The man in the mirror is meeting Mrs. Mandel? And they can have afternoon tea together?
Logically speaking, as the leader of the Ember Organization, the people of the Glory Alliance should not be so friendly with him.
Putting this doubt in his heart for the time being, Gallo looked at the two Langtons and carefully asked for some details.
"So, you just said that when the poisonous snake humiliated you, the mysterious person whose identity was suspected to be the person in the mirror suddenly transmitted some kind of message to the poisonous snake, so she changed her mind?"
"Yes, she asked me to take out a book from the ruins. According to her, its cover material is similar to skin, and there is an eyeball embedded in the center."
Langton nodded and described in detail based on the news he heard at that time.
"...Eyeballs, skin?"
After recalling it carefully, Gallo finally shook his head.
"I will report this matter to the leader."
There is no way, as a professional from civilian background, Gallo's knowledge level is much lower than that of those nobles. He also knows very little about the specific information of these legendary treasures left in history.
However, even though he didn't know clearly, he knew who to go to.
Unlike him, who relied entirely on adventure and experience to become a talent, Leader Leo had studied at the Empire's School of Advanced Professionals, so he would definitely understand what it was.
"So, do you have any other news that you need to report?"
"No more, Mr. Gallo."
Langton shook his head and respectfully took Freya away.
After leaving Gallo's room, the roar of the dark crows was deafening in his mind.
"That's the Infinite Grimoire of Heros!! A magical magical object with the ultimate growth potential of the ninth level! It claims to record all the secret knowledge in the world!
That is to say, Heros was too low-key back then, so not many people really knew about this book. Otherwise, it will definitely gain the epic concept now and become a truly epic item!"
"... Of course, it is also possible that Heros died too early, and it was too late to spread its reputation."
After muttering something softly, Dark Crow's mental fluctuations turned into a roaring form again.
"No matter what method you use, Langton, you must get it! It must belong to you!"
"Lord Dark Crow...that is something that the eighth-level powerhouse wants by name. And now that the top leaders of the organization know about it, maybe even the ninth-level leader will be interested in it.
In this case, how can I get it?"
Being a little dizzy by the roar of the dark crow, Langton looked a little bitter and poured the bitter water to the dark crow.
"...I don't care about that. If you want to become stronger as soon as possible and gain your place in the coming troubled times without leaving the fate of yourself and those around you in the hands of others, then you must obtain
it!"
Of course, Dark Crow actually knew that his request was a bit overwhelming.
So, after complaining again, he changed the topic.
"Indeed, your current strength is still a little weaker. But for your current strength, I just have a way to temporarily improve your strength."
As he said this, Dark Crow's mental fluctuation suddenly revealed a kind of fanatical emotion.
"When my body was still alive, I once discovered a brand new alien power in an experimental accident.
This power has very powerful characteristics. It can directly affect the soul, and it has extremely powerful destructive power on the existing soul. I named it the power of apoptosis.
Do you still remember the first little trick I passed on to you, the Horrible Gaze? That is the result of mobilizing a bit of the lower power aura of the power of apoptosis."
After giving a warm reminder, Dark Crow felt the surprise in Langton's spirit and felt a little proud.
"Now, your strength has reached the fourth level. If you can master this power in a short period of time, it will at least enhance your self-protection ability."
"Would it be difficult to master this kind of power?"
Langton asked with some uncertainty.
"Difficult? Hehehehe..."
Sensing Langton's doubts, Dark Crow smiled strangely.
"If the person who learns this power is not you, but other ordinary fourth-level people, then even if you give them another month, I don't think they have any possibility of mastering the power of apoptosis.
Even you can only use it a little bit in a few days. But even so, its power is enough for you to pose a threat to the sixth level."
"But you can also do this with advanced outfits."
"Don't compare that idiot's toy with the power of apoptosis!"
Langton muttered something in his mind, and then he was almost stunned by the roar of the dark crow.
On the other side, Gallo, who had learned the news, had already found the leader Leo and told him all the information Langton had told him.
"……Ok, I see."
After hearing the news told by Gallo, Leo nodded, and couldn't help but believe a little more in the information about the commander of the Second Ember Legion who wanted to take refuge.
If the leader of the Ember Organization really betrayed him on the battlefield, then he would have just adapted to the situation and accepted the other party's subordinates.
"The book you are talking about should be the Infinite Grimoire of Horos, which was refined by the Speaker of the Ancient Magic Empire [the Source of All Laws] Horos.
Not to mention the eighth level, even if I am the ninth level, I will still be tempted by it."
Speaking calmly, Leo spread some knowledge for his right-hand man.
"It's just that it's still unclear how many people know this news. If too many people know it, then a war will inevitably break out."
"Of course, if this news is true, it is impossible for us to give up. I will personally go out to prevent it from falling into the hands of other organizations."
"Also, chief, I always feel that there may be some problems with the man in the mirror."
After thinking about it, Gallo mentioned it again with some worry.
"Don't worry, Gallo, I'm already prepared. No matter what choice he makes, there will be no threat to us."
Mentioning this, a mysterious smile appeared on Leo's face.
"Remember, the long night is over and dawn is coming——"
"I understand, Chief!"
Seeing Leo's performance, Gallo was immediately confident.
.….….
Several days passed, and Anvis stood on a hill on one side of the Miwela Basin, looking into the direction of the basin from a distance.
At this time, everything in the basin is normal.
Several player teams were spawning monsters and hunting a fleeing shadow warthog, but they accidentally encountered a herd of pigs and were jumped over by the pigs one after another.
A caravan was temporarily stationed on one side of the basin, and the guards and guys dispersed. Some went hunting for the main course of lunch, while others rested and chatted around a small campfire.
Although everything seems to be calm for the time being, the web of fate here has begun to create a faint whirlpool.
For Anvis, this is not just a simple treasure hunt, but also a fuse that will eventually detonate the current situation in the Federation like a barrel of dynamite.
While other resistance organizations were aggressively attacking cities and territories during this period, the Ember Organization was also attacking, but its advancement was relatively slow.
It is completely incomparable to Starfire and Glory of the Sun. Even the fourth-ranked Moon Mystery Society has conquered more kingdoms than the Ember Organization.
But Anvis didn't really do nothing. In fact, he turned from the bright side to the dark side, and began to secretly control the top leaders of the major kingdoms.
His control method is also very simple: either cooperate with him, sign a short-term master-slave contract, and become a subordinate member of the Ember Organization, or die immediately.
When he issues an order in the future, the person who signed the contract must fully cooperate with the members of the Ember Organization to capture the royal capital and destroy the original royal family. One month after the kingdom changes hands, the contract will automatically end.
Passive resistance is impossible. The contract is mandatory, and the most serious backlash is enough to make their souls collapse.
Since he did not directly attack the royal family of any country, those who were temporarily controlled by him did not show any abnormality on the surface.
Under this operation, the number of lost kingdoms has not increased on the surface, but these small kingdoms that still seem to be normal on the surface can be occupied by an order from Anvis at any time.
Including the small kingdoms that have been captured by other organizations, the number of kingdoms controlled by the resistance is enough to exceed 30% of the total.
