Asuna suddenly raised her head upon hearing this voice, looking at the ring in Herag’s hand.
She couldn’t understand Parker’s language, but she could tell someone was issuing orders to Herag.
Herag is already so strong, yet there’s someone who can command him!
"Moreover, I don’t have the ability to save them either."
The words Herag just spoke echoed in Asuna’s mind.
She suddenly realized that the forces behind Herag might be more terrifying than she had imagined.
Herag’s claim of having no ability to save them was indeed helplessness.
This meant there’s an existence far stronger than Herag orchestrating this massacre from the shadows.
"Asuna, you’re not allowed to disclose any information related to my bloodline to anyone." Herag, feeling uneasy, issued a command.
Herag’s Thunder God Ancestral Bloodline Power was something even Parker hadn’t discerned.
Without activating the Bloodline Mark, he seemed no different from an ordinary wizard.
This was also a significant reason Herag kept Asuna.
Even Parker, a Level 3 Wizard, couldn’t detect the Bloodline Power; why can a Third Class Wizard Apprentice level caster discern it?
This made Herag very curious, intending to investigate it.
But the research had to wait until returning to the Wizard Plane.
Currently at Base 27, besides having the Witch Array.
There were also many powerful wizards, and anything he did would be sensed.
He couldn’t expose his secrets; during this time at Base 27, he could only cultivate diligently, without showing any abnormalities.
Asuna nodded: "Yes, my lord."
She gleaned some information from Herag’s command.
That is, Herag’s Bloodline Power seems to be a secret, even unknowable to the forces behind him.
This made Asuna instantly think of many things.
In Asuna’s view, Herag is absolutely a god-like figure.
Yet his magical aura only neared the level of a Middle-tier caster.
This was too incongruous.
Why would such a powerful Bloodline Power existence disguise itself as a mere caster?
There must be more secrets hidden behind Herag.
In a flash, many thoughts crossed Asuna’s mind; she shook her head.
These didn’t matter to her, uncertain about how long she could live.
Asuna naturally did not know, Herag’s Bloodline Power was indeed substantial.
But that was a power usable only on the Abyss Plane.
The stronger the Power, the more suppression it faced from the World Will on other planes.
If a common demon from the Abyss Plane arrived at the Elf Plane or Wizard Plane, it would face minimal suppression, with little reduction in strength.
Herag’s Ancestral Bloodline status was too high, suppressed dead by the World Will, unable to normally activate the Bloodline Mark.
There came some commotion from behind Herag, and Asuna turned back to look, spotting a man and woman.
Reese glanced at Asuna, then reported to Herag: "We’ve handled things on our end, Lord Parker sent word for us to return."
"Hmm, let’s go." Herag nodded.
David and Reese also glanced at Asuna, then ignored her and turned away.
Asuna gasped, the two before her were also Initial-tier Casters, with strong magical auras.
Judging by their demeanor, they seemed to be Herag’s subordinates.
Asuna kept her head down, silently following behind Herag.
She swept away negative emotions and made another decision.
I must become stronger.
For the first time, Asuna had such a strong desire for power.
If she were strong enough, Shadi and others wouldn’t have died.
If she were strong enough, she wouldn’t be in a position to be so easily slaughtered, utterly powerless to resist.
Asuna realized, the people before her were so powerful.
Once she entered the force they were part of, there would be a chance to access great power.
Asuna believed her talent was unmatched.
The two before her could become powerful Initial-tier Casters, she could too, and could travel even further.
More importantly, Herag, who had signed a Master-Servant Contract with her, was a God Level existence disguised in human skin.
Suddenly, Asuna thought maybe this was an opportunity for her.
To become strong, she had to rely on Herag.
Though she didn’t know what Herag intended, by staying by his side, there would eventually be opportunities to grow stronger.
From this moment, Asuna tied her own interests to Herag’s.
Unknowingly, Herag walked a distance while Asuna contemplated so much.
He and David Reese, along with others, returned to Base 27.
Others gradually came back as well.
Judging by their appearances, it seemed they had easily dealt with those adventurers.
Herag even saw a bald wizard carrying a well-built woman, who upon closer inspection was dressed like an adventurer.
The bald wizard felt something, turned to see Herag, then grinned.
That woman was his trophy; it seemed life at Base 27 had been so dull, frustrating him greatly.
Parker wouldn’t care if you brought people back from outside, as long as they weren’t let out.
Within the base, you could do as you pleased.
Asuna also saw that woman, then covered her mouth; she recognized that woman, she was a well-known assassin among adventurers, Knight Level strength.
Judging by her looks, she was still breathing, but could foresee rough days ahead.
Thinking this, Asuna glanced at Herag’s back.
Concerned, if Herag planned something against her, she’d be helpless.
An hour later, Kane was the last to return.
Many people stood in the plaza within the base, with Parker in the center.
Kane reported: "All traces have been cleared from every place."
Parker nodded: "Yes, understood. After eliminating these adventurers, stronger beings might come investigating, everyone prepare beforehand."
Parker dared to order the extermination of those adventurers, naturally prepared for the consequences.
After these adventurers disappeared, stronger beings would surely come investigating.
But Parker didn’t care, nor did Base 27.
They just needed time, and once they truly faced the Elf Race, Base 27 would have enough confidence.
At that time, Base 27 would actively strike, no longer needing to hide as they do now. Chapters fırst released on novel⸺fire.net
Asuna stood behind Herag, looking at the group of Initial-tier Casters, Middle-tier Casters, and even High-tier casters around.
Moreover, there were some whose magical power far surpassed High-tier casters.
She felt a bit dizzy, wondering why so many powerful existences gathered in the Lime Mountain Range.
She still didn’t understand the Wizard Plane’s language, couldn’t comprehend their discussions.
