Looking at the group of people who teleported after them, Kane finally rembered who they were.
The two individuals—one skinny, one burly—were Gordon's disciples, whom Kane once t briefly.
"Long ti no see, you two," Kane said with a smile.
Radec, all muscles, walked over to look at Kane and said with so surprise, "You've... beco gold."
His tone was filled with disbelief.
Upon hearing this, Kane smiled and said, "Just lucky, that's all."
"That's really quite an exaggeration," the tall, thin Mu Han said in amazent beside him.
"Knowing your talent is so extraordinary, I should have died to pull you into my battle group back then." Looking at the current Kane, Radec said filled with regret.
They rembered that a few years ago, Kane had beco an Explorer in front of them, and now he had already reached the sa level as gold.
It's too ridiculous.
The nearby Mu Han also nodded, his face full of regret.
Missing a great warrior, regretting for a lifeti.
"No way, you both flatter too much," Kane said modestly.
Mu Han looked at Kane and those behind him; each person had the sa mark on them.
"Are you all from the sa battle group?"
Kane nodded and said, "Yes, we are all from the Lantern Warband."
Upon hearing Kane's words, Mu Han furrowed his brows in thought, "Lantern Warband? Never heard of it."
Mu Han was a bit puzzled; surely, a force that soone like Kane would join couldn't be an unknown minor group, yet he was sure he hadn't heard of such a battle group.
After all, in this world, there are just too many forces at the battle group level, and those that are famous at this level, he has researched, so he shouldn't have forgotten.
"It's normal not to have heard, after all, my battle group was just created a few months ago," Kane explained with a smile beside him.
"You created it?" Radec said, sowhat suspiciously, "Didn't expect we would beco competitors, hahaha."
Though the World Ring is vast, even in this area.
But if all the explorers who need to enter this area are competitors, there's nothing wrong with that.
After chatting for a while, Kane then took his leave, leading the guild mbers behind him to depart from there.
Watching the departing figures of Kane and the others, Mu Han suddenly said, "Did you feel it? Their power."
Radec nodded, "Those few leading ones should be Kane's teammates, right? Their power is almost catching up to ours; are they really that powerful?"
"Bla you, you fool; if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have stayed in that dungeon for a year and missed out on so much information," Mu Han couldn't help but scold him.
"Bla ?" Radec showed surprise: "If it wasn't your teammate..."
"What do you an it's our fault?" Mu Han's teammate said in shock.
Then, the two groups stood here, arguing with each other, Mu Han and Radec even started fighting each other again.
However, this was already none of Kane and his team's concern.
At this mont, Kane and his team had already reached the outside.
Looking at the bustling scene around.
This was a huge square; the ground was neatly paved with gigantic slabs, stretching as far as the eye could see.
At least a dozen airships were parked neatly across the square.
There were all kinds, almost filling the entire visual field.
In the place Kane and his team had just left, a large teleportation crystal stone also floated in the air.
Airships kept flying over.
There were countless people on the square, as well as various chanical vehicles and equipnt, all busy unloading various goods from the airships.
So airships that had finished unloading took off again and entered the teleportation gate.
"Make way, make way, big cargo is coming."
Kane and his team heard the voice from beside them and turned their heads.
They saw a giant beast, resembling a triceratops, dragging a massive load as it walked past.
Behind it were several magic-powered vehicles, loaded with goods, following along.
While Kane and his team were curiously observing the surroundings.
An employee in Mist Council uniform ca over, looked at Kane, and asked, "Are you Mr. Kane?"
He had been waiting there for a long ti.
Kane nodded.
"Then, everyone, please follow ; I'll take you to where President Gordon is," he said, and led Kane and his team forward.
After going around a tall wall, a small square appeared in front again, but this place was much smaller compared to the area where the airships were parked.
Here, neatly parked were various types of magic-powered vehicles.
All the vehicles here were large, either used for cargo transport or for carrying people, specially customized according to the sizes of different races.
Then the staff spoke with a nearby driver about sothing.
After a while, several vehicles resembling buses drove over and parked in front of Kane and his team.
"Everyone, please get on the buses; the journey is a bit far, so we'll use the vehicles to get there."
Kane and his team separated into several groups, each boarding a bus, and then they drove toward the outside.
