Chapter 1208: 381. Completely none_2
Atop the mountains, Noland Lee had built the simplest of houses using Earth Rock Magic and chanos.
Currently, these houses were just made of wood. After Nolin and the chanos had moved in, Noland would have Nolin help him construct the courtyard and building he had imagined.
Why not leave the construction of these houses to the Dusk Giants, the readily available labor force?
Ah, that was naturally due to the issue of size.
The houses Noland intended to build were ant for residents like himself and Denise Green—mankind.
To the Dusk Giants, such buildings were practically the size of ant hills.
...
Expecting a burly giant to hand-craft exquisite hos was even more challenging than if Noland were to do embroidery himself…
The Dusk Giant had spent seven natural world days to help Noland construct a sub-dinsional environnt of clear mountains and fresh waters.
After he left, Noland Lee returned to the natural world to arrange for Denise, Nolin, and Nicolette to move.
They would take everything they could, including the alchemy platform needed to create chanos, the warehouse to store alchemy materials, the magic access ter for storing data, and so forth.
Everything that couldn’t be taken would have any traces of their presence wiped by Noland and then be scrapped or sealed away.
The hassle of moving was far greater than the Dusk Giant’s modification of the sub-dinsional plane. Noland had been busy commuting between the sub-dinsional plane and the natural world for nearly 30 days from the day he returned.
During this period, Noland also consulted with Selena.
According to the soul contract they had signed, once Noland owned a sub-dinsional plane, Selena would beco his supervisor, managing the sub-dinsional plane for him.
However, since Selena had not yet “resigned” from the Deep Sea Branch, she could not stay in the sub-dinsional plane permanently, at most only occasionally popping over.
It would not be until her father, Mingwaq Pomida, agreed and Selena had fully handed over her duties to her successor that she could completely detach herself from the affairs of the natural world and peacefully settle in the sub-dinsional plane.
The key lay in the choice of Selena’s successor.
The most suitable replacent for Selena was Mingwaq Pomida’s sixth child, her brother Philip.
Philip was now 17 years old, and there was still a year left until he reached the age where, legally, he could act independently.
In Selena’s plan, she would train Philip to be her successor within a year, and then, on the day he assud duty, she would “wash her hands of it” and leave.
Selena’s resignation in a year was sothing she was willing to do, and Philip also wanted to be the successor, but their father, Mingwaq Pomida’s attitude, was sowhat thought-provoking.
To keep the secret of Noland Lee obtaining a sub-dinsional plane, Selena did not use the excuse of joining Noland to resign to her father. Instead, she claid she aid to reach the Tenth-Ring Wizard, thus needing to rid herself of trivial distractions.
Mingwaq expressed neither approval nor disapproval, rely instructing Selena to arrange the handover well. Whether Selena could leave the Deep Sea Branch as she wished after the handover was still unknown.
Selena was sowhat worried about her father’s attitude.
First, she feared that her father would equate her departure with Noland Lee owning a sub-dinsional plane—indeed, the sa day Selena proposed leaving, many undisguised Deep-sea Wizards appeared around Noland’s Island 33.
On the other hand, Selena always felt that sothing unexpected would occur within the year, such as soone anonymously reporting to the Departnt of Magic that Noland illegally owned a sub-dinsional plane and plane device. Such baseless accusations could only be cleared with the cooperation of the accused himself, which would inevitably involve Noland’s secrets.
The combination of these two factors considerably dampened the joy Selena felt for Noland finally owning a sub-dinsional plane.
Noland Lee had no good solutions for this and could only take things one step at a ti.
Besides, he did not have much energy to ponder over Mingwaq’s issues.
His ti was spent strengthening the sub-dinsional plane.
While he and the Dusk Giant were transforming the environnt in the sub-dinsional plane, Clint “Windhawk” and Benjamin Jelani, who had lost their magic avatars in the maze space, secretly sent their wizards to investigate the true cause of their magic avatars’ demise.
