At this mont, Rein glanced at nia’s radiant face and cherry-like red lips. For so reason, his heart fluttered, and he gently kissed her.
"Stealing a kiss should be okay, right?" Rein thought to himself.
"Huh? Why is Prince nia’s face getting redder?"
Rein glanced at nia’s lovely face and suddenly noticed sothing, silently wondering.
However, he only assud it was because the air near the Magma Lake was rather scorching and didn’t pay much attention. After setting up the Witch Array, he quickly went up, intending to bring the ancient rmaid girl down as well.
After Rein left, nia’s beautiful eyes slowly opened at this mont.
She glanced complexly at Rein’s departing figure, sighed softly, and resud deep ditation.
....
On the sea.
The battle for Reef Island was a constant mobilization of personnel and Strength by the Sea God Sect and the Federation, with fights breaking out one after another.
As soon as the battle began, the Sea God Sect relied on the ancient terrifying Sea Beast ’Smouldering Electric Eel’ Glasers. Right at the outset, they injured the Federation Sword Saint Terrio. Although the injuries weren’t severe, Glasers was so fierce that it pressed several fast fleets of the Federation into not daring to approach.
It wasn’t until later that day when other Federation Epic-level experts arrived did the situation beco balanced.
By the next day, with more Federation experts arriving, including several ’Ajax’ giant Demon Statues joined the battle, the upper hand was established.
The Sea God Sect gradually began to retreat!
Despite significant losses, Pope Egil’s intent was indeed to further restore the Strength of ’Smouldering Electric Eel’ Glasers. After all, nothing is more nourishing than a Blood al.
After the Federation occupied Reef Island, they naturally imdiately launched a large-scale search.
But they practically turned the not-so-large Reef Island upside down. Reginald and Terrio couldn’t find rein’s traces. During this ti, Reginald and other Federation High Rank Wizards exercised Investigation Technique more than once but still found nothing.
"Perhaps Lord Rein has so kind of Witch Artifact that shields from witchcraft investigation." Sword Saint Terrio thought for a while and said in a deep voice.
"Keep searching, inch by inch!"
"Yes!" The Federation soldiers began to search manually. If viewed from above, Reef Island seed to be occupied by dense ’ants’ all of a sudden.
About an hour later, an officer arrived sweating profusely to report: "Sir, we still haven’t found any trace of Lord Rein."
"Searched everywhere?"
"Everywhere! No... no, sir, there’s one place we haven’t searched—the lake." The bearded officer suddenly realized sothing, pointing at the lake ford by the explosion.
At this ti, the lake no longer looked like it did initially after the explosion of Rein’s "Molten Core Fla."
Due to the siphoning effect of surface pressure, underground dark river water was sucked up, and the lake surface grew larger. anwhile, with subsequent fierce battles, the surface vibrated again, collapsing the elongated tunnel Rein created, stopping the siphoning, and finally, the lake stabilized to its current size.
"Then what are you waiting for? Go quickly!" Terrio’s eyes sparkled imdiately upon hearing about the lake.
Yes! The explosion center is very likely.
Reginald also stared at the lake with burning eyes.
"Yes, sir." The bearded officer said.
Ten minutes later.
Federation mbers surfaced one after another from the lake, shaking their heads, while on the other side, several Water Elent Wizards exercised Water Witchcraft to investigate but still found nothing.
"Sir, there is no passage below, nor any cavern. We haven’t found any trace of Lord Rein."
After listening, Terrio’s expression sank as he waved his hand.
"Could it be that I was wrong, and in the previous battle, Prince nia and Lord Rein both sacrificed?" Reginald, who hadn’t rested for several days, felt low and his lips chapped.
Even as a Fourth Level Dawn Wizard, his heart was on edge, and fighting continuously for several days was wearing him out.
"I personally think, could it be that Lord Rein carries so kind of concealing device or Witch Artifact with him?" Terrio pondered for a while and said in a deep voice.
