Chapter 569: Dekai

The old man appeared powerless and at the same time, he felt profound. Only a fool would completely dismiss him as simply an insignificant old man.

Atticus didn't even have to think about it; he knew immediately who he had to approach among the people kneeling.

He stood silently and waited.

But he didn't have to wait long. The Aegis airship suddenly took off from the platform and ascended upwards.

A few seconds passed, and the old man stood up shakily from his kneeling position, his piercing eyes immediately landing on Atticus.

"Atticus, I presume?"

His voice was sagely as though it was filled with wisdom. Atticus couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

The old man had a very long white beard that reached his waist. He had a surprising amount of wrinkles around his face and body, and he appeared insanely old.
