However, just as the carriage left Empress Borough, it was attacked by "terrorists" with guns. Although the two men were seriously injured, their lives were not in danger.

Given such a terrible incident, it was naturally impossible to attend the Memorial Service.

On the afternoon of November 20, 1347, ten minutes after Altair Sheffield was attacked, all the forces in Bexland were shocked and sent out spies to investigate.

Half an hour later, the official forces, led by MI9, arrested the planners and participants in the attack.

What is shocking is that these people include not only fanatics from the Republic of Intis and embassy members, but also people from the Loen Kingdom who are involved and advising them.

After finishing this page, Altair turned to the next, preparing to write someone else's "script".

On the evening of November 16, 1347, inside the Intis Embassy, Beckland Jean Madan, perhaps to celebrate his victory, had an early celebratory drink.

He believed himself to be a brilliant "Conspirer," having managed to alienate the people of Loen from their Royal Family with just a few clever tricks, and that he would soon be able to complete his role.

Although he was an ambassador, he did not feel regret or sorrow for the deaths of those few Commoner.

He was even angry that the deaths of those Commoner hadn't been horribly tragic enough.

He thought to himself, "Why couldn't you have died a more gruesome death?"

"The more gruesome your deaths, the more I can make a big deal out of this."

He wouldn't be saddened by the blow to Intis's intelligence organization, because its foundation remained intact.

On November 17, 1347, Beckland Jean Madin attended a press conference as usual, gave an interview to reporters, and repeatedly emphasized the Error that Altair Sheffield should recognize, and appealed to the people of both countries not to affect the normal diplomatic relations between the two countries because of personal actions.

However, perhaps it was because of this appeal that the Intis people, who had always lived at the bottom of society in Bexland, became even angrier and more irritable.

They all believed that since it was their own people being persecuted, why were the Loen people not expressing any gratitude?

After making several inquiries, these Intis fanatics finally obtained the address of Altair Sheffield Family.

However, Empress Borough has an extremely high level of security, so they currently have nowhere to start.

The anger could not be quelled.

On the afternoon of November 18, 1347, after receiving a letter from King His Majesty George III, Altair Sheffield agreed to the police department's suggestion to go to the Intis Embassy to attend this bizarre Memorial Service.

On the evening of November 18, 1347, after writing the letter, Altair Sheffield sent it to the Intis Embassy, explaining that she intended to attend a "Memorial Service" the day after tomorrow.

Upon receiving this letter, Ambassador Beckland Jean Madden of Intis drank another celebratory drink and, in a moment of unconsciousness, revealed the route of the Altair Sheffield chassis.

The embassy staff, misled and driven by self-interest, readily traded this information to Intis fanatics in Bexland.

The attack was thus brought to a satisfactory conclusion.

After turning to the next page, Altair began to describe the subsequent effects.

On the morning of November 21, 1347, prominent newspapers such as the Tussock Newspaper and the Bexland Gazette reported that Altair Sheffield had submitted a petition to the King before the incident escalated, clearly stating evidence that he was permitted to attend the Memorial Service.

Once this report was published, the ignorant public, like weather vanes, swayed with the wind, and Altair Sheffield's reputation was instantly reversed, transforming her from a selfish person condemned by the public into a kind-hearted noble lady.

As the afternoon approached, after the attackers were exposed by MI9, all levels of society in Loen believed that this was a conspiracy by the Intis, who had been stirring up trouble and preparing to start a war.

On the evening of November 25, 1347, news of what had just North Continent suddenly spread South Continent.

After learning of this, high-ranking officials from various countries, though harboring doubts, remained on guard.

The South Continent, which had just calmed down, has once again become extremely dangerous, like a powder keg, ready to explode from within at the slightest spark.

At this moment, a large number of Spectator suddenly appeared, using their abilities to influence the thoughts and emotions of the crowd, gradually turning them into anger, fear, and irritability.

Thus, on November 28, 1347, at dawn on the South Continent, a meaningless war suddenly broke out on the borders of various colonies.

Adam took the notebook, read the story in his hand, and nodded slightly, saying, "It's barely plausible."

Upon hearing this, Altair Sheffield rolled his eyes at him helplessly, not wanting to answer the question.

After Adam put down his notebook, he continued, "When you advanced to ' Dreamwalker,' you also needed to complete a ritual, right?"

After giving an "hmm," Altair nodded and asked, "Do you know where there are spirit-headed bird demons in the Spirit Realm?"

"Of course," Adam nodded slightly, adding, "If you want to advance now, I can take you there immediately."

"I can even give you the materials needed for the ' Scarlet Scholar ' Advancement Ritual."

"And what's the price?" Altair countered.

Adam shook his head and replied, "No need. Consider it payment for your injury."

"You still frighten me now; I owe you so much," Altair thought to himself.

After thinking it over, she asked curiously, "What do you mean by speaking too slowly? Do you have something you need me, in my High Sequence, to do?"

Adam nodded and replied, "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, Altair's consciousness left the Corpse Cathedral and returned to reality.

Looking at the letters beside her, she could only shake her head helplessly.

In the evening, after Vivian returned, Altair explained to her the upcoming attacks.

Vivian didn't need to feel angry about this, because she knew that as long as this matter was completed, she would soon be able to finish her role and advance to the next level.

On November 20, 1347, the attack occurred exactly as Altair had planned.

Both injured individuals recovered completely on the same day after receiving a medical examination.

Because these non-fatal wounds are easily recovered from by Beyonder of their Sequence.

The next morning, just after Altair had breakfast, Adam brought her the items she needed.
