Snow Red City.
This city at the foot of the snowy mountains is in a state of bustling activity.
A large number of mountaineers and explorers have gathered in this city.
"The legendary Holy City is actually real? I thought it was just a story."
"Who could have guessed?"
"Get moving, the Holy City is up in the mountains and definitely holds a lot of treasures. Be late, and there’ll be nothing left."
"All set, it’s ti to climb."
The reason for such commotion is the sudden appearance of the Holy City, which once only existed in legends, atop the mountain.
Such a massive city suddenly standing on the mountaintop naturally attracted a lot of attention.
But outside, there was still a layer of transparent, huge ice that hadn’t completely dissipated. However, as ti passed, it clearly began to lt.
Unlike Raelia and others.
These outsiders couldn’t directly pass through the ice. They could only vaguely make out the city’s appearance within the giant ice mountain as the ice lted away.
This also allowed more people who heard the news to co.
However, inside that icy city at the mont.
Kana asked, "Once confird there’s no problem, let’s head back."
They’ve thoroughly excavated the entire city, and not only the movable items, but they’ve also completely reproduced the city’s murals.
They even constructed a complete model of the most central building, the white tower.
This ans as long as they have the materials and the right location, they could completely recreate the tower.
And Bobo seed very interested in this.
With their space waist bags filled up, they began to return intermittently via the teleportation station they arrived from.
When it was finally Raelia’s turn to teleport back, she suddenly asked.
"Wait a mont, if we’re the last ones to teleport away, what happens to this teleportation station?"
"Don’t worry, there’s a destruction device inside that’ll blow it up, leaving only so remnants and unsolved mysteries."
"Alright, pretty thorough."
When the ice completely lted, letting the outside sunlight once again shine fully on the once-Holy City,
a large number of mountaineers and explorers rushed in, pouring into the silent city.
They were captivated by the sight of the city and the central tower.
"Is this the legendary Holy City?"
"Hurry, hurry!"
"There must be countless treasures hidden inside!"
Before long.
Screams of surprise and puzzled voices echoed everywhere.
"Why is it empty?"
"Also, the traces here are very new. Has soone co in before us?"
"Has everything been taken away?"
"Damn, who is it?! Didn’t they leave anything behind?"
This is too unprofessional, couldn’t they just take the most precious things first and leave behind so leftovers?
No soup left at all?
After all the excitent and preparation, to have nothing to show for it.
They then turned their gaze to the central tower.
Clearly, there’s bound to be many magic structures in that tower. If they dismantled it...
Maybe so magic tal and various materials inside could still be worth so money. Surely, they can’t leave empty-handed.
Just as they were about to make their move.
A bald-headed mage suddenly appeared in the Holy City via teleportation.
He first surveyed the area.
Then looked toward the central tower.
Facing the explorers below, he said unceremoniously, "This belongs to the Empire, it’s the Empire’s property. You uninvited intruders, get out now!"
"What? Do you think you’re..."
The person about to speak harshly was imdiately dragged away by a teammate covering their mouth.
"Are you crazy? He’s from the Empire’s Ice Council, and he’s bald."
"What do you an?"
"ans we can’t provoke him, let’s go, this ti we’re really unlucky."
Clearly, not every team had such insight, and many still voiced dissatisfaction, only to beco frozen.
At last, they shut up.
And the mage didn’t leave, but went to the broken teleportation array.
Squinting at the broken remains of the teleportation array.
"Ingenious alchemical item, self-destructed? Incomprehensible structure, not belonging to any current market faction... whose could it be?"
Since the Night Watcher currently hasn’t released any high-level alchemical items to the outside, their alchemical items’ characteristics aren’t known to other forces.
So no one would suspect the Night Watcher.
...
Several days later.
Candlelight City.
Kana sat in his office, with the noisy chatter nearby being quite annoying.
"Hey, Kana, why don’t you go for a walk? Can’t you delegate these damn paperwork tasks to soone else?
Aren’t you the boss here? Co on, let’s go out for a walk, don’t just stay in this place all the ti, okay?
I’m already sick of the surroundings!"
But Kana ignored him.
Seeing Kana not responding, Bugreit continued to mutter sothing on the side.
At this mont, there was a knock on the door.
Bobo ca in.
"Oh! Little cutie, you’re here!"
Seeing Bobo co in, Bugreit was the first to fly over, his vague spiritual form flying around Bobo.
A few days ago, Bobo would’ve been angry at being called that, but she was now used to it and didn’t want to argue with this dragon.
"Tell , what interesting things have you encountered outside?"
"None, could you please go away?"
"Hey, don’t be so cold, don’t be like Alyris, standing there all day like a block of ice."
As he said this, this chibi dragon soul mimicked Alyris’s serious expression on the side.
Then he sneakily added, "But the way she stares at Kana, people might think she wants to eat Kana up."
Even though he was whispering, his voice was absurdly loud, heard clearly throughout the room.
Clearly, it was his naughty nature trying to tease Alyris.
Alyris’s face instantly turned red, clenching her fist she transford into a red shadow appearing in front of the dragon soul, throwing a punch.
However, the dragon soul was just an illusion, rendering the punch ineffective.
Bobo couldn’t help herself, bursting into laughter.
Seeing the look Alyris gave her, Bobo quickly explained, "I’m laughing at him, you know, I’m on your side."
Kana rubbed his forehead helplessly.
He was really out of his mind at the ti, thinking there was nothing wrong with such conditions.
Who would’ve thought it would create such a ntal disturbance for him.
"Shall we make a deal?"
"A deal? What kind of deal?"
The kind of deal where you’ll keep your mouth shut.
