Chapter 1444: Chapter 933: The First Batch

"So... the urgent summons of all Soul Guardians this time, along with the ministers’ barely concealed joyful expressions, are most likely connected to Lord Kana’s return?"

Vane looked towards his sister beside him, his eyes full of irrepressible excitement, his voice trembling slightly with agitation.

As everyone began to enthusiastically and fervently discuss the possible astounding changes that the leader’s return might bring.

The edge of the training ground suddenly experienced an unexpected and peculiar distortion in space, like ripples spreading across a calm water surface with a stone thrown in.

A young mage, wearing the standard-make magic robe of the Night Watcher and prominently displaying the commander’s insignia on his chest, stepped out instantly.

He landed stably and precisely on the wide edge platform of the Floating Fortress, his movements clean and swift.

He was evidently very familiar with the fortress’s layout and surroundings, walking with a light gait.

After his identity was quickly scanned and confirmed by the fortress’s intelligent defense system, he headed directly towards the bustling core area of the training ground, a faintly familiar smile on his face.

"Hey, Captain Vane! Captain Arya! You two are here, the training’s really heated."

The messenger mage walked quickly up and greeted the two captains familiarly, his tone relaxed and casual.

"Why are you here? I just flew back, haven’t even caught my breath, and you’re already right on my tail? So fast!" Vane asked with some surprise.

The appearance of a messenger mage usually means there’s something relatively important or requiring official confirmation face-to-face, causing them to be specifically dispatched for in-person notifications.

Other routine notifications or task updates are perfectly sufficient to send via encrypted channels.

This young messenger mage often handles affairs related to these two sibling squads due to his duties, so everyone is very familiar with each other.

The mage quickly swept his gaze over Arya’s spirited and Vane’s youthful faces, which had similar contours yet different dispositions, and then exaggeratedly rolled his eyes, his tone carrying a bit of the helpless teasing only found between familiar acquaintances.

"I just received the completion of return confirmation from your Vane squad in the system less than half a day ago, and suddenly, an urgent transmission task was assigned. I hurried here by continuous transmission and flight."

"Why did I come? Of course, I came specifically for your two squads!"

He shrugged, spreading his hands, with an "I’m helpless too" expression.

Pausing for a moment, his sharp eyes quickly scanned the assembled ten elite Soul Guardians.

Including Arya, who emitted a stable legendary suppression as an absolute powerhouse, and the other nine Level Ten elite members represented by Vane, all appearing proficient and adept.

Within the Soul Guardian Legion, where powerful figures abound and competition is fierce.

These two squads might not be among the topmost elite teams but are definitely not bottom-tier either, regarded as reliable pillars.

The young messenger mage involuntarily revealed a hint of unbridled, heartfelt admiration in his eyes, smacking his lips with a sense of awe.

"Tut-tut, ’Silver Radiance Blade’ and ’Stardust Watcher’... At this moment, the core members of these two key squads are gathered here, just right at ten.

"Though your comprehensive ranking within the Soul Guardian Legion isn’t among the top legendary teams, the sudden good fortune and precious opportunity that is about to descend upon you...

"Really... it’s envy-inducing." His tone thick with envy.

His words were like a deep-water bomb thrown into a tranquil lake, suddenly silencing the Soul Guardians who were just soaking in the thrilling news of Lord Kana’s potential return; the air seemed to freeze.

Everyone’s gaze, akin to searchlights, focused entirely on the messenger mage, filled with urgent inquiry and irrepressible eager anticipation, as if they were about to ignite him.

Just as they vaguely sensed during their earlier conversation.

The messenger’s proactive approach this time is likely directly related to the previous mysterious high-level meeting, perhaps... even directly connected to their revered leader, Lord Kana!

This possibility certainly made hearts race and brim with anticipation.

The "opportunity" the mage mentioned, being envy-inducing, clearly explains the mysterious all-out recall and the ministers’ secretive smiles’ true reason; this opportunity seems closely tied with the destinies of the ten elite Soul Guardians present.

Faced with the suddenly focused, searchlight-like scorching gaze of everyone, and the silent questions almost drowning him.

The messenger mage, somewhat taken aback by this unexpected enthusiasm, instinctively stepped back half a step, a hint of awkwardness on his face.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don’t be hasty!" He quickly raised both hands in surrender, with a face that was both helpless and amused, his voice raised slightly to surpass the invisible wave, "I haven’t finished talking yet! Your eagerness... I understand, but at least let me finish delivering the message!"

The crowd barely restrained their boiling emotions, slightly withdrawing their overly direct gaze, but their eyes remained fixed on him, burning with uncontainable excitement about to burst forth, the air filled with tense anticipation.
