As soon as Kyle finished speaking, the scene around him changed rapidly. He was actually thrown out of the folded space by the World Tree.
This feeling was really unpleasant. Kyle stared at the World Tree in the folded space. He only hated that he did not learn a few more swear words from Lincoln.
"You just entered the folded space?"
Ke Na looked at Kyle in disbelief, then frowned. "You seem a little different."
Of course I'm different. Kyle rolled his eyes. With the physical body created by the World Tree and the Heart of the Sage, it could be said that he was now more powerful than Sage Mori.
It was not surprising that the World Tree knew about Kyle's needs. The release of the dark matter allowed the World Tree to strengthen its surveillance of everything around it. Kyle could feel that his every move was being monitored by the World Tree since he entered the barrier.
"This guy is really a good-for-nothing," Kyle muttered, then sighed.
After a while, Irene walked out of the folded space with a Fruit of Resuscitation and handed it to Kyle. Irene did not forget to sigh. "The World Tree seems to know that I'm going to pick the Fruit of Resuscitation. Everything is going smoothly."
"Hehe …" Kyle certainly knew what was going on, but Lincoln had a very good saying. As long as he had no morals, no one could hold him hostage.
Seeing that Kyle was about to turn and leave, Ke Na tried to reach out and stop him. "Aren't you going to stay for the celebration?"
Kyle shook his head. In the end, he chose to remind Irene, so he said, "The culprit behind the release of the dark matter is a Forest Guardian."
"What did you say?" Irene frowned. From her expression, it was not difficult to tell that she did not believe Kyle's words.
"Simply put, there's a mole among you."
"Who told you?" Ke Na asked. "Could it be the World Tree?"
"That's right, it's that bastard."
After Kyle finished speaking, he left without looking back, leaving Irene and Ke Na looking at each other.
…
"Where are the three little fellows?"
Sarah looked at Lyon, who was still analyzing his opponents. City of the Night placed great importance on this competition. Trades had even used his connections with the Demon Bird Family to obtain a lot of important information.
After Lyon arrived at the accommodation arranged by the Royal Academy in Liberty City, he hadn't left the Academy. On the other hand, Sarah took Alice and the other two out to see the world.
"Let's go eat. Our opponents this time are very strong. Not to mention the defending champion, the Royal Academy, the Universidad Católica, who came out of nowhere, and the Barbarian Hammer City College, whose strength has improved in recent years."
Lyon had a headache. According to the situation of the previous competitions, it was reasonable to be wary of the Royal Academy. However, from the information provided by the Demon Bird Family, many academies came prepared this year.
"Don't worry, our three little fellows aren't to be trifled with, especially Alice and Yril. One of them has outstanding magic power, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she's stronger than me. The other is a Dracon. I really don't know what you're worried about."
Sarah had a very high opinion of Alice. A little fellow who had just passed the Level 3 Magician examination. Her magic power was the highest among those of the same rank. Those endless strange techniques made Sarah gasp in admiration.
Lyon smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Let me tell you some unfortunate news. Yril's Dragon Soul has been sealed by Kyle. He told me this himself."
"Ah?
That's a bit troublesome. Although Yril is strong without her Dragon Soul, there's a limit to her strength. "
Sarah scratched her head and said irritably, "Forget it, forget it. Don't think about it. I'll leave the battle tactics to you. I'm having a headache just looking at those words."
Lyon looked at Sarah with a helpless expression. When the Four Directions Council decided to let Sarah lead the team with him, he had already expected this scene.
"Where's Xoura?
I asked him to gather information. Why hasn't there been any news after so many days? "
From the day they entered Freedomtown, Lyon had sensed a strange atmosphere. He even saw a few silenced people raised by the House of Reydon in the corner. Before the City of the Night became autonomous, the House of Reydon had also sent a few silenced people to spy on them. After the City of the Night became autonomous, these bugs were all chased away by the Hyena Blade Association.
Lyon didn't understand why the House of Reydon would place silenced people in their own territory. His intuition told him that Freedomtown didn't seem to be safe.
It was worth mentioning that Xoura had been forcefully brought to Freedomtown by them. Originally, this guy was very unwilling to set foot here, but Alice's one sentence made him follow obediently.
"Big Brother wants you to protect us."
Hearing that it was Kyle's order, Xoura didn't hesitate at all and immediately took on the role of bodyguard.
Sarah shrugged. "The last time you asked him to gather information, he wasn't willing. You had to agree to a series of conditions before he agreed to look for his former friends. I guess he's still indulging in debauchery."
Bang!
As soon as Sarah finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and in came Cthulla, who was wearing a wig.
Xoura threw the wig on the table in a bad mood. "Teacher Sarah, I don't need to say what kind of behavior it is to speak ill of others behind their backs, right?
Do you think it's easy for me to gather information for you?
I had to endure dizziness (drank too much) and smile. Not only did I sacrifice my body (went to the brothel), but I also got laughed at (used too much strength and the wig fell off). "
Sarah apologized awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Lyon patted Xoura's shoulder and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Xoura. Sarah just doesn't know what she's talking about. Don't take it to heart. Did you get any useful information?"
"You don't say, I did," Xoura said seriously. "Do you know about the Tula Kara Desert?"
"Of course we do," Sarah blurted out. "Isn't your brother stationed in the Tula Kara Desert?"
"Yes, it's about Cloning."
Xoura explained, "He was the first person to use magic. The old man wanted to recall him to use bloodline magic, but he was rejected."
"Oh?
Defying the king's order?
Your brother has guts. "Sarah gave him a thumbs up.
Xoura smiled and then said, "That's not all. There's even more shocking news. Victor Londo is dead. There's only one king in the Tula Kara Desert now."
"Cloning?"
"That's right!"
Xoura nodded and said, "He became king after leading his troops to conquer Londo City. Now he's fully deserving of the title of Desert King."
"Hiss …" Lyon took a deep breath and looked at Xoura with burning eyes. He asked, "Did he announce his independence from the royal family?"
"There's no official announcement, but it's about time. The House of Reydon won't be able to suppress this news for long."
"What's up with those aphasia?"
Xoura smiled and said, "Cloning is a member of the House of Reydon. It's normal for him to keep a few aphasia."
Lyon instantly saw Cloning's ambition. "Could it be …"
"Yes, with his personality, of course he won't settle for the desert."
