"What's going on? We've completely lost contact with Desolate. Not only that, the teleportation gate to the Outer Battlefield seems to have been destroyed."
In Flame Realm, at the Scholar's Fortress, the three Great Earth Fire Scholars had been maintaining a stance of "being ready to support Desolate at any time" for some while now.
Among the three Great Earth Fire Scholars, Gus was proficient in divination, Lidzmat excelled in using poison, and leading them was Gus, who was the only person able to directly communicate with Lidzmat.
Gus's face suddenly changed as if receiving some new information, then he said, "It's fine now, we don't have to worry about the Outer Battlefield anymore."
Both Gus and Lidsmat looked over, "Why?"
They saw Gus's mouth curl into a strange smile, "Lord Lizmat has personally 'marked' the Outer Battlefield. Given this, whatever happens over there is of no concern to us anymore. The lord has already 'claimed' it."