Because just like the Haleem team’s operation when trapped in Floating City, hiding in the shield and Witch Array, even the Floating City’s patrols and detection devices couldn’t find them.
But because this involved the secrets of Floating City, Terrio naturally couldn’t say it directly.
"Well... it’s not impossible, but what if Lord Rein’s injuries are too severe inside the shield..." Reginald didn’t continue speaking.
"Let’s wait for so ti first!" After contemplating for a while, Sword Saint Terrio said.
...
anwhile, the Imperial Airship ’Storm’ had already reached the Capital Tamriel.
"Red Queen nia is suspected to have fallen? Imperial Earl, no, it’s the Imperial Marquis and Vice Chief of Swordsn Lord Rein is missing?" Hearing this news, the Empire officials exclaid on the spot.
"Quick! Imdiately notify the Royal Family, the Elder Council, Sword Holder Headquarters."
"Yes, sir!"
As orders were transmitted, the news of the Empire Delegation being ambushed by the Sea God Sect on the edge of the Federation sea area quickly spread throughout the Imperial City. Suddenly, various conspiracy theories, including the Federation designing an ambush on the Empire Delegation, were rampant.
Fortunately, not long after, ’Earth Vibration’ Reginald, using long-distance witchcraft communication devices from the Federation, reported the incident to the Empire, slightly suppressing the conspiracy theory.
Reginald’s wording was akin to Terrio’s, using ’suspected’ and ’highly probable.’ However, this naturally didn’t puzzle the profoundly rooted Empire.
Star Mage Platform.
When Marshal Alfred, accompanied by General Augustus and the red-eyed Olena, arrived at the Star Mage Platform, they found an Elder from the Empire’s Elder Council already there.
"Crown Dalain, my old friend, I need you to personally perform a divination."
"Didn’t expect that visiting the Federation would lead to this!" Grand Astromancer Dalain sighed with emotion.
"Alfred, you’re here too." The elderly man with gray hair and a forehead full of wrinkles nodded.
"Elder Ivan, hello." Alfred bowed slightly.
Being from the Imperial Royal Family, he is an Elder from the Imperial Elder Council and an Imperial Guardian, profoundly experienced.
"This crystal pendant was once worn by nia for many years. Dalain, first try to find nia." Elder Ivan sighed.
"Magnificent starry river... please illuminate the path for ... find the lost traveler..." With Dalain holding nia’s used crystal pendant, he gradually chanted Great Astrology!
A magnificent star map suddenly appeared in front of him, with various stars shining brightly.
Since the subject of divination involves Red Queen nia, whose power is slightly superior to Dalain, even for Dalain, the consumption of performing Great Astrology is significant, and his accuracy is considerably affected.
Minutes later, as Great Astrology concluded, Dalain frowned, contemplating silently.
"Crown Dalain, what’s the situation? Is Prince nia really..." General Augustus couldn’t help but ask.
"Hard to say, but from the indications and guidances of the magnificent starry river, Prince nia is likely not dead, but seems not to be intact..."
"Intact?" Everyone was puzzled, starting to ponder imdiately.
Using this word to describe a person is indeed very strange.
"Prince nia’s state is odd. It’s the first ti I’ve encountered this. Each person corresponds to a star in the magnificent starry river. If the star’s light is dim, it often indicates that the person likely suffered severe injuries or might be trapped in so Secret Realm, etc."
"But Prince nia’s star is distinctly incomplete... this..." Grand Astromancer Dalain frowned.
Upon hearing Dalain’s words, silence enveloped the scene!
"Why don’t we try to find Lord Rein first?"
"Because if Lord Rein survives and we can locate him, we may know what truly happened to Prince nia." General Augustus pondered and suggested.
"Hmm, that’s a route we can try." Grand Astromancer Dalain nodded.
At this mont, the red-eyed Olena quickly stepped forward, respectfully handing a box to Dalain.
