‘Damnit, I saw it when we ca in. I would be able to record the process of Mafa rlin’s experints with my image crystal if I could take just one more look.
‘With it, I could obtain the technique to refine the Beast God’s Blood. This would be a huge contribution to the Shadow Tower and I would just need a drop of Beast God’s Blood to advance to the Heaven Rank at that ti.
‘After advancing to the Heaven Rank, my Shadow Stealth would definitely beco an Ultimate Spell and nothing would be able to block my path from now on, no one could ever stop .
‘That damned three-faced monster, don’t think that you caught just because you discovered ...
‘Hmpf, although these guys are powerful, no one discovered the image crystal I’m carrying. And it’s active! It will record anything I see!
‘You had best lead to the laboratory...’
Byron wasn’t struggling, he was actually looking forward to it. And sure enough, the door to the laboratory was opened and two mages led Byron in after a few seconds.
In the alchemy laboratory, Lin Yun was in the middle of his alchemy experint and simply didn’t pay attention to the people behind him. Once his experint finished, he turned around and saw Byron.
Lin Yun smiled, his eyes shining with interest.
‘Planar Infiltrator? It’s not easy for one of those to appear in this era, I truly didn’t expect to encounter one...’
Lin Yun recalled the records of Planar Infiltrators, interest visible on his face.
Plane Infiltrators were the most infamous existences during Noscent’s peak.
These guys were able to infiltrate planes, and they were able to sneak into a Planar Path as long as they found the location of its entrance, whether it was opened or closed.
Moreover, these guys’ concealnt abilities were extrely formidable and they could rarely be obstructed. The most famous one was the first one to be called Planar Infiltrator by everyone.
For over a century, every ti a plane rich in resources was discovered, the planar coordinates would imdiately be known by so interested forces.
The fights over the planes were extrely fierce. Later, soone discovered the truth. A man claiming to be a Planar Infiltrator sold the coordinates of the planes to many forces.
There would always be people buying them. For a century, no one knew who that guy was and only called him the Planar Infiltrator.
It was only a century later that a mage controlling a Spatial Venom Snake’s eye actually discovered the Planar Infiltrator infiltrating a plane from the Planar Path.
After being captured, the Planar Infiltrator’s secrets were unveiled, and people learnt that he was rging with the shadow of the Planar Paths to infiltrate the planes. No one expected that, they thought that he was using so spatial spell to infiltrate the planes.
In the past century, the defenses all forces set up for their Planar Paths were made out to resist spatial magic, so no one could have ever discovered him.
But now, this small thief was discovered sneaking into his Demiplane. How could Lin Yun be cheerful, this guy had clearly co to steal the technique to refine Beast God’s Blood.
A wisp of mana flew out and transford into a Mana Hand that grabbed into Byron’s shadow.
Suddenly, an image crystal appeared within that Mana Hand and was shattered into pieces as the Mana Hand ford a fist.
Shock flashed in Byron’s eyes, imdiately after, a wisp of special power fluctuations appeared around him and the Demiplane’s elental power ford a three-ter-big cage around Byron before he was thrown out of the laboratory.
Lin Yun controlled the Demiplane’s power to form a three-ter-big cage imprisoning Byron. That space was cut off from the outside world and even suppressed by the power of the Demiplane. Unless his power could match the entire Demiplane’s power, he would never be able to escape.
This was the best way to imprison a Planar Infiltrator. There was no need for a secure cage, they only needed to cut off access to the shadows.
After easily imprisoning Byron, Lin Yun took his mind off this matter and kept researching the Beast God’s Blood.
With this matter rapidly settled, no one paid attention to this matter in the camp and they continued doing what they were doing.
But there were two worried people outside the camp.
Dylas and Sizhang were gathered together with terrible expressions.
Dylas dispatched people to take a look around the camp, but they didn’t discover anything from a distance. The camp seed to be operating normally.
“Sir Sizhang, I’m afraid things aren’t so good. Our people have yet to return. It’ll soon be a day since they infiltrated Mafa rlin’s camp, that should be enough to take dozens of trips around the camp.
“Even if they had no success, Byron would have sent soone to report back. Yet not a single person ca back and the camp is very peaceful.
“They might have already died, the people I dispatched must have unfortunately been killed by Mafa rlin...”
