Section 1004 Early Evacuation

After Sinafa and Samantha left, only Sanders and Kant were left on the field.

Sanders looked quietly at the Critical Forest in the distance... There are not many trees left in the Critical Forest now, almost all of them are lava pools. Even if there are still some living trees, they are estimated to not survive in the diffuse dust. It shouldn't be long before this place should be renamed.

The heavy snow is still falling, but when the snow falls on the lava pool, it is evaporated into mist. The dust below is reverberating, the fire is shining, and the white mist is lingering. At first glance, it is quite beautiful.

"No one expected that there is such a demon sleeping under the Critical Forest." Kant muttered: "The lord who fell from the throne is so rare."

Sanders did not respond to Kant's words, and continued to look into the distance. His eyes seemed to be on the Critical Forest, but he seemed to pass through the forest and look at the more distant Demon Howling Plain.

"What are you looking at?" Kant asked puzzledly.

Sanders spoke slowly: "I'm wondering if she will come back."

"It's hard to say, but the martial law in Demon City will end soon. It is estimated that we will leave soon. Even if Dongla comes back, it will not affect us much." Kant paused, his eyes flickering: "Besides, with the degree of her bad luck, I don't think Dongla has a chance to come back."

After Kant finished speaking, Sanders just smiled and shook his head.

The "will she come back" he mentioned was not referring to Dongla, but... Madeline.

When Dongla began to escape with Manjimone, Sanders found that Madeline, who was watching the battle in the distance, turned into thorns and sneaked into the ground, secretly following.

If you think about it for a while, you will know what Madeline wants to do.

After all, Dongla was the one who caused the genocide of the Silian family. Madeline chased after him, it must be for revenge.

Sanders discovered this scene, but he did not stop it. Before, Madeline and Dongla were completely unequal in terms of power. If Madeline went to Dongla for revenge, Sanders might have come forward to intercept her. But now, under the influence of bad luck, Madeline might really be able to kill Dongla.

Especially, Dongla has not been able to recover the magic source yet.

But, Dongla is a true wizard after all, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Sanders can't judge whether Madeline can return.

The situation in the abyss changes rapidly. Sanders shook his head and decided not to think about it.

Even if Madeline really can't come back, it's her own choice.

When Sanders returned to his territory, he saw Angel still standing on the high tower looking into the distance. It seemed that he had never left. The snow accumulated on his soft golden hair, like a pure white crown.

"What are you thinking about?" Sanders fell down.

"...Is this the power of the Abyss Demon?" Even though the demon had left, Angel's eyes were still a little dazed. In just a few minutes, most of the critical forest turned into a lava pool!

"That was a special demon." Sanders thought about it and simply told what happened before.

After listening to Sanders's narration, Angel's focus shifted from the demon to the legendary witch Dongla who loved to "graft" parts from other people.

"Is doom really that powerful?"

Sanders nodded. Even the demon lords avoided the Doom Patrol. In Frost Moon's records, the place where the Doom Patrol was located would bring endless disasters.

"What happened to Lord Dongla..." Angel asked curiously.

Sanders smiled and shook his head, but did not say anything.

...

Three days later, the heavy snow did not stop, and it seemed to be getting heavier.

The lava pool in the distance was still boiling, with firelight shining and white mist hazy. If it weren't for the strong pungent smell, it would have a bit of fairyland meaning.

After experiencing the horror of Manjimone, the order in the fortress became slightly neater. However, this situation did not last long, and everyone received a new order.

"Tomorrow we will evacuate the Watch Fortress, pack our luggage, and prepare to move to Kodo Port."

In Sanders' study, Angel was stunned after hearing the news: "Has the martial law in Demon City ended?"

"Not yet, but because of Manjimone's matter, Sinafa decided to move the position in advance." Sanders said.

This choice is in line with the current situation. After all, it is almost impossible for the descendants of the demon god to come out of the passage of the critical forest. What's more, if Dongla comes to his senses and runs back to the fortress, it will also be a disaster.

"You should also prepare. I will take you back to the wizard world during this period of transfer."

This is something Sanders had decided before. The abyss is too dangerous, and Angel is not even qualified to be cannon fodder here.

After hearing this, Angel nodded and turned to leave the study.

However, after he left, he did not pack his luggage, but walked out of the door.

Now he was about to leave, but Toby had not come back yet, so Angel wanted to call Toby back first.

Angel flew directly to the top of the tower and sent a summoning signal.

However, ten minutes later, Angel did not see Toby. He hesitated for a moment and sent two more signals, but looking around, the fields were vast and all were falling snow, and Toby still did not appear.

