"Boss, he said he'll only co back after catching the person?"
Even the person next to him could obviously hear the underlying aning in this answer, becoming cautious in his tone, fearing to further displease Ronald.
— The current situation.
— Master Mage Shui is unlikely to return to [Lachmont] anyti soon.
He hasn't been gone long.
Even on this mission, he is tasked with tracking down an infiltrator, a task that is extrely challenging and ti-consuming.
For people living in this era, this is naturally not a problem.
But for Ronald, who urgently needs to find the original manuscript and deal with the issue of the ancient relic, this is an absolute disaster.
He and Il had experinted before.
Once their positions exceeded a certain range, they would automatically return to [Lachmont], so leaving the island to search for Shui on land was fundantally impossible.
"... "
At this mont, Ronald's expression was quite unpleasant.
However, he still reminded himself to calmly face reality, so he continued to ask the caster in front of him:
"What are your views on the tiline for this mission, um... tell in detail?"
The caster, under the control of a spell, naturally knew and said everything:
"The person infiltrating the east coast of the Sunken Ocean is reported to be a very powerful original Wizard, so only Master Shui has the confidence to firmly capture him in the surrounding region. Based on previous records of duels with original holders, I think it would take at least two months."
"... "
Ronald couldn't say a word.
Two months, if he really had to wait here obediently, he might as well hope that Claudia would bring other fleets of casters over to directly raze the entire relic!
How could this be a tiline he could afford to wait?
In the next second, faced with this situation, Ronald's mind started searching for other solutions.
Though there was no such thing as radio equipnt in this era.
The use of spells was quite exceptional though.
— Perhaps he didn't need to sit here waiting for Shui's return, but rather use so other thod to lure this Master Mage back?
With this plan in mind, Ronald naturally continued to ask:
"Tell , is there a way to contact Shui without leaving [Lachmont]?"
Then, the caster's actions gave Ronald hope.
"Yes."
With a slight nod, the caster under spell control continued:
"On the third underground level of the Three Beams Tower, there is a Crystal Ball that can contact Master Shui. However, that place is usually sealed, and we would never use it unless encountering an extrely special and serious problem."
"... "
This ti, Ronald didn't need to complain himself.
Almost as soon as the caster finished speaking, Il beside him spoke what was in his heart:
"Boss, again underground?"
"Why do these casters always like to put important things in such places?"
"It's probably historical heritage, from..." Ronald was about to follow Il's words, but suddenly noticed a blind spot, "Wait! Il, when I t you, weren't you also underground?"
"Huh?" Il was taken aback by Ronald's question.
But quickly, he had his own explanation, and his tone was quite assertive:
"These two matters can't be lumped together!"
"They are humans, and I am not. Wild flora and fauna hiding underground can't be the sa as humans!"
"... "
Ronald was rarely left speechless in a conversation with Il.
His expression dazed for a few seconds, he decisively dropped this topic, turning his focus back on gathering information.
And behind him, Il rarely showed a small victorious smile.
Following that, Ronald inquired in detail from the caster about [Lachmont] and also took the opportunity to check on the current status of the mystical side's warfare.
Currently, the casters' warfare was indeed at its most stalemated stage.
Both sides launched attacks on each other across multiple battlefields, with battles large and small erupting across the entire world, whether it be the sky, land, or sea. As long as casters could access a place, a battle could erupt at any ti.
As far as Ronald knew from history...
This situation would likely continue for quite so ti, until one side sacrificed the original manuscript to execute an extraordinary attack, gaining the upper hand, and forcing the Barrier Mountain wizards to expedite the artificial deity project.
As for the outco...
The victor ca to possess the power to rule the world, and sealed the troubleso enemy within the [Infinite Negative Zone]. The subsequent developnt of the world was as Ronald had found it after crossing over.
"Alright, you can sit back down."
"After we leave, you'll forget everything that happened here, and your day's work will proceed as usual."
Having obtained the information he needed, Ronald left the caster with a final spell before departing without hesitation, bringing Il with him as they headed below the Three Beams Tower.
Still avoiding casters and heading downward.
During this infiltration, Il curiously asked about the scene he saw earlier:
"Boss, you seem very concerned about the history of this era, don't you?"
"According to previous experience, once we get what we need, we shouldn't be in this historical period anymore, so why spend extra ti on these things?"
Ronald was more than willing to explain this to Il, so he imdiately responded:
"Il, history is extrely important."
"Why humans can have civilization and everything they have now, history is definitely an indispensable part. It can warn people about what not to do, and guide them on what to do."
"If you wish to beco more like humans, like Costate, this is absolutely essential."
Il noticed the sincerity in Ronald's tone and naturally nodded earnestly:
"Boss, I understand."
"... "
Within the Three Beams Tower, Ronald and Il continued downward.
Using the plan set in advance, they proceeded unhindered, only encountering so trouble when descending from the first floor to the underground. This area was open and easy for people to spot any signs of movent.
Fortunately, their skills were up to par.
In just a few monts of idle chat from the first-floor guard, Ronald and Il seized the opportunity to silently evade the guards.
They then reached the path leading underground.
Here, Ronald got to witness another marvelous spell creation of this era.
The entry thod to the underground of the Three Beams Tower was a magic elevator carved from rocks. All one had to do was stand on it, and with no need for other things, the control of the spell itself would allow the heavy object to move up and down the tunnel.
From stepping onto the elevator, to its activation, and finally reaching the destination.
The entire experience took Ronald and Il less than ten seconds in total!
