Chapter 268 Lilith Saves the Day, Shifting the Blame



A simple test revealed nothing unusual to the archmages. However, the fact that Ellie's slime had reached level 68 attracted considerable attention.

At this moment, Luo Fan was concealing his aura and carefully accepting the inspection from these guys. In the distance, there was even a divine sense trying to scan over, but fortunately, it was stopped by Gandalf.

"What a strange slime!" someone muttered, but no one could figure it out.

"Caitlyn, all of our Ice Family members who went in have been wiped out. Was it your doing?" a Grand Magister shouted.

Caitlin didn't answer, after all, on paper, her group simply didn't have that kind of strength.

Others also realized this problem: Caitlin's current team only has a junior mage, which is a bit too weak.

"We don't have that kind of strength!" Freya refused to back down and shouted, "Are you all idiots? How could our small group possibly defeat your entire team?"

“However, Anya of the Haifir Empire suspects that you did it, saying that you colluded with the Void Bandits and wiped out many teams.”

Caitlin remained calm. "Does she have any evidence? I suspect she did it herself, otherwise she wouldn't have jumped out to shift the blame beforehand. Their team must be quite large!"

"This..." The other party was clearly hesitant.

A ruthless organization has emerged in the secret realm, killing several families, and it's said that even the Holy Light Cult's forces were wiped out.

"Little girl, do you dare let me search your soul?" An old voice came, and the ancestor of Fabings appeared nearby, looking at Caitlin, but his eyes were always on Daisy.

"Heh, you old codger, that's going too far!" Gandalf looked at the other party and flew ahead. Soon, the leaders of the Water God Cult also arrived, standing guard to the side, and the pro-royal forces also gathered.

The situation on the field suddenly became tense.

Luo Fan crouched in Ellie's arms, cautiously observing these powerful figures. He had countless ways to escape, but Ellie and the others would have a much harder time getting away. The old witch received my letter, but she refuses to come and see me!

Just then, that familiar voice rang in his mind, startling him so much that he shuddered.

She really came.

"You old geezers, why are you bullying a bunch of young girls? If you've got the guts, come and cause me trouble!"

Following the voice, a dark figure slowly appeared beside Ellie, looking at her daughter with satisfaction.

"Mother!" Ellie cried out and rushed over.

"Lilith, what brings you here?!" someone exclaimed, their voice trembling.

"Someone's even bullying my daughter! Why do you think I came out? Lissandra, you'd better control your people, or I won't be so lenient!"

"Heh, what's it to me! Come on, little girl, let me see your Snow Maiden. I feel she has the potential to become a god!" Lissandra appeared beside Daisy and urged her on.

Why have these two troublemakers both come out?! Gandalf was somewhat speechless, but fortunately, they had some advantages, so the possibility of a real fight was not high.

Just then, another woman appeared before them: Melissa, the Flame Witch, another research fanatic.

"Lilith, now you can tell me what you've discovered!"

"No rush, someone's already bullying me. Sisters, how about we do something big and kill this old bastard?" As she spoke, she touched Ellie's face and grabbed Luo Fan in her hand.

"Little one, are you surprised? Call me an old witch again, or I'll beat you up!"

She had overheard Luo Fan's previous complaints, and all he wanted to do was retreat back to his pet space.

"Oh, your magic core has changed. You must have drunk from the Fountain of Life by now. Little guy, you're really lucky!" Lilith said to Luo Fan telepathically while dealing with things outside.

"Hehe, it was all an accident. It's mainly because that tree spirit was too hospitable," Luo Fan replied with a smile. He didn't seem to need to be afraid of her anymore. But after all, she was his mother-in-law, so he still had to give her the respect she deserved.

Did you bring it for me?

"I brought it with me, and I found something even better that should be of great help to you!"

"Oh, what is it?"

"A sealed human dark inscription, more complete than the one on that carving knife."

This kid is exactly what I wanted; it wasn't for nothing that I came all this way to find him. In that case, there's no pressure about announcing my previous findings.

"I'm planning to publish the discovery on that carving knife. What are your thoughts?"

"Draw fire on that Haifier Empire? I like that. I'll do whatever my mother-in-law says." Luo Fan replied excitedly, the more chaotic the situation, the better.

"Hehe, you really satisfy me. In that case, I won't pursue the matter of you seeing other girls behind my back."

Luo Fan quickly agreed, afraid that the guy would change his mind.

Outside, the appearance of the three great witches immediately suppressed the arrogance of some people. The ice-elemental patriarch, who had been there earlier, stared at his most powerful and talented junior, seemingly saying something unintelligible.

The other families watched with amusement, probably waiting to see how things would unfold.

Melissa glanced at the crowd in the sky and said disdainfully, "There's no point in bullying that old geezer. Tell me quickly, what exactly did you discover!"

"Human inscriptions!"

The moment she uttered those words, all the magicians were shocked and stared at her expectantly. Even Lissandra rushed over, her expression quite serious, and stopped bothering Daisy.

"real?"

"Of course, am I the kind of person who talks big? You'll see for yourselves when you see this."

As she spoke, she pulled out a crystal bottle containing a black liquid with a unique inscription bound within. Two other witches gathered around, and a nearby holy mage was also carefully examining the contents.

"How can you be sure this is a human inscription? Where did you get it?" Lissandra asked, while Melissa was already deep in thought.

"Believe it or not, I still have no idea how to complete it; it's just a simple replica. As for where I got it from, the Haifir Empire has been conducting research in this area, and I stole it from them."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have announced it in this kind of setting. I'm really afraid they'll try to sabotage me!"

As Lilith explained, her gaze drifted far away, where several holy mages were eyeing the bottle before her with predatory intent.

"I heard they're still in contact with a human god!" After hearing Luo Fan's speculation, Lilith dropped another bombshell, immediately drawing the attention of many Saint Magisters.

"Don't worry, I won't be as inhuman as they are. I've even made a few copies of this thing; you can take them back and study them, and maybe you'll discover something amazing. But if you want to know more details, you'll have to go find those guys over there."

"Alright, I'll head over now. My daughter and I haven't seen each other for so long, we should find a quiet place to have a good talk."

After saying that, she threw out a few bottles and then led the group, controlling Toria's Xuanwu, flew towards the Empire.

Soon, the holy mages of the Heifel Empire arrived, attempting to seize the inscriptions, but they were divided up by several powerful families in the vicinity.

"She's lying! That's not the result of our research at all!" someone tried to argue, but many Saint Magisters still surrounded them, looking at them with great hostility.

“No, that inscription is too badly damaged to be recognizable. But I’m pretty sure it’s not a monster inscription.” Melissa realized this, only to find that the people around her had already left.

Upon hearing this news, almost everyone was in an uproar.

Even the research fanatic Melissa says so, so this thing is probably related to human inscriptions.
