Chapter 552
If Gabriel came to the Celestial Void Belt, it would be because he wanted to take full control of the place. Although it would be troublesome and ugly, it would not be serious. Vientiane did not care too much about it. The Holy Tower had already planned to hand over the colony to the free sorcerers when they first made the plan.
However, if Gabriel didn't come here, and his whereabouts were unpredictable, it meant something else. It was very likely that Gabriel was planning to betray the World of Mages.
"What did Lord Croft and Lord Laura say?"
"They can't track Gabriel. They can only prepare for the worst. Also, Metatro is under full surveillance. We tried our best to be as quiet as possible, but he is the most mysterious necromancer. It's hard to guarantee that he won't find out. " Wendy was very serious. In the sorcerers' world, the two lords had taken over the local supervision department. The Celestial Void Belt was very likely to be the center of conflicts and eruptions, so Wendy and Adam were in charge. She was under a lot of pressure.
Adam was silent for a moment, then he clicked on a huge panoramic map.
The edge of the Celestial Void Belt was almost completely repaired, so the exploration robots could leave the area and go further into the void. Not long ago, a message was sent back. "The exploration robots found a large plane community outside the Celestial Void Belt. It's about one-third the size of the Celestial Realm. There are three level-4 beings."
Vientiane said, "Outside the Demon-Sealing Abyss on the left arm? Impossible. Before I built the seal on the Demon-Sealing Abyss on the left arm, I investigated the surrounding area very clearly. There's no such plane community. "
Vientiane was very sure. Even though she had given up on the Demon-Sealing Abyss on the left arm, she had done her best work. If there was such a civilization nearby, she would have contacted them first. She would have driven them away or even subdued them, but she would never have allowed them to grow freely.
As for the possibility that they appeared later, it was even more impossible. It would take a long time for them to evolve to such a powerful level.
Wendy stepped forward and carefully read the map and the information sent back by the robots. She was puzzled. "Abyssal beings? It's very strange. The abyssal races rarely form orderly societies. Their roots of life are engraved with the elements of chaos. In the same area, more than one level nine abyssal race can never coexist peacefully. "
"Indeed, it's impossible. The most suspicious thing is that they're moving towards the Celestial Spirit Belt at a constant speed. They're very likely being controlled by someone."
"You mean Gabriel?"
"Not necessarily. Although the Abyssal Tribe isn't weak, they are definitely no match for a Celestial Archmage, nor are they worthy of a Celestial Archmage's attention. It's unlikely that Gabriel's target is them. Compared to him, I think this is Metatro's doing, "Adam said.
Wendy was puzzled. "Metatro? Why? Now, it seems that he and Gabriel are allies. What good would it do him to lead an Abyssal to attack an area that is destined to be Gabriel's territory? "
This was indeed the most puzzling point. When Adam first received this information, he was also deeply puzzled. It was only after he changed his train of thought that he felt that he could explain it a little more clearly.
"If we first assume that Gabriel wants to betray the World of Sorcerers, everything will make sense." Adam did not care how shocking it was to say that a Celestial Archmage wanted to betray the World of Sorcerers. He continued, "If he wants to betray the World of Sorcerers, he's definitely not strong enough. The Holy Tower is strong enough to eliminate him. Besides, if he's alone, even if he betrays the World of Sorcerers, he'll just be a wandering creature in the void."
"Then, we can continue to assume that he needs more people. But I believe that most Sorcerers will not agree with him and will not betray the World of Sorcerers with him. Therefore, if he wants more people, he must start a war. Only a large-scale war can draw more Sorcerers out of the World of Sorcerers and into the quagmire. "
Wendy interrupted Adam. "But so what? Even if Sorcerers leave the continent en masse, they will still be closely connected to the Magic Net. The Magic Net can't do anything to Celestials, but it has absolute authority over those below Celestials. How can he convince the army to follow him? This is betrayal, not encroachment. No one can't see the difference between the two. "
Adam nodded. "You're right, but this is not unsolvable. He definitely has the ability to cut off the connection between Sorcerers and the Magic Net. As for how to convince Sorcerers and how to control them after the connection is cut off, I'm guessing that it's the Path of Gods. In a belief system, the number of believers and the quality of each believer determines the limit and purity of the power provided to the Gods. Perhaps he needs high-quality believers like Sorcerers to continue increasing his strength. "
Wendy shook her head repeatedly. "Impossible, absolutely impossible. The Path of Gods cannot be recognized by the World of Sorcerers. When he advanced to Celestial, all the Celestials witnessed it. Although I don't know what his knowledge is, if he used the Path of Gods to advance, he would definitely be killed on the spot."
Wendy felt that Adam's words were too ridiculous. She believed that Adam had been confused by his preconceived notion of Gabriel's betrayal.
Adam continued, "What if he has already established a Divine Kingdom in an unknown Void zone, worships himself as a God, and has a Path of Gods body that is not inferior to his current strength?"
"This … This …" Wendy was at a loss for words.
Adam took out two other documents. "This is the result of an in-depth investigation of the Mortal War. Everything is clear, except for one point. The origin of the Path of Gods staff has always been unknown. Do you still remember what Gabriel did to his own forces before we left? This is their current situation report. Some of the direct participants have already been dealt with, and the monitoring Sorcerers have not been able to find any clues. They can only be transferred to other financial groups based on their connections. "
"But, the Path of Gods …"
"Your sister and Avril are secretly investigating this matter. I believe there will be a result soon."
Vientiane had been listening to the conversation without saying a word. Only now did she speak. "Two questions. First, should I continue to accept Metatro's funding to establish the central hub? Second, once the war really begins, what should I and my people do? " Vientiane did not want to be involved in the internal war of Sorcerers at all. The current strength of the Celestials was not enough to participate in a battle of this level. It was very likely that they would be wiped out.
Adam turned to look at her. Just as he was about to speak, a call from the highest authority in the magic network directly connected to the tower.
