Elizabeth knew that Bloody Tongue was merely an alias, not the organization's true name.
As far as she knew, although the organization had existed permanently, it had never possessed a relatively complete internal structure, much less a strict hierarchy. Its internal management relied largely on self-discipline. Aside from being forbidden from publicizing the organization's existence, its members could practically do whatever they wanted.
Such a loose structure had somehow survived for thousands of years. The reasons behind it, much like the things they did, were truly incomprehensible.
As far as Elizabeth knew, this organization had not only existed for a long time, but was also incredibly widespread, with people all over the world. If she had to define it, it could probably be called the world's oldest think tank.
Every member of the organization possessed extraordinary intelligence. Though they were proficient in all sorts of disciplines, including science, and could throw themselves into any religion without hesitation in pursuit of their goals, they ultimately treated all of it as mere tools. They used their true intelligence to become the sort of people most despised by the masses: skilled in debate, deceit, and political maneuvering—the so-called agents of upheaval.
When the world was at peace, they remained hidden. But whenever dynasties changed, civilizations shifted, and the world descended into chaos, this organization became most active. From tiny territories to mighty nations, their presence could be found everywhere, and they were always the most dazzling figures on the stage.
This organization had likewise originated in Ancient Egypt, though what exactly they had done there was now difficult to verify. However, due to their loose structure, they were exceptionally inclusive. Regardless of race or civilization, anyone could join them.
It seemed that from the very beginning, they had never considered race or nation.
