Chapter 117

Adam retracted all the electric elemental aura emanating from his body and constructed a magnetic field a few centimeters in front of his skin. After that, he looked like an ordinary person without any energy. He then flew at a low altitude towards the Devil.

The Devil dispelled its illusory body and turned into a life of will, becoming indistinguishable from the negative energy flowing between heaven and earth. After Adam came close, it pointed below and said, "This is the nearest settlement. I think I have to take back my words. If my hometown is like this, then I'd rather leave it."

The 'city' under his feet was the most dilapidated place Adam had ever seen in the Mage World. The loess houses and low walls, the shabbily dressed pedestrians, the filthy streets, the combination of various things evoked a scene deep in Adam's memory.

"Despair illusion?"

"Hmm? What? Forget it, master. Call me if you need anything. " After saying that, the Devil directly returned to Adam's mind. It was no longer interested in this dilapidated place.

Adam ignored it and compared the scene in front of him with his memory. He found that other than the loss of humanity caused by the magical creatures attacking the city, it was almost the same as the illusion he fell into more than ten years ago.

"If that's the case, the apprentices or official mages should be in the city lord's residence in the center." Adam thought as he landed not far from the city gate and walked into the city.

The guards at the gate crossed their swords and spears to stop Adam and shouted, "Stop, hand over the travel pass."

Of course, Adam did not have such things, but this could not stop him. The strong magnetic field shrouded the two guards. While they were confused, Adam had already entered the city.

How should the mission begin? This was an important question. Adam was not very clear about the difference in strength between himself and an official Anti-Mage. He needed to understand the situation first before deciding whether to attack or assassinate.

As for meeting up with the other apprentices as soon as possible to start working as a team, Adam did not have such thoughts.

The city was relatively peaceful, and the most basic business activities were still going on. No one dared to block Adam's path, and the passersby made way for him with fear on their faces. At first, Adam had some doubts, but when he saw his clothes, he came to his senses.

It was obvious that only upper-class people could wear clothes made of this material.

However, Adam did not change his mind. This misconception was more beneficial to his investigation.

Adam avoided the City Lord's Mansion at the center of the city. After circling around the city, he gave the evaluation that the city was too weak to withstand a single blow. Then, he casually sat down at a water stall by the street.

When the boss saw Adam, he was stunned for a moment. Then, with a plop, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. "Sir, I … I …" He was so scared that he didn't know what to say.

Adam had no intention of helping him up. He said directly, "I ask, you answer."

Unexpectedly, the boss quieted down and crouched on the ground, waiting for Adam's inquiry.

"Where is this place?"

"Sir, this place is called Koyin City."

The boss immediately shut his mouth after he finished speaking. Then, when he heard the word 'continue', he did not dare to raise his head. Cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he poured out all the information he knew. "This is Koyin City, south of Ceylon Island. I heard that my ancestors were not from here. They only came to Ceylon Island after my father. I don't know what the City Lord's name is. I only know that his surname is Amu, and that he is a mage."

After waiting for a while, he realized that there were no more questions, so he kowtowed again. "Sir, this is all I know. Really …" When there was no response, he finally mustered up the courage to raise his head. However, he found that Adam's figure had long disappeared.

"The Amu Family, huh? What a coincidence." Adam did not know whether to laugh or cry. Before this, he was chased to the point that he had nowhere to go. Now, he had infiltrated the Anti-Mage's island and became the hunter.

Adam scratched his head. The Death Mark that once existed in his soul had been completely canceled out by Ether's Gift several times. Now, he was standing within the Amu Family's sphere of influence, and no one could discover him.

Following that, Adam asked a few ordinary people in the city in the same way, and the information he obtained was more or less the same. However, regarding the Spell Caster level of the Orm clan, none of the ordinary people were clear about it. They only knew that it was very powerful and terrifying.

In the area ruled by the Anti-Mage, they and ordinary people were completely different classes. In order to enslave ordinary people, they would deliberately make themselves appear mysterious and terrifying. Under such circumstances, ordinary people would not be able to tell whether they were ruled by an apprentice or a mage. In any case, they were all equally terrifying to them.

"If that's the case, I can only go and test it out myself." Adam stood in a corner outside the City Lord's Mansion and said to the Devil.

The Devil felt as disgusted as if he had just eaten feces. You call this testing it out yourself?

"Master, I …"

"Hmm?" Adam looked at the Devil with cold eyes, and lightning flashed in his eyes.

"Sigh …" The Devil let out a heavy sigh. He fell to the ground and turned into a puddle of mist, slowly sneaking into the City Lord's Mansion.

Through the connection of the master-servant contract, Adam connected to the Devil's senses. Everything that the Devil saw was transmitted to his eyes in real time.

Just like in a despairing environment, the City Lord's Mansion was luxurious as if it was another world. The Devil hid in the shadows, sneaking from the outer layer to the center, not missing any corner. He discovered a total of ten energy reactions, and all of them were very weak. They were even weaker than Adam in the first year.

When he arrived outside a brightly lit house in the center, the Devil stopped. Through his consciousness, he said to Adam, "Master, there's a barrier here. I can't go in."

This was a type of barrier that he had never seen before. It didn't rely on runes, but on unknown casting materials. Adam didn't know if the Devil was immune to it, so he only ordered the Devil to stay outside. He could roughly read what was being said inside by reading the Devil's lips.

"… Alliance, Family, Order, Outsiders, Kill, Master Mage, Come, Mortals, all …"

Just then, a person walked out of the room. Adam hurriedly ordered the Devil to leave the City Lord's Mansion. The information he had just received was enough to deduce the general situation.

The forces on the enemy Mage Island seemed to want to join forces to deal with the Trial Apprentices, and there were no official Mages in Keyin City.

This was enough. Adam exhaled softly. The concealed Spiritual Energy and Elemental Aura bloomed, rising into the sky in the slightly tipsy night. The magnetic field instantly enveloped the City Lord's Mansion.

The mortals in the mansion screamed in pain. All the Apprentices with energy auras looked up at the sky at the same time. The barrier of the central house opened, and a few humans in luxurious clothes rushed out. The leader shouted, "It's the traitor! Stop him, kill him! Dwayne, inform the family immediately! "
