Chapter 1104: 349. Re-enter the Empire

“Sir, someone has entered the Pollution Zone again.”

Nolin sent a mind message to Noland Lee:

“I’ve placed over a dozen Mechanos on the fourth layer of the Floating Island for surveillance. About half a minute ago, Wizards appeared in the southeast corner and directly west of the fourth layer of the Floating Island, seemingly teams from the Pure Light Court and Hotams.”

Noland Lee was cracking the Alchemy Gate leading underground.

Nolin shared her Magic Vision with him.

The group of wizards in the southeast were dressed in white robes with gold edging and wore gold-and-white masks.

This was a team from the Pure Light Court.

Bella and his uncle Yass, whom Noland Lee had met before, were among them, with Yass still leading the team.

Using Deconstruction, Noland Lee saw that the Pure Light Court’s team had come to the Pollution Zone on Jay Spade’s orders to gather information.

If possible, they would try to build a magic fortress within the Pollution Zone, which would save them from having to negotiate with the Golden Federation for a stationing place within Union City.

The group from the west was from Hotams, with a somewhat more complex composition.

There were Natural Wizards, Shape Wizards, Death Wizards, and Deep-Sea Wizards, each represented by a few individuals.

Just as the Death Herald Guild became excited upon seeing the “Gray Wilderness,” the Death Wizards from Hotams were also shocked by the presence of death energy here.

The energy was so potent that one Death Wizard couldn’t help starting to set up an array to collect death energy on a large scale with a Magic Circle.

By contrast, the wizards from the other factions were much calmer, with some even expressing disgust.

Because of the action of the Death Wizards, voices within the Hotams team were discordant, inevitably plunging into intra-faction conflict.

“Sir, do you need me to stop them?” Nolin asked.

Noland Lee glanced at the immobile Hotams team and then at the Pure Light Court team, which was exploring the Floating Island layer by layer.

Further away, there were more indistinct figures, likely wizards from other forces.

Noland Lee replied:

“No, Nolin. Both teams have the ability to detect the Mechanos’ Illusion Magic disguises, and we can’t possibly stop everyone. Withdraw the Mechanos that are surveilling them and place them all around the Spire.”

“Understood, sir,” Nolin responded.

Noland Lee held the Rune Staff and drew the final stroke on the Alchemy Gate.

A flash of elemental radiance flickered past, and the Sluice Gate that blocked the path disappeared in the flash.

A dimly lit corridor sloping downward appeared before Noland Lee.

Only when the Alchemy Gate vanished did Noland Lee sense the presence of the Blood Sun Seal Descendants.

Blood-red threads wafted up from below, intermingling with the surrounding purple and black fumes, weaving several lines of Characters.

Noland Lee glanced at these characters and waved his hand, dispersing them with a gust of air.
