Thousand Pools World,
Since Atomic Control and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard left to carry out their mission, the Returning Breath World did not seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to invade again, which disappointed the Interstellar Wanderer Stigmata Wizard, who had prepared many defensive measures.
He was very clear about the captain's mission: to destroy the Forest Farm World and kill a relatively strong Level-Four Lord of Souls who had suddenly appeared.
In his understanding, such a mission was not difficult at all, and it should be easy for a captain who could blow up a Death Star to complete the mission.
And they did indeed see information about the destruction of the Forest Farm World in the Fate Wizard Book. They originally thought that the captain and Golden Eye Piercing Illusions would return soon, but five years have passed and they still haven't returned.
He tried to contact other Stigmata Wizard to find the two men's whereabouts, but ultimately failed to obtain any accurate information.
I only obtained vague information about the possibility of Supreme Lord appearing in the Forest Farm World from a relatively familiar Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard.
According to that Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard, the Forest Farm World was destroyed by a single blow from a suddenly appearing Supreme Lord.
As for whether this Supreme Lord came from the Returning Breath World or the Wizard World, he couldn't be sure.
Upon hearing this news, the Interstellar Wanderer's heart sank. The Supreme Lord destroyed the Forest Farm World could never be from the Wizard World.
If it were the Supreme Lord of the Wizard World who were to take action, then there would be no need for the captain and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard to carry out the mission; any Supreme Lord could easily destroy a small world.
Therefore, only the Supreme Lord of the Returning Breath World can take action!
'The captain and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard's whereabouts have been leaked.'
This is the only information the Interstellar Wanderer could glean from their limited intelligence: both the captain and the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard pose a significant threat to the Returning Breath World. They are consistently on the kill list, beings the Returning Breath World is determined to eliminate at any cost.
Finding a sure-kill opportunity is difficult even on ordinary days, so the most reasonable explanation is that the Supreme Lord received the information and acted immediately.
Just as the Interstellar Wanderer were filled with worry, a spatial portal appeared on the mothership's deck, and the Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard, wielding Godslaying Staff and with a sullen Yaoyao perched on his shoulder, stepped out from beneath a black, semi-illusory wizard's robe!
"Captain, you're back."
The moment the Interstellar Wanderer saw Leo, the gloom on his face vanished. He had just been worried about his captain, but now his captain appeared before him unharmed.
"Has the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard returned?" Leo asked the approaching Interstellar Wanderer.
Leo's question stumped the Interstellar Wanderer: "Didn't he go on a mission with you, Captain? He hasn't come back."
"They haven't returned yet," Leo said, his brow furrowing slightly, his face showing concern. "I understand. I'll contact the War Command first, and we'll discuss the rest later."
Interstellar Wanderer watched the captain enter the mothership, his heart, which had just settled, leaped into his throat again.
An unexpected situation has occurred.
Leo and Yaoyao exchanged a glance after entering the mothership, but neither of them said anything.
Leo immediately took out the Fate Wizard Book and contacted the War Command again.
[I have safely returned to the Thousand Pools World, but the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard has not returned. I suspect he encountered an accident.]
The War Command quickly replied to Leo.
War Command: [Based on the energy dissipation at the scene and information confirmed from within the Returning Breath World, the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard died in the Forest Farm World, murdered by their Supreme Lord.]
Leo: [At the time, we were carrying out the mission to destroy the Forest Farm World separately, and we weren't together. When the Supreme Lord attacked, there was no time to reunite, and we could only escape for our lives.]
Leo: [I bear an inescapable responsibility for the death of the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard, and I am willing to take that responsibility.]
War Command: [No compensation is needed. It's already a miracle you came back alive. No one expected Supreme Lord to suddenly intervene. You have completed the mission to destroy the Forest Farm World. Your mission achievements will be recorded in your Fate Wizard Book later.]
Leo: [Thank you.]
Looking at the brief report in the Fate Wizard Book, and knowing that the War Command had already determined the cause of death of Golden Eye Piercing Illusions and had not asked any further questions, Leo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Golden Eye Piercing Illusions was not a torn soul clone, but merely an energy clone; otherwise, he would have had to expend considerable effort to kill the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard.
After being controlled by the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions' Eye of Destruction Sacrifice Technique, his mind completely stagnated.
It seemed like only a moment had passed, but upon waking up in the Shadow Plane, he learned from Black Soluo that five years had actually gone by.
Cosmic-level treasures are truly terrifying. Just a fraction of their power caused him to stagnate for five years. If it weren't for the Shadow Plane, he wouldn't know how he would have survived those five years.
The moment Leo awoke, he left the Shadow Plane, randomly found a meteorite to contact the War Command, lied that he was seriously injured and unconscious, and asked the War Command to open an ultra-long-distance spatial teleportation for him to return to the Thousand Pools World.
