Chapter 299: The Ninth Prince
"I understand."
Avis nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
If you think about it carefully, this is actually not difficult to understand.
The Duke didn't want her to marry, probably because of her special background.
Fiona's origins remain a mystery. Little Anvis in his previous life did not know this, and the Duke never told him.
However, considering her astonishing blood concentration, it is most likely the product of some forbidden magical experiment.
The royal family designated a marriage with Fiona, most likely because they had received some secret intelligence about her and wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
It can test the loyalty of the Olivendi family, and also find out if she is related to the 'star' previously prophesied.
Under normal circumstances, as one of the four major ducal families in the empire, the Olivendi family had no reason to refuse the royal family's marriage request.
But if they really refused, it would mean that the Olivendi family probably knew something.
"Very good. Someone will deliver your compensation to you later."
After receiving Anvis's reply, Duke Carrot nodded with satisfaction, his expression relaxed, as if he had let go of a worry.
"I don't need resource compensation for now. Father, do you have time on your schedule for the 23rd of the Frozen Month?"
However, Anvis shook his head slightly and expressed his opinion on the compensation mentioned by the Duke.
"The twenty-third of the Frozen Moon?"
The Duke thought about it for a moment and shook his head slightly.
"No special arrangements, what do you want to do, Anvis?"
"I would like to borrow your power to help me capture a special magical beast. Its strength should be around level seven."
Avis smiled slightly and spread his hands.
Fiona had already gotten the initial summons, and now it was his turn.
It just so happens that a special magical beast that he has long had his eye on will appear shortly after the meteorite falls.
"It's a magical beast of about level seven. The guards I assigned to you are enough to capture it, right? Is it necessary to explain it to me in person?"
A hint of doubt flashed across his pale blue eyes, and Duke Carrot asked a little puzzled.
"That monster has a special power. Please help just in case, to prevent it from escaping through special means."
Avis explained carefully.
"In that case, Anvis, I can help."
After thinking about it, the Duke nodded and agreed to Anvis' request.
"Anything else?"
"There is indeed one more thing, father. What is the result of the investigation into the ruins that fell in the Magna Province of the Empire half a month ago?"
Avis nodded.
"Also, I heard that due to the fall of the ruins, a large number of foreign professionals have poured in, causing the empire to become very chaotic. I wonder what the current situation in the province of Karlas is like?"
"Don't worry about that, Anvis. Although the current situation is a little unstable, the strength of our family is enough to cope with all challenges!"
In response to Anvis' question, Duke Carrot spoke with great confidence.
"As for the ruins, we are also trying to crack it, but the speed is slow because it is too dangerous. It may take several years to completely crack it."
"In that case, father, have you ever thought about those foreigners? I think they would be very suitable to send ..."
After thinking about it, Avis changed his statement to a more euphemistic one.
"…in charge of exploring the ruins."
In the previous life, due to the high danger of the ruins, the major forces initially decided to work together to crack it. However, since no one dared to explore inside, there was a serious lack of internal information, and the cracking progress was very slow.
Furthermore, all kinds of remotely controlled golem avatars and other objects would instantly lose contact as soon as they entered a certain depth in the ruins. They could no longer be controlled, nor could they transmit any information.
After about a month, the major forces finally found the most suitable explorers - players.
Based on their ability to be resurrected infinitely, by equipping them with advanced construct armor, you can get elite investigators who are not afraid of death.
For the players, that city is equivalent to a very dangerous top-level dungeon. Even if you fail to clear it, there are still very generous game rewards.
There are always some players who are not afraid of death and take risks for high rewards.
"You mean, let these foreigners go to collect intelligence from inside the ruins?"
The Duke glanced at Anvis, his expression not surprised.
"Indeed, someone has proposed this idea, and we are also testing its feasibility. What do you think about it?"
Anvis smiled.
"You know, father, I have established a foreign force. If possible, I think this task can be handed over to them." . ….….After ending the communication with Duke Carrot, Anvis closed the crystal ball.
Regarding arranging players to explore the ruins, the Duke finally did not give him a definite answer, but just said that he needed to think about it.
However, Avis believes it is only a matter of time.
As for the Duke's request, he was asked to stay by Fiona's side temporarily to block the Ninth Prince's possible pursuit of Fiona.
In Anvis's opinion, things could actually be done even better.
He knew a lot about the Ninth Prince, whom he had not met in this life.
Lanno Lo Augustin, beneath his deceptively fragile appearance, possesses genius strategy and foresight that is inconsistent with his age.
He is extremely decisive and once he makes a decision, he will achieve his goal at all costs.
Moreover, Prince Lanno was a rare reformist among many princes. He firmly supported the development of magic constructs, even if it did not seem to benefit him at all.
In his previous life, when the empire was in complete chaos, this prince demonstrated astonishingly powerful military strength and also received the support of ninth-level strongmen.
Along with the First Prince and the Fourth Princess, he is known as one of the three strongest princes.
After carefully recalling his style of doing things, Anvis decided to take the initiative and meet with the Ninth Prince.
However, he did not choose to formally submit an invitation letter, but instead conveyed a verbal message, hoping to meet with him.
Three days later, in an ordinary-looking second-level residence of the academy, Anvis met the not-yet-famous Ninth Prince.
When Anvis entered the room, the prince was standing in the living room of the residence, under an oil painting depicting a battle between a dragon and a spellcaster, with his back to the main door of the living room, seemingly admiring the painting.
Hearing the sound of Avis coming in, he turned around and nodded to Avis with a perfectly polite smile.
"Welcome, Mr. Olivendi."
Prince Lannuo has a surprisingly handsome appearance, with a special eye color that is a blend of blue and purple, and soft dark purple hair that reaches his ears.
Even Avis had to admit that he was almost half as handsome as himself.
