Looking at the beautiful lady with a slight frown on her face, Noland Lee consoled her:

“Condolences, madam, life is always unpredictable. However, how did extraterrestrial space pollution appear here?”

Noland Lee was playing dumb with this question; his goal was to remove himself from this incident of the outbreak of extraterrestrial space pollution, and at the same time, guide Mabel to deal with the pollution zone at hand.

“I suspect it is related to the invasion of extraterrestrial space pollution that happened during the later period in the Golden Dynasty. This is the last recorded incident of an extraterrestrial space pollution invasion into the Golden Federation, recorded in the Star Filtering Net. When this pollution incident occurred, there were no magic institutions with an Ulnas circle inside the Golden Dynasty, so we couldn’t know the cause and result of the incident. What I said is not baseless conjecture. I have a certain basis of speculation.”

Mabel looked down at the Black City Spire, her eyes resting on the red smoke erupting from the spire.

She pointed in that direction:

“Look, the core location in the pollution zone is right there, in the hall of the spire. That place has sealed the Nest Core of the Great Rift. This means there is some connection between the appearance of the pollution zone and the Nest Core of the Great Rift. The Nest Core is something that first appeared in the history of the Golden Dynasty within 20 years after the incident of the extraterrestrial space pollution invasion. I didn’t associate the extraterrestrial space pollution invasion incident happening late in the Golden Dynasty with the Aberration. But now that it has been disclosed that the core location of the pollution zone is where the Nest Core is, I find it hard to stick to my original judgment.”

Mabel stressed her point:

“The Nest Core has a strong correlation with the pollution zone. I am 80% sure about this. What exactly is the relationship between the two? We need to go to the hall to find out.”

Mabel seemed somewhat excited for no reason:

“For a long time, the Alchemy Sanctuary has forbidden the Elemental Judgement from studying Aberrations. The tasks given to us by the Wizard Advancement Association have been delayed, showing no significant progress. I suspect that understanding the causes and effects between the Nest Core and the pollution zone will lead to breakthrough progress in the study of Aberrations. I must go to the hall to check it out.”

“In that case, madam, I suggest you change to a form that allows you to cast spells before you go,” Noland Lee said after some consideration:

“I found that the contaminants here desire flesh and blood to an extreme extent. If you can act in a magic form that doesn’t include flesh and blood like me, you will attract much less hostility.”

Mabel shook her head:

“Elemental spells that can turn the body into an element are high-level spells, and their durations are short. Before you came to help, I had already used it once. That’s the only time I can use it today.”

“I see…” Noland Lee knew that he had missed the chance to see the high-level elemental spells. Judging from Mabel’s description, that spell might be similar to ‘Death Incarnate’.”

At the scene, drawing the ‘Breath of the Dead’ on the magic scroll and then giving it to the others to use is a feasible method.

But considering there are still enemies downstairs and drawing a magic scroll is not to be taken lightly, Noland Lee momentarily put the idea of drawing a scroll on the spot out of his mind.

As for letting Mabel enter the flight status of a water sphere appearance and then go to inspect the Spire Hall, this doesn’t seem realistic.

Because the water sphere is a special effect of the flight spell, Mabel can only cast a spell after she has left the flight status. As soon as she is attacked, she will be forced to revert to her original form.

So, using a flight spell to inspect the hall is a last resort.

Let’s wait and see how the situation turns out, then decide whether or not to draw a magic scroll.

Clapping his hands together, Noland Lee said:

“I’ll go scout out the area first. Once I have confirmed the situation inside, I will come back and consult with you.”

Mabel acknowledged with a nod.

The cleaning-up of the spoils of war at the scene was half done.

Pointing at the remains of the Blood Sun Converters left behind, Noland Lee asked knowingly:

“What’s your take on these bizarre flesh constructs?”

Mabel gave her judgment:

“I haven’t studied about the making of flesh constructs, so I’m afraid I cannot provide a valuable opinion. What I do know is that these flesh constructs were transformed from Aberrations. I saw with my own eyes how the Aberrations lingering in the corridor suddenly exploded and morphed into monsters.

“This is probably a type of pollution product caused by extraterrestrial space pollution that we’ve yet to discover. This type of extraterrestrial space pollution has the ability to transform flesh and blood into minions. Its minions can evolve through devouring large amounts of flesh and blood, and they can also burrow into things made of flesh and blood, controlling enemies. Those humanoid species, the size of a small mountain, were controlled by the pollutant, which is why they attacked us.”

Mabel paused, looking confusedly at the polluted giant above:

“But it’s strange, these giants with feathered wings, they don’t seem to have ever appeared in our vision, right? Could they also be a product of extraterrestrial space pollution?”

Picking up from where she left off, Noland Lee added, “Is it possible that they are remnants from the ancient epoch?”

The two of them began discussing.

Noland Lee did not directly mention the origin of the angels.

He believes that given the curiosity of the wizards, understanding the origins of the Artificial Angels and the Blood Sun Converters is just a matter of time.

Noland Lee just wants to play the role of a “corrector”, keeping the wizards from deviating from the right path and leading to new disasters.
