Chapter 526: Danger (3)

It was quiet inside the tent, the only noise was made by people breathing.

The Fourth Elder was explaining the situation to Angele, whose expression changed as the conversation continued.

"Magic Mirror Garden, huh?" Angele hesitated for a second and continued, "If that's all the information you have, I'll be leaving now."

"Are you trying to find Vivian? We'll go with you!" The Fourth Elder said. "You won't be able to locate the stone wheel just by yourself and it's dangerous. The wizard world is collapsing and we must make sure that you're safe!"

"I concur," the First Elder agreed.

"Don't worry, I have my reasons." Angele shook his head and walked out of the tent.

"Green!" Fourth Elder rushed out of the tent, but Angele was nowhere to be found.

"I'm sure Green has his own ways. He survived the war and it looks like he wasn't even injured. Don't worry." The First Elder's brow furrowed. "I wrote letters to Effie and Memphis. They told me that they were having a hard time in Sky Lord's team. They haven't secured their position in the Mirror Garden yet. I think we should work together."

"Sadly..."—The Fourth Elder sighed—"if we could work together during normal time, the Elemental Hand would become the strongest organization in the central continent."

"There's nothing we can do. Alright, gather our team; let's head to the stone wheel. We need to make sure that Elder Vivian is safe!" the First Elder spoke in a deep tone. "If the alliance tries to stop us, we'll have to activate our final resort. This world is already collapsing and the situation won't get any worse."

"We can find a remote area and rebuild the organization!" The Fourth Elder chuckled.

"That's the spirit!"

*************************

In the forest, there was a river by the camp.

Becky and Turin were sitting on the ground, waiting for Angele to come back.

In the dark forest, a ball of dark red flame appeared and turned into a human being quickly. It was Angele, who was wearing a black robe.

"Turin, have you heard about the stone wheel?" Angele asked as he appeared.

"The stone wheel? Yes, Prince Evil Dragon talked about it." Turin stood up. "It's the ultimate fortress of Prince Evil Dragon. I heard that even the ancient wizard lords would have trouble breaking through it."

"Take me there."

"Sure. So the stone wheel is our next target?" Turin questioned.

"I think Prince Evil Dragon already gave you the coordinates and he wanted you to show me the location, right?" Angele looked at Turin calmly.

"Of course, Prince Evil Dragon has informed me of the coordinates and there's a position for you in the garden. I'll lead you to the garden now."

Becky sneered but she did not say anything. She knew who Angele was and felt speechless that Prince Evil Dragon saved a position for Angele in the fortress.

It was like protecting the enemy of the alliance.

Angele glared at Becky as she sneered. Becky trembled and quickly stopped sneering.

"Let's go, Turin. We should head to the stone wheel now."

"Yes."

Turin lowered his body slightly, turned into a red shadow, and disappeared into the forest.

Angele and Becky followed after him.

The three looked like three strings that were flying through the forest. They just pierced through the trees like they were energy forms.

Turin was traveling at full speed, he could travel 400 to 500 meters per second and the trees he passed by looked like blurry dark shadows.

Several hours later.

They did not rest for a second on the road and finally traveled through the forest, entering a vibrant green plain. The silver moonlight illuminated the grass as they started heading to the border.

They saw several small towns that were destroyed by dark knights. Angele could still detect the remaining energy waves left by the knights. It seemed like soldiers of the Dark Wizard Tower attacked everything they saw.

Angele followed after Turin calmly. Turin changed the direction several times and it seemed like he was checking the current location of the stone wheel.

"The stone wheel is a moving entrance so I had to change directions," Turin explained as he saw that Angele was looking at him. Turin's goal never changed, he knew that if he could survive the battle, Angele would help him because of his loyalty. Turin wanted to protect the ones he loved in this chaotic world.

Turin already placed the bet. He noticed that Angele was much stronger than he'd expected. Angele healed Turin's wound in seconds; Turin wondered what else Angele could do.

Turin was traveling at full speed, but Angele caught up easily. Turin knew that Angele was different but he wondered how Angele increased his power in such a short period of time.

