With Sneefa and Samantha gone, only Saunders and N'Golo Kante were left on the field.

Sanders looked silently at the borderline forest in the distance...... There are not many trees left in the Critical Forest now, almost all of them are lava pools, and even if there are still some living trees, it is estimated that they will not survive in the dust. It shouldn't be long before it's time to change its name.

The snow was still falling, but the snow fell over the lava pool and was evaporated into the mist. The dust echoes below, the fire shines, and the white mist surrounds it, and at first glance, it looks quite beautiful.

"No one expected that under the Critical Forest, such a demon would actually sleep. Kanter muttered, "It's so rare for a lord to fall off the throne. ”

Sanders didn't answer Kanter's words, and continued to look into the distance, his gaze seemed to be on the borderline forest, but it seemed to pass through the forest and look out into the distant Howling Plains.

"What are you looking at?" Kanter asked, confused.

Sanders spoke slowly: "I'm guessing if she'll ever come back." ”

"It's hard to say, but the martial law in Castlevania will end soon, and it is estimated that we will leave in a short time, and even if Dongla comes back then, it will not affect us much. Kanter paused, his eyes flickering, "And, with the level of her bad luck, I don't think Donla has a chance to come back." ”

After Kante finished speaking, Sanders just smiled and shook his head.

When he said 'will he come back', he didn't mean Dongla, but ...... Madeleine.

When Tonla began to flee with Manguimone, Sanders found Madeleine, who was watching the battle from afar, turned into thorns and sneaked underground, secretly following her.

Just think about it and you know what Madeleine wants to do.

After all, Dongla once single-handedly caused the tragedy of the Silian family's extermination. Madeleine chases after her, presumably for revenge.

Sanders noticed the scene, but he didn't stop it. Previously, Madeline and Tonla were completely unequal in magnitude, and if Madeline went to Tonla for revenge, Sanders might come forward to intercept her. But now, under the influence of bad luck, Madeleine may really be able to die in the shadows.

Especially, now Dongla has no way to recover the magic source.

However, after all, Donla is a true wizard, and the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and Sanders can't tell if Madeleine can return.

The situation in the abyss changed rapidly, and Sanders shook his head and decided not to.

Even if Madeleine really can't come back, it's her own choice.

When Sanders returned to his territory, he saw Ingres still standing on the tower looking into the distance, as if he had never left, and the snow was piling up on his soft blonde hair, but it was like wearing a pure white crown.

"What are you thinking?" Sanders fell.

“...... Is this the power of the Abyss Demon?" Even if the demon had already left, Ingre's eyes were still a little dazed, and in just a few minutes, most of the Critical Forest had actually turned into a lava pool!

"That's a special demon. Sanders thought for a moment and simply told what had happened.

After listening to Sanders's account, Ingres's focus shifted from the demon to the legendary Dora witch who was extremely fond of "grafting" parts from other people's bodies.

"Is bad luck really that powerful?"

Sanders nodded, even the Demon Lord couldn't avoid the Doom Sweeper. In the records of the Frost Moon, the place where the Pilgrim of Doom is located will invite endless calamities.

"What happened to Lord Donla...... Ingres asked curiously.

Sanders smiled and shook his head, but didn't say anything.

......

Three days later, the snow continued to fall, and it seemed that it was getting heavier and heavier.

The lava pool in the distance was still boiling and boiling, the fire was shining, and the white mist was hazy, if it weren't for the strong pungent smell, it would be a bit fairyland.

The order in the fortress has become slightly neater after the horror of Manguimone. However, this situation did not last long, and everyone received a new directive.

"Tomorrow we will evacuate the Overwatch Fortress, pack our bags, and prepare to move to the port of Codo. ”

In Sanders' study, Ingres was stunned after hearing the news: "Martial law in Castlevania has ended?"

"Not yet, however, because of Manguimone's affairs, Snefer decided to move his position ahead of schedule. Sanders said.

This choice is also in line with the current situation, after all, it is almost impossible for the descendants of the demon god to come out of the passage of the critical forest, not to mention, if Dongla comes to his senses and runs back to the fortress again, it will also be a disaster.

"You also prepare, I will take advantage of this gap in the transfer to take you back to the wizarding world. ”

This is something that Sanders has decided before, the abyss is too dangerous, and Angel is not even qualified to be cannon fodder here.

Ingres nodded and turned around to leave the study.

However, after leaving, instead of packing his luggage, he walked out the door.

Now that he is about to leave, Toby has not returned, and Angel wants to call Toby back first.

Angel flew directly to the top of the tower and signaled a summoning.

