Chapter 333: Message from Zero:
The task list of "Mysterious Era" is arranged in ascending and descending order according to the level and importance of the tasks.
The higher the level, the more important the task to be completed, the higher the position. However, when the task list is not opened, the default area of the panel is only enough to display the top two or three items.
Looking at the introductions to the first two tasks, Avis frowned secretly in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
The people of the Door in the Pupil are planning to secretly win over the marquis of the empire and cause trouble in the ruins?
Moreover, judging from the second half of the first mission, "Get the key things in the ruins before the four major families of the empire", the people of the Gate in the Eyes should have been determined, and there are still problems in the ruins.
Since he didn't click on it, Avis couldn't see the task reward or the specific completion progress. But just the task description alone gave him enough information.
Because of him, the original trajectory of the web of fate has deviated a lot, gradually moving in a new direction. However, at present, some major events seem to still be developing in the direction of the previous life.
As for the second task... now you are also a mole, are you surprised?
"Well, Mr. Ling, what brings you to such a great lengths to come to me at this hour of night?"
After carefully examining Zero's appearance that looked like an ordinary student, Avis finally spoke again, his tone unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.
It was obvious that the other party had changed his appearance in some way. And the method was very sophisticated, even he couldn't see it at first glance.
Fortunately, he had seen the photo of Zero's game character on the Silver Blue Club's official website, and he did not look like this.
"Nothing, but when I met with Marquis Baman before, I heard from His Excellency that you have outstanding talent, no less than the former Duke of Karlas."
Not realizing he had been seen, Zero showed a polite smile and flattered Avis calmly.
This is one of the skills of language negotiation. 'Unintentionally' revealing that you have dealings with some other important person can often leave a profound impression in the other person's mind.
"Uncle Barman?"
Sure enough, after hearing what Zero said, Avis's expression softened a little.
In the background story of the game, Marquis Baman is a person who is closer to Olivendi. Obviously, before coming here, Zero has done his homework.
“That’s right, so I hope to cooperate with you. As a token of my sincerity, I also brought you a special secret message.
It's about the meteorite ruins that your academy has chosen as the venue for the competition in three days."
Having said that, Zero calmly threw out the bait.
This is his basic operation. For these descendants of great nobles who have not gone through the rite of passage, he mainly tries to win them over and encourage them to cooperate.
Different from the nobles who have passed the coming-of-age ceremony and obtained their own territories, the descendants of these great nobles who have no real power and weak subordinates usually have more demands.
In other words, it is easier to trigger tasks, and the level of the tasks is often not too high or too low, and the rewards are particularly generous, which is suitable for sharing with professional players in the club.
Yes, what he is doing now is actually to discover high-value tasks for the club to the maximum extent possible.
"Secret information related to the ruins?"
Although his tone was still cold, there was a hint of movement in Avis' eyes, as if he had some interest in what Zero said.
"Sir Anvis, we are just standing in front of the door and talking like this. Why don't you invite me in and sit down?"
Ling suddenly stopped talking and just looked at Avis with a smile.
“…”
Avis frowned slightly and looked at Zero who looked fearless in front of him. After a moment of silence, he suddenly laughed.
"Of course not. Please come in, Mr. Zero."
Afterwards, the two entered the reception room of the residence one after another.
"Please take a seat and help yourself to whatever you would like to drink."
In the soft golden light of the crystal chandelier, Avis waved his hand casually, and suddenly all kinds of magic drinks appeared on the pearl wood coffee table.
"Thank you for your hospitality, sir."
Ling didn't hesitate to sit down on the sofa, picked up the only cup of the most valuable Venus raspberry juice and drank it in one gulp, and the upgrade prompt appeared directly on the back panel.
"Okay, let's get down to business. I think you should know that the ruins have been explored by many ninth-rank crowns."
As he spoke, Zero put the slender goblet in his hand back on the tray and leaned lazily on the sofa.
“But unfortunately, your majesties have not searched thoroughly, and some of the most crucial things are still sleeping at the bottom of the ruins, waiting for the moment to reappear.
This time, the Pamir College competition is actually to utilize the students’ presence and inspire them.”
"If this is the information you want to talk about, then unfortunately, I have already learned about this matter through family channels."
Sitting opposite Zero, Avis shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands slightly, showing that he didn't care.
In fact, the reason for this temporary change of venue has already been passed back to the family.
The high-ranking officials of the Empire also noticed the problem with the ruins through the changes in the Web of Destiny. They suspected that there might be some highly hidden things in the ruins that would only appear if certain triggering conditions were met.
For example, professionals with strength below a certain level, or professionals with some special bloodline are required to enter.
The students of Pamir Academy, which brings together most of the geniuses, evildoers, and children of destiny in the entire empire, are just right for triggering hidden conditions.
Because the relic represented such an important thing, after several heated debates, everyone on the jury finally voted unanimously in favor of it.
Yes, this can be dangerous for students, but it also represents an unimaginable opportunity.
But after careful analysis, the top leaders of the empire discovered that due to the impact of the previous beast tide, the protection systems in the ruins had basically been triggered, and the current level of danger had been reduced to an acceptable range.
What's more, due to danger considerations, this so-called college competition will be secretly accompanied and protected by multiple ninth-level professionals, which can fully guarantee that the students will not really be in danger of their lives.
"...That's right. After all, the Olivendi family is known as the 'Crystal Bird that Never Falls'. It's only natural that they should be the first to receive this news."
After listening to Avis' words, Ling nodded, and then suddenly changed the subject.
"Then what if I were to tell you that more than five marquises are conspiring to join forces in secret, preparing to obtain the secret treasures in the ruins before the four major families when the hidden things in the ruins are triggered?"
I was stuck last night, so this chapter is to make up for yesterday's
