Chapter 888 -41: Straight Hook_2

Link focused on the phrase “the end and the beginning anew, all things renewed.”

The lifespan of Sage Michelle was coming to an end, which could very well be described as “the end.”

If, with the help of the Immortal God Tomorrow Court, Great Sage Michelle managed to change his cultivation path and successfully ascend, that would be “the beginning anew.”

Everything would then be “all things renewed.”

So, Lotson was reminding Link that today and tomorrow were the most important days for Great Sage Michelle.

In the calendar of the original World of the Immortal Gods, where the tradition of “celebrating the new year” began, today is nothing special, but tomorrow is New Year’s Eve, or what is commonly referred to as “the great year.”

From this perspective, the day when Great Sage Michelle completes his ascension must be tomorrow!

According to previous prophecies and speculations, tomorrow is also the day when Great Sage Michelle plans to launch an attack on the Revosorath Academy Advance Team and the Four Sects Legions.

While Link’s mind was filled with thoughts, he remained composed and quickly regained his composure.

Lotson handed the big red lantern in his hand to his sister-in-law Jasmine and snapped his fingers lightly with his right hand.

With a snap, a starship appeared out of thin air.

“Please come inside, big brother and sister-in-law.”

With a wave towards the unfolded gangway of the cabin door, Lotson spoke in a strange tone.

Jasmine turned her head to look at Link, intending to stay in step with him.

The way Lotson was acting made her feel unfamiliar with him and unsure of how to respond.

Link reassured Jasmine with a “don’t worry” look, then took her hand without any hesitation, accepted Lotson’s hospitality and service, and walked up the gangway into the cabin to board the starship.

Lotson followed close behind.

The gangway retracted automatically, the cabin door closed, and the starship ascended automatically, entering space.

“Where are we going?”

Once inside the cockpit of the starship, Link casually selected two seats, sat down with Jasmine, and got straight to the point.

“Of course, we’re going to solve a problem,” Lotson replied with a grin, revealing a mouth full of white teeth. “Even if we can’t solve the problem, we can deal with the person who caused the problem.”

Link fell silent upon hearing the response and then bluntly asked, “Your change is quite sudden. Has something happened that I don’t know about?”

“Of course,” Lotson nodded in affirmation but didn’t elaborate on what had happened.

Seeing this, Link did not ask any further.

The cockpit fell silent.

Soon after, Jasmine broke the silence with a call.

“Link, look quickly.”

She pointed out to the starry sky outside the left porthole of the cockpit, gently tugging at Link’s arm to get his attention.

“Look at what?”

As Link asked, he looked in the direction that Jasmine indicated.

Soon after, Link understood why Jasmine had shouted.

It turned out that a huge interstellar fleet, not bothering to conceal its movements, was traveling in formation at high speed.

Lotson’s starship was of very high class and had already entered Stealth Mode earlier.

Therefore, the interstellar fleet in front did not detect the presence of this starship.

However, Link had already recognized where this interstellar fleet came from.

“Tower of Great Sage Michelle.”

Whispering this name, Link took out the encrypted communicator, about to contact Dean Frist.

“Don’t rush.”

Lotson put his hand on Link to stop him.

“Reason,” Link, stopping reaching for the communicator, stared intently into Lotson’s eyes and demanded in a firm voice.

“Let what’s supposed to happen, happen,” Lotson said softly. “Sometimes, a proper cost is bearable. Trying to avoid it forcefully might lead to a greater cost later, which isn’t worth it.”

“What did you Prophecy?”

“Unspeakable, unspeakable.”

Hearing Lotson say that, Link reconsidered and truly gave up on the idea of notifying Dean Frist.

After all, the Ravensmouth College Advance Team had already received intelligence about the impending attack and had made preparations in advance.

Dean Frist was not the type to sit idly by.

Facing an adversary as formidable as the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell, he would definitely not rely solely on the Advance Team’s strength to resist, but would absolutely seek external support.

Whether the external support was from the Supreme Council or elsewhere, it would be powerful assistance for the Advance Team to get through this crisis.

Link believed that Dean Frist would certainly not let the Advance Team suffer a catastrophic blow.

As for the final losses, whether they were big or small, that was not something Link could control.

As for Sage Palo, Sage Selene, and Sage Cody, as well as the Four Sects Legions…

Link could only very cold-heartedly say, “everyone, best of luck.”

Jasmine suddenly spoke up, “Why must there be a price to pay? What if I don’t want to pay a big price later, nor do I want to pay a small price now?”

The question seemed naive and childish but actually contained intricacies.

Lotson gave Jasmine a deep look, a mocking smile curling at the corner of his mouth, “If that’s the case, then you’ll end up paying both a small price and a big price. Moreover, both the small price and the large price will be bigger than the original ones.”

“Really? Can you give an example?”

Jasmine frowned slightly, as if she didn’t quite understand.

“An example?”

Lotson narrowed his eyes slightly, smiling, “Old Mitchell is the most typical example.”

“How so?”

Link suddenly spoke up, prompting Lotson to continue.

Lotson glanced at his cheap big brother and sister-in-law, the smile on his face unchanged, yet the mockery lessened, he explained, “If old Mitchell hadn’t repeatedly prolonged his life, he would have had the opportunity to become a Saint by now. We wizards claim to pursue truth, not necessarily to defy nature. Many times, following nature can lead to a better outcome.”

“Is that so?”

Upon hearing this, Link was contemplative.

Jasmine also stopped her questioning and accepted the decision not to notify Dean Frist.

Thus, the Starship passed close to the massive Interstellar Fleet from the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell, not far from the vicinity of the Ravensmouth College Advance Team’s stationed area.

The Interstellar Fleet made its way toward the Advance Team’s stationed area.

The Starship, on the other hand, headed in the direction from which the fleet had come.

When the last Warship of the fleet passed by from the side, both Link and Jasmine turned their heads, staring deeply at the Advance Team’s stationed area through the Starship’s large cockpit screen.

There, a skirmish was about to take place that Link and Jasmine were supposed to have joined in.

However, for various reasons, Link had not only abandoned the Grande Sage Army but had also taken Jasmine out from among the Four Sects Legions.

Link actually didn’t know whether his actions were correct or not.

Whether the Great Sage Mitchell and the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell would forego their special targeting of the Four Sects Legions because Link and Jasmine were not there remained an unknown.

But the decision was made and action had been taken, regretting it now would be of no use.

What Link and Jasmine could do was not to feel really guilty toward Sage Palo, Sage Selene, and Sage Cody, not to feel guilty toward the Four Sects Legions.

“Don’t look anymore, there’s nothing left to see.”

Lotson stretched out his hands, wiggling them in front of Link and Jasmine, interrupting their gaze and thoughts.

“Yeah, we won’t look anymore.”

Link responded, turning his head to look at Lotson, “Now, let’s talk about the real reason you called us out here?”

Lotson asked incredulously, “Wasn’t it your own idea to take your cheap sister-in-law out? How has it become me calling you out?”

Link didn’t want to argue with these useless words, just silently watching Lotson, waiting for a reply.

Jasmine lacked understanding of the current situation and didn’t know what Link was doing, but she too partnered with Link in staring intently at Lotson.

“You two…”

Lotson exhaled deeply as if helplessly and as if there was nothing he could do about his cheap big brother and sister-in-law.

After sighing, an expression of helpless resignation surfaced on Lotson’s face, and he whispered, “In my current state, to solve the problematic person, I have to play some strategy. For instance…”

“Laying some bait, setting a trap.”
