Chapter 386 Black Prison
Chapter 386 Black Prison
"Great Elder, please help my Lidya family."
Given the family's current situation, only the person in front of them can save it, Cam said as she knelt in front of him, and Heidi did the same, and the two of them just crawled on the ground.
Ivan frowned slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he condensed an invisible force, lifting the two of them to stand up.
"Let me ask you a few more questions."
"Excuse me."
"Is everyone in your family gathered in Qianguang City?" Ivan asked.
"Y-yes."
"It took you two a lot of effort to escape from Thousand Lights City, right?"
"Yes, most of the people in Lydia's family have learned enchantment techniques, and we were involved in many parts of the formation. After discovering the truth, we finally waited for the opportunity, but in the end, Mond discovered the clues.
In the end, they only had time to send the two of us out, and the others were holding back the beast for us. Now I’m afraid—I’m afraid—”
Came answered him, and at the end she was in so much pain that she couldn't continue.
"I'm afraid that many people have been killed. Before leaving, grandma asked us to come to you." Heidi continued.
"Vice Dean Doris." Ivan nodded slightly and pondered.
Heidi then realized that she had spoken out of turn. Both the siblings knew that he and his grandmother had a bad relationship, and that they could be described as hating each other. Saying this might backfire.
All of a sudden, the two didn't know what to say and could only look at him anxiously.
"She probably didn't ask you to come here for help." Ivan said.
"Great Elder, please let bygones be bygones--" Came and his sister became anxious when they heard this.
"Alright." Ivan interrupted him and explained very bluntly: "Your grandmother's intention is actually very simple. She wants you to come to me for protection so that you won't be harmed by Dean Wakin in the future. If his strength improves further, I am the only one among you who can give him protection."
"this--"
The two of them were just overwhelmed by the emergency situation before. Now think about it carefully. Grandmother knows their relationship with the Great Elder, and also knows the relationship between the family and the Great Elder. And it just so happens that the two of them escaped. Isn't this what it means?
With the protection of the Great Elder, they can live a good life in Dongdu and have the opportunity to recover Lydia's family in the future.
If the Great Elder were invited to the Bloody Corridor, the previous friendship would be exhausted in this way, which was obviously something that the grandmother and other elders did not want to see.
Thinking of this, Cam and Heidi were stunned and seemed a little at a loss.
"But - Lydia's family - what about Lydia's family?" After a long pause, Camille said in a lost voice.
Seeing him move, Heidi next to him wanted to grab her brother. She stretched her hand into the air, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. She could only stand there dejectedly.
"You spent quite a while here. To be frank, are you sure that Thousand Lights City still existed after all this time? I'm sure Mond has also heard what your grandmother said."
Ivan definitely didn't have any good feelings towards Lydia's family, so there was naturally no reason for him to go all the way to save them.
"Great Elder, aren't you the great elder of the Mona Ant Farm Hut? There are quite a few wizards from the academy inside. Please go and take a look." Heidi begged.
"Mond is still the dean of the academy. Besides, you should all do this voluntarily. No one is forcing you." Ivan said lightly.
When the academy encountered a major crisis, people from three families ran the fastest, and many of them suddenly disappeared.
Now, Mond summoned them casually, and all of them returned to Qianguang City, without missing a single one. Who would still care about the academy and its regulations? It was all their own fault.
"Great Elder, please go to Qianguang City." Kamei had adjusted his mood and repeated his sister's words with a serious look.
"Have you thought about it?"
"Ah."
"Okay, let's go there." For Cam's sake, Ivan decided to set off early and stop by Thousand Lights City in the Blood Corridor to see what happened to the bases of Lydia's three families.
However, wizards' feelings are more distinct than those of ordinary people.
After he took action this time, all he would give to the siblings would be occasional care, not protection. This was Cam's own choice, and he couldn't blame anyone else.
Soon, the Lanque sailed out of the Xunmu Tower again and flew towards the outside of Dongdu.
There were two more teams on the airship, one from the Abnormal Biological Monitoring and Investigation Institute, and the other from the "Black Prison", both of whom were invited by Ivan.
Needless to say, the former is a direct subordinate agency of the China Tower United Council, responsible for investigating abnormal creatures, and its investigations are generally open to the outside world.
The Black Prison, also known as the 'Abnormal Wizard Monitoring and Investigation Institute', is undoubtedly aimed at wizards within the organization. Many wizards don't even know about the existence of this organization, and those who know about it must be afraid of it.
In fact, the Black Prison has more authority than the Biological Research Institute. It is directly under the jurisdiction of the Berta Supreme Council, which means that it can report to the emperor.
For the Black Prison, Lydia's family affairs happened to be within the scope of their duties, otherwise even Ivan, a great scholar, might not be able to be invited.
With the intervention of the Black Prison, no matter what the final result is, it will be an explanation to the Cam siblings.
"Boom."
On the Lan Que, the door that had been closed for a long time opened from the inside, and Camille and Heidi walked out.
At this moment, there was fatigue that could not be concealed in the eyes of the two people, as well as a hint of excitement.
As soon as the airship left Dongdu, the two were called in for questioning by Warden Agni of the Black Prison. They didn't come out until more than half an hour later, and no one knew what they went through in there.
"You don't have to tell me about the Black Prison." Seeing the two people approaching him, Ivan reminded them first.
"Great Elder, thank you very much." Camille and Heidi bowed to him.
The two men knew that without the intervention of the Great Elder, the Black Prison would most likely not care about what was happening in the Bloody Corridor. Even if they did, they would not send a Level 2 wizard to lead the team so quickly.
The fact that Black Prison took over means they will not give up easily.
"There's no point in saying more. You need to be mentally prepared." Ivan was not optimistic about the situation in Qianguang City.
After hearing his words, the two fell into a long silence.
The Lan Que was sailing rapidly in the sky.
Ten days later, the Lan Que arrived at the Blood Corridor and soon came to the base of the three families - Qianguang City.
Qianguang City is called "The Light of a Thousand Towers" by the people of the three families. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it can also indirectly illustrate the large number of towers and the prosperity of the city.
"I'm late!"
However, the Qianguang City before them had completely fallen into ruins. Blood stains could be seen everywhere in the ruins, some of which had begun to turn black, and the air was filled with an extremely strong fishy smell.
This was expected, and Mond had to guard against Ivan's arrival.
"Mr. Marichatton, could you please check the remaining traces of the formation to see if you can find anything useful?" Warden Agni ordered someone unceremoniously.
"No problem. There is no record of such a bloodline formation in the guild." Ivan did not refuse.
In the following time, he only checked the remnants of the formation, but the formation had obviously been processed and nothing valuable could be seen.
Other aspects were investigated by the Black Prison and the Abnormal Biological Monitoring and Investigation Institute, so he did not ask about them.
Ivan felt somewhat sad that the three once powerful families had fallen to this state.
