Chapter 890: Promotion Failure

Chapter 877 – Promotion Failure
While the people outside were thinking about how to help Sol leave the Lost Cloisters, Sol didn’t relax.

He wandered through the Lost Cloisters once again after reading Midol’s growth report.

It wasn’t Saul’s character to hide in a prison cell and wait for Flim to be kind enough to release him or wait for someone else to save him.

Although on his first day in, Saul had already circled around the square Lost Cloister several times without finding anything.

But today he was ready to take another good stroll.

Since the Lost Cloister was able to absorb magic power and isolate spiritual power, it meant that this was indeed a place to store souls.

Royer’s soul was hosted here, so were there other people’s souls?

Saul wanted to find out if he could find some of the “natives” and gather more information about this place so that he could make a plan to leave.

Saul walked back and forth in the square corridor for a dozen times, but for the time being, he didn’t find any gaps where his spiritual power could escape.

Recalling that every time Leah appeared, she was at a corner, she came to a corner as well.

The walls of the two passages formed a right angle here. But even if this right angle in front of her was sharp and not a single gap could be seen, it was still the junction of the two walls.

Perhaps the way out is here.

Sol squinted his eyes, and a thin thread invisible to the onlooker stretched out from his fingertips, then touched the wall of the Lost Cloister.

The walls of the Lost Cloister could not be seen in the material composition of its construction, and it was smooth to the touch, rather like powder and grease evenly applied to the masonry walls.

However, after Saul’s elongated thread of fate touched the wall, it immediately disappeared into it, and was not blocked or rebounded at all.

But the fate line into the wall is also a void, the line can not explore what, like into the ocean, the dark current surging, even want to go straight forward can not do, can only go with the flow.

The first day’s attempts ended when Leah came in to deliver the experimental data.

But Saul was not discouraged.

Leah didn’t leave in a hurry after telling Saul about the situation of Midol outside, but instead kneeled down on one knee and tried to provide Saul with magic power again.

But Saul waved his left hand and told her to get up.

“What I need now is not magic power.” Saul waited for Leah to get up before saying, “I can’t stay here all the time, can you ask for me, what exactly is the reason for keeping me here?”

Leah had actually gotten some information, but she didn’t have a high status in the Court of Judgment, so she couldn’t get in touch with the more secretive information, and she could only rely on her own guesses for many things.

“Lord Sol, I heard that Lord Flim went to the Black Flame Emperor immediately after the Black Tide passed, and the two seemed to have had another fight. It’s just that no one knows why they argued. Could it be related to you?”

Thinking of the Black Flame Emperor, Saul’s heart stirred, “Has the Stuart Wizard appeared?”

Stuart’s disappearance was a secret in the upper echelons of the Ruling Court, and until the Black Tide monsters were completely wiped out, most people didn’t know that the person who disguised the Black Flame Emperor at sea in the first place was Stuart.

But if the other party hadn’t died and been found, he would have appeared in front of people by now.

And even if he died, as long as he could retrieve a complete soul, Wizard Elloe, being of the fourth rank, should be able to resurrect Stuart just like Frim resurrected Royer.

“No, Wizard Stuart hasn’t been seen since the Black Tide appeared.” Leah shook her head, she didn’t really understand why Saul was bringing up Stuart.

Stuart hadn’t appeared yet, that meant he hadn’t been found yet. The Black Flame Emperor and Frim should be arguing over this matter.

After all, it was probably also Flim’s idea to have Stuart disguise Aero.

So could he get some inside information from Emperor Aello?

Saul glanced at Leah.

It was too difficult and conspicuous for Leah to approach Emperor Arrow. Right now, Leah was after all the only sorcerer who had direct contact with Saul. Her every move was bound to be monitored.

Saul needed a more stealthy way to inquire about Frim.

The Phantom Channel was also unable to connect because Saul was now in a place where his mental power was closed off. “Then we must create a chance to get out of here, even if it’s only for a short time.”

Saul thought of this and instructed Leah, “Can you see Royer?”

Leah nodded, “Lord Royer is often at the Red Sea, and most of the experimental data you asked for about Midol was given to me by Lord Royer.”

“Good, go tell Royer that no matter what, ask Lord Frim Court for me, what does he need me to do to let me go?”

Leah nodded, looking at Saul’s empty right arm, she was a little distressed, “My lord, why don’t you just absorb the magic power in my body, there are no elemental particles here, and it’s troublesome for you to do some experiments.”

Saul still refused her, “I only need to analyze some data for the time being, my current magic reserves are sufficient. If you can, you can just bring me some metal array disks and magic crystals next time.”

Leah nodded and reluctantly left.

After Leah left, Saul turned over a small metal nameplate in his hand.

It was the sorcery spell on the Soul Setting Needle he had gotten from Xander.

Previously, in order to deal with the Black Tide, as well as to transform the black branches that Midol was clinging to, he hadn’t continued to study the sorcery spell formation on the Soul Fixing Needle for a long time.

But now he once again took out the nameplate that had reproduced part of the spell formation and spent most of his time and energy on it.

When the next day came, after resting enough, Saul once again opened the scrying.

The Fate Line entered the Lost Cloisters, and once again it was like a fish in the sea, bewildered as to where to go.

This time, however, Saul was a little more comfortable controlling the thread of fate, and tried to guide it to probe farther.

The worlds that the Fate Line perceived now were all unchanged, but Saul believed that he would definitely be able to find anomalies as long as he searched more.

That right there could be the location of Sol’s breakthrough.

After all, this was also just a lost corridor for a fourth-ranked sorcerer, and it couldn’t be made perfect yet.

Finally, without knowing how long he had been exploring, Saul finally felt a trace of abnormal fluctuations.

He hastily maneuvered the thread of fate to swim towards that anomaly.

Just as Saul was groping for a way out of the Lost Cloister, Flim was in another identical cloister, listening to a report from one of the sorcerer’s men.

“Sorcerer Golza, the promotion to the fourth rank has failed.”

The henchman’s voice contained joy.

Frim, however, remained an expressionless mass of warm light.

“It’s normal to fail once in the promotion of the third rank to the fourth rank.”

Frim’s voice was also calm, but the fact that he wasn’t angry at this point actually already meant that he was in a pretty good mood.

Ever since the mermaid alienation body had attracted the backflow of Black Tide monsters, causing Frim to be forced to give up his plan to intercept Golza, he hadn’t been in a good mood.

Now things were finally not going in the worst direction.

Seeing this, the reporting sorcerer knew that Frim was still happy and hurriedly reported the next thing.

“However, I heard that Golza will hit the Fourth Order again within three years. Because it is rumored that the next Black Tide over the Wall of Sighs will come in force in three years.”

Frim was silent for a moment before saying, “Tell Wizard Murphy to let Golza leave the Wall of Sighs for a while, as agreed last time.”

“Yes.” The sorcerer in charge of reporting lowered his head deeply.
