Linsey frowned.
Ever since meeting Bargett, he had known that Ke Saiwei Lait had come to the City of Law World, and that the other man was likewise investigating important matters such as the Abyss School and the Wizard's Tomb.
It was only natural for this upright old wizard to appear in this Under-lake World.
But for him to show up at such a critical moment was truly worrying.
"This source material is a wizard's art! He's fighting the Abyss School and those believers you mentioned!" Al judged from the side. "These intelligent Awakened have always stood on the side of justice. We can trust a wizard's power."
Clang—
As he spoke, Al swung his hoe down onto the ground before him.
Yet Linsey's survival tool did not produce its usual effect.
The Source Material Skill that fixed the earth in place conflicted with the Game Player's skill, and the soil did not turn into neat, square blocks.
But correspondingly—
The earth forming the cracks and holes was shattered by the blow, collapsing and ultimately revealing a semicircular pit filled with loose dirt.
Compared with normal pickaxe digging, the area destroyed was three or four times greater!
"Oh?"
Al raised his brows in surprise.
He looked at the unusual tool in his hand, confirmed that his earlier sensation had not been mistaken, and spoke to Linsey beside him in a more satisfied tone:
"So, we should focus on what's before us."
"Even among all Awakened, wizards are absolutely among the best. Once we deal with this place, we can go provide support."
Rota checked the situation on the map.
"Commander, after the seal was destroyed, those Shadows of the Past headed in different directions. The two sides must have suddenly run into each other while searching, which started the battle."
