Chapter 161: The Other Side of the Great Wall

"There are man-made walls, and there will be people behind the natural walls. What a majestic building it is......"

He shook his head.

"But I've never been. Although my father is from the East, my mother is the daughter of a rancher from an ordinary background in the northern foothills, hundreds of kilometres from Victoria Harbour. Shortly after I was born, my father had to leave that home because of the call of his hometown. ”

"So, you haven't seen the Eastern Earth World with your own eyes?"

Longman Hall sighed, a rare expression of disappointment.

"It's a pity. I really want to know what the end of the abyss looks like. ”

"I've heard that it's a great empire ruled by immortal people called the 'Emperor of the Whole Realm', and the customs there are completely different from those of the Mayan continent, including the whole occult system possessed by the extraordinary, which is extraordinarily attractive."

"It is a pity that the place will always exist only in the mouths of travelogues, rumors and minstrels, but no one can touch it."

"It doesn't have to be unreachable."

The owner said very seriously.

"My father left me clues to find him before he left, provided I was willing to put everything on the line. When I'm old one day, I'll go to the other side of the abyss. ”

"But no one has ever been able to walk through a sea of mist, or climb a storm cliff, or cross a bottomless abyss, can they?"

"Facts speak louder than words, and my father was the one who came across the ocean. Since he can come, we have a way to find a way through. ”

"Perhaps, they didn't come along the Great Wall. This wall exists to prevent anyone from crawling out of the abyss......"

"Okay, that's off topic."

The Pavilion Master interrupted Mr. Hall.

"I've got a lifetime to think about it, and if there ever was one, I swear, I'd come and invite you."

"Honestly, Your Excellency," Longman Hall still hadn't changed his address to him, "I can guess what you're going to say next." For wizards, that kind of topic is far less interesting than discussing and fantasizing about the unknown. ”

"I'm sorry."

The other shrugged.

"But I have to say that this is an obligation as a partner. Mr. Hall, do you know that people from the Holy See are watching here? The journey of this group of young wizards has not been easy, and if no one is secretly taking care of them, things are likely to turn bad. ”

"The hunting moment itself is a kind of exercise for young people, and if you still have someone to take care of it all the time, wouldn't it lose its original meaning?"

"Even in the most unfortunate of circumstances, they could all die there?"

β€œ...... That's impossible. I'm just sending them to hunt demons in the wilderness, not invading the worldly realm and waging a war. It's not a group of them who do it. ”

"I have already said the answer to this question. The kings and priests did not take it so lightly, and they saw it as a thorn in their side early on, especially after the precedent of the Tower of Babel...... Isn't it? ”

Longman Hall frowned and was silent for a moment before speaking.

"Is the Holy See really ready to tear its face, even if it is a war with us? Have you foreseen such a future? ”

"They weren't supposed to be such short-sighted people. After the division of decades ago, the most important thing they need to do now is to use the power of the secular kingdom to restore their strength, rather than fighting us again at any cost. ”

"If not all the people in the Pope's room have their brains hot and bad, this can only mean one thing."

The owner replied.

"There is some great threat to this wilderness, they believe; Removing this threat as soon as possible is far more important than recuperation. ”

β€œ...... What is that? ”

Longman Hall asked.

Obviously, the implicit meaning in the words of this temporary colleague is that the Holy See may not be coming for the Magic Tower, but has other plans.

However, due to the existence of the hunting party, if the two sides are really unfortunate enough to encounter them on the road, the other party will never choose to stay - whether it is for position reasons or for the sake of keeping secrets, sooner or later there will be a bloody storm; In the face of the elite team of clerics directly under the Pope's Hall who were sent out to carry out secret missions, the young wolf cubs were probably no match.

The key to this is the purpose of the Holy See.

"Sorry, I can't see clearly."

His Excellency shook his head.

"A week ago, I had gathered all the astrologers and soothsayers who were at the Society's headquarters at the time, and tried to make observations by all means, but the end result was the same: we could only see darkness, an infinite depth. It is certain that its source is in the Silent Hills, but no one can discern its normal nature. ”

"However, since the goal of the Holy See is located here, the two sides will meet...... You know where the Fog Demon originally grew, right? ”

When the wizard leader heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous light appeared in his pupils.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You knew this before you suggested to me that you target the Fog Demon? ”

"No, no, no!"

The hall owner coughed dryly and quickly shook his head.

"Come to think of it, my men are involved, aren't they? If I had known that there was such a risk, I would not have agreed to this request for cooperation. ”

β€œ...... So, what exactly are you trying to say? ”

The other party used such a long foreshadowing that Longman Hall vaguely guessed his thoughts

"Declare in advance that it is impossible for me to leave this magic tower. I have my own obligations and positions, and if I leave this place, I am afraid that the end of the rule of the Tower will be over before the war can start. Soβ€”"

"I understand, Lord Hall."

The other grinned and smiled heartily.

"In that case, allow me to participate, right? I will take good care of my subordinates and the students of your tower. ”

…… Really.

Mr. Hall thought to himself.

That's what this person is for.

It is very likely that what he is pursuing is the same as that of the Holy See, the so-called "darkness that cannot be seen clearly through astrology and divination"β€”he is going for that, right?

It was said before that no one could detect the hidden things in the wilderness, but I don't know if it's true or not......

But Mr. Hall didn't think long and agreed to his request without hesitation.

"Okay, there you go. I'll take care of that. ”

Longman Hall didn't care if the partners had other plans.

He's the kind of person who says when he values something, there's only that one thing left in his eyes. Other than that, it would be meaningless to him.

"Thank you for your understanding."

His Excellency bowed slightly, and said goodbye to his partner with a graceful manner.

When the young man left his home, he put on a white mask embroidered with golden eyes. As a result, when he blended in with the ranks of the stargazers, no one could notice the difference between him and the group.

"President."

"Grow up......"

In a respectful welcome, the hall owner slowly walked into the white-robed man.

He raised his hands, slowly swept his gaze around, and said to everyone with a smile.

"In order to welcome the girl chosen by fate, I hope that the time will come when our long-cherished wish will come - now, let this journey begin!"
