The Monsoon District.
Many familiar faces had disappeared from this place, but there were also some new ones. The Dark Realm was a strange place, but it also meant that there were secrets hidden within. Some academic Magi were the kind of people who didn't care if it was dangerous or not for the sake of their research. Therefore, a large number of academies came here with the spirit of research.
Apart from the academies, there were also many wizards who came here for the Mystery items.
However, this time, although there were many Sorcerers, there were not many Apprentices. It was clear that the strange spots of light outside the Darkness Domain had alerted the major adept organizations.
There were those who came, and naturally there were those who left. Under this kind of back and forth, Fu Feng District looked the same as before. It wasn't cold and cheerless, but it wasn't lively either.
Douglas was now in a domed meeting room in the center of the district. More than thirty wizards from all over the world had gathered here.
"I'm sure you all know why I called you here, so I won't say much. Onna, you speak." Douglas gave up the central position, and a middle-aged woman wearing a traditional Star and Moon Sorcerer's robe walked up.
Unna was a very cold looking witch. She wore a pair of delicate golden single-sided chain glasses and had a pair of slanted wrinkles on both sides of her mouth. She looked very strict.
"Sir Radiance asked me to go to the Brilliance Plane and ask for help from the Starliege Church. However, I didn't go to the Brilliance Plane because I met Sir Prada as soon as I teleported to the Silver Hub. "
Stargazer Prada was a famous Wizard of Prophecy in the Brilliance Plane.
"He knew that we would go to the Brilliance Plane, so he waited for me at the Silver Hub. I asked him about the Dark Realm, and his answer was almost the same as Professor Anglo's. His attitude toward the Dark Realm was still pessimistic. "
Onna's words darkened the faces of most of the wizards in the room. The wizards from Sleepless City, in particular, looked gloomy. Prada's words confirmed Anglo's speculation. Sleepless City was about to be relocated.
Only the wizards from Edge of Night remained expressionless. However, upon closer inspection, one could see a hint of joy in their eyes.
Edge of Night and Sleepless City were both located in the Evernight Kingdom. They were both quasi-large organizations that were only one step away from becoming large organizations. Under such coincidental circumstances, the two adept organizations might not appear to be fighting each other on the surface, but they were secretly competing against each other.
For example, Sleepless City had a Perpetual Day City, and Edge of Night had a Perpetual Night Mountain. Even though it seemed a little petty, it was evident from this incident that the two organizations were not as harmonious as they appeared on the surface.
Now, after hearing Prada's words, Sleepless City would have to move out of this place. Even though it was just losing their base, it was still a huge blow to their foundation.
Even if Sleepless City moved to another part of the Evernight Kingdom, it would still be inferior to Edge of Night. Furthermore, after this incident, Sleepless City would never be able to join a major sorcerer organization.
Under such circumstances, the wizards from Edge of Night were already being polite by not laughing out loud.
However, their reaction was still eye-catching in the dark atmosphere. Qetesh, who was always straightforward, snorted and said, "Even if Sleepless City moves away, we can't stay in the Evernight Kingdom any longer. Who knows if the darkness will continue to spread, and if the light spots and monsters will escape? When that happens, the other organizations in the Evernight Kingdom will have to worry about us. "
Qetesh was obviously referring to Edge of Night.
However, no one refuted him, because Qetesh's words made sense.
At this time, Onna, who was standing in the center of the room, suddenly said, "I don't know if you remember, but not long ago, there was a message from the Brilliance Plane. They said that 'the southern region is shrouded in shadows, but there will always be a rising sun.' We haven't seen the rising sun yet, but the shadows have already started to spread. Today, the shadows are in Perpetual Day City, but tomorrow, they will reach the Mountain of Eternal Night. "
Onna continued Qetesh's words and rebutted the wizards from Edge of Night again.
In this meeting, the people of the Edge of Night did not kick up a fuss. Only "Evil Dragon" Harris snorted coldly and mumbled, "We're happy in our hearts. Some people are angry, but they show their anger on the surface. We're not fools."
Harris's words made the others chuckle.
Indeed, Qetesh and Onna's behavior was a bit too much. After all, the wizards from Edge of Night were only secretly happy, but they did not laugh out loud.
"Even if you laugh, it won't last long," Qetesh said coldly.
"Qetesh, let's get down to business. Don't waste everyone's time." Wizard Payne finally stood up with a gloomy face.
After Qetesh stopped talking, some wizards began to ask the people who were invaded by the light spots what to do. Did Prada mention this?
Onna nodded and said, "Mr. Prada said that we just need to wait. There will be a way. However, as for the specifics of the method, you all know the predictive nature of Prophets. He did not say anything. "
"Wait? Both of my apprentices have been affected. We need to come up with a plan. "A sorcerer stood up angrily.
