The people of the Heavenly Court would be going to Mystic City too?
Philip asked in surprise, “Why would they go there? Did something happen in Mystic City?”
Fennel said gravely, “I don’t know the specifics, but according to the information, something extraordinary seems to have appeared in Mystic City, which has attracted the attention of all parties. This time, I’m afraid we might run into many forces and acquaintances.”
“What is it? It has attracted so many people’s attention, and even the Heavenly Court that has always been hiding in the dark has sent some people over?” Philip asked.
Fennel said solemnly, “It’s said to be an object left by the ancient sages that can suppress the stargate. However, no one knows what it is. This is the rumor for now.”
At this point, Fennel paused and said, “I suspect that someone is secretly manipulating something. Mystic City may have become a chessboard for a certain big figure who’s making a move right now.”
Hiss!
Hearing this, Philip gasped and said, “Are you saying that all of us have become the chess pieces on that person’s chessboard and everyone heading to Mystic City are the chess pieces?”
Fennel nodded and said seriously, “It’s just my guess because it’s too much of a coincidence. It’s suddenly rumored that something belonging to the ancient sages has appeared in Mystic City just when we’re about to go over. Don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence?”
Hearing that, Philip frowned. Fennel had a point. It was too coincidental.
“What should we do, then?” Philip asked.
