"We have some preparations to do as well." Bone and Vapor left the platform.
Angele watched them turn into a white star and a green star. His expression changed and he was a bit depressed.
"30000 souls…"
Angele knew that he needed to prepare the sacrificial offerings to summon the lords or just the sealed forms, otherwise, the lords would not be able to travel through the dimension tunnel. It would be like an elephant trying to pass through a narrow tunnel.
He glanced at the woman who was still unconscious and raised his hand, picking the woman up using energy particles.
"Eye Devil, how were you and the other lords sealed?" Angele decided to ask the question before leaving the platform.
Eye Devil remained silent for a second and responded, "We're just recovering using the sealed forms."
"Which means you sealed yourselves? Were you severely injured?" Angele was a bit surprised.
"You know the realm war, right? If so, you should know that we're not the strongest beings among the realms," Eye Devil responded in a deep tone.
"Thanks…" Angele nodded and left the pyramid with the woman. They disappeared into the darkness within seconds.
*************************
Three days later. In the morning.
The wizard world.
The forest in the Tarry River area was already partially destroyed.
Black smoke was striking into the air and there were ravens rotating in the sky.
A young man wearing a black leather armor was walking in the forest, checking the surroundings constantly.
It had been three days since Angele left the Nightmare Realm; he did not return to the Elemental Hand, he was heading to the Red Flower Valley. It was the location where Prince Evil Dragon lived.
Angele did not see many people around and the beautiful Red Flower Valley was a mess.
He was slowly advancing in the damaged forest. Angele walked to a half-burnt tree and rubbed its trunk.
*CHI*
A layer of dark ash appeared on the tips of his fingers.
Angele looked at the black ash and scanned it using the biochip.
'It was burnt five days ago and the fire was infused with Ice energy particles somehow.'
He then reached into the black smoke.
*KA*
A black frost climbed up his fingers. The black smoke was cold like ice, Angele thought the smoke would be warm.
'Red Flower Valley… I think Prince Evil Dragon already moved to another location…'
He pointed at the ground on the right, releasing a ray of red flame. The flame ray quickly turned into a muscular lion man.
"Stay here and pay attention to anyone that approaches the area. If you meet a servant of Prince Evil Dragon, ask him to contact me," Angele ordered.
*Roar*
The lion man responded with a roar.
Angele glanced around and walked in the other direction while rubbing his purple ring slightly.
'I remember there's a town in this direction… it should be…' He casted Elemental Teleportation and teleported hundreds of meters. Angele passed through the forest and stopped by a city that was surrounded by dark walls.
Angele was surprised by the scene before him as he recreated his physical form.
There was no guard patrolling around or guarding the city walls. The morning light from the sun shined illuminated the surface of the walls.
The city was quiet and empty, it felt like the place was abandoned. However, rays of sunlight pierced through the black smoke that looked like dark clouds floating above the city.
*GA*
He heard the ravens making noise in the sky.
Angele's brow furrowed, he glanced at the ground and found some bloodstains. There were also armor pieces and weapons lying on the ground.
The whole city was deadly silent, no one was making any noise.
He stepped on the wooden bridge and saw two piles of outfits left by the city guards on the ground. It almost looked like the owners of the outfits took them off and left the area.
'What's this?' Angele sniffed at the air and walked to the armor pieces.
He crouched and started checking the armor. He found a tiny hole on the silver armor and the green shirt, but there was no blood.
Angele rubbed the edge of the hole and started thinking.
Standing up, he rubbed the purple ring again.
'City of Fallen Leaves… The population here was around 250000, most of the residents were mortals and wizard apprentices. It's nearly impossible for them to leave the city without taking any of the resources…'
Angele looked at the ravens and opened his mouth. A black scorpion sign appeared on his forehead.
His eyes turned into two dark vortexes and released translucent energy waves.
"Level 2 spell, Bird Control."
Angele raised his right hand slightly; several ravens flew to him and landed on his arm. Black scorpion patterns appeared in the ravens' red eyes.
'Let me see what's going on…' He tapped the head of a raven lightly.
*CHI*
The scene in front of Angele's eyes changed, the things that happened in the city were replayed.
In the center of the ground, there was a green plant that looked like an enormous tower. It looked like the plant released countless green vines which were spreading to every corner of the city.
The mortals in the city were all pierced through by the vines released by the plant. Their life energy was quickly absorbed by the plant, causing them to groan, and their bodies turned into white ashes, disappearing in the wind.
"Modified creatures…" Angele's expression turned serious.
With a flick of his finger, the scene disappeared and a lion man appeared behind Angele. The lion man slashed the air with his silver claws.
*BAM*
A translucent shadow was hit by the claws; however, it was still invisible.
Angele turned around and looked at the empty ground in front of him.
The gentle wind blew the yellow sand into the air and several invisible monsters that looked like dogs appeared. Each of the monsters was about one meter tall and they were making some strange noises.
The monsters slowly surrounded Angele.
Angele raised his left hand and showed the monsters his ring.
"Take me to the one in charge here. I'm an elite member of the organization, the name is Purple Eye."
"An elite member?" A monster that is stronger than the translucent monsters stepped forward and stared at Angele.
"This area is controlled by the modified creatures and I thought master Thomas is in charge of the elite members now. Why are you lying?"
"Do you understand the situation right now? I can report to the organization immediately and you'll face consequences…" Angele lied with a blank expression on the face.
The monster's mentality wave was bright like the sunlight, the monster had the same power level as a top-level rank 3 wizard. The other monsters were at rank 1 or rank 2, Angele would have to run if the monsters decided to attack him.
However, it seemed like not all the organization members knew that Angele was a traitor.
The monster slowly nodded after staring at Angele for a while.
"Fine, the legion commander is busy right now but the deputy commander will be able to talk to you."
"I'm just here to hand over my right and this is an order from the organization. You'll be punished if I'm late," Angele spoke in a cold tone.
The monster hesitated after hearing those words.
"Alright then, follow me."
It turned around and disappeared into the air.
Angele remained calm, he quickly disappeared into a ball of flames as well.
They passed through the empty streets and buildings. The two stopped in front of a tall building that looked like a church.
"Master Green… I've been waiting for you for two days…" A calm voice came from the building. An old man in a black robe stepped out of the building and looked at Angele.
"Let me introduce myself, this is Thomas, and I'm here to take your position." The old man smiled
Angele checked the surroundings, he noticed that the invisible monsters and the old man were the only living beings around.
The old man nodded slightly. "I hope you can accept the organization's arrangement. We're all serving the empire and we shouldn't be selfish."
"No worries. The war is getting intense and I'm too weak to lead the elite members in the area. The organization made a wise decision," Angele spoke calmly.
"It's great that you can understand. Let's complete the procedure now." Thomas nodded.
"Of course." Angele took off the purple ring and handed it over to Thomas.
Thomas grabbed the ring and checked it. He made sure that Angele did not set up any trap and put the ring on.
"Ah, one more thing. The plan you submitted regarding the Elemental Hand is declined. Also, you're a servant of the empire and you should help us defend against the Elemental Hand."
"What about the people I want to save? I submitted the request too." Angele's brow furrowed.
"I believe you know that if my mother fails to convince the elders of the Elemental Hand, the situation will be awkward for her."
"You signed the contract and your request is being verified, don't worry." Thomas was an important member of the organization and it seemed like he had access to the documents.