This was the first time he had been hit by a weakened version of a cosmic-level treasure, and he truly felt the power of such a treasure. No matter how many methods he had, he was powerless to resist.
The traces of war in the Forest Farm World were completely destroyed by the attack from the Supreme Lord summoned by Black Soluo, and Golden Eye Piercing Illusions died directly at Black Soluo's hands.
Regardless of the circumstances, even if the Supreme Lord Eye of Destruction came in person, Leo was certain he wouldn't find any evidence that he had directly killed the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard.
As for whether that Supreme Lord would believe that it really had nothing to do with him, unless he was a fool, he would absolutely not believe it.
He knew better than anyone what he wanted to do. Having killed so many Elemental Body Refinement Wizard, how could it be such a coincidence that an attack from Supreme Lord occurred while he was plotting against him?
The Stigmata Great Wizard of the War Command might believe that Golden Eye Piercing Illusions died from an attack by the Supreme Lord, and they might believe the reasons they fabricated, but the Supreme Lord would never believe it.
At the moment of Golden Eye Piercing Illusions's death, he had already completely offended the Supreme Lord Eye of Destruction, and he also knew the truth that the latter had harmed many Elemental Body Refinement Wizard.
This is a huge grudge!
Faced with absolute power, all excuses and reasons are utterly useless. Now, all we can do is hope that the Supreme Lord Eye of Destruction still wary of the rules of the wizard civilization and will not directly attack him, giving him some time to grow.
Supreme Lord Eye of Destruction really couldn't resist taking action personally, Leo wouldn't even have the chance to wander the universe.
Thinking back on what Golden Eye Piercing Illusions had said, Leo still felt a chill run down his spine. A Supreme Lord revered by countless wizards had actually been using wizards for experiments behind the scenes, and had even sent his clones to capture Elemental Body Refinement Wizard everywhere.
That's absolutely insane!
While Leo was filled with trepidation, fearing that the Supreme Lord Eye of Destruction personally attack him, nothing happened. It was as if the death of the Golden Eye Piercing Illusions Stigmata Wizard was just a simple matter, no different from the death of a normal Level Four Stigmata Wizard in battle.
The death of Golden Eye Piercing Illusions in the Fate Wizard Book was merely a simple notification, and that was it—not even a ripple.
The only difference is that Leo's Fate Wizard Book has 500 more battle merits, which are from destroying the Forest Farm World.
In the time that followed, he seemed to have been forgotten. While wars raged in other War World, only his place remained eerily quiet.
Taking advantage of this period when no one was paying attention, Leo increased the ecological restoration of the Thousand Pools World, and everything was almost the same as before.
"Great Lord of the Universe, the Snow Elf Atiya has encountered difficulties and seeks great assistance. I am unable to give a precise answer, and I humbly request guidance from the Great Lord of the Universe."
After hearing the voice of the little red snake Tortai in his mind and entrusting him with the task of communicating with the Snowfield World, Leo hardly inquired about it.
They quickly entered the Shadow Plane and arrived at the location where 4741 shadows were placed. Yaoyao was not there; the ecological restoration of the Thousand Pools World was progressing slowly, and he had gone to supervise the work.
The little red snake Tortai respectfully lay on the ground, welcoming the arrival of the great Lord of the Universe.
Leo reached out and touched the shadow connecting to the Snow Elf Atiya; sounds and videos appeared in his mind.
"Great Lord of the Universe, the devout Atiya begs for your help. My cowardly chieftain, in an attempt to suppress me, has forced me to face an enemy twenty times my number."
"He told me that if I could win, I would have the right to compete for the position of clan leader, but he has secretly made a deal with the evil creatures of the Black Domain World to ambush and kill me on the battlefield."
"For the sake of our Snow Elf race, I cannot die. I beg the great Lord of the Universe to help me."
Inside the simple room, Atiya, Snow Elf with mid-level level three strength, was kneeling on the ground, her blood, glowing white, dripping continuously into the shadows.
"My poor child, how do you want me to help you?"
"Do you want me to help you advance to the third level of the limit and defeat all enemies with your unparalleled strength, or do you want me to help you find an Invincible army to defeat your enemies, or even help you kill your clan leader and make you the new clan leader?"
"I..."
Upon hearing Leo's reply that he was willing to help, the Snow Elf Atiya's face lit up with uncontrollable joy, but after hearing the solutions Leo could offer, she hesitated.
Can I have both?
After hesitating for a moment, the Snow Elf Atiya tentatively asked.
Leo in the Shadow Plane laughed. He had once been a simple Snow Elf seeking to protect his fiancée, but now he had become so greedy.
They don't want to give up any of their strength, power, or military!
"Child, all transactions are based on equal exchange. Do you think you currently have enough resources to acquire so much power?"
"If you have enough resources, I wouldn't mind helping you fulfill your wish."
A hint of disappointment flashed across the Snow Elf. If all three conditions could be met, then he wouldn't have to worry.
