Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 599 - 117 Crisis Moment

"And you, Dream Eater? What do you think?"

At this moment, after discussing among themselves, the others began to seek her opinion as well.

"This matter is very important, and I cannot make a decision at the moment, but I will give everyone an answer before the task settlement... Remember: haste breeds chaos."

With a polite smile that kept others at bay, Lina did not immediately express her stance and skillfully played Tai Chi.

However, before everyone had reached a conclusion, all the trialists suddenly received a message from Fiona.

[The four powerful Nightmare Spirits that left earlier have now returned to this world! Please be careful of your safety, try to avoid acting alone to prevent danger.]

"Did you receive the message? The Four Nightmares have returned to this world!?"

Suddenly receiving the girl’s message, a trialist was somewhat surprised.

"I also received the message. This feeling seems to be a notification sent by the Queen of the Dream World through the power of rules."

After identifying the source of the notification, the Dress Hound [Dream Ferryman] confirmed that this message was not a trap set by a Nightmare Spirit.

"What should we do then? Should we return to the city now, or should we go to check on the situation of the Four Nightmares?"

"I think we could possibly observe the situation of the Four Nightmares from a distance, to verify the result of their previous pursuit in killing the King of Nightmare Spirits."

Considering the question from other trialists, the Griffin thought for a moment and then quickly made up its mind.

"However, first of all, we should return to the city to seek the Queen and find out the exact locations of the Four Nightmares at the moment..."

But speaking, the Griffin suddenly realized that his need had already been met.

Fiona sent another piece of information, detailing the current specific distribution of the Nightmare Spirits across the entire Dream World.

"It seems our Queen Her Majesty has already considered this point. As such, I am now going to scout the situation of Lilith of Lust. If anyone has the same idea, feel free to join me."

With that, the Griffin flapped its wings decisively and took off first. After grasping the Griffin’s intent, the rest also set out one after another.

A battle between the Four Nightmares and the King of Nightmare Spirits is inevitable; there will definitely be a loser no matter who wins.

The return of four Nightmare Spirits instead of one suggests that the Four Nightmares did not succeed, but rather let the King of Nightmare Spirits escape successfully.

Otherwise, if any of the Four Nightmares had successfully devoured the King of Nightmare Spirits and significantly increased their strength, they would have also devoured the other three Nightmares.

Now, after the fierce battle, the strength of the Four Nightmares must have been somewhat diminished, which presents an opportunity.

"Dream Eater, who do you plan to choose this time?"

After the Griffin left, the Hound looked towards the Duchess, intending to see her opinion.

"Then, I choose..."

But just then, her eyes slightly flickered, sensing some special connection.

"I am sorry, everyone, I need to handle some urgent matters, my apologies."

With that, Lina immediately rose and flew away.

"Tsk, always so mysterious."

Watching her receding figure, the Dream Ferryman, the hound, snorted disdainfully.

Others were also somewhat puzzled, but since everyone has their secrets, and as long as their own safety is not endangered, there is no need to actively delve into others’ affairs, or else it is easy to make enemies.

After parting from the group, Duchess Lina landed and took out a crystal ball from her bosom.

This was a communication tool agreed upon with Marquis Winter, and at this moment, the crystal ball lit up and was flashing.

"I have reached this world again. How have things been here during this time? What about the King of Nightmare Spirits? And Fei... Is the Queen of the Dream still here?"

The moment the image connected, the other side, Marquis Winter, started bombarding her with questions like rapid gunfire.

Previously, his physical body had been forcibly dispersed by the King of Nightmare Spirits in the Dream World, which greatly angered Marquis Winter, feeling that he had been tricked.

Although it was a cunning trick, it was indeed effective in delaying him, forcing him to spend time reconstructing a new dream body.

Now, Marquis Winter had not only restored but also specifically fortified his dream body, planning to avenge the previous arrow and see if there was still a chance to take Fiona away.

His biggest worry now was that the King of Nightmare Spirits would move Fiona away before his arrival, missing this rare opportunity completely.

Marquis Winter now only hoped that his last strike before his body dissipated could effectively weaken the King of Nightmare Spirits, allowing Fiona to withstand its attacks.

Fortunately, the reply from the Dream Eater, Lina, alleviated his concerns.

Learning that his strong supporter had returned to this world, Lina, overjoyed, quickly detailed how the King of Nightmare Spirits had been defeated and fled, chased by the Four Nightmares, and then reappeared.

As for the current specific situation of the King of Nightmare Spirits, Lina was not clear, but the fact that the Four Nightmares did not show signs of sudden strength indicated they had not succeeded.

"Very well, I understand now,"

After hearing Lina’s explanation, Marquis Winter breathed a sigh of relief.

Clearly, due to his prior self-destructive attack, the King of Nightmare Spirits’ strength had been severely damaged, to the extent that it could not even defeat a little girl under Seventh Rank, which was a disgrace to the Ninth Rank.

That the opponent, despite being severely injured, managed to escape the pursuit of the Four Nightmares, must have involved some special trump card. But its current situation definitely would not be easy, and at least for a while, the threat from the King of Nightmare Spirits was considered negligible.

After thinking it through, Marquis Winter decided against immediately going to the lair of the King of Nightmare Spirits to seek trouble.

The value of Fiona outweighed his need for revenge. If Fiona were to disappear again while he sought revenge during that time, it would be a loss much greater than the gain.

After assessing the current situation, Marquis Winter didn’t hesitate any longer but concealed his figure and hurried towards the palace in the Incredible Country.

At the same moment that Marquis Winter was rushing over, Anvis, who had just returned to Fiona’s side, suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.

Some strong unknown danger was approaching!

Anvis quickly performed a simple Divination Ceremony, but the result was blurry, yielding no valuable information.

This unusual phenomenon indicated that the enemy’s strength likely exceeded his capacity for prophecy.

An enemy that could not be foreseen by an Eighth Rank Prophet most likely belonged to the Ninth Rank!

After some thought, Anvis quickly narrowed it down to only two possibilities.

Marquis Winter and Marquis Beixi!
