Chapter 139: Two Epic Experts?

In the main hall of the royal palace in the Storm Empire, Harold had been very frustrated over the past half a month when he was fighting the Moulan Empire.

The Storm Empire’s famous wind-type elite mages in the central region were so vulnerable against the Moulan Empire’s mages who used the Philosopher’s Stone.

The tight situation at the front line gave him a headache. The most troublesome thing was that when Harold’s troops were killing the mages from the Moulan Empire who used the Philosopher’s Stone, they discovered that their corpses would actually disappear into thin air. Belek’s Philosopher’s Stone was secretly sent back to Mas by Belek at an astronomical price.

Just as he was frowning and could not think of a solution, he suddenly heard his subordinate report that Dyson had come with the Philosopher’s Stone that Belek had given him.

Upon hearing this news, Harold was overjoyed. Could it be that Master Mas had sent his disciple over because he had made some progress on the Philosopher’s Stone?

Seeing that Mas had not seen him for some time, Harold did not waste his breath and directly told Mas that the user’s corpse would disappear.

When Mas heard Harold’s words, his first reaction was to wonder if the disappearance of the corpse had something to do with the Philosopher’s Stone.

Of course, this was only Mas’ guess.

However, Mas felt that if the disappearance of the corpse really had nothing to do with the Moulan Empire, there was probably a third party behind it.

“Your Majesty, tell me. Is there anything I can help with?” Mas asked.

“Brother Dyson, there’s something that I need your help with!” Harold nodded.

“That day, at the auction hosted by Master Mas, a Legendary Ghost Witch came to see me. He told me that I don’t have to worry about gold coins when auctioning the two Storm Wolves. I can raise the price as I wish!”

“I hope that you can invite the Legendary Ghost Witch over, brother Dyson!”

“My son, Will, sensed powerful spirit power last night. However, there are no experts in the Moulan Empire who are good at spirits. I suspect that there is a third party behind this!” Harold said.

“I understand. I’ll return to the Alchemy Tower now!” Mas nodded.

However, at that moment, Mas saw a man surrounded by dark green souls descend from the sky above the palace. Who else could it be but Dick?

Mas looked surprised to see Dick.

Mas saw Dick give him a look and smiled apologetically at Harold as he and Dick walked into the room.

After closing the door, Mas looked at Dick and his face became serious. “Did something happen to the Alchemy Tower?” he asked in a low voice.

“Lord Mas, nothing happened to the Alchemy Tower!”

“I came to you this time because I have something important to tell you!” Dick said with a grave expression.

“Something important?”

“Tell me about it!” Mas said.

“Sir Mas, do you remember what I told you before? Because I cultivate spirit magic, I have a very strong perception of the spirit. I once sensed something that did not belong to this world and descended into this world,” Dick asked.

“I remember this!” Mas nodded.

“Just last night, I sensed two aura of spirits that don’t belong to this world appear near the Storm Empire!”

“That’s why I rushed here! I just wanted to inform Lord Mas to be careful. The two spirit auras that don’t belong to this world are very strong. They are both at the Epic stage!” Dick said with a heavy expression.

“Then can you still sense where they are right now?” Mas pressed.

Dick shook his head.

“I can’t sense them now. They must have blocked their auras!

“But according to my senses, the spirit auras appeared last night in this direction!” Dick pointed to his left.

Mas saw where Dick was pointing and thought for a moment. His face changed.

That was because the direction Dick was pointing in was the place where the Storm Empire and the Moulan Empire had their first probing battle not long ago.

Thinking back to what Dick had said, Mas suspected that the disappearance of the corpses on the battlefield had something to do with the two spirit auras that Dick had sensed last night.

“Could it be that the enemies of the alternate realms similar to the Burning Legion and the Undead Scourge have invaded?” Mas thought to himself as this thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

This matter was truly too strange.

The spirit aura of two Epic experts who did not belong to this world…

No matter how one looked at it, it was strange.

“Dick, don’t let anyone else know this!”

“Harold will need your help in a while to investigate the spirit auras of the two powerful individuals you sensed last night. Just do it perfunctorily!” Mas instructed Dick.

“Understood, Master Mas!” Dick nodded.

Now, Mas could not figure out what the two experts who did not belong to this world were planning.

He could not be sure if it was really an invasion from another world.

In the Moulan Empire, where the army was stationed, Gu Lanqi and his teacher led some guards to the vicinity of the battlefield yesterday.

Previously, Gu Lanqi had received a report from the soldiers that the corpses of the soldiers who had died near the battlefield were all gone.

This made him feel very uneasy.

“Teacher, did you find anything?” Gu Lanqi looked at the old legendary mage beside him and asked in a deep voice.

The old man shook his head slightly and said with a strange expression, “It’s too strange!”

“All the bodies disappeared overnight!”

“This is impossible, but yet it happened!”

“And more than forty thousand people died here yesterday!”

“With so many corpses, it would be impossible for the Storm Empire to clean them up overnight!”

“I have no idea what this is about!”

When Gu Lanqi heard the old man’s words, his smile became heavy.

“Teacher, are you saying that the disappearance of these corpses has nothing to do with the Storm Empire?” Gu Lanqi asked.

“Although I can’t be 100% sure, I’m confident that the disappearance of these corpses has nothing to do with the Storm Empire!” The old man nodded his head.

“Looks like there’s a third party hiding in the dark!”

“However, it’s strange. How did those guys make such corpses disappear overnight?”

“Although I did not send people to guard near the battlefield, there are still soldiers on night duty. There are so many corpses but the soldiers on night duty didn’t realize anything off. This doesn’t make sense at all! “Gu Lanqi was puzzled.

“Your Majesty,” said the old man, “I suggest you ask that Lord. Perhaps he knows something!”

“Looks like that’s the only way.” Gu Lanqi nodded and returned to the camp. He walked to the giant black steel cage.

Before he could even speak, a deep voice came from the giant black steel cage. “If you’re here to ask what happened last night, I’m not sure!”

When Gu Lanqi heard this, his expression changed slightly. “Lord, even you don’t know what happened?”

“I might be an Epic, but I’m not a God. I naturally can’t know everything!”

“The only thing I can tell you is that last night I sensed two auras no weaker than mine!”

“But they seem to be hiding, suppressing their aura!”

Hearing the words coming out of the huge black steel cage again, Gu Lanqi’s expression changed.

“Two Epic experts?”

“How is that possible?!”

“There are definitely no Epic experts in the Storm Empire. Who are they?”

“What does the disappearance of the corpses on the battlefield have to do with them?” Gu Lanqi’s face darkened as he thought to himself.
