From MC's Perspective:
Inside the control room, I couldn't help but think of the outside situation. If I'm right then the outside situation must be worse. The city was already in a tense state.
After the death of several high-level wizards, the situation would become worse than before.
"Should I directly disclose the location to Elder Paul?" I thought. It's unwise for me to confront the Transmutation Wizard.
Everyone had already raised many doubts about my previous encounter with the Transmutation Wizard. The elders found it hard to believe that I was able to escape from him.
But if I tell the same reason again, they won't believe me. After weighing the pros and cons, I have decided to expose the location. Let them come and fight against the Transmutation Wizard.
Then my attention turned towards the old inn. So far there is no sign of him coming out. It looks like he would appear late at night only. No wonder, no one was able to find him.
