Chapter 283 Fighting Poison with Poison

Chapter 283 Fighting Poison with Poison

After analyzing the gains from the dinner, Avis stopped thinking about it and raised his hand to draw a magic circle with frost lines, unlocking the crystal bird secret pattern on the surface of the letter.

Pulling out a yellow letter, Avis slowly unfolded it. The letter contained some of the latest family intelligence, still written by Butler Leonard.

Duke Carrot has created a new high-level secret method that can greatly increase one's mental activity in a short period of time, and has asked that this must be informed first.

There are signs of unrest from a new resistance organization in the territory of the eldest brother Raymont. Raymont has arranged people to search for its base and leader, but the effect is not good.

The penetration rate of assembled trains in the province has reached 27 percent, and the connectivity rate among major cities has reached 48 percent.

Olivendi College was attacked by the enemy, and two students were accidentally injured. The murderer was a guard of Viscount Carker, who committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

A large-scale rumor spread in the city of Karlas, and the rumor among the people was that the reason the city was attacked was actually the secret weapons test of the Olivendi family.

Negative rumors of varying degrees have also appeared in other areas of the province. The family has sent people to suppress them, but the results have been mediocre.

When he saw this item, Avis's fingers paused slightly, and then continued to move downwards.

There was nothing special to pay attention to in the following few messages. After reading all the recent new messages, Avis's attention refocused on the rumor.

A massive rumor about Karras?

As his fingertips stroked the smooth letter paper, Avis' thoughts suddenly returned to the historical process of his previous life.

In the previous life, before the large-scale emergence of civil resistance organizations in the empire, there was indeed a period of time when rumors were spreading.

These rumors spread not only in the province of Carlas, but broke out throughout the empire.

The content is basically unfavorable to the four major families and the royal family, and the "real" reasons for all the attacks are attributed to the conspiracy of the imperial high-level officials.

The imperial high-ranking officials initially did not take this seriously and simply adopted conventional repressive methods to forcibly suppress the rumors.

In the past, this kind of suppression has been effective, but unexpectedly, this time, the scale of the rumors has become more and more serious.

In addition, the energy of the imperial high-level officials at that time was mostly diverted by other matters, which led to a management gap within the empire and the unrest began.

What people say is scary!

This is a word that Anvis has a deep understanding of. Having experienced the influence of the information age, he is well aware of the weight and harm of these rumors.

People are often more willing to believe some 'rumors' they overhear rather than the 'truth' others tell them.

Rumor control is always a difficult task. Just like this incident, there is obviously a mastermind behind the scenes, which leads to the extremely wide speed and area of ​​rumor spread.

Fortunately, after years of thinking about it, Avis has come up with a solution to deal with it.

Forced suppression is a very inefficient approach, and for him, the best way is to fight poison with poison, to counter rumors with rumors.

When there are too many versions of a rumor, people will find it difficult to distinguish and don't know which one to believe. In addition, people are always more willing to believe the conclusions they draw based on their own "judgment".

The best person to carry out the task of spreading rumors is the player organization he had just formed.

After all, what players are best at is muddying the waters and getting benefits.

Thinking of this, Avis wrote another letter, explaining his thoughts in it. He sealed it with magic and sent it back. . ….….One day later.

Players who joined the Conclave were surprised to find that the mission hall had updated two top missions whose rewards were obviously more generous than other missions and whose challenge levels were almost low.

【Spreading rumors】

Task introduction: The task publisher needs some people who are good at publicity to help spread some special news.

The truth behind the city attack! The real culprit was not the Olivendi family, but someone else!

They intended to frame others and make them fight against the Olivendi family, while they themselves hid in the dark, ready to come out and reap the fruits of victory when the Olivendi family was delayed.

Be careful not to be used for nothing without knowing it! As for the identity of the real murderer? Whoever benefits the most from the rumor incident is the mastermind behind the attack!

Hostile forces? Small or medium-sized nobles who want to rise to power? I didn't say anything, you said that yourself!

Mission objective: Let as many indigenous people as possible know these rumors.

Mission Reward: For each person promoted, 3 points of Contribution to the Mystic Society will be awarded, with no upper limit.

【Eliminate the enemy】

Mission introduction: Unknown hostile forces are still spreading rumors, eliminate them! Mission objective: Eliminate other people who spread rumors that are unfavorable to the Olivendi family.

Mission Reward: For each person captured/killed alive, you will be rewarded with 150 points of Contribution to the Mystery Society, with no upper limit.

"Yu Xiang, what do you think our faction has updated these two tasks? What does that mean?"

Looking at the two latest high-cost-effective tasks, [Light and Shadow - Yingji Changkong] looked at his companions.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I told you not to call me Yu Xiang, Ying Ji!"

[Light and Shadow - Flying Goldfish] glared at his companion beside him, and then began his own analysis.

"It's obvious that the Olivendi family or forces related to them are behind our camp. Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such a high cost-effective task to help the Olivendi family reverse the rumors."

"Our mission release and reward redemption NPCs are all standing in the Olivendi Chamber of Commerce. Do you really need to analyze this?"

Upon hearing this, Yingji Changkong couldn't help but look at him with contempt.

"Then tell me, what did you analyze?"

The flying goldfish became angry and embarrassed.

"I know why I'm asking you?"

Yingji Changkong looked at him strangely, his eyes full of "How could you ask such a question?", which made Jinyu extremely angry.

They are members of the gaming guild under the White Light Club - [Light and Shadow], which is equivalent to the talent screening base of the White Light Club.

The club recruits players to join the guild by casting a wide net, and then absorbs the most elite among them into the team.

However, since the guild function has not yet been enabled in Mystic Era, they can only identify their identities by temporarily changing their character names.

Ever since Tiramisu reported the information about Avis to the club last time, the club's top management has attached great importance to it.

Afterwards, Avis revealed to the Last Dragonborn that he was the founder of the Secret Ceremony Society, and then used him to reveal the news to the White Light E-sports Club.

The club studied the faction rules of the Secret Order and suddenly found that they seemed to be similar to the rules of the Player Guild.

After some research, the club decided to let its members temporarily join the Conclave to increase their contributions before the official game updates the guild function.

After all, it is a pseudo-high-level camp, and the camp contribution of the Conclave is very precious. In the list of camp stores currently accessible to players, the highest level even has a seventh-level magic weapon!

Of course, the price tag is equally prohibitive, at 420,000 points of faction contribution.
