His actions were actually equivalent to delaying the arrival of the family crisis for decades.
It may seem like a long time, but for mid- to high-level professionals, it is actually just a short period of time in life.
Therefore, during this precious development time that he has worked hard to gain, he must make every move carefully.
The most ideal situation is to find some foreign beings that can serve as fuel for the Old Mysteries, and it is best to increase one's attributes to level nine or above.
Even if it doesn't work, at least let yourself gain enough strength to protect yourself so that you won't be slapped to death by the enemy.
At the same time, he still had a question about the Old Mysteries to deal with.
While living a low-key life in the Federation, in order to form the prototype of the Ember Organization, Anvis took matters into his own hands and injected twisted seeds into some high-level professionals from the evil camp.
In the evolution of the Old Mysteries to the present, the upper limit of the seeds of distortion that can exist at the same time is seven.
The only carriers of the Twisted Seed who were still alive at that time were Matt, who had joined the Spark Organization, and O'Gorman, who was researching the Perfect Blood on the island.
In other words, he should still be able to use five seeds of distortion.
But when he actually controlled his subordinates, he noticed that the number of twisted seeds he could currently use was inexplicably missing by one, leaving only four.
He studied for a while, but did not find any problem, so he put the problem aside for the time being and did not continue to study it. Being able to control four high-level professionals was almost enough.
However, in the past half month, the location of the last twisted seed suddenly experienced special changes.
An extremely weak connection suddenly emerged out of thin air in his spiritual sea.
At that time, after sensing this connection, although Anvis felt a little strange, he still gradually input some mental power into it, slowly replenishing the existence of the twisted seed and preventing it from dissipating again.
And tonight is the moment it is fully restored.
Maintaining a state of shallow meditation, Avis patiently followed the invisible and slender power channel, slowly injecting spiritual power to replenish the existence of the twisted seed.
I don't know how much time passed, but finally, at the position where Anvis injected his mental power, a star that looked the same as other twisted seeds and several other normal twisted seeds, but slightly dimmer, suddenly appeared in his mind.
Lights up in the sea.
At the same time, a new piece of information was transmitted into Anvis's spiritual sea along the trajectory of starlight.
Reading the information automatically sent back by this twisted seed, Anvis finally understood the source of this twisted seed—the Bishop of the Holy See, Yanil.
Anvis previously thought that he died in the secret ritual planned by the saint, but in fact he did not really die, but was taken back for emergency rescue by people from the Holy See.
The original purpose of the ceremony was to 'create' the ninth-level chosen one, but due to unknown reasons, two of the seven bishops directly turned into light and disintegrated, and the aftermath formed the pillar of light on the night of the Holy Advent.
The remaining four bishops were also seriously injured, and each of their souls were irrevocably assimilated by the holy power, and their self-will was completely dissipated.
Only Bishop Yanile managed to survive all the dangers. After more than a year of slumber, he recently woke up again. And it was a blessing in disguise that his body's affinity and purity for the holy power were further enhanced.
At the same time, under the infusion of the ultimate holy power of the ceremony, Yanile directly broke through the final bottleneck of the eighth level and became the youngest ninth-level priest in history.
Yanile's awakening shocked the entire Holy See. Even the current Pope, St. Messia III, was alarmed. After personally visiting him, he immediately announced that he would be accepted as his student.
After receiving the information sent back by the seed, Avis felt a mixture of joy and sorrow.
The good news is that he will probably get a ninth-level undercover agent, but the worrying thing is that when the opponent breaks through the ninth level, he is not sure whether the distortion seed will still be effective against Yanile.
Although the rank of the Old Mysteries is very high, the ninth-level priests of the Holy See are different from other professionals. Facing the legendary "power of gods", even Anvis is a little unsure.
Although the connection seems to be still there, Avis is not sure whether it was deliberately retained by the other party after discovering it, intending to use it as a trap to lure him to show up.
Staring at the stars in front of him and thinking for a moment, Anvis finally decided to observe them for a while.
He had previously given instructions to Yanil, and when he obtained information about the Saint's plan, he would pass the news to him through the Seed of Distortion.
And now, as Yanile has become the Pope's student, the probability of the other party coming into contact with the real secrets of the Holy See will be greatly increased.
As long as the other party continues to send him messages, he will not lose money.
.….….
"...Yes, father, I hope to return to Pamir College to further my studies."
After spending several days playing with Fiona in the family secret place and sharing many of his travel experiences with the girl, Anvis found Duke Carrot again and applied to him to return to the Pamir Academy.
It is impossible for him to be like Fiona, hiding in the family secret realm to study and practice for a long time. For him, that is tantamount to sitting back and waiting to die.
There are many benefits to returning to the academy. First of all, it is equivalent to strengthening the concept of "Anvis himself has never disappeared" to the outside world, which in disguise confirms the authenticity of his previous letters.
At the same time, this can provide a good cover for his private actions.
Now that his real strength has broken through to the eighth level, he can leave a clone in the academy at any time to confuse the sight, while the main body takes the opportunity to leave to do other things.
Finally, as the top magic academy in the empire, he has always been secretly watching for some taboo magical objects that will appear in Pamir Academy in the future.
Pamir's students are also very valuable magical talents and are also worthy of management.
"Okay, if that's your decision."
Looking at the handsome young man in front of him who looked at him calmly, after careful consideration, Duke Carlot finally nodded and agreed to Avis's decision.
He actually knew very well that Anvis's purpose was definitely not just to learn magic, or to be able to indulge outside for a few more years like other ordinary nobles.
Carlot has always had a very tolerant attitude toward the actions of his astonishingly carefree youngest son.
As for Anvis' true strength, he actually had a vague guess. But since his child didn't want to reveal it, he wouldn't deliberately explore it.
"Is this... really good? Will Anvis be in danger?"
A moment after Anvis bowed and left, the voice of Duchess Elena sounded in a low voice from the shadowed corner of the study.
"There is nothing without risks, dear. But now that our child has made his own choice, the only thing we need to do is to provide him with blessings and support."
In front of the large writing desk, the Duke sat quietly, stroking the cool carvings of the secret gold cufflinks with his fingers, as if he was answering Elena, and seemed to be whispering to himself.
"A truly strong man can never be born in a greenhouse——"
