Chapter 1092: Section 1093 Key Information

“`

Just at this moment! Such timing, a coincidence?!

Monty pondered for a moment, then felt perhaps all of this was not a coincidence. Aoluxiya’s arrival from the deeper layers of the Abyss to this place, could it be that she was waiting for the birth of the Fire Monarch?

If that really was the case, then no matter what, it seemed they would have to face the Demon Lord head-on, right?

Monty closed his eyes for a long time before finally opening them and saying, “Find a way to contact Angel. I need more detailed information.”

At this point, it was impossible to make Monty abandon his plan. Moreover, in the current battle with the demons, they had already lost many Wizards, and such a great loss with nothing to gain was unacceptable to Monty.

But if they continued, not to mention the great demons of the Void Tower, how would they deal with this Demon Lord who was about to Ascend the Throne? This was an issue they had to resolve.

And now, the one with the clearest understanding of this matter was only Angel. So no matter what, he must contact Angel!

But how to contact Angel was another problem.

“Angel is very likely to be in the Mysterious Shop,” Sinafa’s voice came from the communicator. “Although the Mysterious Shop’s location is surrounded by the Sea of Fire, during my battle with the Succubus, I could faintly feel some movements within the Sea of Fire. Perhaps the Mysterious Shop wasn’t destroyed, but used the Sea of Fire as a cover to continue existing there.”

Sinafa’s words were accepted by everyone, after all, Angel was an Illusion Technique Apprentice, perhaps he had set up a layer of the Sea of Fire Illusion outside to conceal the cabin’s location.

Logically speaking, since Sinafa had conversed with Angel before, now would be the best time for her to go. However, Sinafa’s current condition was very bad, her Magical Core nearly exhausted. If she encountered demons, the situation could be extremely dangerous.

So aside from Sinafa, who was the best candidate? Undoubtedly, Sanders.

To others, Angel might not show his face, but Sanders was his mentor. From the words of others, it was rare to see Sanders showing such care for Angel, so Sanders going there was the best choice.

However, looking at the situation outside the floating ice, everyone sighed in unison.

Sanders was currently in the heat of battle with the great demon claiming to be “Minotaur,” and whether it was the great demon or Sanders, both had entered a crazed state of combat. Samantha was originally assisting in the battle, but as it progressed, she could no longer intervene and could only watch the battle from outside the circle anxiously.

Seeing Sanders’ current situation, any message would distract him. A distracted Sanders might lead to Minotaur targeting other Wizards. The others were not as powerful as Sanders, even Samantha probably could not withstand Minotaur’s attacks.

Under these circumstances, Sanders could not be sent to find Angel.

Monty pondered and then turned his gaze to Kanter.

He actually intended to send Kanter. Kanter’s strength was no less than Sinafa’s, and after activating his Bloodline of Night, his ability to conceal was also very strong. Most importantly, among all present except for Sanders, it was probably only Kanter who had the closest relationship with Angel.

Therefore, sending Kanter seemed appropriate.

However, Monty had other worries. Kanter might be a good choice, but his heart was not entirely with Frostmoon. House of Lilith had been a strategic ally with Illusion Demon Island for a long time, and Kanter was definitely more biased towards Angel.

From the fact that Kanter had seen Angel’s tracks in Lassudral but had concealed this information, his bias was evident.

If Kanter were sent, even if he met Angel and obtained some information, he might not “without reservation” pass the information back.

After pondering again, Monty said, “Kanter, will you go over there?”

Kanter had previously guessed this, so he nodded his head without surprise.

“However, with the Demon Lord’s birth imminent and Aoluxiya and her guards nearby, let’s be safe. Right now, as Sanders and Minotaur are locked in fierce combat, Samantha has become somewhat free. Let Samantha accompany you…”

A spark of insight flashed in Kanter’s eyes; he understood Monty’s intentions well enough. He claimed it was for safety, but in reality, he was worried about not receiving full intel.

Yet Kanter didn’t mind. With the situation so dire, he couldn’t truly hide anything. Besides, his creations were geared toward support and not much help in active combat. He had been worried that he might not have sufficient strength if he went alone, but with Samantha at his side, there was no need to worry. Samantha’s “Glazed Paradise” was definitely the most powerful punishment technique available.

“All right,” Kanter nodded, accepting the task.

When Samantha was called back to the floating ice and learned of the situation with Angel, she too was surprised, also producing many doubts like the other Wizards. However, now was not the time to ponder these doubts. Seeing the flames in the sky growing stronger, Samantha did not delay and immediately followed Kanter down from the floating ice.

“It would be best to bring Angel back,” Monty said this and then remembered Angel had a formidable person by his side; if offended, it might make the situation worsen. Hence, he added another sentence, “Do your best.”

After Samantha and Kanter left, Monty sighed softly.