The magic-powered vehicles drove in the wild, and you could see various vehicles on the surrounding roads, so pulled by large beasts, others using chanical Association technology to create chanical vehicles.
Without exception, all of these were transporting various kinds of supplies.
And the place they were headed towards was precisely the Wall of Mist.
After traveling for about seven or eight hours, the bus finally stopped.
Kane looked out the window.
The towering Wall of Mist was close at hand, so high that even looking up, its top was out of sight. The white mist wall stretched skyward, vanishing into the distant heights beyond the range of vision.
And right next to the towering Wall of Mist.
A massive camp has been established here, its area exceptionally vast, and within Kane's field of vision, there were tents of various sizes everywhere.
Vehicles continuously arrived, piling supplies here.
In the sky, there was a huge protective barrier, stretching as far as the eye could see, completely covering this area.
Kane recognized this barrier, its purpose was to block all sorts of natural weather.
Including but not limited to rain, snow, and excessive heat.
After all, being right next to the Wall of Mist ant the weather here might show so unusual characteristics.
This condition existed only within a few kiloters of the Wall of Mist, which is why this place had no human habitations.
Even the Laka Town where Kane once lived was about dozens of kiloters away from the Wall of Mist.
"Please follow , everyone."
With that, this staff mber led Kane and the others forward.
"That's the Radiant Comrce Association's flag, isn't it?" said Kreya, looking towards a tent camp occupying a vast area in the distance.
Kane glanced at the emblem on the flag and nodded, saying, "Yes, who would have thought these forces would move in so early?"
Then looked elsewhere, seeing several world-class forces, the top-tier ones, all present.
Without exception, these forces had camps of extrely vast areas, filled with various staff and Explorers.
So, they walked all the way towards the center of the entire area.
After walking for about ten minutes.
A stone-built structure appeared among the sea of tents, with the Mist Council's flag fluttering on top.
Then, another staff mber approached.
"Mr. Kane, please follow ."
The staff mber who had been leading Kane and the others then spoke to the Guild mbers behind Kane.
"Fellow Explorers, please follow , I'll take you to your camp."
Kane nodded to Kreya, then followed inside.
While Kreya led the Guild mbers away.
Finally, Kane was led inside, through a corridor, to a wooden door.
The staff knocked on the door: "President Gordon, Mr. Kane has arrived."
"Co in."
Thereupon, Kane pushed the door open and entered alone.
Inside, a broad solid wood desk ca into view, piled high with nurous files and archives.
Gordon poked his head up from among these files and archives.
His beard, eyebrows, and hair were still snowy white, today's beard was braided into a single braid.
"You're here, have a seat."
Kane smoothly sat down on the nearby sofa and poured himself a cup of tea.
Then he asked, "President Gordon, what do I need to prepare for this month?"
Gordon continued to write and sketch with his feather pen on the desk.
Without raising his head, he said, "No need to prepare anything, you just need to stay in this area."
"Huh?" Kane thought he had heard wrong.
"Just stay here?"
"Yes." Gordon nodded, then said, "You just need to let the mist have a good look at you here, as for the reason, I don't know, anyway, it's always done this way."
After listening to Gordon's explanation, Kane could only shrug helplessly, "Alright, I really must stay here?"
Kane reiterated once more.
"That's right, you must stay here, around the Wall of Mist, of course, you don't have to stay all the hours, just a few hours each day will do." Gordon said.
"Oh, that's fine then."
Kane had thought he needed to stay around every mont during this period, but if it's just a few hours each day, that's no problem, he could totally manage that.
"Oh, take this, this is also the procedure for the upcoming ceremony, you are an important participant." With those words, Gordon handed Kane a stack of booklets.
Kane took it and flipped through it.
After all, it was a grand event that occurred only once in a thousand years, so the entire process was extrely complex and extensive, starting five days before the opening.
During this period, there would be various events and banquets, a rare opportunity for communication, a world event that surely deserved careful organization.
Kane flipped through it, and although there were many things and the process was cumberso, most of it had nothing to do with him; he just needed to rest subtly and enjoy this period until the last day arrived.
The last day was when Kane would take the stage.
"Is that everything then? If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave."
"Yes, that's all."
After listening, Kane nodded and left the office.
