Chapter 548: Space Passage
If the Sixth Ring Tower had actively embraced the Abyss Plane, it should have continued to grow and prosper in the Abyss Plane.
However, from the current situation, the Sixth Ring Tower is not in the Abyss Plane.
As a demon from the Abyss Plane, Toad has never encountered other wizards since awakening in the Abyss Plane these years.
This indirectly proves that the Abyss Plane doesn't contain any trace of the Sixth Ring Tower; they are not inside the Abyss Plane.
The Boundary Land was most likely a place the Sixth Ring Tower found later for settlement, but the process in between is currently unknown.
Herag immediately recalls the historical records from the Land of Dawn. The accounts and descriptions of the Sixth Ring Tower there are very consistent, labeling the Sixth Ring Tower as a betrayer.
Now it seems, there indeed are hidden circumstances behind it.
Herag couldn't help but recall one of the conditions Acorn mentioned to Randy: removing the invading wizards from the Wizard Plane and driving them back.
From this, Herag feels that the Boundary Land surely doesn't have a favorable attitude towards the Wizard Plane, but it seems it's not a matter of deep-seated hatred.
Otherwise, the wizards of the Boundary Land would surely have immediately taken action to eliminate them upon discovering the wizards from the Wizard Plane.
But now it has merely become a condition for negotiation with the Elf Race, action is optional.
The Wizard Plane is clearly not regarded as a threat by the Boundary Land, deemed insignificant.
Herag thought that the wizard he encountered on the Demon Plane is most likely from the Boundary Land.
They appear in various planes, and probably can reach the Wizard Plane too.
Yet until now, there has been no news about other wizard influences invading, otherwise the Wizard Plane would have been desolate.
But from the Wizard Plane's perspective, those who know of the Boundary Land evidently fear it greatly.
Parker, severely injured, stayed silent, quietly healing in the Floating City.
Neither the Expedition Team nor the Wizard Alliance has voiced any opinions, all remaining silent on the matter.
Herag speculates they probably want neither other wizards to know about the existence of the Boundary Land, nor want to provoke it.
They dare not provoke the Boundary Land, dare not to have conflict with it.
Even if they suffered losses, they can only swallow them silently, and even plan to retreat from the Elf Plane.
This suggests the upper echelons of the Wizard Plane surely understand what kind of place the Boundary Land is, knowing its formidable strength makes it untouchable.
As it stands, the cooperation between the Boundary Land and the Elf Plane is an inevitability, just a matter of time.
Once the cooperation is achieved, whether the Expedition Team is willing or not, they will certainly retreat from the Elf Plane.
Herag can't help but think of a concern: if the Expedition Team were to retreat, it would be very difficult for him to come to the Elf Plane again.
The Teleportation Altar is surely under the control of the Expedition Team, and without a reasonable excuse, it would be impossible for him to go to the Elf Plane.
Furthermore, if the Expedition Team has retreated from the Elf Plane, wanting to go there would seem too suspicious.
Herag pondered that this issue must be resolved, or else the Elf Plane cannot serve as a fallback plan.
He immediately asked Toad: "Do you have any means to allow me to come to the Elf Plane from the Wizard Plane? The Expedition Team will probably retreat, and they surely wouldn't want conflict with the Boundary Land."
Toad is very capable, with high proficiency in spatial rules, perhaps he might have a solution.
After thinking for a while, Toad said: "If I could find the location of the Expedition Team's spatial channel, I would be able to reach the Elf Plane without relying on their Teleportation Altar."
"Spatial channel's location?" Herag was slightly puzzled.
Toad explained: "The establishment of a spatial channel requires time and effort. The Expedition Team surely exerted great energy to set up the spatial channel to the Elf Plane. Even if they retreat from the Elf Plane, the spatial channel still remains."
The spatial channel painstakingly created by the Wizard Plane won't be destroyed so easily.
This means, even if the Teleportation Altars are shut down, the spatial channel still exists.
It's like a road; although both ends are closed, the road doesn't cease to exist.
Herag asked: "How do we find the spatial channel's location?"
"Aimlessly searching would take a lot of time, but if I use the Teleportation Altar, I can quickly locate the spatial channel's position." Toad said.
The Teleportation Altar itself connects to the spatial channel, and with Toad's spatial proficiency, simply interacting with the altar might help locate the spatial channel.
Once the spatial channel is located, Toad would become a mobile teleportation altar, able to freely move between the two planes.
Previously at Base 27, Herag didn't bring Toad along mainly to avoid other wizards discovering anything unusual about Toad.
But in truth, if Toad completely hides its aura and maintains the state of a normal toad, it's very hard for others to notice anything peculiar about him.
Back when Fran attacked, Toad only revealed its true form before Fran realized its extraordinary nature.
Herag simply chose not to bring Toad along out of caution.
Now for the matter of the spatial channel, he has to take Toad along on his next visit to the base.
The strongest at Base 27 now is merely a Level 2 Wizard, with not a single Level 3 Wizard.
With Level 2 Wizard's strength, discovering Toad's secrets would still be quite difficult.
Herag glanced over at Chatiya's side, Chatiya was now back to her princess life, surrounded by numerous attendants and guards.
He doesn't have to worry about Chatiya for the moment, she will surely fare well with the elves.
Since he had sent Chatiya back and obtained the desired information, Herag planned to return.
But before leaving, there was one more thing to handle.
Herag took out the Black Space, and upon entering, saw that the White Deer was still lying outside the cabin, same as always.
The only difference was that Chatiya was no longer inside the cabin.
The White Deer had been gazing in the direction of the cabin, but upon seeing Herag, it actually stood up and slowly walked over, looking at him.
Its gaze seemed to be asking Herag where Chatiya had gone.
Upon seeing the White Deer's eyes, Herag understood and said: "Chatiya went home. She is the elf princess, she must go back home."
After hearing this, the White Deer's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, then looked up at the sky and unexpectedly let out a cry.
The sound was long and mournful, echoing within the Black Space.
