Several years passed, and Kei had long ascended to a Tier Three Legendary Knight. Using elemental power to fly was a trivial matter for him, keeping up with Sunan and Rose’s speed was not difficult.

"Judging by the distance, the Starry Tower should have appeared in the southeastern region, about over three thousand kilometers from here."

As the ruler of a nation, Kei was already well-versed in the geography of the continent’s southeastern region, and with a slight analysis, he pinpointed the location of the Starry Tower.

"It will take five days for the Starry Tower to fully manifest, so we don’t have to rush." Sunan said.

Kei and Rose both nodded in agreement.

Flying over three thousand kilometers is a considerable exertion whether you are a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice or a Tier Three Legendary Knight.

No one knows what the situation is like at the Starry Tower, so just in case, it’s better to take it slow, preserving our strength along the way.

Fortunately, the Starry Tower appeared in the southeast. If it had been the northwest, they would have had to rush frantically for five days.

Thus, the three of them flew at a leisurely pace, occasionally using the key to observe the Starry Tower’s situation.

By the fourth day, they were less than a hundred kilometers away from the Starry Tower.

In the meantime, they also encountered other Wizard Apprentices one after another.

However, those Wizard Apprentices merely spotted them from afar, noticing their group, and turned back without hesitation, with no intention of interaction.

"They’re not from the Forest Cabin." Rose frowned slightly, "It seems others know about the appearance of the Starry Tower."

"Not surprising." Sunan said calmly, "The emergence of the Starry Tower is not a small event, surely attracting much attention."

From the images in their minds, the Starry Tower was enormous in size, and hung conspicuously high in the sky, visible from afar, naturally attracting a lot of attention. It was no wonder some Wizard Apprentices hurried over upon hearing the news.

But these people without keys, even if they rushed here, could not enter the Starry Tower.

As they neared the Starry Tower, Sunan and the others sped up, no longer progressing slowly.

Before long, the outline of a towering structure appeared in their sight.

As the distance gradually shortened, the full view of the tower came into clear sight.

It looked exactly the same as the images seen before.

Yet when seeing it in person, the ancient and timeless vibe became ever more apparent.

The entire tower floated a hundred meters above the ground, like a long, straight spear piercing the sky. Its majestic and imposing form made one feel insignificant.

A look of awe appeared on both Kei and Rose’s faces.

It was the first time they saw such a magnificent, yet exquisitely designed structure.

Sunan, however, appeared quite composed.

After all, he had seen many grander and more magnificent buildings than this.

The Starry Tower was more like a small Wizard Tower, if not less impressive.

But in the current Starlight Continent, among short people, it stood out tall, overwhelming with amazement.

Stopping a thousand meters away from the Starry Tower, Sunan slightly focused his mind and sensed no fewer than twenty presences.

These beings were Legendary Knights or Level 2 Wizard Apprentices, mostly attracted by the commotion caused by the Starry Tower’s appearance.

There might even be Level 3 Wizard Apprentices on the scene.

But if a Wizard Apprentice of that level intentionally hid, Sunan couldn’t perceive them instantly.

Without intending to conceal their tracks, Sunan found a quiet spot, openly sat down, and awaited the opening of the Starry Tower.

As time passed, more and more people gathered around the Starry Tower.

Sunan was meditating when he suddenly felt a presence approaching. Upon opening his eyes, he saw a familiar face.

"Long time no see."

The scepter approached, greeted Sunan and Rose with a smile, and nodded slightly at Kei.

Kei had long been aware of the scepter’s attitude toward the Cangjin Empire’s royal family from Sunan, knowing the person before him was not an enemy, he returned a friendly smile.

After a few exchanges, the scepter unceremoniously sat down beside them.

Compared to lurking strangers around, banding together with familiar faces felt more secure.

Not long after, another familiar face approached, it was the Traveler.

The four of them sat together, discussing the matter of the Night Owl.

"I too find it quite odd." the scepter said gravely.

He was one of the veterans of the Forest Cabin and was among the members Night Owl first invited.

He was very familiar with Night Owl’s style.

"I originally thought Night Owl would invite everyone to head to the Starry Tower together, but no message ever came."

"And he hasn’t shown up to this point, it’s likely something really happened." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The Traveler added, "And the Hunter, it seems he didn’t come either."

If Hunter had come, he should have come over to reunite with them as well.

Realizing that both Night Owl and Hunter might be in trouble, everyone frowned deeply.

At this moment, the four suddenly sensed something, simultaneously looking up into the distance.

They saw a group of people slowly emerge from the forest several hundred meters away.

About ten people, all dressed in robes, revealing strong energy particle fluctuations without concealment.

They were clearly all Level 3 Wizard Apprentices!

A faint stir arose around them.

Apparently, those hidden weren’t expecting so many Level 3 Wizard Apprentices to show up at once.

Sunan and his three companions exchanged glances, all showing expressions of surprise.
