“Leaving? Not so fast!”

At this moment, Saturn extended a finger. Immediately, fine strands of windstorm rapidly weaved together into a big net. This big net fell directly onto Holy Knight Deutz’s head. The force was so formidable that even an average Ninth-level Spell Caster would not dare to tackle it head-on.

Moreover, Saturn was not the only one who attacked. Merlin’s eyes also shined with a strange glow as he affixed his stare on Deutz. Subsequently, invisible Mind Power began to fluctuate.

“Nine Hit Strike!”

“Boom!”

One wave crashed after another. The invisible attacks caused Deutz to pale significantly. The golden fighting spirit around his body seemed almost useless. Although his abilities could rival a Ninth-level Spell Caster, he seemed a little short-handed compared to the joint forces of Merlin and Saturn.

On the other side, Vic’s puppet leaped up fiercely. Its body emitted flashes of black light, and a strange power began to fluctuate.

“Foolish creature, get lost!”

A hint of madness appeared in Vic’s eyes. Since he had obviously activated the puppet’s secret powers, its strength was boosted mightily

“Bang!”

The puppet in the black armor swung another punch, and this time, even space collapsed. This punch had transcended the concept of space. In a flash, it landed on the giant dragon’s head.

The giant dragon was covered with huge shiny scales which protected its gargantuan body. However, this one punch directly smashed all the giant dragon’s scales. The huge force slammed violently against the giant dragon. With a painful whimper, it fell heavily onto the ground.

“What?”

Deutz was shocked. He had personally perceived the giant dragon’s abilities, which was terribly fearsome and far stronger than him. Right now, however, based on the showdown of power, the giant dragon had lost to the “black armored person”.

However, Deutz himself was in a precarious situation. After withstanding Merlin’s Nine Hit Strike with each strike stronger than the last, at the fourth strike, he could no longer endure it. His face flushed red, and a spray of fresh blood spurted from his mouth. Immediately, he was restrained by Wizards Olga and Seddon in a single move.

“Hoo…”

The door of the great hall had been smashed into pieces. On the ground outside laid a wheezing giant dragon. A gentle breeze stirred and blew away the stench of blood inside the great hall.

After a big battle, Deutz was finally restrained while the giant dragon had been injured and similarly suppressed.

“Who are you?”

Deutz glared at Merlin and the others coldly. He now saw that these six people before him were not the Sky Knights from the Kingdom of Seedan. He knew the four Sky Knights from the Kingdom of Seeden like the back of his hand, and these six people were none of them.

This meant that the Kingdom of Seeden might have produced new Sky Knights, and unbelievably, they were able to defeat a glorified Holy Knight like him.

Deutz tried to crack his brains but he was already a trapped prisoner. His arrogance disappeared and countless considerations to escape ran through his head. However, he took one look at the wheezing dragon on the ground and those hopes were dashed.

Merlin and the others exchanged a look. This battle might have appeared to be easy and lasted only for a short time, but all of them had wielded most of their techniques.

Especially invaluable was Vic’s puppet that managed to block the giant dragon from combining with Deutz to become a real Holy Knight. Otherwise, the battle would not have ended so easily.

“Truly despicable. If I didn’t leave the giant dragon, you would not have been able to handle me!”

Deutz was currently frustrated to no end. Once a Holy Knight left his giant dragon, his threat level would plummet downward in a straight line. At most, he would only be at par with a powerful Sky Knight.

Initially, he had been very careful and vigilant in the Kingdom of Seeden, but still, he got tricked into leaving the giant dragon. As a result, both of them were captured, which made him feel disgruntled.

Saturn and the others did not pay attention to Deutz’s frustrations. Even if he became a real Holy Knight, they would still be able to capture him. At most, it would just cause a bigger spectacle and less favorable odds for them.

“Merlin, you do the interrogation.”

Saturn said to Merlin.

Merlin did not evade and came to face Deutz. In a deep voice, he asked, “Holy Knight Deutz, as to how you became a Holy Knight, I’m sure that you know better than we do. Judging from your abilities, it’s impossible for you to tame the giant dragon. Tell us, who helped you to tame the giant dragon?”

“Huh? How do you know that?”

Deutz’s face blanched and a trace of fear rose up in his eyes. Even when he was captured earlier, he did not wear such a look.

Right now, upon hearing the question about who tamed the giant dragon, Deutz revealed a look of fear and terror. Anyone would know that there was more than met the eye.

Merlin sneered. “You still can’t tell? We’re not Sky Knights!”

At the same time, Merlin stretched out a hand and a small fireball appeared in his palm, emitting an incredible heat.

“You… You’re Spell Casters?”

Deutz sucked in a huge breath of air, and asked in a trembling voice.

“Since you know that we’re Spell Casters, we’ll be honest with you. This is a matter between the Spell Casters and the Rock Tribe, even you’ll not be able to interfere. If you talk to us, you can still go back and continue being a Holy Knight. If not… Well, you probably have witnessed some of the techniques of the Rock Tribe. Since the Rock Tribe is afraid of Spell Casters, naturally, our techniques aren’t inferior to them.”

