The evening was approaching, and the low-tier mages entering the volcanic area were all beaming with smiles, preparing to leave.
A large number of mages were either walking or using various flying devices to head out of the volcano.
But just then, a faint barrier enveloped the entire volcanic area, blocking their way out.
The guards of the Dragon Rider Corps were shouting with a megaphone.
"The Dragon Island Volcano is endangering the city, the protective array has been activated. Please proceed to the southern exit to leave, you cannot leave from other places. Thank you for your cooperation."
A large number of mages were directed towards the southern exit, and everyone was grumbling.
"What's going on? We just came to pick up some materials and didn't do anything wrong."
"Why activate the array? Are they planning to kill us all?"
"Is Dragon Island so stingy they won't even let us pick up a few materials?"
"..."