Clint and Benjamin did not know what their magic avatars had experienced in the maze space, nor were they aware that the stargaze had now beco Noland Lee’s sub-dinsional plane.
All they wanted to do was figure out why their magic avatars had perished.
The first person they approached was Severas Nabi, the Night Devotion’s Extraordinary Saint Wizard.
Inexplicably, Severas Nabi’s sub-dinsional plane “Frost Hair Blood Ring” had disappeared.
Completely vanished.
Even Wizards most skilled in star positioning didn’t know when the “Frost Hair Blood Ring” had lost its trace of a star.
The disappearance of this star caused a huge uproar within the Ulnas Circle, attracting nurous newspapers to follow the story.
As the investigation deepened, a series of eerie events that had occurred at the Night Devotion ca to light.
The last sighting of a Night Spirit Witch above the Seven Ring level was four months ago. Since then, Night Spirit Witches of the Seven, Six, Five Ring levels and beyond had successively disappeared and had not appeared in public again.
At the ti, so Wizards had noticed this situation.
However, considering the Ulnas Ring Law’s protection of Wizard forces’ secrecy, these Wizards did not share their findings with others or the forces.
It wasn’t until the “Frost Hair Blood Ring” had disappeared that people realized sothing had changed within the Night Devotion.
At this point, Clint “Windhawk” and Benjamin “Gathered Thunder”, who had last collaborated with Nabby, beca the primary individuals of interest to the Departnt of Magic.
Of course, outsiders were unaware of the presence of these Transcendent Wizards.
The public investigation report concluded after the Departnt of Magic announced the complete disappearance of the Night Devotion, and public opinion gradually faded over ti.
Only a handful of people knew about the investigation involving the Transcendent Wizards.
Clint and Benjamin personally received the investigators, sending their magic avatars to et with them in a clandestine chamber prepared at Hotams Academy.
At this highly confidential eting, Clint and Benjamin disclosed the entire process of their cooperation with Nabby.
To leverage the power of the Departnt of Magic to clarify the matter, they essentially told the whole truth.
By the end of the confidential talk, they also presented their own thoughts.
They believed that Nabby had trapped them.
Yes, it was Nabby who had trapped them, not so mysterious entity.
The so-called mysterious entity was likely just an excuse Nabby used to shift bla, as it was Nabby himself who had cost Clint and his companion a significant amount of Blood Magic materials and magic avatars.
As for where Nabby was now?
Isn’t that obvious!
He must be on that newly appeared star!
The guy had definitely abandoned his “Frost Hair Blood Ring” for a new ho, which is why the star of “Frost Hair Blood Ring” had disappeared.
This explanation seed logical and well-founded to the magic departnt’s investigators.
After hearing about it through Professor Erica’s contacts, Noland Lee gave a thumbs-up and remarked, “Brilliant,” ultimately realizing that it tied back to his own sub-dinsional plane—what a serendipitous coincidence.
Because of this, during the process of moving, Noland Lee eagerly began to set up defenses.
He found a mountaintop in the sub-dinsion, where together with Nolin, he built an energy conversion area over 10,000 square ters to transform remaining Soul Energy into Magic Energy, continuously strengthening the barriers of the sub-dinsion.
All uninvited people could only enter the main space of the sub-dinsion by breaking through its barrier.
Noland Lee’s sub-dinsion barrier was a maze space laid out by the “Escape” core of the plane.
After taking control of the sub-dinsion core, he could manually alter the layout of the maze space, adding detours, setting traps, and deploying combat chanic spirits, among other things.
In sum, the more combat chanic spirits and hazardous magic energy invested into the maze space, the stronger the barriers of the sub-dinsion beca.
During this ti as Noland Lee was moving, many Wizards had already used ritual arrays to send letters, magic puppets, magic servants, and other items into the maze space.
They either tried to knock on the master’s door with letters or explored this sub-dinsion barrier for breaches to penetrate.
Noland Lee decided to play dumb, not responding at all.
He believed it wouldn’t be long before uninvited guests showed up in the maze space.
