When Ron woke up the next day, he washed up with Vivian's help and then began to study the cube magic device.

While Ron was studying the situation, on the other side, more than ten miles from the city, the two assassins met face to face.

Jim, with two bandaged arrow wounds, found the leader.

Beside a slope in the wild.

Jim reported the situation to the chief: "Chief, of the thirty-three who came out this time, only the two of us escaped..."

The leader was still wearing a black veil, and Jim couldn't see the leader's expression.

Jim waited a while longer, but the leader finally spoke up: "The intelligence was wrong. Lord Sandy is a master of the magic sword. I'll go back and report to the organization first. Also, about this Shadow Punishment..."

"The succubus side has made some progress. You, find an opportunity to go back and remind the succubus to investigate the situation in Sandy Territory more thoroughly. Also, after this incident, the Sandy Territory side is indeed quite familiar with us, which is very unusual. You stay here for a while and investigate carefully. This leader suspects that there may be a traitor in our organization..."

Jim listened, pondering the situation. Indeed, he had originally intended for his companions to launch a counterattack, but the enemy knew them too well and seemed to have anticipated everything, except for a few last-minute surprise attacks that yielded some gains.

Upon hearing this, Jim bowed and accepted the order: "Yes, sir. Jim will return to the organization as soon as possible after the results are available."

"Very well, then be careful to complete the mission." After saying this, the leader wearing the black veil turned and left.

They arrived intact and returned intact. The leader assassin followed the usual practice of assassins: he would not make a move unless he was certain of a kill. Unfortunately, the operation to teleport the target failed.

On the way, the leader assassin only removed his black mask when no one was around. His face was that of an ordinary person. After entering the new city, he circled around several times to make sure it was the right place. He changed his clothes, left the city, and took another detour. Suddenly, the leader sped away.

When the leader assassin emerged from the next city, he was wearing a different set of clothes.

Within the organization, few knew his exact identity or appearance; all that was known was that he usually returned successfully after going out on missions, rarely failing.

These past few days have passed just like that.

On this day, Jim actually managed to sneak back to Sandy City.

After confirming that no one was following him, he leaped into the backyard of the interpreter's shop.

All that's left is to wait.

Waiting is a fundamental skill for assassins.

From midday until nightfall, Fanny finally got some rest, and when she returned to the backyard, she noticed something was wrong.

"Come out!" Fanny looked in a certain direction.

This was also Jim deliberately revealing his presence; Jim emerged from the corner.

When the two met again, Jim only saw a succubus's gloating expression, and then heard her say, "How about it? You failed! I told you to watch out for Shadow Punishment..."

This behavior was quite natural for Fanny; demons are inherently free-spirited, yet when they act like nobles, they are born nobles...

Or, to put it another way, the higher-ranking members of the demon race are born actors.

Jim felt a sense of unease. Nobody wants to be gloated over, but he still needed their help!

Jim endured it. (╬￣皿￣)

After a while, Fanny's mocking expression faded, and Jim said coldly, "Demons, your achievements have been recognized by the leader. Although Shadow Punishment has few top-level experts, it is still a great enemy of us."

Fanny was rude and interrupted Jim again, even though Jim hadn't yet given the leader his instructions!

Fanny retorted, "I told you, why did you insist on talking about a counterattack! Don't you even consider whose territory this is? The Twin Gods Cult is here, how can we be allowed to act recklessly?"

Jim couldn't take it anymore: "Demons... Alright, let me finish. After I leave, I, Jim, can't control what you want to preach to me."

Fanny sneered inwardly, "Now that you're gone, who am I supposed to yell at? I'm angry at you guys for daring to mess with my great master."

Since Fanny bought her own house through her own hard work, her sense of belonging to Sandy Territory has grown stronger day by day, and now Fanny is gradually considering herself a citizen of Sandy Territory.

After the territory's unemployment relief law was enacted, she lost her job, but she was still eligible to receive magic crystals every month. Fanny's favorite thing to do lately was to touch her own territory's citizen sign from time to time in order to receive unemployment relief and other benefits.

Rumor has it that people will use this to enroll their children in school in the future...

Fanny looked at the enemies in her territory with disgust, wishing that all of them would die.

Jim still thought Fanny was mocking him, so he quickened his pace. The demons didn't like him, Jim, and Jim didn't like the demons either:

"The leader has ordered that the succubi must gather all information about Sandy Territory, including Shadow Punishment and Lord Sandy, and much more..."

