Chapter 700: 223. One trap after another_3
Noland Lee felt a touch on his soul, indicating someone was trying to initiate “Soul Perception” with him.
Noland Lee activated “Soul Perception” and heard Selena’s voice.
“I’ve interrogated those seven deep-sea wizards. What you said is true. The despicable Fagen has extended his claws to the Deep Sea Branch, which touches my bottom line. I have personally imprisoned those seven deep-sea wizards.
“As per your request, I have cleared all energy monitoring data from the wizard base and magic outpost and temporarily shut down the energy monitoring device. Before you signal me, the monitoring device will remain off, and I will be on standby in the nearby sea area, ready to support you at any time.
“After everything here is over, I plan to invite you to my study to talk about Fagen’s affairs. Knowing him, he won’t let it go easily.”
Noland was not surprised by Selena’s voice in his mind. In fact, it was the letter he wrote earlier that had called her from the Core Circle.
At this moment, Selena was hiding in the sea water twenty or thirty kilometers away, ready to provide assistance at any time.
Noland replied using “Soul Perception”:
“Thank you for your help, Selena. The situation today is too complicated to summarize briefly, but after everything is over, I’ll come to your study for a detailed discussion. Before arriving at the Suman Archipelago, I stayed in Union City for a while and got to know some Ulnas Ring wizards, who were members of the Elemental Judgement, relatively kind and orderly. I naively thought that all Ulnas Ring wizards would be so easy to get along with. Now it seems that I was wrong. The majority of Ulnas Ring wizards like to take advantage of situations and abuse their privileges.”
Selena replied:
“Are you talking about Mabel and her wizard students from the Elemental Judgement? Actually, they are the exception. Most members of the Elemental Judgement are difficult to deal with, harsh, and extreme, always threatening to throw people into the Fire Elemental Realm and burn them to ashes.”
“Oh, I see…” Noland’s eyes flickered as he realized his impression of the Elemental Judgement was biased.
Selena continued:
“Once again, thank you for telling me about the betrayal of those seven deep-sea wizards. According to our soul contract, I will assist you when you need help. As for the upcoming battle, do you have any intelligence? If we know who is coming, it would be even better. I can make preparations in advance.”
“You’ll find out soon, Selena. Just fulfill the contract, and leave the rest to me.”
Noland communicated with Selena using “Soul Perception” for a few more moments, then disconnected the perception and checked his pocket watch.
After killing the three main culprits, Noland had obtained their complete panel information and memory fragments.
In the scheme designed by Fagen, Plin, and the Demon Brain Parasite, besides the disguised deep-sea wizard, there would also be another wizard from Fagen’s family present at the scene.
However, this person wouldn’t always be there; they would only appear after nightfall.
Calculating the time, the butler wizard who would come to inspect the assassination site under cover of darkness should be arriving soon.
Noland activated the “Mental Beacon” and “Mind View,” keeping a close eye on the nearest magic ocean current to the assassination site.
He took the Elemental Energy Reactor out of his magic pouch and began setting up thunderclouds in the dark night sky.
In order to ensure that he could instantly kill the upcoming butler wizard, Noland had to resort to some trump cards.
After all, the strength of the soon-to-arrive butler wizard was much greater than the previous three enemies.