Dylas’ expression was unsightly, he was even sowhat pale.
As for Sizhang, he was even paler, just like an Undead.
“Sir Dy... Sir Dylas, this shouldn’t be. Hasn’t it been less than a day? They shouldn’t have completed their mission yet, that’s why they have yet to co out.
“Let’s wait a bit, they’ll definitely return, definitely, right?
“Nothing will happen...”
Sizhang stuttered.
The two weren’t in a mood to talk after saying a few sentences and they paced around restlessly. Once the agreed ti was up, their faces were as white as sheets of paper and carried alard expressions.
“Sir Sizhang, a day has passed. I’ve already sent people to examine the camp and there has been no sign of activity.
“Moreover, I also used our Shadow Tower’s communication thod, but there has been no response to my call.
“They have definitely been discovered and already fell.
“With our Shadow Tower’s communication thod, even if they were caught, they would be able to respond as long as they had a wisp of mana. But there has been no response...”
Hearing Dylas’ words, Sizhang fell on his buttocks, despair visible on his face.
“Finished, we are done for...
“It’s completely over. I would have only been thrown into a mine by Sir Dedale if I went to report, but now, he may just directly get rid of .”
Sizhang was despairing and regretting.
‘I shouldn’t have listened to Dylas... If I had reported to Sir Dedale imdiately, he might not have punished imdiately due to the need of manpower in the Raging Fla Battlefield.
‘If I managed to have so outstanding achievent, I might have even ended up without a punishnt...
‘But now, the cooperation has failed, and the people sent to steal Mafa rlin’s technique have been captured, and may have been eliminated.
‘There would be no hope if they are still alive. As long as Mafa rlin openly announces this matter, the weak alliance between our human forces would instantly collapse.
‘This might even lead to the two forces fighting, and it would spread to the Odin Kingdom and Andlusa Kingdom.
‘When the ti cos, even dying would be very difficult. I would be treated as the main culprit and my soul might be dragged into a lamp. They might even stuff a Pig Beastman’s soul into my body...
‘I can’t afford this responsibility...
‘I’m screwed, I shouldn’t have co here. I thought I was smart, but I shouldn’t have listened to Dylas.’
Sizhang was sitting on the ground with a despairing expression. The Burning Tower’s rules were very strict, they were very specific about rewards and punishnts. The rewards were very generous and the punishnts made people despair.
He would be done for if this matter ca out, regardless of the outco.
On the side, Dylas’ expression was also extrely pale. Regardless of the relationship between the Odin Kingdom and the Andlusa Kingdom, even if they were opponents, they were currently allies.
They tried to steal their ally’s technique. If this went well, they could just keep on denying. But being discovered would definitely shatter the alliance and this would beco the fuse that started a war.
In Noscent, wars could start even when resources appeared in an area between two forces. This kind of technique spying would definitely trigger a war if unveiled.
‘I didn’t even get to enjoy the benefits that I provoked a lot of trouble, and they have the moral high ground. I wouldn’t be able to find any helper willing to assist for benefits...
‘No one can afford this responsibility... We would beco the first scapegoat...’
Dylas was extrely pale. He looked at the dazed Sizhang and gritted his teeth.
‘Sh*t, I can’t share the bla alone. Since the plan has already been exposed, then I can only go for the technique. What could the others say as long as it is in my hands.
‘And I have to drag in Sizhang of the Burning Tower!’
“Sir Sizhang, our plan has already failed and we are exposed. That Mafa rlin definitely won’t let us off easily.
“We can only take possession of the technique if we want to survive, otherwise, we would just beco scapegoats if sothing big happened.
“What if Sir Dedale learns about it and Mafa rlin says he wants to cooperate?
“Our achievents would have no worth, we would definitely be killed as an apology gift to Mafa rlin when the ti cos.
“We would be screwed!
“If we can’t steal it, then we will snatch it with force!
“So what if Mafa rlin isn’t weak and can burst with the power of a Heaven Rank powerhouse? We only need to lead more people in and snatch the technique.
“When the ti cos, you can ask for help from Sir Dedale. With the Beast God’s Blood in hand, Sir Dedale would definitely protect us. No matter how angry Mafa rlin is, he wouldn’t be able to do anything.”
Dylas was tempting Sizhang, but Sizhang cowered before hesitantly shaking his head.
