Chapter 905: Alive or not?
Outside of the Capital:
The crippled old man once again made sure that no back hand was left behind. This was one of the reasons why he had preferred to engage in close combat.
If the dark lord old man had tried a forbidden spell, the situation would have been different. Even for him, it could have been a headache to handle it.
Fortunately, he killed the dark lord old man before it's too late. Their confrontation has changed this small piece of barren terrain.
It won't be suitable for any kind of transportation in the near future. If the outside world knows about this secret confrontation they would be shocked to the core.
In a very long time, this country hadn't witnessed and heard of the duel between the Magic Lords. Any kind of large confrontation between the Magic Lords has potential to destroy the city of a Capital size.
After checking the crippled old man thought about Vincent Carey and decides to leave.
Beep!
Right at this moment, someone sends him a message. Seeing that the crippled old man checks the message.
Boom!
A monstrous coercion set off from his body. The force swept away everything close to him. The destroyed terrain becomes even more unrecognizable. There was no sign of green patches on the ground.
All the little known green trees are completely uprooted from the ground.
The crippled old man's eyes flashes with a murderous glint.
"What a sinister plot?" He said in a cold tone. The message was sent by the dean, describing the current situation of Vincent Carey and Galvin Martin.
The old man was right in his feelings earlier. He had felt bad despite suppressing the dark lord here. Little did he know that bad premonition comes from somewhere else.
"Which means the dark lord hadn't come alone. He had minions with him," A quick gleam flashes in his eyes.
He can understand the Dark Lord's intrusion in the arena building. Unless there is a Wizard of similar strength. No one can find the Dark Lord.
But what about the minions? He knows that the arena is highly secured; it's being patrolled by high-ranking wizards all the time.
"Then how did they get in?" He muttered.
After pushing down these thoughts, he disappeared from the spot.
Swoosh!
Right now, he has to confirm the situation with his own eyes. They weren't able to find the body of Vincent Carey. Everyone suspected that the kid was incinerated completely.
But he refused to believe this. Especially after seeing Vincent Carey's feat in the Adamont Canyon. He believes Vincent Carey has the trump card to deal with situations like this.
A few minutes later,

The crippled old man reached the spot. Seeing his shabby appearance. Everyone was shocked. The arena authority wanted to stop him.
"He is our academy Elder," Galvin stood up to stop him.
Hearing that the authority retreated back in fear. The other administration staff also showed respect.
They know that some old high ranking wizards are like this. The other hand, Galvin sighed inwardly.
He had only seen him a few times. But everytime he has a trace of fear in his heart. This time it was even higher. Because he was the one who was supposed to protect Vincent Carey's life.
Now he has failed in his task. The other hand, Stella Glover is also here. But she is sitting around the corner silently.
She didn't pay attention to the crippled old man and others. She is in a state of disbelief right now. How the day has been normal till this morning.
Now such a huge thing has happened. She is feeling hard to believe it. She doesn't know whether it's okay to inform Lara White or not.
Because Elder Galvin is not sure of Vincent Carey's state right now. She feels helpless.
Meanwhile,
The crippled old man has already started working. He can check traces of Vincent Carey's life signal. It was collected during Vincent Carey's inheritance acceptance.
For that he has to go back to the academy. Before going, he decided to investigate this place.
Seeing that the old man is checking the place. Galvin and the administration staff made the way for him.
The crippled old man saw the magic prints of the level-8 wizards left not long ago. Including the footprint of the Elder Galvin.
He can tell that those were the ones who attacked Vincent Carey.
The staff and others stood behind silently. They can tell that the old man was serious. They are patiently waiting for the news.
If Vincent Carey is still alive, then it's good news for everyone. If not then they have to stop the competition.
The old man landed in the deep pit. He saw the trace was cut off in the mid way. There was no magic print of Vincent Carey on the ground.
Which shows that he had disappeared in the mid way.
"How is it possible?" The old man's eyes flickered.
He is very familiar with the situation. Because the same thing had happened during the Adamont Canyon incident.
"Does he have any teleportation scroll with him?" The crippled old man said in his heart. Other than that, he couldn't explain the sudden disappearance.
The Adamont Canyon was slightly different. Because it was believed to have secret bass or ruin. But here in this place there is no place for such things.
After gaining some clarity in his thoughts, he looked towards everyone.
He said,"Don't leak the matter for the time being. There is a possibility that Vincent Carey is still alive. In case anyone asks, cover it as an accident."
Hearing that the administration staff looked at each other. They can only do it as he says. Even the level-8 Wizard Elder Galvin is being respectful towards the old man.
Which shows that the old man has high status in the Yellow River Academy. They don't want to offend him.
At this point of time, they have already extinguished those flames and saved the structures from the collapsing.
Then the staff left the place leaving behind the old man, Elder Galvin and Stella Glover.
