Victor was very satisfied with the positive attitude of Wilder and others.

"Very good! What happened in the North Territory, I want to come and you have also heard some..."

Victor asked in a deep voice, "I want to learn more about the eternal temple and the information of the nobles, as well as the major events that have occurred in Sainte-Neubourg in the recent period."

The mage apprentices looked at each other, not that Victor's question was difficult to answer, but that it was too simple! Without any hesitation, everyone said what they knew.

"The head of the Temple of Eternity is called Olbas, he is a preparatory cardinal, a high priest..."

"As the spokesperson of the Temple of Eternity in the North, Olbas can mobilize any priest in the entire North..."

"..."

"The nobles in Saint-Neubourg are divided into two parts: the royal family represented by the Rodney family, and the temple group headed by the Gilbert family..."

"The royal faction was suppressed by the temple, both overtly and secretly... It is said that the eldest daughter of the Rodney family and the third-in-line heir of the Saint-Na royal family, His Royal Highness Cecilia has been secretly placed under house arrest...

"..."

"Recently, the number of priests in the city has gradually increased..."

"... The second'wolf tide' broke out, and the small and medium-sized towns in the north suffered heavy losses..."

"..."

Time is passing fast, and the secret party is drawing to a close.

In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, the apprentices of the mage left the basement one after another with a reluctant mood.

When Victor was about to leave, Wilder followed closely.

"Mr. Victor, can I take up some of your precious time?"

"Yes! We said as we walked..."

Victor did not reject the proposal of the wizard apprentice Wilder.

The two walked out of the second-story villa and walked silently in the dark.

"Master Victor..."

Wilder's whisper broke the silence of the night, "Please forgive me for disturbing me!"

"This map is what I found from my parents' relics... I suspect that the death of my parents is directly related to it..."

With that said, Wilder briefly told Victor about his life experience.

"Master Victor, according to the information I searched for..."

Wilder said in an excited tone: "This map records information about an ancient arcane empire..."

"remains?"

Vik, who flipped through the map scroll, narrowed his eyes, "Are you sure it is the remains of the ancient Nethirel Empire?"

"I confirm!"

Wilder replied categorically: "You said, my lord, I have sought help from other apprentices and even junior mages, but when the expedition arrived at the site of the ruins, we were only able to enter the first floor of the ruins. …"

"Master Victor, I don't want any gains from the ruins, as long as you help me find out the cause of my parents' death!"

After thinking slightly, Victor accepted the matter of the expedition ruins.

"Yes! However, I still have an urgent thing to do, so the time to go to the ruins will not be fast..."

Hearing Victor agree to his request, Wilder said repeatedly: "It's okay, it doesn't matter... As long as you agree, your lord, everything is easy to say!"

Through the "all-seeing eye", Victor can display the detected physical state of Wilder in the form of data:

"Heartbeat data is normal..."

"The pupil diffusive state is normal..."

"The secretion of the adrenal glands is normal..."

"The blood flow rate is normal..."

"It can be determined that the humanoid creature (Wild) in front of me is not lying."

After making the decision, Victor didn't talk too much with Wilder, and after a few greetings, the two separated.

Three days later, in the commercial area, Wap Tavern.

Viktor, who used the spell to change his appearance under the effect of the zero-ring spell provided by Wilder and others, has changed his appearance into the image of a middle-aged man with blond, blue eyes and white skin.

At this time, Victor, who was sitting at the table, was enjoying the delicious food while thinking in his heart.

"In the past few days, judging from the information collected by the Fyadi Brotherhood and the information provided by Wilder and others, the Temple of Eternity has noticed the secret contact between the Magic Society and the Northland Alliance... If it was not for the purpose of stabilizing the hearts of the people. , To maintain the order in the North, the temple may have taken the royal nobles long ago!"

Thinking of this, Victor put down his knife and fork and wiped his mouth with a napkin.

"According to the information, the representative of the royal family, Lord Rodney, should be the nobleman who is close to the Magic Society... Well, I can communicate with the earl privately through the relationship between Cecilia and Old Locke. In this case, my mission is also It's eyebrows."

"However, the problem now is... Even if the covenant is signed with these nobles, I am afraid it will be difficult to wipe out the defensive temple forces in one fell swoop. Moreover, the main force of the Magic Society is working with the crusade army of the temple in the'long road hub'. Lisiran was in a confrontation, and he couldn't allocate more people to assist these northern nobles..."

"Faced with this situation, what should we do?"

Victor thought about it, and he had no good ideas, so he had to pass these situations back to Skysity through a one-time ultra-long-distance communication array.

"I should leave it to those old foxes..." Victor thought.

Over the city of Carter, the war fortress "Skasiti".

The Standing Council of the Magic Society is being held in the control center of the Tower of Babel, and the high-ranking mages and arcanists are discussing the intelligence information sent back by Victor about the situation in St. Naborg with red ears.

"Huh! I said long ago, those nobles are unreliable..."

Felton, the Star Eye, roared in a low voice, "I wasted so much of our time, and it ended up empty!"

"Can't say that..."

Elemental Control Winnie Murphy said with relief: "As long as the covenant is signed, the nobles of the'Northland Alliance' can at least help us to involve part of the power of the temple..."

"We may have a better choice."

Sleeper's tutor Dick Lipod said in a low voice: "According to Victor's intelligence, the core of the power of the Northern Temple lies in one person-the preparation cardinal Albas! If we can get rid of it If it does, it will deal a heavy blow to the temple!"

"This is not an easy task!"

Element Master frowned, "In the church of the temple, a preparatory cardinal can fully display the power of a legendary mage..."

"This is easy! We can do it like this..."
