Chapter 3615 Levi Starts Making His Move
While Levi was mulling over the matter, he suddenly remembered something very important. This incident proves my suspicion that the mysterious woman has probably hit her devouring limit as correct. Now that she has gone to the Esoteric Guild and forced them to launch the Thunder-Summoning Technique, she likely wants to use Heavenly Thunder to metamorphose, thereby building up her body to be stronger.
Then, she would be able to boost her devouring capacity. And according to Caelum, the mysterious woman said she’d return before leaving. That means she hasn’t completed her metamorphosis yet. Therefore, I’ve got a chance, no?
“This female lord has a lot of spies. If I were to rush over rashly, she wouldn’t appear once news of it leaks out. At that time, it’ll be difficult to lure her out. How about this? Go back and keep an eye on things first. Notify me timely if there’s any crucial news. I’ll then appear when the time is right so that I can get her in one fell swoop,” Levi proposed grimly.
Caelum nodded in agreement. As long as he agrees to lend us a hand, my mission is considered accomplished!
Meanwhile, Levi’s mind whirred at warp speed as he pondered upon a slew of things.
Since the mysterious woman is currently utilizing Heavenly Thunder to metamorphose, she certainly wouldn’t have the time and energy to deal with me. Therefore, this is a good opportunity for me to use those three spiritual ley lines. Even if she successfully metamorphoses, I would’ve long since drained all the energy in those spiritual ley lines. This would put a kibosh on her plan. At the same time, I can boost my capabilities significantly. Two birds, one stone! Of course, I’ve got to hide Evie and the others away before doing so.
In truth, he had come up with a few backup plans previously.
One of the most suitable places was none other than a safe house.
He had previously set up safe houses to combat the impact of the spiritual energy revival.
A few of them were located in exceedingly isolated places, either hidden in snow-capped mountains or in the depths of the sea.
“Since we’re working together now, Caelum, you’ll be responsible for keeping an eye on the movements of that mysterious woman at all times. As soon as there’s news, please inform my friends and family at once,” Levi asserted solemnly.
“Of course.”
Caelum agreed without an ounce of hesitation.
In fact, he even gave Levi a few of the Esoteric Guild’s secret communication tools.
“I’m looking forward to working with you!”
“Deal!”
After the two of them had reached an agreement, Caelum left happily.
Levi, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief.
With the Esoteric Guild’s stellar assistance, Evie and the others would be safe while I’m gone. The instant they foresee danger or receive news from the Esoteric Guild, they can swiftly go and hide out in the safe houses. While the safe houses aren’t indestructible, they could at least last for some time.
Soon, Levi gathered everyone with the exception of Floyd.
Needless to say, that was a decision he made after listening to Phoenix and the others.
It was a critical time then, so they had to avoid anything that could bring about problems as much as possible.
“In the few days to come, you must all pay attention to any news from Caelum. If there’s anything amiss, go and hide out in the safe houses at once. Also, always be on guard against Xylas. There have been signs of him leading Fatalis Warriors near the base recently,” Levi instructed somberly.
He reckoned that the suspicious figures around their base of late might be the doing of the mysterious woman to delay him so that he couldn’t go and back the Esoteric Guild up.
Since such was her plan, he decided to play along.
For that reason, he deliberately wandered around the base in the following few days.
He wanted to give Xylas and the mysterious woman behind the man an illusion that he was keeping guard there, ready to face their attack.
After settling everyone, Levi secretly left the base.
His movements were so stealthy that no one even realized when he left.
The first spiritual ley line he chose was the one in the Atlantis project.
