Chapter 196: Dispelled Mist of Confusion

Chapter 196: Dispelled Mist of Confusion

The chaos within the walls of Greneir City persisted for a solid three days before finally subsiding.

The scope of the 'Apocalyptic Domain - Divine Land's Descent' was just too extensive. Though it hadn't reached its maximum yet, it had already enveloped nearly half of Greneir City. Add to that the shocking news of the legendary wizard Fayz's demise, and the entire Wizard City was thrown into turmoil.

Fortunately, the return of Harof and his allies stabilized the situation. The instigator, Ougust, had been locked away in the magic core, preventing the situation from worsening.

On the third night, within the dilapidated Sun Crown Tower, a meeting was once again convened in the celestial realm.

When Lynn arrived, the meeting room was already packed. He was surprised to find Rorl present. However, Rorl seemed somewhat dazed, sitting silently in a corner with magical restraints around his wrists.

As Ougust's disciple, Rorl had evaded a portion of the turmoil, untouched by the conflicts within the Sun Crown Tower. However, his awkward position led to his immediate incarceration upon rescue.

After enduring three days of interrogation and memory probing, Rorl's spirit had clearly reached its limit. But compared to this, the revelation of Ougust's true identity dealt a far deadlier blow...

While Lynn and others privy to the inside story, more members of the council were still clueless. As they entered, the room erupted with urgent inquiries.

"Chairman Harof, what's going on?" "Did Master Fayz really get assassinated?"

"I refuse to believe this was Master Ougust's doing. It must be a mistake... How could the Star Mage commit such an act..."

The entire chamber buzzed with noise. The news of the legendary wizard's death and the looming threat of the Apocalyptic Domain challenged everyone's capacity to bear it.

Moreover, the revelation that the mastermind behind everything was supposedly Ougust, the so-called Star Mage, was simply unbelievable!

"Everyone, please, some quiet!" Harof's grave voice resonated through the chamber. "This situation is far more intricate than you imagine, a result of my grave negligence. According to Rorl, the current Star Mage Ougust might not be the person you all think he is."

Harof's statement left the council members perplexed. "What do you mean, Chairman?"

Instead of continuing to explain, Harof turned to Rorl. Coming directly from Ougust's disciple, Rorl's account held more credibility.

Apart from Lynn, none of the council members had interacted with the church. Yet, they were acutely aware that the existence of the Wizard City was to resist the church's aggression.

Like a flock of trembling sheep barricaded within a fence to ward off external predators, they sought a fleeting sense of security.

This could only be described as humiliating. Previously, they had harbored similar sentiments, subtly resenting the council's timidity. However, this apocalypse sect incident was their first tangible encounter with the threat posed by the church.

Dark shadows cast over their minds...

"Esteemed Chairmen, permit me to ask, what is Kashimo's true objective?" Lynn, who had been silent until now, suddenly inquired.

Three days ago, after the assault on the Sun Crown Tower, Lynn vividly remembered Kashimo's grotesque smirk. Surely, he hadn't orchestrated such a grand affair just for simple destruction?

"It's likely to lift the legendary spell, 'Lost Mist'," Victorio spoke up first.

At that moment, everyone present grew tense. The 'Lost Mist,' shrouding the entire sea, dividing the Wizard City from the Secas Empire, was undoubtedly the most crucial barrier.

If this spell were dispelled, it would mean the imminent possibility of an assault by the church.
