Chapter 170: The Magic Stone Mine, Space Gate, and Legendary Creatures

Harof, Aurora, and Victorio arrived at the scene early and, after checking on Fayz's injuries, their expressions became somewhat grave.

The atmosphere at the scene was heavy, and the onlooking wizards were all anxious.

"Chairmen, how is Lord Fayz doing?" a wizard from the Shaping School asked eagerly.

Harof did not respond, while Aurora looked at the anxious wizards gathered here and said, "While he is not lightly wounded, his life is not in immediate danger. He just needs some time to recover."

Upon hearing this, the wizards present breathed a sigh of relief, their tense nerves relaxing slightly. However, they were still eager to know who or what could have injured Fayz, a legendary wizard.

The legendary wizards did not explain further and, together, used magic to return Fayz to his wizard form. They then summoned the best magical healer to take him for recuperation.

After all this, Harof turned to the members of the council, indicating that they should come to the Skyrealm tonight for the next meeting.

...

Late at night, on the top floor of the Sun Crown Tower, the meeting hall of the Skyrealm, 151 council members had gathered.

Compared to the lively and noisy morning scene, the meeting room was exceptionally solemn at this moment. Only a few members were whispering among themselves, and everyone wore expressions of concern and anxiety.

"Lord Harof, Lord Fayz's injuries can't be that simple, can they?" Ougust was the first to speak in the silence, and the other council members turned to Harof, waiting for his response.

"Indeed, Fayz is severely wounded this time. I've administered a Resurrection Elixir, but the situation is still not optimistic," Harof said, shaking his head with a sigh.

"So, what happened? Who attacked Lord Fayz..." Raphael asked in confusion. The only beings in the Wizard's Domain who could threaten a legendary wizard like Fayz were the other council members.

But then, as if suddenly remembering something, Raphael exclaimed, "Could it be a problem in the Magic Stone Mine?"

"Send who? Are you willing to go? That's no different from sending someone to their death."

The entire meeting hall descended into chaos, with council members splitting into two factions: those advocating immediate action to deal with the problem in the Magic Stone Mine and those who preferred a more cautious approach, investigating first and acting later.

Lynn did not participate in the discussion. He had just become a council member and was not familiar with the council's procedures. Besides, there was very little information available, and he couldn't think of a foolproof plan.

After an urgent consultation, Harof soon made a decision, opting for a decisive approach. He would lead a team along with the other two council members and bring nine alchemists skilled in the use of alchemy to ensure safety.

Harof was inspired by Lynn's theory of Universal Gravitation and thought they could set up an alchemical array to further restrict the peculiar space gate, preventing a recurrence of such a situation.

Thinking about it, Harof hesitated about whether to include Lynn in this mission, but after careful consideration, he decided against it. The situation inside the Magic Stone Mine was still unknown, and even Fayz had suffered severe injuries. The danger was evident, and Lynn, despite his deep knowledge of astronomy and gravitational theory, was just a regular wizard with limited self-defense abilities. In the face of danger, he might not even be able to resist.

"Ougust, in our absence, you will oversee the council's affairs," Harof ordered with solemnity.

"Thank you for your trust, Chairman!" Ougust placed his hand on his chest and respectfully bowed.