Merlin was now certain that there must be a Rock Tribe behind Deutz. Those Holy Knights were most probably secretly controlled by the Rock Knight.

“You really want to find the Rock Tribe?”

After a long silence, Deutz asked slowly.

“Of course. We came here to investigate the Rock Tribe.”

Merlin nodded, and Deutz ground his teeth angrily. “I do hope that you manage to clear out all those Rock Tribes. They’re truly terrible. The Holy Knights who have appeared in the last few decades generally constitute giant dragons that were captured by the Rock Tribe, and they also control almost all the Holy Knights.”

“Control the Holy Knights? How do they control you?”

Merlin and the others were jolted, sensing that they were getting closer to the truth. As long as they could investigate the Rock Tribe’s conspiracy, they would be able to return and submit their mission.

“They’re not controlling us but our giant dragons! These giant dragons usually obey us and fight alongside us, allowing our abilities to increase substantially and become real Holy Knights. However, when push comes to shove, he can control the giant dragon at any time. Without the giant dragon, our capacities are only on par with some powerful Sky Knights at best, which generally isn’t a threat.”

Merlin nodded to Deutz’s words. Spell Casters also had some techniques that could be used to control a giant dragon, so it must not be too difficult for the Rock Tribe as well.

Although using the giant dragons to control the Holy Knights was a good plan, what was the true motive for the Rock Tribe to do so?

Regarding this, Deutz also shook his head helplessly. “All I know is that in each kingdom, wherever Holy Knights exist, the Rock Tribes would also lurk in the shadows. They’re active in various kingdoms and are hidden in the dark. A few of us Holy Knights have met and exchanged messages with each other. We’ve discovered that the Rock Tribes are afraid of Spell Casters, probably people like you. The people that they instructed us to kill were actually Spell Casters. All the while, they’re hidden behind the scenes, so we don’t know what they’re scheming.”

The situation described by Deutz was largely similar to what Captain Thunderdragon had said. Although the Potential Wizards in the Seely Dimension were killed by the hands of the Holy Knights, in reality, the Holy Knights were being controlled by the Rock Tribe.

However, they were still unclear about the conspiracy of the Rock Tribe, so Merlin and the others could not go back to Arcane City to submit their mission yet.

“Deutz, do you know who’s the Rock Tribe behind you? How many people are there?”

Merlin asked after some thought.

“How many people? The only Rock Tribe I’ve met is just one person. He’s ever-changing but I can sense his aura. That’s right, there’s only one person. He calls himself Gustia.”

After the interrogation, Merlin shifted his gaze to Saturn, and the six of them gathered to discuss.

“If we want to uncover the conspiracy of the Rock Tribe, I’m afraid we have to go one step further, and directly engage the Rock Tribe.”

“How many people from the Rock Tribe has infiltrated the Seely Dimension? What about their abilities? We don’t know anything. If we act rashly, it might be dangerous.”

Some of them had agreed to engage the Rock Tribe while others had second thoughts.

Both Saturn and Rael did not make any statement. They were the ones who would be able to make the final decision.

The two men stewed in silence for a long time. Then, Saturn spoke suddenly, “Since we’ve already come this far in this mission, naturally, we cannot abandon it halfway. This so-called Rock Tribe’s Gustia is most probably only one person. After all, they operate furtively behind the scenes, so they wouldn’t dare to infiltrate too many in. Nevertheless, even though it’s just one person, Gustia’s abilities must be terribly formidable to be able to easily capture all these giant dragons. His abilities must be at least comparable to the existence of a Great Wizard.”

“Yes, and this Gustia isn’t like those Holy Knights. He’s comparable to the powerful Great Wizards.”

Wizard Rael added.

“So now, it’s your turn to decide. Are you going or not? If we go, then don’t hold anything back. This will be a dangerous mission, after all. We’ll have to face the existence of a powerful Great Wizard.”

Saturn looked at Rael and the others with a hint of excitement. It was the excitement to battle a powerful enemy.

“Hehe, so what if he’s a Great Wizard? The three of us had joined forces and killed a Great Wizard before! This mission has such generous Adventure points as a reward so it would be a great waste to not go. So, what if we have to fight it out with the Rock Tribe?”

Wizard Seddon said with an expression of indifference. Apparently, he, Rael, and the others had joined forces to kill an ordinary Great Wizard before. This was a remarkable battle record.

“I’ve nothing to say. Saturn, we’ll not abort this mission halfway. What about you?”

Rael said with a solemn expression.

“If all of you can go, why wouldn’t we dare to go?”

Wizard Vic stood up. He also had a powerful trump card. Even if the opponent could not be defeated, he would not have a problem preserving his life. Hence, he was not afraid.

“If that’s the case, we’ll all go to meet the Rock Tribe!”

Saturn’s words undoubtedly represented the final decision of all six of them. They would fight the Rock Tribe’s Gustia, and unearth the conspiracy of the Rock Tribe, before returning to Arcane City to submit their mission.
