Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1956: Chapter 1957: Discovered

Suddenly, Dororo’s words caused everyone to instantly focus their eyes on Angel.

Apparently, Dororo meant to speak with Angel alone.

Normally, this wouldn’t have been an issue. But right now, the Controller of the Barbarian Cave, one of the three Ancestral Spirits, and Angel’s Mentor were all present. Dororo’s sudden request seemed like he was trying to make them leave.

Everyone’s expression turned a bit strange.

After all, Dororo had just provided significant information and he himself showed great potential. Although no one would be angry about it, they might feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Maya, feeling helpless, rubbed her temples and gave Dororo a reproachful glance, preparing to say something to ease the awkward atmosphere.

However, before Maya could speak, Angel preemptively asked, ”Is what you want to tell me related to the matter I entrusted to you before?”

Facing Angel, Dororo’s expression became noticeably more serious, even nodding with a certain firmness.

Upon receiving a definite answer, Angel’s eyes lit up: ”Did you see something?”

Dororo thought for a moment, then cautiously said, ”I saw some information about them.”

A smile appeared at the corner of Angel’s mouth: ”Then just say it outright, there’s no need to hide it; everyone here is already aware.”

After speaking, Angel looked at the others aside from Dororo and apologized, ”Before Dororo went to the Star-observing Day, I had asked him to help me check if anyone from Seed would target me secretly.”

These words served both to explain for Dororo and to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Tree Spirit paused for a moment, quickly understanding: ”You mean, he also foresaw that you would be targeted by Seed?”

Angel nodded; even if Dororo didn’t say anything, he would have asked privately.

”So, Dororo... saw information about Seed?” Tree Spirit’s face showed disbelief as he looked at Dororo, then at Maya, who also appeared shocked behind him.

Even Maya hadn’t seen it, but Dororo did?

While Tree Spirit was visibly astonished, Sanders quietly asked from the side, ”Did you tell Dororo about the Seed Sect?”

Angel shook his head: ”I didn’t tell him about the Seed Sect, just showed him the Seed emblem.”

Sanders’ eyes briefly revealed surprise as well. Dororo knew nothing about the Seed Sect except for an emblem and a vague ”Will they target Angel?” Yet Dororo still saw something?

Truly worthy of Baiyuan Clan descendant... after expressing his admiration in his heart, Sanders felt a sense of relief. Thankfully, Dororo stood on their side; moreover, Dororo bore strong markings from the Illusion Demon Island lineage, considering Angel as his mentor and the person he respected the most.

Illusion Demon Island lacked combat strength but needed functional figures; now with Angel suddenly emerging, along with Dororo, the prospects of Illusion Demon Island looked infinitely promising!

Rhein could see this angle, but he was pleased with such a development as well. Illusion Demon Island belonged to the Barbarian Cave; a stronger Illusion Demon Island was a blessing for the Barbarian Cave. Perhaps other factions within the organization might feel some apprehension, but that’s not a concern for now.

As everyone’s thoughts varied, under Angel’s clear indication, Dororo began to recount the scene he had witnessed.

”In the future scene, I saw the emblem that the lord showed me.”

Angel thought for a moment and decided to explain briefly: ”That emblem represents a force called Seed. Where did you see the Seed emblem?”

”Right in the Barbarian Cave.”

Dororo answered lightly, but it startled Tree Spirit: ”Seed members have come to the Barbarian Cave? Who are they? When will they appear, or have they already appeared?”

From Tree Spirit’s series of questions, it was clear he was genuinely shocked. In the Mirror World, he could observe the heavens and the earth; if Seed believers came to the Barbarian Cave undetected, that would be negligence on his part.

Angel also furrowed his brows: ”Did you see their appearances? Can you demonstrate it using the Light Shadow Technique?”

Dororo shook his head: ”They were all wearing cloaks with the Seed emblem, so I couldn’t see their appearances... In the scene I saw, they attempted to enter the Mirror World, but failed, resulting in a battle. Illusion Demon Lord also participated, though in the end, they lost and fled.”

Although Dororo spoke only a single sentence, the amount of information provided was substantial. However, no one pondered immediately and instead waited for Dororo to provide more clues.

Upon confirming that Seed believers hadn’t infiltrated, Tree Spirit breathed a small sigh of relief: ”When did they arrive?”

”I don’t know, but when they arrived, the outside world was a snowy plain.”

The Pamiji Plateau is snow-covered all year, but to become a vast snowy plain, it’s likely to occur only around the Twilight Month.

Currently, it’s a month and a half from the Twilight Month, which means if Dororo’s vision pertains to this year, the Seed people might appear in a month and a half? If later, could it coincide with the Tea Party?

”Apart from that, did you see any other clues?”

Dororo shook his head.

Although Dororo didn’t see much, from the little he did see, a lot of information could be deduced.

”There’s no doubt that Seed followers have indeed set their sights on you,” Rhein firmly said to Angel.

Seed followers wouldn’t come to the Barbarian Cave for no reason. Only two possibilities exist: either to spread their teachings and expand their believers — but the Barbarian Cave, situated in the desolate Pamiji Plateau, wouldn’t be an ideal location for spreading their faith — or they detected Angel from the previous Sky Mechanical City event.

”This counts as bad news. However, it isn’t entirely terrible. From what Dororo revealed, they are sending relatively powerful wizards, meaning they aim to use force as judgment against you.”

Angel continued from where Rhein left off, ”Using force implies they aren’t really paying attention to me. Since that’s the case, they won’t deploy the Arrow of the Defeated.”

To Angel, the Arrow of the Defeated was what he feared the most; he didn’t believe he could be as fortunate as City Lord Rosen.

Since the Arrow of the Defeated won’t be used, Angel had nothing to worry about.

Maybe Angel couldn’t handle strong Seed followers, but... he didn’t need to engage them directly. He just had to avoid Seed members slightly, and Angel didn’t believe they could find him.

Moreover, with Blood Night Shelter around.

Even a Prophet Wizard wouldn’t be able to pinpoint his location.
