The task list of "Mysterious Era" determines the order of tasks according to their level and importance.
The higher the level, the more important the tasks to be completed, and the higher they are located. However, when the task list is not specifically clicked, the default area of the panel is only large enough to display the top two or three items.
Looking at the introductions to the first two tasks, Anvis secretly frowned, but remained calm on the surface.
Are the people in the Eyes of the Eye planning to secretly win over the Marquis of the Empire and launch an attack in the ruins?
Moreover, judging from the second half of the first mission, ‘Get the key things in the ruins before the four major families of the empire’, it seems that the people in the Eye of the Eye have already determined that there are still problems in the ruins.
Since he didn't click on it, Anwes couldn't see the task rewards, nor could he see the specific completion progress. But this task description alone had allowed him to obtain enough information.
Due to his reasons, the original trajectory of the web of destiny has deviated a lot and is gradually moving in a new direction. However, it seems that some major events are still developing in the direction of the previous life.
As for the second task... now you are also a mole, are you surprised?
"Okay, Mr. Ling, why did you go to all the trouble to come to me this late at night?"
After taking a closer look at Zero's appearance, which looked like an ordinary student, Anvis finally spoke again, with no hint of happiness or anger in his tone.
It was obvious that the other party had changed his appearance in some way. And the method was so clever that even he couldn't tell it at first glance.
Fortunately, he had seen the photo of Zero himself on the official website of Silver Blue Club, and he didn't look like this.
"It's nothing. It's just that when I met with the Marquis of Barman before, I heard from His Majesty the Marquis that your Excellency has outstanding talents, no less than the former His Majesty the Duke of Karlas."
Not knowing that he had been seen, Zero showed a polite smile and patted Anvis's ass quietly.
This is one of the skills of verbal negotiation. Unintentionally revealing that one has contacts with other important people can often leave a profound image in the other party's mind.
"Uncle Barman?"
Sure enough, after hearing Zero's words, Avis's expression softened slightly.
In the background story of the game, the Marquis of Barmain is a person who is closer to Olivierdi. It is obvious that Zero has done his homework before coming here.
"That's right, so I hope to cooperate with you. As a token of my sincerity for cooperation, I also bring you a special secret message.
It’s about the meteorite ruins that will be selected by your college as the venue for the competition three days later.”
With that said, Zero calmly threw out the bait.
This is his basic operation. For these descendants of the great nobles who have not experienced the coming-of-age ceremony, he mainly focuses on finding ways to win over and cooperate.
Different from the nobles who have obtained their own territory through the coming-of-age ceremony, these descendants of the great nobles who have no real power and weak subordinates usually have more needs.
In other words, it is easier to trigger tasks, and the level of the tasks is usually not too high or too low, and the rewards are particularly generous, which is suitable for sharing with professional players in the club.
Yes, what he is doing now is actually to explore high-value tasks for the club to the maximum extent possible.
"Secret news related to the ruins?"
Although his tone was still cold, Anvis's eyes showed a hint of movement, and he seemed to be a little interested in what Zero said.
"Sir Anvis, we are just standing in front of the door talking like this. Why don't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
Zero suddenly stopped talking and just looked at Anvis with a smile.
"..."
With a slight frown, Anvis looked at Ling, who looked confident and confident in front of him. He was silent for a moment, and then suddenly started laughing.
"Of course not, please come in, Mr. Zero."
Afterwards, the two entered the reception room of the residence one after another.
"Please sit down and drink whatever you want."
Under the soft golden light of the crystal chandelier, Anvis waved his hand casually, and all kinds of magic drinks suddenly appeared on the pearl wood coffee table.
"Thank you for your hospitality."
Zero was not polite. He sat down on the sofa and naturally picked up the only cup of Venus raspberry juice with the highest value. He drank it all in one gulp, and an upgrade prompt appeared on the back panel.
"Okay, let's get down to business. I think you should know that the ruins have been explored by many ninth-level ministers."
With that said, Zero put the slender goblet in his hand back on the tray and leaned lazily on the sofa.
"But unfortunately, your Majesty has not searched thoroughly, and some of the most critical things are still sleeping at the bottom of the ruins, waiting for the moment to reappear.
And this Pamir Academy competition is actually to use the presence of students to inspire them."
"If this is the information you want to say, then it is a pity that I have already learned about this through family channels."
Sitting opposite Zero, Avis shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands slightly, showing that he was not concerned.
In fact, the reason for this temporary change of venue has been passed down within the family.
The empire's top officials also became aware of the problems with the ruins through the changes in the Web of Destiny. They suspected that there might be some highly hidden things in the ruins that must meet specific triggering conditions in order for them to appear.
For example, it requires professionals whose strength is below a certain level, or simply professionals with a certain special bloodline to enter.
And the students of Pamir Academy, which brought together the vast majority of geniuses, monsters, and children of destiny in the entire empire, were just right for triggering the hidden conditions.
Because the things represented by this ruins were too important, after many heated debates, everyone on the jury finally voted unanimously.
Yes, this may be dangerous for students, but it also represents an unimaginably huge opportunity.
However, after careful analysis, the empire's senior officials discovered that due to the previous impact of the beast tide, all the protection systems in the ruins had been triggered, and the current danger level had dropped to an acceptable level.
What's more, due to risk considerations, this nominal college competition will be secretly accompanied by multiple ninth-level professionals for protection, which can completely guarantee that the students will not be in real danger.
"...That's right. After all, the Olivendi family, known as the 'Immortal Crystal Bird', should receive this news as soon as possible."
After listening to Anvis' words, Zero nodded, and then the conversation suddenly changed.
"So, what if I were to tell you next: more than five marquis are conspiring to join forces secretly, preparing to get the secret treasure in the ruins before the four major families do when the hidden things in the ruins are triggered?"
