Chapter 1307: Chapter 717 Leopard Head_2 Chapter 1307: Chapter 717 Leopard Head_2 Timothy Daiziel nodded, his expression serious, “The Master hopes that you can arrange an array outside his store that will gather all the Demonic Qi on his side. Such ability is not something an ordinary person could achieve.” His tone carried a hint of awe, clearly having a profound understanding of Logan's strength.
The old man furrowed his brows upon hearing this, and after a moment of contemplation, he slowly began to speak, “The last array was a success only because several of us worked on it together. This time it needs my help again, and the requirements are even higher, to gather all the Demonic Qi to the Master's side… This…” He clenched his teeth, not being surprised was impossible. After all, such an array is not only extremely complicated, but also carries great risks, and the slightest carelessness could lead to unforeseen consequences.
“Is that really what he said?” A young Mage beside the old man interrupted, surprised. “Didn't you tell the Master about the dangers? If something goes wrong, we surely can't bear the responsibility!” The urgency and worry in his voice were apparent, showing his confusion and concern about Logan's decision.
Timothy Daiziel helplessly shook his head, “Of course, I did, but the Master is resolute, he says he has his plans. Moreover, the Master also specially instructed me that the array must be carried out in secret, not drawing any attention from others.” There was a hint of helplessness and concern in his eyes, as he was quite aware of the enormity and danger of the task.
After a moment of silence, the old man slowly spoke again, “Since the Master has decided, we can only do our best. However, Timothy, you must be clear, this array is different from before, we need to be more cautious and careful. Moreover, we must be fully prepared in case any mishap occurs.” His tone was firm and resolute, as if to encourage himself and Timothy.
Timothy nodded, his expression resolute, “I understand, I will assist you as much as I can. And I will keep a close eye on the Master's condition, and if anything seems amiss, I will report to you immediately.” There was determination and courage in his eyes, as if telling himself to forge ahead no matter what difficulties arose.
And so, a secret operation involving Demonic Qi and the array quietly began. Outside Logan's shop, the old man, Timothy, and several other Mages began to busy themselves. They drew symbols, arranged arrays, and chanted spells, each action performed with focus and care. Meanwhile, Logan remained engrossed in his books, seemingly oblivious to everything outside. However, deep within him lay a secret and plan that no one knew…
In a corner of the Magic Market, Timothy was quietly talking with the City Lord, both furrowing their brows, clearly troubled by some thorny issue. They were surrounded by a bustling crowd, yet their conversation seemed to exist in a world apart.
“I've already told the Master, but he never listens, and there's nothing we can do,” Timothy sighed with a sense of helplessness, “Hasn't the Master also said, in our current situation, that he could easily do this! But we all know it's not a joking matter.”
The City Lord, too, wore a look of worry, “Yes, Timothy, you've informed Logan of the potential outcomes and consequences, yet he stubbornly refuses to listen. He even tells us that his strength can absorb it, no matter how much Demonic Qi comes. But we all know, how challenging that Qi is to contain. If only…” He did not continue, but the anxiety in his eyes grew heavier.
Timothy was also acutely aware of the stakes. He clenched his fists, nails nearly digging into his palms, “City Lord, what do we do now? We can't really let the Master carry on recklessly, can we? If something really goes wrong, our entire Clan could suffer!”
The City Lord was silent for a moment as if weighing something. Finally, he spoke slowly, “I've heard that a group of Humans has been staying at the inn, disguised as members of our Clan. I suspect they have nefarious intentions. Here's what we'll do, Timothy, bring them here. Their strength should be significant. If we refine them into Demonic Qi to give to the Master, it can solve our pressing issue and teach a lesson to those Humans who dare to intrude on our territory.”
Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in Timothy's eyes, “Excellent! If the Humans dare to intrude on our territory, they can't blame us for not being merciful. We have always restrained ourselves, but that doesn't mean we don't harbor hatred towards the Human race. This time, let them witness our might!”
After speaking, Timothy Daiziel turned to leave, but the City Lord suddenly called out to him, “Timothy Daiziel, wait a moment. This matter must be handled cleanly, without leaving any traces. Moreover, you must remember, our target is only those of the Human race who have trespassed onto our territory, do not implicate the innocent. After all, though we bear deep hatred toward humans, we must not lose our reason and bottom line because of it.”
Timothy Daiziel nodded with a resolute expression, “City Lord, rest assured, I know what to do. I will proceed with caution to ensure that nothing goes awry.” Having finished speaking, his figure flashed and then he disappeared among the crowd.
Watching Timothy Daiziel's retreating figure, the City Lord's heart filled with mixed feelings. He knew that although this operation was to resolve the immediate crisis, it might also trigger even greater troubles. However, faced with Logan's stubbornness and the threat of the Demonic Qi, they seemed to have no other choice. One could only hope that everything would go smoothly, allowing their clan to continue living peacefully on this land.
Deep within the Magic Market, a grand castle stood erect, and within, Timothy Daiziel was conversing with a figure clad in a black robe, with a cold countenance. The Master's eyes were as profound as the Abyss, radiating an unquestionable majesty.
“Rest assured, Master, I'll go today. I have long detested these members of the Human race. I feel they're all a bunch of hypocrites who don't deserve to remain here!” Timothy Daiziel spoke angrily, with eyes flashing with deep contempt and disdain for humanity. His words were filled with resoluteness and power, as if at that moment, he could hardly wait to round up all those “hypocritical” humans.
Upon hearing this, the corners of the Master's mouth curled into a satisfied smile. He nodded lightly, his eyes showing a hint of approval, “Good, well said. Then I'll await your victorious return!” His voice was deep and forceful, as if each word carried endless authority and anticipation.
Timothy Daiziel puffed out his chest, his eyes sparking with determination, “Master, have no worries, we shall surely succeed!” His tone was full of confidence and resolve, as if he could already see the dawn of victory. After speaking, he turned and strode out of the castle, ready to lead his subordinates to the staging post to initiate an action against the Human race.
Meanwhile, at the staging post, several members of the Sect were chatting leisurely, completely unaware of the danger silently descending upon them. Suddenly, a mysterious chill tensed their hearts, and they exchanged looks, their eyes flickering with alarm and confusion.
“What's going on?” one of them asked in a low voice, clearly shaken by this sudden coldness.
“I'm not sure, but something feels off,” another said, his brow furrowed as his gaze searched for any potential threats.
However, before they could react, Timothy Daiziel and his men appeared at the entrance of the staging post like Ghosts. Their appearance plunged the Sect members into a state of panic and despair.
At that moment, outside the City Lord's Mansion, a figure swiftly flashed by.
