Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 1957: Chapter 1958: The Optimal Solution

Unless there is a mysterious object like the Mystery of the Stars from prophecy or a legendary level Prophet Wizard, only then can he truly be found.

Angel doesn’t believe they have a mysterious object like the Mystery of the Stars. If they did, why send people to locate City Lord Rosen’s position in the first place? Besides, given the destructive nature of the Seed sect, if they truly obtained such a mysterious object, the Origin World would have already descended into chaos. A fanatical sect versus a sect that can foresee the future are two different response levels.

Therefore, it is impossible.

As for a legendary level Prophet Wizard, Angel is not afraid. When refining Blood Night Shelter, because it was under the gaze of the Thief of Time, it gained a special effect: ”Even the gaze of a Legendary Level loses its effectiveness before you. One-time effect.”

Therefore, a legendary Prophet Wizard needs to make two prophecies to locate him.

Angel doesn’t believe that currently, he amounts to enough for the Seed sect to invite a legendary wizard for two consecutive prophecies.

The Seed believers likely don’t have him in their sights. At most, they hold a faint grudge, and under these circumstances, they shouldn’t be willing to exert full effort to stir up trouble.

In Angel’s view, the best solution now is to temporarily avoid the sharp edges.

Frost has often said that the Seed believers are a bunch of madmen. They do not fear death, believing that entering the chaotic rhythm of Seed will grant them protection... Whereas normal people, if they end up confronting them, must either be strong enough to annihilate them instantly or else watch them enter the chaotic rhythm of Seed one by one before you, with any carelessness dragging you in as well.

Seed is an unsolvable chaotic object. Seed believers can be ignorant and fanatical, but others cannot.

Entering the rhythm of Seed almost signals death.

Hence, the best choice when dealing with this group of lunatics from the Seed sect is to avoid contact as much as possible.

If really targeted, unless it’s reached a point of no return, it’s best to evade them.

Even the legendary Mystic Hunter like Frost says so. Angel, a mere shrimp in the long road of wizards, naturally understands what he should do.

However, Angel thought: he can temporarily evade, but what about the Barbarian Cave? In the future fragment seen by Dororo, the Seed believers even clashed with Sanders, and in the end, were driven away... Given the Seed sect’s usual craziness, there might be retaliation?

Angel expressed his thoughts and worries.

After listening, Rhein said: ”The true extent of Seed’s power is still unknown to us, but if it can make your Frost wary, then it should be significant. Therefore, your choice to avoid conflict with Seed is correct.”

Rhein was initially worried that Angel might be too young and reckless, but it turns out he is more mature than Rhein imagined.

”As for potential conflict with the Barbarian Cave, you don’t need to worry. Even if conflict arises, there’s nothing to fear. The Barbarian Cave has endured for millennia; they have deep roots. Moreover, having learned about this from Dororo ahead of time, our handling and response will be more fluid.”

”Furthermore, the appearance of Seed believers in the Southern Domain is not just an issue for the Barbarian Cave alone. The fear they caused in Sky Mechanical City has already entered everyone’s view. By then, the entire Southern Domain Wizard World will surely unite against Seed, with even the Extreme Sect joining in. In this situation, Seed believers will ultimately be driven out of the Southern Domain.”

If they were merely a demon sect, the Wizard Realm might not act in unison. But the Seed sect, which erodes human pillars of power and whose gains cannot be obtained by others, always poses a threat ready to backfire, inevitably becomes a common adversary.

Faced with the converging tide of thoughts in the Southern Domain, including the expulsion by World Will, their eventual fate is sealed.

”I understand.” At this moment, Angel also agreed with Rhein’s words. He only needs to slightly evade, and the upper levels will naturally handle the rest.

Having got this news from Dororo, although it wasn’t great, Angel felt somewhat relieved.

Even if spotted by Seed, he had already sensed it; otherwise, he wouldn’t have changed his appearance.

As of now, as long as he slightly evades Seed, his safety and freedom won’t be significantly impacted.

...

”Besides, is there any other prophecy?” With the Seed matter temporarily set aside, Angel looked yet again at Dororo through the light screen.

Dororo hesitated.

This hesitation provided some clues for everyone. It seems Dororo still has prophecies?

”I saw another scene, though Pat had not appeared in the scene, I felt it might be related to him...”

After a while, after putting away the mini signal tower, Angel and the others walked through the long corridor to the relic’s door.

”It’s this door.” Tree Spirit looked at the slightly weathered door.

The door is made of some kind of metallic demonic material, with some interrupted patterns below—these are defensive and mechanism magic patterns, which are not activated. These are the relic’s original magic patterns, but later to ease entrance and exit the mechanism’s magic patterns on the door were shut down.

”When sealing the relic, I tried to reopen the magic patterns on the door but failed to activate them, it seems they were broken, so I didn’t bother... Is the answer really here?”

Angel checked and said, ”The reason Tree Spirit couldn’t activate the magic patterns on the door, is because some of the magic patterns are damaged and need repair.”

”However, not many are broken, probably won’t take long to fix.”

Rhein nodded: ”Then you repair first, see if this is the location Dororo mentioned, and I’ll take everyone else back to the Barbarian Cave.”

Rhein, although he also wants to promptly verify Dororo’s prophecy, needed to share today’s observations during the stargazing event with other wizards. Especially, a ticket booth from Peach Heart Theater falling into the neighboring Eternal Night Country provides an opportunity to act before other witcher organizations understand.

Rhein, Tree Spirit were first to leave, with Sanders the last to go. Before leaving, he signaled Angel to enter the Wilderness of Dreams later.

Angel roughly guessed Sanders’ intention, likely to discuss the subsequent opening of the Wilderness of Dreams.

Once the pitch-black corridor was left with Angel alone, his gaze once more fell on the door.
