Chapter 337 - Meeting Angel Again (1/2)
Looking at the light that was more and more dazzling in the rain, Roland felt that something was not right.
The magic apprentices noticed it too and looked at it from a distance.
Roland dropped three magic spiders and waved his hand, raising the mud and covering the whole camp with rocks again.
He snapped his finger, and three spheres of light ascended.
The magic apprentices immediately gathered before Roland’s building.
Roland walked down and said, “I’m going out to take a look. You stay here and be careful.”
The magic apprentices all nodded.
Then, Roland said to Andonara, “Please protect them for me if anything happens.”
With a brilliant smile, Andonara said, “Don’t worry.”
After leaving the instructions, Roland left the rock tent.
Inside the rock tent, Vivian heaved a sigh and said, “It’s really boring that Mr. Chairman’s got us covered for everything.”
The other magic apprentices didn’t look well either. They had pride too, and it was rather annoying that they were protected all the time like kids.
But they also knew that they were too weak to be of much help at this point.
After exiting the rock tent, Roland did not investigate in a rush. Instead, he walked slowly while the magic spiders explored the way ahead of him. It was less eye-catching this way. After all, Human Cannonball could be very noisy.
The magic spiders were quite fast and soon arrived at the scene of the accident.
From the pictures sent back, Roland saw that a crater had been left in the woods as if something had just crashed down from the sky. It was the source of the brilliant light.
Then, from another picture that the magic spiders sent, Roland saw someone sitting inside the crater.
All the raindrops were blocked by an invisible force five meters above the crater, so there was no water in the crater at all, even at its deepest point.
As the magic spiders drew near, the pictures they sent back became clearer and clearer.
Then, Roland gasped.
The “person” inside the crater had a pair of white wings and feather armor of the same color. She was holding a translucent s.h.i.+eld in the shape of a cloud with strange green energy circulating in it, and there was a white longsword in her right hand that seemed to be made of clouds.
At the hilt of the longsword, there was also a pair of tiny decorative white wings.
The woman was very beautiful, and Roland had seen her before… When Falken died in Red Mountain Town, it was this angel who directed his soul to the Paradise of Life.
An angel had fallen from the sky, wounded!
She had a sword wound on her back. White energy was surging around the wound, as if it was healing her, but a stream of green energy was disrupting it.
“This is definitely an epic quest.”
If he were alone, Roland would go to her and talk to her to see if he could trigger any special plot.
But now… he had to be responsible for those around him. The safety of Andonara, the magic apprentices, and the coachmen who had been driving the carriages for them all depended on him.
His decision would determine their fate.
Nothing that involved G.o.ds and angels could be trivial.
Roland sighed and left a pair of magic coordinates, before he returned to the rock tent.
He canceled the rock tent and spoke to everyone, “We will set off right now. We have a problem.”
Though everybody was puzzled, they did not propose any objection but take action immediately.
Soon, the carriages moved on.
Sitting next to Roland, Andonara saw the worry and regret on his face and asked in a low voice, “What happened exactly? Or rather, what did you see?”
“An angel!”