"How long do we need to get to the stone wheel?" Angele asked with his brow furrowed. They talked to each other like they were not running. No one was breathing heavily.

"Around two hourglasses," Turin responded. "The night is ending... What's our goal?"

"I need to find Vivian. Prince Evil Dragon's son, Valla, lied to her and took her away. We need to locate her as soon as possible," Angele explained. He confirmed that Prince Evil Dragon had no idea what his son was doing. They signed the chaos contract and Prince Evil Dragon knew how important Vivian was to Angele.

"The energy movement in this world is strange and we can locate her easily. I think you might be able to find the direction. I want to give you the coordinates but Prince Evil Dragon only sent me coordinates infused with his energy waves and I can't just simply transfer it to you..."

"It's alright, we're traveling fast enough," Angele responded in a deep tone. "It'd take me some time to check the coordinates even if you could transfer it to me."

Angele's bloodline power did not increase his speed and he was slightly slowed down by the bloodline of the single-eyed giant. Although single-eyed giants had strong bodies, they were relatively slow when compared to other ancient creatures.

Angele and Turin had similar speed, but his body was stronger than Turin's.

It was a long trip so Angele decided not to cast Elemental Teleportation. He wanted to save the energy and it was much harder to do the calculation when the distance was too long.

***********************

In the dimension fissure of the Magic Mirror Garden.

The red sun was still at the end of the horizon.

There was no person on the green plain, but there were black deer eating grass quietly.

There was a white airship flying over the plain quietly. The red light from the sun illuminated the body of the ship.

There were two straight golden lines on both sides of the airship.

It was an average-sized airship and could fit around 30 people. The sails had already been lowered.

Vivian was wearing a revealing silk robe that looked like the summer dress of a noble woman. She stood on the deck quietly. Her decoltage and legs were exposed to the air. The white earrings looked like crescent moons and were covered by Vivian's long blonde hair.

Vivian stood on the deck and looked at the plain. She saw the deer eating grass and looked worried.

"Vivian, what are you thinking?" A man walked to Vivian as Valla's face appeared on her right. Valla looked at the plain as well. "Want some fresh venison? I can send someone to get you some."

"No, I'm fine." Vivian forced a smile on her face. "I'm just wondering if my friends are doing well."

"Don't worry." Valla put his hand on the back of Vivian's hand. "It'll be fine. I'll help them."

"Yeah..." Vivian slowly moved her hand away from Valla's hand. "How long do we need to get to the center of the garden?"

"Around three hourglasses, we're almost there." There was a gentle smile on Valla's face. "You look great in the dress by the way."

Valla took two steps back and looked at Vivian.

"I ordered this wedding dress from Cindalla. It might take some time for you to get used to it but it's a family tradition. You can take it off in a couple hours."

"No worries, I understand." Vivian nodded. "Anything else?"

"Oh, yeah. The breakfast is ready. Nina prepared food and soup for you. Also, we can have some purple fruit wine." Valla smiled. "Nina makes great breakfast, she grew up with me and she's my best friend. She told me that she wanted to become friends with you."

Vivian wanted to decline the offer but she had seen Nina—it was a girl that looked naive and pure. She hesitated for a second and nodded.

"Fine. I wanted to drink nutrition potion in my cabin, please thank Nina for me."

"No problem."

They turned around and walked to the cabin.

There were only five people on the airship. The other two people were just controlling the airship.

Vivian felt much better since she did not like crowded places.

They entered the cabin and sat down by tables covered with different dishes. There were roasted meat, donuts, vegetable soup, white bread, jam, and some egg rolls.

It was incredible that Nina could make all those dishes on an airship. There was also a wine bottle that was full of translucent purple liquid.

A girl with a smile on her face walked to the table and sat down.

"Vivian, I prepared those for you. I hope you will like the food. I want to become friends with you. Come on, help yourselves."

"I don't remember when was the last time you cooked for me." Valla shook his head. "I'll definitely enjoy this meal. Those are simple dishes but they're done very well."

"Just eat, don't talk!" Nina glared at Valla.
