At this moment, within Colin's courtyard, there was no longer any trace of the lush scene that had been seen that morning.
The plants all seemed as if their life force had been drained, wilting and some even beginning to wither and decay.
Looking around, the courtyard was nothing but a picture of desolation.
Then looking at the white mansion in the middle, all the doors and windows were tightly shut, eerily still without the slightest noise.
Cold sweat suddenly broke out across Oliver's black forehead.
He then realized he had overlooked a very important point—
Although Colin said he was temporarily leaving Neustadt City to complete a School task that wasn't part of the original plan,
in reality, he didn't need to accept a task at all, he just needed to report to the School, and he could have left temporarily.
Oliver wiped the sweat from his forehead.
