Chapter 722 Cooperation or Not

"What are you going to do, Father?"

Facing the Duke's gaze, Anvis was silent for a moment before finally speaking.

"In this matter, the interests of the Olivendi family come first, Avis."

Duke Carrot replied indifferently.

"You may not know what that key means to the family, Avis. Now, I can tell you clearly that its importance is no less important than Fiona's to the family.

Remember the previous star prophecy? In fact, there are two interpretations of it in the family.

One person believes that the so-called star in the prophecy refers to the existence of Fiona, while the other believes that the so-called star actually refers to what this key will bring! "

“So, the family must obtain the coordinates of that door no matter what the cost.

As for your female explorer classmate, for your sake, as long as she is willing to cooperate, after we obtain the exact coordinates, the ninth-level guardian will personally take action and clean her out without causing any harm to her. Her memory related to that door, and give her a generous enough compensation. "

"I can't let you do this, Father."

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Avis slowly shook his head under the Duke's oppressive gaze.

"Really? So how are you going to stop me, Avis?"

Seeing Anvis's reaction, Duke Carlot showed a funny look. He crossed his arms and looked calm.

"I can understand your desire to protect your friends, Avis. However, the underlying operating rules of this world are ultimately determined by strength.

Before you truly grow up, all your strength comes from your family. What can you do to resist your family's will? By your own strength, or by those unscrupulous forces you have developed in private?

I know that with the help of that book, you may have hidden some strength. But at your current age, no matter how strong your true strength is, how strong can you be? "

Looking at Anvis, who lowered his head slightly and seemed a little discouraged, Duke Carrot's tone softened again.

"Perhaps given you another hundred years, when your own strength breaks through the ninth level and your subordinates have cross-imperial forces, your will will have enough weight in the family.

But now, the family's will will not change because of your thoughts!

Take this incident to heart as a lesson, Avis. I hope you can understand one thing. All external objects have the possibility of leaving you. Only the power you control is fundamental.

For example, those occult studies you like, it doesn't matter if you treat them as hobbies, but you must not let them affect your own strength improvement. Because they won’t be of any help to you at the critical moment! "

After talking about a lot of great truths with great force, Duke Carrot exhaled softly and felt very satisfied.

Since his youngest son's behavior has been very mature since he was a child, there are not many opportunities to teach Anvis a lesson like this. He wants to experience this feeling.

"How about it, Anvis? Should you tell me the coordinates of the door yourself now, or should I ask your fellow explorer?"

"Sorry, Father, you may not be able to do this anymore."

To the Duke's surprise, Anvis suddenly raised his head and smiled.

"When you said you were going to send someone to find my fellow explorer, I contacted the people at the [Circle of Truth]. After learning about the situation, they took her away urgently and protected her. I'm afraid she won't be here for a long time. Will return to the main material world."

"……What did you say?"

Stunned for a moment, the Duke quickly took out a crystal ball from the ring and took a look.

The smile on his face disappeared little by little when he saw the news urgently delivered by the intelligence department that Claire suddenly left Wanglipa Mir College and then completely disappeared after a wave of dreams.

“Do you understand what you’re doing, Avis?!

If you infiltrate the Circle of Truth organization, I won't say anything. But you have to understand that after all, you are a direct member of my Olivendi family and my biological blood! Naturally, he is in an irreversible hostile position with the Circle of Truth!

Because you couldn't stop my actions, you handed her over to the Circle of Truth? How could you make such a stupid choice? ! "

Looking at Anvis in the crystal ball in disbelief, Duke Carrot's face was as cold as ice. He wanted to pry open Anvis's head and take a closer look to see what kind of evil this young son had been possessed by today.

"Sorry, Father, there is one thing I didn't tell you. Claire was originally a member of the [Circle of Truth] and was responsible for searching for ancient ruins."

Anvis calmly watched the Duke change from calm to angry through the crystal ball. Anyway, with the protection of the academy's secret lock, the Duke would not be able to slap himself through the crystal ball.

As for Claire's identity, he, the leader of the Circle of Truth, has spoken. Even if a prophet is asked to predict, Claire is still a member of the Circle of Truth today.

"……What did you say?"

Duke Carrot felt shocked again. The Circle of Truth was actually beside me.

"Father, Claire is my friend, why do you have to push her towards the enemy?

I can confess that she indeed found that 'door' during her expedition, and she did not tell me the specific coordinates. She just entrusted me to help find the key.

I borrowed the key from you because I was planning to explore with her in the future. "

"When she revealed the information about the door, you should have controlled her directly - alas, it's my fault for not letting you understand the importance of the key in advance.

Now that I know she is a member of the Circle of Truth, it's even more impossible to lend the key."

The Duke sighed, feeling a little headache about the development of the situation.

"Forget it, I will discuss this matter in the family meeting. In addition, as a punishment for your choice to harm the interests of the family, your resource quota for the next ten years will be halved!"

After the contact ended, Avis was somewhat relieved.

If it can be discussed in the family meeting, it means that there is still room for this matter.

At the same time, his clone, who is now in the floating city in the deep dream world, also explained the current situation to Claire.

"So, Avis, it turns out that you are the founder of the [Circle of Truth] organization? I am also a member of the Circle of Truth? ! "

Claire looked at Avis in surprise with her blue eyes slightly widened, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"That's right, Senior Sister Claire, as my companion, you are now also a member of my [Circle of Truth] organization. Now as the leader, I announce that Claire is appointed as the chief explorer of the Circle of Truth, responsible for exploring ancient ruins!"

Avis nodded, solemnly gave Claire the appointment, and then laughed.

"Don't be nervous, Senior Sister, it's just a title. And, I also asked my father not to disclose any news about you..."

"It's okay, Avis."

However, Claire interrupted Avis's explanation with a smile.

"No need to explain to me. We will always be companions, right?"

"Yes, we will always be companions..."

"Alarm! A powerful dream monster is approaching!"

Avis also laughed, but the next moment he was interrupted by the alarm of Bomiya and the sudden shaking of the floating city.

"...Until I am consumed by you. "

In the face of Claire's somewhat apologetic look, Avis shrugged.

"Bomia, full fire!"

.

….….

On the other side, after the contact with Avis ended, Duke Carrot immediately convened an emergency meeting.

In the eyes of the Duke, this was undoubtedly an emergency, because the Ring of Truth might have also known about the door.

Soon, at the Duke's call, several ninth-level projections of the family all arrived.

However, when the Duke explained the current situation, the opinions of several ninth-levels had irreconcilable differences.

Some people believed that there must be no compromise, and the silver key must be controlled in their hands, while others felt that limited cooperation was possible.
