Chapter 1105 (1/2)
Two days later
In Neverwinter, Graycastle
”That was about the situation at that time” Ashes shared the details of her encounter with the de found the enemy's traces around 100 kilometers away in the north Those traces should be left by the Spider Demons when they crossed the forest I fancy there were just three or four of thenals, Roland did not know that Leaf had been under attack until evening The early next , he immediately instructed Tilly and Wendy to fly to the ter her back to Neverwinter
Ashes only suffered minor injuries but Leaf had been helped off the plane
Fortunately, Nightfall had grown the Seed of Symbiosis in Leaf's body While Leaf remained unconscious, her symbiont seemed to be fine This meant the impact on her was more mental than physical
Roland, in themap on his desk
He had already formed a vivid picture of the incident in hisunusual about the Misty Forest It noticed that the railway took a turn at the forest and stretched on toward Taquila Instead of forcing through the trench and the barbed wire at the terminus station, it had directly attacked the witch who controlled the forest
Meanwhile, a group of demons had traveled nearly 500 kilometers from the Taquila ruins to the northern forest The Spider Demons had not only set the forest on fire but had also been supplying the Red Mist to their aruerrilla operation
The fire was just a diversion The demons had probably foreseen that the forest controller would stay in the forest, watching the unfolding of the event They did not really care about whether the First Army would put out the fire or not
Perhaps, they had come to realize that Leaf was the supply hub for the First Army
The demons were obviously under the impression that once the forest controller was killed, hus would ih their speculation was not completely accurate, it did deic power They had not only figured out the foric power but alsowas carefully calculated, fro distance to the time required to retreat Only with a profound coic power could they successfully carry out this operation
Roland even suspected that the de similar to Leaf's ability
It would take at least a week for the demons to backtrack, so it was not very hard to trace the so, because the Magic Slayer could fly away anytime If with luck, they could probably kill a few Spider De this pursuit If worse, they would probably suffer an even greater loss
There was no effective measure to counter the demons in this case due to the secrecy of their operation Although most of the witches were under the protection of the God's Punishment Witches, the situation did not apply to the witches whoFortunately, very few Senior Deie and Lightning would notice any change in ular Senior Demon was about to attack In that case, they simply needed to retreat immediately to avoid a direct confrontation
Another thing that concerned Roland was the conversation between the Magic Slayer and Ashes
He did not anticipate that the de a Senior Demon, Kabradhabi did not have the ability to directly cos Camilla had to channel it to build effective co is the first step of evolution”
”Thousands of things have changed in the past hundreds of years, but you still live in the old way”
”It's ru of the first Battle of Divine Will, a e”
Ashes' and Pasha's words reverberated in Roland's mind
For soic Slayer took pride in the past hundreds of years, as though he had witnessed those nues himself
Could he be a dee?
That hy he had learned the hue?
But this was too unbelievable!
While Roland was absorbed in his thoughts, Wendy's voice came from outside the office
”Your Majesty,” she said as she pushed the door open, ”Leaf just woke up”
