nothing to do with him here, but his image just popped up in my mind."
"Him?" Oliveta's eyes lit up even more. Even Dichelle perked up her ears.
"As a truth-finder wizard, you wouldn't think of someone for no reason. There must be a reason. Maybe he's nearby right now, and that's why you thought of him, "Zhui Guang Guang said.
"Nearby?" Adelaia looked at the large group of shadows behind her. "I don't know. But I can't see him anywhere."
"If he's not here, then there must be another reason. Maybe he's talking about you right now, and you're sensing him? "
Adelaia didn't know what to say.
…
Angor's expression was a little strange.
Therefore, he listened to every word they said.
It was also the first time he learned that Dichelle had already found some clues about the lab before them. She even found evidence of the ritual.
As expected of the chief editor of Firefly's Night Tale. She had a wide network of information sources.
Dichelle's information already surprised Angor, but what surprised him even more was the conversation between Adelaia and Zhui Guang.
Just now, Angor heard the name "Bird Island".
Bodde Island was a very ordinary island. However, there was an extraordinary clan on Bodde Island, the Purcell Clan.
This was a supernatural family that once had a truth-finder wizard.
The fire wizard Leavis, whom Angor met in the spirit garden, came from the Purcell Family.
Leavis' soul was now inside a Flower of Peace inside Angor's bracelet.
Tree Spirit once told him that Reeves and Dark Baron knew each other. However, Tree Spirit didn't know how and to what extent.
He didn't think too much about it. However, he didn't expect to run into Dark Baron here. Even though he wasn't here, and Reeves was still resting in his bracelet, Dark Baron still remembered his "old friend" from Bodh Island despite the many barriers between them.
This surprised Angor a lot.
The connection between Leavis and "Dark Baron" Adelaia was deeper than he thought.
What was the relationship between them? Were they really partners?
Why would someone as powerful as Adelaia fall in love with a young man who had no background and was much weaker than her?
Angor thought he might have found out the truth.
Maybe he should find a chance to hand Leavis over to Adelaia?
Forget it. He didn't know the time yet. But the tea party was coming soon. Maybe he could sneak Leavis to Adelaia during the party?
As Angor listened to the "gossip" in the distance with great interest, the sky gradually turned from dusk to night.
A new curtain of night rose.
While the stars were shining brightly, Angor heard a loud roar coming from the distance, which interrupted his thoughts.
Looking back, they saw that the black figures on the distant sea were all retreating. As these people moved away, a pitch-black and huge shadow appeared behind them.
The sound of the wind came.
As the shadow approached, its true appearance was revealed.
"A cloud whale!" Angor gasped in surprise. It was a cloud whale that all the wizards were running away from.
Angor was familiar with cloud whales. When he first came to the wizarding world, he rode a cloud whale all the way from Devil's Water to Fey Continent.
He knew how powerful the cloud whale was.
And now, a cloud whale was breaking through the waves and heading toward the center of the mist zone.