Ten minutes passed, though, and Angel didn't see Toby. He hesitated for a moment, and then sent out two more signals, but as far as the eye could see, there was a vast expanse of snowfall, and Toby still did not appear.

Because of the good mood of knowing that he was going to return to the wizarding world, at this moment, he suddenly became a little uneasy.

Sanders had said before that the vicinity of the fortress was quite safe, so he was relieved to let Toby play by himself, but now Toby has not replied to the message for a long time, which makes Angel have a bad premonition.

Was it because he was in danger, or was Toby far away from the safe zone and didn't receive his signal?

Angel recalls the last time he saw Toby.

That was three days ago, after Manguimone had been led away by Donla. Angel summoned Toby and told him not to go to the Critical Forest and the Howling Plains.

After that, he got caught up in research and never saw Toby again.

Angel was a little apprehensive, but he forcibly ordered himself not to panic, according to Toby's strength, with the Dark Feather and the gravitational vein, it was enough to deal with most situations, and it should be fine......

Angels jumped off the tower and made his way to the outlying towers.

Although the apprentices were a little lazy and relaxed during this time, the guards on the watchtower were always on the lookout, and Toby wanted to go out for a stroll before, but he was almost regarded as a foreign enemy by those guards. Later, it was Kanter who helped explain that Toby was free to move outside the fortress.

Jumping up and running in the snow-covered fortress, Angels questioned several guards in succession, but no one noticed Toby's whereabouts. It wasn't until he came to the northern tower of the fortress that he learned something.

And this situation was not told to him by the guards, but the result of an apprentice who was drinking and having fun in the tower heard Angels ask the guards about help.

"You say the gray bird?" said the stocky apprentice with an empty wine glass and the smell of wine on his body, and he thought for a moment, "I remember seeing that bird yesterday afternoon when we went to look for the Lost Silver Ring. ”

The Misty Silver Ring is a shrimp-like creature, which is a low-level ingredient for gourmet wizards, and eating it directly can help the male style.

"Right, pigtails?" the chunky apprentice nudged the Shota apprentice with a long rattail pigtail next to him.

The pigtailed kid's face was flushed, and he didn't know if it was because he was drunk or because of the mention of the Misty Silver Ring.

"It was a little dark and I didn't see it. But Bobota should have seen it, he's been looking up to the sky. After the pigtailed child finished speaking, he looked at Angel with curious eyes: "Are you Mr. Pat?"

"You know me?"

"Bobota said before that you are a disciple of Lord Illusion. The pigtailed child's eyes seemed to shine, and he had an expression of adoration.

When Bobota Angels heard the name, he seemed to open the memory box in the depths of his mind, and a young man in a white robe jumped out.

Is this Popota a Popota?

While Ingres was thinking, the short and fat apprentice took Ingres around the tower quite attentively, and came to the other side, and then Ingres saw a man half-lying on the roof, leaning against the eaves of the upper floor to hide the snow, and drinking wine.

At the same time, the blood-colored chains wrapped around the man's body made Angel stunned.

Sure enough, it was him.

This chain was originally refined by Angels.

Ingres hadn't seen Bobota since refining the chain, and it was here that they met again after years of absence.

"Tell me, Bobota, did we see that bird yesterday?" shouted the Humpty Dumpty apprentice leaning against the steel fence and into Bobota outside the fence.

Bobota took a sip of his wine and turned his head.

His gaze skimmed directly over to the Humpty Fat Apprentice to Angels.

After a moment of distraction, he picked up the wine glass with only a thin layer of liquid left, and saluted Angels out of thin air.

"See you again. Bobota said with a smile.

Angel was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing with doubt. Hearing Bobota's tone, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"Looks like Mr. Pat has forgotten me?"

Angel shook off the strange familiarity in his mind, shook his head at Bobota and said, "Naturally, I haven't forgotten, and I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

The relationship between them is only between the seller and the customer, if it is a different time and place, Ingres may say a few words, but at this moment Toby's whereabouts are unknown, Ingres did not continue to be polite, and asked directly:

"Just now, this ......" Ingres glanced at the stocky apprentice, and was thinking about what to say, when he immediately introduced himself: "My name is Dusty."

"I'm looking for such a grey seabird. Ingres stretched out his hand and simulated Toby's illusion in the palm of his hand: "Just now, Dusty told me, have you seen it?

Bobota looked at the phantom bird in Sanders' palm, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems that I have really seen it, I want to think about it...... I think I saw it yesterday afternoon, near the Shadow Hill. ”
