Chapter 435 Cure

"Thank you for bringing this news to us… However, I still don't know how can we help you. Is there anything we can do about this news?" Vincent asked since he knows that bringing this news to them wasn't all.

"That's right… We're planning to create an escape route… No, we have already created an escape route in case we're unable to fight against these enemies…" Abe replied as he looked into Vincent's eyes.

Vincent thought for a moment and realized what he was implying…

"Regarding the escape route that you're talking about, it seems that only Master Ignacy can help you with it, is that correct?" Vincent asked.

"That's correct… Tower Master Ignacy together with six more Tower Masters like me has found another space dimension and we have developed it to make it our last bastion." Abe finally explained as Vincent realized how they were taking this seriously…

The last bastion…

It seems that only the Tower Master can actually open the path to this place so they needed him alive. No wonder they have to travel here and check his condition.

"I assume that only the Tower Master can open the entrance to this shelter, is that right?"

"Well, right now, only the Tower Master can open it… Previously, the six Tower Masters can just gather together and unseal the entrance… Unfortunately, two of us have already perished and their seals have disappeared. There was no way for the remaining four of us to open it anymore." Abe helplessly smiled after explaining it.

Vincent bit his lips as he just realized that two Tower Masters have already died because of this war. Their deaths are certainly the fall of their Tower as well. It means that the city they are protecting had most likely been destroyed or perhaps taken over by the enemy.

"So only Master Ignacy can open it alone… No wonder…" Vincent replied.

"That's right… If he's still not waking up, I'm thinking of bringing him with us to see the Wisemen of Solomon's Pillar. They should have a way to heal him since the Divine Doctor is residing there right now."

'Oh, they also have a Divine Doctor here.' Vincent thought as he considered it for a moment.

Honestly, he doesn't have the right to keep Ignacy here since he hasn't woken up yet and he doesn't know when will he.

Nevertheless, it wouldn't just be him who should be deciding this.

He looked at Shane and asked him for his opinion…

Since he doesn't know any of the Tower Masters, he can't really say whether he should trust these people.

Shane jolted after realizing that the question was passed over to him…

"Hmm… I'd really like to see Master Ignacy get better as well. However, isn't this too dangerous? The Black Magic Organization is everywhere and the Solomon's Pillar is quite far. You might encounter them on the way to their territory. There's also the threat of numerous Magic Beasts migrating to the south because of the changing season."

Shane expressed his worry. He would certainly do anything to make his Master get better but they might be putting him in an even more dangerous situation if they sent him out of the city's protection.

This is also Vincent's concern but he doesn't know how strong these people are or whether they are capable of protecting Ignacy on their journey.

Now that Shane also expressed his worry, Vincent decided to back him up.

"That makes sense… Should we try to wait for a while until our reinforcements arrive? If Master Ignacy hasn't woken up yet at that time, we will send someone to escort you to this Divine Doctor." Vincent added.

"Oh? You will have reinforcements? Are they a group of Grand Magus or Grand Knights?" Abe asked as he was interested in this reinforcement.

"No… They will be Celestial Beings. I've sent them out for while and they should be returning anytime soon. Speaking of which, I noticed that you haven't brought a Celestial Being with you. I'm pretty sure that the Tower Masters have one or two of their own."

Vincent said as he looked at his subordinates.

"Celestial Beings, huh… Although they are indeed incredibly strong to the point that they are so terrifying to meet on the battlefield, they can't use Elemental Arts without using a special weapon for it. They also can't fight for a very long time. At most, they are good at skirmishes or duels. We will normally hide them unless the other opponent we have uses them as well."

"I see… So it would always be Celestials versus Celestials…"

"That's correct. Aside from that, for Grand Magus like us, our Blood Essence is too important, especially during these turbulent times."

"That's true… Then, are these Celestials contracted to lower-rank mages in your tower?"

"Yes… We've selected those young talented Mana Practitioners that have a chance of becoming an Archmage."

Vincent nodded at this since this is just a polite word for saying that they've selected not-too-talented Mana Practitioners to get contracted to the Celestial Beings.

"I see… If possible I want to bring them on my side instead… Anyway, I can probably try that later on…"

"Hmm?" Abe raised his brows after hearing this.

Recruiting Celestials isn't easy after all. Most of the time, they will follow their instinct as they will be the ones looking for their possible contractors.

In the meantime, those Celestial Beings in the Towers were the Celestials of the previous generation.

Since the Celestials don't age, they would have to end their contract with the Magicians that has already grown too old since their Blood Essence has become too weak to satisfy them.

In these cases, these old magicians would recommend their disciples. Most of the time, the Celestials just can't be bothered to find another contractor and will just agree to them and get tied to the Tower again for another generation.

"It's nothing… In any case, I assume that you're fine waiting for a week or two, right?" Vincent said as he shifted the topic.

"That's fine… We're not planning to leave right away in the first place"

Abe replied as he then tried to check or investigate the potion that stabilized Ignacy's condition… After all, they heard from Shane and Turhan that Ignacy was on the brink of death when he arrived here.

They heard that only when Vincent used a special potion from his Interspatial Ring did he get better.

It is definitely something they wanted to see and appraise themselves.
