The news of Fiona's reappearance surprised Marquis de Winter.
In fact, since the attack on the Pamir Academy, Fiona has been missing from the outside world. The two major families of Olivendi and Alfred, as well as other major forces in the empire, have also been 'persistently'
Find someone.
But neither the two major families nor people from other forces gained anything.
The opponent's final whereabouts lead to a long-destroyed secret underground building. It seems that a ninth-level war broke out there, and all traces have been erased by the aftermath.
As for the predictions made by high-level prophets about his final whereabouts, either there was no visible result, or they directly predicted the Olivendi family's Moonrim Castle and the secret realm.
Obviously, the other party used some means to obscure the fate and interfered with the prediction results of many prophets.
At this moment, seeing Fiona's figure appear in the dream world, Marquis Winter suddenly understood the 'truth' of the matter.
So that’s it, no wonder no one can find her, it turns out that she fell into a deep dream world!
In the vast sea of deep dreams, if you look for a person without any trace, it would be strange to find him.
As for the reason why those prophets cannot predict the whereabouts of the other party, it is better to explain. The deep dream world is a place that ninth-level people must explore carefully, and the spells that cover those eighth-level prophets are even easier.
If you accidentally predict some strange existence, even the prophet himself will be in danger!
After figuring out the cause and effect, ecstasy followed.
Fiona Olivendi, the existence of the suspected [Star] in the prophecy! The object that the two families are looking for at all costs! According to his secret information, even the imperial royal family secretly arranged for more than one ninth level to search for her.
whereabouts!
Now, the target that so many forces are paying close attention to has been found first by him, Dalton Winter!
He was very curious, what kind of terrifying secret was hidden in this girl? Is it worth using such power by the royal family to find her?
"By the way, is there anyone from the [Circle of Truth] near her?"
But at this time, Marquis de Winter suddenly remembered a rumor whose authenticity could not be determined: 'Fiona Olivendi was suspected to have been taken away by someone from the Circle of Truth.'
Somewhat worried about this, Marquis de Winter asked.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty the Marquis? What is the 'Circle of Truth' you are talking about?"
Hearing Marquis de Winter's question, Linna asked in confusion.
Unlike other trialists, when she was weak, Linna used her [Dream Eater] ability to completely devour a dream world that existed in the continent of Yal by coincidence, and gained control of the opponent's body.
Therefore, she can control the body on the continent of Yar through a method similar to sleepwalking.
In order to gain stronger power, she voluntarily became a subordinate of Marquis de Winter and gained resource support from him, and then gradually became one of the five trial giants.
However, in recent years, because she has been exploring and challenging the trial world in the inheritance land, she has not heard of the glorious deeds of the Circle of Truth.
"Oh, the Circle of Truth is a special resistance organization that emerged recently. It harmed a large number of ninth-order people during the Sky City incident. Its purpose is to revive the glory of the ancient magic empire. The organization's emblem is a special ring pattern..."
Recalling the experience of his subordinate, Marquis Winter briefly described what the Circle of Truth was.
"...It is indeed an astonishing terrorist force, but I have not noticed any existence related to it here."
After listening to Marquis Winter's introduction, Linna shook her head. In the past few days since entering this world, she has not seen any suspicious existence, nor has she seen similar patterns.
"Well, it's a good thing that there are no abnormalities, but don't be careless. I will arrange for my group of enshrining mages to go and cooperate with you..."
But as he spoke, Marquis de Winter suddenly changed his mind.
"No, I'll go there myself!"
If the other party is the 'star' in the prophecy, then in addition to secrets, the other party may also have strong luck. If his subordinates act alone, they may fall short at the last moment.
Only as a ninth-level person, he can hope to forcibly interfere with destiny and truly control the opponent.
At this time, in the dream world, Avis still didn’t know that Marquis de Winter had set his sights on Fiona.
The other party just had an idea, and until there was no real threat to him, his passive prediction would not react.
Due to Fiona's rules sandbox, he could clearly see the movements of the group of trialists.
The black area represented by Lilith of Lust has almost collapsed at this moment, and now those people seem to be running towards his clone again.
This is not possible. The clone of Dark Tidis still has a great effect on him and cannot be destroyed so easily in the hands of these testers.
Watching the specific positions of many of his own trialists, Avis remotely controlled the Titus clone, put away his own dark palace body, left a large dark area in place to confuse the opponent, and directly concealed his own aura. Ran away.
Moreover, he did not just look for a random direction, but went straight to a place where Lilith was suspected to be hiding.
He had just seen clearly that after the black area represented by Lilith collapsed, new black spots suddenly appeared in several places where there were no nightmare spirits.
Anvis wasn't sure if there was any trace of the other party here, but he would always find her if he searched one by one.
He also received the invitation from the Black Abyss of Despair, but now he plans to 'visit' Lilith first to see if he can take the opportunity to control her.
At this moment, Lilith, who was desperately trying to escape, had already hid in a cave in a hidden valley.
Now she is at her weakest after becoming the Fourth Nightmare. She can no longer even maintain the powerful adult dream demon posture, and can only barely return to the little dream demon form when she was just transformed into the nightmare spirit.
Touching the pair of small horns on her head and the small purple wings on her back, Lilith gritted her teeth.
"Damn, damn, damn! Those abominable! Despicable trialists! Sooner or later, Lady Lilith will bite you to death one by one! No, I will turn you into perverts who can only be in love with the dragon itself!"
But when she was viciously planning how to torture and deal with the trialists who sneaked up on her, a regular knocking sound suddenly came from outside the cave where she was hiding.
“Knock, knock, knock—”
"Hello, is anyone here?"
Lilith was stunned for a moment, and then a warning sign suddenly appeared.
This is a cave, not a hotel. How could someone knock on the door?
Moreover, she couldn't feel any breath outside the cave!
Concentrating her breath with all her strength, Lilith held her breath and made no sound.
She comforted herself that this might be some kind of abnormal phenomenon in this dream world, and danger might appear soon. And it was not that she had no ability to fight back, she just didn't want to take action in order to avoid worsening the injury.
For a moment, there seemed to be no response, and the sounds outside the cave fell silent.
Seeing that no other changes occurred for a long time, Lilith slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps it was her psychological effect, but for some reason, the light in cave i seemed to be darker now.
Wait, darkness?!
A chilling thought flashed through her heart like thunder, and Lilith showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and turned around slowly.
A black figure wearing a pure black cloak, with the bottom of the hood as deep as a bottomless abyss, appeared there at an unknown time.
"Hello, dear Lilith! As one of the four nightmares, when I heard the news that you were injured, I immediately put down what I was doing and came to 'visit' you! How are you, are you touched or not?!"
Looking at the petite incubus in front of him with fearful eyes, the darkness on Anvis's face rolled slightly, like a smile.
I don't dare to move at all...
Lilith swallowed, reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth, and secretly sensed her surroundings, finding that she was completely shrouded in darkness.
