YM778.TV Chapter 352 Terrible
Thyrus silently arrived at the vicinity of the First Tower…
In his current position, he should be able to see the tall and majestic Black Tower which is also the source of envy of many organizations.
Furthermore, he should be able to feel the gazes of the Sky Guards patrolling the surroundings of the Tower secretly.
However, he couldn\'t see any of that…
There are no guards spying on him and there is no Black Tower!
At first, he thought that this is just a trick used by Ignacy to hide the tower and the city surrounding it. He had previously heard that the Tower Masters were capable of using this special ability in case of emergency.
Based on what he heard from the old Archons in the First Tower, the second Tower Lord, or Ignacy\'s master, used this Stealth Ability to hide their city from Mythical Beasts.
This is also how he learned that a peak Mythical Beast can\'t be defeated even by the combined power of twenty Archons with Mage Tower boosting them.
Anyway, he felt that Ignacy just used this same trick to hide from something or someone…
However, as he got nearer and nearer, he realized that there is actually a crater about 100 meters deep in the previous location of the First Black Tower!
"W-what\'s going on? Is this an explosion? No way…" Thyrus sucked in a breath of cold air after reaching this thought.
However, there shouldn\'t be a power capable of doing that!
He started to reject his first idea as he carefully observed the surrounding.
After a while, he finally calmed himself. The surrounding trees and land seemed to be alright. There are no signs of an explosive force that removed the Tower… No meteor had descended or a bomb that exploded…
\'Since it\'s not an explosion, what could it be…\' Thyrus frowned as he landed on the crater.
It didn\'t seem like the Tower had sunk as well so he was really confused right now… He wanted to find some traces left behind but there really is nothing in there aside from the soil and rocks…
This is the first time he had seen anything like this so he wasn\'t sure how to proceed with his investigation. It was unfortunate that he doesn\'t have any Magic Artifact that could help him find any clues about what happened here.
\'Tsk… This is bad… If the Tower Lord is gone, there would be chaos…\' Thyrus considered his options. If Ignacy died, then their Black Tower Organization would be doomed.
Their territory will be vulnerable to external attacks since Ignacy is the only one who can wield the Ancient Arcane Staff… This staff is the same wooden staff that Ignacy would always hold and is capable of uniting everyone in the organization.
The fact that Vincent was already attacked means that the Tower Lord might\'ve perished already… Even if not, he was probably injured and he can\'t stop the 15th Tower from attacking his disciple.
In the end, Thyrus decided to visit the Tower Masters that were loyal to Ignacy…
"The sixth and the thirteenth towers are the nearest… I should go there first…" He can only check these close towers since he doesn\'t have many options to begin with.
These Towers were the places that Ignacy might actually visit to recuperate if he\'s still alive so it should be a good shot. With this in mind, Thyrus flew as fast as he could to deliver the news of what happened here.
The tragedy of the First Tower must spread immediately to let everyone be alert for any sudden invasion from the enemies.

Vincent was also clueless about this situation but it wasn\'t for long. After Ceri and Millie took Jairo\'s group to their interrogation room and fed them the potions Vincent gave them, they were able to learn the situation as well.
However, it wasn\'t easy. Jairo\'s group was still Grand Magus and possessed a high-level Mana Body. It means that their natural resistance against drugs and invasive Mana Arts was quite high… They were even immune to Tier 1 or Tier 2 poison.
They had to spend a lot of time, just to get the information they needed.
"The 15th Tower is backed by another powerful being similar to the previous deities of this land?" Millie was shocked as soon as she heard Jairo\'s confession.
After being together with Vincent and the other Followers of Qheglena she already learned a lot of things related to the celestials and the deities…
\'This is bad…\' Ceri thought after realizing that this is a huge matter involving the future of the whole Black Tower organization
Based on Jairo\'s words, Aarav, the Tower Master of the 15th Black Tower, made a contact with such a powerful being without the Tower Lord\'s knowledge.
Furthermore, this powerful being isn\'t on the side of the Celestials and the Deities at all. As a matter of fact, this being proclaimed himself as the Magic God and wanted this world to be ruled by only magicians!
This ideal had obviously attracted many Mana Practitioners who believe that they are the superior race! They wanted to slowly control the balance of power and remove the Celestial Beings completely… This was previously a feat that no one can possibly achieve.
However, with the help of the Magic God, numerous practitioners gathered to make these ideals become reality.
Unfortunately, as they slowly learned how to kill the Celestial Beings and achieved success with their Immortal Project, and were about to start their world domination, Vincent suddenly appeared and did something to their Magic God…
The Magic God was severely injured and took a year to recuperate and another year to prepare for their revenge today… Furthermore, they had to change many of their plans and have now decided to use the powers of Celestial Beings instead…

"So that\'s what happened…" Vincent muttered after listening to Millie\'s report.
He couldn\'t help but feel worried about their situation… However, it\'s a good thing that they survive this sudden siege without casualties.
This must\'ve disrupted the 15th Tower\'s plan so they should have some time to recuperate and strengthen their defenses…
As Vincent was thinking of his next plans, one of his communications crystals suddenly reacted.
\'Hmm? It should be connected to Ayla… She will never contact me unless it\'s important… Did she learn how to Ascend this time?\'
Vincent mused as he picked up the blue crystal.
