Why are you back again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hunter spoke in a low tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where’s that Kessler Clan kid who was following you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I left him in the Northwest Domain,\" Evans replied, looking at the Hunter with a complex gaze. \"I’m back this time specifically to find you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the matter?\" The Hunter’s tone was indifferent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You still have the key to the Star Tower, don’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why are you asking about that?\" The Hunter’s tone finally showed a hint of fluctuation. \"Do you want to take back the Star Tower key?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evans shook his head and said, \"Not me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the Hunter immediately realized something was wrong and quickly retreated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the next instant, several scarlet beams of light suddenly attacked from all directions, hitting his body almost simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a pop, the Hunter disappeared like a shattered bubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A mirrored clone, huh? Quite cautious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man in a gray robe appeared out of thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another man in a green robe slowly emerged from a tree trunk ten meters away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His skin was brown like the trunk, covered in crack-like grooves, resembling dry tree bark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mirrored clone can’t be too far apart; he’s still in this forest. From the moment he stepped in here, he was destined not to escape.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if to validate the words of the man in the green robe, a dense rustling sound suddenly came from four or five hundred meters away, as if numerous leaves were rustling down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up, countless branches rose up as if alive, thrashing wildly in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the flying branches, the Hunter was dodging left and right, trying to break out of the encirclement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if a switch had been flipped, a dozen figures rushed out from the surrounding woods to surround the Hunter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching this scene, Evans sighed deeply under the tree and closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, a cry of unwilling anger came from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the sound quickly faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wizard apprentices involved in the attack returned, led by an ordinary-looking man with scales on both cheeks, who wore an unmistakable smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected, that guy had the keys to the Star Tower, and he had four of them, even more than we had anticipated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now we’re only one short of filling the gap.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the green robe nodded in satisfaction, then turned to a gloomy and small-framed man, asking in a deep voice, \"Fabio, what information did you extract from the Hunter’s soul?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man called Fabio weighed the Soul Crystal in his hand, speaking in a hoarse voice, \"This guy resisted intensely, so I had to use some methods. His soul is quite shattered, and the information gained isn’t much, but it’s just what we needed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As you guessed, the Eternal Life Association is already destroyed, and it was the Forest Cabin that killed them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, now the Forest Cabin only has six people left, oh, excluding this unlucky guy, so now there are only five.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They all have keys to the Star Tower, especially a Wizard Apprentice named Sunan, who likely possesses more than one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scaly man licked his lips and said, \"Then why not target Sunan directly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think it’s better to change the target,\" Fabio suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the green robe raised an eyebrow, \"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From the Hunter’s memories, that Wizard Apprentice Sunan is very strong. Saulo died at his hand, and he controls a powerful force called the Star Alliance. Even if we could take him down, it would probably cost us some casualties.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, the others shook their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Wizard Apprentice who can take down Saulo is not to be underestimated, better not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, we just need one more key, anyone will do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Change the target.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren’t willing to be part of Fabio’s ’casualty cost’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the green robe followed the advice, \"Then let’s change the target.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evans secretly regretted it when he heard this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If these people made a move against Sunan, there might be a chance for mutual destruction, giving him an opportunity to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, they were too cunning and cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the man in the green robe turned to Evans and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Evans, where is the Star Tower?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evans replied with a bitter expression, \"I’ve said many times, I can only roughly sense the general area where the Star Tower will appear, I can’t be more specific.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scaly man snorted coldly, \"A radius of three or four hundred kilometers is too broad!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s nothing I can do; this sensing ability is related to my power level. If you help me break into the Tier Four Legendary Realm, I could sense it more clearly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scaly man squinted his eyes, his gaze coldly fixed on Evans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evans stared back fearlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man in the green robe interrupted their tense atmosphere, speaking in a somewhat calmer tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Evans, we signed an Oath Contract; as long as you help us enter the Star Tower, we won’t trouble you afterward and help you break through to become a Tier Four Legendary Knight, so it’s best if you don’t have any other thoughts. It’s better for both of us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evans sneered inwardly but outwardly acted as if he was aggrieved and helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>",951,"2026-06-06T02:33:43.453Z",1,"novelbin.me","74626651bb04b4304c1b461f67b86119d0491e42516c7f5f52b8fd9327eb5a8a","synthetic-wizard-chapter-266","synthetic-wizard-chapter-158",369,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsynthetic-wizard-cover.jpg"]
