Chapter 758 - 760: Sensing
"…Hmm?" Riya opened her eyes with a frown, silently sensing the air and her eyes were a few shades colder. "There's another rank 7."
The Green Planet's mana was thinner and any disturbance, even if it was on the other side of the world, was very obvious for those who have reached rank 7. So when Riya woke up from her meditation and sensed the mana fluctuation, she could more or less guessed what had caused it.
Should she be glad that it was not a batch of rank 7 magic beasts' tide again or should she be annoyed because someone had faked their own death and causing trouble on the other side of the world?
"The soul magician," Samuel responded. "Would you like to contact her?"
"Since she had faked her death so thoroughly and Continent Y is in a mess, I don't think it's a good idea," Riya replied.
"How do you know Continent Y is in a mess?"
"The mana fluctuation." Riya gazed outside the window and her eyes flickered. "For rune masters, we're extremely sensitive to mana fluctuation and I can sense the movement of those rank 7 magic beasts. A single magic beast would mean nothing but a large number of them… it's a bit too obvious."
Samuel nodded and then frowned. "Almost everyone are rushing to reach rank 7. At this point, the first requirement has been fulfilled."
"It wouldn't be opened so easily." Riya shook her head. "We still need to gather in that island first. The twelfth returnee has been found?"
"Yes. I received the information while you're resting." Samuel also rested, but he had more contact with the officials and other people, so when he was also meditating, they sent a message to his phone.
In this way, he could see the information right after he finished his meditation.
"Who?"
"Leon, a villager from Continent X. He has been living in a small village and hide his presence until the second earthquake. By now, Continent X is asking for help because he almost couldn't hold on," Samuel replied with a hint of pity.
Previously, there was only one returnee from Continent X, which his Pena. Knowing that this man is a necromancer, Samuel didn't have a good impression of the other party, but this name was also unfamiliar to him.
Many people in that world was more well known with their title instead of their real name.
Especially those who came from unknown background or have some reasons why they wanted to hide their identity.
Samuel himself had no such interest and would rather appear bluntly and aboveboard. He had no interest to play intrigue game and those who dared to offend him would just be eliminated easily.
His goal in that world was simply to get stronger and stronger.
He had to time to play around with various tricks.
Thanks to this, he was extremely famous and almost no one didn't know his name. It had some benefit because he could easily find the other returnee who came to that world and returned. But at the same time, he was lacking in some basic knowledge about life.
After all, he never had to worry about food and drinks aside from the time when he went to the wildness for training and exploration.
"Continent X…" Riya repeated and nodded with a complicated expression. "Continent X is a continent consisted of countless small islands and it's hard for the officials there to manage all the islands at the same time."
They could only focus on the bigger islands and the smaller islands were partially ignored.
After all, they had to focus their firepower.
Now that the cracks only remained two in Continent X, perhaps they could restore other island's facilities and so on to protect the people. Slowly but surely, they could also clean up the magic beasts and provided safe bases in these islands.
But the two islands were Leon and Pena were located might be the real hell.
"Now they can focus but Pena has basically killed every living creature who come to the island where he was staying," Samuel said with a dark face.
Now that Pena had advanced to rank 7 and had such a large army under his command, Samuel knew very well that it wouldn't be easy for them to deal with him even if they wanted to.
Even before then, Pena has always been cautious.
He should have modified his own body so that it would not die so easily.
All necromancer has this ability and they were cautious enough to make sure that they would not die so easily.
Just like their army, undying.
"…He killed the people?" Riya was stunned.
Every returnee has their own set of conduct. She and Samuel belonged to the type who would not hurt other people unless it was in self defense. After all, they have no interest to kill other people around them.
Dina was the type to spread her own way to others and took benefit in it as Demonic Magician.
Murin was the type to ignore other people's problem and focused on himself and his own magic beasts. He didn't have interest to kill ordinary people, but he would also cause chaos and made the magic beasts went on a rampage.
This has happened before.
And now this Pena….
He killed ordinary people?
"Yes." Samuel sighed and felt that the necromancer was really bold. He dared to make the entire world as his enemy and he picked the most perfect moment to announce this to the entire world.
With the second earthquake happening and the message that came to the mind of everyone who had advanced to rank 7… who would want to deal with Pena right now?
As long as Pena didn't try to leave his island, it was estimated that Continent X will ignore him and let him monopolize the crack that existed in his place.
The crack is their source of resources, allowing them to grow stronger much faster than others.
