With shining lights, advanced mages arrived quickly one after another.

“What shall we do?”

“Save him first!”

“Save who?”

“Are you silly? Can the other one be saved now?”

“Yes, with the great prayer spell.”

“Then you just save him!”

“Forget it.”

That was the dialogue between two advanced mages.

“Search for their souls! Prevent them from going to the underworld, or it will make it more difficult for us to resurrect them!”

“Weird. We’ve only found one; the other is missing.”

“Maybe that one was destroyed in the attack just now. There were so many spells used, so it’s not weird for his soul to be destroyed.”

“Whatever it is, the one that needs to be resurrected is still here.”

That was the dialogue between several other advanced mages.

After that, it was ti to resurrect them.

Of course, there was a divine temple as well as so priests in the Highest Tower. Just a mont later, the advanced priests from the divine temple of the Master of Mystery arrived. They perford the advanced resurrection spell.

The intelligence director’s body was sowhat incomplete. The most troubleso thing was that a small part of his head was missing. Ordinary resurrection spells were useless for such a body, and only the advanced resurrection spell could solve that problem.

The advanced resurrection spell was powerful, but it also cost a lot. The advanced priest that cast this spell would be overloaded because he would have absorbed too much Divine Power to cast it. It would take at least half a year for him to recover, and it would be impossible for him to get all his power back without two to three years’ rest.

But even the advanced resurrection spell was not perfect. The intelligence director who had been killed by Wood would also beco very weak after his resurrection. This was because his brain had almost been completely blown up, and his mind would be in a chaotic state for a long ti. Even if he recovered, he might still suffer so after effects such as being slow to react and not rembering things well.

There was no doubt that he wouldn’t be able to do his original job because that required a clear mind.

And that was why Wood had pierced his head with his sword just now.

As an ace spy, Wood was not very good at magic, but he had a very deep understanding of it, especially resurrection spells.

He knew that unless legendary spells such as the great prayer spell were used, there was no way to resurrect a person whose brain had been blown up without any after effects. Even the advanced resurrection spell couldn’t do that.

When the spies carried out assassinations, if they couldn’t make sure that their target would not be resurrected, then they would have to try their best to neutralize the target’s threat. That was a professional lesson that they had learned before.

Wood had gotten a perfect score in that lesson.

Decades later, what he had done proved that he deserved that score. He had learned it very well.

The newly resurrected intelligence director was escorted away by the others, and those advanced mages also left. The deputy officer in charge of the spies stood there silently, looking at Wood’s ashes with a gloomy face.

“There’s nothing to sigh about. You never expected him to do that.” The forr spy that the deputy officer had known before ca to comfort him. “You’ll definitely be censored in a couple of days, but I think you can make it. After all, this kind of thing... No one could have expected it to happen.”

“I shouldn’t have persuaded him to co back with .”

“It’s hard to say. There are so mistakes that people can’t make, or it will lead only to death. No matter whether you persuaded him or not, there wouldn’t be any difference.”

“If I didn’t persuade him to co back, maybe he would only need to run away now. He is good at that. Nobody can catch him.”

“But do you think he’d like to be on the run like that all the ti?”

“No, he was so proud that he would rather die than do that.”

“So this is the best ending for him,” the forr spy, now the Great Patrol Magician of the Highest Tower sighed and said. “I can see that there is mostly so resentnt between them. Alas! It’s really disgusting to involve personal hatred into work!”

“But the other one can still be resurrected,” the deputy officer said quietly.

“We can’t do anything about that. After all, he is from the Lamperus family.” The magician sighed. “My work is almost over today. How about having a drink with ?”

“Well, I have nothing to do anyway.”

The last group of people were going farther and farther away. On the empty street, Sui Xiong smiled and said to Wood’s soul that had been hidden by the spell, “Now you have nothing to do anyway. How about working for ?”

Wood looked at him carefully. After a long ti, he asked, “Did you arrange all this?”

“How could it be ? I’m not so powerful.” Sui Xiong smiled and shook his head. “I was just watching on the side.”

Wood didn’t believe that at all. If one looked into his eyes, one could see the look of “you can’t cheat .”

“I’m not lying to you!” Sui Xiong certainly could see what he was thinking and sighed. “Although I’m a little unreliable, I’m still honest. I really hate doing things like digging a hole and then burying soone in it. What’s more, I always respect those who have ideals and principles. It was silly of you to insist on being loyal to the Mifata Federation. But you were silly in a respectable way. How could I do such a thing against you?”

Wood was still not fully convinced, but he had no reason to doubt Sui Xiong at the mont. He thought about it for a bit and asked, “When I was sick before, the Great Governor Felix gave the panacea to save my life. Was that also your gift?”

“Yes, it was. I don’t think that people like you should die a aningless death like that.”

“Do you think it was aningful for to die in the way I did just now?”

“You should decide whether it’s aningful or not,” Sui Xiong smiled and said. “Do you think your death was aningful?”

Wood was surprised at that. He bowed his head for a long ti and then laughed.

“I think it was. Although I’ve been expecting sothing better, the current result is at least acceptable. Anyway, I’ve cleared one hurdle for the developnt and progress of the Federation.”

Sui Xiong laughed. “It seems that you have learned a lot in the Republic of Northwest these years. You are able to talk about sothing like developnt and progress.”

Wood had never thought about that before. So now, after so careful thinking, he sighed softly.

“You’re right. Over these years, I’ve really learned a lot in the Republic of Northwest,” he sighed and said. “I wanted to show what I had learned in my country to promote the progress of the Federation. But it turned out that I’d been too simple-minded.”

Sui Xiong laughed and patted him on the shoulder. “Co on, it’s all over. There’s a saying that the dead are gone. You’re dead because of your loyalty to the Mifata Federation. That’s enough.”

Then he returned to the original topic. “You have done enough for the Federation. Would you like to work for now? Rest assured, I won’t let you fight against the Federation.”

This ti, Wood hesitated for a short while and bowed his head to Sui Xiong.

“I’ve learned a lot in the Republic of Northwest, and you’ve saved more than once. So I’ll do anything that you ask to, as long as it’s not against the Federation.”
