Chapter 427: 146. Strong-willed as desired_5

Translator: 549690339

After realizing Noland Lee’s extraordinary potential, Morster did three things in three days.

First, he collected the information on wizard criminals in Black City. He had already prepared the materials.

Second, he reopened the investigation into the case of Noland Lee Jarvis and his family, with the involvement of the Death Herald Guild as the reason.

The charges against Noland Lee Jarvis were erased, and his family’s debts disappeared.

Noland’s panel changed the status of “Identity 1: Sin Soldier” and “Identity 2: Debtor” from “invalid” to “terminated.”

The third thing Morster did was to arrest and bring Kassandra to justice.

Just before noon the day before Noland and Philia’s conversation, Kassandra, the culprit who framed Noland Lee Jarvis and his family, had been executed.

Noland learned the news through the changes on his panel information.

At the moment of Kassandra’s death, the “Remark” column in “Soul Freeze” stated:

“All hatred has vanished with that gunshot. You have fulfilled your vow to the Original Master. The soul contract between you and the Original Master has been completed. ‘Soul Freeze’ will now be a spell completely under your control.”

Noland thought the matter of revenge might go awry, but everything turned out simpler than he expected.

As his identity, status, and strength increased, he gradually became accustomed to solving difficult problems easily.

Looking back at his experiences in Suffering Borderland, Noland had no negative emotions.

He knew that if he went to the Suffering Borderland now, Morster would treat him as an honored guest rather than a criminal.

Even Cavado, who was questioned for Incasa’s death, would have to salute Noland and shout “Welcome!” when they met.

Life is full of wonders.

Strength is key.

Only with strength comes respect.

“Noland, I think you’re right. We do need to learn more about Black City before we send battle mages after Samuelson,” Faced with Noland’s proposal, after half a minute’s consideration, Philia decided to accept it:

“I’ll discuss it with my teacher. Wait for me.”

Noland watched Philia leave the guest room.

He leaned back in his chair, gazing at the blooming flowers in the garden outside the window, and silently said:

“Denise, please pass this message for me. Elemental Judgement may seek Morster’s advice. Tell Morster to be prepared.”

“Alright.” Denise responded gently.

After two minutes, she spoke again:

“It’s done. I passed the message to Adelaide. She’d like me to convey her thanks.”

“Alright, I understand. That’s all the help I can provide,” Noland picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and eased his mind.

“Lee, aren’t you going to retrieve alchemy weapons from the Fissure Corridor? I have a major news update,” Denise said excitedly. Noland could almost see her smiling face.

Denise took a deep breath and continued:

“I’m at the Lower Town branch of the Alchemy Cathedral right now. Just 10 minutes ago, the Alchemy Cathedral issued an announcement. After three days of continuous investigation, the Cathedral determined that two of the six local Re-forged Association elders, betraying the Sanctuary, and some Razor Gang members also committed similar crimes.

“The ground sectors and underground passages managed by these two Re-forged Association elders will be reclaimed by the Sanctuary from the day of the announcement. A month later, the Alchemy Cathedral will hold an auction and the ownership of Sector 5 and 6 will be decided through bidding. In the month before the auction, the sectors will be taken over by the Alchemy Cathedral, and the Fissure Corridor below the sectors will become ownerless.”

“Ownerless?” Noland paused:

“What does that mean? Anyone can go?”

“It’s more than just anyone can go,” Denise giggled:

“In an ownerless Fissure Corridor, you can search for alchemy materials in resourceful Sage Spaces. Everything you replace in the ownerless corridor is yours, with no interference from any alchemist factions.

“Besides, battles in the ownerless corridor will not be supervised by the Alchemy Cathedral or alchemist forces. No one has the right to blame you for your actions. I know you will not attack security company personnel, but that doesn’t stop you from targeting random gang members.”

Noland raised an eyebrow.

Isn’t this the Alchemy Cathedral’s opening of an unrestricted red zone?

Free PK in the zone without penalty, equipment freely dropped, bought, and sold without restrictions.

Hiss.

It’s like a server-wide event.

This piqued Noland’s interest.

“Denise, can I also take the Sage particles from the ownerless corridor?”

“Yes, it’s fine. ‘Ownerless’ means no one governs it. You can even set up roadblocks in a layer of the corridor and charge a toll for passing through it.”

Denise paused before adding:

“However, be careful about one thing. There used to be an unwritten rule in the Fissure Corridor that alchemists of the sixth rank and above couldn’t appear within the 20th underground layer. Because if conflict breaks out among these high ranks within the 20th underground layer, it might affect civilians on the ground level. Now, this unwritten rule is broken. You may encounter sixth rank and above alchemists within the 20th underground layers of Sector 5 and 6. Be careful. Many high-ranking alchemists specialized in combat will gather within the 20th underground layers to stake a claim for their faction.”
