Large Crimson Realm Denizen Group

As Alastor finished speaking, all other sounds in the dimly lit room, except for Shana's rhythmic breathing, disappeared.

Fang Li remained silent.

It's not that Alastor's proposal was abrupt, but rather that such a development was simply a matter of course.

After all, the attitude that Shudenan showed towards the Reiji Maigo at that time had already explained everything.

"That ' The Shaper ' has always been a maverick among the Crimson King. He enjoys accepting commissions from his 'disciples' and takes pleasure in bodyguarding. Given this kind of Demon Lord's behavior, his attitude towards Reiji Maigo has already gone beyond the norm."

Alastor stated, "Although the Reiji Maigo is the most coveted of treasures among treasures, every Crimson Realm Denizens 'The Shaper joy at that moment still exceeded what one would expect when facing a Treasure Tool. Therefore, there must be some other story behind this."

Alastor's guess was almost entirely correct.

That's right.

There must be some hidden story behind this.

Otherwise, if a renowned Demon Lord from the old generation truly only wanted to obtain a Treasure Tool for his own sake, he would certainly not have chosen to retreat before he had even exerted all his strength, or even when he had gained an absolute advantage in the battle.

Furthermore, there must be some reason behind Shudenan's overly persistent attitude.

"Moreover, this reason must be very important."

Alastor said to Fang Li, "I think that Shudenan will definitely not give up so easily and will definitely come back to take the Reiji Maigo again. At that time, with your strength alone, it will be absolutely impossible to protect the Reiji Maigo."

There was a reason why Alastor said that.

"After all, that ' The Shaper ' is the Demon Lord who belongs to the ' Bal Masqué.'"

Fang Li's eyes flickered slightly.

————"Bal Masqué".

That was a large group of Crimson Realm Denizens.

Although most Crimson Realm Denizens come to the Real World world from the Crimson World do so for their own desires and want to do whatever they want in this world, and are therefore unlikely to form cliques, not all Crimson Realm Denizens are like that.

The "Bal Masqué" is a group that brings together a large number of Crimson Realm Denizens.

It's not just ordinary apostles; a considerable number of Royal Capital belong to this group. Its scale is so large that it can even be confronted by all Flame Haze Warrior.

Shudenan, whose name is "The Shaper", is actually one of the Demon Lord of the "Bal Masqué".

Moreover, he was one of the three Demon Lord, whose status was second only to the Alliance Leader of the ruling group, and who was known as the "Three Pillars".

"Ever since the Alliance Leader of the ' Bal Masqué ' disappeared, ' The Shaper ' has also maintained a distant relationship with the ' Bal Masqué,' neglecting the organization's operations and wandering solely for his own hobbies, always known as a good-for-nothing demon Demon Lord."

Alastor said in a somewhat serious tone, "However, it cannot be denied that this Demon Lord has not completely broken away from the large apostle group of ' Bal Masqué.'"

In other words, the completely unequal attitude that Shudenan showed when he met the Reiji Maigo was most likely because it was not his own desire, but the desire of the "Bal Masqué" to which he belonged.

The people targeting the Reiji Maigo may not be Shudenan alone, but rather the entire Apostle Group to which he belongs.

"If that's the case, things will become very troublesome," Alastor said. "Next time, if they attack again, it's very likely that the entire ' Bal Masqué ' will come together, instead of ' The Shaper ' alone."

That's why Alastor said that Fang Li alone was no match for him.

If dealing with even one "The Shaper" is so difficult, let alone dealing with the entire "Bal Masqué".

It's important to know that the "Bal Masqué" is home to quite a few Demon Lord, including Three Pillars of the state on par with "The Shaper." Their terrifying power is beyond description.

"In this way, it's not very safe for you to keep the Reiji Maigo by yourself," Alastor said after carefully choosing his words. "If we were to handle it, we might be able to get help from the other Flame Haze Warrior."

Even Alastor said something like that, which shows that this is indeed not a problem that can be solved by one or two people alone.

Naturally, Fang Li was also aware of this matter.

"I'll only ask you one question."

Fang Li raised this question.

"If this were handed over to you, what do you think would be the best way to handle it?"

Upon hearing this, Alastor fell silent, seemingly deep in thought.

Then Alastor said, "The best way is to destroy the Reiji Maigo. That way, whatever kind of conspiracy it is, it will all vanish."

This is indeed the best way to handle it.

Although the Reiji Maigo is a treasure among treasures and extremely precious, it is only useful to Crimson Realm Denizens who need the Power of Existence. For Flame Haze Warrior, it is just a decoration with extremely limited uses, otherwise it would not be only at the Fourth Level.

Therefore, no one except the Crimson Realm Denizens would feel sorry about destroying such a Treasure Tool.

However, Fang Li directly rejected this approach.

"If I wanted to destroy it, I could have done it long ago. Why would I need to wait for you to show up?"

In any case, Fang Li knew something about the secret of the Reiji Maigo, and he knew the enormous butterfly effect that would be caused if it were destroyed.

Not to mention, the Reiji Maigo itself is practically useless to Fang Li, but when combined with the effect of Ion Spark, it still has a significant role to play.

This is a reward that Fang Li finally managed to draw. Who would want to destroy it without thinking?

Once they're out of this world, no matter how big the secret of the Reiji Maigo, it won't affect Fang Li, who is the Fang Li of the Main God Envoy.

"I'll consider this my property for now, and I'll decide how to deal with it myself."

Therefore, Fang Li directly drew this conclusion.

"If you don't want to get involved in this mess, you'd better leave this city as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Alastor said nothing more.

Fang Li smiled slightly, glanced at Shana was sleeping soundly with her head resting on the edge of the bed, closed his eyes as well, adjusted his breathing, and fell asleep.

Night passed quietly.
