Around the corner of the corridor.
“Lord Silear, what on earth is going on?”
Colin asked the mature male wizard in front of him, who was combing his hair back, with a puzzled look.
Just as he was about to follow Milo and the others towards the upper levels, Silear’s mental transmission suddenly appeared in his mind.
Silear was unharmed, but the name mentioned by Silear prompted him to stay.
“Where is Senior Lillian?”
Colin looked around and asked in a deep voice.
Silear looked at him with relief, speaking with a hint of urgency, “There’s no time to explain, Colin. You only need to know that it was Lillian who sent me to get you! Hurry and follow me; I’m taking you to a safe place!”
As Silear spoke, he led Colin forward.
Colin narrowed his eyes, fixedly watching Silear’s retreating figure without moving.
Lillian’s room was on the upper levels, but the direction Silear was heading did not lead upwards; instead, it went further down.
“What are you waiting for?! Colin, hurry up!” Silear urged as he looked back, and seeing that Colin wasn’t moving, he quickly circled back, explaining softly, “The adults anticipated this attack; there are traitors among us, and those monsters are attacking upwards. The safe place isn’t on the topmost level but on the very bottom!”
Silear’s words fit like the final piece of a puzzle, linking everything together.
Superbrain worked at a rapid pace, and in an instant, Colin understood everything.
Wasn’t this all just a repeat of the Hua Pei district incident?!
The Nine Major Schools were carrying out a secret operation once again, concealing it from other wizards like him, pretending to be unaware, allowing the Divine to attack the airship. The purpose, surely, was to flush out the potential traitors among them!
No, that wasn’t the point… A chill ran down Colin’s back.
It meant that the incident in the Hua Pei district hadn’t completely eradicated all hidden Divine Believers…

In other words, some Divine Believers simply couldn’t be identified by the wizards!
Otherwise, the Nine Major Schools wouldn’t have resorted to such primitive means of purging traitors…
“Lord Silear, how did you know all this?”
As his thoughts whirled, Colin suddenly thought of a question and asked cautiously.
There was an almost imperceptible pause from Silear.
Then, with some embarrassment, he spoke, “Eugene told me. Apart from the Nine Major Schools, the High Rank Wizards of our affiliated Schools were also aware. And though Eugene often seems indifferent, in reality, he cares very much for us members of the School…”
Before Silear could finish, Colin immediately grasped his meaning.
It was apparent that since the Nine Major Schools had informed the High Rank Wizards of the affiliated Schools.
They had not intended to keep the rest of the affiliated School wizards in the dark.
Whether the wizards below Second Rank knew about this depended entirely on the mood of the High Rank Wizard of their School.
The reason he was unaware of this… clearly, Herard was meddling, attempting to withhold his Magic Stone subsidy!
Silear’s next words confirmed Colin’s thoughts.
“…So I found out about this message, as for why you, Lord, did not,” Silear paused, then vaguely added, “Herard is one of only two students of Eugene.”
Bang!!
The wind howled, and metal screeched sharply.
At that moment, another explosion sounded from not far away.
“This place isn’t safe. Let’s move quickly, Lord Colin! The Low Rank Wizards of the Nine Major Schools and we informed wizards of the affiliated Schools are all down at the lowest level.”
Silear glanced at the distant explosion, feeling a slight heaviness in his heart, and urged Colin on quickly, “The High Rank Wizards are already aware of this event and must have prepared a comprehensive response. I estimate that the chaos will subside in at most half an hour. Before then, we better hurry to the lower levels to hide. Otherwise, should any mishaps occur, it would really not be worth it!”
While saying this, Silear continued walking forward.
‘The lower levels are safe…’ Colin subconsciously looked back.
The figures of Milo and others had already disappeared…
It was unexpected that she, an affiliated School wizard, was also unaware of this, just like him.
As for Mayer and Sovoc… No wonder he hadn’t seen them on the way out; they had probably already hidden down at the lower levels.
With a soft sigh in his heart, Colin turned his gaze away and followed Silear.
Now wasn’t the time for such reflections.
Combining the information he knew, he believed that what Silear said about the lower levels being genuinely safe was most likely true, believing that the High Rank Wizards on the airship were already aware…
But Silear… For some reason, he felt something was amiss.
However, it was not appropriate to delay any longer, so he followed for now.
As Colin ran, he kept a close watch on Silear’s back, his superbrain rapidly processing.
Every action of Silear, from the movement of his eyes to the muscles on his face, each detail was meticulously analyzed in his mind once more.
“Lord Silear, why didn’t Senior Lillian come to call me personally?” Colin suddenly asked softly.
“Because I was the one who informed Lillian about this, I told her to go ahead to the lower levels, and I would notify you.”
Silear answered without hesitation, as if he had rehearsed it in advance.
‘Didn’t Senior Lillian have anything else to delay her, that she actually didn’t come to find me?’
