Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 12: Chapter 11 Magic Energy Image!

```The voice coming from the depths of the tunnel sent shivers down Rocky's spine...

"Could it be... this place is haunted..."

You see, when people fled to the sky, each nation urgently shut down their re

"My name is Wensel, and I am the head of this research institute. This image is my last will and testament..."

By this time, Rocky had somewhat understood. There must have been some sensing mechanism within the research institute; once the stone gate outside was opened, the Magic Energy Image would activate, leading to everything he was seeing.

But what puzzled him was that if this Wensel was the head of the research institute, then he must be an extraordinary figure. So why would he leave his image here? Figures of his stature should have been taken to Sky City long ago, right?

As Rocky was puzzled, the Magic Energy Image in front of him, or more precisely the image left by Wensel, continued, "I don't know when you or you all will find this testament, and I don't even know who you are, but I assume you must have already implemented the Sky City plan."

"But believe me, the Sky City plan is destroying everyone!"

All of a sudden, Wensel's image became agitated and angrily said, "Fleeing to the sky is the same as handing over the land to the Demons; it's an act equal to surrender! No more surrendering to the Demons!"

"The direction of this plan is completely wrong; Sky City cannot take everyone away. People won't find a chance to fight back for the land in the sky—it's completely a death wish!"

My heavens!

Wensel's words shocked Rocky to his core!

How could this old man start by railing against Sky City, which had saved everyone? Who on earth was he to be so presumptuous?

Meanwhile, Wensel's image paused for a long time, and it took a while before a sigh came through:

"Forget it..."

"Talking about this now is pointless since you're seeing this image. It means I am already dead, and the Sky City plan has been carried out, so everything is too late..."

After a long sigh, Wensel's image continued:

"You might be wondering why you're seeing my image left here. It's simple because I didn't evacuate. When those cowards chose to flee, I preferred to stay here."

"Don't be surprised; there are many who share my sentiments. And we're not staying here to die; we're continuing our research."

Research!

Research!

When the image left by Wensel uttered this word, Rocky's breath almost stopped!

This Wensel had not fled to the sky, and he was still in the research institute continuing with his own research. What did this imply?

It meant that the research institute should hold his inventions!

And it looked like... Rocky might be the first person to come to this research institute!

This possibility made him forget to breathe...
