CHAPTER 600: CHAPTER 597 PULWICK TOWER

Seasonal changes are not obvious in tropical countries.

When Ronald and Bapulor landed on the ground, the attire, activities, and skin color of the city’s residents confirmed Bapulor’s judgment about their geographical location.

Taking advantage of the scouting benefits provided by the power of "Fury", Ronald, accompanied by Bapulor, landed on the ground and casually asked for the name of the city.

"Hey, Bapulor, what’s the name of this city?"

"Purvicta."

"..."

Ronald gave Bapulor a surprised look.

The heretic Magician then shared a piece of lesser-known information that wouldn’t be found in Greed’s atlas of origin goods:

"Purvicta was originally a city-state, but its influence later radiated outward, transforming it into a nation. Here, the capital is the name of the country, and the country’s name is also their capital."

"By the way, there is another brother city located inland. However, unlike Purvicta, they weren’t willing to accept Greed’s protection and have since declared independence."

"I see..."

Ronald nodded in understanding and then reached up to remove the mask from his face.

Revealing his true face once more, Ronald stepped out from the secluded area on the edge of the city.

From the behavior of the ordinary people passing by,

besides the somewhat indeterminable issue of frenzied hearts,

everything in the city seemed normal, with nothing particular worth noting.

Then, Ronald quietly made a mark on the edge of a wall.

He leaned quietly by the roadside and waited.

—This was a universal symbol used by the Investigation Bureau.

If the situation in the city was as Bapulor had described,

the investigator responsible for this area, noticing the magic fluctuation, should arrive soon.

It was at this moment that Bapulor, quite interested, spoke up:

"Hey, Ronald, I often use this symbol too. In some situations, it really works wonders."

Are you using it to distract people when running away...

Or are you planning to ambush the investigator and use it as bait?

Ronald gave Bapulor a look but didn’t delve deeper into the subject.

He had just left the "Infinite Negative Realm" and was filled with mixed feelings.

Catherine’s final battle and purpose, the distant Springs, the Wizard of Barrier Mountain breaking the seal to return to this world—

All these were matters of great concern to Ronald at the moment.

His contemplation did not last long.

In just a few minutes, Bapulor remarked softly:

"Wow, they’ve arrived quite swiftly as usual."

"..."

Two investigators, dressed quite colorfully in the local style, hurriedly approached along the road.

This probably reflected the long-standing operational efficiency of the Investigation Bureau.

Even in this city outside of their nation, their capability remained impressive.

"Excuse me, gentlemen?"

Approaching Ronald and Bapulor, the younger of the investigators stepped forward.

"We noticed the mark you two left. May I ask what it is about?"

Ronald immediately replied:

"Well, we were sailing from Springs, spent some time in the Sunset Ocean, and then proceeded by following the position of the sun, which unexpectedly brought us to Purvicta!"

"If possible, we would appreciate any help or answers."

Ronald wasn’t sure if the investigators in front of him had a "Lie Detector".

To be safe, he chose to slightly rephrase his statement.

```

Hearing Ronald’s question, the young investigator immediately showed an "as expected" expression and then explained very proficiently:

"Sir, you probably didn’t know about this since you were overseas before."

"The world now is completely different from before..."

The young investigator patiently explained the changes that had occurred during this time.

With communication skills that were still passable on the mysterious side.

On Harvest Day, the investigators in Purvicta received an emergency notice from headquarters.

A mysterious team of Casters appeared in Springs.

Then, they launched a massive attack!

During the battle, Queen Dantrian of the mystical side showed the strength of the strongest, leading her subordinates to successfully repel the attacking enemies.

However, at the same time, the enemy Casters were merely repelled by Gred.

Leaving Springs, they, centered around Gred, crazily spread the awareness of the mystical side around the world, significantly transforming the human population’s understanding of the world.

Thus, "World Alterations" began to occur frequently.

This extensive change started impacting the whole world, and many places’ spaces also showed extremely unstable characteristics.

The situation Ronald and his team encountered was not unusual.

In fact, it was a result of these changes.

Ronald listened to the investigator’s description, continually nodding to indicate that he had understood the situation.

The investigators of Purvicta were different from those in Springs.

They didn’t recognize Ronald’s appearance, assuming they were just dealing with a Caster involved in an ordinary incident.

For Ronald, such ordinary treatment was indeed very rare.

However, three minutes after explaining the events, the young investigator’s expression suddenly froze.

He opened his mouth but made no sound.

Then, with a strange expression, he raised his right hand and pointed behind Ronald:

"Sky... the sky..."

Ronald quickly turned around.

At this moment, not only the investigator, but many ordinary people in the city also turned like him, looking in the direction of the setting sun.

Or rather... toward the sky above the distant sea.

As is well known, due to the curvature radius of the planet, when people look into the distance, their line of sight eventually reaches the sky.

But now, the situation was different.

The original sky’s end swiftly extended toward a darkness, and for some reason, the sunlight’s scattering could not obscure the speckles of light appearing there.

—This swiftly spreading darkness.

—Was a scene only seen in the pitch-black starry sky!

Was this the influence of a Spell?

Ronald and Bapulor exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other’s eyes.

They hadn’t sensed any Magic Fluctuations.

Whatever was causing this phenomenon didn’t seem to be human...

It was likely that no one could achieve something so outrageous.

At that moment, Ronald narrowed his eyes.

With his level of excellent vision, the distant scene he saw was actually clearer than that of ordinary people—especially in the details.

The change wasn’t just limited to the sky.

At this moment, the distant sea surface that was bending downwards was rising from afar, continually leaning toward becoming a flat state!

His gaze focused on the distant sea.

As the change continued, Ronald suddenly shivered, his entire expression growing even more somber.

Because above the sea surface extending this starry sky.

Ronald... it looked very familiar to him!
