Fortunately, the current situation has not deteriorated to the point where it is on the verge of annihilation.
On the one hand, the Illuminati has not discovered the specialness of their weapons yet. At least judging from Isloda's reaction that Shado saw through Person's perspective, the Illuminati's magic scepter used to attack the Elam factory has not yet been discovered.
Is there any special reaction?
The scepter itself is indeed a powerful weapon, but compared with the possible consequences of the blue flame, it is completely worth mentioning.
On the other hand, at the destruction site, as of now, although the blue flames do not show a tendency to extinguish on their own, they also have no tendency to spread outward.
As long as you control the scene and prevent people with evil intentions from approaching, at least maintaining the status quo shouldn't be a big problem.
But the follow-up is still a big trouble. Even if the Illuminati is completely eliminated, this blue flame itself will arouse the research interest of the alliance countries.
It would be a great tragedy if the main plane had not been destroyed by the Dragon Kuang Mystic Chain because of irregular research by various countries or the misuse of blue flames!
…
In the study, Shado and Niya discussed for a long time, but since both of them currently had very limited understanding of the blue flame, the final discussion inevitably pointed to dealing with the Illuminati.
"Countries should be serious this time. No one wants such a world-destroying sword to be in the hands of a conspirator. Regardless of whether he uses it or not, or even whether he has it or not, as long as there is such a possibility, all countries in the alliance cannot sit idly by.
.”
Xia Duo is relatively optimistic about the determination of the alliance countries to completely wipe out the Illuminati this time, but he is a little worried that the Illuminati will abandon the time-related rituals and then focus on lurking, which will be difficult to handle.
After all, he still doesn't have the true identity of the leader of the Illuminati and the corresponding undoubted evidence. If the Illuminati is determined to hide it, there is really nothing he can do against those guys.
Of course, if the leaders of the Illuminati are really willing to completely give up subverting the timeline and other conspiracy plans of the organization, then letting them remain hidden would actually be a good result.
Similar to the statute of limitations for criminal prosecution on Earth, the criminal will no longer be held accountable after a certain period of time.
It's just that based on the things the Illuminati does, on earth, I'm afraid no one would be willing to set such a time limit for them, but they must pursue it to the end.
But the magical world is not the earth. Judging from the objective situation of the current era in the main plane, as long as the Illuminati is really willing to give up its original plan, both countries and Shado can no longer pursue it and allow them to continue to exist.
.
…
After chatting with Niya for a while, Xia Duo's originally worried mood eased a little, and then the two of them had dinner in the Tower of Time.
After dinner, Niya took advantage of the rare time before tonight's sleeping ceremony to go to the laboratory, while Shado returned to the study to contact Badigal.
When he was in Elam before, he had already sent a message to the other party through Kulas, requesting that more people be sent to Elam to participate in the investigation. Now he just wanted to confirm whether anyone from the Seven Towers had been sent there.
Perhaps it was because he was busy that day in midsummer, or perhaps he was caught up in the attack on Elam, but it took a long time for Badigal to reply——
"I've sent people there, and I asked them to listen to your command. In addition, Ellan has requested to convene an alliance meeting. What is the situation there? Ask Kuras and he can't come up with any useful results!"
"Erlan may be hiding something. The situation is like this -"
Then, Shado briefly introduced the blue flame discovered in Elan, specifically mentioning the huge threat of the Illuminati mastering this method, and then mentioned his own views:
"Yerlan should be serious about taking action against the Illuminati. I think if it's not particularly troublesome, we should cooperate as much as possible. The Illuminati is too dangerous. Get rid of it as soon as possible and feel at ease!"
??????55.??????
"I understand. After the alliance meeting tomorrow, I will understand the relevant situation and will convene another remote meeting for everyone to discuss it together."
Hearing this answer, Sha Duo was shocked and asked quickly: "Are you going to Everesca in person?"
"I have this plan. No matter how detailed the report is, it will not be more thorough than understanding it in person. If the scene in Elan had not been closed, I would even want to make a special trip to Elan."
There was regret in Badigal's tone. When he mentioned Elan, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and quickly summoned Sha Duo, "I almost forgot to mention that one of the people going to Elan this time is your teacher. If there is
If there is an emergency, you can discuss it and decide on your own without asking me."
These words are obviously more out of trust in Iolum than Xia Duo, but Xia Duo doesn't care. He and Iolum have close ideas. If they discuss it, they will not violate him.
the rules.
However, Iolum went to Ellan in person, which surprised Shado. It seems that Iolum was also aware of the hidden risks in Elan, or maybe Iolum discovered himself in Kuras's reply.
Something of interest.
Thinking of this, Shado immediately turned to realize the incarnation of Elan, checked the magic settings in the camp, and found no one visiting or sending messages. Then he turned to realize the original body again, and ended the communication with Badigal.
Depending on the situation, Iolum either went to other attack sites, or something delayed him and he hasn't arrived at Elam yet. Otherwise, even if Iolum didn't contact him himself, Kuras would probably help with the interrogation.
Not to mention that Badigal just mentioned that the people sent there should obey his command, so reporting to him should at least be a standard procedure!
After checking the time, it was still early for the night's sleeping ceremony. Shado turned around and realized the incarnation again, and then directly summoned Iolum to ask if he was in trouble.
Unlike Badigal, who was staying in Sevington, Iolum, who had left Sevington, was obviously not that busy. As soon as Shado contacted him, there was a reply from the back -
"Originally I wanted to give you a surprise, but as soon as I arrived at Everriska, I was told that the portal leading to Ellan was temporarily unavailable. I have just completed the entry procedures with Ellan, and I should be able to arrive soon.
Elam.”
Iolum then further explained that it was for security reasons that Ellan restricted the Grand Arcanist and the High Mage from traveling to Ellan, but it was not a complete restriction. As long as the identities were confirmed and the reasons were appropriate, they could still pass.
Iolum's trip was to assist Shado in investigating the scene of the Ellan attack. In addition to his official status in Netheril, he was also Shado's teacher in private. The reason for entering the country was very sufficient.
But this is a sensitive period after all, and procedures are procedures after all, and they cannot be released immediately without doing anything.
…
Almost half an hour later, Sha Duo met Iolum in the temporary camp outside the first scene. In addition to Iolum, there were about ten people who came for reinforcements this time, including two from the Seventh Tower.
Grand Arcanist.
And this time Iolum's arrival not only brought a helping hand, but also brought some not-so-good news——
It was when Iolum was going through the immigration procedures in Evereska that Erlan, after learning his identity, asked him to bring it to Shado.
"The Elan side has once again discovered unidentified smuggling activities in Elan. I hope you will investigate on your own first. They will send someone to talk to you about it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It seems that they don't want to cause trouble with you.
