osphere.""Okay, I won't make things up."Satisfied with her answer, Wu Lianyi happily left.That stone was the one she threw. During Li Gang's three years of high school, he bullied the original body r...These people trapped in the sea of fire didn't give up struggling, they removed their cloaking devices and huddled together, activating a protective sphere-like energy field that shielded them from being incinerated.

The people floating in mid-air looked at the group of short, mouse-like figures with frowns. This was clearly not a race from their magical continent.

In the magical continent, everyone's average height is over six feet tall. Regardless of gender, adults never have short stature. Even during childhood, their growth rate is very fast. These children are under five feet tall and their facial features are too compact, giving people the first impression that they are ugly.

Now these people are hiding in the light sphere, seemingly trying to save themselves. They're fiddling with a black metal box while also watching the ripples.

"Lotus, look at them. They seem to be preparing to run away."

Raúl said, arms crossed.

"It looks like... I don't know what that black box is for."

Helena held the sword in her hand and said, "She hadn't expected to find the rumored invaders as soon as she arrived on the Eastern Continent."

"We need to find a way to break through their defenses. They must be using something to escape our magic circle."

Leia also spoke up.

"I'll handle breaching the defenses, you guys get ready to extract. Don't get consumed by the flames."

With a flick of his wrist, Lian Yi grasped the Lei Yao Sword in his hand.

"Understood!"

Everyone agreed in unison, and the traveling mage from the caravan was already prepared. Tonight was a night of humiliation for him; one member of the caravan had already died. If it hadn't been for Young Master Lian's quick reflexes, after those dwarves broke through his protective magic formation, it would have been them who were unlucky.

Lian Ri directly flung Lei Yao, aiming for the defensive light sphere. Lei Yao transformed into a purple ray and arrived instantly, piercing through the opponent's light sphere defense. Afterward, purple lightning threads covered the entire sphere. Lei Yao's sword tip pierced the black iron box, causing the group of gnomes to erupt in anger.

Before they could raise their defenses again, a raging inferno engulfed those who had invaded. The onlookers each used their abilities to fish out the invaders they had their eyes on.

Laya and Raje instantly retracted their magic arrays. The campsite's flames extinguished, returning to its original state in a moment, except the previously erected tents were reduced to black ash.

They captured eight invaders over there. Two of the invaders were consumed by flames the moment the defense shield broke open at the edge of the energy sphere, leaving only ashes behind.

It seems like our harvest is quite good this time.

Looking at the invaders who were either knocked unconscious or imprisoned by magic formations, Ripple's divine consciousness instantly pierced into their minds, reading their memories at the fastest speed possible, and then instantly withdrew, leaving the leader of the invaders only time to let out a scream before losing consciousness.

"Young Master Lian, thank you for your help. Otherwise, we would definitely have been controlled by them."

The White family caravan leader immediately stepped forward to express his gratitude.

"We are comrades, of course we advance and retreat together!"

R ripples smiled and said.

"Young Master Lian, what should we do with these people"

The leader looked completely obedient.

They definitely still have comrades. These guys failed in their ambush and lost contact for a long time. The remaining comrades will surely come looking. We can't stay here any longer, we need to set off tonight and reach the next city before dawn.

And we need to contact the Mage Association as soon as possible, turn these guys in to them. The Archmages will definitely be interested in them and could find out everything we want to know.”

Ripple said without any hesitation.

Actually, she had already learned the intruder's details by reading the leader's memories. However, she couldn't tell everyone directly because her ability—reading minds—was something people in this magical continent wouldn't understand.

"Alright, I'll follow Lian Shao's instructions. We will handle this here and make sure that even if the other party finds us, they won't be able to track us down."

Vincent Waite, leading the charge, immediately spoke up.

"Everybody, get ready, we're leaving now!"

Everyone heard the conversation between the two just now, and naturally obeyed unconditionally.

With the prisoners in tow, they marched through the night, leaving the rocky outcrop behind.

Two hours after they left, several transparent figures arrived here, but found nothing. These invaders probed and tried to track them for a while, but it was too late. When they saw the distant city, they knew their companions were gone without a trace, and immediately returned to their original location, taking the remaining companions and leaving their previous hiding place.

The Mage Association's outpost in Moonlit City welcomed a special group of guests. Luna, who was initially somewhat nonchalant, immediately summoned her teacher, the Archmage Yurice Hersch, at top speed upon seeing the invading dwarves.

Yuri was surprised. It had been so long since the Eastern Continent put out a wanted list, and they'd only caught a few scattered invaders. This caravan, plus a few minors, resulted in eight captures, and they were all alive. She couldn't help but take it seriously.

After receiving a message from student Luna, she appeared directly at the headquarters of the Mage Association and communicated with Vincent White and young Lian Rodman. She took over the controlled invader and promised to tell them anything they asked, so that they would be prepared.

At the same time, Yulis fulfilled her bounty. Looking at the piles of gold coins, high-grade medicinal herbs, and miniature magic arrays crafted by a grand mage inside the spatial pouch, everyone expressed their satisfaction. Having received their rewards, they left the mages' guild outpost contentedly.

"Come on, let's indulge ourselves a little. Let's stay at the Linlang Castle for two days and rest up before we continue our journey."

The most famous residence in Mingyue City is not just luxurious, but most importantly, safe. After last night's events, everyone's nerves are on edge and needs to rest for two days in a safe environment.

"Well then! I've only heard the name of this castle before, but I've never actually stayed here. This time, I'm going to enjoy myself!"

Raul responded first, and the others naturally had no objections. So a group of people went to the Linlang Castle to rest.

While Yulisse Hisse brought eight unconscious invaders through a magic portal directly to the Mage Association in the Eastern Continent, her priority was to pry information from their mouths.

On the other side of the western continent, the Kenny family had received news of Lian's arrival on the eastern continent. They immediately relayed the message to their already bribed contacts and waited patiently for the other party to eliminate the threat for them.

And Emilio has been in high spirits lately because he met the girl of his dreams. The two have been going on dates frequently recently, leading everyone around him to believe that good things are coming for Emilio.

Only Connor Rodman watched with cold eyes, neither stopping their relationship nor encouraging Emilio. He just privately arranged for someone to thoroughly investigate this Nana Miss's background.roat.Liàn yī swiftly drew out a Zi Lei Fu, slapping it on the other's head.