Onna sneered and said, "What does it have to do with us? Sleepless City didn't ask you to come here. You came here uninvited. You'll have to bear the consequences. "
"So, according to you, a few of my apprentices were captured in Sleepless City. You should be responsible for their deaths, right?" A thin, white-haired, white-bearded old man in a white robe and white boots walked into the meeting room.
His appearance immediately caused the wizards in the meeting room to whisper among themselves.
Onna choked and lowered her head respectfully. "Mr. Wallace, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Of course I'm here. My apprentices are all talented researchers. I can't afford to lose any of them. Since you just said that those who came uninvited would be responsible for their own problems, then they would have to bear the consequences. So, should you be responsible for the people who were staying in Sleepless City and ended up in trouble? " The white-robed old man was none other than Wallace, the representative of academism in Brute Cavern. He might look kind and gentle, but no one in Brute Cavern could beat him when it came to making a scene.
On the surface, it seemed like he was here to seek justice for his apprentice, but in fact, that was only one of his goals. His main goal was to get some benefits from Sleepless City.
Wallace's words immediately changed the situation. Unna was originally very arrogant, but at this moment, she became somewhat timid. After all, the problem Wallace mentioned was the core of Sleepless City, and it was also the source of Wizard Pine's uneasiness for the past few days.
Too many people were trapped in Sleepless City this time. Not to mention the mortals, there were already quite a few Apprentices and Sorcerers. If one were to include those who were related to him, then there would be even more.
The most important thing was how to deal with this problem.
Of course, Sleepless City could just ignore the matter, but that would also mean that Sleepless City's reputation in the southern wizarding region would be ruined.
Unna couldn't answer. Payne sighed inwardly, got up from his seat, and walked towards Wallace. "There's no need to rush. According to the information we have here, not many people died inside. They should only be trapped. I reckon that Mr. Wallace's disciples should also be in the same situation. Therefore, the most important thing now is how to rescue them. As for the explanation, there will definitely be one. After they come out, we'll make a plan. How about it?"
His words were once again pushed back to the original topic.
Of course, Wallace knew that his good-for-nothing disciples were still alive, but was that important?
While they were talking among themselves, an apprentice suddenly rushed in and whispered something to Harris.
Harris' expression changed.
He quickly stood up and left the meeting room with the other members of Edge of Night.
"What's going on?" The Wizards present were confused. They didn't know what happened to Edge of Night. Why did they all leave?
Even Wallace and Pine stopped talking because of this.
It wasn't until the end of the meeting that a piece of news came from the apprentices of the Edge of Night. The essence blood of an adept that had entered the Darkness Domain had mutated. This meant that another adept had fallen in the Darkness Domain after Adept Di Nan.
However, this time, it wasn't a wizard from Sleepless City who died. It was a wizard from Edge of Night.
"Do you know which unlucky bastard it is?" Krate couldn't hide the smile on his face as he asked the messenger with a surprised expression.
Earlier, Qetesh said that Edge of Night's people would not be happy for long. He didn't expect his words to come true. How could he not be happy?
"I think it's Mister Gragg, the 'Imp'."
"How could it be him?" Everyone was surprised when they heard that Gragg was the one who died. Gragg wasn't the strongest wizard, but he was cunning and knew how to take advantage of the situation. Besides, he valued his own life the most. How could he die first?
"Where's his soul imprint? Is it gone? "
"I don't know. But judging from Edge of Night's attitude, it seems to be the case."
Even Qetesh fell silent. If Gragg's soul was gone, he would never be able to turn the tables again.
"Can Professor Anglo predict how he died?" Payne asked in a low voice.
"I don't know. They're still with Professor Anglo. Maybe we'll get the answer soon."
Payne thought for a moment and said to Douglas and Qetesh, "Let's go check it out."
When the three of them arrived at Anglo's hut, Harris was just walking out of the hut. Harris's expression was strange and puzzled at first, but when he saw the three of them, he snorted and left without looking back.
Anglo was recording some data on a piece of paper when they entered the hut. "Yes?" He asked without looking up.
"Is Gragg really dead, Professor Anglo?"
Anglo nodded and then shook his head. His expression was similar to Harris'. "Logically speaking, he should be dead by now. But Xian Yin told me that he still has a chance to live. So … it's hard to say. "
What kind of answer was that?
How could a dead man still have a chance to live?
Anglo's eyes suddenly lit up as he stood up. "Wizard Payne, I think we have an answer. My Wizard's Eye is telling me that Mister Phantom and his disciple have come out of the Dark Realm."
