Chapter 268 Action and Gathering
After the first group of twelve gray-cloaked figures walked out of the teleportation array, the teleportation array went out for a moment, and then suddenly lit up with an even stronger white light.
A figure with no breath appeared in the teleportation array. However, on the left shoulder of his grey cloak, there was a special silver-white tower-shaped emblem.
Avis had also seen that emblem, which was the symbol of a large force, the [Silver Tower].
This force originated from the Itel Federation. It was rumored to have been originally formed by several lone high-level wizards with the goal of studying the relics of the ancient high elf era. On the surface, there are also ninth-level wizards.
But now it seems that this force is not that simple.
After the figure left the formation, the light of the formation did not dim immediately, but instead condensed into a second figure.
Finally, a total of three grey-cloaked figures with tower-shaped emblems on their shoulders teleported over.
After the leader took a closer look at Avis, Avis suddenly felt that the world around him had darkened, with only the figure still remaining clear in his sight.
He immediately realized that he was now in the spiritual space.
At the same time, the figure in the gray robe with silver stripes lifted his hood in his sight, and it was none other than Duke Carrot!
"How sure are you, Avis? In this operation, I used my own name and claimed that I had obtained information about the Door in the Eye through secret intelligence channels."
"For this reason, the ninth-rank elders of the Alfred and Aslade families will also participate in this operation."
With an extremely serious expression on his face, Duke Carrot stared at Anvis with his blue eyes, as if he wanted to see the answer he needed from his eyes.
"Don't worry, father. I am more than 90% sure that that is the secret gathering point of the Gate of the Eye."
Under the Duke's majestic gaze, Anvis did not show any nervousness, but looked back calmly with an extremely confident tone.
"And when I passed by there before, I saw two carriages parked in the carriage shed with horses still tied to them."
"This is enough to prove that there is a high probability that there are people inside. If we leave as soon as possible, we may even be able to stop them before they leave."
Seeing Anvis's calm demeanor, the Duke nodded slightly.
"So, who's that girl next to you?"
"She is Alyssa. When we were teleported out of the True Knowledge Society's trial site, she happened to be teleported near me, so we temporarily traveled together."
Anvis replied.
"I see."
The Duke nodded again.
The next moment, the surrounding environment returned to normal.
Most people in the room were unaware, but the other two cloaked figures with silver emblems glanced at Duke Carrot as if they were aware of something.
The Duke ignored this and just took out two gray cloaks and handed them to Anvis.
"You can stay with me for now, but if a big fight breaks out soon, then stay away from me."
"I see."
Avis nodded, took the cloak, and handed one to Alyssa.
"What's this?"
Touching the cloak with a strange touch in her hand, the young knight was a little curious.
"A magic cloak made of silver mimicry hide. It can be used to conceal one's appearance, figure, and aura. It is a must-have item for doing good deeds without leaving a name."
After fastening the mithril buckle on his chest, Avis put on a grey hood and skillfully activated the magical effect of the cloak, making his aura no different from that of other grey-robed men.
“I’ll give you that one, Alyssa. It’s very convenient for daily use.”
"Give it to me? But this should be a very valuable item..."
Alyssa put it on with a little unfamiliarity. When she heard Avis' words, she was stunned for a moment.
"Don't worry, it's not a valuable thing."
As if noticing Alyssa's hesitation, the blond boy temporarily removed the blurring effect on his face and gave the girl a reassuring smile.
“However, if you care, Alyssa, how about giving me a little gift in return?”
"What's the return gift?"
The girl was startled and suddenly felt a little curious.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you after the operation is over—"
The azure eyes blinked, and Avis did not answer directly, but kept the girl in suspense for a while.
Then, led by Duke Carrot and three other ninth-level masters, everyone used magic to conceal their bodies and breath, and under the guidance of Avis, they approached Villa No. 26 silently from the air.
Since it was a secret operation, the number of people on this trip was small, but they were all high-level professionals. . ….….When Anvis, the Duke and others were preparing to start the operation, a simple temporary party was taking place in the basement of the villa.
The environment here has not been expanded, and the indoor area is only a few dozen square meters, which seems a bit cramped.
Fuzzy gray fog rolled over the walls, blocking the prying eyes of prophecy magic. A dark lamp was lit with a pale, cold flame, illuminating the room in a bleak white.
At the long silver table in the center of the room, seven black-robed men with the symbol of the Door in the Pupil sat on silver high-backed chairs on both sides.
There was only a crystal ball floating at the main seat of the long table. The owner of the seat had not arrived in person, but no one present cared about it.
The form of attendance is not important, what is important is the identity.
“…So, the original plan was only half successful. Although the small dream world was destroyed, the target’s clearance time was half a magic hour earlier than the previous record.
I managed to escape from the dream world at the last moment and was not dragged into the collapsing world."
"Since the target completely relied on its own strength to escape, it did not activate the passive power of destiny protection, so it is impossible to determine whether it is the prophecy star."
At this time, a man in black robe on the left side of the long table was narrating the process of this test.
After hearing his description, people had different reactions.
"I think the probability is very high, otherwise, he would not have been able to beat the historical record by a full half an hour."
"I don't think so. It's possible that one of the treasures given to him by Olivendi predicted the danger, and then he relied on a special life-saving trump card to force a breakthrough."
After everyone discussed for a while in silence, the crystal ball on the main seat glowed slightly, and a blurry figure with an unclear face raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"Okay, let's stop discussing this matter here. This is not our main topic today."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other quickly. After a brief silence, a person sitting on the right side of the long table spoke cautiously.
"Well, Lord Gray Mist, I heard that the continent is about to undergo a dramatic change recently?"
"Yes."
In the crystal ball, a figure slowly spoke.
"According to the trajectory of the stars, the state of the web of fate has reached a special critical point. A dramatic change that will sweep across the entire continent will come unstoppably."
"The emergence of constructs seems to be the starting point of all changes, but in fact, it is more like the rise of fate that made the Magic Council discover the ruins and allowed the concept of constructs to reappear in the world."
