After analyzing the gains from this dinner, Avis stopped thinking about it, raised his hand to outline a magic circle of frost lines, and unlocked the secret pattern of the crystal bird on the surface of the letter.
Pulling out the light yellow letter paper, Anvis slowly unfolded it. The letter contained some of the latest information about the family, and was still written by Butler Leonard.
Duke Carlot has created a new high-level secret method that can greatly increase one's own mental activity in a short period of time, and ordered that this item must be informed first.
There are new signs of unrest among the resistance organizations in the territory of his elder brother Raymont. Raymont has arranged for people to search for their stronghold and leader, but the results are not good.
The penetration rate of constructed trains in the province has reached 27%, and the connectivity rate in major cities has reached 48%.
Olivendi College was attacked by enemies, and two students were accidentally injured. The murderer was a guard of Viscount Carker, who has committed suicide out of fear of crime.
…
Large-scale rumors appeared in the city of Karras, and folk rumors spread that the reason for the attack on the city was actually the secret weapons test of the Olivendi family.
Negative rumors of varying degrees have also appeared in other areas of the province, and the family has sent people to suppress them, but with limited success.
When he saw this item, Avis's fingers paused slightly, and then continued downward.
There was nothing to pay special attention to in the following articles. After reading all the recent news, Avis focused his attention on the rumored article again.
Massive rumors about Kallas?
Rubbing the smooth letter paper with his fingertips, Anvis' thoughts suddenly returned to the historical process of his previous life.
In the previous life, before the large-scale emergence of civilian resistance organizations in the empire, there was indeed a period of time when rumors were widespread.
These rumors were not only spread in the province of Kallas, but broke out throughout the empire.
Its content is basically unfavorable to the four major families and the royal family, and attributes the 'real' reasons for all attacks to the conspiracy of the empire's top brass.
The top officials of the empire didn't pay much attention to this at first, and just used the usual suppression methods to forcibly suppress the rumors.
In the past, the effect of this kind of suppression has been proven repeatedly, but unexpectedly, this time, the scale of the rumors became more and more intense.
In addition, most of the energy of the empire's top officials at that time was involved in other matters, leaving a gap in the empire's internal management, and turmoil began.
What people say is scary!
This is a word that Anvis has a deep understanding of. Having experienced the influence of the information age, he is very clear about the weight and harm of these rumors.
People are often more willing to believe what they overhear, some 'tattletale', rather than the 'truth' that others proactively tell them.
It is always difficult to control rumors. Just like this incident, there is obviously someone behind the scenes, which leads to the spread of rumors at an unusually wide speed and area.
Fortunately, after years of thinking, Avis has come up with countermeasures to deal with this.
Forcibly suppressing something is inefficient, and for him, the best way is to fight fire with fire, and to fight rumors with rumors.
When there are too many versions of rumors, people will have difficulty distinguishing and not knowing which one to believe. Moreover, people are always more willing to believe the conclusions they draw based on their own 'judgment'.
The best person to carry out the task of spreading rumors is the newly formed player organization he had previously formed.
After all, what players are best at doing is muddying the waters and getting benefits.
Thinking of this, Avis wrote another letter to clarify his thoughts. He sealed it with magic and sent it back again.
.….….
One day later.
Players who have joined the Secret Society were surprised to find that the mission hall has been updated with two top-level missions that have significantly more generous rewards than other missions and have a challenge level that is almost non-existent.
【Spread rumors】
Task introduction: The task publisher needs some people who know how to publicize to help spread some special news.
The truth about the city attacks! The real culprits are not actually the Olivendi family, but someone else!
They intend to make other people compete with the Olivendi family by framing the blame, while they themselves hide in the dark, preparing to wait until the Olivendi family is dragged down, and then come out to reap the fruits of victory.
Be careful not to be taken advantage of in vain, you don’t know it yet! As for the identity of the real culprit? Whoever benefits the most from the rumor incident will be the mastermind behind the attack!
Hostile forces? Small and medium-sized nobles who want to rise to power? I didn’t say anything, that’s what you said!
Mission goal: let as many indigenous people as possible know these rumors.
Mission reward: For each person promoted, 3 Mystery Society camp contribution points will be awarded, with no upper limit.
【Destroy enemies】
Mission introduction: Unknown hostile forces are still spreading rumors, eliminate them!
Mission objective: Eliminate other people who spread rumors that are detrimental to the Olivendi family.
Mission reward: For each person captured/killed alive, 150 Contribution Points to the Mystery Society camp will be awarded, with no upper limit.
"Yu Xiang, tell me, our camp has updated these two tasks. What does it mean?"
Looking at the two latest cost-effective tasks that were released, [Light and Shadow--Strike in the Sky] looked at his companions.
"I told you don't call me Yuxiang, Yingba!"
[Light and Shadow - Flying Goldfish] glared at the companion next to him, and then began to conduct his own analysis.
"Obviously, behind our camp, it should be the Olivendi family, or forces related to it. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such an obviously cost-effective top task of helping the Olivendi family reverse the rumors."
"Our mission release and reward redemption NPCs are all located in the Olivendi Chamber of Commerce. Do you still need to analyze this?"
Hearing this, Zhi Zhangkong couldn't help but show contempt in his eyes.
"Then tell me, what did you analyze?"
The flying goldfish became angry with shame.
"I know what I'm asking you for?"
Yingzhi Changkong gave him a strange look, his eyes full of "How could you ask such a question?", which made the goldfish extremely angry.
They are members of the gaming guild - [Light and Shadow] under the White Light Club, which is equivalent to the White Light Club's talent screening base.
The club recruits players to join the guild by casting a wide net, and then recruits the most elite among them into the team.
However, since Mysterious Era has not yet enabled the guild function, they can only identify their identities by temporarily changing their character names.
Since Tiramisu reported Anvis’ information to the club last time, the club’s top management has attached great importance to it.
Then, Anwes revealed the secret ceremony he founded to the Last Dragonborn, and then used his mouth to reveal the news to the White Light E-Sports Club.
The club studied the faction rules of the Secret Society and suddenly found that they seemed to be similar to the rules of the players' guild.
After some research, the club made a decision and decided to allow its members to temporarily join the Secret Society to brush up their contributions before the game officially updates the guild function.
After all, it is a pseudo-high-level camp, and the camp contribution of the Mystery Society is very precious. Among the list of camp stores currently available to players, the most advanced one even has a seventh-level magic weapon!
Of course, its price tag is also prohibitive, 420,000 camp contribution points.
