“Alright, you can count on us. We’ll keep our mouths shut.”

Noland Lee lifted the door curtain and left, walking out of the campsite alone.

Before entering the campsite, he had covered himself with a cloak and hood to avoid bumping into Kent and the others.

After leaving the campsite, he circled around two gentle slopes. In a secluded area where no one could detect him, he transformed into a skull and flew towards the sky’s edge.

The Sword of Gold Traders’ Temporary Camp was situated to the east of the fissure, on top of a barren desert, about 10 kilometers away from the fissure.

For uninformed alchemists, this 10-kilometer distance might seem safe, enough to avoid the aberrations wandering around the fissure.

However, Noland was well aware that as a Seventh Ring Mental Wizard, Samuelson only needed to use the “Mind Beacon” to cast “Mind View” and could see the entire campsite at a glance.

According to the normal sequence of events:

As soon as the double-winged mutant tasked with transporting the Life Elixir failed to return to the fissure on time, Samuelson would employ mental magic and magic servants to actively search for the missing double-winged mutant.

Following the established transport route, he would find the battle site, then trace the battle marks and tracks on the Sand Sea to the temporary camp and finally locate the attackers of the transportation team through meticulous screening.

Even Noland, a second-rate Mental Wizard, could think of these tactics, let alone Seventh Ring Mental Wizard Samuelson.

If this situation did occur, then all those involved in this incident would be discerned by Samuelson’s “Mind View.”

But what if this situation didn’t occur?

For instance, Samuelson didn’t use mental magic to search for the lost Life Elixir, nor did he spy on the alchemists’ camp with his mental powers or attempt to attack the camp to reclaim the Life Elixir.

If these things didn’t happen, what would it imply?

That’s right, it would mean Samuelson couldn’t make the time or effort to focus on the events taking place above ground.

After losing the Life Elixir that spawned the aberrations, he could only silently bear the loss, unable to respond to the incident.

Because if he diverted his attention to plan the recapture of the Life Elixir, another more critical matter might suffer severe consequences, ultimately rendering his efforts futile.

This crucial matter that prevented Samuelson from diverting his attention was helping the aberrations complete their Magic Enlightenment.

During the process of aiding the aberrations with their Magic Enlightenment, Samuelson would be in a state where he couldn’t retaliate or retort.

In the entire Aberration Den, only the aberrations not participating in the Magic Enlightenment and the potentially existing Blackbone Hermit and Sergeant of Military Intelligence Department Five could respond to unwelcome intruders.

If Noland truly wanted to seize a large number of soul fragments, he couldn’t miss this opportunity.

His hypothesis was based on evidence.

In fact, before robbing the Life Elixir with Derek and the others, Noland had used the information provided by Denise Green to formulate a complete action plan.

It was well thought out, corroborated, and targeted the enemy’s vital points.

This plan covered predictions, interpretations, and countermeasures for all events within the next three months, comprehensive, and meticulous in its detail.

When Noland and Denise discussed this plan, her eyes sparkled with admiration.

In the plan, Noland mentioned a viewpoint:

Whether or not Samuelson’s mental magic appeared around the temporary camp within one to three hours of the Life Elixir arriving would be the decisive factor in verifying whether Samuelson was conducting Magic Enlightenment.

This would directly determine if Noland should raid the underground nest.

If the evidence showed that Samuelson indeed couldn’t afford to be distracted at the critical stage, then he shouldn’t blame Noland for taking advantage of the situation~

That ability to predict the course of events was something Noland possessed.
