Chapter 574 A Bloody Gift?
When Vicente left Chase's estate, he encountered many magicians moving around the area where the sect's experts lived as Sovereigns' auras grew stronger.
Many didn't know exactly what had happened, so when they noticed the emergency alarms, they didn't go directly to Caleb's house, which had generated those signals. Some moved toward the sect's core, while others remained in position, waiting for word from the sect's leadership.
Vicente wasn't being hunted yet, so he moved, using what little mana he had left to hide his movements.
With Torne's help, he followed the path with fewer powerful people between him and the exit of this headquarters.
Getting into this place had been easy, but getting out would be a few levels more difficult.
'How are we going to leave this place, master?' Torne asked Vicente, feeling unsure of what to do when faced with a problem for the first time.
But Vicente was a former bank robber and a specialist escaping from Earth's prisons. Polaris Realm might be much more complicated than Earth because of the existence of magic, but since he had his own powers, he wasn't too worried about it.
Vicente had already drunk a recovery potion, and his mana reserves gradually improved as he moved. Then he said to Torne. 'The Sovereigns will be very busy finding out about Chase and Caleb's deaths in the next few minutes. I'll use that to my advantage to control the guards at one of the exits from this place!'
'That will leave traces of our passage, master.'
'Not if they kill themselves after I leave the area!'
With that, Vicente would soon arrive at one of the exits of this sect, where the group of guards in the area were already on alert for the sect's internal problem, having already completely sealed off the place with formations capable of isolating this area from the rest of Oldbarrow.
...
Forty-five minutes after Chase's death, Layla and Casey were nervously waiting for Vicente outside of the city in a cave where they had agreed to meet after the action that night.
With them were Dax's wife and son, both bound and sitting on the floor in a dark part of the cave.
The two masked youths paced back and forth nervously, worried about Vicente.