In short, it meant what the leader meant by "investigating further." After saying this, Jim turned and left.

That succubus is despicable; the demon race's identification with the organization is still too low.

We have to cooperate with the demons, it's really tough! (￣～￣＃)

Jim emerged from the interpreter's shop a while later, still lamenting.

Inside the store, the succubus Fanny was a different story. She put away all her acting skills and coldly analyzed the previous situation.

Judging from the assassin Yijim's performance, her preemptive action was effective; the enemy has not yet suspected her betrayal. However, she must remain vigilant, and Fanny plans to stay home as much as possible lately.

The more you do, the more mistakes you make; the less you do, the fewer times you'll miss something.

Meanwhile, Fanny also planned to give Xiao Liu a few words of encouragement when he came next time. Judging from the results, the instructors she brought back were generally pretty good... Hehe, I'm in a good mood tonight (?ˉ?ˉ?), so I'll eat more human food.

"Pamela, come in... I have a task for you. Go out, we're having a big meal tonight, so buy plenty of food! Oh, and cooked food..."

...

...

An incident caused an undercurrent of unrest in Sandy Territory. Not only forces from the Underdark, but also spies from all over the continent wrote reports.

Sandy has changed.

Archbishop Sandy was assassinated...

No legends have been found among the assassins of the Underdark…

Sandy's side suffered losses...

...

With various intelligence reports converging, the small Sandy Territory has truly attracted attention.

Ron can still roughly deduce the current situation.

Inside the lord's manor.

Ron placed the cube-shaped magic device in the study.

After several days, I finally figured out most of it. Fortunately, I am a superhuman, and my soul is enough to deduce the inner meaning of the structure.

Rita then recorded the intricate magic runes on the cube magic device after Ron deciphered them.

Now, Rita has a thin booklet at her side.

Ron just hopes that the magic projection technology can be used for both military and civilian purposes as soon as possible!

Ron's research perspective is that of humans, while Rita's is mostly from the perspective of divine beings, oh right, and also from the perspective of the ancient mechanical spirit race.

"Alright, Rita, refine it a bit more, then submit the final product to the expert for review." Ron said, referring to the multiple angles and different research efforts he had undertaken, attempting to achieve multi-faceted applications from a single point...

Magic projection is such a fantastic technique.

In just a few hourglasses, Rita had already obtained the result. For Rita, this time for refinement was already quite long. During this much time, Rita also conducted numerous trials, verifications, preliminary deductions, and evolution updates.

As evening fell, Ron looked at the new technique in his hands, while also asking Chelsea a question.

Even before Rita finished refining the content, Ron had already summoned Chelsea.

Chelsea had no choice but to give up. After receiving some promises from Ron, Chelsea revealed the specific combination spells and other details.

Ron and Rita each have their own memories.

Soulstones assist in this process; they have many uses and are truly wondrous, yet there are still quite a few.

Ron hopes that a magical technology to replace the Soul Stone will appear soon.

Chelsea was categorized as a labor reformer by Ron, simply because Chelsea players were not professional assassins.

The power of the Shatian Palace is too great. When some weaker individuals are threatened, they have no choice but to assist in the assassination.

Chelsea is essentially a relic explorer, and many of her relic artifacts are still held captive on the other side of the Underdark.

Ron is mentioned again here for being able to make Chelsea reluctantly submit to the Assassins organization.

The mad alchemist, Hughes Ilzer.

In Chelsea's testimony, he described himself as a mad, academically brilliant man, a scholar with mysterious and powerful abilities, someone Chelsea respected.

Hughes had stated that Chelsea would cooperate with the organization to a limited extent, and that he would return Chelsea's belongings to her after he had finished studying the findings of Chelsea's exploration of the ruins.

Ron listened, but he wasn't optimistic about Chelsea getting what they wanted. He thought Chelsea might get ripped off again.

Hughes Illezer!

The secrets of the Divine Cult mention that this person must be hundreds or thousands of years old, which suggests that he is an extraordinary being.

Why!

There are clearly many more professional researchers in the world, so why can't their research directions be a little better?! ㄟ(≧≦)ㄏ

I sighed.

Ron had already told Chelsea to back down.

Alright, the technique is now complete, and the book even includes the incantation for Rita to complete the writing with her feather. Ron and Vivian are now working together on the light-printing process inside the manor...
