From the MC's Perspective:
I ca to the border. There are wandering wizards, and custors are going to the wilderness through the gate. Most of them are in groups. Seeing them, my eyes flashed with curiosity.
This will be the first ti for to use this route. I rember the old enemy, the Transmutation Wizard, used this route to enter Verdant City back then.
Then I started walking towards them. There are more gates, each of them having queues for entry and exit. I stood behind the line for exit.
Ti passed.
One by one, people exited through the gate. When it was my turn, the guard asked for my I.D. Then I showed him my Digital I.D.
Seeing that I was from the Special Mage Departnt, his pupils shrank. He quickly recovered his expression and allowed to leave.
I saw through his thoughts. He seed to believe that I was on an undercover mission. I couldn't help but smile.
After following the people exiting, I finally set foot in the wilderness. This is the first ti for to leave the territory on foot.
Last ti, I traveled using the Black Airship. This ti it's going to be personal travel. I started moving forward.
Not long after, I couldn't help but frown. Those who exited along with disappeared into the wilderness. As if they were escaping from so kind of terror, a confusion appeared in my heart.
Then I thought of sothing important. I took the mask and wore it on my face.
I continued walking.
anwhile,
Aaron Perry arrives at Verdant City as well. He then imdiately uses his identity to enter the wilderness directly. It won't be long before he catches up to Vincent Carey.
If not for Lord Rhys, he would have used this opportunity to kill Vincent Carey directly. But Lord Rhys had given him strict orders. He was not allowed to kill Vincent Carey.
His task was to watch over him. If he tried to do sothing else, then he could subdue him using his power and bring him over to Lord Rhys.
Aaron even had the thought of attacking Vincent Carey directly and then bringing him later. His eyes flashed with a cruel glint thinking about it.
About 10 minutes later,
[Ding! Warning!]
[A hostile wizard is nearing the Host]
[Identity recognized: Aaron Perry]
The chanical voice sounded in my mind.
I felt goosebumps all over my body. My brain quickly sprinted to find a solution. I ca to the huge tree in front of . I crouched down to enter the overgrown bushes covering the tree.
Swoosh!
The next second, I vanished from the spot and appeared in Gregor Mansion. In the middle of the hall, I gasped for breath.
The system warning had sent shivers through . How co he was here? Did he see leaving the city? I smacked my face lightly.
I should have worn the mask earlier. If he had seen , then it's highly likely that he followed to kill .
After calming my heart, I was at ease. Then I entered the control room to see the mirror.
Outside,
"Hmm, there was no one here," Aaron Perry muttered while standing under the huge tree.
Just now, he spotted a figure entering this place. He thought he caught a glimpse of Vincent Carey. But no one was here.
"Was it my imagination?"
"Hmmm, I'm getting annoyed under this hot sunlight," he said to himself.
"I better go and find him. Then skin his flesh before handing him over to Lord Rhys. He must be waiting for us at the old town," Aaron said to himself with a grin.
But he didn't know soone else heard his words.
Swoosh!
He then disappeared from the spot and started moving ahead.
In Gregor Mansion, I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead. I heard all of his mumbling. So he did see . The system covers the mana breath. No one can sense unless soone sees directly; they can find my location.
Then I sat back in the chair and muttered, "So this was all a trap? He knows my plan, so he followed ."
Who is Lord Rhys?
Was he the one who sent the Black Token?
According to Aaron Perry, that person is waiting at the old town. Aaron even ntioned "us." There was no mistake; I was so close to falling into their trap.
The system has saved once again. What a cunning family the Perrys are! They even used a precious Space Wizard family token to lure out.
I should return to the camps and try to find out the identity of Lord Rhys. He should be a wizard invited by the Perry Family to capture .
After pushing down these thoughts, I looked at the control mirror again. I didn't know whether he had left. He should have gone further by now.
I should use this opportunity to leave right away. He can't sense my presence because of the system.
Swoosh!
I appeared outside. Without turning back, I used my flight ability to fly close to the ground surface towards the Verdant City border.
anwhile,
Aaron Perry felt a headache. He had been moving slowly ever since he left the border. The students saw Vincent Carey leaving through the border gate.
Normally, he should have stopped Vincent Carey by now. But he saw other wanderers who left Verdant City.
"Did he use any flying treasure?" Aaron asked himself.
Then he shook his head. Not everyone can afford a flying treasure unless they are rich. Unless Paul Lin gave him so tricks.
"Harumph," he gave a cold snort.
"Let's see where you're going. I'm going to catch you soon," Aaron said to himself.
Because he knew Vincent Carey was going towards the old town. As long as he followed the route, he could catch up to him.
15 minutes later,
I returned to the border gate. But my heart was still not at ease. I walked to the entry gate and saw the line. Seeing that line was huge.
I decided to use my identity to enter directly.
