Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes - Vol 3 Chapter 188
, !
“This time, the people of the Songxing Secret Sect suddenly intervened. Although it seems to be an independent act of the other party, we all understand that this incident must be inseparable from the secret push of the marquis.”
Looking at the fluctuating duke, Anvis finally spoke his mind.
“Then, since the marquis can invite the Ability God Religion to intervene, why can’t we also pull the ring of truth in?”
“…You should understand that Anvis, the organizational interests of the Circle of Truth have an irreconcilable fundamental conflict with the nobles who rule the empire, and the future is destined to stand on our hostile position.”
After a long silence, Duke Carlot finally spoke.
He knew the identity of Anvis’ [Man in the Mirror]. When he was in the Federation, Anvis also asked him to secretly take action to help him capture the capital of the Rockhelm Kingdom.
But he didn’t expect that Anvis would dare to play so big, and even join the ring of truth himself!
“Besides, I can’t even see the strength of the mysterious leader in the circle of truth. If your identity is accidentally exposed, you will be in great danger!”
“You are right, Father, but like us, the Marquis are also enemies of the Circle of Truth. There was a saying among the people of the Empire: ‘The enemy of an enemy is a friend.’
Even if the future is destined to be the enemy, we can still cooperate with them to a limited extent until then. Use them as a knife to strike our enemies. ”
Facing the duke’s advice, Anvis was unmoved, and instead explained to the duke the benefits of doing so.
“Do you remember the information I conveyed to you before, there was once a pagan priest who claimed to be the ambassador of the imperial marquis to some remote border cities in the federation and secretly met with members of the major forces of the federation.
They offered a high price to attract the federal forces to secretly enter the empire and start a turmoil, and people in the circle of truth have also heard about this. ”
“However, according to my investigation, the esoteric sect and the ring of truth are also in hostile camps, and the reason seems to be related to the grievances between the foreign existences behind the two.
So, after learning this news, the leader of the circle of truth made a plan.
When the Marquis’ plan was launched, the main force of the Songxing Esoteric Sect would inevitably be implicated by the Olivendi family, which led to the appearance of lone people on the Marquis’ side.
At that time, the leader was ready to plan an operation to attack the marquis. And I came to you this time because I applied to the chief to be in charge of negotiating cooperation with the Olivendi family. ”
Saying that, Anvis stared at the duke with azure blue eyes, revealing a wicked smile.
“If you don’t mind, I am willing to act as the representative of the Olivendi family and negotiate with the representatives sent by the Circle of Truth!”
“…?!”
The corners of his mouth twitched. Carlot looked at Anvis and instinctively rubbed the cufflinks with his fingers, not knowing what to say.
“The request made by the leaders of the circle of truth is very simple. They hope to meet on the battlefield, and our people can temporarily join forces with them when they attack the marquis.”
After Xiaoxiao made a joke with the Duke, Anvis looked serious again,
“I think the advantages of cooperating with the Circle of Truth in this matter outweigh the disadvantages. We can use their power to lay a trap and strive to directly reduce the number of the nine marquis of the empire.”
“…It doesn’t sound like a bad thing, but this matter is not just for my Olivendi family to decide. I need to discuss with the Alfred family in advance before I can give an answer.”
After pondering for a while, the duke nodded, agreeing with Anvis’ proposal.
However, the experiment related to Fiona is a common project of the two families after all. He needs to get the consent of the Alfred family first, but it will not be too difficult.
With the current situation, no matter whether the Circle of Truth intervenes or not, the situation of the two major families will not get worse. If you refuse rashly, it may even push the opponent to the enemy camp immediately, which is meaningless.
…
The glorious calendar year 2464, the seventh day and night of the blazing moon.
The appearance of Herring Gull City is still calm, but in fact, layers of protection have been laid.
With the Lord’s Mansion as the center, the entire area of Silver Gull City was shrouded in an invisible huge circle.
The protective array that is personally arranged and controlled by the ninth-order limit guardian, even if the ninth-order comes to attack, it must be weighed.
Fiona sat anxiously in her room and waited, the two little ones huddled beside the girl, letting her hold her gently, also worried about the girl’s nervousness.
She has been told that tomorrow, there will be news that the apostles of the Songxing esoteric will come to attack.
Although there are no more details, it is easy for the girl to guess that if the family can specially notify her enemy, I am afraid that at least the ninth-order exists.
“Don’t worry too much, Lord. Even if the enemy is strong, with the protection of the great Olivendi family, you will surely be able to survive this crisis safely.”
Anvis still played the role of a qualified adjutant, comforting the girl in an unhurried tone.
Previously, as time approached, Fiona’s sense of insecurity became stronger and stronger, so the girl specially summoned Anvis, hoping to get some comfort from him.
“… Your Excellency Bo Li, do you know anything about the Songxing Secret Sect?”
The hands holding the kitten Kate and the little dragon Fia involuntarily tightened a bit, and Fiona spoke softly.
“Songxing Esoteric Sect is an ancient continental-level Ability God sect, and in the process of circulation, it has split into Ability God sects such as [Call Moon Esoteric Sect] and [Revelation Esoteric Sect].
But in the past, their reputation was not obvious, and they were more secretly holding some weird rituals in private, not to mention taking out three ninth-order powerhouses at one time.
So I personally guess that the so-called apostles of Songxing Secret Sect should have moisture in them compared to normal ninth-order powerhouses. ”
Looking at the girl who forcibly made a calm posture, Anvis could only try to explain the relationship behind her as much as possible. As for how to regulate her emotions, it was still up to the girl to solve it herself.
As a star lord and the legendary star of prophecy, this is the pressure she must bear.
In fact, many ninth-order sects are very surprised by the sudden rise of the ancient sect of Songxing Secret Sect.
In this regard, the duke privately suspects that the previous event of the Lord of Dreams’ coming may have caused some unknown far-reaching impact on the mainland, which has resulted in the other party getting any benefits.
While the Xingchen Leader was nervously preparing, the ninth-order worshipers of the royal family were actually paying close attention to this incident.
It stands to reason that the royal family should take a heavy blow to let them understand who the owner of this land is for the actions of the Songxing Esoteric Sect attacking the territory of the descendants of the duke.
But now the situation is special, Gloria III is in retreat, ignoring the government.
So the question is, who should the ninth-order royal family listen to now? Who will stand up and make a statement on behalf of the royal family?
The status of the ninth order is detached, and the many ninth orders of the royal family are only loyal to the emperor himself in name. Under normal circumstances, the status of each other is equal, and there is no situation where who represents who.
Maybe some princes and princesses are quite willing to accept this arduous task, but this involves another problem. Gloria III is only ‘severely injured’ in retreat and has not yet gone to see the gods.
When Gloria III did not specifically designate a descendant to temporarily manage the government, even if they forcibly issued an order, the ninth-order worshipers of the royal family could choose to ignore it.
In this case, there is a lot of room for manoeuvre in dealing with the attack of the Songxing Esoteric Sect.
Manage, naturally, it must be managed. This incident must end with the expulsion of the people of the Songxing Esoteric Cult from the empire.
But they will arrive later. If the people of the two major families solve the enemy on their own, then the problem will be solved naturally.
However, if the enemy has some unknown hole card, causing the two families to accidentally let Fiona be taken away, then they can only express regret, and at the same time try their best to help the two families find Fiona’s whereabouts.
