Chapter 824 Action Begins

Chapter 824 Action Begins

When the clone returned to the academy with the crystal, the Old Secret Scripture showed an eagerness to try the crystal.

However, Avis did not feed the crystal directly to it. According to his speculation, the pagan who gave him the crystal would most likely be able to sense the whereabouts of the crystal, so there was no need to alert the enemy now.

Avis acted out the whole thing, and directly sent a communication invitation to Fiona using the crystal ball equipped by his family.

"Fourth brother? What's the matter?"

Suddenly, Avis received a call. On the other side of the crystal ball, the petite girl holding a blue-gray kitten greeted Avis happily.

Ever since the last attack on Star Territory, Anvis had not contacted her for some time after handing over the position of the lord's lieutenant to her personal maid, Annie.

"Nothing, I just have nothing to do recently, so I plan to go to Xingchen Territory for a visit."

Anvis smiled.

"Come visit me, of course. When?"

Fiona was a little surprised to hear what Anvis said.

"I will go to Xingchen Territory in about half a month, on the twelfth day of the first sprout month."

Recalling the action time provided by the existence on the other side of the crystal ball, Avis told Fiona.

"The twelfth day of the first sprout month?"

When Fiona heard the time, a strange look suddenly flashed across her face.

"Not bad, any questions?"

Although the girl's expression did not change significantly, Avis still keenly noticed this detail.

“…”

Fiona did not immediately explain Avis' question.

Under his curious gaze, the girl glanced around vigilantly, waved her hand to cast a layer of magical protection, and then lowered her voice and spoke mysteriously.

"Brother, you should be careful recently and try not to leave the protection area of ​​Pamir Academy. The guardian of the family once warned me privately that the Olivendi family may face an unknown conspiracy in the near future.

The biggest crisis will come after the first sprout month, and by then, the family forces will enter a defensive state.

I have the ninth-level personal protection of my family here, so my safety is guaranteed. But you are in the capital, and the power of your family is relatively weak. If you leave Pamir Academy, you may encounter danger on the road!"

At this point, Fiona wrinkled her white nose, hugged the fatter kitten Kate tightly, and her voice gradually became softer.

"Also, in order to prevent the family's prepared information from being leaked, the Guardian asked me to keep this a secret and not tell anyone, not even if you ask...

However, if you, Fourth Brother, don't know this news, it would be very dangerous to suddenly come to Xingchen Territory to play with me. As long as you, Fourth Brother, don't tell anyone, the Guardian should not know that I leaked the news. "

"Is that so? Don't worry, Fei, I didn't hear anything just now."

After a slight pause, Avis nodded.

That’s right, the Olivendi family is one of the four major families in the empire after all. If it didn’t have the means to resist various conspiracies, it would not have been able to survive from more than two thousand years ago to the present day.

It’s just not clear how much relevant information the family’s top brass actually have.

Avis was somewhat concerned about this issue. The family leaders must have noticed something was going on and were currently taking preventive measures, asking the clan members to temporarily lower their guard.

However, it is still unclear how much is known and what measures have been taken.

"However, if what you said is true, then I am afraid that I am not safe in Pamir College. Fei, you should still remember that when we were studying together in Pamir College, a mysterious strong man invaded and took me away."

With a flash of his eyes, Avis immediately thought of a new reason.

"So, I plan to leave a magic substitute at the academy, and my real body will disguise its identity and go to Xingchen Territory to hide for a while."

"...I understand. When you arrive at Xingchen Territory, remember to inform me immediately. I will ask Annie to pick you up."

Fiona nodded with nothing to say about the problem pointed out by Avis, and secretly made up her mind that she must protect Avis this time.

The last time Avis was captured by the enemy, Fiona felt worried and guilty at the same time.

Wow, when the fourth brother was captured in her place, he must have suffered a lot at the hands of the enemy. Now that she has great power, she will never be like last time, watching Anvis being captured by the enemy.

Afterwards, Avis continued his daily life as if nothing had happened. The other people who participated in the dream dinner did not show anything unusual, as if the dinner they attended in the dream world that night was really just an illusion and did not happen in reality.

But Avis knew that this was only calm on the surface. In the dark, all forces were temporarily dormant, waiting for the best opportunity like predators. As long as the time came, a turbulent wave would erupt under the calm surface.

During this period, half a month seemed to pass extremely quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the eve of the start of the plan.

The twelfth day of the first sprout month in the 2466th year of the Glorious Calendar.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The sun in the sky still rises and sets as usual, and nothing seems different.

But for those lurking in the shadows, the time has come.

Just as planned, Anvis left a clone at Pamir Academy as a cover, and secretly rushed to Star Territory with the crystal.

However, what was somewhat different from the information he told Fiona was that it was actually only the clone who went to Star Territory.

"He's already set out and is ready to take the next step."

On a rocky mountain thirty miles away from the Star Lord's city, Silver Gull City, several beings whose figures were concealed by illusions were looking at the huge and prosperous silver-white city in the distance below them.

If someone could see through their concealment, they would be shocked to find that these peepers are actually terrifying ninth-order beings.

“According to the information, this city was previously just an ordinary medium-sized main city in the Karlas Province, and its size was not even one-third of what it is today.

But after Fiona took it over, under her drastic reforms, a large number of foreign professionals and new technologies such as magic construction gathered here, expanding it to such a level in just a few years.

The most amazing thing is that despite the huge cost of crazy expansion of the city, the annual fiscal revenue of Yinou City is even increasing, and the city's public security is always maintained well.

Even without considering her own strength, she is an existence that cannot be underestimated just based on her ability to govern the territory. The Olivendi family is really lucky."

Looking at the countless wriggling carriages and horses in front of the city gate, Marquis Polochi commented quietly.

"The location of the holy relic is being moved and has now arrived at the Star Territory. Hehe~ That little guy seems to have changed his appearance. He is quite alert."

Next to him, the Pope of the Revelation Esoteric Church chuckled, and the charming voice sounded like a silver bell.

"Then, may we pluck this star."

Marquis Winter raised his hand slightly, and a mighty wave of magic surged out from his hand and gathered in the sky. The surging dark red thunderclouds began to gather, and a huge oppression enveloped the sky above Silver Gull City, as if the sky was about to collapse.

At the same time, he took out a half-broken stone tablet and input magic power to activate it. It was a contact token he left for the Circle of Truth during the meeting. Through this half of the stone tablet in his hand, he could ignore the space and leave a message to the other stone tablet.

"The operation is about to begin. I hope you will not be absent."
