207: Chapter 1 Tripartite eting_3 207: Chapter 1 Tripartite eting_3 “Mithril pillar, anonymous agents, you can call Will.”
“Ah…
the ‘Gun of Punishnt’ of the Mithril pillar.” Liu Zhongwu said with a smile, “I’ve long admired you, your reputation precedes you.”
“Likewise, I express my respect to the two of you, Mr.
Xuan Zhi of the Yiji Hall and the Seventh Knight of the Knight Order,” Jas stated succinctly, “Both of you are Calamity Mages, more expert in the Zero Island issue than I.
Do you have any opinions?”
Orianna took the lead, “I do not recomnd dispatching a Creator Realm Mage directly.
Due to the influence of the Phantom Light Disaster, the geography of Zero Island is too peculiar; the divinations conducted locally have astonishing accuracy.
The information disturbance caused by a Creator Realm Mage’s actions is too great, rendering any investigation purposes on Zero Island easily detectable by their Calamity Mages.”
“I need to confirm a premise, what if the two of you cooperated?”
Liu Zhongwu sighed, “Difficult.
Not to ntion that Knight Orianna is not a Calamity Mage skilled in divination, the cities of the sky and Supibia are both too far from Zero Island.
Trying to obscure the trail of Creation for a long duration, I fear it’s unachievable without movent.”
Liu Zhongwu and Orianna both had heavy responsibilities and it was impossible for two senior mbers to leave their positions.
“Then we must temporarily abandon this idea.”
Will pulled out a notebook and made two notes, “Let us first confirm the main objective of this mission.
Determine the real source of the Unity Skill, uncover their reason for seeking it, and identify the mastermind behind the Colored Glaze Disaster.
These three points are of utmost importance and their significance cannot be prioritized.”
After confirming their agreent, the agent continued his briefing.
“The target location of this mission is complicated geographically, the enemy’s strength is not weak, and the overall danger level is high.
We need targeted strategies.
There exists a high degree of divisiveness within the Impermanence Mages on Zero Island.
Currently, due to political reasons, we cannot investigate openly; initiating from within and gaining the support of one faction might be an approach we can adopt…”
Will spoke ceaselessly, producing within ten minutes five highly feasible and detailed plans that were obviously pre-prepared, so even involving covert connections between Zero Island and the United States.
Orianna couldn’t help but be surprised by the latter plans, and when the agent’s proposals took a pause, she couldn’t help but ask, “Mr.
Will, I an no offense, but should this be discussed with us?”
“This mission relates to the giant dragon phenonon, Miss Orianna,” Will straightened his collar, “We don’t talk politics here, only dragon slaying.”
Liu Zhongwu pretended he hadn’t heard; any fool would know not to take an agent’s word as truth.
By revealing all these universally understood secrets, the other party was making a statent: the unspoken remain unspoken, and he was happy to collaborate with such a forthright man.
“I did prepare a simple plan beforehand.”
He tapped his hand and a docunt appeared in the center of the triangular table.
Liu Zhongwu spoke with a smile, “I believe what we need now is a specialist eting the following criteria.
His combat power shouldn’t be too high, at least not to alarm the enemy; he must be able to stabilize the situation in ergencies; he should have experience facing the giant dragon phenonon, preferably having seen a Monarch; most importantly, he should have enough allure for the people of Zero Island, making them risk letting him onto the island… I’ve selected an experienced combat specialist for this investigation mission’s core.
What do you think of this, gentlen?”
Orianna looked at soone’s photo on the file, her expression changed slightly, yet she said nothing.
The anonymous agent carefully reviewed the electronic file.
He had heard of this specialist’s na and seen his resu, but this detailed file still surprised him.
With 9 years of combat experience, facing modern military forces, the highest class of Dragon Species, Creator Realm Mages, and even two Monarch Level giant dragons…
and most importantly, he had co back alive from these battles.
The ace agent couldn’t help but express his admiration, “Perfectly suitable, Mr.
Liu.
He is truly legendary.”
“My own combat experience might not even compare to that of this specialist,” Liu Zhongwu sincerely said, “Miss Orianna had worked with him during the disaster three years ago, you might want to hear the Seventh Knight’s evaluation of him.”
He is a self-righteous, bullying child, a fool who is constantly reprimanded by Morton and Alandia…
Familiar with this “legendary specialist’s” personality, Orianna almost blurted out her thoughts as she listened to the two n seriously praising him.
“Cough.” She cleared her throat, “He is a trustworthy comrade and a friend to all knights of Morton.”
“I have no reason to object,” Will said, taking out his notebook to jot sothing down.
“Let us make that the focus of our specific plan and consider the selection of other mbers.”
·
Three hours later.
In the projection, Will, donning a top hat, bowed and said, “It has been a pleasant eting.
I suggest we adjourn for thirty minutes to allow us all so ti to report progress and discuss details.”
“No problem, Mr.
Will.”
Agent Will left first.
Knight Orianna covered her forehead and sighed silently.
“Mr.
Liu, you should know how dangerous his situation is.”
Mr.
Liu Zhongwu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Miss Orianna.
Sky Extre is acting as his personal instructor, and I believe Mr.
Yan can help him solve so of the problems.”
As a knight, Orianna was not worried, but as a friend, she was extrely concerned.
Zero Island was no place of safety, with too many dangerous things lurking within the island nation.
Without Yuankai’s help, could he manage to break out on his own?
“You didn’t even ask for his opinion.”
“He will definitely agree, a hundred percent,” said the portly middle-aged man as he picked up a large teacup and took a sip of tea.
“Young people, who doesn’t love to travel?”
Orianna frowned, making no attempt to hide her expression.
She worriedly said, “Oh Lord…
I think I need to get in touch with them.
Where is Gongsun Ce now?”
·
Where was Gongsun Ce now?
He was unaware that in just a few words, he had been chosen as the candidate to venture into the dragon’s den.
He was also unaware that an old friend planned to contact him today.
Even more so, he didn’t know what ti it was.
Gongsun Ce was unwittingly swearing.
“Damn it.”
Bang!
Bang!
The powerful legs of the Biochemical Kangaroo kicked into the sand, propelling him two ters into the air.
The sky was clear, stretching endlessly, with a black sun hanging in the sky, baking everything on the earth with its scorching rays.
Occupying half the sky was an unbelievably large steel ship; covering the entire land was a vast expanse of endless yellow sand.
The dunes, large and small, undulated like mountains, and in the air twisted by heatwaves, one could faintly see buildings deep in the desert, resembling an old apartnt building from the 1990s.
Gongsun Ce, dressed in a shirt and long pants, was riding on the back of a five-ter-tall Biochemical Kangaroo, bouncing energetically across the desert.
His mouth was dry, his body sweaty, and he was nearly overwheld by the high temperatures of the desert.
In this inconceivable world, the young man with gray hair yelled frantically.
“Where on Earth am I?!”
