Hadara'i was somewhat surprised by the contents of the letter.
Given the Church's scale, there was no need for them to target Wu Heng so aggressively.
Headquarters had even been considering mediating the conflict between the two sides. Now, it seemed more serious than expected.
"Anything else?" Hadara'i continued.
The deputy continued, "The Church's Investigation Team has already set out in advance. The Association's team can make its own way to Treasure Island."
Hadara'i's expression grew even more solemn.
It would take several days for a letter to reach headquarters from the Church. That meant the Church's team had set out before they sent the letter.
As Hadara'i headed outside, he said, "Notify the other leaders. Have them come for a meeting."
"Yes!"
The guards on both sides of the corridor saluted as Lilith strode forward.
She arrived outside the meeting room.
The guards stationed on either side immediately opened the doors.
Inside the brightly lit hall, three leaders were already seated.
After the attendants served tea, they withdrew and the doors closed.
Hadara'i, the Sword of Justice, spoke directly. "We have just received a letter from the Church."
At those words, the others all frowned.
So today's matter was still about the Church and Wu Heng.
No one knew when it had started, but leader meetings had become so frequent, and every single one was related to Wu Heng.
No one spoke. The Sword of Justice continued, "The Church suspects Wu Heng of conducting necromantic experiments on Treasure Island. They demand that the Association order him to cooperate with their investigation. Their Investigation Team has already set out in advance."
The others narrowed their eyes.
Bringing up necromantic experiments at a time like this made it highly suspicious that they were targeting Wu Heng.
The hall fell quiet
