Vincent received the report about what happened in Nidite City. It contains all the events that had happened and he was stunned for a moment after reading the part about Krusk's sudden arrival.
"I was careless…" Vincent said as he started scratching his head.
He didn't know that Lola has a satellite cannon hidden by her Formation Arts. Based on the report, it seems that it can actually defeat a Celestial Being which is certainly a huge feat considering how slow they are advancing with their Magic Technology.
He thought that the current peak of their technology is their Flight Engine and Magic Cannons… He didn't expect that Lola can already create something that can match a Mana Cataclysm's attack.
'I wonder how strong that was…'
Vincent mused as it seems that the young River Dragon was injured but didn't rest at Nidite City to recuperate at all.
After its battle with the Sea King, Yulia and the others had seen that the dragon was actually bleeding but as they were preparing to give him treatment, the Dragon just flew away after taking a glance at them. It left without saying any words.
Of course, Vincent wasn't too worried since as long as the young dragon is alive, he has potions in his hands that could provide him a full recovery… Once Krusk returned to his lake, he can just send some food and potions to him as a way of showing his gratitude.
Anyway, Vincent also wanted to confirm the result of the mission since Yulia and the others were unable to get it from Krusk. At most, they realized that there will not be an invasion today and they are hoping that there wouldn't be any more in the future.
"I guess I should give Krusk something more for that trouble..." Vincent said as he put down the report...
'Hmm... Reading reports is much better...'
***
Three days had passed after Krusk attacked the Sea Race's underwater city.
The young dragon had created chaos in that place and killed numerous Sea Creatures. Faced with such a mighty beast, the Sea King tried to appease it with its wealth but was obviously rejected by the Mythical Beast…
It was at that time that the Sea King learned that the beast was actually working for the humans on land and wasn't there by mere coincidence…
This is the real reason why the Sea King doesn't want to attack the land and opposed the messengers of the Star Garden Peak as much as possible. They don't want to provoke beings that are out of their league. They are clearly aware that they can't rule the land since their bodies require water. The idea of making a swamp is just too unconvincing for him…
Unfortunately, what he feared had come true as the humans have finally sent their trump card.
They probably realized that there was no end to their skirmish and wanted to end the battle all at once.
In the end, the Sea King can only promise that he would no longer attack if there the humans will no longer drop a blazing star on their ocean…
"Star Garden Peak, huh… I don't think it's the right time yet…' Vincent muttered as he looks at the constructions going on in Nidite City.
He has arrived at the city to confirm the dungeons that Lola would share with them. This is an important resource to them so he wanted to personally check the dungeons together with the other officials of the city.
"I thought you were interested in the Star Garden Peak?"
"I heard about it too… Have you learned something about them recently?"
Yulia and Severin asked. They are currently on the streets of Nidite City and were about to check the Mage Tower being built by Luc's team. Although the Tower can already function and provide some assistance, it hasn't been completed yet and still needed about two or three more months to be finished.
At the mention of the Star Garden Peak, Vincent immediately recalled all the information that Faviona has given to him…
It is a place where puppets are the main type of weapon. The rank of the magicians there is determined by the strength and number of puppets they can control at once.
"I just don't think that we're ready to face them yet… We still have to worry about the Black Magic Organization. Perhaps, if we stabilize our situation here, I can set up a group for an expedition." Vincent explained.
"That's true… There's also the matter regarding the Overseer…"
As the three were walking around, they heard the sound of hooves clopping on the ground grow louder. A carriage slowly advanced until it reached the group of three.
Soon, Lola came running out and her face was filled with excitement. Vincent was curious about this since he just left her office a while ago.
He had already met her to discuss the payment before he even decided to walk around the city. There shouldn't be any more matters left to discuss.
"Junior Brother! I have news about Master! He's alive!" Lola said with a big smile on her face.
This is indeed good news!
They have already learned about the sudden disappearance of the First Tower. Vincent was, of course, shocked when he heard about it and wanted to investigate it.
Even Thyrus, the first Grand Magus to see the aftermath, was unable to find any useful traces to know what had truly transpired in that place.
Instead, the terrible act was claimed by the Black Magic Organization. This organization spread that it was done by the magic god's avatar and no one can deny this claim.
That was the only clue they have.
"Finally… What happened to him? Is he injured?" Vincent asked.
"He's fine… He has at least 8 Tower Masters working for him so there is nothing to worry about."
"That's good to hear… How about the deity's avatar? Is that really true or was it just a rumor to scare the people?"
Lola wry smiled after hearing this question…
"It's true… The avatar really exists… Luckily, Master Ignacy has the Legendary Staff with him so he was able to escape with a few people on his side…"
Lola explained.
"Right, Master also warned us about the possible attack in our territory… He believes that it would be our Eldest Senior Brother who is going to be attacked first so he had them evacuated… He said that we should also do the same… What do you think?" She added.
Vincent furrowed his brows after hearing this.
