Chapter 527 Observation and Contempt
Thinking from another perspective, Avis can actually understand the Duke's concerns.
After all, the death of Asira Aslaide is still vivid in people's minds, and even the prophecy has been tampered with. If it weren't for the appearance of the Ring of Truth that drew attention, I'm afraid the four major families would have already started a cold war at this time.
And in the end, the leader of the Ring of Truth and the breath of the Sword of King Selection also appeared near the escaped Etno Alfred at the same time. It is hard not to doubt what role the Ring of Truth played in this matter.
There are even rumors within the empire that the birth of the Sword of King Selection and the attack on the descendants of the Aslaide family were actually all planned by the Ring of Truth!
And they must want to use this incident to divert the attention of the outside world and provoke the relationship between the four major families, so as to achieve their evil purpose of weakening the national strength of the empire!
The most uncomfortable person for this development of the situation is Marquis Draka. According to Shadow's report, he has been a lot more irritable recently, and many tables have been changed in the study.
The intervention of the Ring of Truth not only caused the Sword of King Selection to be lost, but also the four major families became vigilant.
If it was the situation of internal fighting among the four major families as he planned, the imperial family would never mind taking advantage of the situation to suppress one of them. But now the existence of the Truth Ring has turned the situation into an invasion by foreign enemies.
Considering the excessive strength of the Truth Ring, the royal family is unwilling to intervene at this time to weaken the power of the four major families, so as not to let the foreign enemies take advantage of it in vain.
The most important thing is that although the Sword of the Chosen King is suspected to have been taken away by the Truth Ring, the previous things were arranged by him.
Although they are all investigating the Truth Ring now, if they continue to investigate like this, they may find him instead!
Although it seems that the Truth Ring took the blame for him in this incident, Marquis Draka always feels that he inexplicably took the blame for the Truth Ring.
In short, the major forces in the empire have become vigilant again. When searching for clues left by the [Truth Ring], they also began to restrain their descendants, not to go far away for the time being, let alone leave the protection of the family.
After solemnly assuring the Duke that he would not go out casually, Avis sorted out the information, picked out several ruins where powerful ancient beings might exist, and began to plan the specific order and route of the next exploration.
Anyway, he had no plan to leave the Pamir Academy for the time being, and the clones would disguise their identities when they went out to explore the ruins, so that even if they encountered accidents, it would not affect his body.
Although he had been using various means to disintegrate the enemy's conspiracy in advance and delay the time for the family to be targeted, Avis's real breakthrough point was still mainly based on the improvement of his own hard power.
If he had real legendary strength, all the problems he was facing now would be solved.
Of course, although the clones were arranged to explore, the number of clones that Avis controlled at the same time could not be too many.
The strength of the clones ultimately comes from the main body. Too many clones will only reduce the strength of all clones. Just like a piece of cake, the more pieces you divide, the smaller the size of each piece.
Avis had already divided out two permanent clones, the leader of the resistance army [The Man in the Mirror] and the head of the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce [Raphael].
With his current professional level of "mid-eighth level", he can only send out two more free clones to explore various ruins while maintaining the peak combat power of the eighth level.
Soon, the exploration plan was completed. Avis carefully checked it and immediately arranged for the clone to explore after confirming that there was no problem.
.
….….
In the next half month, Avis's daily life was calm.
There was no news from Bishop Yanile and Shadow, and it seemed that neither side had any action for the time being.
The Black Ring Chamber of Commerce is still conscientiously expanding its business scope, and has begun to have subtle friction with local chambers of commerce in the Saint Messia Empire.
Players have also begun to fan the flames everywhere, trying to make things bigger.
The man in the mirror is still slacking off and drinking tea every day, but because Avis, as an eighth-level prophet, is backing him up, he now starts to serve as a receptionist and negotiate long-term cooperation with the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Glory Alliance. Mrs. Mandel dares not speak out.
Harvey still went out to see his girlfriend every now and then, but to Avis's regret, his research had temporarily entered a bottleneck stage and progress was very slow.
Although Avis had been able to replicate the dream fluctuation frequency of Harvey and the actress, due to the small number of samples, he could not analyze why this one-sided attraction effect occurred when these two different fluctuations merged together.
And his forces were also searching everywhere for samples similar to Harvey and the actress, but so far there was no gain, which forced Avis to use a stupid method, trying to change the fluctuation frequency little by little, and then observe and summarize its rules.
However, Prince Lanno and the descendants of other major families were still secretly carrying out their "plans".
For example, secretly contacting the players' big guilds, secretly developing the strength of their subordinates, privately attracting students of ordinary origins to work for them in the academy, fighting openly and secretly, etc.
Of course, the process could not be all peaceful. For example, due to the recent death of Yasira Aslaide, Colen of the Aslaide family had a private conflict with Shirlin of the Enoch family.
This conflict was caused by a little friction. At first, it was just a fight between the two men's forces, but it soon turned into a duel between the two men themselves.
Although the duel process was relatively secretive, it could not be hidden from Avis's eyes. He even made more than a dozen crystal balls for this purpose, and watched the full-scale live broadcast while enjoying the black tea brewed from the new leaves of the ancient tree of life.
In Avis's enthusiastic peeping, the two finally suffered some minor injuries under the unexpected trump cards of the other party, but overall they were still in a state where they could not do anything to each other.
Only by watching the daily "struggle" of the descendants of these big families, Avis can really feel that he is still a student of Pamir College, not a super villain who intends to destroy the three empires and revive the glory of the ancient magic empire.
Of course, in the eyes of other nobles, including the descendants of the other three families, Avis is also an outlier.
Obviously born from the four great families of the empire, he has no ambition to make progress, but chose a mysterious school to "be content" and live a life. Except for the good luck to develop a foreign power, there is nothing else to recommend.
He was like a scholar all day, only knowing how to study those strange relics. He rarely made any contact with any nobles, and spent most of his time with the common people. His only noble friend was the famous playboy Harvey.
He was a real dandy who didn't do his job properly!
Many people thought sourly that if they were given Avis's identity, they would be a hundred times better than Avis.
In this mentality, except for Harvey, Lanno and a few people who really knew Avis.
Although others still treated Avis with respect on the surface because of his family background, they had already despised him in their hearts. Even when talking about the descendants of the four major families in the academy behind their backs, they stopped mentioning him intentionally or unintentionally.
