The meeting place between Ember and Spark was chosen at the foot of the mountains on the west side of Serra City, in a clearing in the misty forest.
When the figures of Langton, Roach and others appeared in the sight of everyone in the Ember Organization, Anvis could already vaguely sense the faint power fluctuations coming from the two of them.
It's obvious that both of them are hiding part of their strength - something most Destiny's Children do.
During this trip, the Spark Organization not only arranged for Roach and Langton to go, but also the head of this branch, the powerful sixth-level professional [Blazing Eagle] Newman.
At this time, when several people from Starfire arrived close by, Anvis, wearing a black cloak with an ember mark, slowly walked out of the crowd and gave a brief nod to them.
Then, several people took their seats at a round rock table that had been prepared in the middle of the forest. Langton and Roach sat next to the person in charge, Newman, while two men in black robes also sat next to Anvis.
A hazy magic barrier opened up, cutting off the atmosphere here.
At the same time, a dozen low-level members of the Ember and Spark organizations brought by the crowd dispersed on their own and went to serve as checkpoints in the surrounding area to alert for emergencies in the nearby environment.
"Nice to meet you two from Starfire. You can call me Weiss."
After looking at the three of them carefully, Anvis spoke calmly.
Although there is only one of his clones here, it is enough to tell something.
In his induction, the aura of the person in charge was unremarkable, just like an ordinary sixth-level person, but the other two had their own secrets.
There is a rich vitality hidden in Luo Qi's body, and he is as alive as a big tree in the sky, as if he can recover instantly even if he is fatally injured.
The aura hidden in Langton's body is like a dark abyss, which affects people's consciousness unconsciously, making them tremble from the depths of their souls.
This power seems to be able to affect the souls of others. Although the intensity of the breath is relatively 'weak', the nature of its power is extremely high.
In Avis's impression, Langton in his previous life had a very powerful and strange power. Now it seems that it was most likely passed on to him by Dark Crow, the 'portable grandfather'.
"Sir Weiss, it is also a pleasure to meet you. You can call me Newman, he is Dunlan, and he is Roach."
Newman, who was wearing a scarlet robe, nodded and also reported Roach's name and the pseudonym Langton had given when he joined Starfire.
"We are here this time hoping to form an alliance with your organization and gather all our strength to eliminate those people who are being oppressed by the nobles of the kingdom."
Without any detours, Newman gets straight to the point.
"Sorry, what Mr. Newman just wanted to say was 'rescue'."
Roach quickly provided additional explanations.
"Also, forming an alliance is something that is beneficial to both of us. Just like cutting down two trees at the same time, it is always more difficult than cutting down one tree. When we unite..."
Langton also began to recite the manuscript he had prepared previously.
"Okay, no more words, I agree!"
Taking out a handkerchief and wiping his hands, Anvis said casually.
"We...what?"
Langton was about to say something else, but then he suddenly realized that what the other person had just said was agreement, and the content he was about to continue memorizing suddenly got stuck in his throat.
"After all, a large part of why I came here this time is for this purpose. As for the specific details of cooperation, my staff will discuss it with you."
Shaking his head, Anvis explained.
"The nobles of the kingdom have oppressed us for too long, and now it has reached a limit. Although I really want to end it all with my own hands, our power is still not enough after all."
"So, in this process, we welcome all travelers, no matter how strong or weak they are, as long as they have the same goal as us, then they will be our eternal allies."
As he spoke, Anvis raised his head and spoke in an passionate tone, as if he was really fighting for the interests of the people of the Federation. The two couldn't help but admire him.
"In addition, there is one more thing. We have a special discovery that we need to warn you about. Regarding the so-called constructed network, you must pay attention to the threats related to it."
With that said, Anvis changed the topic again.
"Building a network?"
Newt and the other two looked at each other and frowned slightly, a little surprised and curious.
Although wars continue in many parts of the Federation, constructed networks are still steadily gaining popularity, and are even developing faster and faster.
From what Langton heard, after your consciousness enters the construction network, you can obtain all the beautiful things in your dreams.
But in fact, this introduction is just to allow people who have never been exposed to the Internet to quickly understand the concept of building a network.
The word "network" in the name represents the essence of the network, which is actually equivalent to a super-large sustainable illusion magic that can connect the consciousness of many people together.
Since everything is an illusory existence, people who are connected to it can naturally get all the beautiful things in their dreams.
For players, this is equivalent to building a virtual game within a virtual game.
"That's right, I don't know if your senior management understands the construction of the network. However, I must inform you in advance that there may be someone's plan behind this."
Anvis nodded and explained a little, but deliberately did not elaborate.
“Also, our main funding comes from funding from the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce.
If possible, I hope that when the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce's caravan enters your sphere of influence, you can protect their safety and avoid harassment by bandits who call themselves a resistance organization.
Of course, in return, we can also promise that when those who support your caravan pass through our sphere of influence, we will also try our best to protect their safety."
When many kingdoms in the federation announced tax increases, the big businessmen became sworn enemies of these kingdoms.
It would be difficult for the nobles of the kingdom to imagine that the base of the resistance organization would be in Serra City under their noses. Moreover, a large part of the funds for the organization's operations were donated by big businessmen who were dissatisfied with the kingdom.
Regarding the recent excessive expropriation by the kingdom's top officials, it is actually the chamber of commerce like them that has suffered the most.
Ordinary civilians can't get much resources even if they plunder everything. In comparison, these chambers of commerce can be said to be extremely rich, so they are naturally the best targets for exploitation.
As a result, many chambers of commerce were in bad luck. Not only did they lose all the wealth they earned, they even lost more money.
…
After continuing to discuss some details of cooperation, Newman took his leave and left.
Looking at the retreating figures of several people, Anvis gently raised his hand, and two tiny power seeds appeared in the palm of his hand.
One implies vigorous vitality, while the other is as deep as an abyss.
Due to the large gap in rank, he easily extracted some of the power from Langton and Roach without attracting the attention of a few people.