When setting up the plan to hunt the offspring of the Demon God, he had already considered the existence of variables. For these variables, he had humbled himself, going to the Wizards’ Realm’s major organizations to recruit people to venture into the Abyss. Frostmoon’s many trump cards were also for these variables.

“`

Just like the great demons of the Void Tower, they had previously scattered across Lassudral, and no one knew what they were up to or what kind of impact they would bring. And these were the variables that Monty had taken into consideration.

However, Monty had never expected that the variable he would encounter in Lassudral this time would deviate so greatly.

Ascend the Throne, ah!

This was a scene scarcely seen in thousands of years. Had this not happened at this very moment, Monty might have tried every means to observe it, for after all, a lord actually corresponds to a legend, and who knows what inspiration it could provide for his future path.

But the variable had manifested here.

“I hope everything goes smoothly,” muttered Monty in a low voice.

“Lord Monty, the prospective lord has yet to formally ascend. What if we make a move and…” Maher made a throat-slitting gesture.

Monty shook his head: “The path of a demon lord is different from that of a wizard ascending to legend. The Throne of Heaven is unstoppable by any, not only watched over by the great will of the Abyss but perhaps also under the gaze of even more supreme beings… If we really intervene, we’ll immediately become detested by the Abyssal world.”

Monty was well aware that many Demon Gods recruited demon lords as their subordinates, such as Galal, the strongest force under the Lord of the Flameless, who was a demon lord himself.

Usually, those supreme beings wouldn’t care if humans frolicked in the Abyss, but if humans obstructed such a fated event, they would attract their attention and might even be purged.

Now, the only hope was that this demon lord would not be aligned with the Lord of the Flameless, otherwise, it could cause significant losses for their hunt for Aoluxiya.

Although it seemed that Aoluxiya had already entered the domain of that demon lord, Monty still hoped for a change in the situation.

If it really came down to it, perhaps they would have to resort to drastic measures.

However, the situation had not yet reached its worst, and the most crucial information for the moment was actually about Angel.

Previously, it was said that Aoluxiya’s choice to come to Lassudral at this time was too coincidental, but upon careful thought, Angel’s appearance here at this point in time was also quite fortuitous.

What was the reason Angel was taken away by an absolute powerhouse in Wind Whisper Valley that day? What role did he play in Lassudral? And who was that absolute powerhouse?

Monty turned his head to look at the silenced crowd: “Does anyone have more detailed information about this Angel?”

Monty always felt that Angel was also quite suspicious.

Judging from his manner of speaking, he didn’t seem to be restrained, but he also seemed unwilling to rejoin the team. So far, it had not been proven whether Angel was telling the truth or lying, and they still needed to wait for Samantha’s confirmation.

Before that, Monty hoped to gather more information.

As the wizards recounted their knowledge of Angel, the more Monty listened, the more surprised he became. At first, he just thought Angel was a rare alchemical talent, but as various pieces of information filled in, the image of Angel in his mind became more and more vivid.

It wasn’t just Monty; even the other wizards, after sharing their intelligence, expressed astonishment and suspicion at Angel’s various experiences.

From mortal to the pinnacle of apprentice in less than five years. While this wasn’t enough to break the fastest historical record, it was still within the realm of the utmost prodigies.

But what’s most important is that despite the astonishing speed of his power growth, Angel’s alchemy had not faltered in the slightest. The main reason he became famous was not his cultivation, but because his alchemy was shockingly strong.

By his third year in the Wizards’ Realm, he almost touched the domain of a mysterious alchemist. In his fourth year, he crafted his first high-tier alchemic work, and it’s known that for many renowned Alchemy Masters, just preparing to create a single work is measured in years, yet Angel quickly produced several astonishing works.

Furthermore, his alchemical creations were in fierce demand in the Southern Domain, even the simplest music box sold for two hundred thousand Magic Crystals, and the profit margins made many wizards’ eyes gleam with greed.

Moreover, Angel almost made it into the most authoritative “Forest of Time” of the Wizards’ Realm.

The more they learned about Angel, the more terrifying his potential seemed.

Monty now somewhat understood why even Rhein would break convention and follow Sanders into the Abyss—probably because he valued Angel.

“If he continues to grow, he is sure to be a tide-stirrer in the Wizards’ Realm.” That was the consensus among all the wizards present, although some voiced their lament in the face of changing times, a portion of the wizards who had conflicts with Sanders or did not get along with the Barbarian Cave, had eyes filled with dark suspicion and jealousy.

While everyone was already expressing amazement at Angel’s potential, a new piece of news suddenly exploded in the crowd like a bomb.

The person who uttered this news was a hunched old man with a plump sand rat in front of him.

He spoke in a slow and time-worn tone: “Actually, I know another piece of news about Angel… unless something unexpected occurs, he has been marked by the Thief of Time.”
