Chapter 2526


    "I thought you''d gone back. Why are you waiting for me?" asked Fane, genuinely puzzled.


    After all, he and Rudy did not have the best ofradeship, and every conflict they had before never truly left their minds.


    All that, and Rudy acted like nothing had happened between them and waited for Fane outside.


    Rudy let out a slight cough as he said with an obstinate tone, "We just moved in here, you know.


    We''ll be bullied if we walk on our own, don''t you think?"


    Fane let out a light grunt. He could not help but feel the urge to roll his eyes, but he stopped himself in the end. He had already grasped Rudy''s temperament a while ago, so it was nothing too surprising. He would just be wasting his time if he continued to be calctive with him.


    Fane thus nodded and decided to just y along. He could do whatever he wanted to.


    "I''m going to the task hall, are youing?"


    Rudy''s eyes widened in exasperation when he heard that. "Fane, you''ve just arrived in Phoenix Valley for a few hours. Why are you in such a hurry to go everywhere?


    "You''ve only been in that room for six hours! How much could you have learned? Now, you''re going to the task hall. Don''t forget: Lou had mentioned that all tasks that have been imed need to be finished."


    Fane nodded. He had not rested ever since he entered Phoenix Valley, and to Rudy and everyone else, it would look like he was in a hurry. However, Fane knew all too well that he would be wasting his life if he did not value his time.


    With not a second to lose, he turned and looked at Rudy seriously. "I''ll say it again: I''m going to the task hall. Do you want to follow me? You cane along if you want to, but otherwise, head back on your own."


    He could not be bothered wasting time exchanging words with Rudy nor did he want to reveal his ns to Rudy. With that, he turned around and left the Hall of Wishes.


    Rudy frowned as he watched Fane walk away. He did not understand why Fane seemed to be in such a hurry. He had only rested for barely a moment before he resumed whatever he was thinking of!


    After hesitating for a while, Rudy decided to follow Fane in the end; he refused to be left alone in a ce he barely knew.


    The two of them walked forward, and Fane even asked around for directions to the task hall. After a few twists and turns, they finally arrived at the task hall.


    The task hall was the most majestic building in the whole outer valley of Phoenix Valley, and it took up even more space than the Hall of Wishes. There were 99 flights of steps, and just a nce would show how magnificent that pce built on the side of the hill was. Content belongs

    Fane took a deep breath. Just from the design alone, the task hall looked like the most important ce in Phoenix Valley, with all the people moving out and about in the task hall.


    Compared to the ces Fane had


    been before, there were much fewer people there. After all, there were only about 200 alchemists in the outer valley, and all of them were split up into various ces inthe outer valley.


    Even if the task hall had the most people in Phoenix Valley, it was still not that crowded.


    Fane did not pause for much longer before he started to walk right into the task hall.


    Rudy followed closely behind Fane, somewhat speechless as he looked at Fane''s back. There were some things he had not wanted to say, but looking at how Fane walked so confidently and calmly, he could not help but say, "You look very dead-set, Fane."


    Rudy''s meaningless remark baffled Fane. He had never been someone who enjoyed talking a lot, but Rudy seemed like a curious child whose questionsones he did not even wish to entertain-never ceased.
