Chapter 514 Purpose

Looking at the new twisted seed, Avis casually extended his mental tentacles and touched it.

Then, a large number of memory fragments returned along the tentacles that connected him to the twisted seed.

The person who was responsible for hypnotizing him before seemed to be an important figure in the enemy. From the other party's memory, Avis obtained a lot of key information.

She is an eighth-level spellcaster specializing in the shadow and mind school. She was trained and raised as a member of the shadow guard since childhood. In the process, she showed extraordinary talent and was personally brought by Marquis Draka to train.

Like many professionals walking in the dark, she has no name, only a unique code name: Shadow.

It was given to her by the Marquis she was loyal to. Before she was honored with the greatness and glory of the gods, this code name was always regarded as her most precious thing.

Flipping through the deep memories in her heart, Avis carefully searched for information related to this attack and the plan of Marquis Draka behind her.

Soon, a strange memory scene gradually formed in Anvis's spiritual space.

The memory environment was in a quiet study, the air was quiet and had a faint smell of old paper.

The light in the environment seemed extremely dim, especially the deep behind the desk in the study, where the owner sat, was completely shrouded in darkness.

It was very strange that the dome of the study was shrouded in endless dark space. And the 'walls' of the study were composed of countless magic books that were quietly suspended in the dark space, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Surrounded by countless magic books, the owner of the perspective stood in the center of the study, respectfully bowed in the direction of the main seat of the study, in the deep darkness.

"Mr. Marquis, in accordance with your instructions, the clues related to the ruins of the Sword of the King have been sent, and the other party has not doubted it-"

The voice of the shadow seemed to touch something, and the thick darkness in front gradually faded, revealing the vague outline of a figure sitting on the throne.

Although he couldn't see Shadow's expression at the moment, Avis could feel that when the outline of the figure appeared, the woman codenamed Shadow suddenly felt a strong sense of respect and admiration in her heart.

"... At present, the expedition team has set out to explore the ruins. According to its comprehensive strength, it is expected to complete the exploration and return with harvest within seven to ten days.

I have arranged for people to forge identities and infiltrate them, and monitor their actions at all times."

His eyes quietly paid attention to the figure sitting in the dark. Shadow kept reporting the achievements he had made during this period of time by leading the Shadow Guard.

"Very good-"

A plain male voice that seemed to have some kind of magic came from the deep darkness in front.

Wherever the voice reached, the pages of countless magic books turned automatically without wind, as if catering to the will of the owner of the voice.

"After they bring out the clues, do we need to secretly deal with them?"

A ray of admiration also flashed in Shadow's eyes, but she suppressed it immediately and respectfully asked the figure about his opinion on the next step.

"Deal with it, and do it cleanly."

After a moment of silence, the figure in the dark spoke calmly.

"If the people of the four major families find them and use them as a medium to predict, it may cause us some trouble."

"Your will, sir!"

Nodding clearly, Shadow stood up, but seemed to hesitate a little before leaving.

"Anything else, Shadow?"

Seeing Shadow's posture, the figure in the dark spoke again.

"I dare not! I'll leave."

Faced with the Marquis's inquiry, Shadow hurriedly denied it and immediately said goodbye.

"...You want to say, why should I take action against the four major families of the empire at this time, right?"

But the figure seemed to be able to see through Shadow's psychological activities.

"Your Excellency's choice must have a purpose, and I... dare not question it!"

Under the invisible pressure, Shadow's forehead was slightly sweaty, and she bowed deeply to the figure in the main seat to express her submission.

"Oh, there is no need to be so, Shadow. As my shadow, this is not something that needs to be kept secret..."

Looking at her posture, the figure sitting in the dark chuckled.

"In fact..."

"Do I need to explain anything to her, Draka?"

But when he was about to say something, another voice suddenly came out of the darkness.

Anweis, who was "listening", immediately recognized that this was the voice of Gray Mist.

"She is the executor. Only if she understands all this can she make the right decision immediately when facing some emergencies, instead of reporting to me first and then making a choice."

After explaining to Gray Mist casually, Marquis Draka continued his words without caring.

"In fact, now is a very good time for us.

Since the founding of the Gloria Empire, the four major families have obtained four provinces as permanent fiefdoms because of their meritorious service in assisting the emperor.

But after the departure of Emperor Gloria, the four major families have been able to develop smoothly for more than two thousand years. Due to this deep foundation, they have also fostered huge ambitions.

In the original forecast, under the previous dark beast tide and the resistance organization "Spark", the situation in the four provinces of the empire should be somewhat chaotic.

Then, we can unite with small and medium nobles to further erode them, and the royal family will definitely be happy to see it happen.

However, due to the accidental exposure of the bases of some organizations, the True Knowledge Society obtained a lot of clues and directly carried out a major purge within the empire, which made the entire operation fail..."

As he said this, Marquis Draka did not forget to satirize a certain force.

"And the sudden appearance of the Circle of Truth caused the imperial family to become extremely vigilant against the resistance organization, and directly destroyed the "Spark" that was still developing in secret at that time. I'm afraid that the injury that Mr. Draka suffered in the Sky City that time has not been completely healed yet?"

The gray misty voice came, and replied unceremoniously.

"...In short, the four provinces that should have been in chaos a long time ago have been delayed for a long time by these accidents.

But now, the resistance organization "Spark" that fled from the empire before has obtained its own kingdom in the Federation, and even obtained the support of high-level prophet.

And now, since the war in the Federation has ended, they have arranged for people to return to the Empire secretly, and seem to be preparing to do something.

The 'Glory Alliance' also promised to provide us with support. At present, some of the small and medium-sized nobles of the empire have secretly joined the other party. Once the four provinces are in chaos, it will also be an opportunity for them to take advantage of.

We don't even have to do it ourselves. As long as the four major families are in chaos first, there will be people who will help us to make the situation more chaotic. "

"... But, my lord, will these forces also cause harm to us?"

After listening to Marquis Draka's explanation, Shadow euphemistically expressed his thoughts.

"They won't."

Marquis Draka smiled mysteriously.

"Because those who really guide the situation do not value territory and wealth, but destiny--"

Hearing this, Avis instantly understood the cause of the current situation.

Unlike Shadow, who was a little confused, he immediately figured out the key because he knew more information.

"Since the situation in the Federation has been in a stalemate, are these prophets ready to look for opportunities to break through from other aspects?"
