Chapter 743 Return and Plan
After his consciousness returned to his body in the main material world, Avis opened his eyes and digested the information he had gained this time.
Gray Mist's last sentence revealed quite important information.
He would break through in less than a month.
Although there may be many interpretations of this sentence, twenty-nine days is less than a month, and one day is also less than a month.
But Gray Mist then left an invitation, and now other prophets are no longer a threat to him, so he doesn't need to deliberately hide anything about the breakthrough time.
Less than a month is likely to be really close to a month.
For high-level masters, this is already a very short time. It is even possible that they do a small magic experiment and prepare a slightly complicated magic ritual, and a month has passed.
However, more things can happen in a month than imagined.
.
….….
Unlike controlling the floating city and dealing with the ninth-level people, listening to the [Hermit] explain the current situation and participating in the prophet's gathering did not take up much time and energy for Avis.
While separating a trace of consciousness to listen, his body in the main material world was also dealing with Fiona's problem.
The war that broke out again in Xingchen Territory ended about half a day ago. The ninth-level apostles of the Songxing Esoteric Cult were defeated after all and were completely defeated by the joint efforts of the three ninth-level apostles arranged by Olivendi, the Alfred family and the fourth princess.
One apostle was completely left behind, and the rest escaped with heavy injuries.
However, due to Fiona's inexplicable disappearance, after solving the enemy's ninth-level existence, several ninth-level apostles immediately began to search for Fiona's whereabouts in a hurry.
But "lucky" was very good. Because they subjectively believed that Fiona had been taken away by the enemy, several ninth-level apostles focused their search on the traces of the enemy's escape and did not find Fiona hidden in the secret base of the Spark Organization.
This is because after discovering that Pomona was suspected of rebellion, Avis asked Fiona to temporarily remove her family amulet and other accessories with positioning functions.
Then he directly asked Fiona to use the power of dreams to call a dream creature to send them into the deep dream world.
In the deep dream world, you cannot teleport at will. If Pomona gets rid of the dream turbulence and wants to locate Fiona's whereabouts through the family amulet, he will be misled in the wrong direction.
At the same time, in the base of the Spark Organization, Avis used the concealment spell [Dark Side of the Moon] of the Old Secret Scripture to completely cover up Fiona's appearance, bloodline and spiritual aura, changing it into a completely different appearance, and even covering up the traces of the web of fate.
Doing so can ensure safety to the greatest extent, but it also means that not only Pomona, but also other people in the Olivendi family cannot locate Fiona.
It is equivalent to Fiona disappearing again, and this time there is no notification.
Doing so is also Avis's helpless move.
After all, he has no substantial evidence to accuse Pomona. In the absence of Duke Carrot, if Fiona returns to the family, it will be too easy for Pomona to make something happen.
In addition, there are two different opinions in the family on how to deal with Fiona, and Avis is also clear.
Thinking about it now, Avis even has some doubts. In the previous life, the Olivendi family was destroyed because the high-level officials wanted to persecute Fiona, which led to Fiona's fate of absconding, becoming stronger in a series of adventures, and finally taking revenge.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
In the secret base of the [Spark] organization, Fiona immediately cast a concerned look at Avis when she saw that his chess moves suddenly paused uncoordinatedly.
"Nothing, just received some latest news about the outside world."
After retracting his thoughts, Avis smiled gently at the girl, and then casually dropped a wizard chess piece in his hand on a corner of the chessboard.
At present, Avis is playing a black and white war chess game with Landon. Just like the popularity of the secret card among the nobles, this kind of chess game is widely circulated among the people of the empire.
Perhaps civilians and low-level professionals can't afford it, and are reluctant to buy a single secret card priced in gold coins, but it doesn't prevent them from having their own entertainment.
The chess pieces of this kind of chess are very simple. They can be easily processed with wood or stones of different colors. The rules are somewhat similar to the chess of Blue Star, but the scale is usually much larger.
Chess pieces are divided into knights, mages, kings, etc., each with different functions and moves. There is only one king, but there can be hundreds of knights. There are also various areas representing special terrain on the chessboard. The ultimate goal of the game is to capture the opponent's king.
At first, it was Landon who played against Roche and others. After discovering that Avis and Fiona also came out of the room, in order to show friendship, he invited Avis to play a game together.
Of course, Landon actually has a little idea. The winning or losing of this game is still a competition of the calculation ability of both parties. In this way, the game results can be used to slightly test Avis's strength.
Just now, when Avis's thoughts returned from the depths of the web of fate, it was his turn to make a move.
"Unfortunately, Landon, it seems that our game can only end here."
After explaining to Fiona, Avis turned his eyes to Landon.
"Are you leaving?"
Frowning and looking at the stalemate on the chessboard, Landon looked at Avis with some regret.
The two sides are now fighting at their most intense moment. Many knight chess pieces are intertwined, and the king is protected by the magician and other chess pieces, facing each other at both ends of the battlefield.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Landon can't see which side has a clear advantage.
"Yes, my family has discovered some problems. If we continue to hide here, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."
Anweisi nodded, he was not going to wait any longer.
On the one hand, staying in one place for a long time is easy to be discovered, and on the other hand, this accident out of everyone's sight is an opportunity for Fiona.
She can see more things that are not normally seen, the operating rules of this society at all levels, rather than just being a tool to break through the legend.
At the same time, in Anweisi's plan, Fiona is also an indispensable part of his stimulation of the stargazer.
After all, the stargazer was tricked by him at that time, and he knows more about the backlash suffered by the stargazer than any other prophet.
In the collapse of the floating city, the number of ninth-level people whose bodies were destroyed and who died. Normally, if it was another 8th-rank prophet who suffered the backlash, it would probably be enough to make him fall permanently.
Even if the stargazer is a 9th-rank extreme prophet and may have made all kinds of preparations, it is unlikely that he would recover in just a few years.
So, under normal circumstances, Gray Mist's breakthrough cannot be stopped.
But if he wakes up the stargazer from his closed-door recuperation state in advance, it will be different.
Although your injuries have not recovered yet and forcing a move may make your injuries worse, your student is ready to break through to the 9th-rank prophet, do you care?
