Chapter 2276: Chapter 1139: Exiled Talents

The approach of such a formidable fleet naturally caught the attention of those stationed at the Border Great Wall. Many Armed Witches curiously observed this fleet with its somewhat complex composition, and discussions arose.

"Hey, isn’t this the Revelation Fleet? It just left not long ago and now it’s back, preparing to set out again. Are they so bored they have to keep wandering around? Doesn’t the warship’s fuel consume Magic Power?"

Someone recognized the warships of the Revelation Battle Group and spoke these words.

"This isn’t just the Revelation Battle Group’s young folks. There’s also the transport team from the Golden Country, the Eternal Night Fleet from the Vampire Clan, and even the Pure Beauty cruise ship from Night City is here."

"Tsk tsk tsk, don’t any of you browse the Magic Network? There was a video of the Young Lady gathering troops released by someone from Shining Territory this morning, and now that video is already trending. If you calculate the timing, they should indeed have just arrived at the Border Great Wall."

"High skill breeds courage. Posting a video in the morning, and now they’re here by noon. This must have been a Spirit World Transition through the Twilight Realm. I was stuck in the Twilight Realm for several years back then."

"Haha, compare your status to the Young Lady. How could you dare to measure up?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I’m not going to boast like you guys. Since the missies from the Pure Beauty touring dance troupe are here, I have to go listen to some music and watch some dances. Who knows how long they’ll stay here, so I’d better catch them now."

....

With no battles, the Armed Witches who were just bored idly chatted with each other. The Border Great Wall is quite dull on normal days, so when such a group of highly talked-about newcomers arrived, everyone immediately began watching them as if they’d discovered a rare treasure.

So, as soon as Dorothy and the others disembarked from the Nephthys, they first felt the eyes peering at them.

Especially Dorothy, who attracted the most gaze; after all, she was the most famous.

Plus, although these Armed Witches stationed at the front line can access the internet normally, they don’t return to the Inner World casually. At least during the past half a year of Dorothy becoming famous, most of them hadn’t gone back; thus, this was their first offline real sighting of the much-talked-about Young Lady.

Of course, those present were true Armed Witches who had passed the Twilight Realm trials. They were elite members of the Witch Clan; everyone was somewhat talented. Therefore, even though some had eyes showing a bit of scrutiny toward this young junior who gained fame quickly, nobody would be foolish enough to jump in and directly express any questioning remarks. Yet, many had a gaze tinged with examination.

This is only natural; no matter how big online fame is, it could often be hype. Ultimately, people still need to see with their own eyes.

However, just under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the party of homebody witches suddenly vanished into thin air.

Hmm, one moment they were the center of attention, and the next, nearly everyone realized that the group of young folks had disappeared from sight.

Was it an Invisibility Technique? Or a Space Teleportation? Or perhaps some kind of Illusion Technique?

For a moment, those previously scrutinizing eyes all changed color, finally realizing that beneath the famed name, there lay no ordinary person. This Young Lady could frequently dominate Magic Network’s trending headlines for a reason—she had indeed proved herself with skillful means, unlike those willing to die for fame, achieving only short-lived notoriety, soon forgotten like mass-produced internet influencers.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Dorothy and the group were actually still standing in the same spot.

"Tsk, being famous really is troublesome; it’s easy to be too conspicuous wherever you go."

Dorothy grumbled while deploying her Calm as Still Water ability.

Although she was currently just at the Magic Power level of a Great Witch, even ordinary Peak Witches found it difficult to see through this upgraded version of the Akari Technique.

However, the homebody witch soon furrowed her brows, realizing there were still a few gazes curiously watching them.

Ugh, as expected of the Border Great Wall—it’s truly a gathering place for Armed Witches; indeed, experts abound. To encounter so many masters right upon arrival?

Following those sensing gazes back, Dorothy met eyes with these big shots one by one. The big shots, being decent folks, mostly gave her friendly smiles, then diverted their attention, no longer staring at her.

Given the respect shown, the homebody witch naturally wouldn’t be aggressive either. She offered a friendly smile back to the owners of those gazes, and then refrained from overthinking.

"Let’s go, everyone."

She said this to her sisters beside her.

And subsequently, with the cover of Calm as Still Water, their actions went quite smoothly.

First, they attended to their business, heading directly to the Border Great Wall’s Whaling Institution branch to handle the departure paperwork.

This also went smoothly; although the receptionist young lady almost popped her eyes out upon Dorothy presenting that Nine-Star Golden Contract, and her mood got slightly stirred, her good professional demeanor ensured she maintained basic composure, understanding what not to say and not to ask.

The young lady only normally checked everyone’s Identity Card information, the warship count, configuration details, and other public documents, confirmed everything was correct, then respectfully returned these documents with both hands and offered the group a sweet smile.

"I wish you all great success and a triumphant return."

After completing the procedures, the group breathed a sigh of relief and did not rush back immediately. Instead, they slowed down their pace a bit, soaking in the atmosphere at the Border Great Wall.