Because of the good mood of knowing that he would return to the wizarding world, at this moment, he suddenly became a little uneasy.

Sanders had said before that the area near the fortress was relatively safe, so he was relieved to let Toby play by himself. But now that Toby has not responded to messages for a long time, Angel has a bad feeling.

Was it because he was in danger, or was it because Toby was far away from the safe zone and did not receive his signal?

Angel recalled the last time he saw Toby.

That was three days ago, after Manjimone was led away by Donla. Angel recalled Toby and repeatedly warned him not to go to the Critical Forest and the Howling Plains.

After that, he fell into research and didn't see Toby again.

Angel felt a little uneasy, but he forcibly ordered himself not to panic. According to Toby's strength, with the Dark Feather and Gravity Vein, it is enough to cope with most situations. He should be fine...

Angel jumped off the tower and quickly walked towards the outer sentry tower.

Although the apprentices were a little lazy and relaxed during this period, the guards on the sentry tower were always on alert. Before Toby wanted to go out for a walk, he was almost treated as a foreign enemy by those guards. Later, it was Kanter who helped explain that Toby could move freely outside the fortress.

Keeping jumping up and running in the snow-covered fortress, Angel asked several guards in succession, but no one noticed Toby's whereabouts. It wasn't until he came to the tower in the north of the fortress that he learned something about the situation.

But this situation was not told to him by the guard, but was the result of an apprentice who was drinking and having fun on the tower and heard Angel asking the guard and helped him.

"You mean that little gray bird?" The speaker was a short and fat apprentice holding an empty wine glass and smelling of alcohol. He thought for a moment: "I remember, yesterday afternoon we went to look for the mysterious bird. I saw that bird when I was in Silver Ring.”

The Misty Silver Ring is a shrimp-like creature. For food wizards, it is a low-level ingredient. Eating it directly can help men become more virile.

"Right, pigtails?" The short and fat apprentice pushed the young apprentice next to him who had long rat-tailed pigtails.

The braided kid's face was flushed, and he didn't know whether it was because he was drunk or because he mentioned the silver ring.

"It was a bit dark at the time, so I didn't see it. But Bobota should have seen it, because he kept looking up at the sky." After the braided kid finished speaking, he looked at Angel with curious eyes: "Are you Mr. Pat? ?”

"You know me?"

"Bobota said before that you are a disciple of His Excellency Huan Mo." The braided kid's eyes seemed to be shining with an expression of admiration.

Popota? After Angel heard the name, he seemed to open the memory box deep in his mind, and a young figure in a white robe jumped out.

Is this Bobo Tower the other Bobo Tower?

While Angel was thinking, the pudgy apprentice kindly took Angel around in a circle on the tower and came to the other side. Then Angel saw a man half lying on the roof, leaning against A man is sitting on the eaves of the upper floor to cover the snow, leisurely drinking wine.

At the same time, Angel was stunned by the bloody chains wrapped around the man's body.

Sure enough it was him.

This chain was originally made by Angel.

Since refining this chain, Angel has not seen Bobota again. After not seeing each other for many years, they meet again here.

"Popota, tell me, did we see that flying bird yesterday?" The pudgy apprentice leaned against the steel guardrail and shouted to Bobota outside the guardrail.

Popota took a sip of wine and turned her head.

He looked directly past the pudgy apprentice and looked at Angel.

After a moment of confusion, he picked up the wine glass with only a thin layer of liquid left and gave Angel a toast.

"We meet again." Popota said with a smile.

Angel was stunned for a moment, doubts flashing in his eyes. Hearing Bobota's tone of voice, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"It seems that Mr. Pat has forgotten me?"

Angel shook off the strange feeling of familiarity in his mind, shook his head at Bobota and said, "Of course I haven't forgotten it, and I didn't expect to meet you here."

The relationship between them is just that of seller and customer. If the time and place were different, Angel might have exchanged a few pleasantries. But at this moment, Toby's whereabouts were unknown, Angel did not continue to be polite and asked directly:

"Just now, this..." Angel glanced at the pudgy apprentice, and when he was thinking about what to say, he immediately introduced himself: "My name is Dusky."

"I'm looking for such a gray seabird." Angel spread his hands and simulated Toby's illusion on his palm: "Just now, Duski told me that you have seen it before? I don't know where it was. ?”

Bobota looked at the phantom bird in Sanders' palm, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems that I have really seen it. Let me think about it... I should have seen it near Shadow Hill yesterday afternoon."
