Chapter 1172: 366. Vanished into thin air
As he delved deeper, Noland Lee felt the Assassin Angel harboring more speculations about his origins.
Despite being an angel of the Supreme Star Palace, the Assassin Angel was trapped in the Main Brain Controller and thus unable to sense the Fire of St. Dillan within the Inner Cosmos.
Then there was Noland Lee.
He too could not sense the Fire of St. Dillan, let alone draw from its luminous radiance.
A simple comparison between him and the Assassin Angel made it not difficult to conclude:
Noland Lee’s astral body also seemed to be sealed within some container in Outer Space, and what entered the Inner Cosmos was just a small part of his consciousness, just like the Assassin Angel.
...
This conjecture held a certain degree of credibility in the eyes of the Assassin Angel.
But from Noland Lee’s perspective, it was somewhat unbelievable.
The Assassin Angel knew exactly where its body was and in what state it existed, but Noland Lee? He was someone who diligently worked and lived life before crossing over; what did he have to do with “angels” or “deities”?
Nothing… right?
So in Noland Lee’s view, attributing his traversal event to gods or angels didn’t make much sense.
The Escape Core of the Plane had told Noland Lee before that the Plane Core behind him definitely had its own schemes and that Noland Lee might be able to leave the Inner Cosmos without its assistance.
Considering this, Noland Lee was more inclined to believe that his crossing-over event was a carefully planned endeavor by a hidden Plane Core.
He was just a chess piece.
This was the reason Noland Lee said that the truth might be too heavy for him to bear.
As for what the Assassin Angel understood from this statement, that was beyond Noland Lee’s consideration.

…
Two hours later, a certain location in the southern part of Alchemist Island.
Here on the southern coast of Alchemist Island, 3.0 kilometers away from Revival City in a straight line, it approached the extreme teleportation range of Denise Green.
The Land of Revival, where Revival City was situated, was a plain south of the Blade Mountain Range, and compared to the sea level on the south of Alchemist Island, the Land of Revival was a highland more than two hundred meters above sea level.
Along the southern coast, cliffs and the rocky beaches and sea surfaces below the cliffs could be seen everywhere.
This place, with its large elevation difference and constant storms, had sharp-edged rocks along the shore and was not utilized by Tatis to build seaports.
Noland Lee found a clifftop by the shore and carved out a cave using Earth Magic, to provide a foothold for Denise Green.
He settled Denise Green there, concealing the cave entrance with a Mechanos enchanted with Illusion Magic, and dispatched Nolin to control the Mechanos to guard Denise Green.
After forming a whole set of stable rear-area systemic arrangements, Noland Lee then returned alone to Revival City and settled in a pub outside the city.
At this particular time, Jay Spade and Paisi Dingda had already entered the city.
The two of them, along with other Light Wizards, were crammed into a Jewelry Workshop.
Paisi Dingda was sent by Elder Skimming Light and would, with Jay Spade’s help, enter the Undead Cult to repair their Soul Factory.
This was originally an extremely arduous task, with difficulties concentrated on how to gain the trust of the Undead Cult.
But now, all problems vanished like smoke with the arrival of that enormous gem box.
No one would turn down a large fortune, not even the undead.
Upon returning to his base, Jay Spade immediately locked a full 6000 Soul Gems in the Valuables Warehouse of the base.
This was a huge boost, but also a significant burden.
Jay Spade had to think of a way to quickly, efficiently, and securely buy the trust of the Undead Cult with this box of gems.
“Lamont, I need you to take two Light Wizards, disguise yourselves as Grey Wizards, and make contact with the Undead Cult,” Jay Spade summoned Lamont and two other Light Wizards into his Office Room.
He laid out his plans, hoping that Lamont, with several deals under his belt, could successfully complete the Task.
Lamont knew this was his chance.
Whether he could move up a notch from Sixth ring to Seven-Ring was dependent on this mission.
After focused contemplation, Lamont said:
“By the Name of Pure Light, I swear I will complete the Task with my companions!”
“Good! I trust in your abilities,” Jay Spade scanned the three Light Wizards sitting opposite him and said:
“As for the disguise subjects, do you have any good suggestions?”
The question was mainly directed at Lamont, for only he knew what kind of Grey Wizard the Undead Cult would be more likely to trust.
Lamont pondered for a moment and then said:
“Sir, we could disguise ourselves as Corpse Thieves…”
Lamont laid out both the difficulties and advantages of masquerading as Corpse Thieves.
Time flew by swiftly during their discussion, and before they knew it, late night had arrived.
The Light Wizards who were on shift did their duties, while those off duty took their rest.
Paisi Dingda, as an important guest, meditated in his Bedroom.
His bedroom was nextdoor to the Warehouse holding the gem box.
With his hearing and Energy perception ability, no noise from the Warehouse could escape his notice. noveldrama
“Click-click-click…”
A faint mechanical sound was heard as someone unlocked the enchanted mechanical lock of the Warehouse with a key.
Paisi Dingda closed his eyes, lay on his back on the bed in a meditative posture, but his attention shifted from meditation to the Warehouse.
Through his senses, Jay Spade, who was supposed to have started his meditation for the day, was slowly opening the great gate of the Warehouse, momentarily disabling the Guardian Magic Circle and Alarm matrix, heading towards the gem box.
