They are the branch of Destruction and Revelation Society in Vostok, responsible for the "research" and "collection" work in the northern region of this continent.
Their job content sounds decent - researching ancient myths and legends, collecting relevant cultural relics and information.
But everyone inside Destruction and Revelation Society knows that their job is not just "research" and "collection".
About half a month ago, "First Block" delivered a document sealed in a black metal tube and stamped with the highest authority seal of Destruction and Revelation Society to the head of the branch through special channels.
That is a method of summoning evil gods from other lands. It is said to come from an ancient document, which records a certain ritual that can transcend world barriers and summon powerful beings from other worlds to Yilisai.
They couldn't find the materials needed for the ceremony, so they put it aside and didn't dare to do it.
But recently, the organization did not know where they got the flesh and blood of the demon god and the remains of ancient gods' creations.
The quantity of those items was small, but the quality was so high that they were not even sure they were capable of handling it.
They began to prepare for the ceremony, obtained some rare magic materials from the black market through transactions, and seconded several high-level mages through channels within the organization to assist in the ceremony.
Finally, they prepared all the ritual materials, and after sacrificing all the sacrifices, they began the legendary summons.
But it's been a day now.
They waited from yesterday until today, from day to night, and from night to dawn.
The light of the magic circle dimmed and brightened, and the ashes of the sacrifice turned from hot to cold.
They gathered around the edge of the magic circle and looked at the empty ground. Nothing happened.
I haven't seen the gods yet.
Bai prepared such a big secret room, did he fail?
But where did the sacrifice go?
Could it be that the remains of the devil's flesh and blood and the gods' creations, those materials on which the entire branch's resources and manpower were devoted, were just reduced to ashes, with nothing in exchange?
"Perhaps the gods were transported randomly and are now somewhere on the mainland?" someone whispered.
Just as everyone was discussing and preparing to go out - the door to the secret room was opened. Instead of being slowly pushed open, it was suddenly pulled open to both sides.
The huge stone door slid open to both sides, revealing the corridor outside. In the corridor stood a row of people in white robes, with their hoods pulled down low, covering most of their faces.
Gray-white light shone in from the passage behind them, casting a gray shadow in the corridor.
"Alert!" the leader responded quickly.
His hand bounced off the hilt of the sword at his waist and shouted to the person behind him, "Ask for help from headquarters!"
"No need to bother." The man in white robe opposite spoke, his voice was calm and slow, as if he was reading a manuscript that had already been written.
"The people outside have already taken care of it."
Silence Society--The leader's face turned ugly at that moment.
His lips pursed into a line, and the vertical lines between his eyebrows were as deep as knife carvings. His fingers tightened on the hilt of the sword, and his nails dug into the rope of the hilt.
"You have something to do with me?"
The man in white robe said calmly. "Destruction and Revelation Society, your behavior violates Yilisai Civilization Treaty.
Summoning foreign evil gods without authorization, trying to interfere in the affairs of this world with external power, regardless of the possible chain reactions, and ignoring the clear provisions of the treaty on 'not introducing outside existence in any form' - coupled with the previous incident, we talked about it and decided that it would be best for you not to cause trouble again."
"We had a chat," he said easily.
The leader of Destruction and Revelation Society knew very well that the "communication" process would not be as lighthearted as the man in white robe said.
Silence Society has great influence in various countries, much larger than Destruction and Revelation Society.
They just caught Destruction and Revelation Society's handle this time, and it's not an ordinary handle - this is ironclad evidence, ironclad evidence that Destruction and Revelation Society cannot deny or cover up by any means.
These men in white robes now stood in front of him, using the tone of "we are informing you, not discussing with you", and sentenced the Destruction and Revelation Society Vostok branch to death.
"The leader will avenge us."
The leader said that he knew that there was no room for reconciliation and that those words were just harsh words before his death.
But he still said it because he wanted the people in white robes opposite to know that Destruction and Revelation Society would not just let it go. They were not just a branch of Vostok.
They have the support of the headquarters and the leadership of the chief, and their forces in other countries will avenge them.
The man in white robe was silent for a moment, then sneered.
"Heh."
Well, actually he was a little overwhelmed.
The man in white robe had just learned the news - the leader of Destruction and Revelation Society, the mysterious leader who had never shown his true face in front of anyone, and who had little information even in Silence Society's intelligence network, was dead.
Not missing, not hiding, but dying.
The people of Silence Society found his remains in Forbidden Land of Western Mine. From the magic power fluctuations and physical characteristics remaining on the remains, it can be determined that it is the real person and not a substitute.
After all, strength cannot be deceived, and they have no choice or ability to find a legendary strongman as a substitute.
The conclusion of the organization is that the guy awakened some ancient god, but the god got a little angry and killed them casually.
When he first received this information, he thought the intelligence officer was joking.
The result is true.
As a result, when he looked at the Destruction and Revelation Society members who were still shouting, "The leader will avenge us," he felt a little uncontrollable.
No.
The man in white robe coughed twice and swallowed back the smile that surged up from his stomach and almost squeezed out of his throat.
"Take it."
The silent figures behind the white-robed man who had been standing for a long time moved at the same time. Their movements were so fast that the members of Destruction and Revelation Society had not had time to raise their staffs.
The door closes behind you.
There were several short, muffled sounds in the corridor, and then silence.
Near the former Valerilus City.
Far away in the south, outside the ruins of the Vagrian Empire capital, the crowd was still in chaos. The moonlight leaked through the gaps in the clouds and spread a faint layer of silver frost on the ground.
Sangis stood on a crooked boulder that had been dug out of the ground, holding in his hand a volume of documents that he had just received from the Winged Dragon Cavalry.
That was delivered through magic.
She unfolded the document, scanned it quickly, and then frowned.
"Message from Marshal Reinhardt of Victoria -" Her voice was not high, but everyone present heard it, "The situation over there is under control."
After Evil God was defeated, those black monsters all stopped moving, then disintegrated themselves, turned into powder and dissipated.
Other countries have also sent similar reports one after another - Pegasus knights of Saint Junxi repelled those reptiles, Vostok old generals repelled giants, and Tower Mage Corps of Karelia repelled those black shadows."
Sangis Close the document.
"This disaster is over."
Valerirus stood not far away, looking at the ruins, and was silent for a long time.
Then he spoke, not loudly, but it made several nobles around him who were still whispering shut their mouths at the same time.
"Selivis, you go to the eastern border and check the situation of Forbidden Land.
Weitestan, you stay in the capital to help clear the ruins and resettle the refugees.
Sangis--"Valerirus paused, "You are responsible for contacting various countries to discuss cooperation matters."
"Yes." Several people answered at the same time.
Then Valerirus glanced at the open space aside... That Dragon God left with the ball of light and a few humans...
